Kane not caught at anything, it was Greg ... Kane CAUGHT at false accusation and deception
Sharon Ispay wrote:
Because you obsessivly bash, harass, and falsely accuse Mr. Hanson in nearly EVERY post, in nearly EVERY thread, EVERY day, every week, every month, every year for over 5 years now. Kane wrote You are lying. A recent poster who was one of his intended victims just posted here. Now THIS one you can't claim as a Dan sock without looking even more ridiculous than when you tried it with others, like Chuck. I can hardly wait. Kane wrote Don, if my last contact with him is any indication, not only is very well and very sane and especially carring for family...ALL family, that I hear he's still doing all he can to help families stay together. Fancy that. |

Greg, it's a 'must read.' Gloating or Ill Wishes vs Threats of violence
"Michael©" wrote in message . 97.140... "Ron" wrote in : "Doug" wrote in message ... Absolutely not. You can tell the absolute truth and lose a suit because you chose to tell it to the detriment and loss of the complainant. Hi, Kane, Nope. Truth is an absolute defense against libel. If the defendant proves the statement to be true in a libel suit, he prevails. Period. Absolute defense. If there is one thing you should have learned in posting to this news group for as long as you have Doug, "Truth" is a matter of perspective. Fact, on the other hand, is what is the ultimate defense. Truth is an absolute defense in the United States and Canada to defamation (libel and slander). Un uh, Michael. That's a myth based on folks ignoring qualifiers you'll nearly always see in the authorities referenced, that actually say, "in almost every instance truth is an absolute defense." Michael is correct. Truth is an absolute defense in libel suits. That the truth happens to cause detriment to the plaintiff does not in any manner, shape or form mitigate the absolute defense of truth. No Doug, its not. Fact is. Truth is variable. If truth is a variable, it is not a fact. LMAO At CPS High, truth is ALWAYS variable. ===================================== truth + noun (pl. truths /trooths, troo&ulth;z/) 1 the quality or state of being true. 2 (also the truth) that which is true as opposed to false. 3 a fact or belief that is accepted as true.

Greg how is it that you went on as though I had not written this post, failed to answer any questions from this post, and resorted to obvious snipperage or simply ignoring? Then asked questions with such obvious answers as to be ludicrous .... on your part? Because you obsessivly bash, harass, and falsely accuse Mr. Hanson in nearly EVERY post, in nearly EVERY thread, EVERY day, every week, every month, every year for over 5 years now. Nearly every message about Greg "the perv" Hanson is warranted and based not on false accusations, but information posted by Greg himself. |

But hey, I'm willing to entertain a differing viewpoint, assuming of course that you are willing to cut all the childish antics and behave like an adult. You're like a little child. You can't even understand the simplest principal of the truth being a fact. What part of 'a fact' didn't you understand? (snip the inane) Think, Ronaldo! How foolish you look by not understanding a simple concept such as the truth is a fact! I guess that you just are not capable of comprehending the point. Let's see if I can help you out in this. The FACT is mikey, that truth IS variable, depending on each individuals perspective and personal belief structure. What you may believe to be the "truth" I may find to be unsupportable and therefore not a fact. Its the reason there are two different words and two different definitions. "Truth" is a product of an individuals belief structure and may or may not be based on the available facts. "Truth" is a leap of faith, the belief that what you hold as being the truth may or may not be supported by what is. "Fact" on the other hand, is. Its provable, supportable, immutable. It can be interpreted in different ways by different people, but it still remains as it was found. Our perceptions of the meaning of the fact is what changes, not the fact itself. Truth is a matter of philosophy. Fact is a matter of what IS, or IS NOT. Facts cannot be changed, Truth can. I hope this was helpful for you. I have taken the time to attempt to enlighten you to a simple but difficult concept. Even if you are not capable of comprehending the concepts involved I do not consider it a waste of effort for several reasons. 1. Others read here as well, and they may be able to understand what you fail to. 2. You may indeed have that little light bulb inside your head flash on with the comprehension of a difficult concept and thereby have realized one of the basic constants of the universe. 3. Even if you cannot find it in yourself to expand your understanding of the universe, its been kind of fun poking holes in your belief structure, even if just for a second.

Not very truthful no matter your perspective. Think, Ronaldo! How foolish you look by not understanding a simple concept such as the truth is a fact! I guess that you just are not capable of comprehending the point. Let's see if I can help you out in this. The FACT is mikey, that truth IS variable, depending on each individuals perspective and personal belief structure. The truth is not variable. If you believe the truth to be variable, then there can be no truth. There is only one truth or fact for something; all the variables are inaccurate untruths. Someone's perspective of the truth may be different than another's, but the truth is unchanged and has but one perspective, fact. What you may believe to be the "truth" I may find to be unsupportable and therefore not a fact. Its the reason there are two different words and two different definitions. "Truth" is a product of an individuals belief structure and may or may not be based on the available facts.

It can be interpreted in different ways by different people, but it still remains as it was found. Our perceptions of the meaning of the fact is what changes, not the fact itself. If you find the truth unsupportable, it is not the truth. The truth is fact. After all perspectives have been removed, you are left with the truth, the fact. Let me dumb it down for you Ronaldo Jr. Let's assume we know that your true birth name is Ron, a fact and the truth that has been proven. You go to a party and introduce yourself as John to everyone there. To them the truth is that you are John and they may even swear to it under oath. Their truth is based on non-fact though and is not really the truth, so no matter if it is different and truthful in their perspective, it is NOT the truth. No matter what perspective they or anyone else has, the truth and the fact remain solid and unchangeable; you are Ron, not John. Truth is a matter of philosophy. Fact is a matter of what IS, or IS NOT. Facts cannot be changed, Truth can. When the truth changes, it wasn't the truth to begin with. I hope this was helpful for you. I have taken the time to attempt to enlighten you to a simple but difficult concept.

Even if you cannot find it in yourself to expand your understanding of the universe, its been kind of fun poking holes in your belief structure, even if just for a second. You attempt to belittle me and make a fool of yourself in the process! So tell me Ronaldo Jr., oh great kindergarten graduate, philosopher extraordinaire, to which philosophical theory of truth do you ascribe, correspondence, pragmatic, coherence or deflationary? Likely to which ever one knows that "true" and "Truth" are not the same word, not do they have precisely the same meaning. In the 'true' we can include "fact," as a given. In the word "Truth" we invariably are faced with the very argument that Ron tenders. A fact will remain a fact, "true," no matter what "Truth" someone interprets it by. No matter what "philosophy," is used as the paradigm to view it through. We'll always be faced with being confounded and confounding others by our arguments of what we see, or otherwise sense in fact, the true. Truth is an assessment and always will be.

That is his opinion, his theory, but not a truth. You continue to obfuscate the fact that "true," and "truth" are not the same thing in all instances. Sometimes "the truth," which is subjective, is 'fact' which is totally objective. A fact cannot change. The truth can. Scientific research is a wonderful example. Do they ever find the "truth." Finding what is "true" and a "fact" is much much harder, and the business of science with the goal NEVER MET. It is found. Truth is fact. Declaring it to be so isn't making it so, Michael. Truth is that effort of ours to convince each other we have the facts..what is true. We call it "truth" so as to give it weight. Truth is not true. It is the interpretation of what we wish would hold still and be immutable, but never does. No atom holds still, just as no element of argument does. We do not know if atoms remain motionless at absolute zero because it is impossible experimentally to reach that condition yet. Yes, I know. You are about to prove my postulate. You're stating that no atom holds still is not true, truthful or a fact. Until we have the facts my "truth" about it is a good as anyones, Michael No atom has to this point been proven to hold still and that is the "fact." I look at that and postulate my truth from it. Until you or others can provide the proof you just mentioned is being sought, I have the truth. You ignored the example I gave to Ronaldo. I did? How is it I am commenting on it? You commented somewhere on the example of names at a party? Sorry I missed your comment on it. Now I'm stumped. Must be tired. I was dragging a three hundred pound former "institutional" barb wire topped cyclone fence gate around the garden this morning to close the last gap in the elk and deer fence. You'd be amazed where I picked that up, Michael. It was a long haul. I might remember what you are referring to with prompting though. 0:- Was it to complicated for you to comprehend I comprehend you are now being an ass, when in fact you were offered a chance to debate. Well, since you think my given name is Asshole. . . Given name? Goodness, that would have been rude and even cowardly of me. I apologize. No call for such. Was there? or did it just hurt your head to think? See above. I love this as an example that "True," and "Truth" are not the same thing. You just told us your "Truth," but people in the real world know that how a "true fact" is presented by another through his own filter system may not (and usually DOE not) precisely describe the "true fact" to an exactitude. If it is not exact and provable, it is not a fact nor the truth, just an opinion, a theory. Then the point I made about the atom stands as the truth. Not yet "true," but not disprove. The atomic weight of Helium is 4.0026. The periodic table is not a product of nature. The name and number is a product of man. That is the truth, a fact and true. That we agreed to call "something" by a name and number makes it true for the universe we live in? What would God call it? If someone believes differently because of their perspective, their education or however, that does not make their version true, the truth or a fact. They would be foolish to disagree in such a petty way to a perfectly workable CONSTRUCT we have worked out to try and measure and differentiate. No, your example now in how you present shows this. The ignoring of the similarity, but the essential difference of "true," "truths" is perfect. Here is the logic to consider. Is it true that it hurts me head to think? If not why did you ask rhetorically? It was nothing but sarcasm, and you know full well. That was not apparent to me, and I am telling you the "truth" about my thoughts at the time. How am I to tell when you are being sarcastic or mean it, and when did sarcasm escape from the boundaries of defining 'truth," true," and the "facts?" You meant to say I couldn't think. That you put is sarcastically makes NO difference to you meaning an intent. Unless of course I am wrong and that was NOT your intent. Tell me the TRUTH, Michael. Did you intend your sarcasm to mean that I am less capable of thinking than you? Was it a lie, or is this your "truth," according to how you see me? It was sarcasm. I didn't miss that. Sarcasm usually doesn't exist in a vacuum. It is pointedly used to make a point. To make a claim. Did you or did you not with to convey that I am diminished in my thinking capacity? What is the truth of your meaning and intent? You KNOW the answer. That is "truth." What is "true" about my head and thinking about complex issues, is that on the contrary if I have a headache a sure fire way to ignore it or make it go away is to work on difficult mental problems. Now that is MY truth, but it is not YOUR true. To me it is "true," and to you, NOT "true." By the very nature of it not working for me as it does for you, shows that it is not fact. It just may work for you but, your headache is not something tangible. That is philosophical. I have two gold caps. You have none (metaphorically speaking). Does your not having them make mine no longer true, truth, a fact? And no, my headache is perfectly tangible. It can be measured. I can give it a number...0:- and in time get others to accept that I measure headache in this way. My periodic headache table has about three kinds of headaches. I call one SUPERDUPER 007, another I call, DAMNED ANNOYING DISTRACTION AND WHY DON'T I JUST GET A GOOD ONE AND TAKE A DAMNED PILL AND MAKE IT GO AWAY number DOG. Yes, that's a number as far as I'm concerned. I just have to get others to agree to a number being a measure for my periodic table. Your age for example, is (x) years. That is a fact. It can result in a different number depending on what means you use to measure (variable and perspective), but you have seen (x) numbers of sunrises (cycles that are fixed as a fact). Yes, x years. Wrong. I've lived underground for a time, and many times lived where the sun did not rise for up to six weeks. Sorry. That's MY truth. Did it shorten or lengthen my life? Are you getting this now? What I think I'm getting from you and Ron is a more simplistic version of thought on this matter. I will discuss this little bit of arrogance and hubris in a mo, Michael. And with it a little lesson. You need to go deeper. You spent so many years with children that you attempt to function on their level when dealing with difficult matters. Not so. I wish there had been more time with them to learn better how to think more clearly than adults normally do. They are uncluttered. Direct. Plain and clean. Actually I spent far more hours with adults. Children have only so much attention they should be giving adults, and they need learning time on their own, with only the required level of safe supervision. Otherwise they can be stunted or sidetracked into weird thinking and behavior. On average, any give day I would spend about 10 hours in sleep and my personal toilet. shower, dressing etc. I'd do about 3 hours commuting, and at least three hours in writing for publication. Then at most three hours with children. The rest would be taken up in professional assessment of observations, review of mental health records and updating them from the latest interactions with the children. A great many adult activities there, Michael. Now as to your attempt to make Ron and myself out as simple. Time and again I learned this lesson the hard way. One's value, capacity to produce, ability to discover important things in life are not confined to the "educated." Not even those that test high on designed tests. No, I've had some wonderfully embarrassing moments when I discovered someone that was quieter than I, less educated had deeper insights into something I thought I knew well. If anyone is shallow and simple minded here, Michael you are for trying the ploy with Ron or I. Truth is an abstraction...a construct. "True" is an immutable fact. Truth can have many faces, but only one factual one. When that one is found, the others become opinions. Your second phrase is incongruent to the first one. Fact is not Truth. And it cannot be because what you know to be fact today, can be found to have been mistaken tomorrow and that happens all to frequently to those with too much assurance they have the fact, in an immutable sense. Name a couple of immutable facts. I. See the above for the atomic weight of Helium. Those are agreed upon. II. The ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter is pi. Pi is a name for something. What is pi, but a number. Do numbers exist in nature, or did we dream them up as a tool to measure by agreement? III. The speed of light is 299,792,458 meters per second in a vacuum. What's a meter? The speed of light is also 23 clomensiases. We just have to agree on that, and use other numbers to provide fractions to work with to make it a perfectly fine fact we can use in the study and application of physics. You mistake the truth for true. The best we can do with your example is to hope we are right that light travels at all. That's a construct of OUR nervous system, not a universal truth. It could be that "light" holds still, and everything else moves in relation to it. Then explore them in the literature, and see who agrees and doesn't, and you have your answer about "truth," and "true." The above truths, facts and truisms I made are agreed to by everyone. Thank you for proof that "truth" is agreed upon. Now what is a fact? What is 'true?" They only become truth WHEN WE AGREE. What if we don't. Your truth would have a bushman and his family rolling on the ground with laughter. They know damn well the only really true thing is that when jackals call a certain way it will rain within the next 24 hours, and they are more often right than WE are. Now care to show me how that which you requested is different by a perspective? See all the above. Truth is an agreed upon concept as is what is "true." If your argument is that it's true when WE agree, then what does that suggest to you, if we don't? Kane PS, and while I like to use on line link accessible sources for argument, Michael, I make it a point to not just cut and paste, and pretend to my great wisdom, I give my sources credit for their's. You never heard of these before today, Michael, now did you? More of your ignorance to the fact that others are educated far beyond what you ever were? I don't believe you. Nothing in your posts have ever suggested you have either a classical education, or are very well self educated. Are you using the psychic hotline now? I said IN your posts. That's all I can go on. I see. You don't understand or can't comprehend something so it must not be true, or others couldn't possibly comprehend them because you can't. ...snip **** you Michael ... snip LMAO, no thanks. Sorry I meant **** yourself and I mean that most kindly and sincerely. If I knew your name I would not post it here regardless of who you are what you do, or how much I disagree with you. You are a coward that wants to excuse yourself endangering people for your being ****ed off at me. Grow up. My name is Michael. That's not your full name. And when you use a nym and attempt to out others that do what does that say about you? I'm in no way endangering anyone. We've been over that. If someone says they want to kill you, which way do you live, and I give them your address? Cite facts if you wish to accuse me. **** you, most kindly and sincerely, Michael. Apparently the Oregon State Police didn't see any danger from me either or they would have acted. I didn't ask them to. I asked them to look at it, it's now on record. You try to pass yourself off as a chess player? I asked you a question and you didn't answer. That told me you did not understand the strategies of chess. I asked if you knew what pawns were used for. My post to OSP was a pawn. It clear the way is all. And if I have calculated correctly I will never have to use the way I cleared. By the way, I'm not ****ed off at you or anyone here. Sure. Read your FAQ on the group. Unless there is a real definition for a kook and it isn't derogatory, and you really think that cretin, once a TRUTH, since it was medically defined, was a kindly and loving or even neutral label you are one very simple soul. And no one but you is fooled by that silly claim above. You can't argue the issue. I'm doing very well. Actually you are not. You can't even understand how human constructs agreed upon don't create "facts," just agreement. You seem incapable of doing what you claim I'm doing. Is that your "truth" Michael? Don't run and prove me correct, answer my question above about how the facts and truths and what is true can change by someone's perspective. I'm completely at sixes and sevens, as I don's see that's what you asked. You earned that report to the OSP and you know it. I earned a false report from posting my opinion on this group? I didn't report your opinion. I simply posted your post. Others can decide if it's an opinion or not. Your opion about what others would make of it is your opinion. I certainly don't think I did. Of course not. That was low even for you. It was far less than you deserve for your comments about Don's wife, and your callous disregard of her and of him. You put Don Fisher's family at risk, stupid. Kane is thoroughly hated here and you know it, and there have been people here that threatened death, and you know that. You are trying to link the two of us. You want a pat on the back? That's cowardly. No matter how stupid and vile and how much of a jerk you have been I've done NOTHING to put you in danger, or even hint at it. Coward. Bringing innocent people in by NAME is **** spewing. And you know it. You should be ashamed. I doubt you are. Some troll asshole came here and ran up a list of Greg's civil court case..mostly just normal bull**** that many of us have had to deal with. I found that, despite my dislike of his nonsense I would NEVER do that kind of cowardly thing. Unless it referred directly to an argument between us that HE willingly participated in I would have NOT business listing all his and Lisa's legal hassles. I told the ****ant troll off, and of course Greg comes back claim I'm the troll. Hell, knowing his buddies it was more likely Dennis or some other ****ant. That was cowardly of whoever it was. It was cowardly of YOU to name individuals here that are totally uninvolved. I didn't put your mother's name up here, did I? You ****ant. In my position would have done exactly the same? Absolutely not. I would have said **** you and left if I couldn't handle the heat in the kitchen. Bull****. You instead put Don Fisher's name up here and that of his wife. You are a coward. That's unacceptable here. I have never mentioned his name or her name here. Other than to **** on those that started that crap. You are exhibiting the morals of a Greg. Shame on you. And that is the truth. 0:- http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&l...C+pragmatic%2C +c oherence+or+deflationary&btnG=Search Learn the art of the 'paraphrase,' if you are going to "borrow," and not attribute. How does one paraphrase names of the philosophies of truth? describe some central principle and use it for a label. I'm required to write a paragraph to ask a question? That goes against everything I was taught. Short and to the point. Nope. One word can be descriptive. Do I have to teach you to paraphrase? Try a thesaurus for **** sakes. Somewhere along the way surely you learned to use one. I can't believe I have to tell a highly educated man how to paraphrase. I can't believe you think someone should have to paraphrase a simple, single question! I don't. I am glad you didn't, because it made clear that you copped it from a website you looked up real quicklike to lend credibility to your bull****ting arrogances. And they were and are not listed only as proper nouns. Or did you miss that in your google hits? I didn't use Google. Haven't I told you Google is not my friend? Nope. And it's your best friend when you want to dissemble. I've watched you do it, then put the phrase to a search and found the article you copped from and put that up here for you before. You have such a Gregorian memory. There are a number of ways to "label" them without naming them. Same goes for chess. That game you suck at? How do you know? You have some special psychic line to the truth, do you? Perhaps the same one you use for me. I don't have one. I based what I claim on what I believe I am seeing. Nothing more. I don't know for fact, I made an educated guess, an opinion based on your not wiling to play a round here amongst our discussions. Totally abstruse. The truth 0:- is that you never played me at chess, Michael. Frankly I doubt you have ever played the game or if you did you gave it up. I have been playing for many years. I'm willing to put my money where my mouth is. Play me, and if you win I will never call you Don again. If I win you will admit I am accurate and truthful in referring to you as Don Fisher. You just bought a **** you, stupid. A bit of concentration on facts, what is true, and the truth would serve you well in your on line exchange using the tactics of chess with me. Except for the fact that, I'm not playing a game with you. I'm just stating my opinion on matters here, right or wrong. No, you are not. You lie, and you put up what you won't. You are full of ****. Now go ahead and show what a coward and weakling you are and call me Don again, stupid. My truthful, factual and true statement makes me a coward and weakling? It would not matter. If I told someone that was hunting you where you were it might be truthful and still cowardly of me. I would not do that. You have demonstrated you will and did. You have linked my name to his, then you put his wife's name up here. Various ****ants here have tried to put up his address by claiming I am him and claiming I'm in Hood River. I'm not but it serves me to have people think I am. I can buy IP dial up from any damn place in the country that I want. And you can't find a Don Fisher in Hood River. There is one in Bend, but again, he's not me, because I'm Kane. I do notice you didn't call me a liar. Thanks. I was lax. You attempt to deceive. And you do it for nothing but your ****ant cowardly ego...you got your ass kicked by both Dan and I and you do NOT like that. Do you have anyone here that classifies you by profession and wishes to hurt you or your family? Read Dennis' sock bull****, stupid. Then tell me that you don't mean harm to Don Fisher. That crap has gone on here for years. And you take a great risk one of those assholes will act out, and YOUR opinion will be reviewed as to content. Other such assholes have in the past and you have that information. So how do you justify helping those assholes with trying to link Don Fisher to me, whether or not it's true or NOT? ****ant. You are just as dangerous as Greg, possibly moreso. 0:- You are out of touch with reality and that's what you need to continue to be able to push your stupid agenda. Which appears to be finding a way to threaten others because your ego is threatened. Just my opinion...and so's this : Grow up. -- Michael© 24 November 2006 11:32:21 PM Laws alone can not secure freedom of expression; in order that every man present his views without penalty there must be spirit of tolerance in the entire population.

Greg, it's a 'must read.' Gloating or Ill Wishes vs Threats of violence
If there is one thing you should have learned in posting to this news
group for as long as you have Doug, "Truth" is a matter of perspective. Hi, Ron! Interesting concept. Nonetheless, outside of the newsgroup, in matters of law, truth is an absolute defense to libel actions. A libel is, by legal defination, a false statement. So, if the statement is true, regardless of whether the truth is inflamatory or defames the subject of the statement, the statement is not libel. British law -- and to some degree Canadian law -- holds that a statement that is true but damages the subject of the statement is libelous. This led our Founding Fathers to reject the obvious danger to freedom of speech/press in this doctrine, since, in theory, the greater the truth the greater the damage done to the subject. In the United States of America, truth is an absolute defense to any libel action. As it should be. Because of our country's tradition of freedom of speech and of the press, libel laws even protect false statements under certain circumstances. For instance, members of this newsgroup may be, arguably, public figures in that they have thrust themselves into the public eye by nature of their contributions to the forum. It's a gray area. If they were to be ruled public figures, then a FALSE statement, would still not result in a judgement of libel if the defendant could prove a lack of malice in making the false statement. (In libel law, malice is defined as a statement written "with reckless disregard for the truth.") For libel to occur, the statement: 1) Must be false. 2) Must be done with malice (in the case of public figures, only) 3) Must be directed toward someone who is identified (an anonymous poster would not have the recourse of libel action because they are not identifable) 4) Must cause damage to reputation or other damages....professionals or others who depend on their reputation would be more likely to prevail. The requirement for a showing of malice exists partially because of the US Supreme Court's recognition of deadline pressure experienced by newspaper reporters. They often escape a libel judgment because their FALSE statement was made under deadline pressure, where they claimed they did not have the time to verify the truth. A monthly magazine, however, would not have the same defense. For instance, Kane's retraction in another thread in this newsgroup would only mitigate charges of malice in a libel lawsuit. It presupposes that the one bringing the libel lawsuit would be ruled a public figure and therefore required to prove malice. If the trial court ruled the target of the libel to be a private citizen, then the retraction would have no legal weight. A retraction does not eliminate the libel, it can only be weighed when considering malice. There are also absolute privledges in libel statutes -- again, because of our country's dedication to freedom of speech and of the press. For instance, if a FALSE statement about someone is made in a courtroom that untrue statement can be published without the subject of the false inflamatory statement having recourse for libel. Libel law is very complex and often changes through case by case decisions. However, some elements remain fundamental and absolute. However. the requirement that the statement be false -- thereby establishing truth as an absolute defense -- remains fixed and absolute. Fact, on the other hand, is what is the ultimate defense. Not in libel lawsuits. The USSC chose the word "truth" in defining the absolute defense to libel. The word, "absolute" itself, like "truth," has specific meaning in law. Michael is correct. Truth is an absolute defense in libel suits. That the truth happens to cause detriment to the plaintiff does not in any manner, shape or form mitigate the absolute defense of truth. No Doug, its not. Fact is. Truth is variable. No, Ron, truth is an absolute defense to libel lawsuits. |
