HELP! Freeper Problem!
Hi, Folks. I was surfing the idiots over at The Bad Site, and found this: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1240066/posts

Apparently a Vietnam era Vet sent a letter to the local editor, and these folks didn't like it, so one of them wrote this:

Info on Dennis M. Hospodar:

Call him up and ask him what he's talking about. I'm pretty sure thats the right guy as he's only about 8 miles out of Pottstown.

Any brilliant suggestions on what can be done about this? Aren't there laws or something? HELP!!!

1. I think the only thing you can do is give the vet a head's up.
If it's out in the public domain, they can make all the death threats they want. They tend to be chickenshits, so they won't actually do anything.

Granted they are not brave enough to come face to face, oh how I wish they would, but please little freeper children come give me a whirl... Please.....

3. Definitely call the Vet yourself and give him the heads up...
That his home address and phone number are posted on the website and they are encouraging people to call and harass him. That way, he can alert the police.

BTW, I live not too far from Pottstown and my Dad is a Vietnam vet who writes a LttE a lot. We've gotten three death threats in the mail, so please do call this guy and let him know. But also thank him for his service and also being brave enough to express his opinions.
