Rick,
This is just more evidence of the real reason ucneighbors was kicked off
of the Penn system! This would be a clear violation of the
university's policy on open expression and their rules on the use of
electronic resources. Do you see how Cassidy's falsehood about me
threatening lawsuit was directed to stir anger at me instead of his own
embarrassing abuse of power??
I didn't get them kicked off. Kyle Cassidy, abused the Penn system from
the first day of ucneighbors. Why did he wait so long to tell his fans
that I "censored" his party, if it was actually true? (If you hadn't
forwarded his pathetic attempt to direct anger at me, I wouldn't have
known about this lie!)
For google, ucneighbors can be a private party. But this was always the
problem with Penn's support establishing ucneighbors and growing their
subscribers! Penn legitimized and promoted ucneighbors as an open
public list serving this neighborhood adjacent to their campus. I know
it was promoted by the School of Communication and probably their entire
propaganda machine, like UCD. If it had always been a google group for
Cassidy's gun fans would it still be around today?
Cassidy continues:
"Everybody else, I apologize for the disturbance in what has otherwise
been a relatively fistfight free six years."
People here know that this public listserv completely changed after
Cassidy, West, Siano, V, Lamond, etc. left with their various
deceptions, group straw man strategies, and personal attacks! They were
obviously always the source of civility problems on the public list!
Cassidy needs to continue deceiving his fan base into believing that we
fight on the public list, like the way they used to levy personal
attacks at several of our subscribers, including me!
When they were here, it was like having a half dozen Rush Limbaugh's
attacking anyone who disagreed with them about any aspect of the local
neo-liberal agenda!
Rick, you need to keep this post, and make sure that all the people who
you know from ucneighbors understand the problem here. They are part of
Cassidy's gang, and not an open neighborhood list. Somebody could be on
it for years, and the first time they bring up an important issue that
goes against the neo-liberal agenda and plutocracy; they will be silenced!
I can't explain the university' s policy on open expression to their
members. But someone should tell the truth to them that ucneighbors was
set up in violation of university principles, and that Penn is not
actually terrified of Glenn Moyer. Penn's written policy is good, but
I'd like to see them live up to its high principles instead of taking
silly bogus awards for them!
Power to the first amendment,
Glenn

Rick -
I can only assume that you're forwarding completely irrelevant posts
from other mailing lists to UC Neighbors in order to see how much
patience I have.
Now you know.
I view this mailing list as a party in my living room, people show
up, they have fun they talk about things, and it's my job to make
sure everybody's comfortable, that the punch bowl is filled and that
nobody drives home drunk. Different people have different
personalities and it's a host's job to be tolerant but ultimately
people come to this party because they have certain expectations
about the type of behavior they can expect will go on here. When one
person continues to annoy the other guests, after repeated warnings,
it's time for them to move on. There are other parties in the
neighborhood that are more raucous than this one.
Here's what I'll do -- this is the website I used to create this
mailing list: http://groups.google.com <http://groups.google.com/> --
you can create your own neighborhood mailing list and send me the
URL. I'll post it here and anybody who wants can join and you can run
it as you see fit.
Everybody else, I apologize for the disturbance in what has otherwise
been a relatively fistfight free six years.
