Three important posts from the weekend you might want to check out if you haven't already.
A post on Sipsey Street floats rapidly downstream (we're approaching 10,000 posts since we started, with over 70,000 comments). Also, traffic drops dramatically on a weekend. So it's easy to miss something, especially if you are using your work computer Monday through Friday. There were three important posts this weekend that I'd like to make sure every SSI reader had a chance to see. This one from Saturday:
A discussion of the shelf life of COINTELPRO-type provocateurs.
And these two from yesterday. First my open letter to FBI Director James Comey:
"The dangers in becoming untethered to oversight and accountability." New FBI director says he wants to avoid another COINTELPRO scandal. But is he serious? My open letter. "This is the FBI. They'll kill your ass."
And this one of some importance to the friends of, investors in, and legal extortion targets of Christian and Holly Kerodin:
There is nothing new under the Kerodin dark star. "Holly Kerodin et al., Plaintiffs versus Servicemagic, Inc. et al., Defendants."

I can understand people within the movement hating each other but this back and forth between you guys only hurts us as a whole. You guys don't have to hold hands and sing but it could help if the fighting were kept privately.
Pfft. That's not going to happen. Even if Mike decided to go all kumbayah, and kerodin played along, kerodin's proxies would still be lashing out with their nonsense.
You can't deal with these louts fairly, they have lost all ability to be objective.
I prefer smoking these people out now. I want to know who they are. What their motives are, and why they demand the right to something they have no right to, namely moral leadership of the patriot movement. These torch and pitchfork types are going to be a liability. They see parading around with a noose in one hand and an AR-15 in the other as the way to gain support. They are constantly prodding others to act rashly and prematurely, while they sit back and sneer.
I'm done with these guys. They need to be exposed, and discredited, and avoided.
What is happening now needed to happen. It's going to save a lot of good people heartache later. At least those willing to be rational.
Putting feathers up your butt and sitting on an egg does not make you a chicken. Co-opting the III brand and creating various for-profit schemes does not make you a IIIper.
Get it now?
Oh yes, according to Mr Ramsey, any who disagree with MVB are "louts' with no "ability to be objective". Please oh wise one, Mr Steve,Sir, point me to where I have been thuggish or a bully.
As to a drinker of the "kool aid" of MVB as well as a sycophant of his; I present you Steve Ramsey.
No Bill YOU said it. It's a common defense of Kerodin often used by his shoe shine boys to try and insert attributes into words they disagree with, if not entire sentences. Many of Kerodin's supporters are louts and bullies because they represent themselves that way. Their commentary is usually stupid, boorish and profanity laced. The occasional veiled threat is made. Actual substance is usually on a long holiday with them.
Those who want to debate the merits are few and far between. Some maintain some sense of decorum, but end up tipping the chessboard and walking away, not having found a path to victory.
As to sycophantic behavior, this should always include defending the indefensible, which I arguably have not done with MVB, mostly because what he says and does requires none. Kerodin on the other hand has many doing damage control and counterattack at any given time. He needs it. He's always poking a new hole in his own hull. They simply reach into their shoeshine box for whatever they think might work at the moment. They aren't to skilled at deflection, and achieve rather poor overall scores on the defense, but then again, they haven't much to work with in their liege lord.
Spitshine please, Kiwi Brown.
Steve Ramsey, I said what, exactly?
Tis not I who painted with that broad brush.
You chose to dip your brush into the paint of overall generalization and overall intellectual dishonesty. You then make an attempt to skew the judgement of others with you degrading words. You decided in your statement/comment above on the color of the paint which you apply to your very broad brush, which consists of nothing more than the ad hominen fallacy of lumping a group of people together as "louts with no ability to be objective".
When painting, lumps are not such a good thing.
"Spitshine please, Kiwi Brown"
Nice way to end, racist much, or speaking from experience?
