I'll bet this guy doesn't get off because he is "too pretty to go to jail".
A Freeburg High School driver's education instructor and professional wrestler, whose ring name is "The Teacher," has been charged with breaking the neck of 17-year-old Ashley Reeves of Millstadt and leaving her in dense woods to die.She was found by police at 2 a.m. Saturday. First listed in critical condition, Reeves had improved somewhat as of late Saturday afternoon after being evacuated to Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital in St. Louis.
On Saturday evening, hospital spokesman Bob Davidson listed Reeves' condition as serious.
The sheriff's department held a press conference at 11 a.m. Saturday to announce the charges against Samson "Sam" R. Shelton, 26, of Wildwood Lake Estates in Smithton. Shelton was charged with two counts of attempted first-degree murder and one count of kidnapping. He is being held at the St. Clair County Jail with bail set at $1 million.
Shelton teaches both driver's and physical education and is a volunteer assistant baseball coach at Freeburg High School.
The formal charges state that Shelton "used his forearm with such force as to break the neck of Ashley Reeves," and also used his belt in an attempt to strangle her. The 6-foot, 1-inch, 200-pound Shelton is listed as a wrestler in the Ultimate Wrestling Alliance and has appeared in several metro-east prize rings, including in Fairview Heights and Cahokia.
After spending more than 30 hours over a rainy night in thick brush and trees behind a baseball diamond at Citizens Park in Belleville, Reeves, a student at Columbia High School, was discovered about 2 a.m. Saturday by sheriff's investigators.
She was reported missing by her family about 3:30 p.m. Thursday.
Now I will say that this guy clearly was not Ashley's teacher -- she attended school in a different district. Knowing what I do of the geography of the area, I suspect he may have been a neighbor or a member of the same church.
But regardless, this is a horrifying crime. It sounds like there is much more to come out -- but hopefully not in a manner that resembles the circus unfolding in North Carolina.
May this young lady recover and be restored to health to whatever degree is possible.
UPDATE: Just read the article from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch -- this guy was a real freak!
A profile of Shelton on the Web site for his fast-pitch softball team says: "Sammy is single and currently looking for a female companion. This may include long term or short term relationship. Age does not matter, must be cute or hot."The profile also said his hobbies include "touching hookers" and pornography, and described his occupation as a "teacher, pimp, pimp teacher, pro-wrestler."
Why do I get the impression that there may be some guys in the Illinois prison system who are hoping to have Shelton as a cellmate?
UPDATE: I seem to have used a certain term in this post, a term that I have always understood as referring to immigration status, but which i am now informed is racially/ethnically insensitive. I apologize. I won't change the word on my site, though, because I do not go back and hide my mistakes or bury evidence of my own errors.
Those participating in tomorrow's boycott may congest our streets, and may provide a certain disruption of the economy Certainly that is their goal.
Now that immigrants have grabbed the nation's attention, what next?Monday has been set aside for immigrants to boycott work, school and shopping to show how much they matter to their communities. But with some growing tired of street protests, and others afraid they'll be deported or fired for walking out, people are planning to support the effort in myriad ways.
Some will work but buy nothing on Monday. Others will protest at lunch breaks or at rallies after work. There will be church services, candlelight vigils, picnics and human chains.
The range of activities shows both how powerful the immigrants' rights movement has become in a matter of weeks, and that organizers don't yet have a clear focus on its next step.
But this boycott won't be absolute.
No, they aren't boycotting everything American.
They are not boycotting American liberties, the likes of which they are not guaranteed in their own homelands and which are specifically prohibitted to foreigners in Mexico and a number of other Latin American countries.
They aren't boycotting American social services -- they will still use the free health care and cash the welfare checks provided by the American taxpayer.
They will still use our roads and mass transit, again heavily subsidized by American citizens and legal immigrants.
Personally, I urge those participating in tomorrow's events to boycott one -- and only one -- American thing.
Boycott American air.
Hold your breaths until you turn blue -- for the entire 24 hours.
And meditate upon this paraphrase of a MeCHA slogan.
“Para los ciudadanos, todo. Para los mojados, nada.” -- For the citizens, everything. For the wetbacks, nothing.
Could you imagine what would happen if a white supremacist group with a history of armed violence announced its intention to come to a private university and march to protest the alleged rape of a white woman by a black athlete? There would be utter chaos, as multiple law enforcement agencies vied to arrest the thugs and protect the accused from the racists.
Why, then, is Duke welcoming this group and permitting them to be active on campus? And why is the prosecutor apparently going to meet with these thugs?
The national chairman of the New Black Panther Party for Self-Defense says his group intends to march at Duke University on Monday to "deal directly" with lacrosse players about charges of rape of an escort service dancer at a team party.Duke's campus police are coordinating with the Durham Police Department to prepare for the black-separatist group, which has a reputation for coming to its protests armed.
Malik Zulu Shabazz, a Washington lawyer who is the leader of the New Panthers, said he will be in Durham to rally with local black leaders and monitor progress of the criminal case against Collin Finnerty and Reade Seligmann, the two students charged with raping and kidnapping the dancer.
"We are conducting an independent investigation, and we intend to enter the campus and interview lacrosse players," Shabazz said Thursday. "We seek to ensure an adequate, strong and vigorous prosecution."
Duke is a private institution, and its campus is private property. Shabazz said he has not sought permission to enter but that his group has "received no word that we are not welcome."
John Burness, Duke's vice president for public affairs and community relations, said Thursday that the university will allow a controlled march on campus, as long as the New Black Panthers follow specific rules.
"As an institution we support free speech, and we will treat them like any other group," Burness said. "But we do not permit weapons. We will take necessary steps to keep the campus safe."
One of the key tenets of the New Black Panthers is owning firearms and knowing how to use them, according to the Anti-Defamation League, a national Jewish group that has monitored Shabazz and his followers for years.
In other words, the violent racists are allowed on campus to harrass students not charged with any crime, provided they leave tehir guns at home. What a double standard -- though one that has operated throughout the development of this case. Could you imagine the smae courseof action being followed by the university or the prosecutor if this case involved the alleged rape of a white stripper by the Duke basketball team?
Could you imagine the Klan being allowed to march on the Duke campus and freely "conduct an independent investigation" and "interview players" at that private school? Certainly not! But the Panthers are welcome, out of a typical academic desire to be "sensitive" and "politically correct".
I don't know if any of these boys are guilty. If they are, I hope they get the maximum available penalty --I've had too many girls and women in my life face the trauma of sexual assault (heck, "one" is "too many" -- and ther have been more than that) to want to see anything less than every ounce of justice received. But in this circus-like kangaroo court atmosphere, the introduction of a violent racist group to the mix is prejudicial to both the safety of the students at Duke and the right of the accused to a fair trial under the laws and constitutions of both the United States and the State of North Carolina.

Shame on Spain!
To intentionally destroy archaeological treasures without giving scholars time to fully examine and study them is an act of barbarism! To do so TO BUILD A PARKING LOT is a move that shocks the conscience.
THE archeologists could barely hide their excitement. Beneath the main square of Ecija, a small town in southern Spain, they had unearthed an astounding treasure trove of Roman history.They discovered a well-preserved Roman forum, bath house, gymnasium and temple as well as dozens of private homes and hundreds of mosaics and statues — one of them considered to be among the finest found.
But now the bulldozers have moved in. The last vestiges of the lost city known as Colonia Augusta Firma Astigi — one of the great cities of the Roman world — have been destroyed to build an underground municipal car park.
Now i'll grant you that Europe is full of Roman ruins, but this city is one o some importance.
The Roman city has proved to be one of the biggest in the ancient world. Its estimated 30,000 citizens dominated the olive oil industry. Terracotta urns from Ecija have been discovered as far away as Britain and Rome.The region produced three Roman emperors — Trajan, Theodosius and Hadrian — and the research has shown that Ecija was almost as important in the Roman world as Cordoba and Seville.
The socialist governmetn of the town offers this appalling justification for their actions.
The socialist council says that had it not dug up the main square, Plaza de Espana, to build the car park in 1998, the remains would never have been found. But it insists the town must press ahead with the new car park.
In other words, since it was not discovered until the preparations to build began, it obviously couldn't be as important as 299 parking spaces.
“Nonsense,” says the town’s chief archeologist, Antonio Fernandez Ugalde, director of the municipal museum. “For some reason, the politicians here think it is more important to park their own cars. It simply does not make sense.”But despite opposition from numerous other archeological groups and the Spanish Royal Academy of Art, there is now no possibility of restoring the 2,000-year-old Roman town.
The most exquisite discovery was a statue, known as the Wounded Amazon, modelled on an ancient Greek goddess of war. Only three other such statues are known to exist. The one in Ecija is in by far the best condition with some of its original decorative paint intact.
So much history -- destroyed in the name of commercial development. What the Islamists do not destroy of Western Culture, we will destroy ourselves.
Red China forcibly severed the relationship between Chinese Catholics and the Vatican in 1951. Those who have remained loyal to the Pope have suffered persecution, imprisonment, and martyrdom at the hands of the atheistic Communist regime in Beijing. In recent years, there has been movement on the part of the Chinese government (which rigidly controls the "official" Catholic Church in China) to permitting Chinese Catholics to end the government-imposed schism. Hope has been rising that there might be, at last, freedom of worship and autonomy under the aegis of Vatican approved bishops.
Unfortunately, this hope seems to have been dashed today.
China's state-sanctioned Roman Catholic Church ordained a new bishop Sunday, rejecting the Vatican's request to delay the appointment and threatening efforts to restore official ties between the sides after five decades.China's Foreign Ministry defended the official church's right to ordain bishops without Vatican input and called the Holy See's criticism of such appointments "groundless."
The ordination could damage recent efforts to restore Sino-Vatican ties, cut in 1951 after the Communist Party took control in China. One of the stumbling blocks in improving relations has long been a dispute over who has the authority to appoint bishops.
"The recent ordination of bishops at some diocese have been unanimously well-received by church members and priests," the Foreign Ministry said in a faxed statement. "The criticism toward the Chinese side by the Vatican is groundless."
China's church - the Chinese Patriotic Catholic Association - held a ceremony for the new bishop, Ma Yinglin, in the city of Kunming in southwestern Yunnan province.
Hong Kong Cable TV showed Ma wearing his new bishop's hat and carrying an ornate gold staff as he waved to the faithful.
Lett me make one thing clear -- there is no "state-sanctioned Roman Catholic Church". There is a counterfeit Catholic Church used as a propaganda piece by the Red Chinese. Roman Catholics are persecuted for their faith, for they refuse to join the state-controlled body.
Will the UN, or the nations of the world, stand up and condemn this fundamental violation of religious freedom and intereference in the internal affairs of the Catholic Church by a govenrment which officially denies the that God exists?
What else can you call Jake Gyllenhaal, the star of a homoerotic western who insults the US military as a part of the promotional work for his upcoming anti-American/anti-military flick, Jarhead.
"The US soldiers were sent to the desert for 122 days and they sat in the same tent and did nothing, except a little too much masturbating."
I'd love to say I'm astounded -- but I'm not given that stars in Hollywood are required to prove their contempt fo the nation before they can succeed.
This America-hating dolt forgets that the reason there was so little combat was the fact that the Iraqis folded like a house of cards -- they were trying to surrender to news crews, unmanned drones, and particularly attractive camels. Not to mention the fact that the US irrationally listened to the demands of the UN to leave the Iraqi dictator in power after liberating Kuwait from its invaders -- resulting in a dozen years of continued oppression of the Iraqis and the need to clean up the mess today.
My wife's cousins was one of those wounded when a SCUD hit his barracks. One of my co-workers had a nephew who was MIA after his unit met up with an Iraqi patrol -- and who thankfully turned up alive in an allied medical unit with wounds that were not life-threatening. I wonder if Jake would be willing to face either of them and make such a comment -- and if he would walk away under his own power if he did.
Americans -- time to do our duty. Let's make sure this Saddamite pretty-boy no longer has a career in film or television, and that he ends his days doing dinner theater outside Hoboken for the rest of his life.
Cops in California destroyed a newspaper box because they thought it contained a bomb.
They weren't far off.
A newspaper promotion for Tom Cruise's upcoming "Mission: Impossible III" got off to an explosive start when a county arson squad blew up a news rack, thinking it contained a bomb.The confusion: the Los Angeles Times rack was fitted with a digital musical device designed to play the "Mission: Impossible" theme song when the door was opened. But in some cases, the red plastic boxes with protruding wires were jarred loose and dropped onto the stack of newspapers inside, alarming customers.
Sheriff's officials said they rendered the news rack in this suburb 35 miles north of downtown Los Angeles "safe" after being called to the scene Friday by a concerned individual who thought he'd seen a bomb.
Times officials said the devices were placed in 4,500 randomly selected news boxes in Los Angeles and Ventura counties in a venture with Paramount Pictures designed to turn the "everyday news rack experience" into an "extraordinary mission."
It was just that, at least for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department arson squad, which destroyed the box.
"This was the least intended outcome. We weren't expecting anything like this," said John O'Loughlin, the Times' senior vice president for planning.
The devices are to remain in the boxes until May 7, two days after the film is scheduled to open.
The Tom Cruise flick should have proved itself a bomb by that date.
With luck, it will self-destruct and save the bomb squads of major American cities the trouble of blowing it up.
Well, my Darling Democrat responded to a survey from AC Nielsen -- and for some reason, they want the three of us (me, her, and the Apolitical Pooch) to be a pat of their HomeScan program. For the foreseeable future, we'll be scanning all our our purchases and transmitting the data to the company. Could be fun -- could be a pain. I'll let you know.
But I do have one question.
Why do I feel like I have been assimilated?

Comments on Teacher Attempts To Murder Teen
You can pick and choose what you want from these internet sites and in this case they are looking for the worst.
|| Posted by none, May 1, 2006 10:43 AM ||Just about anyone with a website or myspace account has something that can be misinterpreted to fit the crime or make it seem like he is some horrible monster.
He is not...
This is something that probably turned bad and was mishandled by Sam.
Everyones a marter when a headline like this appears. But, look into your own website or your sons and daughters and see for yourself that things can be used for, or taken in out of a context to fit the crime.
"mishandled"?
He broke the nexk of a teenager and left her to die. I don't think "mishandled" even begins to cover such a course of action. That is like saying that OJ "mishandled" his relationship wih Nicole.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 1, 2006 03:12 PM ||Hey. I go to Freeburg High School. I knew Sam Shelton well and talked to him everyday. He came off as a nice guy. He made himself out to be a big ladies' man. He and I used to play one on one with each other in the high school gym before my basketball practice. I am deeply saddened by his actions. I feel like I have lost an adult friend. I never would've thought he was capable of trying to take a life. Ashley has a strong will to survive and God made sure to keep her here so she can put him away. God bless Ashley and may he have mercy on Sam Shelton.
|| Posted by Dani Collins, May 1, 2006 06:50 PM ||Ok, this one I need 5 seconds!
|| Posted by JimBD, May 2, 2006 05:50 PM ||The bastard doesn't deserve mercy. He deserves slow death.(Even if Ashley appears to be a whore).
|| Posted by Kim, May 4, 2006 12:25 AM ||I heard she was pregnent, which would explain a lot. She tells him she's pregnant, he freaks, he kills her(or tries)...how pathetic. The question is, why would a good-looking guy have to resort to having illicit relationships with children?(Ugly chidren-sorry!). I'm 16, female, and disgusted with all of the teacher-student relationships popping up.
That’s real shallow of you KIM. I know your only a 16 y/o child, but think before your write something so stupid. I'm 19 and I know calling a fellow female ugly or a possible whore is wrong. It has nothing to do with her looks or her reputation. This is an innocent victim who survived despite the hours of torture she endured. Most people would not have survived. I admire her for that. I don't care if she was the town whore or Mother Theresa. Don't judge her by the silly rumors you have heard, your only making yourself look ignorant and jealous. "Ugly children" are you serious? I think Pink describes you best in her song "Stupid Girls". Oh, and learn how to spell pregnant and children little girl. These are simple words. Are you in a special class for that?
|| Posted by Erin, May 4, 2006 05:03 PM ||I thought I had deleted Kim yesterday, but i guess it didn't go through. Just as well, because Erin said more or less what I feel about her post -- at least up to the last sentence or three.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 4, 2006 05:51 PM ||Hey, I'm sorry if you guys were offended by my post. Let me rephrase.
|| Posted by Kim, May 4, 2006 06:35 PM ||Most of the time, attractive men will date attractive women(over 18, preferably), and (Sorry!) Ashley just isn't in his leagues look-wise. The authorities say she was in a relationship with SS. Personally, I see this is an indicator of loose morals, therefore the word use "whore", however unfortunate. As for her surviving, that's great, and she certainly didn't deserve to be murdered(almost), but she was kinda asking for it. Okay, that sounded harsh.Please read between the lines. Botton line is, Shelton should die.Now.
Keep in mind, I'm close to her age, and have a LOT of perspective on how the crank turns, if you catch my drift.
As for my type-o, I got it right the 2nd time, so I can obviously spell, and hit the wrong key. Umm..I spelled children correctly the first time, too, just hit the wrong key(again). You're right, I am in a special class.For certifiable geniuses.(EXPO). Oh, and how did you know I was jealous? After all, it's not every day you get to be eaten alive by insects after having your neck broken...By the way, you're missing a comma before little girl.Kisses
Girls Girls Girls !!! Glad your at least interested...THAT's important, I'm impressed!
However, the moral of the story is, in the olde vernacular: 'stay away from the near occasion of sin' simply and straight forward. That way you stay out of trouble and the leaches of society have less chance of getting their claws on you. They exist, people will try to tell you they don't, but then they can't explain whay we have victims.
|| Posted by JimBD, May 4, 2006 07:08 PM ||Kim, this is nothing less than abuse of a child by an adult. She is no more a "whore" or "asking for it" than you would be were you to be raped tonight by someone who broke into your house. That you appear incapable of understanding that is a clear sign of your immaturity, lack of compassion, and lack of morals.
And speaking as a high school teacher, I feel quite confident I can peg which broad "type" of student I would classify you as -- it is the one I call "prissy bitch". You know, the type who believes she is superior to her fellow students because she looks a little prettier and is maybe a bit smarter. My experience is that they often see themselves as morally superior to the girls who do happen to get pregnant -- especially as they congratulate tehmselves for being smart enough to have been born to a mommy and daddy who put them on the Pill so that can screw half the football team with impunity. Have I pegged you right?
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 4, 2006 07:52 PM ||Not at all. My 14-yr old sister has a baby, I don't believe in premarital sex, my fathers 80, my mothers insane, and, yes, I do look down on teen girls who get pregnant.Cool?
|| Posted by Kim, May 4, 2006 07:58 PM ||Broken home doesn't mean broken morals.I don't give anybody slack on that topic, because I fit the demographic perfectly, and yet I'm a straight-A, perfect attendance student.
Well quit calling your sister a whore, because that's what you’re doing every time you make those derogatory comments. Sorry for those last couple of lines in my message. I responded out of anger and it was childish. I'm not taking back my whole message, but I do believe you are foolish and insensitive. Intelligence means nothing to me if you don't have commonsense.
|| Posted by Erin, May 4, 2006 08:41 PM ||But..my "sister"(I don't regard her as such anymore) is a whore.Insensitive? Only to those who don't deserve sensitivity. Foolish? Ha. If I was foolish, I'd be dead.
|| Posted by Kim, May 4, 2006 09:05 PM ||Kim you just need to stop posting. You didn't know these people. I did. She was not a whore. Sam was a charmer. He appears in a friendly, honest and non-harmful way. I am 17, I am Ashley's age. Sam was my teacher. Don't open your mouth with your own derogatory comments.
|| Posted by Dani Collins, May 4, 2006 09:08 PM ||Good advice, Dani.
And Kim, I would have to say that your sister and her child are better off for you NOT being a part of their lives.
Here's hoping you learn the difference between righteousness and self-righteousness at some point in your life -- preferably before you drive away all of the imperfect folks in your life who might, at some point, have considered the ever-so-perfect you worth giving a damn about.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 4, 2006 09:29 PM ||Ahh...I see I've discovered the pit of pro-choice losers who dare to call themselves *gasp* moral AND liberal( talk about a contradiction).
|| Posted by Kim, May 4, 2006 10:01 PM ||Teen pregnancy indicates immorality, which indicates that the said teen is a genuine slut, along with whatever deadbeat got her worthless self pregnant. Anyone who doesn't think the same should seriously think about throwing themself off of the neares building. RWR, I assure you, many people find moral fiber( dare I say it?) refreshing and even comforting in a world full of people like you. Consequently, I find myself surrounded by people who "give a damn", as you so charmingly put it, because I have principles.
Here's some free advice: Haul your overweight self out of bed, find someone who will have you(You'll have to develop some sense of basic human understanding first, of course), and get a real life.
By the way, your bitterness is SOOO obvious. I would screen your future posts if i were you, huh?
Well, you certainly have misread my comments -- andclearly NOT read my blog to find out what this place really is.
First, I'm not pro-choice or liberal. I founded the pro-life group at my university 25 years ago, and am still involved ith that movement. What i am is a Christian who recognizes that every person is a sinner, and that cutting others out of our lives for sinning means we will each live in a lonely little box. Moral standards are important, but the reality is that each and every one of us "misses the mark" (Greek -- hamartia -- usually translated as "sins" on the Bible). and falls short of those standards in one way or another. Is it your position that you do not do the same, and that you are a paragon of virtue that has lived your life without sin? Do you believe that, upon discovery that you have sinned, you should be shunned by one and all for that sin? Or do you believe that sexual sins are the only ones which God will not forgive and which we must likewise hold to be outside the bounds of forgiveness? And I'll point out that it is attitudes like yours that fuel the abortion culture you seem to oppose -- all your sister would have needed to do was secretly have her child sucked from her womb with a vaccuum hose for her to have kept your good opinion and her relationship with you! Remembr -- the message of Christ is one of love and repentance for sinners, not one of self-righteousness and condemnation. Your attitude is more reflective of the Pharisees.
As for my relationships, rest assured that they are just fine -- I'm happily married to a wonderful woman who I adore, though miscarriages ended our dreams of having children and medical issues disqualify us from adopting. I'll be taking her for medical testing today, becasue of concerns about a posible heart condition to go with her other health problems. So trust me, I know a great deal more about REAL relationships, little girl, than you have even had the opportunity to dream of in your sixteen years of life. One of the most basic things I learned is that there is no perfect person out there for us to be in relationship with -- as a friend, family member, or spouse -- and that as a result we must learn to love others who are flawed, just as they must accept our flaws to love us.
There are, those, of course, who disagree with that point of view. They tend to push away those who fall short of their (limited) vision of what it means to be moral, and justify all sorts of hurtful actions against the sinful in the name of encouraging morality. The two best examples of this sort of person in today's world would be Rev. Fred Phelps amd Osama bin Laden. Are you kin to either?
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 5, 2006 04:38 AM ||i dont think anyone should have to go through anything like this. but sadly enough there are worng people out there. they just cant wait for their oppurtunity. i give the family of this young lady my blessings.
|| Posted by denea, May 5, 2006 08:05 AM ||For the record, I don't believe in abortion.Why? Because I think that if people want to practice promiscuity, or hell, even extramarital sex they should pay the price,not the child.They can carry it to term, and then then put it up for adoption. Then they'll have learned a lesson, saved a life, and bear the stretchmarks(EW!) forever.
|| Posted by Kim, May 5, 2006 08:34 PM ||I also think there should be a stiff penalty for teen pregnancy, and that if the family of the said whore decides to keep the child, the siblings should be able to opt for fostercare.(Because very few people understand the humiliation one faces in such a situation. The "stigma", if you will.)
As for your post, well, I'm not going to waste time commenting on such drivel. That's just the way it is. Not lack of compassion, but presence of practicality.
Lol..that was a bit pathetic..grasping at straws, huh?
|| Posted by Kim, May 6, 2006 02:30 PM ||That's right crazy girl, whatever you say.
|| Posted by Erin, May 6, 2006 09:09 PM ||ew! "Crazy Girl"...lol. So was your playdate with Dora the Explorer fun?
|| Posted by Kim, May 6, 2006 11:39 PM ||¡Usted es muchacha loca correcta!
|| Posted by Erin, May 7, 2006 07:48 AM ||Wow, you need to bone up on your spanish! The correct phrase was "Ésa es muchacha loca adecuada, lo que usted dice", all you did was tell me I'm correct, which is true but not applicable to your situation.(F-o-o-?)
|| Posted by Kim, May 7, 2006 05:23 PM ||¿La originalidad no es su forte, huh?

|| Posted by Erin, May 7, 2006 07:59 PM ||The original Spanish response was in reference to your Dora comment. Crazy Girl
|| Posted by Erin, May 7, 2006 08:20 PM ||No matter where you were responding, that makes no sense.
Advertencia: la gente que la finge es fluida en español hace a tontos de sí mismos. (A saber, Erin)
But, personally, I prefer French:Est-ce que j'un génie, que peut moi suis- dire ?
Spanish is such a...common language, don't you think?
|| Posted by Kim, May 7, 2006 08:51 PM ||I am what Europeans call Lusófonos. I am not fluent in Spanish. Anybody with a highschool education can read and write simple spanish phrases. French is a cliché language for geniuses. Try something original. Learn Icelandic, and then I'll be impressed.
|| Posted by Erin, May 7, 2006 09:33 PM ||Really? I would say 3 languages is pretty impressive for a 16-yr old...I'm working on Italian to make 4...Ottenga una vita, perdente!
|| Posted by Kim, May 7, 2006 09:53 PM ||Kim,
|| Posted by Dani Collins, May 8, 2006 08:14 PM ||You have turned this whole topic of discussion into your life story. No one gives a damn about you on this webpage. You seem desperate for attention, but you wont find it here.
Well, I do believe you've broken my fragile little heart. Whatever shall I do?

|| Posted by Kim, May 9, 2006 06:30 PM ||Frankly, dear Kim, you have abused my hospitality while my computer was down. Leave, and do nor return. Your arrogance is quite annoying.
And by the way, I would almost agree with you -- for the sake of the rest of your family, it would be much better if you were to be givent he option to be in foster care -- it would provide a much more pleasant and healthful environment for your sister and her child, both of whom need a loving, nurturing, supportive environment that would be impossible with you in the picture.
After all, your sister can decide not to have sex. Your being a b*tch seems to be a permanent character trait.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 9, 2006 09:08 PM ||Actually, I'm agreeing with Kim alot. Am I a bad person?
|| Posted by Eric Clemmonss, May 10, 2006 04:32 PM ||No, Eric, that means you're a smart person. By the way,RWR, what kind of "teacher" can't come up with a better response than that? Jesus, I'd do better even under an imminent death threat.Pa-the-tic. No one can phrase a decently challenging come-back, or *gasp* at least one that could even approach insulting me? I'm ashamed to be a citizen of earth...(Oh, please, people, don't even bother typing "we're ashamed you're a citizen of earth, too"..Geez, so predictable).
|| Posted by Kim, May 10, 2006 04:50 PM ||Eric -- it depends on what parts you agree with. There are some points which make sense, but others that I find morally reprehensible -- especially her libelous statement about a pregnancy, which this poor girl's mother has had to publicly deny since her daughter cannot defend herself from malicious bottom-feeders who gleefully attack her while she continues to fight for her life and health.
Kim - it is the obvious reply. On the other hand, I do not believe in the concept of world government, so i reject the notion of being a "citizen of the earth". However, I am more than willing to concede that I suffer from extreme regret that you and I share some quantity of the same ancestral DNA material, which gives you a basis for claiming membership in the same species as the rest of us.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 10, 2006 05:06 PM ||And I must note that the ever-so-moral Miss Kim didn't see fit to comment on the post in which Ashley's mother slaps down the libelous claims that Ashley is/was pregnant. I guess that acknowledging her own wrong-doing would require too much time away from spreading her venom and lies.

|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 10, 2006 05:13 PM ||That's because Kim and her friend Eric are crazy and they know they are wrong.
|| Posted by erin, May 10, 2006 08:42 PM ||Well Maybe the reason Kim & her lil buddy Eric
|| Posted by Diane, May 10, 2006 08:50 PM ||(prolly the same person ) aren't commenting anymore is because they are to busy out being a genuine slut & a deadbeat !!!!
Well Maybe the reason Kim & her lil buddy Eric
|| Posted by Diane, May 10, 2006 08:51 PM ||(prolly the same person ) aren't commenting anymore is because they are to busy out being a genuine slut & a deadbeat !!!! That or her Mommy & Daddy found out she was acting like a GENUINE FOOL on thier computer & took it away from her =)
Who, ladies. Eric is someone I know and have a fair amount of resepct for -- BACK OFF. He is an adult with a responsible job, not a sock puppet.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 10, 2006 09:33 PM ||That's good to know. I didn't think Kim had any friends. As for Eric, I'm going to answer his question. You may not be a bad person for agreeing with Kim, but I would only expect a chauvinist guy to have the same opinion as her.
|| Posted by Erin, May 11, 2006 05:08 AM ||Just reading your comments, I'm Depressed on your behalf. You're the kids who smelled in school, huh?
Erin, how would you connect me and Chauvinsm???lol, and people accuse me of being an extreme feminist.Ah, my aspirations crushed by a dehumanized nobody(NOT!).
Diane-I don't know what to say to you except, Did you even read any of my posts? (Oh, and some people have lives, finals, school, boyfriends, friends, dogs and jobs. We can't be on the internet all day, effortlessly defending ourselves against smelly people).
RWR-So predictable. Somehow, I expected better.Tsk-Tsk.
Dear Eric..Well, I have no idea who he is, but apparently he has good judgement. I assure you, we're not the same person...unless I have a siamese twin I'm unaware of(not likely).
People, people-Come on, think a little. Tell me what offends you so-I'm curious. Unless you're a whore, or a pimp(ugh!), I can't fathom this futile arguments purpose.
Oh, and of course-I didn't bother addressing the whole"mother-denies-daughters-whoredom" thing, because I didn't believe it necessary. Most of you seem to have at least half a brain, and should be aware that she doesn't want the cash flow to be obstructed by the pesky little fetus growing in her daughters unclean womb.
|| Posted by Kim, May 11, 2006 08:17 PM ||Oh Kimmy Kimmy Kimmy Come on Girl ~ Tell me you can come up with a lil better then "smelly" !?! Let me tell ya something lil girl I did read ur post . Thats why I responded to u the way I did ! You have the Nerve to call someone a dehuminized nobody ? Oh Please ~ How bout u go back a re read some of ur posting and then tell me who the dehuminized nobody is !?!
|| Posted by Diane, May 11, 2006 10:24 PM ||Hey Genius, read my message again. The "chauvinist" remark was directed at Eric. Peace out Crazy Girl!
Diane, I agree with you but, please stop responding to her comments. Responding to Kim is like feeding a stray dog, once you feed it, you can't get rid of it. I’ve learned my lesson.
|| Posted by Erin, May 11, 2006 11:51 PM ||Goodbye, Kim -- you were directed not to come back, but did so anyway.
You continued to repeat the falsehood -- so you are gone forever, banished back into your obscure little corner of nowheredom.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 12, 2006 12:11 AM ||Uh, yeah, I get that the chauvinist comment was directed at Eric, which is why I wrote "CONNECT", rather than direct(Do learn to decipher those little things called WORDS). Dear, dear Diane, I refuse to cater to misuse of the English language, so I didn't read very far into your post. I expend so little effort "bantering" with you people...Kind of sad, really. For you, I mean.
|| Posted by Kim, May 12, 2006 06:48 PM ||Diane, Kim is crazy. There is nothing wrong with the way you write. The rest of us get it. Only people that are trying to prove that they are geniuses have to write with perfect grammar. You and I have nothing to prove, because we don't need the attention. I rather get my attention from my friends and family. So, it’s kind of sad she doesn't have anybody that gives her the care and attention she desperately needs.
|| Posted by Erin, May 13, 2006 04:35 PM ||What can I say other than -quit being so predictable. Why would anyone craving attention say something obvously controversial? They would perhaps..Oh, I don't know, shoot down the obviously correct and extremely intelligent perdon who made the said controversial statement in a fruitless(and obvious) attempt to garner praise from Supporters of immortality. Oh, and you're right about one thing(*gasp*), only people TRYING to prove they're geniuses have to write with perfect grammar. Real geniuses aren't Trying to prove anything-we've already established the fact that we're better than the rest of you.
|| Posted by Kim, May 13, 2006 04:56 PM ||Ok Bobby Fischer
|| Posted by Erin, May 13, 2006 06:11 PM ||You should have a comma after "Ok". Just jump off a building.Seriously.
|| Posted by Kim, May 13, 2006 06:32 PM ||Did I hurt your feelings? That wasn't my intention. I was just comparing you to another crazy child genius. My mistake, I thought you would’ve been flattered.
|| Posted by Erin, May 13, 2006 06:40 PM ||Kim -- is it possible you have not gotten my message? YOU ARE NOT WELCOME HERE -- LEAVE!
And Kim -- I am not one of the "Supporters of immortality" -- I believe that it is appointed to each of us to die once, face the judgement of that Chief Magistrate in heaven, and thence to the eternal reward appointed to us.
Oh, and by the way, I've yet to see anything superior about you -- you are just one of the many conceited sixteen-year-olds I have dealt with over the years, believing herself to be superior to both her peers and the adults around her. I've come to see that they are very lonely people, who attempt to warm themselves by pointing to their extreme beauty, extreme intelligence, or extreme devotion to a cause. When they hit college, they usually find that it doesn't matter who they were in high school -- nobody at college likes them for who they are. Typically, they end up coming home at the end of first semester and going to community college, having been confronted with the fact that they have cultivated a personality that alienates everyone they meet.
Look at yourself closely and ask -- am I the sort of person I would like? If you are honest, i believe you will find the answer is NO.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 13, 2006 06:58 PM ||RWR, that's what you'd like to believe...it makes your life bearable, right? OK, well...lol.I won't burst your protective little bubble for now.
|| Posted by Kim, May 13, 2006 11:05 PM ||Erin-Give it up. As I read failure after failure (and recieve my daily dose of laughter), I almost feel sorry for you...19, not-too-bright, obese, and probably scarfing greasy french-fries(fastfood kills!), as you read. Well, let me spare your clogged heart any unecessary effort; admit defeat(not that it was much of a fight-you generally have to exert SOME effort during a fight, and I certainly didn't, although I'm sure you burned off at least some of the dozen donuts you consumed over the day), and bow out gracefully.(Can morbidly obese people bow?).
I looked at your ugly my space pic. I started laughing the moment I saw you. Are you blind? Not only are you ugly, but your heavier than me. Go develop an eating disorder. I think the binge and purge diet will work fine for you. Before the semester was over I played soccer and practiced almost daily. I don't think obese people can even go to school. I currently work a couple of nights a week as a waitress at a famous sports bar and grill. Ugly girls like you try to get jobs there all of the time. We tell them we are not hiring, just to be nice.
|| Posted by Erin, May 14, 2006 06:32 AM ||Kim, I'm done using this site to argue back and forth. E-mail me if you have and further height, weight, or nutrition questions.
|| Posted by Erin, May 14, 2006 06:40 AM ||Kim -- leave, if you value your AOL account.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 14, 2006 12:30 PM ||Tsk, Tsk, Tsk....taking your insecurities out on me.so sad.

I think Kim has a point, and that you only kicked her off because she was beating you in your "battle of wordplay". I hate to sound so childish, but it's just the truth.
|| Posted by Lionel, May 19, 2006 01:09 PM ||Kim was too clever for RWR.
|| Posted by Dan, May 19, 2006 07:14 PM ||In all my time as a blogger, I have imposed two bans.
One was a guy whose posts were Tourettes-like in their use of profanity.
The second was kim, a malicious spreader of false tails who was repeatedly asked to refrain from making her malignant posts.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 19, 2006 11:08 PM ||Hey, it's your blog and you're free to restrict speech on it whenever you can't handle what somebody is saying. Personally, I've never banned anybody, or even deleted a comment for reasons of content (though I probably would if somebody were only posting profane nonsense), but I tend not to be scared by words.
I have no idea about whether the pregnancy is a "false tail" or not, and I'd be surprised if you know, either. The fact that Kim says she was I take as cruel gossip, and that's all. The fact that her mother says she wasn't I take as understandable, but not dispositive. It's irrelevant either way.
It's kind of odd how upsetting you find the cruel gossip, though, especially when it obviously comes from a source without direct knowledge. IF she were pregnant, would that make her death less sad? Shouldn't pro-lifers be even more upset? Or is the loss of a potential fetus somehow less important than the possibility that the poor girl had not lived her life in obeyance of your views on sexuality?
|| Posted by Dan, May 20, 2006 05:37 AM ||Dan--
A teenage girl is attacked and left for dead. She is found alive, and fighting for her life in a hospital. Along comes some obnoxious child calling her (when you cut through all the vebiage) an "ugly little whore who was asking for it". Having been taken to task for it and asked to stop posting on my site, she continues with a series of insulting and unwelcome posts AND accused the victim's mother of lying in order to profit off of her daughter's injuries-- and even changes her method of accessing the site to get around my initial blocking (which I imposed when she made continued unwelcome posts in my absence while my computer was down).
This case resonates with me for a lot of reasons. I've had to report several cases of sexual abuse of student about Ashley's age. Ashley is a kid from the small town where i once lived. Several friends of mine have been victims of sexual assault over the years.
One, age 14, was abducted, sexually assaulted, and murdered thirty years ago-- abandoned in the woods. I remember the rumors about her during the three months she was missing -- including the ones that she was hooking in one of the local touristy areas. I remember the pain such false stories caused family and friends.
And Dan, I don't know where you get all that crap in the last paragraph. What happened would not in any way be more acceptable if Ashley were pregnant. Indeed, it would make the actions of the child-abusing bastard who did this even more sad.
Oh, and this article includes some pretty shocking details of what this son-of-a-bitch professional wrestler did to this child.

|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 20, 2006 08:31 AM ||RWR - We have no disagreement on the sickness of the crime, or its sadness.
|| Posted by Dan, May 20, 2006 03:46 PM ||And at no point would I have ever dreamed we did, Dan. The comments i made about my Darling Democrat in my commentary on "values voters" would apply equally to you -- you are an individual of good will and good values, even if they lead you to different conclusions than mine.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 20, 2006 06:20 PM ||Wow. RWR, I just don't understand why you have a problem w/Kim. It appears as if she's just stating her opinion.She was preety civil about it too, considering the way you and Erin were acting. I don't want a repeat of her situation, so I'll politely ask you to explain.Thanks.
|| Posted by Lionel, May 23, 2006 12:22 PM ||Let's see -- the girl made libelous statements against Ashley Reeves, stating she was pregnant and a "whore". Those are not opinions -- they are out and out falsehoods that were not acceptable to me. When offered the chance to retract at least that much, she refused to do so and then libeled Ashley's mother by calling her a liar who was in it for the money. That was sufficient to get her asked to leave. I explained why the Ashley Reeves case resonates with me elsewhere on this thread.
But beyond that, her "I'm perfect, anyone who disagrees with me is a loser and evil" posts got rather annoying. My intent at the early stage was to make her feel unwelcome. She didn't take the hint.
But the last straw was what i found when i finally got up and running again after my system crash -- Kim had turned the thread into the Kim show. I directed her to leave my site on May 9, but she refused to do so, posting repeatedly after acknowledging my directive to get off my site -- even changing email addresses to circumvent my attempt to ban her. It took her five days to comply with that demand, along with making contact with AOL and Yahoo. I informed her of my intended course of action if she contacted me in the futere.
She contacted me anyway.
And having found something else she posted that contains her email address, I feel pretty sure that my assessment of her personality type was accurate.
http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/post/ttchandra/vpost?id=1043519
But in the end, it is real simple -- I choose not to put up with her, and want her gone. That is my right.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, May 23, 2006 06:07 PM ||Kim and i had a "meeting of the minds. We have worked out the problem (I believe), and i have unbanned her. I don't think either of us have shown ourselves at our best in this whole situation, but i think the most recent exchange of emails was a good and healthy thing.
