Just as a follow-on from my piece last week Wherein BooMan Has a Run-In with the Police, the story was picked up by Mithras at Fables of the Reconstuction, where the Principal of Great Valley Middle School, Dr. Stephen Swymer replied in the comments. Not long after he threatened me…
Wait until Booman and friends find out about their next legal problem.
…with legal action I found out just what he had in mind. You see, Dr. Swymer is retiring after 30 years in this school district. And they are having a big party (.pdf) for him tonight. You might think that he would be focused on his accomplishments in his long career or that he would be going out for drinks with some of his colleagues, but that is not the case. Dr. Swymer is, instead, obsessed with my blogging about his incompetence and general idiocy. In fact, I just received a phone call from the local police. They were a little embarrassed to have to contact us, but Dr. Swymer wanted to know if we were planning on attending his event. The police told us that the whole blogging thing was purely free speech and NOT…A…PROBLEM. Apparently, the legal action ‘Booman and friends’ are facing relates to a polite request that I don’t…I don’t know (?)…go honor the man’s record of service to the Great Valley School District.
I guess he thought the police would ask me to stop blogging but from the tone of voice of the cop it’s more likely they just think Swymer is an asshole. If so, they sure got that right.
I’m happy he is retiring. Maybe he will answer some of the questions I asked him in response to his plethora of lies, and his empty and pathetic threat.
