River Valley Voices

It's the new, private JSN propaganda blog.

Oh, lol, I thought you were starting your own club...

I have an idea. let's all try to join! guess how many of us will get in?

I thought it was a choir group. Maybe Mark is the conductor?

Lol, she has TRR, LR, TRRR, RVV, what's next?

I thought it was River Valley Vices.

I wonder if they need a soprano

how is her new "forum" any different than her past one. It asks for your dog's dna sample. she is simply paranoid, all that " protect" crap is so tiresome.

that will go over big when all her members start getting spam and telemarketing calls...

does anyone know of any other " forum" that has those ridiculous requirements? (oh,

From TRR:
"We would love to make the site open to the public as opposed to a members only site but we are afraid that if someone presents their viewpoint, they may get attacked on other forums or personally."

Gee, does she mean like the way she attacks the RFD, the RPD, the Public Works, the volunteer video-people, ex-selectmen, Black Mountain, the Catholic school board, ex-town managers, park and rec personnel, town employees, etc.? (I apologize for the many I'm sure I left out.)

From TRR:
"The Administrators are going to protect the members at all costs because this is America and we all have a right to our opinions and beliefs without being attacked for it."

Unless you disagree with her. Then she is free and willing to publish your "private and anonymous" information all over the internet.

From TRR:
"If you are interested in joining us, we welcome you with open arms."

How open are those arms when they're holding a rifle?

From TRR:
"Therefore, River Valley Voices was created to be an all inclusive site that is moderated to prevent any negative posting, trolling by people who wanted to start trouble, and attacks on members of the forum or members of the community."

Yeah.....see above postings.

Coincidence? Riding on coat tails? Or something else?
