Election 2010 / News BREAKING: Mary Volm For City Council?
Posted by Matt Davis on Tue, Dec 8, 2009 at 10:36 AM
Mary Volm, an outspoken backer of the effort to recall Mayor Sam Adams, appears to be lining up for a run for city council.
- VOLM: RECALL BACKER, FORMER SPOKESPERSON FOR THE CITY
Just Out editor and publisher Marty Davis is also a member of the so-far 14-strong group. She is yet to return our enquiries.
I called Wurster on his cell phone, asking if Volm is running.
"I don't have that information," he said. "You'll have to get that directly from her."
I asked: What's her number?
"I have to go," he said, hanging up.
Volm was also involved in a high-profile limo rage encounter last year.
The city auditor's office is also yet to return a call asking whether Volm has filed for public campaign financing or as a candidate for any seat. Usually it puts out press releases on the same day.
Update, 11:19
"Not yet, but likely. Seat 3," writes Volm, answering the question whether she's running, over Facebook.
Also, the above photo is from Facebook—Volm asked that it be attributed.
Update, 1:36
She's blatantly running. The website maryvolmforportland.com has the following placeholder:
- HOLY DAZZLING ARRAY OF COLORS, BATMAN!
It appears an announcement is pending Wednesday.
Update, December 9, 11:34:
The site is live:
Mary Volm was born here in Portland, Oregon where most Portland 'baby boomers' were born — Wilcox Memorial (Good Sam). As an Oregon native, she chooses Oregon for the same reasons we all do, it define all of us — Oregon, and urbanally, Portland, is the best place in North America to live, work and play.
Urbanally, it define all of us, apparently.

I'm not sure. Perhaps we got cut off. Although when I tried re-dialing his number it went to voicemail. I've asked to arrange a candidate interview with Volm as soon as possible.
7
So Mary Volm's relationship status on Facebook says she is in a relationship with Jasun Wurster. They're dating? And yes I took a screenshot in case it gets changed.
8
News-wise, I don't really see how that's in the public interest. Perhaps you can tell me what the public interest angle might be?
I ask, because I've made quite a point lately of asking why a politician's personal life bears public scrutiny. I think there's a respectful cut-off point:

Mary Volm is just the candidate to bring some fresh air of justice into a stagnant toxic pond of city hall.
The media remind me of piranhas when it comes to community organizing. Wurster is a friend of mine and one of the nicest people I know, not sure about the phone call but I am sure its a minor miscommunication, try not to take it personally.
Saltzmans rusty seat is long over due for some Volm charisma. Other than stating that Saltzman is Chris Humphtries, what has he done in three terms in seat 3?

Although ya' gotta admit, o Studio: if she wishes to be taken seriously, that is one rotten photo.
12
if ABS is indicitive of the quality of the supporters that Volm has, then her campaign is screwed. I think some of those sentences were created using a Madlibs book. They just don't make sense.
13
Mary's photo is perfect. She's the "Cat woman" that's going to save Gotham City (AKA Portland, OR).

@mattdavis
I just thought it was interesting, but you're right it isn't really newsworthy. Newsworthy-wise is he running her campaign for the seat?

Hey Mercury, I'm a blonde. Can you delete my double comment? Thanks.
We need more women working for the city--Oregometry. I'm not a literal person.

@Rich Bachelor- There should be a load of pics to sort through for all dynamics of a campaign. If indeed this was a campaign?? I think she should run for mayor, but whats my opinion?

@Janelle: Do you even know who Cat Woman is? She's not the savior of "Gotham City" by any means. Selina Kyle is a jewel thief and vamp. Also, you're not a literal person... What exactly are you then? A zeitgeist maybe, or a collective unconsious with an internet connection?
20
I was just being snarky, Janelle. It's nice to see a woman throw her hat into a race that has a male incumbent and two male declared challengers.
Where are all the 2009 Emerge Oregon program graduates for this council seat? Or are they all in Washington and Clackamas Counties?

Can someone ask Dan Saltman's girlfriend if he is goign to run for reelection? Seeing how he has not announced, but is thinking about it. Or better yet how about Brendan Finn's lover? Because we all know that Dan has not announced yet to prevent viable Public Financed candidates from running for his seat.
If your goign to ask Volm's boyfriend, then is it acceptable to ask any family member of an unfilled candidate about their political decisions based on a FaceBook fan page? Quick Matt, get Nick Fish's 5 year old daughter on the line about what her daddy is thinking of doing.
As for BlackedOut, there seems to be no limit to what you will do to attack people you do not agree with; way to be a man. If you have such a beef with Volm's boyfriend, then why not:
(1) woo her with your charm and steal her away from him,
(2) run against Mary Volm for Portland City Council,
(3) get the Mercury to sponsor a cage fight between you and him, Thunderdome style!
The truth is that Mary has more intelligence, class and courage than you will ever have.

You mean wurster wasn't forthcoming with information to which he was entirely privy? How odd.
This is great news. In a city where, if you don't follow super closely, it's hard to distinguish between city council candidates, I now know who not to vote for.
Maybe volm can gather the same high-quality staff, props and volunteers the ant-Adams campaign used: right-wing radio hosts, homophobes, crusty, retired republican business people with nothing better to do, orange floor balloons, anyone else holding grudges against her opponent, mentally unstable people she can manipulate into accusing her opponent of verbal harrassment--you know, the cream of the crop.

@schoolyard journalism
What's up Jasun? I think two squatting women just about covers my feelings on the matter. It's nice you're just using anonymous handles these days.
"no limit to what you will do to attack people you do not agree with"
Did I even attack Volm once? Seriously? If anything I said was an attack in your eyes you have some seriously THIN skin. I asked if Wurster would be running her campaign since it seemed to be something one would want to know. Typically I like to know who my politicians associate themselves with. In this case I would want to know if Volm was having her campaign run by a buddy of Lars Larson. Fair questions are not attacks.

I'm still unclear on whether or not this person I've never heard of is actually running for something. And her supporters are incoherent, to put it politely as possible.
25
@Graham. You're right Graham cracker. Apparently I wasn't thinking that it was ok to have an imagination. Catwoman is a character from Batman and I was non-literally talking about Mary's picture. In my world, Catwoman will be the new superhero to save Gotham City (AKA Portland, Oregon).
I'm just a 31 year old "dumb blonde," double Scorpio with a moon in Capricorn--nuff said.
(FYI--I have a B.A in which I graduated with a 3.9418 GPA at the top 10% of my class in 2008 from Marylhurst University. Not that it matters, I don’t need people to validate who I am--I know who I am. I’m someone who believes that there needs to be more creative people in politics--someone like Mary.)
My whole point about my Catwoman analogy was that there needs to be more women working for the city of Portland. I'll forgive you Graham; you must've been drinking when you posted your last comment.
Go Mary! Women unite! I'm a voter for real change--not spare change.
[@ two squatting women, Mary is a Democrat--where does your Republican concept come from, your imagination?]
Sincerely,
Janelle

@two squatting women-taking a crap, you sound more like a right wing wacko from a Lars Larson morning show than anyone I have met around this grassroots campaign or any other. Your short sided and quick to judge mentality leaves you in a fish bowl, where you are well fed from your sources..
Bottom line, you will know information when you are told. A huge chunk of your questioning is really none of your f'ing business.
The insults are expected from such bottom feeders as yourself.

Aqua Blue,
I waited the entire recall campaign for other sources to refute "mine." Guess what? They never did and never will. Your anti-Sam peeps never proffered confirmed facts in response, only baseless denials. Taking a poke at me is part and parcel of your entire approach--all bluster, no substance.
Your pal volm aligned herself with everyone I mentioned above. Eff Ayy Cee Tee. Thoughest will reap what thoughest hath sown. She's sorely, sorely misguided if she thinks she'll win a race as a tried-and-true democrat after being part of a campaign that included the names lars larsen and kevin mannix. In Portland, Oregon? Like fish in a barrel for her opponent...
And by the way, blind support for the way they ran that campaign just cuz your palz, is infantile and honestly, true bottom-feeder behavior.

Mary Volm is batshit crazy. I mean top five of the people I've ever met who don't have some kind of legally recognized diagnosis. She was legendary at the city for being totally self-absorbed, unproductive, and loony as a fruitcake.
29
@Two Women squatting,
The Council race is non-partisan, unless the Mercury changed some guidelines when I wasn't looking.
Just because you brought it up: First, the Recall campaign is a totally different dynamic than bringing a positive solution to City Hall as MAry Volm represents. Second, I read all the crap that the Mercury crew pieced together like Middle School girls passing notes in the hallway about the recall. There was no right wing funder...no conspiracy, non of that BS is true. Larson never sent a dollar. Mannix never sent a dollar. All complete horse manure, just like Fox News "reporters".
Interesting to use the metaphor of "shooting fish out of a barrel". real choice.
You are clueless in what the recall represents, Justice and Integrity in City Hall. Most likely clueless in what a grassroots, community originated, campaign looks like.
I am an activist, community organizer and a free spirit. You are paid to do as you are told by elected officials.
That's a hawk and a bottom feeder.

@ABS & Janelle: If the two of you represent the level of support and intellectual rigor that can be expected from Ms. Volm's supporters... well... I feel sorry for whomever her campaign manager turns out to be. It's tough when the most vocal people on your side come off sounding like insecure defensive wack-jobs.
31
@schoolyard journalism: One would think that if I was running for a elected position higher than say, neighborhood association board, the person I was dating would know. The fact that that boyfriend is a public figure* who everyone happened to have on speed dial, might mean that if some random rumors showed up, that newspaper reports might ask some questions, you know, in an effort to flesh out the story. The only thing that makes this story school-yard-ee is that after Mr Wurster acted like an ass, Mr Davis decided to report that Mr Wurster was an ass, (while he continued down the list of potential sources trying to get details about the rumor.) A "normal" newspaper wouldn't report that little detail, where as a blog isn't limited by column inches so it can report that. I've got no problem with all of that in theory, but in this case it isn't news: we all already knew that Mr Wurster is an ass.
*Adolf Hitler was a public figure too, so don't take that as a compliment.

@ Graham (blogger profile showing him drinking at the bar) AKA “Graham cracker” and @ two squatting women (AKA oppressive profile name), I’m not sure how you both manage to type on this blog. You both obviously type just to make yourselves feel good and may not be all the way coherent.
You both wouldn’t know diversity if it hit you over the head. When I see political candidates concerned about the marginalized, I listen. I could tell you about what kind I’ve life I came from and what type of family I am related to by their race and sexual orientation—but I don’t have the energy to let you know because you’ve both closed your minds so tightly and have your mind made-up to call anyone who is not voting for your favorite politician a “homophobe,” “wacko,” “right winger” or “Republican.” I am not any of your perceived derogatory labels.
The real issues are what matter to me. From Mary Volm’s FaceBook, I can see she has a genuine interest in helping the homeless/disadvantaged—she certainly is not lazy. I have personally gone to City Hall meetings and other City Hall forum and have seen the same middle class crap over and over again offering solutions only to the business community advantage. I’m not saying that there aren’t good middle class people out there, because there are people like Mary out there who genuinely care about others.
I don’t care who sleeps with whom, but in the state of Oregon, 18 is the age of consent and when I vote, I vote for what actions are being done on the issues that matter to me and who follows the very laws that the people have voted in—government by the people and for the people. Soap opera crap belongs on a soap opera, not at a City Hall. Of course, soap operas are also found in Blogs & newspapers.
Sincerely,
Janelle

@Janelle: Are you really using people's profiles from Facebook to tell that people really have a "genuine interest in helping the homeless/disadvantaged"? I'll give you a hint: On Facebook it is very easy to fake "genuine" interests. It is even easier than editing Wikipedia to suit your needs.
P.S. The rest of your comment reads kind of like a Palin speech. Not that I'm judging* you or anything, but it seems to be a random collection of soundbites strung together without any thought as to if they make sense together or not. Your last paragraph is probably worst in that regard: Are you talking about Mary and Jasun in the beginning, and are they underage, or what exactly do you mean? Then you go on to talk about how you aren't going to vote for convicts, which as far as I know, there aren't any on the ballot in the first place. And then you talk about soap operas in city hall, which are quite a bit different than the legal system. (Although I do agree that soap operas don't belong at city hall, which is why I'm not going to vote for anyone that is dating Jasun. (Unlike you, I do care who sleeps with who: I think your personal life says a lot about you. More than say, your Facebook page.))
*I'm lying: People judge each other all the time, and I am judging you there, and every time you (or anyone else) does anything. But I also judge myself every time I do anything, so don't worry, you aren't special.

@Graham-I got your "intellectual rigor" right here, douche bag. You attack, you create rumors, and then insult me because I challenge your BS. I have nothing to do with the campaign except cheerleader and motivator, out of the gate.
You and crime fighter partner Matt Davis pulled a FB page posted at midnight, and post your story or assumed story-blog, inaccurate. Without a single thread or source to back it up except disturbing Wurster at home. How would you like calls asking stupid questions on your cell phone? think about that.
Your whole mission was to make Wurster an ass. And you call him one now. Thats called reporting? Send a resume over to Fox News and get the hell outta Portland.

@ Matthew D.--get a clue. Matthew, I never made any comments to you and you are extremely disrespectful as is all the morons voting for any white, middle-class male idiot. I will not vote for whoever is a white, male, middle-class person who does the same stupid politics over and over again. As long as there are options, I prefer anyone but a white male; I will vote for someone who cares about the marginalized.
This US society is historically extremely oppressive due to a lot of white males’ middle-class ideologies. I'm for new people, with new ideas and I don't have the energy to explain who I am to you Matthew, because yet again, saying my comment "reads like a Palin speech" is BS. Matthew, you sound like a "right winger, closeted Republican" as far as I'm considered with your inaccurate judgments. Go back to school.

"...you are extremely disrespectful as is all the morons voting for any white, middle-class male idiot" is a wonderful piece of random word generation.
Look, for any further discussion about whether or not supporters of Mary Volm are conservative or not, I actually suggest checking her FB friends list. There is a pretty long list of people who quite proudly describe themselves as conservative (and people who list the page "Being Conservative" as being of interest to them), so I fail to see why there would be any discussion on that one. Maybe she's not, but her friends certainly seem to be.
And I probably shouldn't even open this can of shit, but: remember the "Year of the Woman", 1994? We were briefly proud of ourselves for electing more women to congress than any previous year...This pride quickly faded as we realized that almost all of them were reactionary shills whom the GOP had thrown up to make themselves look less...Y'know...Sexist. My point? Sometimes white ladies will..."do the same stupid politics over and over again," to borrow a phrase.

Aqua Blue,
So you're saying no right wing funding? Ron Tonkin and the property managment company where you were headquartered give to which party again? Mannix's signature gathering involvement in the anti-Sam's second thrust (How's that going, by the way? Got some falsified numbers you'd like to share? 90, 100 thousand signatures, I'm sure)? Did the entire campaign kick off at a hot dog place on Hawthorne where some right-wing radio twat held a broadcast? Wasn't Lars there, too? ALL facts say yes.
Your posts here are a microcosm of all that's fucked up about the anti-Sam campaign. Tons of denial, no factual support. Lots of pretense about acting on some higher plane when really you're all just a bunch of dupliciious, self-absorbed, self-congratulatory boobs ("I'm an activist! I'm a community organizer!").
It's not a pissing contest over who cares more about the city and who's more personally involved in the process. You have no idea what anyone here who takes exception to the anti-Sam campaign does for their community. Yet it doesn't stop you from making silly assumptions about individuals to suit your empty arguments and name-call.
Face it, toots: you and your ilk totally BLEW a chance to gather sympathy and bring people into your fold (I was certainly willing and waiting with an open mind) by denying all that was fucked up and off-putting about your campaign.
As for volm, again, you are DREAMING and frankly, bat-shit crazy if you think she's going to win a race connected, even indirectly, to the people I've mentioned above.

So essentially Janelle is a defensive bigot and ABS is a deranged schizo.
The candidate is dating someone who failed to show any leadership skills on the highest profile political campaign in PDX during the last year. The copy on her website is in desperate need of a copy editor and she has posted no positions or platforms. So all we have to go off of for her judging her worthiness as a candidate are her Facebook page (I refuse to use Facebook, so I've got no idea what it says) and her vocal supporters. Still not looking good for Ms. Volm.

@rich bachelor: Thanks for the laugh.
@Janelle: Okay, you are a hypocrite, so I'm gonna make a list of what is wrong with you:
1) You have a criminal conviction, yet you don't want to vote for convicts because we voted on these laws, (although see below.) (Did you know it is possible to get most convictions sealed after a few years. Unless it wasn't something something "minor," but actually something serious like murder, you can get it removed from your record. Wait, I'm mad at you, why am I trying to help you out? What is wrong with ME?)
2) You don't have the energy to explain why my judgments are wrong, but you do have the energy to insult me for them.
3) You complain about people being disrespectful by calling them names.
4) You tried to recall someone even though you couldn't be bothered to vote in the election in the first place.
5) You admit that you'll vote for/against someone because of their race or sex, (Hint: Just cause you are a different type of bigot than most bigots, doesn't mean you aren't one,) but still claim to be open minded.
6) You can't be bothered to do the simplest of things to actually help the situations you complain about, specifically, to vote.
7) We didn't actually vote on [most] laws, we elected people, specifically, [mostly] white-UPPER class males who did. On one hand you like those laws yet you blame those same people for causing all the problems in the first place.
In the non-hypocritical, just stupid, category goes:
A) You don't understand that someone who calls himself "rich" isn't middle class.
B) You got in trouble for being disrespectful at a meeting, (not for your viewpoint, I happen to know that the city is very patent with dealing with opposing viewpoints, but for being disrespectful,) and you didn't understand that.
What did I miss? (I can't believe I pulled that entire list out of 8 comments. Sheesh.)

@ Graham, two squatting women, rich bachelor, never mind that shit, and Matthew D.: I compiled a list of your comments which the majority of them are sexist against women and labeling others as “schizos”, “schizophrenics,” and “batshit crazy.”
All of you (the people I just listed) must’ve voted for Commissioner Dan Saltzman in the past. Some people who are really diagnosed as “schizophrenic” get killed by the police here in Portland, Oregon. The people who’ve made those quotes are listed below (Graham, rich bachelor, and never mind that shit were the ones making derogatory comments about schizophrenics and the mentally ill.) Now that is purely distasteful. I would never change who I would vote for from the likes of all of you.
As long as there are people working in the city of Portland and those who vote for them are disrespectful to the homeless, the marginalized and the mentally ill (or so called mentally people by people who aren’t qualified to diagnosis others) your own bigotry needs to be pointed out.
I believe in setting the facts straight and I’m not a bigot. I give respect where respect is due. Calling you guys oppressive middle-class white males who hate women, is much nicer than calling people “wack-jobs.”
Graham: “if ABS is indicitive [sic] of the quality of the supporters that Volm has, then her campaign is screwed. I think some of those sentences were created using a Madlibs book. They just don't make sense.”
Graham: “@ABS & Janelle: If the two of you represent the level of support and intellectual rigor that can be expected from Ms. Volm's supporters... well... I feel sorry for whomever [sic] her campaign manager turns out to be. It's tough when the most vocal people on your side come off sounding like insecure defensive wack-jobs. . . . So essentially Janelle is a defensive bigot and ABS is a deranged schizo.”
Graham @ Janelle: “What exactly are you then? A zeitgeist maybe, or a collective unconsious [sic] with an internet connection?”
two squatting women: “Maybe volm can gather the same high-quality staff, props and volunteers the ant-Adams campaign used: right-wing radio hosts, homophobes, crusty, retired republican business people with nothing better to do, orange floor balloons, anyone else holding grudges against her opponent, mentally unstable people she can manipulate into accusing her opponent of verbal harrassment [sic]--you know, the cream of the crop.”
rich bachelor: “And her supporters are incoherent, to put it politely as possible. . . . And I probably shouldn't even open this can of shit, but: remember the "Year of the Woman", 1994? We were briefly proud of ourselves for electing more women to congress than any previous year...This pride quickly faded as we realized that almost all of them were reactionary shills whom the GOP had thrown up to make themselves look less...Y'know...Sexist. My point? Sometimes white ladies will..."do the same stupid politics over and over again," to borrow a phrase. . . . And speaking of ha ha ha ha: everybody who needs a cheap laugh should go check out the only other comment that Janelle has written on this blog. It's impolite to laugh at schizophrenics, but c'mon...”
Never mind that shit: “Mary Volm is batshit crazy. I mean top five of the people I've ever met who don't have some kind of legally recognized diagnosis. She was legendary at the city for being totally self-absorbed, unproductive, and loony as a fruitcake.”
Matthew D.: “P.S. The rest of your comment reads kind of like a Palin speech. Not that I'm judging* you or anything, but it seems to be a random collection of soundbites strung together without any thought as to if they make sense together or not. . . . *I'm lying: People judge each other all the time, and I am judging you there, and every time you (or anyone else) does [sic] anything. But I also judge myself every time I do anything, so don't worry, you aren't special.”
Sincerely,
Janelle

@rich bachelor: You know, I'm sorry you can't read very well. Try Hooked on Phonics.
Here's taking some of my energy to tell you who I am: I come from a single-parent family raised by a mother and two other siblings. I have two-African American half-sisters (we have the same white mother, different father's)and my uncle is a homosexual in a longterm relationship. I'm a Libertarian and I'm not voting for whoever you vote for. Voting for members in the city of Portland is nonpartisan, anyways.

@ rich bachelor: Where are these facts that you are making up from comments? I never got in trouble at any meeting and I never said I have a criminal conviction.
Rich bachelor: Are you Mayor Adams? I think so.
Rich bachelor: Are you Mayor Adams? I think so.
47
Who are you Matthew D.--(that last comment was intended for you, however I still wouldn't be suprised if rich bachelor is Mayor Adams)? Is that just the same as Matt Davis? People who are afraid to identify themselves have things to hide. I'm not afraid to identify myself--I use my real name.
48
@Two woman squatting, The first grassroots attempt at a recall is what we were talking about. This was a progressive movement with no rascist, bigot, homophobic campaign as you wrote over and over again and parrot in your blogs here now. All total complete horse manure. In this second attempt under Avel Gordly, it has generated some huge chunks of money and I havent read where its coming from.....Im not working on the recall. Tonkin said publicly that he was to run for Mayor if Adams is recalled, that is his motivation, not to support grassroots movement for justice. Mannix has never been around the first recall, thats delusional. If I had a mental disorder you would be infringing on my ADA rights. I thank you for that disrespect.
Your tired out BS machine, on the Admas recall being Right-Winger conspiracy, has lost its momentum. Do yourself a favor, and the city a favor and stop puking up blog nonsense and rumor and report some news.

Janelle: Do you consider yourself a bigot? Because you have repeatedly made bigoted statements. Is there a reason why you jumped straight in to ad hominem attacks against people who dared to criticize your chosen candidate? Why are you so quick to tell us your GPA and educational background(protip: no one cares)? Your ability to carry yourself and to promote the message of the candidate you're supporting are sadly lacking. I would recomend that you take a step back and examine your writing style and motivations. Are you supporting Ms. Volm simply because you identify with a single mother? Or do you agree with her platform (protip: please say what her platform is so that we can debate things that actually matter)?
50
@ABS: Do you understand what the Americans With Disabilities Act is and what it does? There is absolutely no way that Two Squatting Women could possibly be violating your rights.
51
Aqua Blue,
Wow. You are really a kook. Progressive movement? What radio show host showed up for the kick-off on Hawthorne?
As for Tonkin, he gave to the second campaign. He lives in California part-time so I highly, highly doubt he'd waste his time and run for mayor.
Mannix is "around" the second recall.
Now, let's try again. Can you factually refute any of these?
If you can't, don't waste any more time replying. Your reading comprehension is poor, your logic is absent but your general kookiness is on full display, so you've got that going for you.
Janelle,
Um, unthinking, hair-trigger accusations of "misogynist!" are so very old and pointless. What are you, a first year Women's Studies major?

I'm not sure if your "[sic]" is correct, although I don't know for sure. I mean, "does" is the correct word if I'm referring to the plural, which I am, although with the parentheses in there, I don't know if the sentence should be constructed based on the parenthetical statement being there, or if the sentence should be constructed without it. I know if I was using brackets, that I should put the does inside the brackets, but using brackets on your own writing requires more of an ego than I have.
As for the actual meat of your latest comment, I only have one question: Do you automatically assume that any time anyone complains about someone who happens to be female, even though they don't complain about that specifically, nor even use terms that would imply that the are blaming the gender at all, (terms like "blond," for instance,) that they are being sexist?
If that is what this is about then there is no point in discussing this (or any) issue with you. If I say something you don't like, you are immediately going to take it as an insult on your gender, not as a comment on your position on an issue, and as such it doesn't matter if I'm correct, (or not,) if the argument is good, (or not,) there is simply no way that we can ever have a productive discussion.
That is similar to the problem with Potter actually. He took everything very personally. If someone voted against him, (and guess what, if you are going to vote on things, there is a very good chance that people will vote for the other side of the issue,) he'd get upset personally, and stay upset for months. The time he walked out of city council meeting when he wasn't getting his way was the most obvious instance of that, but it was far from the only time...

@Janelle: You said you got in trouble at a meeting and have a criminal conviction here:
http://blogtown.portlandmercury.com/Blogto…
Given that it is the same username, GPA, and writing style, I'm guessing that was you.
I'm not Matt Davis, nor am I Sam Adams. My name is Matthew. Matt Davis has my address, Sarah Mirk and I have talked on the phone about city politics that she knew I was involved in from another angle unrelated to this blog. And another 10 or so Mercury employees have met me in person. All of those things happened long before this discussion started.
Speaking of which: Graham, do you have that photo of me arm wrestling the editor? I thought it was on your flicker account, but I can't find it. I want to replace my profile picture...

Matthew D. (Matt Davis?)--you were not the person making the sexist comments (that would be Graham, rich bachelor, two squatting women, and never mind that shit), but you did make rude comments, inaccurate comments and made up comments I didn't even make.
55
So here's this, Janelle: just in case anyone else ever asks you, it is not per se sexist to be against a candidate who happens to be a woman.
Back to that class of '94 argument I tried to make earlier, Linda Smith was elected by Washington state that year. She lost her job the next time around. This was not because she was a woman, a Republican, or even a conservative: she was mean, batshit crazy and 'reactionary' was a better way to describe her political views.
But since she's a woman, she's better than...Whatever lineup of epithets you got? What about Michelle Bachmann? What about Sarah Palin? They're women. You like them too?
And hell...I don't even know who Mary Volm is. Never even heard of her. If you recall, all I said initially was that she needed to get a campaign photo that didn't look like a still from softcore porn. I note it's been taken down.
So let's lay it out: I don't have a problem with either gender as a whole, actually; only a zealot does. I do have a problem with assholes, though. And I'm not as patient with the clinically insane as I once was, but that's my problem, really.
(Why would I be Sam Adams? I've always found his ideas to be as expensive as they are unworkable, and have never hesitated to say so on this blog specifically.)

56
Interesting Matthew D. You are off topic by bringing up a September 1, 2009 blog of mine here since this blog is about Mary Volm.
Once again, though, you distorted my comments as I never "got in trouble" at that meeting. In fact, Mayor Adams shook my hand after that meeting and then again at the Ground Breaking ceremony for the new Day Access Center.

@Janelle: In that case, please retract all of your statements saying that I've made sexist remarks as I have made none.

Fine. I'll admit that item B was a mistake, that I messed up on that.
Does that mean that #1-7 and item A still stand?

Graham is right. There was nothing sexist about what he said. If you actually think that what he wrote was sexist you're just daft.

62
Alrighty boys (Graham, Matthew D., two-squatting women,Blackouted, and rich bachelor) rather than repeat myself over and over again. Just reread my comments and think about how you are turning off people from wanting to vote for whatever candidate you will vote for. Also, reread your own comments, do you feel good calling people: "schizos", "schizophrenics,” "bat shit crazy, "wack-jobs" or distorting comments/posting inaccurate statements calling people "right wing” etc.? Is that going to win over the public who are reading this blog to want to vote for whomever you are voting for? Think about it. Reflect--maybe stare at a wall and Zen out.
What kind of tactic can you do to save your face? Is it possible for you to maybe post comments that would try to persuade why people should vote for other candidates, for example? Or are you all just interested in childish games?

@Janelle
Seriously...what are you even talking about? Please tell me you're going to be Volm's campaign spokesman. It would be an unintentional comedy level of 9 at least.

Please--where do you get your imagination BlackedOuted? Does the distortion of people's comments ever stop?
65
@Janelle: As near as I can tell, you are the only person making sexist comments. I would kindly ask you to stop doing so. Your misandry is not appreciated at all.
66
Oh my "misandry" is not appreciated by Graham, huh. Respect given is respect due. Either is your attacks on labeling women as a "schizo" etc. That is sexist. Women are also the gender that is normally diagnosed with a mental illness. I find it amusing that you're trying to cover up your sexist remarks--trying to turn the tables on me. You are sexist Graham as long as you call a women a schizo in one breath.
67
Getting in on (what I hope is) the tail end of this tome, what I have gleaned is:
- picking on the mentally ill isn't nice
- people who don't like mayors who lied to get elected aren't nice
- rich bachelors probably aren't
- and they're not Dean Martin either
- squatting women can make sexist comments and not be called out because...well..they're women. Squatting.
- facebook is the only place to reliable info on anyone and needs to be taken seriously
- a politician's personal life bears public scrutiny. Sam?
- a politician's personal life does not bear public scrutiny. Sam?
- Saltzman has a rusty seat
- you can edit Wikipedia to suit your needs
- the class of '92 was unceremoniously dumped in '94 and the bad guys retained control until 2006
- daft is a funny word
- Adams' ideas are expensive and unworkable
- Hitler was a public figure
- Nick Fish has a 5-yr old daughter
- only zealots have gender problems
Did I leave anything out?
Regardless, ANY new blood on this City Council would be welcome. The 3 Musketeers of Sam, Saltzman, and Leonard have run this city into the ground. The empty storefronts downtown are multiplying. Only daily divine intervention will tell you which streets are open or which ones allow legal right or left turns. Bike lanes are becoming the bane of everyone's existence.
The middle aged white men have done enough damage. Volm may have enough knowledge about the inner workings at City Hall that she'll know how to avoid the pitfalls of timidity that currently hobble Amanda. After all, our illustrious Mayor saw fit to downsize her one month before her 20-year mark (according to today's Oregonian). That certainly doesn't sound vindictive, does it? Or was he that threatened?
And from what I hear, Volm's probably got more balls than the rest of the Council combined. I say give her a chance. She can't do any worse than Danny boy.

"The empty storefronts downtown are multiplying."
And how much of that has to do with the city council rather than the overall economy? Speaking of storefronts, outside of Portland, the company which owns Clackamas Town Center has filed for bankruptcy. Is that the fault of the Clackamas County Commissioners?
"Only daily divine intervention will tell you which streets are open"
Try www.keepportlandmoving.org for construction info.
"or which ones allow legal right or left turns."
Care to elaborate on that one?
"Bike lanes are becoming the bane of everyone's existence."
On this point we totally agree. Our bike network isn't in the greatest shape, despite Portland's reputation. We need better-maintained, wider bike lanes, and a lot more of them. They are remarkably cost-effective yet paradoxically underfunded.

Lol--please @ show me. I vote. I'm a registered/practicing voter for over 13 years. I can't help it if you're not literate. I didn't vote for the current Portland city officials. What that means, is who I voted for didn't get elected. Apparently, comprehension was never your strong suit, hopefully you can get help.
73
Janelle, according to your own statements, you would have been under 18-year-old when you started voting. Have you been engaging in criminal activity for longer than you've already admitted?

@How very questionable--huh? Wow, lol. Ok--I'll help you with the math. I'm 31. 18 + 13 = 31. I'm a little over 31 + one month + some days--which means I've been voting for over 18 + years.
@ blownspeakers--I mentioned to @ show me that I hope he/she can get some help. What is wrong with that? Saying someone is "not literate" was stating a fact. That person was saying that I didn't vote for any city of Portland official and that was never stated.
Chill--please. If you scroll up and read the whole blog, you will see who the mean people are. I've been defending the verbal assaults at me.

BTW--If anyone believes in the US criminal justice system, you're a criminal in my book. I don't care what middle-class closed minded people think--that's why this country is bankrupt. The worst criminals out there are the corporations running the government.

No Janelle who is also a series of z's, and who is also WomenVote, here's the thing: you keep making your stand at the wrong place (and seem to never leave your computer, which is bad sign too).
For instance, if you really wanted to shame me, you could have kept after me about the categorical error I made: I'm really not qualified to diagnose mental illness. You almost started to do it, in fact, but got lost in your sexist generalizations that were mixed with childish economic political generalizations.
But the thing is, whether or not you're really schizophrenic per se is no longer the point. I've spent a good long many years talking with all kinds of people because it seemed salutary to do so. And what I've noticed is that people who form paragraphs like:
“Yesterday, I called the House of the Majority in Salem, Oregon and was told that Oregon employers can search as far back as someone’s juvenile criminal background. With Oregon, currently being number four in unemployment and a few months back, number one in homelessness, something needs to be down so those who have a criminal background may be able to get a job.” All, in all, I enjoyed attending the meeting, despite people who may have misunderstood me, a native Oregonian born in Portland, OR but raised in the Oregon Columbia Gorge area with previous homelessness experience as well a minor criminal background from almost seven years ago that still creates employment barriers for myself and others like me."
tend to be people who have recently gone off their meds. You remind me of the guy who used to haunt the streets downtown with the long, stream-of-consciousness screeds about how you should not accept barcodes in your skin. Or the rash of literature left all around Portland in the early '90's that suggested that Safeway was just another arm of the well-known Mormon organized, ritualized child molestation cult.
What you all have in common is the loose sentence structure, persecution complexes, likelihood to over-share (who the fuck cares about your gay uncle? who asked?), tendency to categorize not only yourself but anyone else who comes near you...And above all else, this weird identification of some nobody mid-level ex-bureaucrat as your savior, for some reason. It doesn't make sense to the rest of us for very clear reasons.
I'm done with you now. For the same reasons I don't try to reason with barking dogs.

Listen, I am not WomenVote. Also, rich bachelor--I am actually a college student who finished my finals recently. Likewise, you can't even type very well at all. The trick is to type in a Word document, and then paste it into your post.
In addition, this is a public Blog--no one asks for anyone's information, people provide it--duh. Anyways, if your profile name indicates that you are in fact a "rich bachelor," I feel sorry for you. I mean that sincerely. I'd rather be poor/young then rich/old/and alone. I also don't need to try to explain myself to anyone, nor the injustices that have occurred in my life. But I do because I'm interested in helping to create a better system where people like you don't degrade people and write them off as mentally ill. I hope you can realize the harm you are doing by continuing to publically stigmatize and insult women as well as mentally ill or perceived mentally ill people.

BTW--I've asked the Portland Mercury to delete my profile and all my comments as I revealed too much about who I am and people continue to verbally assualt me like you--This keeps getting better. So go have a party. I am not a robot without feelings. If anyone would read this whole blog, you'll see that there have been a lot of meanness directed at me.
85
I don't know, Janelle Zzzzzzz, are you young and poor or are you 31? Are you a college student or did you graduate in 2008? Are you a woman who makes stupid little blonde jokes about herself, or are you a person who has a mind so finely tuned toward misogyny that she rails against people who criticize any woman for any reason--even valid ones?
As far as asking people if it's "possible for [them] to maybe post comments that would try to persuade why people should vote for other candidates," I would like to point out that the people on this post that you seem to dislike so much are not trying, at this point, to indicate support of any political candidates; they just don't seem to like you very much. And I'm with them. If I might make a suggestion, I am thinking that perhaps this is not the blog for you. Also this: please don't pretend to be a feminist anymore. I fear it will give feminists a bad name.

You're priceless. The unintentional comedy level from you has easily eclipsed 9. You're at a full bore 10 right now. You may be able to ramp it up to 11 if you really start trying...or not trying...since it's unintentional on your part and all.

"Verbal assault", Janelle? Am I incorrect that you made all of the following comments?:
"You're right Graham cracker."
"You both obviously type just to make yourselves feel good and may not be all the way coherent."
"You both wouldn’t know diversity if it hit you over the head."
"you’ve both closed your minds so tightly and have your mind made-up"
"as is all the morons voting for any white, middle-class male"
"Go back to school."
"Once again, a white-middle class male shenanigan. "
"I'm sorry you can't read very well. Try Hooked on Phonics."
"If anyone believes in the US criminal justice system, you're a criminal in my book."
And this last bit meshes so nicely with your comment about asking the Merc to delete your comments because you chose to over share:
"I'm not afraid to identify myself--I use my real name."

@blownspeakers
Yes. That's exactly it. It has absolutely nothing to do with the mindless commentary, slandering anyone that disagrees with her and then saying they're slandering her. It's right out of the Sarah Palin playbook. Palin has also reached the unintentional comedy level of 10. Her twitter feed is comedy gold. If Sarah Palin were a man her mindless commentary and absolute ignorance would be completely acceptable.

Check it out. I never started any venom. I wasn't the person who starting hurling insults. You see when people don't read the whole story; they don't get the whole story. All my quotes you've quoted were counterattacks to verbal assaults not started by me. Scroll all the way to the top--work your way down. I've never claimed to be a feminist, misogynist, Liberal, Democrat, etc.. No, I seriously asked the Portland Mercury to delete my profile/comments. I'll even call them tomorrow to follow-up with that. I don't want any piece of me to be in a blog bowl of venom here, purely hateful. I, mean, what point do you have to continue to tear me down, for those who've tried to do that? I'm so not into politics--I'm into social justice and I vote (just the basics). Again, I counterattacked insults directed at me. I love freedom of speech, not the kind in this blog.
91
Please--I'm not a Republican, not a right winger, and not a Sarah Palin fan. Yet again-lame comments, distorted comments and old comments.
92
So nobody actually wants to talk about bike lanes and where to find construction info, and which streets are legal for left turns? I thought for a moment, based on what I had read here, that it was very, very, very important. I'm disappointed.
Maybe a change of topic is what is required to make everyone love and hug each other: Which sugar-free chewing gum goes best with a nice bottle of Cabernet?

@Janelle: You talk about "reading the whole story"... Yet you don't do that yourself. Check the comments. You started insulting me because I corrected you on Catwoman. This is an argument that you are not going to win. You just keep digging yourself into deeper and deeper holes.
Protip: The Mercury won't delete your account or your comments. Believe me when I say that people have tried and failed. Also, the internet doesn't forget; ever: http://docs.google.com/View?id=dfxd9b6v_1f…

@Bob R.
It's a flavor of sugarless gum I call Makers Mark. It goes great with misogyny and cabernet.
@Jenelle
Actually Graham corrected your use of Catwoman as Mary Volm as a modern day Catwoman. Then you started hurling insults and telling everyone about your GPA. Thanks for that.

Thanks for the tip, BlackedOut. I googled it and apparently Makers Mark sugar-free gum only comes in bottle form. That's a bit unconventional but I'm willing to give it a try. In lieu of a standard unit of gum measurement (sticks and chicklets -- no misogyny intended, really), how much Makers Mark should one chew before taking a sip of Cabernet?
Perhaps more importantly, how many sips of Makers Mark does it take before discerning legal left turns isn't a problem anymore? (Please note that this is structurally similar to how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop, but I'm not going there because that one clearly is misogynist and I've never licked a tootsie in my adult life.)

Personally I don't think the Palin analogy fits, that's going a bit too far.
But I'd like to hear from the commenters if anyone thinks there's more of a Harriet Christian vibe going on:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KACQuZVAE3s
Some people mistake that for Palinesque, but it has its own distinct flavor -- it's a cocktail with an extra splash of bitters.
Not that I'm ascribing such a thing to anyone here (heaven forbid, it's Christmas), but I'm curious to know what others think.

And they will seriously post about you on page 1 of blogtown tomorrow(today) if you do that. The best way to make this go away is to be a big person and walk away. Can you do that? I don't think you can, I think you'll have to post a follow up to my comments, and that you won't be happy unless you get the last word in. Of course, on the odd chance that I'm wrong about you, I'll go ahead and post this in this comment:
Last! I win!

Ms. Jeffries , are you actually suggesting vigilante justice??? Despite your hatred for the American legal system, you state that you want to print up this "evidence" (of a non-crime?) and bring it to "the proper place" and make sure people are "held accountable". This is actually frightening.
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume your poor writing and/or reasoning skills are obfuscating your actual intent; please clarify, because as it stands your message seems dangerously sociopathic.

This is not ok that you character assasinate me like this. I certainly haven't tried to search for information on anyone of you. This is extremely disrespectful and an invasion. This blog is supposed to be about Mary Volm. Why you wanted to try to make me a spectacle here, is beyond me. If you are not being disrespectul, why not tell all the blogging audience what your Facebook profile is? That would be equality.

I was right, you can't.
Where did I talk about the mentally ill in the first place? Where did I say that it had anything to do with being female? YOU said that part, let me show you the quote: "Women are also the gender that is normally diagnosed with a mental illness." I've said nothing about it at all. But since you brought it up, if your statistic about women and mental health is true, (I don't know if it is or not, but you said it, not me,) then I suspect that it might have more to do with diagnostic rates than actual rates of occurrence. Of the people in my extended family, the men almost all think that they are "fine," (including the one who committed suicide two years ago.) They aren't, (obviously, since they are killing themselves,) but they'd never admit it. Almost all the women go ahead and accept the diagnoses and get treatment. Since, unless they are completely insane, it is very hard to diagnose a mental health patient who doesn't think there is anything wrong with them, the women get diagnosed at higher rates. I'll admit that my family suffers from small sample size and all that, but if I had to guess, the diagnostic rates have very little to do with the incidence rates.
For the record: I see no problem putting a person with a mental illness in office, if they can function normally with treatment. I also wouldn't vote for someone with an open head wound who kept bleeding on everyone and passing out yet kept telling everyone they were fine and they didn't need to see a doctor...

Friends! Brethren! /b/Towners! It is obvious that Janelle Jeffries is suffering some sort of mental disorder. I am not qualified or certified in accurately diagnosing what sort of problem she has, but I am qualified in stating that we are not helping her by poking her with metaphorical sticks.
I feel that we should back off and hopefully she will stop acting out and maybe realize that she is engaging in unhealthy behaviors. I can only wish her the best and hope that she receives the sort of help and mental health support that she so obviously and desperately needs.

Y'know Graham, it's a bit late for that, don't you think? And the fact remains that whatever static this particular poster recieved was pretty par for the course as far as Internet bandinage goes. That she responded with a string of freshman-year-seminar insults isn't even troubling, just dumb. I'm gonna say she's got some problems, yes, but I don't think that lets her off the hook for making a bunch of unfounded accusations.
I mean, no one at all attacked her on the basis of gender, but apparently one of the demons did, to hear her tell it. And I hold it as a rule that when someone decides to go after your choice of screen name first and foremost, they lack anything in the way of a valid argument.
The main reason to stop engaging her at all at this point is that we're only playing into her larger persecution issues (she just wrote a note about it on her Facebook page, actually). She thinks that the rest of us meanies want to hurt her due to our financial status that she knows nothing about, our great love of oppressing others that comes with being "middle-class"...Knowing nothing about who we are or what we do for a living...And that being from some sort of traumatic background makes her a better person, which it surely does not.
So hey; fuck ignorance. I call bullshit on bullshitters, even when they're kinda damaged.

Hi Wm. Steven Humphrey, as you can see, there are several commenters’s who are slandering me here. I am not mentally ill, neither is Mary Holm. This blog is supposed to be about her. The comments here are totally off topic, I never posted my last name but others dug up that information, so I switched to zzzzzz as several bloggers here want to character assassinate me here and make me wonder about my safety now as a woman.
Several commenters’ here have called people "schizos", "schizophrenic", "bat shit crazy", etc. This is truly sickening, especially since city of Portland officials killed a man who had schizophrenia.
I've called Matt Davis and have sent him an e-mail. Why does the Portland Mercury have options to report comments for being off topic, threatening and or spam if they don't do anything about them?

@Janelle Jeffries: The first step in solving our problems is accepting that we have said problems. This is often the most difficult step. I really do hope that you seek some sort of counseling to help you deal with your persecution issues.

@ oddly inconsistent--reposted for you:
@ Graham, two squatting women, rich bachelor, never mind that shit, and Matthew D.: I compiled a list of your comments which the majority of them are sexist against women and labeling others as “schizos”, “schizophrenics,” and “batshit crazy.”
All of you (the people I just listed) must’ve voted for Commissioner Dan Saltzman in the past. Some people who are really diagnosed as “schizophrenic” get killed by the police here in Portland, Oregon. The people who’ve made those quotes are listed below (Graham, rich bachelor, and never mind that shit were the ones making derogatory comments about schizophrenics and the mentally ill.) Now that is purely distasteful. I would never change who I would vote for from the likes of all of you.
As long as there are people working in the city of Portland and those who vote for them are disrespectful to the homeless, the marginalized and the mentally ill (or so called mentally people by people who aren’t qualified to diagnosis others) your own bigotry needs to be pointed out.
I believe in setting the facts straight and I’m not a bigot. I give respect where respect is due. Calling you guys oppressive middle-class white males who hate women, is much nicer than calling people “wack-jobs.”
Graham: “if ABS is indicitive [sic] of the quality of the supporters that Volm has, then her campaign is screwed. I think some of those sentences were created using a Madlibs book. They just don't make sense.”
Graham: “@ABS & Janelle: If the two of you represent the level of support and intellectual rigor that can be expected from Ms. Volm's supporters... well... I feel sorry for whomever [sic] her campaign manager turns out to be. It's tough when the most vocal people on your side come off sounding like insecure defensive wack-jobs. . . . So essentially Janelle is a defensive bigot and ABS is a deranged schizo.”
Graham @ Janelle: “What exactly are you then? A zeitgeist maybe, or a collective unconsious [sic] with an internet connection?”
two squatting women: “Maybe volm can gather the same high-quality staff, props and volunteers the ant-Adams campaign used: right-wing radio hosts, homophobes, crusty, retired republican business people with nothing better to do, orange floor balloons, anyone else holding grudges against her opponent, mentally unstable people she can manipulate into accusing her opponent of verbal harrassment [sic]--you know, the cream of the crop.”
rich bachelor: “And her supporters are incoherent, to put it politely as possible. . . . And I probably shouldn't even open this can of shit, but: remember the "Year of the Woman", 1994? We were briefly proud of ourselves for electing more women to congress than any previous year...This pride quickly faded as we realized that almost all of them were reactionary shills whom the GOP had thrown up to make themselves look less...Y'know...Sexist. My point? Sometimes white ladies will..."do the same stupid politics over and over again," to borrow a phrase. . . . And speaking of ha ha ha ha: everybody who needs a cheap laugh should go check out the only other comment that Janelle has written on this blog. It's impolite to laugh at schizophrenics, but c'mon...”
Never mind that shit: “Mary Volm is batshit crazy. I mean top five of the people I've ever met who don't have some kind of legally recognized diagnosis. She was legendary at the city for being totally self-absorbed, unproductive, and loony as a fruitcake.”
Matthew D.: “P.S. The rest of your comment reads kind of like a Palin speech. Not that I'm judging* you or anything, but it seems to be a random collection of soundbites strung together without any thought as to if they make sense together or not. . . . *I'm lying: People judge each other all the time, and I am judging you there, and every time you (or anyone else) does [sic] anything. But I also judge myself every time I do anything, so don't worry, you aren't special.”

Can't wait for the headlines: "Mary Holm [sic] supporter sues critics for libel." Let the pursuit of truth and justice and tabloid headlines begin!
122
@zzzzzzz: Except the newspaper isn't libel for the content of comments or letters to the editor or etc, they are only libel for the content of reporters, (unless they make a retraction.) To get the commenters, you have to sue them directly.
As for me, I've made 9 bullet points of what is wrong with you, and have issued a retraction on one of them at your request. The other 8 apparently still stand unless you want to argue that I'm doing them with "reckless regards to the truth," (i.e. not that you don't like the spin, but that there is no way a reasonable person would come up with that based on the situation.) I'm about to add to the list, (apparently you do have something to hide since you stopped posting under your real name,) but I haven't yet.
But by all means, since you seem to be so successful at reasoning with people normally, you should try your success in court. What do you have to lose? (I mean, besides the attorney fees for you and the people you sue.)

@Janelle Jeffries: Since you seem so determined to continue this, I feel that I must inform you that any attempt you make to bring any sort Libel suit against either The Portlan Mercury or individual posters on their site will fail. This will happen for thre main reasons:
1. Opinion can not be libelous
2. Truthful or honest statements can not be libelous
3. You are a "limited public figure" and as such you are essentially exempt from defamation protections.

Once, in this very forum, notorious underworld figure and Mercury employee Matt Davis commented that "Bob R. is a fucker".
Question for law experts: To the best of my knowledge (and after reviewing the security camera footage), it is clear to me that Mr. Davis has no basis to have observed (or not observed) such behavior, if or when or where I may, or may not have done said activity. Can I sue the Mercury too? Or just Matt? Or should I just recruit Matt to christen the new soaking pool at the new McMenamins on Stark (in the former bathhouse) with me, so that he may gather critical information as to the nature of his past statement about me? Is that journalism?

But what about you, Janelle? You've said at least as many offensive things to posters as poster have to you, and "He/She started it" is no defense for libel (not that any judge would find these comments legally libelous). Funny how you're resorted to the legal system that you started this thread so disdainful of.
Also: Graham's "libel" against you being a zeitgeist or collective unconscious was in reference to you claiming not to be "a real entity". Please try to understand what the adults are saying before you commence your little hissy-fit.

Good Graham, I'm glad you’re acknowledging that you are posting opinions, please stop posting falsehoods as your statements to me have not been honest or truthful.
I would appreciate it if you would stop posting at least my last name which I never provided to this blog. I provided my first name and switched to zzzzzzz after several of you continued to post my first and last name and then Facebook page. You guys are borderline stalkers to me at this point. I’ve never tried to search for information on anyone of you. Why do that to me?
Matthew D., Graham and others did that. Apparently you don't care about my privacy but all of you care about yours. Or else you all would provide your first and last names and Facebook account information.

Is Janelle calling me out for judging people? Am I "getting in trouble" for judging people? Was it a mistake for me to retract my statement earlier that Sam Adams called her out for judging people?
And I think I've got a case for libel in that last comment, since she keeps accusing me of being "sexist against women and labeling others as “schizos”, “schizophrenics,” and “batshit crazy.” " even though she has already admitted that my comments weren't sexist.
Finally, just for the record: I hate Salty, I voted against him the last time he was on the ballot. Nothing to do with him being a upper class white male, (I'm not a classist, racist, or sexist,) it had to do with the fact that he doesn't listen to citizens when they complain and that isn't something I want in my elected officials.
P.S. I love how you have to clarify your sexist label as "sexist against women," unlike the other sort of sexism that seems to be on this thread.

Janelle -- you didn't answer Oddly Inconsistent's question; you just reposted comments from other people.
129
"I provided my first name and switched to zzzzzzz after several of you continued to post my first and last name and then Facebook page."
You switched to zzzzzz before anyone mentioned your last name or facebook page. This is evidenced in the text. Why do you keep lying, Janelle?

@Janelle said "Matthew D., Graham and others [posted my last name]"
Where exactly did I post your last name? That isn't an opinion, you are accusing me of specific action, so I want to get this down for my deformation suit. Show me where I posted your last name, unless you plan on turning me from a middle class white male into an upper class one.

132
@Mattew D. I can't wait for your deformation suit. I imagine it'll be like that nuclear waste scene in Robocop. http://bloodofkittens.com/wp-content/uploa…
133
@Bob R. Just for the record, this is why I don't comment on PortlandTransport anymore. It isn't that Janelle compares at all to Jerry Car-Parker, but he doesn't explode like this when things go down. (And 95% of the comments in this thread would have been deleted for being personal attacks. Although you know that already, and wouldn't be trying to lure Matt Davis into the bathhouse over there either.)
134
Matthew D., look at two sentences before what you quoted. You searched for information on me is what I was referring to. You dug out information about me from a September 1, 2009 blog that has nothing to do with this blog—that was off topic. My life has nothing to do with Mary Volm other than I am voting for her. People who’ve dug up information about makes me feel unnecessarily invaded.
Thanks Bob, at least I know that one person is for equality.
P.S. I never minded posting my first name until people dug up information about me, my last name and my Facebook page. Everyone I have mentioned did not do all the same things to foist my private life out in the public without my permission. I said offensive things to others as a counterattack. I was insulted first.

135
No, I wouldn't be trying to lure Matt into a bathhouse over there, nor you into a deformation suit, either. :-) I think one of the things that people don't understand about that other blog is that it is moderated and has ground rules. I have no problem with people being mean, catty, profane, etc., over here -- it's just part of the scene. Look at it this way: If you go into a rowdy bar, there are different behavioral expectations than if you go into a community center meeting. And regarding the individual you just mentioned over at the other blog, he hasn't been posting over there for awhile now. I won't go into that over here, though.
136
"Thanks Bob, at least I know that one person is for equality."
Janelle, you might think you're being subtle, but that sort of backhanded compliment is exactly the sort of disingenuous and intellectually dishonest thing you've been doing this whole thread.
If you can point to the text and explain why it indicates that people are being various bigoted jerks, please do. Repeating something over and over doesn't make it true, and until you decide to provide evidence to your accusations, posters will continue to find you completely delusional.

@Janelle Jefferies: You claim to be a liberatian... Well, the market forces have spoken and they really want you to seek professional counseling services to help you deal with whatever seems to be troubling you. Unfortunately, as an unemployed libertarian, I'm not entirely sure how you're going to pay for said counseling. Maybe if you were a socialist you could morally take advantage of the numerous free community services offered by the city, county or state.
142
@Bob: Yes, I'd noticed he has been banned. I was quite pleased actually. Now if only he'd stop showing up at city wide land use and denying global warming.
@zzzzzzz: See at the bottom of your posts where it says "zzzzzzz"? Well if you click on that, you get your profile, (I know you've seen that page, it was the same one you used to change your picture to a flower and change our username.) The reason people look at it, is because people who post with account, (people that have nothing to hide, as opposed to the people that have something to hide and post anonymously,) tend to put things there, (like the picture of the flower that you have there, which looks much better at full size than at 50x50.) On that page is also the list of all the comments you've ever made on this blog. I read it. (At the time I didn't need to even scroll down to read the comment from September, but now you have to press the "all comments" link at the bottom of the page to get to it.) In other words you are accusing me "unnecessarily invad[ing]" and "borderline stalking" for clicking on one link, (specifically, your name under your post,) and reading what it said?
@A CAT!!! Welcome back! We missed you! This is your type of ball of yarn anyways.

Now, for those who are continuing to mock, jab at me. Tell me about yourself am I supposed to be one of the few people with real names on here that people make light of? I must be your unintentional entertainment in which you take a sick joy in twisting my words.
For those who keep on insulting me, taking apart pieces of my statements--why? Are you practicing for a debate club somewhere? I'm not a politician, I enjoy my privacy. Some creepy people here dug up personal information about me and posted it on this blog.
What's your first and last name since that was so important for some people to dig up about me? As long as you cannot provide at least your real name here, then where's your backbone? My first name, I provided, people dug up my last name--that's why I switched to zzzzzzz. I switched to zzzzzzz because my last name is usually only provided to friends--not dug up by strangers.
I can only assume that those who won't provide their identity, must have deep stuff to hide. Somehow you feel good lashing out falsehoods but can't even say your first/last name.

Thanks for the open arms, Matthew. If we had more of these kind of threads, I'd break my self-imposed-exile way more often.
145
Graham, at least you're now spelling my last name wrong, that helps with my privacy.
Matthew D., I don't care where you got my old blog information, the point was that bringing it to this blog is off topic.

@Janelle C Jeffries: I'm so sorry that I misspelled your name. I won't do it again. But really, get help. I'm sure that the staff at Street Roots can put you in touch with some pro bono mental health providers. It will make your life so much more manageable than it currently is.
149
Lol--"You've been poisoned" is now calling himself/herself "Back for the Politics." Funny--so I searched and John Galt is a fictional name of a character.
My last name was foisted here against my will by people who have a twisted enjoyment of making things public that comes their path by digging. If anyone feels that posting something about someone against their will is ok, you may want to seek counseling yourself i.e. Graham.

@Janelle C Jeffries: So you feel that the WWeek's story on the alleged improprieties of Mayor Adams was unjustified? After all, "if anyone posting something about someone against their will is ok, you may want to seek counseling yourself". I'm sure Mayor Adams didn't want that story reported.
Janelle, by your repeated posting on this site, you have made yourself into a "limited public figure"; this has pretty much made you fair game for something like a simple Google search. Feel free to do the same thing to anyone you want. After all, fair is fair.

Janelle, you've already changed your name once in this thread. Is the process really so mystifying to you?
152
Listen--Google guy--I NEVER provided my last name here. I DID provide my first name. Get a clue--k. If you would read all the comments here, you'd see I never did that--other commenters's did that. By the way, thanks for helping with my Libel suit. I don't appreciate you continuing to broadcast my full, personal name on here against my will.
153
There is no law against stating a preson's name, Janelle. Look at your own definition of libel. No one is breaking any laws. Why do you hate freedom?
Also, why don't you answer any of the questions about why you have repeatedly lied in this thread? I think many of us are curious.

OK, Janelle C Jeffries a.k.a. "zzzzzzz" I think you've just revealed yourself as a clever troll. Nobody is dumb enough to think that posting the true and real name of a person is "libel". (Are they?)
If you are for real: Grow a spine. There's videos out there of someone calling a former employer of mine because they found my resume posted online and wanted to see if I was for real. What's happened to you here is a trifle, and mostly self-inflicted I might add.

@GOOGLE JANELLE C. JEFFRIES
I'm not sure she is mystified. I was thinking to myself yesterday, "no way...there is no way anyone could actually be writing what she's writing and be completely serious."
Now...
Completely different. Nobody would screw with us for this long. Her name is really Janelle C. Jeffries who posts her GPA for all to see and is 100% completely mystified by what is going on here. I had a neighbor up until a month ago that was exactly the same way.

There's freedom of speech, not freedom to defame. You obviously don't care about protecting women's privacy. You obviously don't care about women and their safety. I never provided my full name at this place--it was dug out, forced out and is a rape of my privacy. I provide my full name where I freely choose. Have you ever been a victim of Identity Theft? I have. Does it feel good to rape my privacy?
157
@Janelle C. Jeffries: Your use of the word "rape" in this case is incredibly insensitive to survivors of sexual assault. I really hope that you apologize and retract your statments.
Also, the truth can not be defamatory speech. Since your name is Janelle C. Jeffries... well... Libel is impossible.

I am a survivor of rape. That's why I can personally relate to you what a rape feels like. The commentors here that are rude and invasive have nothing better to do but to continue to defame me by raping my privacy.
160
Janelle, to say that to have someone use your name is tantamount to rape is absolutely disgusting, and an insult to the millions of women and men that have experienced sexual trauma. I sincerely hope you apologize and reflect on just how hurtful your actions are to any decent person.
161
Rape is like having your name used without permission? I personally remember it a lot differently. You should be ashamed of yourself.
162
Ooh. I was waiting for her to go there. Sickening deja vu back to the early '90's.
Remember? When one could tell someone else that unwanted looking-at was "mental rape"? Yeahhh...Set back feminism a good thirty years, that.

On this issue of lying, Janell, any person can read through this thread and see clearly that you changed your user name before either your last name or facebook was brought up. You later claimed that you changed your user name bacause of these "rapes". This was a lie. Are you so deeply dishonest that you can't even understand that you repeatedly and publicly lied?
If you aren't in the mood to address your habitual dishonesty, could you tell us why you decided to use racial epithets against Graham for no logical reason?

For the people who have no soul here, the commenters who've invaded my privacy, it is apparent to me that you think it's funny that I've been raped and have been a victime of identity theft. It's apparent that you think it is ok to freely post a woman's full name on an Internet blog and think that it is ok to rape her privacy and create a safety issue. It is apparent to me that you hate me, a woman. If you respected me, you would not rape my privacy, defame my character and would stop using my full name. Thank you.
166
No, I am not a liar. My user name was "Janelle" before I switched it to zzzzzzz. Google, you came here to this blog late but you have been the most destructive of my privacy at this moment.
167
@Janelle Jeffries: The following is a list of places that have your full name on their website. They are all raping you. Some of them even have photos of you; that's like double-rape.

No, we don't hate you, a woman. We dislike and distrust you, an asshole. We also note with a mixture of pity and disgust that you've now gone and undermined the value of the word 'rape'.
169
"you think it's funny that I've been raped and have been a victime of identity theft."
This has no factual basis. It is a lie. Why are you a liar?
Janelle, you LIED about your motivations for changing your user name. Do you really, really, really, need me to point out exactly where you did this? (PRO-TIP: re-read this thread).

Google--I am not a liar. Read all the comments. I have no energy to deal with you, obviously someone who is against truth.
172
Let me find the exact quote where you lied... In the mean time, would you like to explain why you made the choice to hurl racial epithets at posters? I'm really curious.
173
I have no need to lie. Google, I think you are the one that seriously needs help. I guess you get off on making women unsafe.
174
Excuse me, Google, you have a lot of reading to do. I don't "hurl racial epithets." Again, another defamation of my character. I have two biracial-half African American sisters. We have the same white mother but a different father.
175
"I never posted my last name but others dug up that information, so I switched to zzzzzz as several bloggers here want to character assassinate me here and make me wonder about my safety now as a woman."
Here you go, Janelle. This post is a lie. It is not the truth. It makes no sense when compared to the publicly available time-line. Why are you a liar?

@A CAT: This is the quote you're looking for, "My first name, I provided, people dug up my last name--that's why I switched to zzzzzzz. I switched to zzzzzzz because my last name is usually only provided to friends--not dug up by strangers."
177
Janelle, what relevance did adding the word "cracker" to Grahams name have to the discussion? It makes no sense, unless you wanted to introduce a derogatory racial element that had no place in this thread. It was a racist action, and it should give everyone here pause about your moral fortitude.
178
Hey! Look at that. Janelle Jeffries repeated the same lie twice! Along with repeated racist,sexist and classist commentaries about the relative merits of candidates based purely on demographic information that the candidates have relatively no control over.
179
Wow!! @ Graham. You flaunt your sickness of foisting information on this blog that has nothing to do with Mary Volm. This is outrageous!! You have now confirmed to me that you are a stalker.
180
And you have further confirmed that you have a poor command of language, o Lady Who Must Not Be Named.
181
I'm sorry, but Janelle Zzzzzzz? You should be ashamed of yourself. First, you're making the not-funny blonde jokes, and now you're using the word "rape" simply to indicate something you dislike? You are aware that you're contributing to rape culture with these statements, right? As a woman, I frankly feel less safe the more you type.
182
@Janelle Jeffries: You got it! I'm SO stalking you right now. Look out your window. That's me sitting on the bench watching your windows while I'm posting from my laptop.
183
@ Google. In no way, was "cracker" used in the racial context you are implying. I have never even heard that term used in the way you are saying. My sister's father came straight from Africa.
First of all, Graham looks white to me. Second of all, whoever you are you are in need of help and I hope you can get it. You are purely defaming my character.
@ Google and @ Graham please do not continue to rape my privacy and defame my character. That is uncalled for and way out of line. Can you be reasonable people and care about a female's privacy? Especially a woman like myself that has been a victim of rape in the past and has been a victim of identity theft? Why the tangent about me here? I haven't dug up private information from any of you. How sick, disturbed and stalker like to go so far to post information about me on the blog way off the topic. This is harassment and an intrusion on my privacy/safety.

As a woman, who has been raped, I will use that term to discribe my invasion of privacy as it is a rape.
185
Janelle: And as a woman who has been raped, I find it entirely disgusting that you're using the word in that way. It makes me ill.
186
"In no way, was "cracker" used in the racial context you are implying. I have never even heard that term used in the way you are saying. My sister's father came straight from Africa.

So you noticed that Graham seemed white, and you used a racial epithet against him that you coincidentally didn't know the meaning of? Are you lying again? If not, please let us know the non-racist context of using the word cracker for someone you think is white? Would you feel ok if someone called your relative [Janelle's sister]-nigger? Would that be ok? I don't think so, but perhaps you think racial slurs are OK.

@Janelle Jeffries: In case you honestly didn't know that "cracker" is a ethnic perjorative against whites... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cracker_(pejo…)
188
With the amount of sexist, racist, and classist harassment that Janelle has already posted in this thread, along with her compulsive lying, I'm not sure how wise it would be to assume simple ignorance in any of her comments, Graham.
189
I forgot how hot Bob R.'s icon was. Suh-woon (in the miniature)!
Thank goodness I have fantastic eyesight, 'cuz it'd be even more creepy if I had to say "well, from what I can see, anyway!"

Why thanky-you Alexjon. (Blush) In the interest of full disclosure, I've put on a few pounds and a few years since that photo was taken. (And, thankfully, changed the color of of the house -- as a decoy to would-be Internet Facebook name-rapist stalkers, of course.) I've actually lost over 10lbs in the past 4 months on my improved diet, so hopefully the photo and the reality will realign sometime, plus a few wrinkles.
191
In the definition of the context I'm using to describe my rape of privacy is the following, words have more than one meaning:
"Rape n. : 2. violent assault or plunder" (The American Century Dictionary, 1995, p. 477). The defintion of the word "cracker" that I was using to describe Graham "cracker" was: "Cracker n., thin crisp bisquit" but really refering to "Crackers adj. slang. Crazy" (The American Century Dictionary, 1995, p. 133).
This rape of privacy using my full name was started by the profile user Graham. I've been raped on two occaisons, menaced once with a butcher knife, and I have been a victim of identity theft. I NEVER provided my full legal name, Graham DID THAT. My privacy and safety is now compromised.
He was the first one who insulted me when I used an analogy about Catwoman in which I counterattacked. Then decided to dig (stalker-like) and find my full legal name and Internet links about me to post on the Internet on this blog.

1. If that's your definition of "rape of privacy" then you need to look up the definition of "violence". Words mean things.
2. If you don't want people to easily find your full legal name on the Internet, DON'T POST YOUR FULL LEGAL NAME ON THE INTERNET. Google finds things.
I have been menaced, stalked, and threatened with a knife in my time (although thankfully not raped), and I would _never_ compare those experiences to someone posting the results of an easy Google search.

How is your safety in any way compromised? Your name is already on the internet in several places. Do you think Street Roots raped you by publishing your full name? Did you rape Mary Volm by making your initial post in this thread WITHOUT HER CONSENT?
I'm still interested in why you lied to your fellow posters several times. Graham and I have both posted proof of this. Why are you a compulsive liar, Janelle?

I am not racist, "Google...," AKA no name profile user. I do not lie, nor do I have a need to lie. You should be ashamed of your actions, but apparently you don't know what is right or what is wrong. You don't care about women who have been raped. As a woman who has been raped, you call me a "liar." It is very psychotic of you to have my full legal name in your user name. You're promoting people to abuse me and I can only hope that you will realize that.
195
I was also accused, multiple times, of being pro child-molestation in this very forum by someone who created a profile with the sole apparent purpose of harassing me. That's way beyond anything anybody has said about you, in terms of libel. And yet I would definitely not compare such an experience to menacing, stalking, threatening, or rape.
196
"My first name, I provided, people dug up my last name--that's why I switched to zzzzzzz. I switched to zzzzzzz because my last name is usually only provided to friends--not dug up by strangers."
"I never posted my last name but others dug up that information, so I switched to zzzzzz as several bloggers here want to character assassinate me here and make me wonder about my safety now as a woman."
There you are Janelle. Neither of these are true, yet you repeatedly made the same un-true claim. How is this not a lie? Why do you continue to lie, instead of owning up to your lies like a decent human being would?

@Janelle Jeffries: You are a liar. You make up stories to fit the reality that you wish actually happpened.
The idea that I insulted you before you started using racial perjoratives at me and accusing me of being drunk while posting... Well.. that never happened.
The idea that you changed your screen name in reaction to the use of your last name... Well... that never happened.
The idea that I was being sexist against all women because, because, because I don't know why. You never explained that one. But it as well never happened.
The idea that anyone on here ever defamed you or libeled against you... never happened.
The idea that I raped you because I said what your name was, well, that's insulting and a misuse of the word rape.
The idea that you somehow are using the insult 'cracker' in an obsure British sense that means crazy instead of the much more commonly used racial perjorative sense... Maybe that's true... but I doubt it.
Liar, liar, pants on fire.

No, Janelle. I'm not. Please look at your sentence, parse its meaning, and explain to us why someone Googling your name promotes them abusing you. Try to make sense. Explain it to us simply and accurately, like we were a five-year-old.

"As a woman who has been raped, you call me a "liar.""
The two halves of that sentence have nothing to do with one-another.
Nobody, NOBODY, NOBODY is questioning your statement that you have been raped.
People _are_ calling you _currently_ a liar.
The accusation of being a _liar_ was made BEFORE any mention of rape. You were the first to mention the word, at 2:06pm today. The word "lie" in this context was brought up at 12:50pm today. The accusation of untruthfulness, using other verbiage, was brought up earlier than that.
Therefore, if you are prone to believe in the experience of the passage of time, at least by human consciousness, as a one-way phenomenon, it is IMPOSSIBLE for anyone who has accused you of lying to have been conflating your past rape into the accusation in any way.

To add to my previous comment: People are calling you -currently- a liar because you refuse to acknowledge the incongruity and incorrectness of your statement regarding when and why you changed your handle on here. You could diffuse the matter by admitting the reality of the incongruity and claiming to have made a serious error when remembering what you did. We've all done that from time-to-time, and momentary mental lapses are common among humans and quite forgivable. But your continued willful refusal to even admit to the reality of the timeline falls into two broad, overlapping categories: 1) You are a troll. An excellent one. 2) You are lying and seek to deflect attention from your lie.
203
Google (using my full legal name in your profile)---you are at the five year old level now. I hope whomever you vote for never gets into office. Who ever you vote for probably would be fake and abusive just like you. You're sick. It's ok, you can get help. This blog has been going on since December 8th. You jump in on it, late, and preceed to call me a liar and try to degrade, defame, and promote people to search my name. The truth is something that scares you, it is obvious.
If I knew sick people like you and Graham would abuse my name like that here, from the beginning I wouldn't have used my first name. I think you're a felon, Google (using my full legal name). You never used your real name once. You are so insecure that when you see a chance to pick on a woman and flaunt her full name everywhere, that it makes you feel intensely superior. Yes, I provide my full name to places where I want people to know my full name. If I had wanted this blog to have my full name, that would have been my user name. I didn't do that. I used my first name and changed it to zzzzzzz after stalkers like you thirsty to exploit the privacy of women continued to abuse my privacy. In my eyes Graham and Google (using my full legal name in his profile) are rapists. You've raped and invaded my privacy on this blog with out my permission. You've taken my personal information and posted it in this blog and somehow think I should respectfully take this invasion of privacy rape. No, I won't consent to your virtual rape. I'm calling it for what it is.

Janelle, I've proven, beyond the slightest doubt that you have compulsively lied throughout this thread. Why don't you respond to that, instead of attacking me? Here, let try it again:
Me: You repeatedly lied throughout this thread, and multiple users have presented damning evidence of these lies. Why did you feel the need to lie to us, and then lie to us about the lies?
Ok, you go now. If you expect to be treated like an adult, you should learn how to participate in civilized discourse instead of constant name-calling you're inclined to.

@Janelle Jeffries: You changed your screen name at some point before 10:25pm on 12/09/2009. The first instance of your full name being used was at 8:16am on 12/10/2009. Please explain how you changed your screen name in reaction to something that hadn't happened.
I repeat, you are a habitual liar and really should consider seeking professional help.

Here it is in case you've forgotten again, Janelle. Why did you tell these lies, and why did you lie about making them? The only way out of the hole you've dug yourself is through honesty. I truly hope you're not so morally degenerate that you can't even admit it when caught lying.

Repetition of the same falsehood without acknowledgment of any of the past, frequently stated, well-documented criticism of said falsehood.
"In my eyes Graham and Google (using my full legal name in his profile) are rapists."
You've made that abundantly clear, and have already offended others who have been stalked and raped by your dilution of language into meaninglessness.
"No, I won't consent to your virtual rape"
Are you going to call the virtual police so we can have a virtual arrest and a virtual trial and virtual incarceration? (I nominate myself to be virtual interrogator and later, virtual jailer.)

December 10th, 2009, 8:16am: Graham provided this Portland Mercury blog my full legal name, without my permission.
Graham, you forcefully, foisted and raped my privacy by providing my full identity without my permission. You misused my right to decide when and where I would post my full name. If I willfully wanted to post my full name on this blog, I would've. These weren't all the posts where Graham continued to rape my privacy along with his pal Google (using my full legal name against my permission in his user profile).

This is also a lie, Janelle, just 15 minutes ago. Do you ever tell the truth? I hope you get some professional help, because something in either your head or your soul is broken. It's very sad.

@Janelle Jeffries: Wait... you're considering this an insult?
"Also, you're not a literal person [this was in response to you saying, 'I'm not a literal person']... What exactly are you then? A zeitgeist maybe, or a collective unconsious with an internet connection?"
I really fail to see what the insult was in there. Yes, it was kind of snarky... but insulting? Nope. Not one iota.

"Graham, you forcefully, foisted and raped my privacy by providing my full identity without my permission."
It's not private if YOU post it on public web sites, accessible to any search engine.
"You misused my right to decide when and where I would post my full name."
A) There is no such right.
B) Even if you the public were to enact such a right, you already consented to your name being posted publicly online by doing so yourself in multiple venues. No new truly private information was posted here by anyone other than you.
Great troll behavior, though, this is becoming one historic thread.
"This blog has been going on since December 8th."
Yes, but now it's getting really good. Thanks for the laughs.

I have been raped and this is an on-going rape of my privacy. Google (using my full legal name as his profile user name) may be committing a felony of identity theft as he is using my name without my permission. I can and will find out. Without a doubt, he has been guilty of Libel along with Graham and other commenters here.
213
Janelle, here is what Graham said at the time you listed:
"Also, you're not a literal person... What exactly are you then? A zeitgeist maybe, or a collective unconsious with an internet connection?"
Graham was making a bemused comment about you stating that you're not a literal person. It was a quip, not an insult. Please look up the words and phrases you don't understand before mistakenly deciding that you've been savagely raped by words.
Again: Graham wasn't insulting you. Try to wrap your head around that, and then maybe apologize to him.

"may be committing a felony of identity theft as he is using my name without my permission."
Nope. Not even close.
My parents have been the victims of identity theft. You demean their victimhood by diluting the seriousness of the crime with your petty self-sorrow.
If someone were to rename their profile "Google Bob Richardson" it would certainly be provocative and would make me wonder just what point it was they were trying to make (until it had been made clear by numerous other commenters, at least), but it wouldn't be identity theft by any stretch of the sane, rational mind.

I want to point out that Volm is Portland's Susan Hutchison.
Same hallmarks: she and supporters hide from conservative label without attempting to discuss or explain, has ties to failed campaigns, supporters scream "sexism" for no good reason other than to derail the conversation, promises "change" which means of course "shifting the city's priorities to the right" and so on and so forth.
Just call her "conservative Mary Volm" and be done with it. Don't go through the likely parade of stupid ads and string of "how did she lose?" weepy conservative press sob stories. Nobody who votes for her actually thinks she'll bring "change", they just think she'll be a dissenting GOP "no" vote on the council or she'll be SO OMG POWERFUL that Sam Adams is cowed and makes a sweeping speech saying he knocked up a 14 year old boy through some kind of gay immaculate conception, relinquishing his seat to a two-headed Frankenstein monster made out of the body of Sho, Tom Potter and Bob Ball.
And she WILL lose unless her only opponent is another person with ties to conservative anti-liberal groups, in which case the end result will depend on whoever makes the fewest gaffes.
This should be delicious fun.

Janelle, I would suggest you talk to Matt Davis about how frequently and savagely we're raping you. Back in the old days, I savagely raped him all the time, and eventually he sent me an email telling me about how he didn't appreciate being constantly raped by me, and that he had a well-qualified barrister that would surely litigate his case so that I would stop raping him so much. I never heard from the barrister, but I'm sure he would be willing to help you also.
217
Further: I sat on a Grand Jury for a month which heard nearly 100 cases. I won't go into specifics, but I do know what real crimes are, what the perpetrators of real crimes do, and have glimpsed what the victims of those real crimes suffer. You demean all those people by creating a mantle of false victimhood for the perceived written slights you rail against here.
218
"I want to point out that Volm is Portland's Susan Hutchison."
Quite possibly. But I think, after first posting the question neutrally hours earlier, is that what we're experiencing here today is a healthy dose of Harriet Christian.
So Mary Volm is Portland's Susan Hutchison for Portland's Harriet Christians. I think you're on to something.

Bob R., if your logic was true, which it is not, then people anywhere could legally use anyone's name at anytime for any reason. Freedom of speech, does have its limits. It is a personal attack to provide my full legal name here without my permission, that is Libel. Endangering my privacy is a personal attack on me and providing false information is defamation of character and putting me at the risk of being a victim of identity theft and other safety issues. The way Graham and Google (using my full legal name without my permission) have acted is by advertising my name. Sick and I'm continually being virtually raped on this blog. Change your profile name Google (using my full legal name without my permission). It will be hard for me to win a Libel suit at all here.
220
I meant, it won't be hard for me to win a Libel suit here. Clearly, look at Google (using my full legal name without my permission) advertising my full name. Trying to get the public to search my name, possibly felons who will steal my identity again.
221
"It is a personal attack to provide my full legal name here without my permission, that is Libel."
No, it's not. I'm calling you a liar, which is demonstrably true (are you ever going to address that???), hence is not libel.
"Endangering my privacy is a personal attack on me and providing false information is defamation of character and putting me at the risk of being a victim of identity theft and other safety issues."
How is the full name you've already put on the internet making you a victim of identity theft? Do you really think that simply knowing someone's name means you can steal their identity? Should we be worried about Mary Volm, or should we not use her name either?
"It will be hard for me to win a Libel suit at all here."
No, Janelle. It will be impossible.

"Bob R., if your logic was true, which it is not, then people anywhere could legally use anyone's name at anytime for any reason."
Bad logical analysis. Just because people can't use other people's name for ANY reason doesn't mean that they can't use other people's names for SOME reason.
The reason here seems pretty clear: The person currently posting as "GOOGLE JANELLE C. JEFFRIES" is using the word "Google" as a verb. This means that he/she is encouraging those who may stumble across this thread to Google your name. If Google is turning up something that you don't like, your beef somewhat with Google, but primarily with the information you've already publicly posted YOURSELF.
You are perfectly free to change your handle to "GOOGLE BOB RICHARDSON" -- you won't be stealing my identity in the least in that particular usage.
"It is a personal attack to provide my full legal name here without my permission, that is Libel."
Excellent troll bait. Pretending to know nothing about the law whatsoever while wrapping one's self in the blanket of said law. As has already been stated by nearly everybody: Truth is not libel.
Speaking of truth, you still haven't acknowledged the falsehoods you keep repeating in here about the timeline of when and why you changed your handle. Your beef appears to be that other people, by not using their own full names, are being juvenile. Well, I'm posting with my real name, you can Google me, and I'm asking you to retract your lies or at the very least admit the incorrectness of what you have stated.
"It will be hard for me to win a Libel suit at all here."
A complete reversal in the same comment. You are a very well-trained troll. Where do you normally practice?

Google (using my legal name without my permission), you just keep making my Libel case stronger. By the time I decide to take this baby to court for Libel, I will have one strong case with a huge win. You know, the thing about the Internet, which I love, is that nowadays the criminal authorities can track down a person's identity whether or not he/she posts his/her name. It's not going to be hard to take you to court.
Once again, Google (using my identity without my permssion) you don't realize how easy you're making this for me. You continue to now defame, slander me--and this is Libel.

@BlackedOut -
Buy me breakfast and we'll call it even.
@WomenVote:
If you are referring to the transit mall, through auto traffic was not previously allowed at all on the mall. For nearly 30 years, the auto lane was interrupted with blocks which had 30ft wide sidewalks and no through traffic.
Through auto traffic is now allowed. Those wide sidewalks have since been eliminated to make way for a continuous multi-use lane which can accommodate motorists and cyclists.
You are also confusing left with right turns. LEFT turns are allowed, as the multi-use lane is on the left side. To make a right turn requires three lefts. Nonetheless, the net effect of the mall has been to allow more options for motorists, not less. There are also plenty of signs and directional arrows in the traffic lights themselves.

"criminal authorities"
Why would you appeal to criminal authorities? Are you in the mafia? I'd much rather you sought the aid of _legal_ authorities, because I have friends in law enforcement and they can use a good snicker now and then.
This is so much fun. Really, Janelle, this is a brilliance performance. The whole willful idiot shtick you're doing helps everyone else feel just a tad bit superior.
Please, please, please, when you see your "criminal authority", be sure to include me as a party to your lawsuit. Either side, I don't care, I just want to be in the room to see the reactions.

@ BlackedOut: The longer the Libel towards me goes on here, the more I can win in court. So, the commenters's who are continuing to defame and slander me , you are doing this at your own risk. You are just building up my case, rather nicely. Remember, I don't consent to this virtual rape. I NEVER posted my full legal name on this blog. Graham DID that December 10, 2009 at 8:16am.
237
@A cat: Janelle, you are behaving in the manner of someone that is certifiably insane.
So there was this ~45 year old woman that lived down the street from my elementary school. And every so often when I was walking home she'd say something to me about how the Nazis were walking around on the telephone wires again, and she'd point, and I'd look up and there would be a squirrel. And so I'd keep walking, cause my parents had told me not to talk to strangers and this woman was strange. But when my mother was walking with me, she'd talk to the lady about various things, and it got quite interesting... Anyways, when I read about how your username might be "Trying to get the public to search my name, possibly felons who will steal my identity again." my first thought was "Nazi Squirrel Lady has learned to use a computer!"

Please provide a link to the ORS which indicates that such action is in any way a crime or subject to civil action.
To get you started: http://www.leg.state.or.us/ors/
(Hint: Libel is a civil claim, not a criminal one.)
Please also defend or retract your false statements. I've called you out specifically on this, by name, twice.
I'm accusing you by name of making false statements.
If I'm wrong about this, that's closer to libel than anything else so far. (I'm not wrong about this.) And curiously you've ignored everyone's direct requests to correct/explain/retract your falsehoods. Excellent.

@ Rich Bachelor thanks for catching my typo. I didn't type on a Word document first. I never pointed out all of your typos you had previously; sorry I didn't help you more.
240
I've never met the Nazi Squirrel lady, but I did used to live in an apartment above a woman who randomly shouted a lot about Eisenhower, the Russians, and the bomb. A nice, non-threatening woman, who unfortunately would shout angrily and turn and run if anyone said "hello" or tried to establish a rapport. She fed bologna to stray cats in the area. So I guess that brings us full circle to the "cat woman" remark that started this whole thing.

@Janelle Jeffries: It is 100% legal to say what a person's name is. I have broken no laws, I have violated none of your rights. If you feel that you can prove that I have defamed you, libeled you or otherwise injured you; please feel free to contact The Portland Mercury's legal department with a subpoena and they will provide you with the contact information that they have for me.
242
And if you somehow had a valid case for libel, you would then be forced to demonstrate any damage to your reputation or livelihood this entire silly thing has caused you.
243
Okay, and why do you keep saying that thing about Word documents? If you cut and pasted a document from there that had shit grammar and was poorly spelled, the result would be exactly the same. And hell yeah; if I'd pointed out every typo you've made, I'd be filibustering to the same degree you are.
I'm still curious what Mary Volm has to say about this.

@womenvote - I wonder if Volm started supporting the recall before or after she was laid off. I can't believe Jasun would have let it slide if he felt she was fired for supporting the recall.
@Janelle - You said: "Lol--please @ show me. I vote. I'm a registered/practicing voter for over 13 years. I can't help it if you're not literate. I didn't vote for the current Portland city officials. What that means, is who I voted for didn't get elected. Apparently, comprehension was never your strong suit, hopefully you can get help."
Sorry, the sentence I was referring to was from your original 'press release' on 9/1/09 where you wrote "Even though, I am not a Democrat or a Republican, as a registered Portland, Oregon voter, I did not vote for any of the Downtown Portland, Oregon city government officials and I even signed a petition the other day to recall Mayor Sam Adams, I enjoyed voicing my voice, even if I am just a minority."
I took this to mean you only voted for Ron Paul or someone similar and left the rest of the ballot blank, I stand corrected. It hurts me that you would question my literacy, maybe you could admit the sentence was somewhat unclear and poorly constructed. I would not describe this experience as a rape, but it still hurts. It seems libelous as well; I mean obviously I had demonstrated by writing a post that I was literate, yet you accused me of not being able to read. Do I have a lawsuit as well?

@ Bob R., lol. Please, I've done a lot of explaining. I think you just like me to repeat myself over and over, for some reason. You'll have to reread posts to figure things out. Starting with Graham December 8th, 2009 at 2:19pm and then when he felt, for some reason, that it was ok to just post my legal name that I own on this public blog without my permission on December 10, 2009 at 8:16am. Those two comments are just the beginning of slanderous/defamation/libel statements about me. Those comments, as well as other comments from some of the profile users here who slandered/defamed and were libel towards me (saying that I have a mental illness, etc.), are a part of a huge slew of comments, some I already compiled in a list and have posted twice. You're certainly not my attorney, lol.
249
@ Show me, you're just providing a huge chunk of information that is part of my point I discussed earlier.
First of all, I'm not a politician and I do not conduct press releases. Second of all, quoting me from a blog dated 9/1/09 has nothing to do with this blog about Mary Volm here, that’s off topic. Yet, some commenter’s here continued to dig up personal information about myself and post it here without my consent. I don't consent to the virtual rape of my privacy.

Here we go again, Janelle: You're a liar. This is extraordinarily easy to prove. That's what every is saying again and again. It's not libel, because it's true.
Accusing people of being rapists and felons, on the other hand, is much closer to libel. Do you not comprehend which side of the fence you're on?

The idea that I was being sexist against all women because, because, because I don't know why. You never explained that one. But it as well never happened.
The idea that anyone on here ever defamed you or libeled against you... never happened.
The idea that I raped you because I said what your name was, well, that's insulting and a misuse of the word rape.
The idea that you somehow are using the insult 'cracker' in an obsure British sense that means crazy instead of the much more commonly used racial perjorative sense... Maybe that's true... but I doubt it.
Liar, liar, pants on fire.

Janelle, you said the following things. They are demonstrably untrue, yet you continue to claim they are. This means you are uttering lies, thus a liar. How do you not understand this?
"My first name, I provided, people dug up my last name--that's why I switched to zzzzzzz. I switched to zzzzzzz because my last name is usually only provided to friends--not dug up by strangers."
"I never posted my last name but others dug up that information, so I switched to zzzzzz as several bloggers here want to character assassinate me here and make me wonder about my safety now as a woman."

"you, just like Bob R. are not my attorney."
Who is your attorney? I want to turn myself in. Please give the attorney's name (be sure to get permission first, we wouldn't want you to be raping your attorney) and contact info, and I'll get in touch directly.

@zzzzzzz: Would you go read the 3rd sentence of the link you just posted? I know you aren't a literal person, but it seems like you could do that at least...
I've even put it here just to make it easy:
"Libel generally refers to statements or visual depictions in written or other permanent form, while slander refers to verbal statements and gestures."
I mean, don't get me wrong, you are of course welcome to sue me for slander, but I think your lawyer won't laugh at you, (lets face it, as much,) if you tell them that you want to bring a libel suit instead of a slander one. Just FYI...

BTW, this is and has been my only user profile ID. Any law authority can defend that for me as well do to the technology they have. Again, accusing me of being a user profile I am not, that is slander. Once again, I am speaking the truth while the defaming, slanderous, libel towards me commenter’s continue to post lies about me.
I'm standing up for myself against the people who are defaming me, slandering me and who are being libel towards me on this blog. I still can't believe that some people on this site think that it's ok for a person to place an advertisement as a user profile like Google (using my name without my permission) does. That person is putting me in harms way, my personal safety, by promoting people to search for me on the Internet. This is one huge component of my case which I've already saved the comments to prove. None of you are lawyers and I do have a lawyer.

@Bob R. So I have a ex girlfriend who had 5 cats in a 400 square foot apartment. She had PTSD from worrying about nuclear war, (I'm not joking, that was the diagnoses,) but I don't think she was worried about Eisenhower. Of course, she got treatment and turned out fine in the end, and her name isn't zzzzzzz, so I doubt this is her. Was your apartment in the SE 30th and Division area though?

Can I sue the telephone book? Not only did they post my full name, but also my phone number and my address! Of course, instead of suing them for libel or something that might actually be possible, I should sue them for slander, cause they used sign language to communicate the information to other people. That, and rape. (I've seen the way those phone books look at you sometimes, everyone will believe that.)
274
"was your apartment in the SE 30th and Division area though?"
No, that particular apartment was in Corvallis. I cop to having 4 cats at that particular time in my own apartment (it wasn't my intention to have more than two, but a friend in economic need became my roommate and brought his two cats to join my two), while the cat woman downstairs actually had no permanent indoor cats at all. She would sit out on the stoop and feed the strays, and occasionally mine if one got out.
I would have loved to have a conversation with the woman, but she would shy away (while shouting) from any person who got closer than about 15ft or so.

@ Google (posting my full name without my permission telling thereby advertising people to search for me without my consent), Graham is the one who posted my full name (first, middle initial, and last name) without my permission on December 10, 2009 at 8:16am. Once again, I NEVER posted my full name on this Blog, Graham DID that. Now, help me understand you're problem in understanding the truth and why you want to continue to call me a liar when you are one? Stop continuing to rape my privacy. Stop using my legal name in your user profile to tell people to search for me online. You need help, please get it. Apparently you get off on endangering me; you don’t know the difference between right and wrong by endangering my privacy.
281
Read what you wrote, Janelle. You claim repeatedly to have changed your user name because of people posting your full name. THE CHRONOLOGY OF THIS MAKE NO SENSE. Do you not see how you repeatedly uttered false statements, despite people correcting you?

This is the most epic comments section in blog history.
One idiot named Jenelle has managed to bring the hammer down. I will forever be changed.
"The more commenters post slander, defaming, libel remarks to me, the better my case."
Guess what...my opinion of you is that you're a class A idiot or the best troll ever born. I'm going to frame this comments section. God you're an idiot.
I really want to go with you when you try to retain a lawyer. I want to see his face when you give him a comments section of a blog as your evidence. In fact, I'll give you $20 just to stand there. The look on the lawyers face would be worth every penny.

Yeah, I think the quietly, go sit in the corner, type of crazy people are more my style. I admit that they aren't nearly as entertaining, but they tend to be quicker to realize that something isn't right there and deal with the situation, where as the shouters tend to be in denial and avoid treatment. Have you seen "Crazy Enough"? I saw it with some friends, it really hit home for me, and some of them were like, "What? I don't get it."
Guys with 4 cats don't tend to collect labels as fast as women with 4 cats. I mean, "crazy cat guy" just doesn't fit, I don't know why.

I POSTED ONLY MY FIRST NAME ON THIS BLOG. I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MANY TIMES I'VE STATED THAT HERE. GRAHAM MADE THE DECISION TO POST MY FULL NAME AGAINST MY WILL DECEMBER 10, 2009 AT 8:16AM. STOP VIRTUALLY RAPING ME--COMMENTERS THAT ARE SLANDERING ME, DEFAMING ME AND THAT ARE BEING LIBEL TO ME. I FIGURE IF I TYPE IN CAPS YOU CAN SEE IT BETTER. I DON'T KNOW WHY I HAVE TO REPEAT MYSELF OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
I REPEAT: I DID NOT CHOOSE TO USE MY FULL NAME IN THIS BLOG, GRAHAM DID THAT. I ONLY USED MY FIRST NAME BEFORE I SWITCHED TO ZZZZZZZ AFTER PEOPLE STARTED TO POST BLOGS I POSTED IN SEPTEMBER HERE AND THEN GRAHAM POSTED MY FULL NAME.
I WANT YOU, THOSE WHO ARE RAPING MY PRIVACY, TO THINK HOW YOU ARE HARMING ME AND KNOCK IT OFF. I WILL TAKE THIS TO COURT. I DON'T LIE.

YOU NEED TO STOP FRAUDULANTY USING MY IDENTITY IN YOUR USER PROFILE. YOU'VE MISSED TWO DAYS OF THIS BLOG AND IT'S LIKE YOU'VE ONLY READ A FEW BLOGS. STOP ABUSING WOMEN. I'M A WOMAN AND YOU NEED TO STOP ABUSING ME!!! I AM SERIOUS--THIS IS GOING TO COURT.

I've read the entire thread, Janelle. What do you think I've missed?
The court date for this is going to be the greatest blog-town meet up ever. I'll bring the whip-its.

"In fact, I'll give you $20 just to stand there."
I'll see your $20 and raise you another $20.
In fact, I'll donate $100 to Janelle's favorite (legal, non-profit) charity if she'll let 5 of us drop in for a chat with her lawyer, whom she claims to have retained, although she hasn't yet revealed who that lawyer is.
If Janelle is concerned about raping her lawyer's identity by posting her lawyer's name here, she can have her lawyer contact my lawyer. Actually (unfortunately?) I have three lawyers who I occasionally consult with, but for general matters and getting referrals to specialists, I use the law offices of Richard B. Schneider, LLC. Jenelle, have your people get in touch with my people and we'll set something up. You can Google them.

I probably should have just published all of my predictions. Then I would look like some kinda crazy prophet or something. Instead, you need to believe me when I say that I knew that the ALL CAPS WERE COMING.
See, this is why I haven't talked yet about that bar we all drink at. Because soon she'll be making death threats, and will actually wander into the realm of legally actionable behavior. We may very well have driven a borderline personality right the fuck over said line. I'm not sure how to feel about this.

@tk: My understanding is that it is still libel. Slander is saying something directly, libel is using something else to say something. My understanding is that slander involves suing the mouth/hand/bodypart of the person that said/signed/etc something. If it is libel, then you communicating it via some sort of intermediate technology, be it radio waves, (yes, radio broadcasts are libel,) printing presses or the like. You aren't suing the electromagnetic spectrum nor the paper itself, you are suing the person committed the offense. So I'd have to guess that text to speech is still libel.
305
"Wait, so would a phone call be libel, then?"
Well, certainly if you called a Google Voice number which automatically transcribes voicemails into text, but otherwise I don't know. I still have two Google Voice invitations to hand out. I'll give them to the first two people who are actually sued in this matter by anyone. (Must have proof of papers filed in a local or state court.)

@Rich: Yeah, I changed my picture just in time for her to realize that I drink with Mr Cracker.
She asked earlier, (150 comments or so ago,) what exactly I was hiding/what was I afraid of, and I didn't answer, (had to get some work done, you know,) but I wanted to reply that I wasn't about to do her job for her, I wasn't going to troll both sides of the fight, that I didn't need to tell her that I'm afraid of heights and if she could work that into the discussion she might get somewhere. But besides that I wasn't born yesterday and when cops ask "Do you know why I pulled you over?" I don't have an answer. (I suspect that she started listing things off: "The Mexicans I have in the trunk?" "The 12 year old girl that isn't wearing any pants in the passenger seat?" "The bottle of rum that I just finished and threw out the window?" "Ohh, right, one of the lights is burned out on my license plate. Thanks officer, you'll forget about all my other guesses won't you?") Which may be why she has a criminal conviction and I don't.
But now I have a reason to not tell her where my Facebook page is: I fear for my personal safety from someone who has accused me of rape even though I've never actually been in the same room with them.

Incidentally, I just used Timothy Leary's name here without his permission (pre or posthumously), although if anyone is guilty of some kind of virtual mind/identity rape against anyone, I suspect the blame falls more on him than on me.

@tk: If it was a conference call, then yes, I think so, but I don't know for sure... But a straight person to person call is neither. One of the other things that goes along with defamation is that it has to lead to damages. There are no damages done by listening to someone call you up and tell you you eat babies for breakfast, you are the only person listening to that, so nobody is going to cancel your spokesman deal because they think you are a cannibal. (Of course, it could be harassment, but that is another topic entirely.)

@ Rich bachelor: I used all caps earlier as I was tired of repeating myself so people could see my words better, and I stated that.
The sick thing you don't realize is that you are continuing to defame me. You don't see that I'm actually concerned of my safety, not so much from people on this blog but for whatever real mentally ill person that may find the user profile name Google (using my full legal name). I have a real concern for my safety especially since Graham compiled on the Internet links he could find on me and posted it on this blog.
Unfortunately, I don't think the people who are slandering me, defaming me and are being libel to me on the blog site realize the danger you put me in by doing that. Like I said, I used my first name in my user profile only and then changed my user profile name to zzzzzzz soon after Matthew D. started quoting me from a 9/1/09 blog that has nothing to do with this blog. Then, not too long after that, Graham posted my full legal name. Too make matters worse, the user name Google (my full legal name) is on this blog.
At worse case, if I show up dead, or someone decides to still my identity or some other safety thing happens to me; I believe it will be because of this blog with all my personal information plastered everywhere.
Had I known ahead of time that people would want to do a search on my first name to find out my full name and plaster it all over this blog with personal links about me, I would have used a nickname or something with my user profile to begin with.
I have indicated to this blog that I have been a victim of rape on two occaisions, a victim of menacing and a victim of identity in the past. The courtesy thing to do would be to not continally post personal information about me instead of calling me a liar and posting everything you can about me.
I have a real serious concern about my personal safety and privacy. Especially after the actions of Graham and Google (my real full name). I feel that I have no choice but to file a libel/defamation/slander claim as the Portland Mercury editor and publisher have told me they will not delete anything.
As a woman, I should be able to reveal my full name on a website when I choose to do that. Not by some stranger Graham on a blog. Graham posted my full name on December 10, 2009 at 8:16am and on 12/10/09 he compiled serveral Internet links about me.
This saddens me that I am put in this situation, but I did not ask to reveal my full name or all those links on this blog. This was projected on this website by Graham. Google (my full name) user profile is still not helping my personal and safety concerns. But ultimately, The Portland Mercury editor and publisher are choosing to have my personal information here against my will as they have the power to delete comments that reveal personal information about me that was posted here by others.
So, if something does happen to me because a real person who is mentally ill hurts/kills me, the Internet will be a good source to pop up my obituary. Please think about how my personal safety has been compromised against my will.

So, if something does happen to me because a real person who is mentally ill hurts/kills me, the Internet will be a good source to pop up my obituary. Please think about how my personal safety has been compromised against my will.

Hey, the Mercury profile "GOOGLE JANELLE C. JEFFRIES" is now the #2 hit on Google for "JANELLE C. JEFFRIES". Can it become a #1 hit single?
314
But what about Mary Volm, Janelle? People know her real name, and aren't killing her. Why would anyone kill you just because they know your name?
315
I meant in that last post "victim of identity theft," I accidentally left one word out. Also, Graham posted a compilation of links about me on 12/10/09 at 2:32pm without my consent. I accidentally left out the time.
316
"The courtesy thing to do would be to not continally post personal information about me instead of calling me a liar and posting everything you can about me."
The _courteous_ thing to do would be to not repeatedly lie and then lay the blame for your own failings upon others, and then fall back to your (previously undisclosed) past tragedy as some kind of retroactive shield against criticism.
Is this what Marylhurst is turning out these days?

My father has a degree from Marylhurst and my partner is considering going there to complete his bachelor's. From our economic perspective, it will be a very, very expensive education, but the school has a good reputation. But if this is what passes these days for a sophisticated liberal arts education instilling values of life-long learning and critical reasoning, PSU may do just fine.
318
I am not a liar. I was raped two times when I was a 16 year old runaway. I was menaced in the fall of 2000. The first time I was a victim of identity theft was in 2002.
Your sickness on here is sick. It's like you want someone to hurt me.

Janelle, it was explained to you in ALL CAPS much earlier today: Nobody is accusing you of lying about your rape experiences. That is truly a tragedy and not something which should befall anybody. I hope the perpetrator was brought to justice.
Your reading comprehension (or willful and brilliant habit of misconstruing what people actually write) is dreadful. You are being accused of lies, very early in this thread, before anybody brought up the concept of rape. You were the first to mention it, well AFTER proof of your lies _in_ _this_ _thread_ had been revealed.
You were given the opportunity to state it was a mistake, to restate your assertions, to walk back your remarks, etc., and you did not do so.
You are therefore a liar. And not a very good one. But a highhackalarious troll.

JANELLE, THIS IS THE LIE. LOOK AT THE TWO STATEMENTS YOU MADE. THEY ARE NOT THE SAME. THE FIRST ONE IS NOT TRUE. YOU ARE A LIAR BECAUSE OF IT. YOU BEING A LIAR HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH RAPE.
"My first name, I provided, people dug up my last name--that's why I switched to zzzzzzz. I switched to zzzzzzz because my last name is usually only provided to friends--not dug up by strangers."
"I DID NOT CHOOSE TO USE MY FULL NAME IN THIS BLOG, GRAHAM DID THAT. I ONLY USED MY FIRST NAME BEFORE I SWITCHED TO ZZZZZZZ AFTER PEOPLE STARTED TO POST BLOGS I POSTED IN SEPTEMBER HERE AND THEN GRAHAM POSTED MY FULL NAME."

@zzzzzzz: Couple things
I) It isn't a separate blog, it is a separate thread. It is exactly the same blog. If it was a separate blog, it would have taken more than one click to do it.
II) You do realize that both your full name, and your lawyer's full name will be listed on the summons when you sue us?
III) You sure seem to want to be put on a pedestal a lot, "as a woman." (You've used that line 4 times now.)
IV) If knowing someone's full name is a threat to their safety, then why isn't the owner of my company suing for an article where they mentioned her full name earlier this week? (She didn't even know she was in it until I told her about it. That shows what sort of threat it was to her safety, random employees come up to her in the hall and say: "Hey I saw you in the paper. Well, not the paper exactly, but the newspaper's blog.")

You're right, Matthew - A few weeks ago the Oregonian blog did a brief item on me and it came as a complete surprise. Little did I know I was actually in tremendous danger of physical attack.
If Janelle's lawsuit is successful, I'll sue the Oregonian for 10X whatever Janelle gets out of us. They may be nearly bankrupt, but they've still got deeper pockets than me. Maybe not as deep as Rich Bachelor's pockets (does he play both sides of the fence, by the way?), but sufficient enough.

"If it was a separate blog, it would have taken more than one click to do it."
Careful there -- Amazon has the patent on one-click ordering. They may come after you for trying to apply the same one-click method to online menacing. Those are some guys you don't want to get sued by. (Or, as my English teacher would admonish, "Those are some guys by whom you don't want to get sued", followed closely by "Up with this bullshit I shall not put.")

I WILL NOT STAND FOR YOUR ABUSE!!! I AM NOT A LIAR!!!!!!! MY USER PROFILE NAME CHANGED FROM MY FIRST NAME TO ZZZZZZZ. THE ONLY THING THAT CHANGED WAS MY PROFILE IDENTITY NAME. I THINK GOOGLE AND BOB R. ARE THE COLDEST LIARS!! I'M NOT GOING TO TAKE THIS VERBAL ASSAULT. CHECK IT OUT THE PROFILE IDENTITY OF GOOGLE (MY FULL NAME)WASN'T ALWAYS THAT. HE HAD A DIFFERENT PROFILE NAME AS WELL. HE WAS "YOU'VE BEEN POISONED" THEN "BACK FOR THE POLITICS" BEFORE SWITCHING TO GOOGLE (MY FULL NAME). CALL THE PORTLAND MERCURY. ONCE YOU CHANGE YOUR PROFILE NAME, YOUR OLD PROFILE NAME DISAPPEARS. I AM NOT A LIAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU CHECK YOUR OWN THREAD GOOGLE. YOU CAME ON 12/10/09 AROUND 12:32PM AS "YOU'VE BEEN POISONED." YOUR OLD ID PROFILE NAMES AREN'T THERE, I WROTE THEM DOWN BEFORE YOU CHANGED THEM.
I AM NOT A LIAR!!! THIS LIBEL/SLANDER/DEFAMATION SUIT, I WILL WIN!!!

Let me restate this very slowly for you:
Nobody is disputing that you changed your user name.
The issue is that you made false statements as to the timing of this change, and as to the reason for this change.
But feel free to keep creating your own reality. It isn't pretty, but it's at least original.

This is amazing ya'll. Simply amazing. I will sleep well for the first time in many nights. My hope in humanity is saved (yes I'm not being sarcastic).
I will forever remember the day Janelle told me I could sue the Oregonian for using my real name.
Idiot.

I really hope that Janelle Jeffries sues Google for indexing websites that contain her full name. Or that she sues Facebook for posting her full name. Or that she sues Marylhurst for using her full name. Or that she sues Street Roots for using her full name. Or that she sues me for using her full name.
I would just like to make clear that anything and everything I've said about her is just my personal opinion and not drawn from evidence-based science. I've never met Janelle Jeffries in person and anything I could possibly know or think about her is pure conjecture. I apologize if anyone took anything I said as cold, hard fact.
But here is a fact: As of this comment, there will be approximately 330 comments on this blog post. About 82 of those comments are from Janelle Jeffries. My amazing math skills state that 24.8% of these comments are posted by Janelle Jeffries herself. I don't know what that truly signifies, but it's gotta mean something interesting.

"Congratulations, you are now a publisher
This is the rub. Anyone who operates a blog is now considered a journalist, and subject to the same rules as any other international publisher. Now, I don't believe for a minute that everyone in the "blogsphere" understands the tenets for reporting about celebrities and how the laws are different for a "Limited purpose public figure", much less, the rules for publishing facts about private citizens.
Goodbye Anonymity
Anonymous bloggers are learning that they do not have "carte blanche" to defame and libel people using the web, and a judge has ordered the identification of a "anonymous" blog poster:
Councilman Patrick Cahill is pursuing a libel lawsuit and wants the court to unmask the identity of the person who posted the messages to an Internet blog under the alias ``Proud Citizen.''
A Superior Court judge has ordered Internet provider Comcast Cable to release the Web address of the person who posted the messages.
To improve goodwill (and performing a public service), Microsoft recently spent millions of dollars tracking-down phishers to hold them accountable for their crimes:
Microsoft's lawsuits were brought under the Lanham Act, a federal trademark protection law that carries a maximum of $1 million fine per violation. The so-called "John Doe" suits are generally used when the plaintiff does not know the names of the defendants.
Every Web site and e-mail contains a unique Internet address that can be traced back to the service that hosts it. Once a federal judge gives consent for the lawsuits to go forward, the company can subpoena the Internet service providers from which the phishing scams originated in an attempt to force the ISPs to reveal the identities of the account holders.
Libel and the limits of the First Amendment
United States Courts have long recognized limits to the free speech clause of the First Amendment and it does not give you the right to scream “fire” in a crowded theatre (US Supreme Court, Oliver Wendell Holmes, 1919).
This is especially true with regard to false publications so inflammatory that they would incite a reasonable person to committing illegal acts. In these cases the Defendants published lies that were so offensive that the publishers could reasonably forecast harassment, threats and intimidation to result from their publications. (see Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire, 315 U.S. 568 (1942), Cohen v. California, 403 U.S. 15 (1971), Feiner v. New York, 340 U.S. 315 (1951), Cox v. Louisiana, 377 U.S. 288 (1965)).
We must remember that the "right to your own opinion" has Constitutional limits and those who defame others cannot drape themselves in the First Amendment and prevail: (see Boyce v. Wake County)
"The use of a known lie as a tool is at once at odds with the premises of democratic government and with the orderly manner in which economic, social, or political change is to be effected.
Hence the knowingly false statement and the false statement made with reckless disregard of the truth, do not enjoy constitutional protection."
The US Courts have the right to restrict speech if the speech constitutes "Fighting Words". Fighting Words means speech usually intended to be a personal insult and directed to a specific person, which by their very utterance inflict injury and tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace.
Fighting Words are not protected under the First Amendment because their slight social value is outweighed by the government's compelling interest in social order. (see Chaplinsky v. New Hampshire, 315 U.S. 568 (1942), Cohen v. California, 403 U.S. 15 (1971), Feiner v. New York, 340 U.S. 315 (1951), Cox v. Louisiana, 377 U.S. 288 (1965)).
Cyberlibel cases are exploding
Cyberstalking and Cyberlibel laws in the USA have made it clear that internet harassment and defamation are serious offenses. Here are some US laws that are being used to prosecute internet harassment, invasion of privacy and defamation:
“It is the policy of the United States -- to ensure vigorous enforcement of Federal criminal laws to deter and punish trafficking in obscenity, stalking, and harassment by means of computer”. (see 47 U.S.C. § 230(b)(5))
“Electronically mail or electronically communicate to another and to knowingly make any false statement concerning death, injury, illness, disfigurement, indecent conduct, or criminal conduct of the person electronically mailed or of any member of the person's family or household with the intent to abuse, annoy, threaten, terrify, harass, or embarrass.” (see North Carolina Code §14-169.3(b)(3))
Federal law 47 U.S.C. § 223(a)(1)(C) penalizes whoever:
(1) in interstate or foreign communications-
(C) makes a telephone call or utilizes a telecommunications device, whether or not conversation or communication ensues, without disclosing his identity and with intent to annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any person at the called number or who receives the communications.
Intrusion and false light claims as types of invasion of privacy actions:
1 - intrusion upon the plaintiff's seclusion or solitude or into his private affairs; and
2 - publicity which places the plaintiff in a false light in the public eye.
More than ever before, injured parties are seeking remedies for damage to their business and reputation, and many of these cases are related to "anonymous" postings in message boards, chat rooms, forums and blogs.
Now, more than ever before, victims are fighting back and participants in message boards, chat rooms, forums and blogs are now being hailed into court in record numbers.
Cyber libel can be a criminal offense
Any internet publisher must be cognizant of the laws of more than 190 countries and the varied State laws in the USA. While a flippant insult or anonymous jab might be legal within your jurisdiction, the libelous comment might actually be a crime if the injured party resides in an area with strict anti-defamation laws."

Congratulations, zzzzzzz a.k.a. Janelle C. Jeffries, you have just lifted a copyrighted article and reposted it here. Unlike any of the other people here, who under the terms of the very article you just pilfered are NOT liable for anything, YOU may very well have just violated the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, unless you can show how reposting an entire article, rather than merely excerpting and linking, constitutes "fair use" in this instance.
I know you have two brain cells to rub together, as that many are required to copy, paste, and then click "preview comment" followed by "post comment". But the number of additional cells is increasingly in doubt.
Warning to all content providers: Janelle C. Jeffries _may_ be a profligate pirate. Watch out!

I just want to point out that this is the quote of the year: "Your sickness on here is sick."
I think I will use it on 411 or FB whenever I'm dealing with overly persistent folks.
"I think I'm within my own self-directed protocol to ignore multiple one-line messages that say 'woof!' and nothing else, so I don't know why you're using that kind of language and making those baseless accusations. Your sickness on here is sick."

What Janelle Jeffries seems completely oblivious to is the fact that true speech is not slanderous speech. If her name is really Janelle Jeffries and she really did lie repeatedly about easily provable facts, then to say that her name is Janelle Jeffries and that she lied is not libelous speech. Game. Set. Match.

(Please note, the word "subpoena" is not an obscenity. Thank you for your time and attention.)

Once again, people lie, lie, and lie on this yellow journalistic so-called blog on "BREAKING: Mary Volm For City Council?"--Portland Mercury's finest display of the type of cyber stalkers they attract to harass citizens privacy of themselves and family.
Bob R., I quoted paragraphs from that article and if you went to the link to read the whole thing, you'd see it was not the whole article—I’m sure you saw the beginning and end quotes.
Graham, the fact remains that you, without my consent at this Portland Mercury Blog posted my full name on this website December 10, 2009 at 8:16am. Graham was the first to insult me December 8th, 2009 at 2:19pm. Despite my asking people to respect my privacy as a citizen, woman who has been a victim of rape, identity theft and menacing, "the embodiment of innocence" user-profiler now who was called "Google (insert my full name)" yesterday promoted people to search me on the Internet.
The real sick thing here, folks, is that Graham posted several Internet 6 links December 10, 2009 at 2:32pm with an obituary of my Grand Aunt who died recently, which the majority of my family has listed, as well as myself. Privacy now has not just been disturbed by me, but now my whole family.
Just because my full name is on the Internet in other websites does not give any amateur journalist (that is what anyone is called here who posts a comment on a blog see my last post) the authority to post my last name and all my family combined. A journalist needs to ask a person to post his/her first last name. I’m not being interviewed here. The “Portland Mercury: BREAKING: Mary Volm For City Council?” blog here is not THE INTERNET, it is a part of the Internet. I never consented to Graham to post my full name, and all those links FOUND ON OTHER WEBSITES to be posted on this blog.
No, your sickness here must be exposed to everyone with the facts. It is sick because several people here invaded my privacy as amateur journalists invaded my privacy on this blog. Not too mention the mental illness labels several commenters’ here have posted about me.
Bob R., I will file my claim when I'm ready to. You see, all of you keep on posting more things to build my case. Rest assured the perpetuators here who were libel, slanderous, defamed me, and invaded my privacy; you will know who my attorney is when I file my claim. I hope the people who have slandered, defamed, and were libel toward me can get help and realize that when you endanger other’s personal safety, that is harmful.
More...
Bob R., I quoted paragraphs from that article and if you went to the link to read the whole thing, you'd see it was not the whole article—I’m sure you saw the beginning and end quotes.
Graham, the fact remains that you, without my consent at this Portland Mercury Blog posted my full name on this website December 10, 2009 at 8:16am. Graham was the first to insult me December 8th, 2009 at 2:19pm. Despite my asking people to respect my privacy as a citizen, woman who has been a victim of rape, identity theft and menacing, "the embodiment of innocence" user-profiler now who was called "Google (insert my full name)" yesterday promoted people to search me on the Internet.
The real sick thing here, folks, is that Graham posted several Internet 6 links December 10, 2009 at 2:32pm with an obituary of my Grand Aunt who died recently, which the majority of my family has listed, as well as myself. Privacy now has not just been disturbed by me, but now my whole family.
Just because my full name is on the Internet in other websites does not give any amateur journalist (that is what anyone is called here who posts a comment on a blog see my last post) the authority to post my last name and all my family combined. A journalist needs to ask a person to post his/her first last name. I’m not being interviewed here.

@Janelle Jeffries: Please point out anything that I've said that is demonstrably not true. If I am wrong or incorrect, I WILL admit to it.

WHO TOLD YOU THE GAY BEAR SECRETS, GRAHAM!?
Quick, Bob! Jump on my back! We'll flee to a place where bears are safe!
No, not the Purgle. Home Depot. We can crack jokes about the caulk and nod knowingly to the lesbians.

@Janelle Jeffries: Just so that you're aware: Oregon Revised Statute 31.152(2) states that after the people you sue for libel successfully file an anti-SLAPP injunction against your frivelous lawsuit, you will be liable for our attorney fees. Just thought you should know.
363
Janelle, if you think anyone has done anything wrong here, you can contact the Mercury's published at steve@portlandmercury.com, or you can call him at 503-294-0840. Ask for Steve. He'll get things sorted out for you.

Graham, what you are not understanding, and I don't know why is that Freedom of Speech has limits. Also, citizens have privacy. The Portland Mercury website here is just that, a website, not THE INTERNET. You, as an amateur journalist without my consent posted my full name as well as six Internet links about me and insulted me in serveral other comments.
Why do I need to repeat myself so many times? An amateur journalist reporter can't just post personal information about someone in a blog (see my two posts ago comment)without his/her permission.
Why not print out all the comments, go back and read what you did to me. Your first insult to me: December 8, 2009 at 2:19pm, December 10, 2009 8:16am posting my full name and December 10, 2009 posting 6 Internet links about me and my family. The comments here, aren't all the ones in which you gave more insults. If you still can't figure out right from wrong by now, why? The fact remains The Portland Mercury Blog topic is not my personal information, full name and web links provided by you, Graham. The topic for this blog is on Mary Volm, but for some reason you wanted to blast anything and everything about me. Do you not understand about privacy?
I provided my first name only to this blog, you searched throughout the web to post my full name and personal web links about me into this blog without my permission. Furthermore, the topic of this blog is not about me. You misused and abused my personal information by posting my full name and web links about me and my family. That is not ok to do that with my privacy. Blogs are still regulated by laws which limit freedom of speech. Everytime you and others here continue to use my full name, you are doing that without my consent.

@Janelle Jeffries:
Several things:
1. I did not insult you on 12/08/2009 14:19. I do not know why you think I insulted you. Please stop saying that I insulted you. That statement is a lie and I feel that by making this statement you've held me up for contempt, hated and ridicule.
2. You have on numerous occasions accused me of making sexist remarks towards you and other women. This is not true. I feel that by making this statement you've held me up for contempt, hated and ridicule.
3. On numerous occaisons you have accused me of being a rapist. That is not true. I feel that by making this statement you've held me up for contempt, hated and ridicule.
I would appreciate it if you would retract all of these statements as none of them are true and are causing me adverse unpleasant feelings.

@ the embodiment of innocence, I've done that and I indicated that several comments ago. In addition, this yellow journalistic Portland Mercury Blog here has a "Report this comment" function in which you select either: Off topic, threatening, or spam box to check, but the editor and publisher only have it for decoration.
@ Bob R. BTW, if you read all the links Graham posted without my permission, you'll see that I received my first Bachelor of Arts from Marylhurst University in 2008. So, I certainly completed their writing requirements. After so much verbal attacks here with people invading my privacy I can only compete so long with my own human strain. I'm not a professional writer.
Once again, I certainly have not enjoyed the unwanted interview here on this blog that's supposed to be about Mary Volm but instead, Graham decided to make it an entertainment piece in which I was the uninformed guest of honor.

"Who are you Matthew D.--(that last comment was intended for you, however I still wouldn't be suprised if rich bachelor is Mayor Adams)? Is that just the same as Matt Davis? People who are afraid to identify themselves have things to hide. I'm not afraid to identify myself--I use my real name."

@Janelle Jeffries: On 12/08/2009 18:23 You stated that you had graduated from Marylhurst University in 2008. In the body of your comment you also stated that your first name is Janelle. I was curious if these were true statements or not [this is called fact checking]. So I googled the words, "janelle marylhurst 2008". This is the result that came up: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&source=… As of 12/11/2009 15:13 the top result has your full name explicitly written in the summary of the top link [a link to a 2008 press release from Marylhurst University listing recent graduates].

Here are some comment compilations of insults and invasions of my privacy by Graham. Graham has said that for those who support Mary Volm they “come off souding like insecure wack-jobs” (December 8, 2009 at 9:58pm), called me a “defensive bigot” on December 9, 2009 at 12:24pm, he displayed my full name without my consent on December 10, 2009, 8:16am, said that he felt that I am “suffering some sort of mental disorder” (December 10, 2009, 10:29am), on December 10, 2009 11:15am he provides information to “seek some sort of counseling to help you deal with your persecution issues”, says “the market forces have spoken and they really want you to seek professional counseling services to help you deal with whatever seems to be troubling you” December 10, 2009 at 12:38pm, says, “Street Roots can put you in touch with some pro bono mental health providers”, and Graham then list six internet links with personal information about me without my permission on December 10, 2009, 2:32pm (see his quotes below).
Graham lists several more comments not posted here due to the numerous length and time consuming effort that it takes to do this, about me that insult and invade my privacy every time he uses my full name without my authorization.
Graham: December 8, 2009, 2:19pm:
“@[my first name]: Do you even know who Cat Woman is? She's not the savior of "Gotham City" by any means. Selina Kyle is a jewel thief and vamp. Also, you're not a literal person... What exactly are you then? A zeitgeist maybe, or a collective unconsious [sic] with an internet connection?”
Graham: December 8, 2009, 9:58pm:
“@ABS & [my first name]: If the two of you represent the level of support and intellectual rigor that can be expected from Ms. Volm's supporters... well... I feel sorry for whomever her campaign manager turns out to be. It's tough when the most vocal people on your side come off sounding like insecure defensive wack-jobs.”
Graham: December 9, 2009, 12:24pm:
“So essentially [my first name] is a defensive bigot and ABS is a deranged schizo.
The candidate is dating someone who failed to show any leadership skills on the highest profile political campaign in PDX during the last year. The copy on her website is in desperate need of a copy editor and she has posted no positions or platforms. So all we have to go off of for her judging her worthiness as a candidate are her Facebook page (I refuse to use Facebook, so I've got no idea what it says) and her vocal supporters. Still not looking good for Ms. Volm.”
Graham: December 9, 2009, 1:44pm:
“[my first name]: Do you consider yourself a bigot? Because you have repeatedly made bigoted statements. Is there a reason why you jumped straight in to ad hominem attacks against people who dared to criticize your chosen candidate? Why are you so quick to tell us your GPA and educational background(protip: no one cares)? Your ability to carry yourself and to promote the message of the candidate you're supporting are sadly lacking. I would recomend [sic] that you take a step back and examine your writing style and motivations. Are you supporting Ms. Volm simply because you identify with a single mother? Or do you agree with her platform (protip: please say what her platform is so that we can debate things that actually matter)?”
Graham, December 10, 2009, 8:16am:
“@[my full name]: Nicely played! You really showed him.”
Graham, December 10, 2009, 10:29am:
“Friends! Brethren! /b/Towners! It is obvious that [ my full name] is suffering some sort of mental disorder. I am not qualified or certified in accurately diagnosing what sort of problem she has, but I am qualified in stating that we are not helping her by poking her with metaphorical sticks.
I feel that we should back off and hopefully she will stop acting out and maybe realize that she is engaging in unhealthy behaviors. I can only wish her the best and hope that she receives the sort of help and mental health support that she so obviously and desperately needs.”
Graham, December 10, 2009, 11:15am:
“@[my full name]: The first step in solving our problems is accepting that we have said problems. This is often the most difficult step. I really do hope that you seek some sort of counseling to help you deal with your persecution issues. I would recommend Cascaida Behavioral Healthcare (simply because they came up first on a Google search). http://www.cascadiabhc.org/ or 503.238.0769”
Graham, December 10, 2009, 12:38pm:
“@[my full name misspelled]: You claim to be a liberatian... Well, the market forces have spoken and they really want you to seek professional counseling services to help you deal with whatever seems to be troubling you. Unfortunately, as an unemployed libertarian, I'm not entirely sure how you're going to pay for said counseling. Maybe if you were a socialist you could morally take advantage of the numerous free community services offered by the city, county or state.”
Graham, December 10, 2009, 12:58pm:
“@[my full name]: I'm so sorry that I misspelled your name. I won't do it again. But really, get help. I'm sure that the staff at Street Roots can put you in touch with some pro bono mental health providers. It will make your life so much more manageable than it currently is.”
Graham, December 10, 2009, 2:32pm:
“@[my full name]: The following is a list of places that have your full name on their website. They are all raping you. Some of them even have photos of you; that's like double-rape. [lists six outside Internet links about me and my family]”

By your own standards, Janelle, you have endangered your own safety because you have taken no steps to call the publisher, the editor, or my lawyer. I already gave you his info. You'd rather sit here and be just as entertained as we are. I appreciate the love you have for us, this is truly a wonderful holiday gift.

I would like to apologize to Cascadia Behavioral Healthcare for dragging their name into this. I just referenced them due to their positioning on a Google search [good job guys, high google ranking is a quality accomplishment].

Poor Graham, clearly confused. He apparently thinks that the Portland Mercury Blog is THE INTERNET. He also thinks that the topic is about me so he posts as much information about me as possible. Clearly, he has been confused since December 8, 2009.
It’s ok Graham, I can help you with your confusion. This blog is titled: “Breaking: Mary Volm for City Council? Election 2010 News” by Matt Davis posted on Tuesday, December 8, 2009 at 10:36am.
Now, do yourself a favor and stop posting personal information about people here who never asked to have their full name and website links about themselves posted on this blog, a website, not THE INTERNET. Please stick to the topic. But, I know you can’t, because you clearly have proven you can’t stay on the topic of this Blog. Thank you.

Janelle zzzzzzzz Jeffries clearly is enjoying the attention. any sane person would have bugged out long ago. that she keeps playing this game with Graham et al demonstrates that this is fun for her. possibly in a psychotic way, but fun nonetheless. Matthew, at least, went out for a drink and staff party. Janelle zzzzzzzzz seems to have not moved from her keyboard in days.
i'm not sure, but i'm guessing that posting a comment to a blog makes you part of a public conversation, and, if you choose to hide your identity, tough noogies if someone outs you. this has been going on since the Internet 1, nevermind Internet 6 (made with SuperTubes). people have been outed like this for since a week after Tim Berners-Lee made the first browser and the first troll thought he could get away with sneaky snark. the law may be unsettled on this, but it's one of the most common things on all 6 of the Nets: finding out who trolls & anons are & then outing them (fingerization rocks).
you want to hide who you are? go to the library & post from a false hotmail account. otherwise you're fair game.

@ Bob R. No, Bob R., this is incorrect. I've commmented before that I've contacted the Portland Mercury. Here's more information: I've sent e-mails to Matt Davis (news editor), Steve H. (webmaster) and Rob (publisher) on 12/10/09. I spoke to Rob (publisher) on the phone as well today, 12/11/09.
Repeating myself again, I will file a claim. People will know when I do that and will then know who my attorney is. Also, I'm going to stop repeating myself over and over here. It's getting old.
Can people stick to the topic of the blog? I'm actually tired of seeing myself continually being character assassinated here. I think everyone else is too (the ones not insulting me and providing personal information about me against my will). I’m starting to wonder if the Portland Mercury gets paid for blog posts posted. Maybe this is why some people here are trying to keep the drama going.

OK, Janelle. Back to the topic of the post: I don't know much about Mary Volm's policy positions. Could you tell me about what qualities of hers appeal to you, so that I can get a better picture of her as a candidate?
408
@ the embodiment of innocence, go to the comment yourself. Scroll to Graham’s comment December 10, 2009, 2:32pm. I’m not going to repost those six personal links about myself which has my Great Aunt’s obituary posted with most of my family members included as well. This is sickening to me. I never gave permission to have my life posted into a blog like that.
409
No, Janelle. I was asking you what you felt about Mary Volm as a candidate. Nothing about yourself, I just want to know why she appeals to you as a candidate. Isn't her candidacy the topic of this blog post?

@Janelle
Tiger Woods didn't ask for The National Enquirer to investigate if he was doing it with a porn star or two. They found out he did. He can't sue them for it. If you didn't want that information on the internet you shouldn't have put that information on the internet. There isn't a crime in linking to anything that is public like that. Tough cookies darlin'
Please e-mail the webmasters and editors of those websites linked and complain about them raping your privacy.

@tabarnhart: Yeah, but they didn't have any good beer at that bar though. I thought about ordering a cocktail, but it seemed like pushing my luck since I was already skipping out on the CEO's speech to get the drink. Ohh well, it was still a good day, I got my review done, and it was good, I got a bonus, and it was good, and I got to take the afternoon off.
413
Yes, Janelle....if this thread is supposed to be about Mary Volm, please enlighten us on her merits as well as her political platform rather than continually bringing the conversation back around to Graham.
414
@tabarnhart, very offensive. Do you want to see my Great Aunt's obituary that Graham provided December 10, 2009 at 2:32pm without my permission?? I am not "fair game" as you say--sick. I am a woman, not a politician. Portland Mercury is not THE INTERNET, only a part of it. Graham searched around for as much information about me in outside websites using my first name and then posted my full name on December 10, 2009 at 8:16am without my permission. You know, the right thing to do is everyone should see that what the Portland Mercury is doing by not deleting off topic comments is playing a role in this. I posted my first name, Graham, is the one who psychotically dug for my personal information. Once again, this blog is about Mary Holm. By the way, tabarnhart, is that your real name? I don't regularly go to blogs. If I knew that just posting my first name would incite someone like Graham to dig up information about me, I would have used an alias/nickname.
When I went to this blog December 8th, 2009, I had no idea that Graham, and others, would want me to become the topic of the blog rather than Mary Volm. Get a clue, tabarnhart. Only one other person at this blog provided his first/last name. My full name was pulled up from other websites and then posted here against my will by Graham. I am for an individual to make the choice where s/he would like to post their full personal information. What Graham did was way out of line. Would you like Graham to find a family member obituary for you? Because I'm sure he'd love to search on the Internet for it and post it for all to see like he did to me without my consent. I’ve contacted the Portland Mercury; they won’t delete any off topic remarks here. So, yes, I will file a claim. Not that I want to, but because I want to not have my full name come up number one on Google to this blog. Thanks to the “embodiment of innocence” profile user who had his profile user name as “Google [my full name]” on December 10, 2009. This is sick.
I’m a woman who has been a victim of rape, menacing and identity theft in the past. This is an unwanted rape of my privacy which causes me to have a concern for my personal safety. Don’t you see that now people who have a real mental illness can harm me much easier now thanks to Graham foisting my personal information here? I’m going to exercise my rights to the fullest. Have you ever had someone post your full name in a blog with several personal links about yourself and one of the links is an obituary of a family member that includes a list of your relatives in it without your permission? I am not free game. I’m a citizen who should be respected that I only wanted to use my first name. I need some social justice and restorative justice here.

I'm still offering $20 just so I can see the lawyer's face when you present him with this blog posting and then say you want to sue EVERYBODY on here who you felt insulted you.
Actually if I can bring a recording device to record his laughter I'll give you another $20.

@Janelle Jeffries: What do you find so compelling about Mary Volm as a candidate? Please let us know what positions and platforms she will be running on and why you feel that she will make the best candidate. If possible, please refrain from saying anything sexist, racist or classist.
418
@Janelle Jeffries: I often feel marginalized and I have been homeless in the past. Does Mary Volm represent my interestes?
419
@zzzzzzz: "Only one other person at this blog provided his first/last name."
You are a liar. Both Matt Davis, and Wm. Steven Humphrey, have provided their full names here.
"When I went to this blog December 8th, 2009, I had no idea that Graham, and others, would want me to become the topic of the blog rather than Mary Volm."
Actually, I advised you on December 10, 2009 at 1:22 AM that the best way to make this go away would be to walk away from the computer. I know you saw that comment, you responded to it. After that, Graham posted your full name. Now you are claiming that you had no idea? If you drive though a sign that says road closed, and then fall off a half built bridge, do you get to sue the highway department?

Facts of the now: Janelle Jeffries has posted comments on this blog post 92 times. There are currently 418 comments total on this blog post. That means that Janelle Jeffries accounts for 22% of the comments on this post.
Janelle Jeffries has said the word, 'Graham' 82 times.
Janelle Jeffries has said the word, 'Mary' 27 times.
By my estimates, Janelle Jeffries cares more about me than Mary Volm by ratio of 3.2:1. I hope that means she'll vote for me if I ever run for office.

I care about the marginalized and the homeless. Jannelle could vote for me too should I decide to run.
422
that would be "character-assassinated" - hyphenated.
"Repeating myself again" and "stop repeating myself over and over" - of course, brought to by the Dept of Redundacy Dept
the Merc doesn't get paid for blog posts - Merc staffers do, but they blog as part of their regular paper duties. commenters do it for the love of the art. or in some cases, because they like to see themselves lifted high on their crucifix above the adoring masses.

@Matthew D. Excuse me, I wasn't counting the Yellow Journalistic Portland Mercury team. I'm also beginning to wonder if some of those Yellow Journalistic Portland Mercury employees are blogging here making money off of each post wanting it to keep going to they can have a good time for the holidays. Anyways, I will get justice. I don't care about any of you here that just hurl insult after character assassination after insult towards me. I don't care about your personal life or who you are because you don't care about me. I never tried to search for information on any one of you to post it here for all to see. I am not rich, nor do I wish to be rich, I am poor. Thanks to Graham, I may be poor and quite possibly homeless, sooner, rather than later. FYI, I grew up in a single-parent family and I have experiences being homeless myself. I can only think that this is one of top ten most evil things that have happened to me in my life. I will never forget this because it will continue to ruin my life. Please reread my Grand Nancy's obituary that Graham so disrespectfully posted for your sick viewing pleasure against my will. I'll be sure to tell all my friends about how Portland Mercury is a fiend off poor people for stories. I’ll be sure to tell all my friends if you want someone to dig up a family member’s obituary then go blog on the Portland Mercury website. It also would be very helpful for me to tell me who you’ll vote for in all upcoming elections, that way, I’ll be sure to not vote for that candidate if s/he represents your ideals.
424
@Janelle Jeffries: Lets get back on topic as you requested. What positions and platforms of Mary Volm's candidacy do you think make her the superior candidate. Please refrain from any classist, racist or sexist comparisons.
425
Graham, I'm suprised you haven't posted an obituary here from one of Mary Volm's family members. Are you sleeping or something? Yep, I think you are a Portland Mercury Yellow Journalistic employee. So disrespectful, still continuing to post my first and last name. Sick.

@zzzzzzz: "I don't care about your personal life"
Nobody asked about your GPA either, but that didn't seem to have stopped you from sharing.
"Thanks to Graham, I may be poor and quite possibly homeless, sooner, rather than later."
Huh. Yet another detail I don't need to know about.
"Please reread my Grand Nancy's obituary"
I never read it in the first place.
"that Graham so disrespectfully posted for your sick viewing pleasure against my will."
I don't care. It isn't sick viewing pleasure, it is BORING!
"It also would be very helpful for me to tell me who you’ll vote for in all upcoming elections"
Yet another lie. Or maybe you do care about my personal life, and the sentence at the top is the lie? I don't know.

I'm on topic, according to Graham and Portland Mercury standards. I'm still waiting for him to answer my question. When are you going to post an obituary from a family member of Mary Volm, Graham?
BlackedOut: as far as I'm concerned you don't control the questions here or the blog and you are one of the person’s that has continued to virtual rape me. In fact, the Portland Mercury Yellow Journalistic people do. BlackedOut, tell me your full name so I can post it all over this blog over and over again. The Portland Mercury only is a good tool for toilet paper when you run out. I'll be sure to print this blog to use for toilet paper for when I become homeless because of Graham and people like you who get off on posting my personal information without my permission. BlackedOut, you must be another employee of this fine Portland Mercury Yellow Journalistic team. BlackedOut, apparently you don't realize that you are a contributor to the destruction of my future. The sickness just goes on and on in this Yellow Journalistic Portland Mercury Blog. I'm not forgetting that Graham posted my personal information, especially the link for my Grand Aunt so easily. Portland Mercury is doing nothing about my raping of my privacy. I will continue to type that Portland Mercury sucks. Portland Mercury is Yellow Journalism. Portland Mercury is Yellow Journalism. Pass it on.

You'll be homeless, but you'll be able to afford printer paper? You do know they give the print edition away for free in little boxes all over town, right? I'd recommend you use that instead. (Although really, I'd use the Asian Reporter, the newsprint is more absorbent.)

Stop raping us, Janelle. Please, stop. We don't like it. This doesn't feel good. Stop raping us. Please, Janelle. Stop raping us, please. Please stop.
442
Janelle is clearly either psychotic or a fake. whatever, she needs help. this is just sad to see. doesn't anyone who knows her know she's losing it this bad? if she was actually raped, and now is equating blog commentry with rape, then she's totally lost touch with reality.
and reading (very quickly) some of her other comments, she's also a permanent victim.
i've seen this movie before.

Tabarnhart, Mary Volm would actually be an interesting person to address your concern to. She apparently has an interest in helping the marginalized, and presumably knows Janelle. Her response to this would certainly give us all some insight into her character.

embodi, someone who is her friend should step in. this is not about her full name being posted or anything else on this post. this is an excuse, and no longer funny.
445
I wasn't joking. The only person we know to be acquainted with Janelle is Mary Volm. If you think someone should intercede on her behalf, I don't think we know of anyone else in a position to do so.

Garret is too much of a pussy to run for public office. He would be the biggest joke canidate of all!

The Portland Mercury Protest for restorative justice
This is my protest for the raping of my privacy my with my last name and six web links posted by Graham (he surfed it off the Internet and posted it on this blog) without my consent which included an obituary of my Grand Aunt listing all my family members. I will not stop my protest until The Portland Mercury deletes all the comments that invaded my privacy. I never consented to my last name being posted against my will on this blog site. As far as I'm concerned, all comments that have invaded my privacy with my commenter’s posting my full name and the six web links has provided an open opportunity to spam, steal my identity and harm me. If The Portland Mercury deletes my protest as spam, then they'll need to delete the comments that have invaded my privacy as that is spam as well.

This post is now in the top five of Google searches for "Mary Volm." It's #1 for "mary volm city council."
If anyone other than Jasun Wurster was running her campaign, I'd say that whoever was running her campaign is probably horrified. Wurster probably thinks this is great publicity for his client.
Imagine, though, being a candidate for city council, and this is the first post that comes up when people who don't know anything about you go looking for information. Yipes.

I suspect that zzzzzzz's comment looks like comment spam to Google, (after all, it is just repeating the same words over and over again,) and so this page actually gets a bad score.

if the timestamps are accurate, Matt's previous comment was at 4am. insomnia? or running on London time? alas, at that time, Leeds United were preparing for their match at Huddersfield, which ended in a scoreless draw. probably played on cruise control, given their lead in League One. next season, back to the Championship and preparation for a return to the Premier before too long.
hey Matt, can i be the Merc's cricket correspondent next year? there is a local league, and since my shoulder precludes me playing (alas that you'll not see my off-seamer) my in-depth knowledge of Somerset County in the early 70s should suffice for credentials. man, that Botham & Richards pairing was amazing.

Remember that Google also scores more highly for inbound links. Thus, for the sake of search engine accuracy, it is important that whenever using the term "Mary Volm" elsewhere that one should link back to this page. That should help broaden people's understanding of the events which have unfolded.

"Pass it on."
Pass what on? Isn't someone posting your last name on a different web site than where you originally posted it what set off your spam tantrum in the firstplace?
"I never consented to my last name being posted against my will"
Can a person truly consent to their last name being posted against their will? That's deep.
I suggest going back to Marylhurst for some remedial courses. I suspect you didn't get everything you were expecting out of the Catholic School experience.

I imagine that the Portland Mercury didn't post any sensational blog story about a woman who is only a voter. I also imagine that repeatedly mentioning that lurid details lurk within this thread is just going to make people more curious about it.

As Boo Boo wiped away the remaining globs of Crisco, he reflected on the events which transpired the previous evening. Was it virtual rape (the webcam was still clean), was it all in his mind, or was it something someone else posted? Yogi was nowhere to be found, but the picinic basket splinters could still be felt in the most tender of tissues. Boo Boo picked up his T-shirt off the floor, which had been unceremoniously and rapidly discarded in the early stages of the frantic events the night before. "Steamworks: Add a sling for $7", said the shirt. "Maybe I should've worn something different to the club", thought Boo Boo.

This is my protest for the virtual raping of my privacy my with my last name (December 10, 2009 @ 8:16am) and six web links posted by Graham (he surfed it off the Internet and posted it on this blog) without my consent which included an obituary of my Grand Aunt listing all my family members (December 10, 2009 @ 2:32pm). I will not stop my protest until The Portland Mercury deletes all the comments that invaded my privacy. I never consented to my last name being posted against my will on this blog site.

Boo Boo decided to go have a look around. He put his codpiece thong back on, and opened the door. The ambiance was as expected, hot and humid, with the distant thumping of trance music, but not a soul to be seen. The hallway was littered with towels. "Towels!", thought Boo Boo, "If I'm going to stay here another round, I'm going to have to get more towels. And where is Yogi?".
Boo Boo made his way through the door-lined corridor, past the locker room, and to the front desk. It was unstaffed, but there was a stack of fresh towels still laid out from the night before. Boo Boo picked up a towel, and brought it to his snout to take a whiff. "Poppers! Even the clean towels in this place reek of poppers!" For Boo Boo, poppers were headache-inducing, he couldn't stand him, but somewhere deep in his subconscious it was understood what the scent represented: The promise of more to come.

Janelle is drumming up support for how badly abused she has been on this thread over on her FB wall:
" Be careful if you ever blog anywhere. There are malicious people out there. If you ever blog use a nickname/alias. I've seen a new level of evil I have never experienced before."
which spurred Mary's comment about the Merc.

Please substitute "pleasing" for "amazing" in my last comment.
You know what this thread reminds me of? Our second longest thread this year!
Remember when the tea baggers gathered outside The O's offices, demanding greater amounts of representation from the main-stream media they so loudly hate and distrust? Well, there was the picture there, and there was a full-face shot of a woman who may or may not have been part of the protest.
...And after some not-especially-nice discussion of her facial features (which I'm gonna take responsibility for), she quickly decided that she didn't want her face a) in the papers and/or b) linked to the teabaggers.
This led to a very similar discussion ala the one we're sort of having here: i.e. being in public means a de facto agreement to not use any Right To Privacy arguments if things don't go the way you wanted them to.
For instance, the lady in the photo could very easily have hopped on the blog here and said, "Actually I was just walking down the street. I'm honestly not a teabagger, and I really hope that the photo doesn't give that impression." Or: "Hey fuck you Rich Bachelor for calling me 'pig faced' on the internet. Here's hoping you get cancerfireaids, y'shitmonger."
But she didn't. She acted like it's everybody else's job to do exactly what she wants when things get a little too...Honest? Not sure what the right word there is. Plenty of us noted the paradoxical nature of a protest staged by people who wanted more media exposure who then got it, and found themselves looking like idiots, which they then blamed on the biased nature of the media.
So that brings us to Janelle if-that-really-is-your-real-name. I went back over my initial comments to her and found that I started this by saying that picture of Mary Volm did her no favors (it came down pretty quick, I noticed), but didn't opine any further about the qualifications or views of Mary Volm because I had no idea who Mary Volm was. Still don't. I've kind of gone out of my way to Not Check, these last FOUR FUCKING DAYS.
Oddly, the thing that seems to have set Janelle off was the suggestion that her favorite candidate seemed to be surrounded by a lot of the usual suspects, as far as borderline cranks go. I concur. A verrry lazy check of those who call her a friend reads like a list of whiny Oregon conservatives. So while it would be premature to say that Mary Volm is herself a conservative, her friends openly and proudly describe themselves in such a manner, and there's nothing wrong with that, of course.
And then the rest was a textbook, stations-of-the-cross trip down psychotic breakdown lane, leading to that final stage where infinite regress and endless repetition becomes the final refuge of whatsername there. She shoulda just walked away.
Now: we near 500 comments, largely fueled by her seeming attempts to drive up the count singlehanded. Maybe she is someone's meta-joke. But I don't think so.

This led to a very similar discussion ala the one we're sort of having here: i.e. being in public means a de facto agreement to not use any Right To Privacy arguments if things don't go the way you wanted them to.
For instance, the lady in the photo could very easily have hopped on the blog here and said, "Actually I was just walking down the street. I'm honestly not a teabagger, and I really hope that the photo doesn't give that impression." Or: "Hey fuck you Rich Bachelor for calling me 'pig faced' on the internet. Here's hoping you get cancerfireaids, y'shitmonger."
But she didn't. She acted like it's everybody else's job to do exactly what she wants when things get a little too...Honest? Not sure what the right word there is. Plenty of us noted the paradoxical nature of a protest staged by people who wanted more media exposure who then got it, and found themselves looking like idiots, which they then blamed on the biased nature of the media.
So that brings us to Janelle if-that-really-is-your-real-name. I went back over my initial comments to her and found that I started this by saying that picture of Mary Volm did her no favors (it came down pretty quick, I noticed), but didn't opine any further about the qualifications or views of Mary Volm because I had no idea who Mary Volm was. Still don't. I've kind of gone out of my way to Not Check, these last FOUR FUCKING DAYS.
Oddly, the thing that seems to have set Janelle off was the suggestion that her favorite candidate seemed to be surrounded by a lot of the usual suspects, as far as borderline cranks go. I concur. A verrry lazy check of those who call her a friend reads like a list of whiny Oregon conservatives. So while it would be premature to say that Mary Volm is herself a conservative, her friends openly and proudly describe themselves in such a manner, and there's nothing wrong with that, of course.
And then the rest was a textbook, stations-of-the-cross trip down psychotic breakdown lane, leading to that final stage where infinite regress and endless repetition becomes the final refuge of whatsername there. She shoulda just walked away.
Now: we near 500 comments, largely fueled by her seeming attempts to drive up the count singlehanded. Maybe she is someone's meta-joke. But I don't think so.

Tell The Portland Mercury that a male blogger with the user profile ID of "Graham" posted the full name (December 10, 2009 @ 8:16am) and six Internet links (December 10, 2009 @ 2:32pm, one that was an obituary) without the permission of the woman blogger with a user profiler once named “Janelle” from December 8-10, 2009, name now switched to “zzzzzzz” as of December 10, 2009 due to her unwanted privacy invasion of privacy on this blog:” BREAKING: Mary Volm For City Council? Election 2010/ News Posted by Matt Davis on Tue, Dec 8, 2009 at 10:36 AM” with the web link of http://blogtown.portlandmercury.com/gyroba… (Davis, M., News Editor, The Portland Mercury, 2009, “BREAKING: Mary Volm For City Council? Election 2010/ News, Retrieved December 12, 2009). Tell The Portland Mercury this is off topic and invades that woman’s privacy who in the past has been a victim of rape, menacing and identity left and now has a real personal safety concern with six Internet links (one that is an obituary of her Grand Aunt) and her full name posted in this blog which is supposed to be a topic on Mary Volm. Tell The Portland Mercury to take responsibility of their blog and delete off-topic comments; especially the comments invading that women's privacy.
Tell The Portland Mercury that they need to be responsible for the posts of the Blog that they oversee and to delete all off topic, threatening, and spam comments (the three very options on their site to report comments). She has contacted The Portland Mercury December 10-12, 2009 and they refuse to delete those posts. Thank you for your support.
[The Portland Mercury, you have the power to make things right and delete the posts that invaded my privacy. I've contacted you December 10-12, 2009 and you have still failed to delete the posts that invaded my privacy. You have control of this blog; you should take responsibility for your Blog site. You should be ashamed. My last name and six Internet links were posted against my will by the blogger Graham, and one of the links was an obituary of my Grand Aunt. Where are your journalistic ethics? Where is your accountability for your blog that you oversee?]
This is my protest for the virtual raping of my privacy my with my last name (December 10, 2009 @ 8:16am) and six web links posted by Graham (he surfed it off the Internet and posted it on this blog) without my consent which included an obituary of my Grand Aunt listing all my family members (December 10, 2009 @ 2:32pm). I will not stop my protest until The Portland Mercury deletes all the comments that invaded my privacy. I never consented to my last name being posted against my will on this blog site. As far as I'm concerned, all comments that have invaded my privacy with commenter’s posting my full name and the six web links has provided an open opportunity to spam, steal my identity and harm me. I am a past victim of rape, menacing and identity theft. If The Portland Mercury deletes my protest as spam, then they'll need to delete the comments that have invaded my privacy as that is spam as well. I’m not acquainted with Mary Volm (I am just a public citizen who will vote for her), I am not a politician and I am not a journalist. I want my privacy back from this blog; I didn’t deserve to have my privacy virtually raped.

Imagine, if the Portland Mercury wasn't Yellow Journalism, they would know who Mary Volm's campaign people are, I am not a Mary Volm campaign person, I want my privacy back that Graham stole on this blog.]
