But what is this preliminary injunction all about?
Frod, you remind me of those idiots who went around a couple of years ago holding public rallies and protests, burning copies of some movie they thought was sacriligious. Every time I found someone who was taking part in that cause, I asked them if they'd seen the movie. Not one of the people I asked had seen it. In fact, most of them took umbrage at the suggestion.
Why did I call Carey back in May? Well, for one, I just really wanted to talk to the lady who'd planned and executed the great escape for her sons. For another, I'd read something about some photos of one of the facilities having been taken by a PI. Different people were saying different things, so I asked everybody what they thought or knew, and Carey was one of those people.
What is this cause you're so sure Carey is out to destroy, Frod? If you look back to the beginning of this whole brawl, you may find it's a lot more complicated than you seem to think.
You think Carey's the devil because she got paid a chunk of change for some data. Odds are pretty good that WWASP would have gotten the data by subpoena anyway. The people making the most noise about this heinous crime get paid many times that amount, not for supplying data relavent to a lawsuit (which they're also doing; that's how the discovery process works), but for arranging to kidnap real, live human beings from their beds at night. To my mind, that's just not a cause worth celebrating or protecting.
And what's in that data? Obviously, none of these people who want so badly for all of us to take their word for everything is willing to give us copies. How come? Wouldn't it just settle a lot of arguments and prove, once and for all, who's being truthful if we could all just see for ourselves what they're arguing about and draw our own conclusions?
Here's another interesting question for you to mull over. Who started up this war again the other day? Who was the anon poster who was an eye witness to the deposition? I honestly don't know. If I wanted to find out for sure, I would have to either bring some legal action or commit a crime to find out. Do you know where your information is coming from? Why are you so ready to believe this anonymous person's take on everything and completely unwilling to get all sides of the story? I suspect it's that you just need for this to be a simple, black and white issue with two dimentional good guys and bad guys. But it's just not that simple, Frod. Sorry. I didn't make it so, it just is what it is.
Now, as to Carey having hurt a lot of people other than PURE, I don't know 1) if that's true or 2) that she really had any choice. It was a la plata o el plomo ultimatum.
Honestly, I think a lot of people have fucked up in a major way here. Last May, Carey was trying to get the word out that PURE was not what they claimed to be. They weren't working to save kids from being dissapeared into private gulags. They work to divert kids into the private gulags that pay them. I think that was the primary reason why Carey got banned from the Trekers' list and why the Trekers followed her over here and started this whole smear campaign. You've fallen for it, hook, line and sinker.
I do not agree with Carey on everything. I found that out by discussing real issues with her, right here in these public forums, right in front of God and everybody! It's a really effective means of finding out what people think. You should try it sometime. It really, really works!
Homeschool is self regulating. The school board is not going to have illiterate useless people living in their homes forever if they don't have a working education policy.
