The Question and Answer Board

"If it's a lie, refute it."

So, is it your position that if a COB posts a lie, then the victim should have the ability to refute it?

If this is your position, then I should have the ability to refute statements made by Jenna on her thread in reference to me and have MY posts LEFT STANDING instead of being deleted. Tim Luke should also have that ability as should Lola and David Smith , etc... except that Tim Luke says he has been banned. It is not enough for the COB to delete her own post hours or days after making it in a POSSIBLE attempt to cover her tracks for whatever reason. The victim should still have the right to respond.

The COB should not be able to conduct herself one way and then demand everyone else stay "on topic".

And as JXM so aptly put it. (paraphrased)..just because person A says something about person B does not mean that person B has the right to come up with the wildest fantasies about person C and state them as fact.(.okay..so I added a couple of extra words there, JXM ))


There is an interesting concept in the law concerning what can be construed from the fact that a person doesn't refute an allegation. The general populace might think that someone isnt refuting an accusation but in reality ..all that has happened is that the tyrannical COB refused to let them respond.




A very simple example of Jenna's activity would be:
Jenna stating IT IS PROVEN that so and so and such and such..

.If the person knows it is a lie they should have the ability to respond . And certainly if this adminstration knows something is a lie..such as IT IS PROVEN THAT LOLA IS LISA , then Lola or Lisa should have the ability to respond. What if Lisa is a nefarious Drug Queen Pin and part of a Columbian high powered drug ring.. known in some circles but Lola doesn't know that is her reputation.....I don't think Lola would want to be associated with that.....and in fact..harm could come to Lola because of people thinking she is associated with that group. You may think that is far fetched...but those things do happen and murder and mayhem is common in this world. Then the COB posts personal information about Lola and now people know how to get her....

Farfetched?, Maybe
But do some extrapolation and then talk to some prosecutors and cops in New York to find out what can happen to people. What if some crazy whacko has a vendetta against Lisa but now sees that Lola is Lisa and the COB posts Lola's personal information...Oh yeah, something could happen to Lola or her family.

Then there is the whole thing that happened on SI with the abortion saga. Anyone witnessing it surely understands that people were traumatically effected by it.

Great harm can come to people because of words written on a message board.




This administration knows that Lola is not Lisa and knows that it can't be proven that Lola is Lisa. It has always struck me as odd that the administration would knowingly allow someone to make statements that can't be true and that they know aren't true... but not give the victims the ability to respond to the statements of fact.

As I have repeatedly stated ad nauseam, Jenna's actions on this site exemplify the problems associated with the COB concept. It only need be extrapolated
