Suppression Groundwork

Journal Entry: Wed Apr 11, 2012, 8:28 AM

I received an e-mail from Yorkregion.com, the people that never reported about the police lawlessness when I was tortured and slandered by local "law enforcement".

*******************************************

Mr. Wilkins,
Your comments have again been reported as offensive.
Please keep future comments relevant to the story at hand and refrain from personal attacks.
Failure to do so will result in you being banned from commenting on yorkregion.com

Jeff Bower
Managing Editor - Digital and Multimedia Content
Yorkregion.com

*******************************************

This was my reply comment, that Jeff Bower has yet to respond to:

Which comment, Jeff?
Was it the comment about the comment that Joe made?
How is one offensive but the other not?
It seems like a double standard and a further attempt to stifle freedom of speech to me.
Perhaps you could enlighten me as to how "Butt chafes" is less offensive that "chafed Butt".
Is it OK for your employee to make this comment?

*******************************************

Here is a link to the article. [link]

Here are a couple of the comments that were deleted which supposedly contained so-called "personal attacks"

*******************************************

Great choice of words, Joe

I agree, something needs to be done to ensure the safety of every citizen of Canada. We wouldn't want a chafed Butt.

*******************************************
After that comment was removed, I replaced it with the second comment.
*******************************************

My comment has been deleted from the article. Apparently it's OK for Joe Fantauzzi to say Butt chafes, but it's not acceptible for me to say chafed Butt. YorkRegion.com are hypocrites who want to stifle freedom of speech when it comes to anyone but themselves.

Then I posted this on Facebook.

My comment about my comment was deleted too. I also got an e-mail telling me that commenting about the double standards practiced by yorkregion.com may get me banned from further commenting.
Talk about proving my point.

*******************************************

I believe the message from Jeff Bowers of YorkRegion.com is the groundwork for their plan to silence my dissent.
As is seemingly standard practice in York Region, I have been accused of something, with no explanation or evidence.
Like the Catholic School System, who violated my rights without due process.
Like the police who tortured and wrongly imprisoned me on the word of lying Catholic School Officials.
These personal attacks seem to be acceptible to YorkRegion.com, who never reported them to the public.
Like the York Court System, that found me "guilty of trespassing" without demanding the Catholic School Board or the Police show evidence that I ever did any of the things that they disgustingly accused me of doing.

Now YorkRegion.com has accused me of making 'personal attacks', so let me remind you of a few of the comments made by an employee of YorkRegion.com, Tracy Kibble, Editor of the Georgina Advocate.

Letters from the EditorI mentioned my concern about the literacy of the journalists at yorkregion.com in these journal entries.

Here is an e-mail from Georgina Advocate editor Tracy Kibble, explaining to me their view on correctly conveying collective nouns:
***************************************
Mr. Wilkins,
We are familiar with the grammatical rules regarding collective nouns. As well, we follow Canadian Press Style, which asserts: Collective nouns (groups of people and things) take a singular verb unless the individuals are to be emphasized.

In this case, York Regional Police, in reference to the organization, is singular

Journalism is hard, just ask Tracy KibbleHere is a hopefully still ongoing exchange between the Editor of the Georgina Advocate, Tracy Kibble, and I.
This is the e-mail I sent to get the conversation started:

Have you been following the ball ban story coming out of Toronto, Tracy?
Here is today's journal entry, entitled 'Give me balls or give me death' http://keswickpinhead.deviantart.com/journal/Give-me-balls-or-give-me-death-269485172

I find it fascinating how some media deal with officials who overstep their authority in OTHER parts of Canada.

This brave approach is sadly lacking here in Keswick.

Your silence emboldens criminals in positions of power.

Saying nothing ensure

Some might construe Ms. Kibble's comments to be a 'Personal Attack'...
I will let you be the judge, as should always be the case in a democratic society that claims to champion freedom of speech.
