2821:, but it must be done properly. Ballenger was convicted of molesting 1 girl, not 3 or 4. The other girls that testified that they were molested did so during a hearing and not a trial as Arbustoo wrote. Also, it is important to note Hyles opinion of the case against Ballenger -- mainly that he always believed he was wrongly convicted. Arbustoo's original edits here made it look like Hyles not only knew that Ballenger was molesting children, but that he supported the molestations as a matter of doctrine. We must surely include the information about the Ballenger trial, but you cannot distort the truth by making it seem worse than it really is. Ballenger was convicted of molesting 1 girl, not 4. The other girls that testified did so during a sentencing hearing, not at a trial before Ballenger's peers. And Hyles' viewpoint about the case is highly relevant and should be included, since the entire point of Arbustoo's edits is to make it seem like Hyles spoke indifferently about molestation, when nothing is further from the truth. Arbustoo is sacrificing the truth in his nearly single-handed mission to defame Hyles. 3242:-- FYI, even though it is irrelevant whether Arbustoo has heard of such a thing or not. There exists a history of many thousands of years of churches banning disabled people, because the bible specifically says in Leviticus 21:17-23: "Whosoever ... hath any blemish, let him not approach to offer the bread of his God. For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous, Or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded, Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken; No man that hath a blemish of the seed of Aaron the priest shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the LORD made by fire: he hath a blemish; he shall not come nigh to offer the bread of his God. ... Only he shall not go in unto the vail, nor come nigh unto the altar, because he hath a blemish; that he profane not my sanctuaries." Now I believe that most Christian churches teach that the book of 666:
feeling that the page has been hijacked by those with a grudge against this man. Also, you are in effect trying to get readers to come to a conclusion that Hyles is guilty of all these charges, simply because someone accused him and those accusations were published in the press. Yes, I'd say a lot of people who supported Jack Hyles have a problem with your efforts to discredit him and his ministry and a lot of people dispute the facts as you present them here, hence, the disputed tag. Try writing your controvery sections in a NPV, adjust the sheer amount of data downward to reflect a more reasoned presentation when compared to the other data here (or increase the other data here to compensate for the large amount of controvery data, and don't try to lead readers into false conclusions based upon such juvanile reasoning as "the press quoted the accusations, therefore it must be true". --Teeja 01:53, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

such distateful events, how does an editor compare the whole of the thing to the distateful action and write an article about the whole darned thing? In this article we have (about) 10 people who have engaged in or had forced on them or were associated in some manner with distateful actions, actions somehow associated with the First Babtist Church. Ok, (about) 10 people. But even it is (about) 100 people, I would say, compare that quantity of persons with the quantity of persons who are enjoying and actively engaged in, successfully enganged in the group's activities. What is that, maybe 10,000? Then look at this ratio, 10/10,000 (or whatever ratio works out to be). And let the article reflect that ratio, you know? 10,000 lines about what the church generally does and 10 lines about the distasteful actions associated with the church. The ratio, not the absolute numbers, you see?

You can't say "Ballenger molested 4 girls", but you can say, "Ballenger was convicted of molesting 1 girl and later, 3 other girls testified during his sentencing hearing that they were also abused by him in the past." And in each of the cases you mention you must also present the full story including Hyles' opinion of the matter. It is highly relevant to this story that Hyles believed that Ballenger was innocent of the crimes and that he was wrongly convicted. That information must be in the article too. Otherwise you are mistakenly leaving the impression that Hyles knew that Ballenger was molesting children and let him continue doing so because he approved of such behaviour. This is clearly a false impression, but it is the exact impression that Arbustoo leaves when he discusses the issue.
3206:. First of all, what was cited was that a blind man alleged that he was banned from the church -- there is no evidence that he was actually banned -- nor is there any indication about why he was banned. First Baptist Church of Hammond has a special mission devoted to helping and caring for the blind, deaf, and handicapped. It is absurd to suggest that they have a policy to ban blind people when there is only one person that has ever made that claim (over 20 years ago). The claim was not ever verified by any other sources and it wasn't repeated by any other sources. It is not appropriate for an encyclopedia article about FBCH to include every last mention of the church that has ever appeared in any newspaper article. This is not what encyclopedias do. 853:
against this church and it's ministries, simply because it's fundamentalist Christian beliefs don't fit into your world view. All anyone needs to do is check out Arbustoo's editing history to confirm that. Of course, he'll reply with a lot of arm waving himself, I'm sure. Arbustoo posts a bunch of unverified, unsourced, or poorly-sourced data against the church and college and gets a few of his editor and admin buddies to back him up, who now say that it's somehow the church supporters who must constantly be on guard against his 24/7 misinformation spree and if they don't spend hours and hours and hours correcting Arbustoo's junk, (which only gets reinstated anyway), they deserve what they get. That sir, is not fair. --

consistently made better through the application of guidelines and policies. You have demonstrated that when left to yourself, you would have the Hyles article be 80% criticism of Hyles or more based on the comments of a couple of malcontents, when the man ran a 50 year ministry and he was loved by tens of thousands of followers. I am willing to leave in edits describing the "controversy" around Hyles, but they must be in proportion to the amount of credibility that they deserve. Since not a single professional researcher or journalist has ever accused Hyles of any misdeeds, let alone any crimes, it is inappropriate for an article about Hyles to be entirely consumed with these tabloid claims.
952:
reputation. Of more weight is the word of Robert Sumner, a man with whom I have had direct, though brief, communication. I have never attended Pastor Sumner's church, or sat under his preaching, but I have corresponded with him via mail and a Web forum. From what I know of him, he is an honest man, but I simply don't know either him or Hyles well enough to decide who is more reputable. The article mentions court cases brought against Hyles, but it does not state the deposition of those cases. As far as I know, no one was able to convince a jury that Jack Hyles was responsible for all these things of which he is accused.
377: 2869:
hearing. The girls claims were only used by the judge to decide on the sentence that Ballenger should get. He did not rule on the truthfullness of the girl's statements. And indeed, if the judge truly believed that Ballenger was a serial molester that had molested 4 or more girls, it seems unconscionable that he would have sentenced Ballenger to only 4 years, don't you think? Also, if the other 3 girls molestation claims had merit, why wasn't Ballenger charged with molestating them? Wouldn't an additional 3 convictions put him away for even longer?

especially if you MENTION the individual ministries on the wiki. How can you not see that? The fact is that it's a link to an OFFICIAL church web site, which is not only allowable on Knowledge (XXG), it should be almost standard that if you're going to mention a church ministry on a wiki, and that ministry has an OFFICIAL web site, you should include a link to that OFFICIAL web site in the interest of providing information to the readers. It adds no more text - just a link to those who want to check out the OFFICIAL web site. --
3305:, not argue the points of the debate and the controversial actions, but to frame the debate from an outside point of view. The principle of proportional representation in this article would be not so much to give 10,000 lines of glowing praise and 10 lines of condemnation, but to give an appropriately representative section of explanation or the church's ideas, and a similarly-representative section of criticism, with regards to the critics and advocates, as opposed to the members and criticized members. -- 119: 92: 809:
nothing can be done to stop him from using the Jack Hyles, First Baptist Church and Hyles-Anderson College and related wikis as a forum for his grievances. I'm done editing this wiki. It's all yours. In the long run, reasonable readers will see right through this kind of one-sided article, anyway. Nice try at keeping the "community spirit" and "cooperative efforts" of Knowledge (XXG). That's nothing but a joke, it seems, at least on these entries. Good luck and happy editing. --
222: 944:
Sunday School students? A newspaper editor called Hyles directly and accused him of cruelty to animals. Pastor Hyles replied that he had done even worse. The editor asked what he had done. Hyles replied, "I ate their mother!" Something similar happened when the Sunday School gave away guppies (small fish) to the Sunday School students. The newspaper was up in arms about the little fishes flopping around in the dwindling puddles in the parking lot.

controversies regard the career of Jack Hyles, it is odd that little else is said about a church that is more than 100 years old. It is all the more odd, considering that I never heard of any of these allegations until 1988. All those years that I heard of Jack Hyles, and heard his detractors, but no one brought these kind of charges into the public until then. They sound so out of character for him.
234: 61: 1991:. Clearly, this user either didn't really believe not having the station's name was important or has failed to pay attention to what is being added. If its the former, this action demonstrates a user trying to white wash DOCUMENTED criticism or if it's the latter it demonstrates a user with a strong POV who cares little for the quality content. Vivaldi's merge vote is in bad faith either way. 311: 3211:
that claim in an encyclopedia article about the church. This blind guy is not a notable person. His unproven claim was not repeated by any other person. No other source has ever mentioned in the last 50 years that FCBH has a practice of discrimination against the blind. This tiny blurb in a newspaper 20 years ago is not worthy to be included in an encyclopedia article.
32: 4571:
repudiation of Schaap's teachings. If you have PROOF that they have repudiated ANY of Schaap's teachings, please provide a link here to the official church websites statement that would indicate such a claim. Short of that, you have no evidence to back up your fake assertions, and your repeated attempts to blank out the "Teachings" section will be rejected. --
3156:
blind people in general are not welcome at FBCH, nor is it clear why the church banned him. There are dozens of good reasons why a blind man (or a one-legged deaf-mute or whatever else) might appropriately be banned from church. This particular claim does not seem appropriate for an encyclopedia article unless further verification or explanation is provided.
2120:
time affair with Nischik's wife and Hyles' was doing financial misdeeds, as reported in newspapers and several years later Nischik's book. 3) Robert Sumner a former Hyles follower made allegetions published in newspapers. If you choose to believe or not believe these people I DON'T CARE. They are documented are part of the Hyles history and go in the article.
1483:
able to see that I clearly documented your bias against Jack Hyles. It's there for anyone who wants to check it out. I encourage readers to go to your talk page and see your wholesale deletions that were made by you (16:45, 22 July 2006). (More proof that you're abusing your Admin authority to bury the truth). Yeah, you sure are unbiased, there, buddy.--
2655:"The third victim, a 20-year-old woman from the Columbia Center public housing project in Hammond, told how she would ride a bus Sunday mornings to the First Baptist Sunday school, and that A.V. Ballenger was her driver. She described the church as "a good church" she enjoyed attending, and said she liked Ballenger. But she said there were several times 4566:) Maybe you should consider creating a First Baptist Controversy page because there is much more to First Baptist Church of Hammond than controversy and scandal, which used to make up a fifth of the page! I also gave you evidence that the statements were wrong, and if you change it back, your wrong because your knowingly lying to people! 1876:-- And anything that is implied or insinuated should automatically be inserted into an encyclopedia article? Encyclopedias don't operate on innuendo. The church has a specific mission dedicated to serving the needs of blind people. This is ridiculous to include this sort of unfounded claim in an article about the church. 1082:). I would suggest that Arbusto's edits display a good grip of policy, and who cares if he has decided to fight whitewashing of Southern Fundamentalist articles? Is that beter or worse than Talk edits saying that Dick Mountjoy has a funny name? You will find that several admins are watching these articles fairly closely. 1521:. Your edit contains claims that are not in the article you listed as a reference. Also I was not aware that the Disablities Act allows people with disablities (including their assistance animals) access to everywhere able-bodied people can go with the exception of the Hammond church. A reference on such a claim is needed. 724:
somehow responsible for Mr. Combs' actions. That's very poor logic and does nothing but try to lead readers into a false conclusion. All these things together add up to a GREAT dispute of the facts as you have presented them here. The "Dispute" tag will remain; this is a dispute of the facts, not just a NPV concern. --
4501:
section, but tried to make things true (positive!). As long as there are lies,the churches testimony will be ruined. Please consider removing the controversy section altogether as that is what it is. Controversy based on unreliable proof and no evidence should not be found in an encyclopedia. 03:40, 6 March 2012 (UTC)~
3712:, like most church directory companies, takes photos of all church members and their families for the directory in hopes of selling them photo packages, etc. Descriptive filler pages suppled by the church are added to the directory. So in effect what you have is an self-promotional brochure put out by the church. 2641:"Another state witness was a former security officer at the church, who testified he saw Ballenger fondle a young girl in 1978 or 1979 in a Sunday school room after being called to the room by a female teacher. He said he confronted Ballenger, who was in a "trancelike state" with his hand under the girl's dress." 3036:
allegetions 2) the 1993 molestation at the church 3) the 1993 news report linking the North Sharon molestation to Hyles and FBCH 4) the 1997 rape lawsuit 5) the 2000 Comb's conviction 6) the blind man being banned. Those are all different cases documented in the press, which deserve a place in the article.
3761:
material. ("Teaching a semi-pelagian version of salvation," "puts forth the belief that "God cannot and He will not personally come to anyone and try to reconcile with him." What in the world does "puts forth the belief" mean anyway. It's just a fancy way of saying "I think he believes," which is opinion.
4221:
It's likely that I'll soon unprotect the page. A "flood" of sourced information about this church and its activities will go a long way towards NPoVing and settling this content. A section about the legal worries/scandals is helpful, even needed, but only if it's carried in a much more widely written
3092:
I agree that the molestation convictions should be mentioned in this article. There is substantial independent evidence that shows that Ballenger molested at least one female and possibly 3 or more. In all the cases it is important that you present the information truthfully and in a neutral tone.
2119:
That's your personal bias on who is "reputable" and what you mean by "source." 1) Voyle Glover an attorney who worked for a prosecutors office was quoted by newsappears and appeared on TV interviews with his allegations. 2) Victor Nischik who worked for Hyles as an accountant claimed Hyles had a long
2000:
You were advised to assume good faith by another admin. Please do so. 8 out 10 people said that we should get rid of this article. That seems like a clear consensus to me, but I am willing to let all the interested parties discuss the issue here. Perhaps you think that you and one other guy makes
1907:
I just came back to this page after a few month's absence, and glanced again at the Seeing Eye Dog story. Do you know how stupid that paragraph looks? Twenty-two years ago, a blind man got upset that the church would not let him have his dog in the church with him. Would any airline allow a guide dog
1482:
Oh, I see. Links that present Jack Hyles in a positive light are spam; links that bash Jack Hyles are "well-documented sources". Ok. Got it. At least I know what your definition of "spam" is now. Also, I see you deleted the entire FBC editing discussion on your talk page, JzG, so no one would be
1299:
Explain to me why linking to First Baptist Church OFFICIAL ministry web sites, on the First Baptist Church Wiki is not appropriate? Any reasonable person can see that if I'm writing an article about an organization, a link to that organization's OFFICIAL web site(s) should be included in the article,
1057:
Secondly, you reverted the section I had on ministries. It shows that you are bent on making this nothing but an attack page. Your large sections obout people with weak allegations have stayed but that isn't enough for you. If you you won't let others add non-negative information, then there is no
959:
Yes, there is a lot of controversy surrounding Jack Hyles, but all this encyclopedic article has done is repeat a lot of rumors and reports; there is very little fact-finding. For example, I am told that the controversy over the seeing-eye dog was instigated by the dog relieving himself in the church
660:
The "Disputed" tag should remain because Arbustoo has added an enourmous amount of negative data to this wiki, and other wikis relating to Jack Hyles, Hyles-Anderson College and First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana and other editors are disputing it, including me. The explaination for adding the
4135:
As a helpful note coming from an uninvolved admin, I would like to say that if the article carried a description of the church's big campus (and perhaps some history on its development), which sounds like it's as notable as a small town on Sundays, everything would tend to become much more balanced.
4080:
Read the article. Nowhere does it say the building seats 20,000. Nowhere does it say the church puts 20,000 people in one building. It clearly states it has 22,000 active members, not tourists. When it said it had 14,000+ in attendance, it does not state in one service. It states that attendance for
3795:
In 95% of all the information on this page, it is obvious that there is a strong bias AGAINST First Baptist Church. Oh btw, before accusing me of copy & pasting, check out the First Baptist Church website and tell me if any of that information was on there -- it isn't. So don't make false claims
3473:
Just want to explain that I made a couple of mass deletions without realizing that the article was on probation, and then immediately reverted them myself when I saw. Let me note that this article is currently 60% spurious advertising, and 30% libel that ought to be immediately removed according to
1955:
eight out of ten editors that commented on the article suggested that it be merged with this articule or deleted outright. Preying from the Pulpit is not notable enough to warrant its own article. The person who created the article cannot even tell us what channel, date, or time this show appeared
1329:
link to the OFFICIAL website of the subject if it has one - which it does, and we link it, both as the OFFICIAL website and as a source. The ministries are linked from the OFFICIAL website and that's fine. We do not need multiple links to the OFFICIAL websites of every OFFICIAL sub-ministry of the
4485:
helpful, sourced content about the church and its churchly activities, along with any descriptions and history of its campus, as discussed above. I would strongly suggest staying away from the criticism section altogether for the moment, at least until I've had time to look into it more and perhaps
4163:
I appreciate it. It is true that this church does good -- actually, it does a significant amount of good. It's sad that a couple of people fight to keep the bad history of the church alive and on this page. Their bias against our church and ministries is obvious but they continually hide behind the
3742:
It is true that there is no ISBN number. I do understand that the source may be considered unreliable and I apologize for that. I just don't understand how when any good chunk of information is added it is immediately deemed unreliable and taken off. However, people fight tooth and nail to keep all
3138:
No I did not. Arbustoo has repeatedly mistated the facts regarding my edits here and in other places. The diff you provided clearly shows that my version includes the molestation charge: "There is one documented instance where a member of First Baptist was found guilty of a crime of abuse. Daniel
3035:
I agree the history and article should be expanded, but whether the church is 500,000,000 every Sunday or 3,000 (the Hammond page claims its 3,000 every Sunday including busing in the surrounding areas) the criticism belongs there. There are different controveries, which should be included: 1) 1989
3007:
of that effect is nefarious. Lately the discussion page has wrapped itself in an expose' kind of article inclusion, rather that create an article about the church, about its effects in the community, about how people use the church as a place of fellowship, to improve their lives, to have some fun,
2610:
I want to get rid of any article that doesn't rightly belong in an encyclopedia. This article does not belong here. Only one other person on Knowledge (XXG) agreed with you that this article should stay here. It is patently ridiculous to include such nonsense in an encyclopedia. Are we going to
1379:
JzG, your anti-Hyles bias is obvious here. As evidence, you edited out what you called the "hyles fansite" link (edited on 13:37, 22 July 2006 by JzG) with your edit summary of "Hyles fansite can go on the Hyles article"... and you DID NOT edit out the 2 anti-Jack Hyles links under the "Criticism"
992:
BTW: The whole thing about "the seeing-eye dog was instigated by the dog relieving himself in the church aisle" I don't buy. Even if it did happen why ban a person from church because of the dog's mistake- a dog he needs. Then why not even take the time to explain your position with something other
943:
The statements made by the news media would have more weight with me if I had not witnessed their attacks on Jack Hyles for several years prior to these allegations. They always were looking for something to bring him down. Remember the time that FBCH gave out chicks (that is, baby chickens) to the
862:
Why don't you start with something specific? Speaking in broad general terms will get this discussion nowhere. Pick a single point - just one, and dispute it. Argue against the source, it's factuality; provide a counter-source, whatever. Maybe you don't have "hours and hours", but with a little
838:
Where? I asked Teeja to specify which facts should be omitted, which are provably false, which are missing. No answer, just a lot of arm-waving. I'm serious about wanting this article to be neutral, right now it looks as if FBC is a business run for the benefit of high-rolling pastors, if that's
713:
Much of the information you have currently in the controversy section is not from a reliable or neutral source and is therefore not a valid factual source for a Knowledge (XXG) entry. As examples, the paragraph concerning Bob Ross and the associated backup documentation is not from a reliable news
671:
The article doesn't say he's guilty or the color purple. It offers facts that Jack was accused of this, Ballenger connected to Jack raped a 7 year old, and Jack was sued for various things. Whether he's innocent or not, it comes from a credible source and will be included. Also don't edit/add to my
564:
I have added the "totallydisputed" tag to this wiki. If the anti-Hyles people edit all these Hyles-related entries so much so that 75 percent of the information presented is concerning their anti-Hyles "controvery information", something is wrong and additional sections need to be added to balance
4428:
Gwen, while you're dealing with this, perhaps you could look over the Criticism section? In my judgement, the only part that may meet Knowledge (XXG) standards of sourcing and relevance is the "AV Ballenger" section -- he was apparently a church deacon who was actually convicted of something that
3018:
Terryeo- I appreciate your comments. I am impressed that you, a person that has had numerous disagreements with me over the last several months, have come here to this article and made your viewpoints known, despite knowing that you are supporting my viewpoint. You are more honorable than I have
2737:
1) No one said he was charged, but three girls including his niece testified they were molested by him (plus the church worker and security guard). 2) The words "testimony," "testified," "court," "hearing," "prosecution," "prosecutors," "witnesses," etc. all give the impression it has to do with a
963:
There should be some mention in the article of the number of buildings and ministries operated by the church, and of the range the bus routes cover. It would be nice to add some history, such as the fact that the neighborhood surrounding FBCH used to be a red-light district, which the church under
955:
This issue is highly controversial, even within Christian fundamentalism. I know of several leaders within fundamentalism who never spared Jack Hyles from criticism. Several of his fellow preachers around the world simply did not like him, and easily accepted these reports when they came out. But,
677:
Of course you didn't say he's guilty, but that is obviously what you are trying to get readers to believe, and you are having an aweful struggle to write anywhere near a NPV style here. Your edits have proven that you indeed want readers to draw this faulty conclusion, but your conclusion is not a
3368:
An anonymous editor seems ot think we should link to every single one of the church's ministries' websites. We already cleaned that lot out months back. We already link to the church website, that's a reliable source for the article, the other links are not sources for the article and are linked
3276:
Any really large, successful group will, over a period of time (this is my opinion), have a few distateful actions associated with it. Perhaps Angels never, but for us humans, well, here and there, if you look hard enough, you are going to find some distateful thing. How does an editor evaluate
3210:
A newspaper may report all sorts of sensational claims, even anonymous claims, and claims made by people walking down the street. Just because a newspaper reports that "Joe Blow walking down the street says that he believes the FCBH is a bad church", doesn't mean that it is appropriate to repeat
3051:
It would be necessary too, to specify what action the individual was charged with. "molestation" is a different kettle of fish than "abuse", which might, conceiveably involve physical abuse such as beatings or bruisings or even (god forbid) broken bones or something. While "molestation" might be

handful of (about 4) individuals. A large church in any community will spawn, perhaps 10 newspaper clippings a week, maybe more. "Youth group meets Wed. at 4 PM" and "The Babtist Church is holding a bake sale Sunday at the Safeway" and many more details of people's lives. A large church has an
2868:
You are 100% completely wrong. It wasn't a trial. It was a sentencing hearing. That is completely different from a trial. The same standards of evidence do not apply to a sentencing hearing as a trial, and there is no jury to evaluate the truthfulness of the claims the witnesses make during a
2231:
Likewise I corrected your statements as well when you claimed "people" hadn't attended the college, when really it was Hyles' BELIEF that one "person" hadn't. Later on there was a police investigation. You misatttibuted the quotes of the obituary making it seem like they cam from separate sources
1156:
LOL. It is not notable when 2 out of 100,000 members of a church have committed burglarly. I believe every college would say they try instill a strong moral code in their students. I know lots of public and private universities that are not bible colleges that state just as much in their course
819:
This is not a competition. This not about being "anti-Jack Hyles." This is about sources. If you want to add a tag that questions the sources, you must give a reason. You were given the chance, you did not. You were asked to give an example, you did not. You were given a chance to remove the tags
784:
Teeja, the article on Adolf Hitler also contains mainly critical data. OK, this church is not the Nazi party, but the data is verifiable and appears to be stated in neutral terms. Which data do you think should be excluded as trivial, or alternatively what additional data do you think should be
4500:
Please be aware that my editing this article is for its own good. Also feel free to take a look at what I wrote. The claims were based on no proof! First Baptist is still KJB only. By stating that it departed from its "King James Only" standing is a lie. I did not add negativity to the criticism
3818:
Without preference for any version I have locked the article from further editing. Please make sure all edits are in compliance with Knowledge (XXG) policies and guidelines, and please do not edit war by reverting each others' changes. Material should not be copied from other websites, even with
3155:
As for the blind man being banned from the church -- I don't believe that is appropriate for an encyclopedia article about FBCH. We only have one person's statement about the matter and no other verifiable sources to back up his claim. There is no indication from the Church that indicates that
935:
I attended First Baptist Church of Hammond, Indiana, as a young sailor during the Fall of 1984. For years, I had heard of Jack Hyles (I remember my pastor giving high school graduates from his school a copy of Hyles' "Blue Denim and Lace."). I was quite willing to make the 100-mile bus ride from
872:
I really enjoy the personal attacks. First this anon. editor claims there is a conspiracy behind "unsource" attacks, then I source the article and provide independent sources and I become part of the conspiracy. Anon. IP, attacking me does nothing for your case. This is about facts. If you can't
723:
