More local police aggression news Current rating: 0
23 Nov 2004
the following was fowarded from Sis Carol...
BE Peace! There is a very interesting situation involving a 110 pound African American female, Manisha, and the local police department. Details such as her last name and which department elude me right now. However, the misconduct of the officers is unquestionable. Manisha was told to "SHUT UP!" by an officer ans we she responded she was thrown to the ground and manhandled by several officers who came to aid the arresting officer. Manisha was taken into custody, charged with aggravated battery on a police officer(she weighs 110 lbs with weights in her pockets), resisting arrest, and was later refused medical treatment by the county. After posting a bond the following morning Manisha had to take herself to the emergency room. This is yet another reason for CPRB and why we fight for Peace & Justice. Manisha will be in court today at 3:30 p.m. in courtroom F. Please come out to show your support. BE Just!

Local police are being rapidly turned into demons of the superstate. Do you think they would have helped htis lady get her cat out of tree?

I have been working as a substitute, and I know by my own experience that it caused a lot of group efforts of 'innocent" African American girls to finally force the substitute to be obligated to tell them 'shut up'. So, my condolences to this police officer.

Interesting the biggest victim of Liberal Left Elitism and the having had her own husband harassed to no end by the police, our Anna, is now convinced Manisha is guilty. Anna, have you switched sides?

I don't know by whom I -personally was harassed more. My husband was harassed by police, that is true. I, on the other hand, was harassed by, for example, Sis Carol, who didn't hesitate to place comment about her intentions to use sex vibrator, or ventilator (don't remember now) UNDER MY NAME, in the middle of my debates with other readers after MY PUBLICATION. It is of course great progress that Sis Carol is now posting something under HER OWN name, and I appreciate it. Maybe, just maybe, she would also leave me alone in the future. At least I hope so. Numerous African American girls, due to some strange reasons, didn't allow me to work as a substitute when I desperately needed money. I remember also that at the same time Sis Carol talked to me and expressed surprise that I AM ALLOWED to work with secondary school children. In addition, the work of substitute teacher is actually very similar to the work of police officers, not teachers. That is why I can easily figure myself out in this police officer’s shoes.
So, make your own conclusion!
Switching sides is not my way of behavior. I can though keep my mouth shut, if I want to, especially about politics, as this kind of activities is useless and very unproductive. Besides, I don't like to be either the souse of free ideas for numerous ambitions, or a scapegoat. And that is what I have. Much better, I think, to write books, utilizing my observation and experience. Welcome to my web site (it would be up shortly) to purchase any of them, if you want to get more knowledge about my personality and behavior.

You invite me to make my own conclusions so I will: I conclude then, that you think Manisha is guilty because you think Sis Carol used your name to establish you as the author of some reference about a sex vibrator, and that some African American high school girls were able to overpower you and intimidate you, an adult woman, in a class room. Is that good enough evidence to send Manisha to prison for 10 years? I also conclude I'm very glad you aren't on a jury.

The only reason Anna even made a comment here is because Sis Carol's name came up. She hasn't a clue about this situation, as is obvious from her psychotic rambling comments.

Anna is mainly interested in self-promotion and when she isn't doing that, will invent reasons why she has to drag down the work of others. Her fabrications are always cast in terms of ridculous accusations based on the fantasies that run around between her ears. Other readers already tune her out here, because she so rarely makes any sense. I just wish she had kept her promise to leave and not come back to IMC, but this was unfortunately just another tall tale of the sort she regularly tells.

Dearests, I promised only NOT TO participate in politics. That was all. Do you have in life any other business than to try to belittle me? I don't think so. I-adult woman wasn't able to deal with this number of African American girls because their behavior WAS inspired and SUPPORTED by schools administration.
Maybe, this police officer was also the same way the victim of provocation as I was. I have seen a lot of police provocation against Black men, but not women. As a matter of fact, according to my experience Black women (mostly under age girls) are usually the tool to manipulate Black men on the behalf of White males power. That is the result of my observation of life in Chicago ghetto and Chicago public schools.
The very fact that Sis Carol wrote such dirty comment under my name and you are still trying to accuse me in God knows what means only that either you are also participants of provocation against me, or you are NOT HAVING ANYTHING ELSE TO DO OR TO THINK ABOUT AT ALL The second guess is much less probable. So, the first one is correct. Dearests, you are very mean, of course, you don't hesitate to use any dirty tricks, and you are doing your best (as Sis Carol tried) to please these (or this) who put you on my case, but, for sure, you are much too stupid and narrominded to manipulate me in ANY sense. It means, by the way, that trying to disgrace me you are only disgracing yourselves. In the future all comments under names 'regular reader' , 'random reader' and 'local vocal' would be ignored by me, whether these are only pseudonyms of Sis Carol or other (maybe also African American females) are included also. My suggestions is get a life outside of dirty provocation, you are not going to promote yourselves messing up with me.

Anna,
You really need to stop fabricating lies about people. I've watched you do it repeatedly here. Anyone who doesn't do what Czarina Anna wants ends up being trashed by you -- for no rational reason at all.

Your latest diatribe against Sis Carol is just the most recent example of your failure to connect with reality. There is absolutely no basis for your allegations against her. Use the Search function available on the left sidebar and search for "vibrator."

There is only one story that comes up, besides your earlier accusations against Sis Carol and it is this one, which is clearly NOT Sis Carol:
http://www.ucimc.org/newswire/display_any/20383

This comment was posted by one of the trolls (other than you) that occassionally come here to stir up trouble. You'll also note that it has been hidden by the editors, who are smart enough to figure out that it was a completely bogus posting.

It looks to me like all you've done is take a comment that was obviously designed to stir you up, that is obviously fake, but is one that you are also illegitimately using to make false accusations against a respected member of our community.

Since you have committed what is clearly libel and/or possibly slander against her and have published your name and address, I would highly recommend an immediate apology on your part to Sis Carol over your mistakenly identifying her as the source of the comment, which you have falsely attributed to her. I am not an attorney and this is not legal advice, but I would say that you have left yourself wide open to a lawsuit for defamation.

You might certainly be able to plead insanity as a defense, but you'd be better off just eating crow and hoping for her Christian forgiveness at this point.

I also think it's about time the editors start cracking down on your abusive practices here. You have a story up right now that is little more than advertising. That is against the website use policy here. You also seem to be totally unable to keep from attacking other users in your postings -- nearly every one contains an insult against somebody. If we do not have to put up with Jack Ryan anymore, why should we have to put up with your very similar behavior?
Everybody, Please Chill Out, Play By the Rules

OK, it's time to chill out.

regular reader, I can see why Anna may irritate you, but you're also edging up to the line. Since you haven't gotten into a habit of this, I assume you will try to play fair here, too.

As for the recent posts of Anna's that you say violate the no advertising rule, we do allow reviews of books, etc to be posted, along with links that can include someplace where people can purchase them. The one post of Anna's that has several pitches in it to buy her book is edging up to being a problem -- asking people just once to buy your book should be sufficient in the future. However, since she has not made a regular practice of this, I assume that it was not her intention to break the no advertising rule and will let it slide for the time being as long as she limits her selling pitch to just once in such reviews.

Anna,
I really don't see what your comments here have to do with the original story. I do note that this does follow a trend of you making comments to posts just because you have some kind of grudge against the person who posted it or is mentioned in the story and that your comments have pretty much nothing to do with the topic, but you almost always have some sort of mean-spririted insult included in your comment.

Please confine your comments in the future to the topic being addressed. Please refrain from ANY more personal attacks, starting now, because it's likely that such comments will be hidden in the future. You've been warned about this before.

By the way, I am the one who originally hid the comment that regular reader dug out of the hidden files. It was NOT made by Sister Carol, so please stop embarassing yourself by claiming that it was. Besides, that is something that is likely to get your comment hidden if you bring it up again.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation in making UC IMC a place that encourages people to post and discourages behavior that discourages people from posting.

ML, I have serious reasons to think that the comment in question was placed by Sis Carol. As I saw her in WEFT building just before it was placed and she behaved like a very irritated one. I, of course, can't be 100% sure about it. I am also not sure that you knew who placed that comment under my name, as you denied knowing it, when you got it hidden after my request. How come you are so sure now that this comment wasn't written by Sis Carol, ah, if you didn't know then who placed it?
I don't think that my comment to the story has nothing to do with its content. I, of course, don't know for sure what happened during the described above event, but I have seen a numerous provocations, commited by unified underaged African American girls. They were trying to provoke people (me, for example and other also), who had authority over their behavior to be rude to them, giving them no other choice, and, in the case of males, being obligated to touch them. After the successful provocation they claimed violations of their rights to be treated politely, and, in the case of males, even sexual assault and battery. I have not onlu been a substitute in Chicago for a long time, but I have been also working with other substitutes, who were males in many occasions. I am not sure, of course, that this story is the story of exactly such nature, but, pertinent to my experience, I have reason to suspect at least 50/50. So, my information was and is very MUCH RELEVANT to the content of the article, whether you or other authors of comments like it or not.
I am still not going to communicate either 'regular reader' or other authors of comments, whom I have mentioned in my previous comments. I have simple way of behavior, which means I don't like to waste my time and nerves, communicating people, whose way of behavior I don't approve and like. There is simle statement from Old Testament, which sound in modernazation like following: "Don't make to another human being what you don't want to be made to you".
This is the basis for me to excommunicate 'regular reader', 'random reader' or other, whose treatement of me is outside of regular courtesy rules.
One more, with all due respect, I don't think that you can with assurance tell me who placed this comment under my name, unless, of course, you have done it yourself, which I doubt very much.

By the way, ML, 'regular reader' gave not a bad idea, and, if I finally get proofs who 'regular reader', 'random reader', 'anon', '^', 'local vocal', etc. are I would follow it. If those, who called me offensive names here on this web site and utilized 'libel' not 'slander', as they were abusing me in writing, are going to continue, I might really start law suit against them, having obvious proofs of written defamation. So, they, of course, can continue to do what they are doing until they make any kind of mistake, like Wendy Edwards did, obviously disclosing her pseudonym, and then I would go after them. As they are not municipal entity, as Champaign Public District is, this pleasure and/or entertainment, which they might have pouring dirt on me, would cost them quite a bit of money in a short while of time. That I can guarantee.
So, the choice is theirs.

ML, I didn't advertise more of my literary production and other creative production than a lot of other people on this web site. And, if their articles are published, and this is more than 50% of everything, which is posted on this web, my articles have the same rights for existence, whether 'regular reader', etc., like it or not.

Look, I hadn't planned to engage with you again. But first, it's pretty obvious who some of us are, so it's hardly a matter of making "mistakes." Based on what I've seen of you, you' seem to be pretty rude without any provocation. So I'm not sure what the point of rambling on about "underaged African-American girls" is. Somehow, it's not hard to imagine why Sister Carol might find you irritating.

Let's get this straight. I don't care about your website or your poetry. The only reason I commented that one of your drawings looked like a collection of Disney characters was because you'd previously made a nasty comment about how another poster's work was inferior to yours. Had you been less chronically obnoxious, I probably wouldn't have bothered to post at all.

This is an open-publishing newswire. This means that the submissions vary widely in topic, content, and quality. However, one thing that most posters here have in common is at least a minimal level of civility.
