Maybe it's time to give newbies limited posting privileges as discussed numerous times over the last 8 years (that I know of).

That's the way it used to be (for starting new threads, anyway).

Section 19 may contain evidence of Freeperhood by the suspect. He apparently wrote:

"Rosenberg's = Liberal Journalist's = Benedict Arnold's = Judas's".

Since being at FR I have noticed that many Freepers use the singular possessive incorrectly, when they are just trying to indicate a simple plural form. HMMMMMM.....

Unfortunately, that is a situation that is EPIDEMIC everywhere today. I'm not sure why, but I guess they don't teach proper use of apostrophes any more.

"Rosenberg's = Liberal Journalist's = Benedict Arnold's = Judas's".

Was that post here on FR? I think remember that post exactly. I don't remember the topic or subject of the thread, but I remember that post and I was thinking to myself something like, "what an idiotic comment!"

The FBI said agents observed Castagana dropping envelopes into a mailbox in Woodland Hills on Thursday.

So, He must have been under surveillance.

Seems he must have done something prior to this incident to warrant the FBI's interest.

I can't link to the affidavit from work, Radar is classified as an "Entertainment" site and I can't get there.

Does the affidavit say where that phrase was written? Or is it just identified as one of the guys writings?

According to the affadavit, it was typewritten on a piece of brown paper in the powder-filled envelope sent to Keith Olbermann.

Maybe I just remember reading about that when I read about that story...I've been feeling quite scatterbrained lately. Lots going on at work and home.

It is too difficult to correct negative text on the Wikipedia article without all the time in the world to defend your edits.

For a few moments I didn't know what you meant. I thought you meant my edits. I personally haven't edited anything about FR at the Wikipedia site. I now see that you mean, whenever anybody edits an article or entry, they usually have to have a source or citation to back up their claim. And, yes, it certainly would take a lot of time and energy to correct every inaccuracy about FR on the site, as well as to put up positive points. I hope there are some people here with the time and energy to do that.

There is more convincing evidence that shows up in The DU thread - e.g. here is a letter to the editor from "Chad Castagana" which shows up in it's entirety from "Marc Costanzo" as a FR posting here.

That said, there are crazy people of all persuasions - just because this one has been known to post here doesn't mean the average freeper would condone his actions.

Amazing how much time the DUmmies and Kos spend on this website!

They can't hold a candle to the obsessed clowns at CP, who do nothing but focus on FR. "Get a life" comes to mind...

Wow--thanks for the ping. I had heard the news the other day that white powder was sent to a few individuals.

The guy turned out to be really creepy. And he also posted here as 'Costigan' according to Daily Kos

...His posts are still here under that nic too, but banned. Note the space that always occurs before the punctuation at the end of most of his sentences.

Never heard of 'radar', but there it is.
