-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Jesus Spammer Charles Carlson Tries On A SLAPP Suit Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2005 22:54:58 -0600 (CST) From: J.A. Terranson <measl@private> To: declan@private Hi Declan, http://www.mfn.org/~measl/pdf/Carlson_complaint.pdf you will find a roughly 30 page rambling "complaint" from the infamous Chuck Carlson (aka "StraitGate Ministries", "WHTT", and scroes of others, I'm sure), attempting to argue that Jesus Spam is constitionally protected speech provided it is compliant with the CANSPAM act, and that people who complain about receiving his unsolicited Spams-For-Jesus are "committing Internet Defamation" by complaining. Chuckie screwed up his first two attempts to serve me in this case, and below you will find my email to him laying out the proper way to get his day in court (assuming he really *wants* a day in court, and not just to be able to claim that he is "suing Pharisees" (he runs the website "Pharisee Watch" keep keep an eye on all of us decadent "Pharisees" you know!). As I am in Missouri, and Chuck is in Arizona, I paid particularly close attention to the failed service I have - and in so doing I noticed something I had never seen before: The Arizona Court requires a defendant to pony up $190.00 just to answer the complaint and avoid a default judgement. It seems to me this is an unconstitutional tax imposed to limit defendant's access to the courts out in Arizona, but then, what does an old Cypherpunk know of laws and taxes and Constitutions??? This may have an interest for your Politech readers. All the best! //Alif -- Yours, J.A.

Terranson <measl@private> To: carlsonwhtt@private Cc: measl@private Subject: Your lawsuit against "Missouri Freenet Corporation' Hi Chuck, As you requested, here is an email to memorialize what we just discussed on the telephone. (1) A young lady was handed a subpoena for "Missouri Freenet Corporation". this subpoena is for the suit you filed recently in Arizona. (2) After reading your complaint I think I understand what you're trying to do: your're trying to sue *me*, personally, for writing an email which made statements you disagreed with. Unfortunately for you: (3) There is no "Missouri Freenet Corporation". There *was* one at one time, a LONG time ago, but it was dissolved *years* ago. Nowadays, there is only the internet domain "MFN.ORG", which is what I think you are referring to as "Missouri Freenet Corporation". (4) Like you, I am eager to participate in this lawsuit. Unfortunately, I cannot respond to the summons on my desk, because it is addressed to a corporation, and not to me - even if such a corporation existed, it would be illegal for me to answer on their behalf (as I'm sure you know). (5) As things stand now, you could, in theory, take a default judgement against "Missouri Freenet Corporation". But that wouldn't do you any good, as there is no such thing. There are no assets, no liabilities, no officers, employees, etc. There is NO "MISSOURI FREENET CORPORATION". There is an old abandoned web page which has not changed in about 9 years (check this out for yourself at archive.org) that is hosted here at mfn.org, but that is not going to help your cause any. (6) If you really want to get your day in court on this issue, you're going to have to sue the person you're actually pissed off at - that would be me. just to make life easy on you, here is all the information you'll need to accomplish this momentus feat: - Change the named defendant from "Missouri Freenet Corporation" to "Alif Terranson, occasionally doing business as "MFN.ORG" or "Missouri FreeNet". - Change the address from whatever you have now to where I live: 6455 Alamo Avenue, Clayton, Missouri, 63105. S - have a new subpoena issue that names me personally, and have it delivered to the above address. If the process server calls me on my cell phone, I will arrange to be there to receive process: (618) 558-5854. If you'll do all that, I'll be pleased as punch to see you in court, where you can battle out your sickness in public. If you don't do this, I will publicize this email far and wide, to show that you are a coward and deliberately avoided naming me personally, so as to avoid losing in a public case which you started. Have a nice day Chuckie. //Alif -- Yours, J.A.
