Please don't post another thing to my wife. This you have been asked formally and repeatedly.

The First Amendment is a great achievement. Another great achievement in MORAL reasoning is that ought implies can. Consequently, and more importantly under these circumstances, can does not imply ought. I'm certain that you understand.

That is the last word that will be addressed to you from me or my wife.

Has Poet PM'd any blackmail threats to or about you? I think not.

The campaign of renewed intimidation and stalking of Poet threatened in those PM's you sent to Laz was justified by you on the basis that you were being "attacked" on SMBR and needed to "defend" yourself.

Laz asked you to show any attack, and assured you that anyone who continued doing such a thing would be suspended.

You refused to tell him what these "attack" posts were.

It was a blackmail attempt, and blackmail attempts are best made public immediately. Now, anyone who didn't know before that you were obsessed with Poet should have it perfectly clear in their minds. The disgusting and menacing sexual allusions in the Melanie song you referenced has surely nailed it.

And you did not indicate that you didn't want the threats to harass Poet made public.

But Poet has made clear than any communication from her to you was private and should remain so. And! -- she was not blackmailing you.

This is disgusting, and a second blackmail attempt in as many days:

Nor am I sure why you would so strongly object to my posting them. They were quite nice. But we can probably work something out to keep them private if that's your strong desire.

The ONLY reason you can do this to Poet is because you threatened to sue SI for the right to keep doing it. That is so scary.

I wonder if X and Neocon will come here and be all friendly and supportive again. I do hope they read the Melanie song, and your new posts to Poet. And the threats made to Laz to bother Poet again, Poet, who you didn't even claim had done anything at all to you.
