Hello:

I don't want my columns posted on this website ever again. If one of you nutjob lunatic members pastes anything I've written, I want it removed from your site immediately. Since you refuse to give me the opportunity to respond to the slanderous lies your members spew about me, you have no business claiming you have the right to post the columns.

Your refusal to allow me to answer the charge of anti-semitism with equally harsh language reveals both your contempt for the 1st Amendment and your complete cowardice as a political discussion forum.

You guys like to think you're so smart, but you can't stomach it when the same shit you hurl at others comes back at your. I will not tolerate the anonymous slanders of lying chickenshit cowards.

Please do not post anything written by Shawn Redden or from studlife.com

If anyone knows if there are any existing threads from this source, please send me the URLs and I will delete them.

Thanks,

Jim

[Support Free Republic]

I would like to take a moment to ask for donations.

It should be clear to all conservatives by now that the left intends to demonize us. They don't just disagree with us, they hate us. And worse, they want to get other people to hate us.

Places like Free Republic drive the left batty.

Please donate. Thanks for your consideration.

To be kind to him, if you know of where he can some good anger management counseling you might recommend it to him.

[Paul Atreides]

I'm happy to say that I've never heard of, nor read anything by, Miss Redden.

[wimpycat]

I hope you're merely doing this as a common courtesy.

[mountaineer]

On behalf of my fellow Wash U. alumni, my apologies for this whining sack of spit.

[Bonaparte]

No big loss, Jim.

A guy who thinks the 1st Amendment entitles him to posting privileges on a privately owned and maintained website that receives no government funding is probably not going to have my ear. And judging by his choice of words, his post would probably be pulled before I got a chance to waste my time with it anyway.

Does cutting and pasting this count...?

[Hacksaw]

Hey Shawn, would you feel better if you knew that I have never read any of your articles? From your hysteria-laden email, I can't see anything I have missed.

[vbmoneyspender]

I'm almost afraid to ask what kind of site 'studlife.com' is.

[prairiebreeze]

Wow, he's a real charmer isn't he. Not to worry Shawn. I'm quite certain that even if I had the misfortune to stumble across your blog I'd easily stop reading after the first sentence or two.

You'd be surprised at how many people who think that, just because a website exists, they are allowed to post whatever they please on that site. This was especially true immediately after the fall of the WTC. I know of a website on which clear rules were posted, detailing that political discussions were not to be posted, and some decided to do so anyway. When the posts were removed, they whined about censorship. And, yes, those who violated said rules were the ones who said that America was getting what it deserved.

[KC_Conspirator]

I have a question Jim. Can an author of an article request to have their words removed or are his writings property of the student newspaper at his school? Furthermore, if the student newspaper is tax payer funded, I would assume that information and articles, inclding this guys editorials, are open for public comsumption and posting.

I know that this is not worth fighting over and you have a website to run, but I just hate caving into college radicals.

"If one of you [sic] nutjob lunatic members pastes anything I've written, I want it removed from your site immediately."

There you go, Jim! Just prevent any of the small minority of our "nutjob lunatic members" from posting his articles! Problem solved!

[mountaineer]

I believe Shawn is a big Dennis Kucinich fan, judging by what I'm finding through google. It figures. The spaceship leaves in ten minutes, Shawney. Be on it.

[Diogenesis]

Dear Shawn Redden,

WTF are you talking about anyway?
You have a vapid site, and an empty argument.
Who would want to quote you anyway?

When, and if, you grow up, come on back to the real hood.

[RikaStrom]

Goodness that's quite the screed. Such vitriol, such language. . . such maturity.

[Jim Robinson]

Here's a copy of the post that got dear Shawn banned:

To: El Conservador

I had no idea the so-called War on Terror (aka: Bush's fascistic and racist quest to erode American power and endanger American citizens all over the world by squandering our resources and occupying 2 countries half-a-world away that hate our guts) was succeeding!

Thanks for the update. Sometimes it's important to get the upside-down Alice in Wonderland view of things! Aside from the chaos, corruption, and killing, things seem wonderful. What brilliant strategic planning by the ruthless Nazis in the Pentagon!

I'd love for you to TRY and refute one of my claims in the piece, you crypto-fascist lunatic. Since you're here, though, you're too stupid to make a real case; it's far easier to smear those (like me) who are far smarter than you.

Only a complete imbicile could suggest that the PNAC is a conspiracy theory when it's actually been put in place by the architects of the plan.

What makes you think that Wolfowitz and Rummy and Bolton and Pearle and the gang have changed their mind? What evidence to you have that I'm NOT 100% correct? Either defend your position, or stop lying about mine.

One or the other, punk

Finally, and I'm assuming you're completely ignorant here (something I feel safe doing): Arabs are semites, too. So perhaps it's you, and not me, that's the real anti-semite in this 'discussion.'

You're the one who cheers on their deaths and has no problem violating the Nuremburg Tribunal to do so. You're the one who doesn't seem to care that more than 10,000 Iraqis have been slaughtered on account of Bush's illegal war crime.

Oh, and keep your eye out for my piece in Stud Life on the 13th. You and your claque of xenophobic neo-Nazis at freerepublic get props for what you really are!

Hugs and Kisses,
Shawn Redden

By the way, the title of the column in question is:

Megalomania as foreign policy
