because they accomplished the job they were on the forums to do in the first place......and that was to stop all the 3abn talk........job accomplished.......nice scare tactic.....threats of subpeanos and courts.................. should have added this to the poll........
One has to recognize that this new approach to suppressing opposition in all its forms by utilizing the threat of litigation in US Courts is not typically an approach that Danny Lee Shelton has used in the first 20 years. In fact, the history would show that Danny Lee Shelton has repeatedly avoided litigation when litigation was clearly indicated in several instances.
The other fact of life is that Danny Lee Shelton does not readily spend his own money on lawyers and wargames. It is reported by several witnesses over the years that Danny has repeatedly alleged that Garwin McNeilus was paying for legal services including but not limited to:
1) Linda vs Danny in the Family Court, division of assets case;
2) The Private Investigators hired by Nicholas Miller to follow Linda Shelton in 2004;
3) Hiring Duffy, et al to file suite against the four people, that became two, known as 3ABN & DLS-vs-Joy & Pickle.
However, a background on Garwin McNeilus would demonstrate that litigation was a modus operandi as part of his conglomerate building operations to punish or destroy opponents and was used at least once in a clear attempt to simply suppress the freedom of the press. Unfortunately, for Garwin McNeilus, the conglomerate building process quite often caught the eye of Attorneys' Generals and would find himself subject to scrutiny. It will invariably happen again.
In summary, the preponderance of the evidence would show that the real pied piper of litigation is, logically, none the less than Garwin McNeilus. If that is the case, that would explain the repeated efforts to impound the case, to have evidence declared privileged and confidential, to refuse to produce evidence and to block third party production of evidence.
Hardly consistent with the Chairmans' repeated claims that the lawsuite was to bring out the truth. If they had the truth on their side, they would produce the truth, there would not be a lawsuite and they would have shown the world all the delicious details to exonerate themselves.
So, when the truth is not on your side, seal and sequester the facts until the other side agrees to a peace settlement and then everything is buried in non-disclosure agreements...but what if they will not settle and actually prepare for trial on the merits? Then try to use the rules of evidence to prevent the evidence from coming into the record and just maybe you can fool enough jurors into believing the fable...but that relies upon the defendants being severely handicapped, as in virtual idiots...and who knows, maybe, just maybe, we are!!! After all, we can only rely upon the leadings of our Lord God...but we will place our Faith exactly there and know that Truth and Justice will prevail, in time. Even against the mighty McNeilus.
The Lord sets up Kings and takes them down and we must be assured he will do the same of SDA powerbrokers!!! We are simply too close to the end of time for them to have any relevance to a church where the Lord will Manifest His power in the church. He needs neither their power nor their money and unless they repent, they, like most Laodiceans, will be spewed out of His mouth. And primitive Godliness will once more reign supreme!!!
Praise the Lord,
