The C3G2 haters and the art of the thread jack.


One of the more unsolvable local mysteries is the rank double standard the C3G2 hater's impose on Commissioner David Madore but completely, and hypocritically, do not extend to themselves.

After months of dealing with the C3G2 hater's efforts to take over his own, personally, facebook page, he made the decision to ban members of that hate site since they/are were completely uninterested in anything concerning Madore except his destruction... and they, themselves, had banned Madore from THEIR site months before Madore reciprocated in kind.

To base a website of hatred on a platform of hypocrisy goes to the heart of the matter: Madore has/had PRECISELY as much of a right to ban any C3G2 hater as they had to ban him.

To the best of my knowledge, no one has suggested that, save for the blatant hypocrisy of their lie of a name, this group lacks any right to ban whoever they want for whatever reason they want, real or imagined.

Yet, oddly, those infesting that site can't seem to wrap it around whatever few remaining brain neurons they may have that Commissioner Madore has the exact, same right to ban any or all of them for whatever reason, real or imagined.

This is a group populated primarily with political opponents of Madore, few if any of whom ever voted for him in the first place... and have I mentioned these people are dedicated to Madore's political destruction?

As a group, those furthest out on the fringe-left exhibit the most militant hatred of Madore in thought, word and deed.  As a result, they made every effort to attack Madore on his own private facebook page, claiming, wrongly and stupidly, that since he would use that page to disseminate information from the county, he had no such right.

Well, never let it be said that these fringe-left nutters don't twist reality into their own self-delusion.

On Mr. Madore's facebook page, these haters would routinely make an effort to "flypaper" him out of hatred, pure and simple.

They would make blatantly false statements on his facebook page designed solely to knock him off message and clog his posts with their hate in an effort to, effectively, shut him down.

To his credit, Madore tried to engage with there people.  He tried to communicate and explain.

But with hatred as their underpinning and hypocrisy as their filter, there never was any "discussion," per say, since these people would never accept anything Madore wrote in any way.

Their own facebook page, again, from which Madore was banned, has a radioactive glow of hatred and hypocrisy in almost every post.

Here is an example of why Madore is right to ban anyone who is a member of the C3G2 hate group.  It's a classic threadjack of the old school soviet style the haters at C3G2 so prefer.

Note that, of course, Commissioner Madore's decision to ban the haters from his page in no way stops any of the haters from using any other way to communicate they may choose: email, text, snail mail, tweet... you name it.  But in their twisted hatred, these clowns are acting as if fac ebook were the ONLY way to communicate with Mr. Madore.

It isn't.

And here's an example:

This is a facebook post from Rep. Liz Pike in support of Peter Van Nortwick, county assessor.  Practically the second David Madore posts, the threadjack begins.  For the fringe-leftists, this is a two-fer: it knocks the mesasage of support for Van Nortwick by Rep. Pike off the page, so to speak, while being used as an opportunity to trash Madore... again.  It's long, but the pattern is self-evident.

The posts run the gamut from stupid: "Why did he rip off a slogan that is so commonly used among Seahawks fans and is only referring to their head coach Pete Carroll?"  (Who knows?  Why are you asking that question here?  Why don't you pick up a phone and ask him... or post on HIS facebook page and ask him there?) to the all-too-typical hatred of the fringe-left nutter: "If you can't answer any tough questions, censor the questions, or run away. You just proved my point, Mr. Madore." (File that under: you can never successfully answetr a hater's question since they're not looking for an answer: no matter what answer you giove them, it won't be good enough... so don't answer them at all, given the waste of time they represent.)

    Here's why I'm supporting Peter Van Nortwick for re-election as our County Assessor and why I'm hosting a fundraiser for him at my farm this evening. I hope you can join us. It begins at 5pm at Shangri-La Farm in Camas, 26300 NE Third Street. We have lots of parking at the farm. Look for all the campaign signs out front.

    Pike Supports VanNortwork:

    As the only stated Republican in the race, Assessor Pete has reduced staffing 15% and reduced spending 21% in the Assessor's office from 2009 to 2013, (during his term of office).

    Assessor Pete got the Assessor's office back on time and outside organizations have held it up as a model of government efficiency!

    Assessor Pete is endorsed by fellow elected Republicans including Greg Kimsey, Scott Weber, David Madore, Tom Mielke, Don Benton, Paul Harris, Brandon Vick, legislative candidate Lynda Wilson, GOP Chairman Kenny Smith and me, State Rep. Liz Pike!

    Assessor Pete walks the talk. During the Governor and Presidential races of 2012, he was out actively working for Republicans and he's also an elected Republican PCO. Voters should reward a job well done with re-election. While I have nothing against his upstanding civic-minded opponent who I support 100% as a Ridgefield City Council member, there is no compelling reason to remove Assessor Pete! See More

I was not saying Republican didn't support the Bill of Rights, l was saying that maybe they need to express it more and that's all.

Terry Whipps Conner Oh, brother. Randy, the initial post was relating to Liz Pike's support of Peter Van Nortwick. Where you picked up my association with pro-Charter most likely came from my page, I'm guessing? I hope so! Anyway, as an obviously intelligent man, with passion for community betterment, take a look at the full charter. Look at both websites. Ask me, or anyone involved in the yes or no campaign, any questions you might have. Unlike Commissioner Madore, I won't delete your comments or ban you for disagreeing with me. No matter what, it's obvious you'll make wise choices. You certainly don't need anyone to influence you, as Commissioner Madore is attempting to do. He's trying the fear tactic, which is silly. Feel free to message me for information, Randy, and/or links to CharterYES.

BTW, sorry to have caused you to feel I misunderstood your intention. I gotcha now.

David Madore Terry Whipps Conner, as well documented on my September 16 and September 12 posts at https://www.facebook.com/DavidMadorePublic, members of hate groups including C3G2, have a Constitutional right to post their malicious character attacks on their sites, but they are not welcome to post on other citizens' Facebook pages against the will of the owners.

The nonsense of being banned for expressing dissent is as fallacious as a bully being sent home from school for attacking a fellow student and then claiming that they were only respectfully expressing dissent. It is nonsense.

Compelling arguments that focus on issues and solutions are not only welcome, they are essential. But bullying and hatred are not helpful expressions of dissent.

You banned me in June, for asking where Betty Sue Morris' posts went, Commissioner. Is that bullying or hateful?

Using fear tactics or colored truths to "win" a point is exactly backwards. You are an extremely intelligent, skilled communicator, sir. Please open your mind more to other intelligent, reasonable communicators. And for heaven's sake, stop with the scare tactics. You insult the sharp folks who perhaps just need informational direction, and belittle yourself in the process.

Wouldn’t it be far better for the people to be self-governing and plan our own future and employ a staff to get us there?

David Madore Randy Williams, there is a huge gap between the values that you shared about limited, accountable, affordable government of the people, by the people, for the people and the charter that violates those values. Some of your assumptions are inaccurate. Here are a few specifics:

If the proposed charter passes, the door will be permanently closed to repealing it. That is written into the charter. It is a one way ticket. The charter also prohibits the people from amending the charter for at least five years after adoption. The people will be stuck on a bus without the ability to amend it for at least five years.

The elected people don’t choose the charter. The citizens adopt it or reject it "as is" in a one-time vote this November.

Many people are tired of big government ignoring the will of the people in many areas. The charter would change our present citizen-centric form of county government into an unelected bureaucracy with part time councilmembers like C-Tran. If you like how C-Tran is working, you should love the Charter.

Are you aware of any policy, project, or decision by present Clark County Commissioners that have in any way violated the majority will of the people?

Our present county government keeps the power where it belongs, in the hands of the people. The charter would distance the government from the people by erecting a wall of separation between their elected citizen representatives and the government that is supposed to serve them.

Do you agree that these facts are not consistent with the values that you shared?

One example of the malicious purpose of the hate site is provided by one of the C2G2 founders and administrators beginning in the June 30 comments to Robert Dean here:

My commitment to support community and oppose the C3G2 malice followed that comment. I stand by that commitment to keep such ill will off from my Facebook pages. We have problems to solve and community goodwill to build.

The people spoke - C-Tran - Let us vote! 54,548 people in a landslide election last November directed their representatives to get authorization from the voters before C-Tran approves any major multi-million dollar High Capacity Transit project for Light Rail or Bus Rapid Transit. 62.8% of the voters county-wide said No to C-Tran spending millions in local taxes without a vote. In addition to Vancouver, every small city confirmed that they want a vote on BRT before C-Tran approves it: Battle Ground: 70.8% to 29.2% Camas: 58.2% to 41.8% La Center: 67.1% to 32.9% Ridgefield: 65.6% to 34.4% Washougal: 65.5% to 34.5% Yacolt: 81.2% to 18.8% C-Tran now wants to spend millions up front and millions more each year in local taxes on a Bus Rapid Transit Project without a vote of the people.

Randy Williams It's all about government bureaucrats wanting to keep their jobs but, you guys need to be honest and stop calling everything you disagree with " hate speech. "

Jamie Hymas Warren Kenny Smith, I am respectfully writing on a public servant's facebook page. I am no stalker. When people are banned, or not welcome to discuss issues on public sites, it is called censorship. My statement and questions are not disrespectful or hateful. Mr. Madore has not answered my question now, nor did he give me respect or transparency when he banned my for disagreeing with him. So, please, try to discuss issues, and quit with the slurs.

David Madore Jamie Hymas Warren, it appears that C3G2 members are speaking without listening. So I repeat here what was posted earlier. Those that subscribe to hate groups and excuse such malice are not welcome to post on my page regardless of the content. Live and let live. Respect private property. Respect the freedom of others to stay positive and wholesome.

Want to be my welcome guest? Don’t subscribe to hate, ill will, or malice. Choose good will and focus on issues and solutions with decency, civility, and respect. Our community will be healthier and more united.

Jamie Hymas Warren Mr. Madore, it appears that you are not listening to me. I asked what comment I made on your facebook page that was so disrespectful that you banned me. You hadn't banned the C3G2 members yet, so...what WAS the reason, except maybe disagreeing with you? I think banning people that disagree, even when they are civil, is malicious and hateful.

Dylan Normington David you banned me months ago, way before you banned people associated with G3C2. So what gives? Please explain to Jaime and I why you censored us.

Roy Valo I was banned for pointing out when David Madore was being inaccurate (in a civil manner) before C3G2 even existed. I can't believe we have such a childish individual as a County Commissioner.

But 2016 will be here sooner than you think. You won't even be able to buy your seat this time. ...See More

David Madore This thread confirms the good sense of upholding minimum standards of civility and decency and the necessity to reject such negativity. I am thankful for the opportunity to solve problems and to help make our community a better, healthier, more positiv...See More

Jamie Hymas Warren If you can't answer any tough questions, censor the questions, or run away. You just proved my point, Mr. Madore.

@Dylan Normington, I, of course, am not lying: long before there was a REQUIREMENT to "apply for membership" (Though one wonders why one has to "apply" to be a part of this group given the lie of a name and all,) Madore, myself and Waters were, in fact, banned.

Many there never "applied": they were grandfathered when the silencing order, the control order came down.

You really need to read the meeting notes more closely: From the June 14th Meeting

"Reminder that Madore, Kelly Hinton, Lew Waters and others read the C3G2 page –everything is public. We do restrict who can post to keep things sane (only C3G2 members can post membership requests are screened)."

Screened? Screened for what?

Screened for opposing viewpoints. Screened for anything positive to say about Madore. Screened for those who don't share in the neo-communist group think.

Now, I really don't care that you don't see this as being banned. But the rest of the world does.

So, when it comes to "lying?"

Perhaps you should take your own advice? Self delusion of the C3G2 hater notwithstanding?

As you can see, it didn't take the haters long to take over this thread and turn it into a hatefest that had nothing to do with the post itself.

With the haters, it's not about "good governance."  It's about lies, distortions, and attacks.

And man, do they hate when I call them out, or what?
