Shelley and the GSD Underground Railway - Page 10

Hey Sam,
If you believe all that BS you put on here about the women always getting a great shake from the cops and all, I'll send you MY file. Three file boxes full and growing. Would you like copies of all the arrest warrants? How many states worth? Want the Federal ones too? How about send me the $100 grand secured bond my ex forfeited when he attacked me again IN the courthouse parking lot? Want to come roast marshmallows with me? I bet all the worthless paper I have here in restraining orders will make almost as nice a bonfire as when he burned everything in the house out in the yard. Hell, I'll even buy you some beer. Next time he comes and sits outside my house and the cops won't arrest him cause he's on a public street, you two can just have yourselves a grand old party. Bring the whole PA crowd along with you too.
Go stuff your Sam Spade self back down a hole.

Sam
What is this Fund you want to set up for her, may i ask you who is going to contribute to it other than yourself
There is already a Fund set up for her you have been told this already another one is not needed,
All you want is information to set your mind at rest that she is genuine, or could there could be some other motive
Let me put it this way
The less people who know where Shelley at any time is the better for her regards Safety and that moronic jerk of a husband then cannot trace her so easy
As for wanting other information on what is going on and where she is that you nor me do not need to know, give with a good heart or not at all and accept the fact that she is a very very brave lady who needs the help of others to get a normal stable life, not a lot to ask of anyone i think
Steve

   Okay, I am confused. .. (nothing new!  )

     A person asks questions when funds are being solicited on a public forum.  Most of us do not (and probably cannot) know each other personally.   We can believe that we have a handle on who and what type of person anyone is, based upon their postings here.  Maybe.  (Some of the most obnoxious individuals on the internet are sweet and charming in person--a Jekyll/Hyde thing, apparently.  Conversely, some of the toughest take-no-prisoners bitches alive  who'd smack you down physically in person seem to hold back on the internet.) However, most of us have learned that there are , and always have been, some scammers among us.  This forum is FULL of threads about who screwed whom in which dog-deal.  Plus, we all get those scamming emails requesting assistance; whether the writer is from Nigeria, England, Taiwan, or Scotland, it all comes down to the same thing.  So,  WHY is simply asking questions, before sending financial assistance to someone he/she does not know, so suspect that the person posing the question is called a "stalker" and practically accused of criminal activity?


     Shelley herself is well acquainted with at least one POS in the sport to whom one doesn't dare do anything like send a check, regardless of how dire their circumstances may be---Lord only knows what he'd do with your account number in hand.  (Shelley knows exactly who I am talking about).    While there are more folks in our "community" like Steve1 (an incredibly generous soul!!) and women  like DebiSue and Michelle, who have fought their way out of abusive situations and therefore identify with Shelley,  there are cads, scammers, and trash among us, too.  As far as I can see, all Sam Spade has done is express an interest in helping, AND  wanting to ascertain that he/she is not being scammed. 

  btw:  I don't know whether Sam Spade is a guy or female. The only real person I know who is actually named Sam Spade is female.

Sam, why not just let it go,the people that wish to help Shelly are going to so, no matter what.If you choose not to help,that is your right. I don't know Shelly,and haven't read any of the threads about her in the past,so I don't have any thing to base my opinion on  one way or another.People form opinions,based on ther own experience,or sometimes just a gut feeling,maybe right,maybe wrong.Maybe you just want to be sure before you help and thats fine,I see your point.It seems as though you're not willing to except the fact that Shelly does not want to explain things to you and it makes you look bad to continue. I don't know you either so please don't take me the wrong way. I also am supicious by nature,but am willing to accept this for what it is.I can't donate anything to anyone, my wife and I are both unemployed since April.Even though I don't know Shelly,I would donate to her cause if I could,not because I felt like she was legit or not,but because I would feel like I did something good for a fellow human being.If Shelly is scamming,well Shelly has to live with that not me.I do see your point,but in this case I think it is pointless for you to continue with this.I wish you the best and at the same time I also wish Shelly the best,and I hope she's safe and happy.To all of you helping Shelly,you deserve to feel good about yourselves,its a very unselfish deed,and my hats off to all of you.No offence meant to anyone,just my thoughts.

It is great that Shelley got out, it really is. The only question that pops into mind is why is she sitting on a message board all day while collecting your guys' money from PayPal? Shouldn't she be out looking for a job? I know I would feel guilty taking funds from others who may or may not be better off than myself, while I was sitting around. This is not an attack on anybody, just a legitimate question.

"Normal, stable life." Boy does THAT have a lovely ring to it!
I remember a life that was something like that. Alone perhaps, but never lonely.
I want it back.
Not revenge, not vindication, not retaliation, not fame nor fortune, just a normal, stable life, supported with constructive endeavors and motivated to decent goals, for myself and my dogs.
Surely, with a little help and a lot of work, that is possible again, even at my age?
I hope so!

Sorry to hear of your misfortunes.  My interest in this has nothing to do with discrediting abused women.  I know it happens more than reported.  I feel for you and the others.

Steve
I appreciate your tact.  I merely want to be re-assure that this is legitimate. 

Mystere
Thank you!  I can't believe how blasted one can get for asking a few questions.  I'm sure if I called any of these people on the phone, they would immediately send some cash!

Michael
I am letting it go.  Thank you.  BUT right after this:


Gracie
You seem to be the stalker.  You are a bully.  I have not attacked  Shelley.  I asked her a set of questions.  Why is that so wrong if she is taking donations?  Everything you write about me is actually a reflection of your attitude towards me.  If any of us are on the verge of doing something improper or illegal, it is you.    You are the one being obnoxious. 

Oli
I hope you know your rules.  I have broken none of them.  I would like to ask that you review them as Gracie seems to have forgotten some.

!Adios, Muchachos!

Autobahn,

I don't believe that Shelley sits on this message board all day while collecting other people's money from PayPal.  Yes, she checks in on here from time to time, and vents sometimes, posting more than once, but I don't think she's living as high on the hog as some have made it sound.  She's living under a roof donated by the kindness of others, trying to keep her van running, trying to keep food for the dogs, and trying desperately to gather enough funds to get headed west.  It is not something you just undertake to do lightly.  There is some planning required to travel three thousand miles from your home base, to hire an attorney and get rid of a ton of emotional and marital baggage.  And, in case you haven't noticed, Shelley has been keeping *gasp* personal records of everything she's received from the friends here, and she will pay it all back, once she gets where she's going and settled.

And those who know her personally, know she will, too.  If you want to be suspicious, that is certainly your right, but until a person has walked in her shoes, I don't think it's their right to throw stones at her.

Are you sure I am not working part time at my old "work from home" job, and applying for/interviewing for full time positions a good deal of the rest of the time, and performing some work in exchange for my keep, AND taking care of my own darling dogs? 
I need a more permanant address before I can take on another high pressure advertising job, but I hve applied for a couple of attractive ones anyway, just in case.
