Chilling calls rattle residents

The New Providence couple got a phone call from a stranger in the middle of the night.

It might have been AMWAY.

I was anti-Obama before It was cool.

being anti-Obama is actually not cool..

We're cowering, again. If the SOB has your phone number, he can secure your address. Using the same language he uses, invite him over. When he arrives, take him to the cellar, blow his "F"ing a$$ into the next block. But make sure you shoot him in the face, not the back. Easier to wash the remaining parts down the cellar drain, rather than clean the living room. Case solved! Sorry for you folks who do not have cellars.

Ok, but my neighbor got his car "keyed" all around the bumper sticker which stated:
"OBAMA"...maybe not cool, but it could prove to be very costly for US, in more ways than one!
We'll soon see how cool "it is" or "is not"!

Further investigation has since revealed that the calls were coming from inside the house.

Awww, comon...tomorrow's Halloween. Somebody had to.

I'm so confused! In another thread about the Paranormal I posted a direct quote from the Wizard of Oz saying, "I do believe in spooks,...I do, I do, I do ..." (the Cowardly Lion). Some poster jumps me by saying "enough of those racial slurs. Call them Afro-Americans". So now, I guess, Halloween is not the spookiest night of the year, but the most Afro-American night of the year. You see why I'm confused? HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

I'm confused.

...How is this news???

There is a service you can use to make your calls look like they are coming from somewhere else and alter voices...

Trick or treat? Halloween prank? radical politics? do not call list? SCREEN (answer machine or caller ID first) after 9PM please report any number or call.
most do not matter-... if you are driving and answering a cell phone, just don't do that either -Please!

[doesnt matter]

same thing has been happening to my grandmother, somebody out there really needs to have some sex! must be someone thats ugly with no life

The Library, in order to save $$$ went to a VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol)phone system. The good- it is cheaper. The bad- sound quality is not as good AND because calls are now routed over the internet they can easily be hacked, listened in on, etc. As we move toward a more digital world the easier it will be for people to invade our privacy- examples: cell phones, VoIP, DVR's- you think Comcast doesn't track your watching habits? Google, Microsoft (Bing search engine), the list goes on.
For those of you that have read the book- welcome to 1984!

They need to get these people & put them in their place. I would never take it lightly cause when you let your defense down things might just happen.
I would probably be prepared for the unexpected & if they would try to rob me I would be ready for them with a Smith & Wesson right at their face. The last laugh would be on them.

It really sucks to be a black man in this country.

Why does it always have to do with one certain color? What about white.....asians.....Jews so on and so forth. I'm tired of hearing it's all about a certain color. Try to be more diversified and get over one color cause there's alot more colors than the one you mention and alot more problems in this world than saying what you just said. There is discrimination on whites and other nationalities in this country. It's time that people quit being only one sided in this world.
