Hi! I'm only twelve years old!

Hi. I'm only twelve, but I'm a real dork, and nobody will talk to me in the chat rooms. I was watching 20/20 tonight about sexual predators on the internet and they had some really cool tips about how to prey on young children. {If only one child is raped and murdered by sexual predators who learn how to use the internet effectively, it will be worth the time and trouble for those producing the show.} Anyway, I have a question for you. Would I get more people talking to me on the chat lines if I say that I am a twelve year old interested in sex, or if I say that I am a sexual predator interested in meeting young boys? I have never talked to a real FBI agent before and I know I would get to meet some if I said I am an old fart who wants to bunghole young boys but they would probably tell my parents, wouldn't they? I bet I could get a lot more people to talk to me if I told them how old I really am and that I want to do dirty stuff with old farts. I bet I could get a lot of free stuff, too. What do you think? I am asking you because my Doctor in Forest Hills says you guys know about that stuff. He's not a real doctor, but he meets me in the park, where I can smoke, so I like him. He says I don't have prostrate cancer. Boy is that a relief! I met him in a chat room. He said, "I'm from the cypherpunks, and I'm here to help you." I found out that his name isn't really John Gilmore, it's some kind of foreign name, I think. When I asked him if he was a "real" doctor, he said, "No, but I have an honorary Doctor of Love degree that was bestowed upon me by the grade four class at the Forest Hills pubic school." (I think he was making a joke. :?) I thought I could get people to talk to me on the cypherpunks list, since you guys are cool, but everyone there thinks I am an asshole, too. I think I am going to change my name from TruthMonger to something else. Do you think that would help? I spell pretty good for a twelve year old, don't I? Thanks, A Twelve Year Old Boy p.s. - What is fist fucking? Phillip Hallam-Baker wants my answer by tommorrow.

Halloween Humor

A Cypherpunk To Be Named Later purchases a new hunting rifle and moves to Alaska to try it out bear hunting. After a few days of hunting, he sees a moderately decent-sized black bear, and with one perfectly placed shot, kills it. Unfortunately, while watching the black bear collapse, he feels a tap on his shoulder; turning around, he sees a large brown bear. "I saw what you just did," says the bear. "You have two choices. Either I maul you to death, or you and I can step behind that rock over there and engage in the sort of activity Vulis usually attributes to Timmy Mayonnaise." Reluctantly, the Cypherpunk accepts the second alternative. Several days later, when the Cypherpunk is sufficiently recovered to sit comfortably, he decides to avenge his honor. After several hours of stalking, he centers the cross hairs of his riflescope on the brown bear's [deleted] and fires. While watching the brown bear die a slow and agonizing death, he feels a tap on the shoulder. Turning around, the Cypherpunk sees an enormous grizzly bear. "I saw what you just did," says the grizzly. "You have two choices. Either I eat you alive, or you and I can step behind that tree over there and I will show you what New York City Police officers really carry batons for." Reluctantly, the Cypherpunk accepts the second alternative. Several weeks later, after the bleeding stops and his toilet schedule returns to normal, the Cypherpunk once again enters the woods, this time seeking the grizzly bear. After searching for several days he finds the grizzly bear and shoots him. While he is cutting off the grizzly's [deleted], he once again feels a tap on the shoulder. Turning around, he sees a gigantic polar bear. The polar bear looks at him and says, "You don't come out here for the hunting, do you?"

The issue isn't whether what they were doing is illegal. The issue isn't whether it would have been justified for you to run over their asses. The issue is government jack-booted thugs walking up, grabbing *non-violent*, *helpless* protesters by the heads and engaging in chemical warfare. I don't agree with the stance of the protesters, and I don't agree with their method of protesting. That does NOT mean that the government is justified in doing the equivelent of beating the shit out of non-violent protesters. Was China justified in running over non-violent protesters with tanks?

A better play would be expensive looking designer firearms. Not only can you use them for collateral, but they allow the use of certain negotiating strategies with muggers - or doctors.

I am a bit confused. A post to the list claimed that the fifteen year old who raped and murdered the eleven year old (both boys) had not met his victim on the internet, as initial media sources indicated, but on an 800 number phone-chat line. I vaguely recall doing a web search to find out the facts for myself and confirming the claim. Now I am watching Sixty Minutes on tv and they keep repeating the mantra, "met on the internet, met on the internet..." Does anyone have the so called real scoop on this? Thank You
