If you go back and read Fred Halls e-mail to you he continually contradicts himself. With the keyboard problem and his not knowing why he was deactivated. He states in his first e-mail to you how much he respects women and molestation victims. Now why would he say these things if there were not a reason to do such? The keyboard problem can be address here with his Firpo Carr post made about the same time.

In the post he mentions ( http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/forum/thread.aspx?id=34186&site=3&page=2 )
Jesika basically called him a three year old. Then IMO he fires back with the scathing post some of which was not edited out and his words can still be found in the original thread, To Jesika. With everyone's reaction given he had almost 3 hours to change his post it seems to me there is NO way he could not know how his post was seen and interrupted by many.
Your argument of how many have hurt people here and them being deleated it seems that just about everyone here should be deleated if it came down to nasty posts or hurtful remarks made to one another. In my opinion.
And IMO your comparing You Know and his witnessing death for us all ( don't compare) as all JW's do and we once did as well because we believed so strongly that then entire world would end and we all hoped that millions would die.
Fred Hall's post was imflammatory and strongly worded. He posted and picked on Jesika he said things that I am sure would have hurt you. I strongly believe he was targeting Jesika to get back at her for the 3 year old remark. For him to say now he has no clue as to what he wrote just does not make sense to me. I don't buy a word of it.
I do believe there was an another post made by Fred Hall. This one was completely deleted it described the rape of a seven year old and her dress being shredded. Then something to the effect of Bill Bowen saving her. Please correct me if I am wrong someone. But those posts together made it obvious to me that he targeting abuse survivors and being as nasty as he could about it.( Above sentence is wrong the post was made by Bleep and not Fred Hall ) Yes, he made fun of Bill Bowen in the same posts. He has taken issue with Bill Bowen and his ways.
He is not the only poster to take issue with Bill Bowen and his cause. There have been some hotly contested debates between Bill and posters here. Or without Bill and posters taking issue with Bill Bowen. I have not seen those posters removed from posting.
There have been people here who have questioned my story. These people are still posting they did not make light of a horrible situation they just stated (as I guess Fred Hall could have) it just seems too much to me or I find that hard to believe. Thats their opinion. To believe or not to believe is everyone given right. In this cyber world people have the right to their opinions but to lash out make fun and light of someones situation past or present is harsh, hurtful and demeaning to all survivors of sexual abuse.
(I have tried to post this for the last 40 minutes. For some reason my computer is acting up and wont let me post. Hopefully this one will go through.)
edited to add my mistake of mixing Fred Hall's and Bleeps posts.
