If you have not archived the "hundreds and hundreds" of violations of
your rights electronically and in hard copy I would be doubtful that
you will be able to successfully win any law suit.

There will be severe question as to which or what rights of yours have
been violated.  Rights aren't something you violate... the are things
you deny.  A minor distinction, but one that is important when you
consider that those who post inflamatory remarks at you aren't
"denying" you anything.  They are harrassing you yes.  But that's
different from being denied your consitutional rights.

I frankly don't understand what rights you claim you have been denied
and I don't really want to hear a lengthy diatribe either.  I'm just
too busy.  I'd be interested in hearing what you have to say on the
net in the future however.
