An Interesting Update On Earl Campbell And Eastern Shore Undercover

2h 
A local website asserts it has the “most engaged social media platform on the Eastern Shore.” Let’s delve into the matter.
In your opening paragraph, you mention that “we all value the power of truth.” I wholeheartedly agree with this sentiment.
In your second paragraph, you refer to my posts as “inaccurate information concerning our children’s school bathrooms.” This assertion is simply your perception Earl. When one party expresses a viewpoint that another disagrees with, labeling it as inaccurate is merely conjecture.
Your third paragraph states, “my wife and I ‘were’ both friends with him…” I was unaware that this status had changed. However, I understand that relationships can evolve. I have experienced similar situations before, and I anticipate it will happen again. We have collaborated in the past, and I hope that continues, especially when it comes to supporting children and those in need.
In your fourth paragraph, you write, “Therefore, I felt as his friend, I should share with him information that I had received and viewed personally about incidents in Worcester County. Despite sharing factual information with him…” This is where your argument begins to falter, Earl.
Regrettably, your statement is not accurate. You did not “share” any information. Instead, you presented what was your opinion, but there was no factual information provided. Even after I requested it, you were unable to produce any evidence. You may remember when you mentioned having seen video evidence supporting your claims, and I inquired whether this information came from law enforcement or the school district. You responded that it was available on Instagram and SnapChat and that I could search for it myself. Unfortunately, I do not use SnapChat, as I am an adult and not a teenager. That is my ‘opinion.’ (see what I did there?)
In the fifth paragraph, you claim, “He decided to ignore the information he was provided and continued with his false narrative and erase my comments from his page.” I did not ignore anything, Earl. You offered your opinion, not factual information as I had asked for. Given your experience in law enforcement, you should understand the distinction.
You allege that I have a false narrative, yet all I requested was a video to support your position, which you could not provide. Regarding the deletion of your comments, the thread you initiated on my post had been overtaken by spam accounts saying, “hi. You keep popping up in my feed. I’ve sent you several friend requests, can’t we be friends?” Consequently, I deleted it. I also checked to see if I could recover it for this discussion using facebook instructions, but it was not in my Facebook trash folder.
Paragraph six presents an interesting perspective. You stated, “Now, we can see that he has been charged criminally for more political antics….” Thank you for the spin word “antics.” It is also important to recognize that while the term “charged” is used, it does not equate to “convicted.” Surely, you recall these distinctions from your law enforcement experience, correct? Or am I not afforded the same consideration?
In the concluding paragraphs, you attempt to bring your audience back to a more amicable tone with a sentiment about unity. While I have no objection to this approach, I perceive your underlying intent.
You frequently use the term “friend” as if it grants you insight into my personal life. The reality is, you do not possess such knowledge. Why? That’s an easy one. You never asked me. If you’re going to be an investigative reporter on social media, please at least ask some questions. You may be surprised at what you uncover.
To summarize, Earl, I expressed what I believe to be the truth, and you responded with an aggressive viewpoint. I requested that you provide the video, which you were unable to do. You suggested I search for it myself, which I did, but to no avail. Despite this, you continued to disagree with my stance and, while not explicitly accusing me of dishonesty, you have led your readers to infer that conclusion.
Please do me a favor friend. Respectfully, let me finish one battle over here in my community before you attempt to drag me into another one in yours..
On a positive note, I appreciate your acknowledgment of our friendship and your lack of animosity towards me. I can only imagine how your post would have read had that not been the case.
