Hello
This post has now served it's purpose.
I am going to leave the photo as a reminder, the text is gone.
Nothing more needs to be said.

You don't even have to use your name, make something up so the next person can address your comment without confusion.
I'm afraid that I don't know what this post is supposed to mean.

New Game or would it be Restart !!
ReplyDeleteI don't get it.
ReplyDeleteOr would this have something to do with the threatening emails you got?
He's most likely some snot-nosed progressive who's seen too many Michael Moore films and happened across your blog, and decided to (mis)direct his frustration in your direction. He isn't worth another minute of your time. You have better things to say, methinks -- and I mean that with all due respect. Let's get back to 1911 projects, 870 projects and pawn shop guns, shall we?
ReplyDeletePawn Shop lessons. Yes, great idea.
ReplyDeleteAnd 1911 projects. And pretty revolvers.
And not so pretty revolvers.
And idiots pointing loaded guns at their head.
Lots of goodies. Hope it isn't ending (especially since I feel partly responsible for putting up the post that set a certain Cowboy off who then dragged you into it).
Paging Charlie Wenzel...
ReplyDeleteWhats up w/this post.?
ReplyDeleteaah, the knock that no one wants.
ReplyDeleteWhen you can't hide behind anything and the guy you pissed off is at the door.
That the crap, over?
ReplyDeleteEr, WHAT the crap.
ReplyDeleteI can't do anything right tonight.
Let me guess.
ReplyDeleteIt's the front door of an IWC (Idiot With a Computer).
You know, I keep hearing how today's generation is so much more tech-savvy than us old folks.
If that's true, how is it that so many of them do stupid things online without realizing that every keystroke is tracable back to their computer.
One of the beauties of the internet is that it perfectly triangulates perpetrator, crime, and location of act(s).
Fuck, did you get that as an email?
ReplyDeleteIs that your door & name?
If the bastard has taken offence at your blog and gone to the bother of finding you he's MAD.
go hide mate. when ur safe, visit www.rsf.org and see their handbook for bloggers & cyberdisidents. it has a good section on blogging anonomously.
(presence of mind, absence of body (from the threat) and all that).
great blogg, good luck, he can't match your intelligence.
Uh oh...
ReplyDelete"without realizing that every keystroke is tracable back to their computer.

are you kidding? ever heard of proxy servers and scattering things over the globe and encryption?
"go hide mate"
ReplyDelete- The thing is, we don't have to run and hide. We can stand and defend. There is no shame in self defense, quite the opposite. I think what we are seeing here, is the "Outing" of a troll from the past.
British Dissident:
ReplyDeleteWe don't do things that way in the US ... I realize this is difficult to imagine when you live in country where a homeowner who kills a burglar does hard time.
I once had a little Boston-based internet stalker track me down in Oregon ... he didn't like my posts about him in alt.usenet.kooks. He had picked up a cheap pistol at a gunshow on the way here, and was parked in front of my house ranting at my neighbors and raving away.
I went out there and pointed a Galil ARM at him, disarmed him, and had him wait for the Hillsboro police to take him away ... I pity the kooklet who actually figures out what my address is.
Xavier is just showing a kook hate-email writer he knows where he lives as well.
Heh.
"One of the beauties of the internet is that it perfectly triangulates perpetrator, crime, and location of act(s)."
ReplyDeleteThis sentence is wrong utterly.
The simple fact that you were able to find someone is a testament to the fact that they didn't know what they were doing. However, as a troll can hide himself, so can you, Xavier. If you're serious about something like that, there are a number of steps you can take. There are also steps that can be taken to find more elusive trolls.
I do this stuff professionally, so if you need any tips, send me an e-mail.

Everything online is tracable.
Maybe not by you or anyone you know, but everything online is tracable if it is important enough.
(But that is an assertion that will be proven on a need to know basis only.)

You seem to be adding credibility to my point, but I'm dropping the discussion since this is not the proper place for it.
;)

Oooo... Need to know. Is that like the "Can't tell you, it's top secret" defence?
So, popping in a Linux live CD into your laptop, running it with no hard drive writes, changing your mac address to that of an authenticated user at Starbucks, doing your internet work, and turning off the laptop (permanently and unrecoverably erasing all data of your internet romp) is somehow traceable? Do tell...
Xavier, I see what it was now, Love the style of it.
ReplyDeleteExisting thing, have you got tips like that posted anywhere, I'd be very keen to know more
Unfortunately, I won't be near the net for a day or five.
Guys, I stand by what I said about hide, even if it turns my dick into a pussy... Let me explain:
Anyone who can get so upset with Xavier, that they start sending death threats, is completely out of touch with reality.
Someone with so little sense of proportion is DANGEROUS, they have lost touch with the effects and outcomes of their actions, and probably feel entirely justified in their position.
Don't expect such a sad and sorry little shit to come out all tough and in your face, he's much more likely to poison your dog and pour petrol (sorry, gasoline) under your door, or cut your break pipes in the wee small hours,
that's when he's not too busy torturing someone elses pets or children....
And if the little guy reads this...
Flush your tissue paper down the bog you snivelling little wanker and go get a life!
