Gang Stalking: Wikipedia's Agent Provocateurs & Cyber trolls

     Wikipedia scrubbed the information that this author added to its stalking page. This included deleting a reference to gang stalking under the Stalking by Groups subsection. It also included scrubbing two FOX-syndicated news stories on gang stalking. The first story scrubbed was the KION interview with Santa Cruz P.D. Lieutenant Larry Richard on the subject of "gang stalking" by groups. The second story scrubbed was the KENS-5 San Antonio investigative journalist piece confirming multiple open felony investigations related to gang stalking by groups by both the local San Antonio police and the San Antonio Sheriff's Office. This information had been on the Wikkipedia Stalking page since December, 2011. The scrubbing was instigated by government agent provocateur "Batvette" using the same moniker on Wikipedia as on NowPublic.

     When this author attempted to reinstate the two FOX news stories, other Wikipedia "editors" sprang into action, and, retaliated by removing this author's links to official Department of Justice documents he obtained under the F.O.I.A., about stalking by groups that were working together as teams. These F.O.I.A. documents were tenured on the Wikipedia Stalking page for over ONE YEAR.

     This is the Wikipedia Stalking article before the censorship occurred: 

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Stalking&diff=prev&oldid=501435716#Stalking_by_groups

      This is the current Wikipedia page after the scrubbing:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stalking#Stalking_by_groups

      Here is the Wikipedia talk page on gang stalking explaining the "rationale" behind the scrubbing redaction "edits":

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk%3AStalking#US_DOJ_report_on_Stalking_Victimization_in_the_US.2F_implied_to_indicate_.22gang_stalking.22

      In order to follow the rest of the discussion, please read the subsection "US DOJ Report on Stalking Victimization in the US / implied to indicate "gang stalking"" linked above.

     The first paragraph comes to the bogus conclusion that because stalking by groups is not referred to specifically as "gang stalking" in the DOJ stalking materials, the use of the term "gang stalking" in the above-referenced FOX news pieces makes the activity of "gang stalking" different than "stalking by groups". This is purely a semantic and cosmetic difference that would be quickly understood by any "editor" at Wikipedia who was neither a government agent provocateur, nor lobotomized. 

     The second paragraph in the link above, as well as, Batvette's talk page on Wikipedia "deletion review for gang stalking" subsection, linked below, make it clear that government agent provocateur Batvette (the same government agent provocateur Batvette on NowPublic) initiated the deletion of the two FOX news stories on gang stalking from the Wikipedia Stalking page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Batvette#Deletion_review_for_Gang_Stalking

      The two news stories were the most probative evidence of nationwide gang stalking to date. One was the only interview with an active duty police officer to publicly speak about gang stalking. The other news story was the only reference to multiple, open felony investigations relating to gang stalking. 

      Here was the author's response, from the Wikipedia Stalking talk page, to Batvette's perfidious action in deleting the news stories:

User Batvette is making a false distinction between "stalking by groups" and "gang stalking". Gang stalking is simply a different terminology for stalking by groups. The Stalking Report indicates substantial group stalking in America. The FOIA documents referenced in the section on Stalking by Groups indicate 185,050 cases of "group stalking" a.k.a. "gang stalking", i.e., stalking by teams or groups acting in concert. These same FOIA documents enumerate the 185,050 cases into cases of between "3" to "50" stalkers, listing a total for each category of between "3" and "50" stalkers. The "gang stalking" news stories are in fact news stories of stalking by groups. These two stories are both mainstream FOX-syndicated T.V. news stories. Gang stalking by groups of stalkers is affirmed by an active duty police lieutenant from Santa Cruz P.D. in the first story. The second story is an investigative journalist piece confirming multiple, open police investigations of multiple felony crimes in San Antonio related to gang stalking by groups of stalkers.

     This response was followed by two Wikipedia "editors" posts that basically stated that the use of "gang stalking" implied conspiracy theories, and, "sensationalist" tabloid-style news. This is contradicted by the fact that both FOX-syndicated news stories were mainstream, and, were both supported by police statement confirmation in both California and Texas. Also, eluding the "editors" is the fact that stalking performed by groups necessitates the underlying crime of conspiracy!

     The author replied by stressing the solid content of the relevant and highly probative news stories deleted:

Two mainstream news stories have been redacted because of semantics, to wit, the use of the term "gang stalking". These include a public statement by an active duty police lieutenant from Santa Cruz on "gang stalking" by groups. Also included is an investigative journalist news story from San Antonio finding multiple, open felony cases related to "gang stalking" by groups by both local San Antonio police, and, the San Antonio Sheriff's Office. These are both FOX-syndicated news stories. The content being scrubbed is probative, factual in nature and relevant, and, is far from being "sensationalist" or tabloid news. The fact that vast conspiracy theories are affiliated with gang stalking is irrelevant to the value of these two factually-based news stories. There are many academic topics that are mired in conspiracy from the moon landing to the J.F.K. assassination. The litmus test should be the quality and content of the materials redacted, not the conspiracy label.PeaceFrog71 (talk) 13:58, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

Both articles are mainstream media news stories and contain information derived from law enforcement officials. There has been no impeachment of the content of the stories. Batvette's argument that the stories are the residue of "sensationalist" claims is irrelevant. Nothing has been adduced to impeach the credibility of the two news stories citing law enforcement concerns and investigations in both California and Texas. The entire rationale behind the redaction is the use of the term "gang stalking" in both news stories. This term has been adopted for activities of reported group stalking by some law enforcement officials. The redaction based upon the terminology "gang stalking", of otherwise highly probative material on group stalking, is cosmetic and semantic. Suggestion:

Some commentators have used the controversial term "gang stalking" to refer to reported cases of stalking by groups. [ft] PeaceFrog71(talk) 14:46, 9 July 2012 (UTC)

     True to form, the control freak editors have barred this author from even arguing his case further on the Stalking talk page, claiming he is guilty of "edit warring".

     Here is what Wired.com has to say about the politics of Wikipedia "editing":

Dear laughed out of court

 

I saw that the first time you posted it, it failed to answer my questions then, it fails to answer my questions now.

I am not asking about COINTELPRO I am asking about what posters like the 1 are experiencing, I realize repeating what you already said eases the strain on your limited mind, but it is also rather tedious and doesnt progress the conversation at all. You DO want the conversation to progress, dont you?

@the 1

 

thank you for your polite response, as I have previously mentioned I am not inclined to dismiss these things out of hand as 'crazy talk'. I realize being repeatedly asked for evidence, etc. must get frustrating but I am glad that you at least, can appreciate the importance of putting things in a coherent and rational order. I believe if more posters responded as you do, the response to this topic from non-victims such as myself and even all out sceptics , would be far more positive.

So you believe that in the US right now, millions of perpetrators are involved in psychological sensitization programs to destroy hundreds of thousands of targets by merely jangling keys, wearing red shirts, and leaving lawn mowers on their lawns, things like that. 

Describe a day in the life of a real target, as you have witnessed.

Thanks for the response and question batvette..

One thing that one must first try and realize is why the examples you gave "jangling keys, wearing red shirts, and leaving lawn mowers on their lawns"  might possibly have been in someway playing into a victims thoughts and psyche making them believe that because of those suggested examples, that they are indeed being harassed and gangstalked. This comes only after repeated and long term exposure to specific gangstalking psychological sensitization methods. That why the actual 'psychological sensitization' component in gangstalking is such an important factor and method used and implemented to manipulate and effect gangstalking victims minds, logic, and emotional spirit.

As a possible example, let me suggest what one 'gangstalking victim' might have experienced from actual gangstalking technics that would lead to them to believe in the examples you've suggested.

Lets take the red shirt for example..

Specific gangstalking directed towards a victim can be very similar to this..

On lets say specific days of the week a targeted individual might be exposed to repeated individuals walking by them in an unusual large numbers all wearing red shirts. This may only seem a bit odd if it happens once, but lets say the victim is exposed to this activity every monday, wed, friday, for three months straight wherever they might be or go. This is specifically to cause and create the victims attention, and more importantly purposely 'sensitize' the gangstalked victim to this activity. Now let us say this activity suddenly stops, but a week later this gangstalked victim sees three people together wearing red shirts. Because of the sensitization to this victim, the victim may assume whether correctly or not that these individuals might be perpetrators purposely there to stalk, annoy, or actually psychologically effect and demean the victim. This type of situation is purposely repeated hundreds of times on victims until the victim knows or realizes they are being targeted; even though any casual observer specifically won't notice anything odd or out or the ordinary. This is of course by design to keep the gangstalking going on without being noticed by anyone else. Yet the victim would be fully and quite purposely aware that they are being stalked and continually followed and harassed. In the end you could substitute multiple people jiggling keys specifically in some other similar gangstalking example, or understand after some repeated scenario with lawn movers how and why this type of 'repeated method sensitization' is so important and purposely used to create in victims minds and psyche the illusion, whether real, accurate or not in each perceived incidence, that the victim is being gangstalked. This of course is by design. Gangstalking technics work when victims have become so sensitized to these street theater events that they believe, whether real or not, that each continued event or incidence is happening to them, and that they are being gangstalked.

Gang-stalking can be and is as much a psychological disturbing experience, as much as it is some physical (street theater) event_to victims of it. If exposed gang-stalking would be considered a malicious and human rights attack with multiple constitutional violations. It would be considered illegal on multiple levels of physical, emotional and mental cruelity laws,including specific constitutional freedom, privacy, and hate crime law violations.

I'd rather hear Peacefrog, or you, or his sock puppets, describe what gangstalking activities you personally experience, then go off  on hypothetical experiences that may be happening to some other fictional people.

(not verified)  Lies putting words in my mouth I never said to discredit me, pretends to be a gang stalking victim so has no account of their own. (as if a real victim would have waited all this time to ever discuss what happens to them until I came along and asked about it.)

(not verified) How much do you and Peacefrog get paid for spreading all this disinformation?

Obviously too much: The broad strokes of the "criminal gang stalking program" is well known. 

as competence in  English composition seems to be something they no longer demand from the staff at disinfo central. However the "broad strokes" as painted by others are so easy to call your own as well, aren't they?

The reason your disinformation was removed was made clear on that article's talk page, perhaps you should go there and discuss it with wiki admin.

THIS IS CLEARLY A PROGRAM AFFECTING COUNTLESS THOUSANDS OF INDIVIDUALS.

We don't know how many people are involved unless each shares their personal account with the public. You've never done this and have long engaged in a disinformation campaign involving outrageous silly "tactics" of ridiculous "psychological sensitization" being perpetrated by millions of individuals in a vast government conspiracy, a scenario the public and authorities can rightfully ridicule and dismiss. The fact you cannot provide any personal experiences of your own while asserting stupid shyte you find on the internet from others is really happening make it all too convenient for you to operate as a tool for the program to permanently marginalize any similar claims, yet leave yourself beyond accountable for all the stupid shyte you publish. Forgetting all that is still the basic premise that if a person has never and refuses to describe events that happen to others they say also happen to them, it is highly unlikely they are what they claim.

I am pretty sure that was the number of uninvestigated claims of being stalked, not all of them were verified as being accurate. Or were they?

Your entry in that wiki article was disinformation. Apparently you are under the misconception that merely seeing gang stalking mentioned in enough places, surrounded by falsehoods and sensationalism, is "progress". 

I disagree, and stated the reason for removing that entry weeks in advance of doing so. Before you were blocked from further editing for a number of violations to wiki policy including edit warring and using sock puppet accounts you had a chance to reply to my rationale your entry was false and misleading disinformation to targets but you chose to ignore it and went off on irrelevant tangents. 

I'm sorry you find obstruction to your proliferation of false information to targets which is a liability to discredit them amounts to me being a "fraud" and your delusion that you have the authority to declare who is a "legitimate gang stalking target" or not. 

I suppose authoring a web page complaining seeing lawn mowers on lawns amounts to "abuse" might win points from Peacefrog, the biggest source of disinformation on the internet, but I'm not interested, thank you. 

I do take exception to your repeated and never substantiated allegation I am a "liar" and again offer the opportunity to provide an example of this or just again prove YOU are the liar and worst attorney that ever slept through the bar exam, and have merely adopted "gang stalking" as your own cause to make up for your incredibly failed life living in your parents' basement or garage. "No, mom, really, I'm not a loser, I'm being gang stalked! Can't you see them, they're everywhere!".

Those 185,000 people reported being stalked in the sense as defined by law, can you elaborate on how this validates any claims of "psychological sensitization" or the various so called "tactics" promoted by "activists" like yourself that all too uncannily resemble a schizophrenic's perceptions of reality?

But let's get back to that "government document". I thought you claimed your FOIA request resulted in you being presented with something in a form you could not access. Yet it appears you are the source of that report. Where is the answer to the question that is missing about who they believed was involved? Don't you want to know the answer to this? Or are you hiding it with any effort possible as it precludes your conspiracy theory?

0
Questions, questions

Batvette, If you understood the FOIA process and had taken the time to look at the Victimization Survey, you might be able to answer some of your own questions, but that would take some work.   It's easier to expect others to provide answers to your questions, rather than figuring out the answers yourself.  The process of seeking answers for oneself -- the exercise alone -- is often instructive.  You might just discover something new.

We went through this a few times already, son. We agreed that was a dubious and arguably immoral bent to who was targeted but there WERE reasons why they were targeted by such programs.


I am guessing you are neither a nobel prize winner or an anti-war protester, right?


So how are you in any way like the example you gave me before? Such a person could if they so wished cause a great deal of grief for those in power and rally popular support. YOU on the other hand are a complete nobody.
