Anything comong from the mouth or pen or keyboard of Jim Campbell is

sociopath.

This is precisely what I've been arguing against. If Zoom said the sky was
blue, would you say it was green?


NO but I would damn sure verify that it was blue and never ever accept
his word for it.

The difference is that if YOU told me it was blue...I would probably
accept your word for it until you were proven wrong. Even if proven
wrong, I would probably accept your statements in the future unless
you were proven to be lying repeatedly and for your own purposes. In
other words, I accept honest mistakes but not intentional
fabrications. Once I lose trust in your statements, your credibility
is gone and everything you say in the future is suspect and not to be
accepted. That is what has happened with many people here, we have
experienced the lies and fabrications of the past from Campbell and
now all credibility is lost.

No credible publication should be accepted when used as a personal
vehicle for attacking ones perceived enemy's in print for public use
without providing the victims a venue for debate or to counter the
story. Campbell has used his printed magazine and now his web based
publication for just that purpose for a long time. When people
started using the usenet to counter some of his lies, he tried to
silence them with lawsuits and threats of lawsuits.

So if people here don't seem to accept anything he prints, it is not
without justification.


If it was just Zoom, I'd be highly skeptical. It's not just Zoom.
