To ars:

Mr. Barton Hunter Johnson (alias Sri Changi Saar) has a right to post
under a made up name.  I don't have any problem with that.  But, it is 
also my right to post his correct name so that all can know who is 
really making these statements.  I have done so politely and without
making any threats.  If Mr. Johnson receives threats, he should report
them to the police but I am giving this warning: there is a poster on
this newsgroup who is making anon threats that he will harass 
individuals and make it look like these threats are Scientologists.
This is not the first time and if it happens, report it to the police.
Steve Fishman made such threats and ended up in jail for it.

Freedom of speech works both ways.  Many on this newsgroup make false
accusations about the subject of free speech on this newsgroup as it 
furthers their hate mentality.

I say that there are many from this same faction who are trying to 
prevent free speech from applying to Scientologists.

When Andrew Milne first posted the name of [name deleted - RN] alias Tarla
Star on the net, she and Ron Newman attempted to remove him from the
net, a clear violation of his First Amendment rights.  This certainly
showed that it is not freedom of speech which these two are advocates
of, when it applies to someone who disagrees with them. 

I have only published Barton Hunter Johnson's (Sri Changi Saar) because
I do not like his underhanded tactics and I feel that it is my right
to make him responsible for the things that he says.  I don't care
if he shuts up or not, but now all the world can see who is behind
the posts.  

Just because I disagree with him and think that he is underhanded 
(and worse) doesn't mean anything but that.  It is the opinion of 
one person and I still live under the Constitution of the US, I can
look him up and publish his name.
