Assuming you are a real person, and assuming it was you who found the quote below from Roosevelt, I would love to know the source of the quote, because it is such a chilling indictment of a widely loved (i.e. misunderstood!) politician. I would like to include the quote in one of my future articles for Wired magazine or Internet > Underground.

I'm not entirely sure that your address is genuine because it was quoted in a message from Dimitri Vulis, who is not entirely reliable.

"When compared with the suppression of anarchy every other question sinks into insignificance. The anarchist is the enemy of humanity, the enemy of all mankind, and his is a deeper degree of criminality than any other. No immigrant is allowed to come to our shores if he is an anarchist; and no paper published here or abroad should be permitted circulation in this country if it propagates anarchist opinions." - President Theodore Roosevelt

Okay, I will help you in your research this time because even though you approach me with baseless suspicion about myself and the defamation of Dr. Dimitri Vulis whom I have found to be a very reliable source of information, for you do appear to exhibit a genuine concern about the quote attributed to Theodore Roosevelt. I believe that I read the quote most recently on a page at a site called "Anarchy for Anybody". The page has the address: http://pubweb.acns.nwu.edu:80/~dtn307/species.html I will be interested in reading what you decide to write on the subject, and am mildly curious about what sort of articles have already been published by one who begins a project with not much more than personal prejudice.

You can find a lot of Charles Platt's drivel on alt.torture, where he airs his perverse sexual fantasies. He's also earned a reputation of a crook on sci.cryonics. Be warned that Platt is a pathological liar and a racist. --- Dr.Dimitri Vulis KOTM Brighton Beach Boardwalk BBS, Forest Hills, N.Y.: +1-718-261-2013, 14.4Kbps
