No One Accused This Man of Threats of Violence/Vendetta?




A reader sent us this from Mr. B's Facebook page: Yes I was Banned from Sholanda Speak’s . The accused me of threats of violence? And then say that the truth is at their side? I simply called them out by name ,and said if they didn’t have anything to hide why use the name Sholanda Speaks. I have never or will ever use threats of Violence. And they said I threatened them 3 times that is a lie. They simply can’t stand someone telling the truth on their page.

First, Mr. B was not banned for three reasons. He had asked about banning and we had replied that there were three infractions that would cause someone to be banned. He committed only one, and that was possibly libeling two individuals by claiming they were part of our team.

We have known both women for quite some time, and both have reported to us that they simply laugh at such rumors and go on with their own projects. The problem is that not everyone is able to do that. What if someone used the name of a totally innocent person who did care? Who might be in danger of physical attack? See yesterday's blog about threats to the couple who run Stolen Stuff of the Tennessee Valley.


Second, as we published yesterday, only one person has ever been banned from this blog for using threats against anyone. That was Ryan Kent Pollard, currently a wanted man in both Florence and Lauderdale County. A 100% fool proof way to be banned is to make a threat of violence against a woman whom you've already physically attacked once. For some strange reason, many individuals don't like grown men who beat up women and will do all in their power to see them brought to justice.

Third, we've recently been told that an East Lauderdale "celebrity" has been brought into this. This is a man who has accomplished something for his community. Does that bother some so much that they disparage him in any way they can? Think about that and how sad that is. Instead of wanting to help their community as he has, they want to bring him down in some manner. Not a very good reflection on the community, is it?

No, we've never seen any indication that anyone has a vendetta against Rogersville, Lauderdale County High School, or any other nearby community or facility. Another reader mentioned upset parents causing these issues to be presented. This is an extremely valid statement.

It was only a few years ago that many parents in Sheffield contacted us about the tee-shirt dress code in that system. We were glad to present it to the public, but we were also quick to remind them that four years of high school would soon be over and the dress code quickly a memory. In other words, don't sweat the small stuff.

If parents or any concerned citizens feel that there are real problems in any school system, we're here to publish those problems. Some are obviously more serious than others. We let the public judge. We are concerned with waste of taxpayer funds since over half of us here live and pay taxes in Lauderdale.

Finally, back to our three automatic outs: 1. All words that are considered rude or ill-advised are clearly published. Don't use them; it simply makes you look like an ill-educated thug. 2. Don't mention names of people not in public office or in the legal system. 3. Don't threaten anyone. Period.
