Our Community is NOT Stupid...and No 
Longer Can be Swayed by Distorted Commentary
If one has any further question as 
to the reason a copy of the initial email sent to Sun City Anthem president, 
Jean Capillupo, did not go to one particular community blog, it should be quite 
obvious by now. 
No...this article in NOT about him...this is about OPEN 
COMMUNICATION and the ability to THINK FOR 
YOURSELF.
This is about COMMON SENSE.
This "free 
speech" matter was directed to the President of Sun City Anthem, to other 
members of a Board of Directors, and those blog owners who fight a daily battle 
to afford citizens the right to an honest and financially secure 
retirement.
In our opinion, common sense says....Mrs. Capillupo IS PLAYING HIDE AND SEEK, that her 
silence has had many people question her MOTIVES, and subsequent CREDIBILITY and ABILITY to 
lead.
...that the SYSTEM is now under FIRE, that those 
who have questioned its leadership for years, and been criticized for doing 
so, now HAVE A STRONGER  VOICE....
...FOUR OF 
THEM...FOUR INDEPENDENT 
BLOGS...
...that a community tunes into each 
day....to hear FREE SPEECH COMMENTARY and question actions of those who, to date, have gone 
unquestioned AND refuse to answer many questions...
...and are defended by those who have referred 
to honest citizens in the most heinous of 
terms.
...that the 
system IS SCARED... that THESE INDEPENDENT VOICES 
are not harming the community, but instead are making 
attempts to heal wounds that have been brought to it by THIS SYSTEM; that 
their voices might somehow become so strong as to TOPPLE it 
and ring in a new era of openness that has not existed for 
years.
This entire matter was between a Sun 
City Anthem President's derogatory comments toward blogs stating they provided 
"misinformation"...and those who chose to STAND UP TO 
HER ...and...profess a belief in FREE SPEECH, 
and  say...WHO?... and...WHAT 
MISINFORMATION?
And this will NOT GO AWAY...until we as blog owners, 
and you, the residents of this Sun City Anthem community, are provided 
sufficient answers.
Why are we insisting on this?  
...Because TODAY...it's US....TOMORROW...it could 
be YOU.
...AND...if you 
DON'T SUPPORT US TODAY....we will be UNABLE TO 
SUPPORT YOU TOMORROW.
One blog, the blog which was omitted 
from the initial email to the president, has chosen to defend the community 
president...not by confronting the accusation, but in a typical manner...and formula used over and over again...perhaps 
successfully...UNTIL 
NOW.
Rather than discuss the seriousness of the situation...
...instead... make a feeble attempt to DIVERT ATTENTION FROM IT...
...by mocking those who have been the victims...
...MOCKING THE RIGHT TO DEFEND ONES SELF...
... from commentary that was designed to MALIGN the efforts of those good citizens who spend hours each day in writing these valued publications.
A week ago Anthem Opinions published 
an article that involved the word CREDIBILITY...and...that word could never be stronger than in the 
present.
And in our opinion, CREDIBILITY should cause concern to any 
intelligent person foolish enough to read distorted accountings of this 
matter.
Writes a particular blog author: 
"To rectify the problem, Capillupo suggested that 
folks go to the source whenever possible to get the true facts about various 
matters.
That...IS NOT WHAT SHE WROTE.
This is:
"If you hear something that seems unlikely or even impossible, or just doesn’t pass the sniff test, please check it out by contacting someone who has the straight story."
Emails were sent TO EACH BOARD MEMBER asking WHO THAT PERSON WOULD BE....AND... NOTHING...yes, NOTHING...has been received in a response.
That is the issue...nothing more...and nothing else.
...that this matter....could easily have been rectified...HAD A BOARD PRESIDENT OR ANY BOARD MEMBER DECIDED TO ACT LIKE A LEADER....not run like scared rabbits...and answered a few very basic questions ANY PERSON who was accused of something, was entitled to know.
Just remember...the person maliciously attacked tomorrow...could be YOU.
