Subj: Re: [TXREDRIV] Horrible Red River Cartoon Site

I hate to step in but some of us have been trying to get it taken care of 
the site with little help. We need to band together and start a letter writing 
campaign. I know this is not genealogy and I apologize but everyone should be 
aware of the sight. It is really hurting the county and it's residents. It is
run by Ernest Henslee who works for attorney Mark Lesher from Clarksville.
They  are supporting Royce Abbott, David Hamilton, Kristy Gray, and Edwin
Kelsoe who  is attempting to put a landfill in Avery. Ernest is supposed to become
one of  Mr. Abbott's deputies if he wins the Sheriff's race.

Just clarifying, Thanks, Sorry again, Lynn

Isn't it funny.  Mrs. Lynn Stephenson is trying to get a letter writing campaign together to shut this site down.  Well, Lynn, I hate to tell you but this is a privately owned site, and there is a little thing called the 1st Amendment to the Constitution of the United States standing in your way.  You would think that Mrs. Stephenson would be in favor of the right to free speech, but it seems that even though she spews her undocumented lies, she believes that this site with all it's documentation is "Really hurting the county and it's residents."  Well Lynn maybe I need to do some open record requests on the expenditures at the City of Avery.  Don't think I can't. 

I own this site, Mrs. Stephenson, and none of the above people named in your e-mail tell me what or what not to do with the site. None of them are affiliated or own any portion of it.  I fund this site myself. 

That is not how you do things Mrs. Stephenson, writing your letters to the editor of the Clarksville Times on the time of the taxpayers of the City of Avery.  The taxpayers of the City of Avery even fund your little "Avery News"  that you put out.  It seems to me that if anyone should be shut down, that it is you  because you  are not  putting a penny into your  endeavors.  When it gets  right down to it, I

would bet that the Tax Payers of the City of Avery are funding everything you do including the time that that it takes you to do it. I  bet that you aren't spending any of your own money.  I do know that a long time ago when I worked on your personal home computer, that the Citizens of Avery paid to have it repaired because you and the Mayor wrote me a check off the City account.  Remember that, Mrs. Stephenson? 

How about it Taxpayers, do you think that she should spend your tax dollars putting out a newspaper called The Avery News at the city's expense spewing her political views.  Seems that she uses city time, city computers, city printers, city paper, and the City's name.  The Mayor and her even pay for her personal computer repairs out of city funds. What else are the Mayor and her highness paying for at your expense? I have been told that she mails out things with the water bills sometimes.  That is using your postage and tax dollars to promote and pay for her personal political endeavors.  Don't any of you care about what she is doing, or has she got all of you thinking that what she is doing is legal. You all do realize that "Maggots" fund their operations with your tax money, so they don't have to spend their own?  That is another trait of a "MAGGOT"!

Think about all Your Tax Money she's spending on her personal political agenda!!

Maybe Mrs. Stephenson should prove by documentation everything that she has stated in the e-mail above.  OH.....  you can't can you.  It is more of your MAGGOT lies and propaganda.

First, I am not employed by Mark Lesher.  I do contract computer work for him. Ask anyone, I will do computer work for just about anyone that wants to pay because I own a computer business, DUH! Well, except the "City of Avery".  She called and asked me to work on theirs, but I refused. I did one time long ago, but quit because I couldn't stand the cesspool!  I also don't like "LIARS, or MORONS" and I especially don't like "MAGGOTS" and there's a couple of the two mentioned above that stay in the Avery City Hall.  You decide which one is which!  So Lynn Stephenson is a bald faced liar when it comes to that statement!

Two, She is right when she says that I am supporting Royce Abbott for Sheriff, because that is easily seen by my comments on this website. I support a change in the injustice in this County, but as all of you can see  Lynn is for the injustice, and the "Maggots".  She is even against the First Amendment to the Constitution which is "Freedom of Speech", except when it comes to her.  "The first trait of a "MAGGOT"! 

As far as the candidates she speaks of... They just happened to think that answering the questions put to them by the citizens who want to be informed about their positions on the issues is a good idea.   You should realize that over 7,000 readers a month would get anyone's attention; it did theirs.  Well, I guess she included the candidates in her bald faced lies, because they accepted the offer to participate in a candidates forum. 

If you will notice, the ad space on the Main page is offered free of charge to any candidate, and David Hamilton just happened to take the offer, and that is all there is to it.  So where is your documentation proving what you said in the e-mail above Mrs. Stephenson. So, you are again a bald-faced liar.

Avery City Secretary Lynn Stephenson thinks that she should be in control of everything, when she should really be wearing a straight jacket because she is a real control freak.  Is it true Lynn that you own husband is afraid of you?  I agree with one of my readers that you would be more productive of your time chasing cars on the streets of Avery!

I neither support or oppose the landfill, but I do believe in a person's right to do what they want with their own property. If anyone deserves to have a landfill next door it is Lynn Stephenson. She spews enough lies and garbage to warrant having her own personal landfill. 

What's bad about it is some people actually believe what she is saying politically.  They say, "There is a Sucker born every minute!"  Guess they don't realize that she is a "MAGGOT"

If I were the taxpayers of the City of Avery, I would be looking at how much time and taxpayer money that is spent by Mrs. Stephenson in publishing her political views.  She needs to realize that this website is totally funded by myself, and I spend my own money and time.  That is a hell of a lot more than she can say, because she is spending the Taxpayers time and money funding her little operations, but none of you seem to care, so you must agree totally with her if you live in the City of Avery!  My expense is covered by me, and protected by the first amendment while hers is covered by whom......?

Isn't it time to take account of what Lynn Stephenson is up to?

Do you really agree with everything she is spending your money on?

Surely that is not a correct statement, do all of the residents of the City of Avery want their tax dollars spent in this fashion?  Maybe you should call and let your city councilmen know that you don't.  She is a salaried employee, not an elected official, and you as a taxpayer do have a voice about the endeavors of your city secretary.  You do after all pay her salary.....  don't you!!!!  And you do vote in elections for your city councilmen and the mayor don't you .  I believe that gives you a right to voice your opinion to them, and they should listen..  or does it work that way in the City of Avery?  Government telling you who and who not to vote for, and spending your tax dollars doing it sounds a little like communism, or nazi-ism doesn't it?

And, one last thing,  I don't know where she got this "Deputy" stuff.  I have enough to do taking care of my disabled wife, my computer business and this website.  If anyone out there takes care of a  totally disabled person, they know that alone is a full time job, not including the other two. Hell, Lynn would probably stick her loved one in a nursing home to rot! I will tell all of you that I have never been in law enforcement, and am not sure I would want to be even if I had the time, but I am flattered she would say that, because it is after all a noble service to the people.....  if it is allowed to be done right using the peoples rights under the constitution! 

Remember folks, she was all in favor of "Sheriff gReed" and "Spankie", and probably loves Valerie Varley, and Perkins (although I hope even Valerie has some taste Perkins....I'm not so sure about, especially if she would model his panties for him). You need to take a good long look at what you got with all of them, and you know how she supported them in the last election.  She and the Mayor paid your tax dollars to repair her personal home computer.  Just who are the bad guys here?  Who are the "Maggots"  Now, do you think Lynn Stephenson is really such a good person to be telling anyone what to do about anything, especially yourself and your vote? My god if you do, you must be extremely desperate, or gullible!

How much of Avery's Tax Dollars is she Flushing Promoting her personal Politics and Agenda's, and you are paying her a Salary and Personal Computer Repairs on top of the expenses to do it?

7:30 p.m. 1/24/2008

I just received a telephone call from Lynn's husband.  He somehow got the idea that I wanted to talk to him, because that is about all that he could say is "Do you want to talk to me? Do you want to talk to me?" over and over.  At first I thought that it was someone that had been referred to me with a problem, but I finally realized what he was saying, and who he was.  What he finally said to me was that I did not want to talk to him face to face.  I don't recall wanting to talk to him at all because I would have called him if I did.  He didn't want me to talk to him, because he would not shut up long enough to carry on a conversation.

What everyone needs to realize is that I don't like corruption,  I do not act like I am 10 years old, and I do not go around threatening people. 

What I do is hire an attorney, and let him beat you up in a court of law.

Lynn Stephenson started this sir, and she needs to back off, because there is nothing you or anyone else can do with threats or intimidation to keep me from finishing it if she does not shut up, and back off on everything,  and I do mean everything  (you can fight your battle over the landfill, I don't care about that)............ but the lies and garbage about everything else had better get silent, and I mean NOW!!!!! and it better STAY that way from now on!   If you don't want it, and can't take it, then stop dishing it out. Cause I can dish it out just like your can, only it seems that I do it a little better, and I still have a lot more to go. Just how far do you want it to go?

Progressive Thinking?

I have read one thing here of late that talked about me telling people they were not progressive thinkers, and that they were stuck in the mud, when it came to progress in this county.  I decided that I would talk a little about Progressive Thinking.  When those two words are spoken together, what do you think of?  Well, I think of someone who is thinking about the future, or a forward thinking person.  I also think about someone who wants progress, and prosperity which usually go hand in hand.  A Progressive thinking person is someone who sees things that are a problem, and is causing Progress to be hampered.  They then use their minds to think about what can be done to alleviate the problem, and allow progression of the situation toward the prosperity of the future.

This county is stifled.  You can see it in the statistics of the loss of population over the last 30 years.  This in turn causes a loss of tax base, because after all land or property does not pay taxes, people do!  If you do not have people, and the taxes are not justly equal, then you have some people paying little or no taxes while others are sweating under their tax burdens.  Because of this type of treatment, people leave the county, (and those with the money and control purchase the land, paying fewer taxes) and move elsewhere which is a "Catch 22".  That is what is happening here in Red River County.

Right now we have a "few" people who own tons of land, and pay paltry taxes compared to the rest of us.  A good example is the person funding one of the candidates in the sheriff's race right now.  I would bet that on a per acre basis, this person is paying very little taxes compared to the little people who own property here.  Why is that?  It is because we have people out there that don't want "progress", and every time something comes along that is "progress" they jump on the mule and try to beat it back with their stick.  Why don't they want progress?  Who really knows, other than they like to keep things the way they are, which is non-progress, and unjust taxation of the people.  "The Rich get Richer, and the Poor get Poorer." 

There are very few jobs created in this county.  "Wal*Mart" left, and created a big hole in the sales tax base, and the City of Clarksville had to cut back on services to the people.  No one liked that, but it happened.  People blame Wal*Mart for leaving, but I believe they left because they had problems in this County that were not being corrected, and even with their big corporate image were unable to correct them and make money at the same time. What business would want to remain in a situation like that.  Business is there to make money, not just service the community.  People loved Wal*Mart when they were donating big checks to the county, and charities, but they have to be able to make money to do that! So, I don't blame them for leaving knowing what I know about the situation.

Anyway, progressive thinking is what it is going to take to get this county moving forward again, and people willing to listen and try new things.  As long as we stand by and say "don't change" this or that, and do nothing there will be no progress.  As long as people who know absolutely nothing about economics and progress are listened to by the people, nothing will change.  As long as some people stand up and tell people who have ideas to help, the County Progress and those people tell the progressive thinkers that they need to "MOVE OUT OF THE COUNTY" rather than people being open to progressive thinking, Red River County will always be stuck in the mud, in the same old rut. So you must decide to listen and try to change, or be the same, or worse than now years down the road.

Wouldn't it be better with Jobs, and Prosperity for all, than having a few in control, taking in all the money?  The decision is yours, when you go and vote.  Either vote for a real "change" to progressive thinking that will make this county better or the "hollow change" that will evaporate right after the election, and keep it the same or worse.  Which do you want?

How can there ever be progressive thinking and prosperity, when people here tell those progressive thinkers that they need to "Move out of the County"?  Anyone who tells "anyone" that they need to "Move Out of the County"  needs to have that stick up their butt pulled out of the MUD!

Veiled Threats

Friday January 18, 2008

I thought that all of you out there that read this site might like to know what it is like to be threatened by the people you are writing about.  Late this afternoon my telephone rang and as usual I picked it up.  I totally recognized the voice on the other end of the line, because as they forget I was the Crime Stoppers Coordinator for about 6 months, and talked with law enforcement regularly.  This voice was someone who during my time as the Computer Person for the City, and County, worked for the city.  The person doesn't work there anymore, but is employed with the county now. 

I just wanted to tell all of you that it was not a threat on my life, but I was told that they had some plans for me. 

I would like to tell them that if they "Really" had plans, that they would not be so stupid as to call and tell me about them.  Do they really think that anyone that reads this website could not figure out at least what "Department" that this "Veiled Threat" probably came from......  DUH, lets see.  Who has been the target on this site for the last year.......Hummm  The Commissioners Court?  No, they were written about when they looked the other way as Sheriff Reed, and Chief Deputy Larry Spangler were exposed as "Criminals", but they haven't really been written about that much.  Welll.... how about the County Annex?  No,  They have already had theirs through the Star, and even though those old scars probably give them a little pain on cold days like today, they more than likely aren't going to block their caller identification and then call lil ole me to make a "Veiled Threat"  Letsss seee....  Just who could it be?  Damn, I bet I know who it is!  It's the Sheriff's department, or Valerie's Office.  Those are the only two Departments that the website has really been onto in the past year, and with the Sheriff's Race gaining momentum, they probably want to "Put a little Scare in me!" 

I hate to tell you "BOYS" and I even use that term gingerly, cause I don't even think that you qualify as that, but you need to stop using the County's telephones to make these kinds of calls.  You see that all you did was PISS ME OFF! 

I would never forget a recent voice...  I worked for 30 years talking on.....  you guessed it "a telephone".  That was my livelihood, and I had to remember voices, because ("ask a telephone man")  when you talk on the telephone to your co-workers constantly you get to where you don't forget their voice, and those that you worked closely with, you will probably never forget.

I had conversations a lot with this so-called law enforcement officer quite frequently, so don't think for an instant that I would not remember an Investigators Voice.

This is not the first call I have had of this nature in recent weeks, (not from the same individual) but I decided that if you are going to "DO SOMETHING" to me that has to be so "VEILED" that I would just let everyone in the world know of your plans.

Guys, just to let you know, I placed a call to the telephone company and talked with someone who is going to take care of my problem for me.  You now, need to think about how it is going to look to the people of this county and the world if you decide to try to "make good" on your intentions. 

Response to those people "offended" by Name Calling on this Website!

The old saying is "A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words".  Well folks, I would like for you to take a look at one of your Candidates for Sheriff Mark Perkins.  I have called him a "slob" on this site.  Now I have a Picture of where all you women out there who are purchasing "Panty's" manufactured by Investigator Perkins are coming from.  They very clearly show the location of where those panty's you are wearing are so carefully and cleanly manufactured.  Do these pictures show that they are worth 1000 words?  Was I correct in my description of Investigator Perkins or not?

If it looks this bad on the outside where the public can see it, what do you think it looks like on the inside where they cannot.  I hope that you ladies washed those panty's in bleach and hot water before you wore them.................

"Perkins Panty Palace"

Beautiful isn't it!!!

By the way, Valerie, I don't think the "FOR" on that Black and Yellow sign is legal.....

You gonna send big boy a letter and tell him to fix it?

Response to Sheriff Reed's Article in the Clarksville Times

1/17/2008

I am writing this to All of the people of Red River County.  This is in response to Sheriff Terry Reeds article in the Clarksville Times dated 1/10/2008.

First, I would like to say to Terry Reed, that I don't believe that you narrowly defeated Mr. Abbott, and I never will.  There are still some discrepancies with the Electronic Voting Machines that I believe were utilized that got you those extra votes.  Why do I believe this?  Because you and your deputies were already down at the Sheriff's office before all the votes were counted celebrating.  That's right, I know about that also.  How did you know that you had defeated Mr. Abbott before all the votes were in and counted unless you had some "INSIDE" information that no one else knew about?  Think about it voters!

Next, I would like to remind Sheriff Reed about the "HEARTFELT" response that you sent this website.  You know what they say Sheriff, if you put something out on the Internet, it stays in Cyber Space Forever!  Take a look at this Sheriff and tell me that you have accomplished "ANYTHING" that you spoke about in this letter.  I don't think that you successfully did anything that you said you wanted.  We Should also Remember!  I gave you the opportunity to look into a lot of things that I responded back to you with that the citizens of this county deserved to have looked at and taken care of.  But, did you look at me as a "VOTER" or a legitimate "CITIZEN"?  The answer is "NO"!  You picked up your badge and ignored every word that was spoken to you.  That response I wrote to you was not just "ME", Sheriff.  It was every "VOTING CITIZEN" in this county!  What did you do about any of it Sheriff?  The answer is "NOTHING"!

You Sheriff, had your chance and you "BLEW" it.  The reason you blew it was you had a Chief Deputy who was and still is a "CRIMINAL".  You kept him on the payroll, and let him lead you down the "CRIMINAL" path.  That is not "MY" fault Sheriff Reed, it is yours.  You had a "GOLDEN" opportunity to "CLEAN UP" the "CORRUPTION" in Red River County, and "YOU" chose to turn a blind eye to everything.  I believed that you were a "PAWN" of the "MAGGOTS", only it is "YOUR OWN FAULT" that things turned out as they did.

When you are corrupt, as your department was and probably still is, you have people working for you.  Some of those people have something that you and the "MAGGOTS" in this county never will have.  Some of your Deputies, and Jailers, and Staff have something that "YOU" had at one time and chose by your own free will to give up.  Most "HUMAN BEINGS" cannot turn a blind eye to "CORRUPTION" but even though you "SAW IT WITH YOUR OWN TWO EYES", you chose to ignore it.  You chose to turn your back on the "HONEST" citizens of this county.  You looked away from the light of your own volition, and chose to walk into the darkness!  Those Deputies within your department right then, and some are still there are "HONEST", and some of your jailers are "HONEST", and some of your staff are "HONEST" and they still are.  They go about trying to do their jobs, but you and your administration and the "MAGGOTS" who were leading your department around by the nose kept them from doing their jobs "HONESTLY".  When you do that to an "HONEST" person sheriff, the pressure builds up inside them, and sooner or later cracks form, and they begin to "LONG" for "HONESTY".  But who could they turn to in your administration?  "NO ONE!!!!!"  Their main leader had turned to the "DARKNESS" and instead of helping them do their jobs for the "HONEST" citizens of this county like they wanted too, you "HINDERED" them from doing their jobs. 

Eventually, with all the cracks and pressure that built up, information started to come out.  You "TREATED" your employees with "DISRESPECT".  It is hard to keep up a lie when there are "HONEST" individuals involved, and they began to leak information to me, and this website.  You "HAD" and still "HAVE" some good people Sheriff Reed!  If you had just not turned away from the light to the darkness....  IF you had just let them do their jobs "HONESTLY".....  If you had not become one of the "CRIMINALS"......  IF...IF...IF... If only you had kept what those "HONEST" people in your department have, you could have been proud of your accomplishments.  You could have been someone that people looked up to and respected. 

You talked about the "SLANDEROUS Lies"!  The Unfounded Slander that has plagued your administration since the beginning.  Sheriff, If there was one thing on this website that you could have "Proved" was slander, you would have sued me.  I know that you tried.  You and your family talked to Lawyers, but they would not touch your case.  The facts are there to back up everything I have written on this site.  Every thing that has been said is a fact that is backed up with "DOCUMENTATION and the TRUTH", and no matter what you do or say, it will always be out there in "CYBER SPACE" that you, Sheriff Terry Reed and your Chief Deputy Larry Spangler are "LIARS", "CRIMINALS", and "THIEVES" and there is absolutely not one thing that you can do to disprove the facts!

Why is it like it is now Sheriff?  Why do you feel the way you do?  Why are you empty inside?  Because, those Deputies, Staff, and Jailers and this Webmaster and the voting public (those citizens you have let down) have something that you no longer have............. something that you have lost by turning to the dark side.  Something that will come back as the realization of your situation sinks in that will eat at your soul for the rest of your life. And, that is...

A Conscience

or a

Conscious, it just depends on how you look at it!
