That’s what happens when you threaten to sue me

If the Chatham Coalition’s vice-chairman John Hammond was placed in “time out” on the bulletin board, it is not because of his political views.

This is a recurring habit of Mr. Hammond and his Chatham Coalition minions. In fact, this election season, Mr Hammond reminded me that he had the financial resources to go through his threat of a law suit.

Gene,
You are right I’ve come into a substantial amount of inheritance that I don’t need. Publish only truthful facts that you can document in a court of law for anything you publish on your bulletin board about me. Then you will be ok. You know the best defense of libel is the truth.  Often short on your BS board.
John

I guess I am fortunate to have saved the “not for public view” emails from Mr. Voller, Mr. Hammond and Mr. Starkweather. Should any of them opt to take me to court, it might make for an interesting “discovery” stage.

If John Hammond, Vice Chairman of the Chatham Coalition, wants to be heard, he has a couple of options –

1) Don’t threaten BBS administrators with lawsuits

or

2) Start his own bulletin board.
