Not knowing when to leave well enough alone

Ok, so Adam Peeples just sent me yet another message. The one he sent earlier was pleasant enough. The message I sent back to him was courteous, and simply stated that I had never meant anything malicious and had simply stood up for what I believed in. In his first message, he requested that I call him. I don't know how many of you know this, but I don't like to talk to ANYONE on the phone except a VERY select few Friends and Family. I prefer to text or email. I think a lot of you are the same way.

I thanked him for the invitation to call, and told him that I prefer not to speak on the phone.

I believe that Adam is a manipulator. And I know from past experience that it is MUCH easier to manipulate someone on the phone than in a written message. I believe that is exactly why he wanted to speak on the phone. (I could go on and on on that topic ;-)

I told him that I was not a spy for his Ex Wife, in fact I had NEVER met her. And never planned to.

He told me what a nightmare being married to her was. I said that I understood, and was glad he was rid of that in his life.

What he was prolly hoping I would say was that I was wrong about what I said about him, and that I would retract it. However, instead, I told him that I stand behind what I believe in.

This was not what he wanted to hear.

The last message he sent to me was angry, accusing, and all about how much damage I had done to his campaign over a personal vendetta.

My Post on here is the only thing I have EVER said about him except ONE status on FB that said "Every time I see his name I want to scream." So this "post" is what he is referring to.... which btw, YES, I sent it to everyone I could think of who might vote in his District. But it is not slandering. It doesn't even reference his personal life or his Family (except as people I went to to learn the truth.) It simply states that I believe based on personal experience, that he is a bad choice for the office he is running for.

Something he has obviously missed in all of this, is that when you get into politics, you open yourself up to criticism. Your personal life is no longer private. Everything is fair game. That's just how it is. What I have said is prolly very near the bottom of the worst he will have said about him before he actually achieves his goal of being elected to a public office.

I told him in response that I stand behind what I have said, and that I have done nothing but my duty as an American Citizen. I have stood up to keep those I feel are a poor choice to represent me and those I love out of office.

He told me that he still pays tithing to the LDS Church (even though he has renounced his belief in that same church). I informed him that I couldn't care less if he pays tithing. What I care about is how he treats people.

He said that the damage I have created is already done, and that it hasn't benefited anyone. I told him that It HAS benefited me and the ones I love because A) I stood behind what I believe, B) I refused to stay silent while yet another poor choice was elected to represent me and my freedoms, and C) I have obviously accomplished what I set out to do: He wouldn't be so upset if no one was willing to listen to what I had to say. Obviously what I have to say is upsetting his chances of winning or else I am just a pest to ignore ;-). People are listening to me. And he doesn't like it.

His first message was an attempt to save face. And when I graciously declined his "invitation" to play HIS way, he got Angry! GOOD! Then I have achieved the goal I set out to reach. I have made my voice heard. It has become stronger, and I can hold my head up a bit higher.

DO NOT VOTE FOR ADAM PEEPLES!!!!!

All of you Wonderful Magna Residents (or ANYONE in District 22) PLEASE do not vote for Adam Peeples in the upcoming election! Trust me, he is NOT the person he was in High School, and I Believe he is a VERY bad choice to represent the People of Utah!

If he was running as a Democrat. Or even a Liberal, it might be totally different! However, he is not. He is running as a Conservative Republican. His views are not Conservative AT ALL!!!!!! which means that he does not have the same view on things that he is advertising or as the people he is wanting to represent. The problem with this is a simple conflict of interest. He will represent what HE believes. Period. And if it is not the same as what the people he represents believe, then THEY, not HE are just out of luck.

He advertises that if you know him, then you know what he believes. And if you don't, then ask around. Well, I THOUGHT I knew him, but what I KNOW he believes is NOT what conservative Utahns believe. And what I was unclear on, I DID ask around. And have been harrassed, and attacked for it. I even went to people who could give me the truth vs gossip.... his Fiance, and Sister. And was accused of being a "Spy" for his ex wife... who I have NEVER met. When I finally got a chance to speak to HIM, after being shunned for a few YEARS, I told him that I meant no harm.... simply wanted to know the facts from the fiction (I had heard a lot of gossip, and wanted to know the truth.) Now, I have lost several friends for an honest mistake.... or really no mistake, I was simply asking for truth, NOT PASSING ON GOSSIP.

You DO NOT want Adam representing you! He will not tell you the truth. He will not represent YOUR ideals. And he will try to shut up or shut out ANYONE who tries to learn more than he wants people to know. This is fine for an individual. NOT for someone who is supposed to be representing YOUR Honest Christian values and virtues!
