Opinions on Roscoe White story?

[Peter Lemkin]

No one [founders or regulars] are looking for more time and trouble of vetting posts, I'm sure. I have enough problems keeping my life literally above water and would refuse the offer, as I think would most all others. In theory it sounds OK, but with such a small forum and we all have busy and/or stressed lives. While we have few posters, we have MANY watchers....why they don't post, I can't speak to. I recently was PM'd by one who said they'd avidly followed for years, but never posted. I suggested they do so and that I didn't want to keep up a back and forth via PM...they said they'd do so after the New Year, but haven't surfaced. Some are intimidated by others that have worked on this much longer [some of us full time for some long parts of our lives], etc. Others may prefer the shadows or not like the grumpiness sometime shown [I think not all that often, and that has been exaggerated.]

Whatever, when someone joins, one would hope the slowly ease into the Forum - looking at past posts on subjects of interest to them; who is who and what the general consensus is or disagreements on points of interest to them. They might even research how the Forum came to be and the many problems we've had with infiltrators or freak outs and why, therefore, reception can sometimes be frosty...sometimes not. What I wouldn't suggest is someone coming and on day one posting a lot of threads, all asking questions.....or being careful with sensitive topics. Both coincide with some techniques of provocateurs.....while they may not be....they should be aware that it can seem so. On very large Forums, usually anything goes. Not so here...but I think most who have joined have found it an informative and friendly place. Not all. One thing CD often said that I believe is true. This is not a parlor game nor a 'who done it novel'. This is WAR! [against the lies, promoters of those lies, and consequences of the lies, of certain forces within our rotten system]. To wax personal, I lost all my money, had all my property seized for many years, death threats, bugs on my car, had guns placed against my head, was arrested [and much more!]; and to this day have problems all because I decided to work in these 'cotton fields'.....some who just dabble in this as a puzzle hobby or have not had such problems [and glad they didn't] would not react in the same was as I or Jack White sometimes did [having been stabbed, and nearly dying from that...et al.]...as well as others who have come within an inch of their lives, wits, ability to work, or ability to live for doing this kind of research. One can even name a few who lost their lives apparently connected to such Deep Political research....so for some it really is NO game...very real...and sometimes raw. Of course one shouldn't blame someone not responsible for past problems, but sometimes one senses patterns that make one worry.....and sometimes one is wrong about those....and sometimes not.

Anyway, this thread on R. White now has been totally gone off topic...and I suggest it go back on topic and the 'other' matters be on a separate thread, if they need more dead horse beating, at all.
