    Fortunately we don't live in Cuba and we enjoy the rights that the First Amendment affords.

    I was monitoring and not contributing for a while but this is too much. OK Catherine, I'll take you up on your challenge/threat. Go ahead hire a lawyer, file a lawsuit, get a court order to identify my ISP ID from google, and prove that I actually am the sole user of that ISP ID and did indeed libel you personally. After you have done all of that and gotten a judgment against me, try to collect. For all you know the only thing in my name is a car which could be worth 4500 as a cash for clunker trade in and a house with an upside-down mortgage. If you are going to sue someone, go ahead and do it. Don't try to threaten people who use their rights. You could get sued for that. Like they say, talk is cheap. You just don't want speech to be free.

    Criticism of Maximum Leader Gorman, Comrade Shevitz and any other members of the Central Cadre will be viewed with extreme disfavor by the Party and the proper measures will be taken.

    Catherine-It is interesting to read your blogs.

    You are a strongly opinionated individual (nothing wrong with that), but possess zero tolerance for divergent opinions. For the most part, prior to the last election, this blog was of one mind. It is my understanding that this blog came about as a result of opposition to the TIF and then later battled the tax referendum.

    Individuals on the blog now express diverse opinions, frequently exchanging in an interesting and informative back and forth. However, your responses to individuals of differing opinions are usually nasty and frankly, often quite vile. On the blog you show yourself to be an extremely intolerant individual. You excoriate others about their spelling or typos, ignoring your own. You seem incapable of anyone else having a differing view of local government. While you wrote scathing comments about previous trustees, you go crazy when others express similar feelings about the conduct of the RCA.

    Now veiled threats about suing anonymous bloggers who think differently from you??? Seriously?? Et tu Lex Cordis?
