The Last Post

This will be my last official post on the issue.


This is because I am tired of banging my head against a brick wall.




It is impossible to have a civil, reasoned debate with a person who:


- Preaches democracy yet exhibits a communist state approch to her blog and her editorial views. It reminds me of a state sanctioned newspaper used for propaganda purposes.


- Tries to pass off opinion as fact, but has provided absolutely no evidence or proof to substantiate her major "facts". Show us the evidence to convince us, Saxon, not just your slanted version of how things are and how they should be.


- Refuses to admit errors, despite the ironclad, overwhelming nature of the evidence against her statement or fact. Her response is always: someone else's fault, a mis-remembering, a difference in recollection or "I can't explain it, that's just how it was." Either that or something along the lines of "yes I made a mistake but it doesn't change anything" (see her post "whats a few cents between neighbors"


- Relies on hearsay, conjecture and assumptions to make arguements, and then is too pig-headed or blind to even alter her stance when the truth is staring her in the face.


- Realizes nobody cares about her original complaint about garbage, so rounds up anyone in the community with a beef against Larry to join her to change the issue from that of garbage to one of leadership.


- Exhibits a holier-than-thou attitude about the board and then makes a statement that is a bold-faced lie. This one hasn't been publicized but will come out sooner or later. This one is not retractable, not explainable, and not justifiable.


- Apparently lives by the credo "Do as I say, not as I do" as she has been unwilling to set the example and pick up the trash that is left on her garbage pad, now 4 days after pickup.


- Complains about the Board having the nerve to tell people what to do, despite the apparent mandate supporting them, yet she had the nerve to go about "telling them they needed to offer the job to all the owners." among others


- Posts a blog alienating all board members, and property manager, by calling them names, referring to me as egocentric, hysterical and "foaming at the mouth" and falsely accusing people of threatening her, yet she is shocked and/or appalled when someone returns in kind with shameless and vindictive.


- Achieves her alleged "goal" yet continues on the vendetta.

In closing, I leave Saxon Harding with some advice:


If you want to convince people, you need to supply facts to back up your suppositions and opinions. Acknowledge mistakes you make, and correct them.


Burying your head in the sand and pretending the facts don't exist makes you look foolish, and also makes you look like a bully. Who is the real "Intimidator"?


Assumptions are dangerous, and you have made a LOT that are not even close to reality. They will come back to bite you at some point before all is said and done.







I will keep the blog site open for others to comment and will create new topics when topics are needed to avoid long "comments" sections.


Feel free to use it or not.


In the end the truth will come out. Sooner than you think.
