Posted By: <b>Joe</b><p>Leon,<br /><br />I am a former lawyer, so I thought I would give you my thoughts. It sounds like if you don't have the right guy, the Gilliam family now would have a lot more ammo to sue you for posting their personal information with no due process than you would have for suing Billy. Saying vulgar things about people is cruel, but as long as it didn't cause you substantial monetary harm that you can prove, or threaten you, unfortunately that speech is not illegal. Email me if you want to discuss this further, Joe.

Posted By: <b>Jon Canfield</b><p>Leon - actually you are correct. I only saw the posts from the other day and since I don't know what was said this morning (as it was deleted before I saw it), I really should not say anything at all.<br /><br />That being said, I was only commenting on IIED of requires extreme and outrageous conduct causing the plaintiff severe emotional distress. Pretty high bar...

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Well, Jon, do you have a daughter?

Posted By: <b>McCormick</b><p>Where do you get this nonsense from dan? you sure know how to antagonize someone.<br /><br />Courts in most jurisdictions take a decidedly unfavorable stance towards IIED claims. It is felt that they are generally frivolous claims for non-quantifiable harm, and often are appended to other more substantive claims merely as an afterthought. Meeting the element of conduct that is so outrageous as to be beyond the bounds of civilized society is extremely difficult, and consequently most claims fail.

The stuff this Billy guy said was pretty close to what is quoted above, did you actually see what he wrote? Whoever said this 25 year old was a kid was rediculous, The guy has been an adult for a long time and should know better. As the father of a daughter, I don't know if I would be as forgiving as Leon is being. <br /><br />This guy made his bed, and now he has to sleep in it. I'm just not sure what your beef is here? You seem to be taking anything directed at this sicko somewhat personally.<br />-Rhett

This punk did not just come here once and then go away. He Hijacked somebodys account and said horrible disgusting things about a child. He should be taught a lesson! He's 25 years old! He's not a kid anymore and he needs to learn that threre are real repercussions to the type of behavior he displayed here! If it were my daughter he spoke of, I'd run a white hot icepick up his pee pee hole and then get mad. Not only is he an internet troll but, a very disturbed individual. You can NEVER be to careful when children are brought into the mix. I feel that an admission of guilt and a solemn promise in writing to never come to this board again is a good start followed by a public letter of apology and a promise to seek counseling. Proof of counseling should be provided. Anything less and I have an icepick you can borrow. <br /> <br /> <br />Mr Mcormick has forgotten that he can control his mouse and read only threads pertaining to cards.

Posted By: <b>Joe</b><p>I am not sure where you guys see the connection? The rapper threatened to track down the daughter and even offered a cash reward for information. Saying you had sex with someone is inappropriate but Leon will find when he calls the Reno police department that without an explicit threat like made in the article no investigation will even be launched. Do you want to meet back here this time tomorrow and we will see how far Leon got?

Posted By: <b>John</b><p>No need to skirt the question with sarcasm besides you bringing sarcasm to me is like bringing a knife to a gun fight. <br /><br />I asked a fair question why of all the interesting and even controversial topics on this forum do you pop up out of the blue to tell everyone to relax about vulgar sexual remarks made about someone’s child, and then have the stones to tell us to grow up that a 25yr old is just a kid and he can’t help it let it go. When a 9yr old drops the F-bomb because he heard big brother say it…it’s cute. When a 25yr old man makes the remarks this guy did it becomes not cute and downright reportable IMO clear enough for you genius…<br />

Posted By: <b>Brian McQueen</b><p><br />Funny how every time someone gets in trouble on the board, from Peter Chao, to the present, we always seem to get this sudden "membership spike" here on our humble board. And, almost as humorous, is the fact that all these brand new members just happen to take the side of said troublemaker and appear so set in their convictions too! <br /><br />So what have we got so far? Well, we've got Billy Gilliam, with an Email address of bgilliam83@hotmail.com<br /><br />Then along came a former lawyer named Joe with an email address of bigrebel83@yahoo.com.<br /><br />Couldn't you have at least removed the "83" from your email address? We all know what year you were born at this point. Wow, never ran into a 25 year old FORMER lawyer before. <br /><br />Let's see, who else...oh...SMcormick@gmail.com. Ok, so you finally took the "83" out for the account you created through gmail, terrific.<br /><br />Did I miss any? What, no AOL account?<br /><br />Very amusing. Billy, I like the way you're using all your new aliases to have conversations with each other. That's really neat and creative...<br /><br />Leon, I wish you the best of luck tomorrow.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>It's very unfortunate that this Billy Gilliam, who now appears to be posting under various names, has hijacked the board to such a degree that very little else has been discussed here lately. It makes me think that it is time for Leon to consider updating the software, or perhaps even making it difficult for a stranger to post here so freely (similar to that other board that is more secretive than the Stone Cutters).<br /><br />We are a free chat board that allows anyone to register and log in, and all free forums are subject to this kind of internet terrorism, for lack of a better term. Soon we may get copycat posters, and eventually our whole community will suffer for it.

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>The funniest part is how Gilliam thought that he could convince the board that "Joe" and "McCormick" were just two lurkers who have never posted on the board -- until now when they came out in support of not turning in a hopeful-pedophile to authorities. The 'former lawyer' bit was funny as well as the Wiki cut and paster. But the reverse psychology angle, that Billy was laughing instead of shaking in his boots -- good stuff too. Billy reminds me of one of those WWF wrestlers from the early 70s who, after hitting the good guy over the head with a chair when his back was turned would then be on his knees begging for forgiveness when the good guy turned around and slowly advanced towards the attack. Of course as soon as the good guy hesitated for a second the bad guy threw salt in his eyes.

Posted By: <b>Brian</b><p>Huckleberry (plant)<br />From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia<br />Jump to: navigation, search<br />For other uses, see Huckleberry.<br /> <br />Wild huckleberry in the Mount Hood National Forest. The floral remnants, signifying a false berry, are visible on the apex of the fruit.Huckleberry is a name used in North America for several plants in two closely related genera in the family Ericaceae: Gaylussacia and Vaccinium. The Huckleberry is the state fruit of Idaho.<br /><br />While some Vaccinium species, such as the Red Huckleberry, are always called huckleberries, other species may be called blueberries or huckleberries depending upon local custom. Usually, the distinction between them is that blueberries have numerous tiny seeds, while huckleberries have 10 larger seeds (making them more difficult to eat).<br /><br />Note that there is much confusion in naming of berries in American English. The 'garden huckleberry' (Solanum melanocerasum) is not considered to be a true huckleberry but a member of the nightshade family.<br /><br />The fruit of the various species of plant called huckleberry is generally edible. The berries are small and round, usually less than 5 mm in diameter, and contain 10 relatively large seeds. Berries range in color according to species from bright red, through dark purple, and into the blues. In taste the berries range from tart to sweet, with a flavor similar to that of a blueberry, especially in blue/purple colored varieties. Huckleberries are a favorite of many mammals such as bears and humans.<br /><br /> <br />Bog Huckleberry at Polly's Cove, Nova ScotiaIn the Pacific Northwest of North America, the huckleberry plant can be found in mid-alpine regions, often on the lower slopes of mountains. The plant grows best in damp, acidic soil. Under optimal conditions, huckleberries can be as much as 1.5-2 m (about 5-6.5 feet) high, and usually ripen in mid-to-late summer; later at higher elevations.<br /><br />Huckleberries hold a place in archaic English slang. The tiny size of the berries led to their frequent use as a way of referring to something small, often in an affectionate way. The phrase "a huckleberry over my persimmon" was used to mean "a bit beyond my abilities". "I'm your huckleberry" is a way of saying that one is just the right person for a given job,[1] which was used by the character Doc Holliday in the movie Tombstone. The Huckleberry Railroad is a heritage train located in Flint, Michigan. It ran so slowly that it was said a person could jump off the train, pick huckleberries and jump back on the train with minimum effort. [2]<br />

Posted By: <b>Tyler</b><p>John,<br />Your "dripping with sarcasm" comment about the Xtreme golf, etc. was fabulous. I didn't want to get involved with this mess, so I didn't post. Now that it has died down I will give you full props. NICE!<br />Wonka Rules!

Posted By: <b>Kyle</b><p>Some people just don't get it. Just think of it like this... what words, images, etc. do you find offensive when used inappropriately? <br /><br />Thank you for your understanding, Brandon.<br /><br />-Kyle<br /><br /><br /><br />EDITED last line of first sentence. Added "when used inappropriately".

Posted By: <b>Brandon Brown</b><p>One mans' humor is another mans' hot-button issue. Growing up with a disability, I have been able to overlook abject stupidity of others, who intentionally mean to hurt peoples' feelings. When you are dealing with a society that hasnt been exposed to those sort of things (the type of issues dealt with in that post) it makes people uncomfortable, whereas someone who has been around people with disabilities, and heard all sorts of jokes and whatnot throughout my life, it doesnt phase me anymore. I appologise to those who I offended! NOW LETS GET BACK TO CARDS PEOPLE!!!!<br /><br />Brandon

Posted By: <b>MB3</b><p>To those wondering why i posted my comments let me make it very clear. I do not know anyone from here. I enjoy baseball cards and most of the time i go right to the t-card post board. I have purchased T-206 cards on here and will continue doing so. I was told about this site from a very honest and also high end collector as a alternative to e-bay, his collection would be in the millions dollar wise. The reason for my posts is very simple, i thought this was a baseball card message board and not like every other site where the subject at hand always get pushed aside and then conversations turn into drama such as threats,ridicule,and confrontational situations. I am the type of guy that tries to break up fights not start them. My comments were made only to try and help Leon not let a individual get under his skin. MB3

Posted By: <b>Kyle</b><p>Hi Brandon,<br /><br />I knew there was a deeper meaning to your post, hence my hesitation to post something more blunt and potentially, well rude. I've come to learn not everyone on this board has the worst of intentions, some just need a little kick in the ass to realize what is worth posting, and what isn't. Your willingness to remove the image immediately scores you points in my book. Thank you, much appreciated.<br /><br />Have a great rest of your night, rest of your week and soon to be... your weekend!<br /><br />Regards,<br />-Kyle<br /><br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>MB3</b><p>To John and Shawn. When a person has opened for Marilyn Manson on several occasions they do not have to think they are extreme or hardcore it is just a given, LMFAO because i am quite sure that you two individuals would probably stand at the back of the building near the exit once the first guitar chord was struck.

Posted By: <b>MB3</b><p>I also will state for the record that i never saw Billy's post so i did not know what he said about Leon's daughter or how old she was. I really came onto the main page because i have a baseball photograph that is the only one in the world to exist and was going to post it and try to get some insight and possibly sell it here and just noticed the Leon thread. After seeing how things have gone down over the past two days this place is way to cheesy and self righteous for me. Leon you and Dan might want to get out of the baseball card business and possibly consider a job in law enforcement.

Posted By: <b>MB3</b><p>Dan....the photo is just the beginning. I just recently slabbed 250 t-206 cards and bought another collection that had 640 raw ones of which most will grade between 5 and 7. My goal was to sell them on this site and give the true t-card collector a chance at getting them without having to worry about being schill bidded against. My photo is turn of the century and i have contacted two museums and both were astounded that one survived. The photo also has several famous people in the stands and there photographs are highly sought after because not many survived. I thought that perhaps instead of sending it to Robert Edwards or Mastro that i would try and figure it's worth here because my friend told me this sight had the deepest collectors on the planet. After the drama over the past few days i am going to reconsider and the only reason i am still here is because i have made a few purchases from people and am waiting for the cards to arrive once they do rest assured i am ****ing out of this joint.
