-= my response to. the harassment -=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

My first reaction in. 1990/91 was to assume that if I broke contact then
they would. not be able to follow and would lose interest. So I did the
things that have been suggested by other people;. I sold my television,
stopped listening to the radio and. tried to withdraw away from the sources
of abuse as. much as possible. I reasoned that they must have more important
things to deal with and that normal people would simply. leave me alone if
it. were made difficult for them to continue their harassment.

I reckoned. without the sheer vindictiveness of the abusers. They did not
let up but instead "got. to" people around me, mainly people at work, to do
their dirty work for. them. I went to see my GP, who refused to believe what
he was being told, and refused to direct me on to anyone. who could be of
practical assistance. It was not until three years had passed. that the GP
admitted the matter was outside his competence and suggested. going to the
police.

The postings to uk.misc newsgroup generated a. very defensive reaction from
Usenet readers in the UK. So much so, that they tried strenuously. to
suppress what was being said, both by breaking the. rules of netiquette in
their responses. on the forum, and directly by action to revoke the account
from which the. postings were issued.

Yet the postings were. within the normal boundaries of behaviour for
uk.misc, and. other less partisan spectators did not see justice in the
censorship which. was effected, as the following excerpt shows;

Strangers in. the street have recognized me on sight many times, and shown
awareness of the current thread of abuse. To give you one example, in. 1992
I was seriously ill, and a manager at. work somewhat humorously said that
"it wasn't fair" that people were bullying. me. A few days later, I attended
for. the first time a clinic in London as an outpatient, and on my way out
was. accosted by someone who asked if "they had paid my fare", with emphasis
on the word "fare".. He repeated the word several times in this different
context; that they should have paid. my "fare", each time emphasizing the
word.

For two and a half years from the time their. harassment started until
November 1992 I. refused to see a psychiatrist, because I reasoned that I
was not ill of. my own action or fault, but through the...

-=. why won't the British police do their job and put a stop to it? -=
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

The British police obviously do know what. is taking place. Besides my
interpretations of what. individual officers have said which forces that
conclusion, it would be inconceivable for them to be. unaware of something
on. this scale.

If they know, then they will. know that the abusers have broken laws in the
UK and abroad. Recently the UK introduced laws against. electronic spying
which carry a penalty of several. years jail if caught. If the police know
illegal harassment is. taking place, and do nothing about it, then they are
failing in their. responsibilities.

Last Easter (1995) I went into the local police station. in London and spoke
to an officer about the. harassment against me. But I couldn't provide
tangible evidence; what. people said, in many cases years ago, is beyond
proof, and without something to support my statements I cannot expect. a
police officer to. take the complaint seriously.

The article. of which part is reproduced below was penned by Bernard Levin
for. the Features section of the Times on 21 September 1991. To my mind, it
described the situation at. the time and in particular a recent meeting with
a. friend, during which I for the first time admitted to someone other than
my GP that I had. been subjected to a conspiracy of harassment over the
previous year and. a half.
