THE EMAIL

Fort Wayne group bloggers, new form of public e-mail, are discussing one of the bloggers real email going public.

Because this is a legal matter, emails are considered, I won't repeat the content of the email, private. Email are considered private communication. I receive comments on the my blog and I print them. But emails are treated different especially, if they are defamatory. Someone asked me a question in an email, and I took them I did not want to see it on their blog. Private.


But back to the email in question. really did not see anything defamatory in the email. But the young bucks are livid. I think it is a sign of betrayal. It borders on inbreed fighting. . This is a groupthink mentality. If I agree with you in one thing, I will agree with you in all things. Not true. And that is what the young bucks are finding out.

But back to emails, I received emails and I've shot back my response, swift. I try to be careful in the email because it is private but it can be used against me. If I really told the person, where to go or I was going to put my foot in a place where stuggle usually come out of. I could get into some serious trouble.
Same way in which you speak to people in public, folks want you say stuff about folks. But mums the word, that ain't want it's about. It's the facts, you may not like the SOB but you don't tell them to their face. You just walk away, and mumble under your breath.

Blogging is different, I can say whatever, I want. Some things I say may be even offensive, but I feel safe, as long as it is a public figure. Yep, a public figure, I am not going after private citizens. Now, I don't call public figure SOB, but it becomes obvious that I am not in support of some of their policies. Which are my opinions.

My opinion on politicians is protected political speech, my character assassination of an individual is not, and I know the different. So, I watch my p's and q's. I do not advocate harm to come to politicians or to be done to politicians or private individuals. But, I do have opinions, and I try to not cross that fine line into character assassination.

I have been asked about folks, but will not share my deepest darkest thoughts, because it is clearly character assassination. You either agree with this person, or you don't. It is not a straddle the fence issue. But, if walls could talk, I probably would be sued. or emails, I can be sued.

Sued.
