Some psycho trolls are using psychological intimidation on Digg to undermine this effort! How weird, internet thugs? Here is an excerpt:
Cattle Rustler:
"Keep in mind the fact that you cannot post blatant ron paul stuff here anymore is *because* of those posters... you guys have overhyped your man and consequentially you cannot get even legitimate stuff posted here. My advice to you is, unless your man is out of the race, wins a state, or is hit by a cement truck, leave us alone. If you want to win this race, be nice to the internet and we'll listen. If you want to piss us all off, keep up your spam campaign."
Digg Poster Response:
"Thanks for the information. I just want to assure you that I did NOT post that link you posted here over at ronpaulforums.com. I'm not even a member of that site. I am however a member of daillypaul.com which is where I learned in the wee hours this morning about this video, and I thought it was great so I posted it here. I cannot be held accountable for others linking to my Digg post. I was under the impression that this is exactly what the Internet and Digg were actually created for... Sharing information."
Creepy, huh? Seems abnormal. So, what, the heck, these guys are the self-appointed policemen of the internet? If someone makes more than 1 post about something they get their shop busted up or what? Odd. I know I missed something. Any ideas on what or who Cattleman & ilk are? Is this common?

Note: I am goretti and I originally posted the link to Digg here at RonPaulForums. I was not sure which forum to place it in as I am relatively new to this forum. I added information as new links were added. My sole purpose was to share information with you. This fundraising idea, unfortunately, was not mine. I wish it had been. I think it is a wonderful idea worthy of consideration and that is why I wanted to share it with you. Is it considered "spamming" to post information? Are there rules I am not aware of? I did post three links and made comments to other posts. You are welcome to consolidate the links (which I would do if I knew how). You can even delete my account if I did something wrong. I think it is probably just someone trying to intimidate us, "Cattle Rustler" is obviously no friend of the Ron Paul Campaign. My goal is to help Ron Paul raise money and show appreciation for his loyalty to his family and country. And if this is the only thing I accomplish with all of this struggle, it will be worth it. Thank you. I would love to hear your comments.
