Slander is Their Favorite Game

A bully who hates you, turns to his neighbor and says, "That guy over there is a pedophile." If this is said about you, that's all it takes to become labeled by people who do not know you. And it's especially easy in a neighborhood where one neighbor barely knows the other. It didn't used to be that way - until HE moved in.

We know that our accuser - our former bully neighbor of four years - still spreads the slander - comes back to the neighborhood and gets neighbors stirred up because he is utterly obsessed with destroying us. We did not give him our property, we took him to court for shooting at us, etcetera, and he moved out one day before a trial that could have put him away for several months. The other thing about him - his children exhibit all the signs of having been molested. The vast majority of molestations occur within families.

People we once knew as friends are no longer friendly. They distance themselves and believe the rumor.

Bullies, with their twisted gray matter, need to be distrusted, not believed, distanced, alienated, stood up to, and driven out. But few people have the guts to do that.
