*******:
You never cease to amaze me....in case of an issue like this coming up, I called you through my conference bridge which has the ability to record calls...I have a complete recording of the call you and I had. I am more than happy to provide that email to any and all individuals that would be interested in hearing it so that they can see that there are absolutely zero threats made to you in any way, shape or form. If you are going to tell lies about the conversation, then please be prepared for me to post the conversation on line and then point everyone I know to it so they can hear it for themselves. We will let the folks figure out if the comments about "Granddad" and your reaction to them mean anything or not.
I did not call you to start a war...do not try to start one and tell a bunch of lies. All I wanted to know is why I was banned. That is it...if you want to make more out of this than that, it is all on you.
Live and let live...otherwise that recording as well as the ones I made of the two owners meeting you guys used my bridge for will go up for anyone that wants to listen to them...and they can then compare what was said there to what has been said on the forum.
Just let things alone...alright? Do not make more of this than it is with lies.
The law in Georgia as it pertains to recoding phone calls
Secretly recording or listening to a conversation held in a private place, without the consent of all parties, whether carried out orally or by wire or electronic means, is a felony invasion of privacy under Georgia law. Ga. Code Ann. § 16-11-62. Violation of the statute carries a penalty of imprisonment for not less than one nor more than five years or a fine not to exceed $10,000.00, or both. Ga. Code Ann. § 16-11-69. However, the law expressly provides that it does not prohibit a person who is a party to a conversation from recording, and allows recording if one party to the conversation has given prior consent. Ga. Code Ann. § 16-11-66. See also Malone v. State, 541 S.E.2d 431 (Ga. Ct. App. 2000).
It is also illegal for any person to divulge or distribute to any unauthorized person or authority the content or substance of any private message, regardless of whether it is intercepted lawfully or unlawfully.
However, the Court of Appeals of Georgia has held that the statute does not prohibit parents from monitoring or intercepting their minor children’s phone conversations for the purpose of ensuring the welfare of the minor child. Bishop v. State, 252 555 S.E.2d 504 (Ga. Ct. App. 2001).
Use of a hidden camera “without the consent of all persons observed, to observe, photograph, or record the activities of another which occur in any private place and out of public view― is illegal as well. Ga. Code Ann. § 16-11-62(2).
