Letter to Two Dave Navarros
Dave Navarro wanted to be an Internet Marketer. Like lots of you people :: he wanted to be less of a cog in a big unthinking machine. He wanted to have more time for his family :: and more time for himself. He wanted increased certainty :: and less fear of the future. He wanted things to be different for his kids than things had been for him.
Internet Money!!!!!
FREEDOM!!!!!
It started like ten years ago :: books :: CD’s and DVD’s in overly large thud packaging … Tony Robbins.
Five years ago it started becoming the real deal. Time :: money :: and belief … ever more to the unicorns.
Take action :: action taker!!
But making money online is hard :: and Dave barely was. Then came Copyblogger :: because everybody needs a tribe … a place to fit in … a niche. And it’s easier to get ahead if you work together :: in fact :: as everyone eventually learns … it’s ALL about working together. You don’t need qualifications :: a product :: or something to say … you just need the right set of frenimies.
Dave thinks he’s building his ladder to the top :: but the rungs of B-team ladders are built to collapse so that the A-team’s dominance of the windfalls won’t be threatened.
Times are tough out there :: resources are scarce :: jobs are scarce :: confidence is scarce. But Dave Navarro puts all his faith in unicorns and quits his excellent mid-manager job at Lockheed Martin so he can team up with other “marketers” to sell people on the successfulness of the marketing that he’s never done.
Dave Navarro starts drinking. It’s hard to justify lies when you still have a heart :: or a soul. It’s a lot like work. Dave starts picking up other bad habits … bad habits that :: in the ethos of the group :: are not bad habits.
Freedom from keeping selfishness in check = not freedom.
Six months after walking out of Lockheed Martin :: Dave Navarro walks out on his wife of ten years … and his three kids. He takes nothing but the clothes on his back … and one laptop. He’s not heard from for months at time :: his behaviors are increasingly bizarre and out of touch with the man that he’s always been.
Dave’s oldest son Jacob :: in defense of his Mom and his family and his home and all the fucking things he’s ever known :: comes to Twitter …
@RockYourDay What are you doing? How can you do this to us? You are wrong, and you know it. Stop this shit and come home.
Dave describes this brave act as “hostility” :: and reacts in kind. But instead its a reflection of a smart and brave kid raised by a different Dave.
Naomi Dunford replies to Jacob via Facebook private chat.
Because as Jeff Walker :: hero to Brian Clark :: explained … you scrape off your family like poison if they won’t believe in your unicorn lies. And if you aren’t willing to scrape off your family … you deserve to lose. That is the message of this sick and twisted culture :: and it’s very real the way is soaks into people and eats away at their fundamental values.
Before Dave Navarro wanted to be an Internet Marketer :: he just wanted a place to belong. Cause like so many of the good people sucked into the dark vortex :: Dave Navarro came to scene of the manipulation game with pre-packaged vulnerabilities to manipulation.
You can read a story about Dave’s pre-unicorn life :: here :: in the archives of a Florida newspaper. Here’s the first sentence …
“When Anthony Navarro paid to have his wife killed, he hired an ex-Marine, a crack addict, a loose-lipped burglar and a New York honor student, among others.”
Roseanne Navarro was killed in front of her mother :: Anthony went on trial :: the siblings were split up … shit went from shitty to shittier.
Along with all the scars and insecurities :: Dave was left with one clear purposeful aim for his life … protect his own kids from the horror of a collapsing family. Give them the stable platform to stability that he didn’t get. And he was doing it goddammit :: he was totally doing it … defying the worst of odds … he was doing it.
But one lie is quickly one hundred :: and by the time you realize that’s it not just deception … but cult tactics … it’s too late and everything in your life is washed away. For NOTHING … for the ZERO percent chance that Dave Navarro had at making himself a success by swimming in the shark tank.
Now here’s Dave arguing over custody with Alison like Anthony and Roseanne in the 80′s :: with spider blight Naomi Dunford in the background … talking about fake death threats and craziness with no respect. With NO FUCKING RESPECT … for other people’s lives … and other people’s tears … and other people’s hard won gains.
Are you sure you want to be on the B-team?
Come back tomorrow and I’ll show you some of the A-team in action :: then I’ll ask you again ….
Are you sure you want to be on the B-team?
>> bleep bloop











Nice work on bringing some perspective. There is this weird limbo period where some of these scammers are simultaneously victim and predator.

He’s teasing all of us. And he’s teasing the baddies.
And they’re getting so riled up in their egos that they’re volunteering all kinds of dirt, thinking only of themselves.
I’m sure we will get our ittyspider shit storm. But there’s more to this than meets the proverbial “french for trade union.”

@Your Going to Say I’m Naomi,
Why are YOU here 24/7? If you are not Naomi then why is this so personal for you?
Before you waste your comment asking me the same I’ll answer now … “For the entertainment of course.”
Never heard of dumbford before these posts and don’t really care much about her.
But Salty’s blog is like watching people cained in public for their wrong doings.
Way better than a soap opera or Jersey Shore.
Plus I think what he is doing here will ultimately be taught in text books … especially if one of these wankers finally decides to sue him. It will help define 1st amendment rights and help others that want to express dissent have the ability to do so with confidence.
You should just chill out and get yourself some popcorn this is good stuff … unless of course you are a scammer (or Naomi).

Good grief.
There was this post today as well: http://ittybiz.com/sometimes-the-bad-guys-win/
What is upsetting about her post is she does not own up to the fact that they are indeed in a relationship. And even if they claim it was not an affair – it must have been an emotional one at least because you don’t leave your wife unless there’s been some sort of chat like “Hey, I think I want to be with you instead of her”.
Also, she thanks her colleagues for standing by her but his are not standing by him: they are the same group of people.
What is really disgusting is the last 2 lines:
“What I DO know is that Roseanne Navarro laid low and waited for it to pass.
She didn’t feed the trolls.”
You cannot compare your fiasco and the situation here on SD to that of the murder of a woman. That’s disgusting.
–
That being said, SD –> How do you know that account from “Jacob” wasn’t Anthony? Also, Anthony left this comment in your last post:
” And in David & my case, indeed, when I was 13 our mother felt her “needs” were more important than raising her family and she too left us children to fend for ourselves, as I helped raise my brother for several years alongside my father until I went off to college.”
So that does show that Anthony sides with his father – even now. Which given the murder and jail situation, I don’t truly understand.
–
Bottom line, I side with you SD, but I want to make sure you have all the facts. Which I’m sure you do.

I sure hope Anthony Jr. doesn’t plot to kill his brother’s “best friend” just like his father did. Wait … what?
Here’s the “side” I’m taking hotcakes :: Naomi Dunford is FINISHED in Interent Marketing. I thought I was going to have to do it with truths … but then she did it for me cause I called her fattie.
Calling a narcissist fattie has yet to fail … I almost don’t need to do anything else … fattie.

nice work dude…I like the way you tied everything together…
It explains why Naomi put herself in the victim post….and she obviously knew where this was going…..
and @Your Gonna Say I am Naomi…why did your precious Naomi put up an email only from Dave’s brother, but NOT put up the mysterious death threat emails…which her WHOLE fucking post was centered around…
Oh yeah….could it be because she read the post or the tweets about the FBI and terrorism….yeah could be….the threat seems to have softened as well…but you know…strange things like that happen when they are false….and used to play the victim card…

@Enlightened:
Why can’t we compare this situation to “that fiasco”? Roseanne’s situation started the same way as Dave’s — with a bunch of judgmental pricks who don’t respect a person’s right to divorce. It’s even the same family (in fact, another member with the SAME NAME) that started it, and now they’ve gotten a bunch of other people on their side to try and bring down the person they don’t want to let go. The largest difference between the two cases is that “Roseanne” is twice as many letters as “Dave.”
You can disagree with the value of Dave’s services — I certainly do — but supporting harassment and death threats is even less cool than providing advice of questionable utility.
Muchly debated. What do you think?

From my experience reading other stories here, I bet that this series is, yet again, about dishonesty and fleecing of customers.
The point of the story, or the shit storm as Salty would say, is yet to come.

It’s really a sha,e how these things perpetuate in families. That said, it seems like Naomi and Dave didn’t have an affair. Dave’s real mistress was the Internet dream.
That said, I’m not that interested in all this sex stuff, and looking forward to tomorrow. I have a feeling this all ties in to Brian Clark running his own French word for trade union and detailing the effects it has on the B-team. I care much more about the business practices than their seedy personal lives.

You also said you care “more about business practices than seedy personal lives.” You need to rethink that. Integrity is not some kind of bi-directional faucet.

@SD,
And I don’t mean to trivialize any of the things the Navarro family has been through, but you could condense this story to “man meets new woman on business trip, decides to abandon family” and you’d have one of the oldest stories in the book, yknow? And it wouldn’t be inaccurate, from what we’ve seen so far.
So when I say “sex lives,” I mean that I fail to see how that’s remarkable or related to the work that you do. If the dots connect to Dave leaving his family because they don’t want him to be a Copyblogger, that’s one thing. But a guy abandoning is family is sadly common.
Or maybe I should wait for the whole story before I speak.

You were doing such a good job until “fake death threats”.
Now you’ve gone and actually lied. You don’t know that it’s true that Naomi didn’t receive death threats, but you’re presenting it as fact.
And that, sir, is defamation of character. That, Mr. Droid, is libel. And you can go ahead and redact it if you want – the internet is forever, after all, isn’t it?
Lots of talk around here about “due diligence”. Have any of you done any, or are you just agreeing with Mr. Droid when he attacks people because it’s fun to sling mud and it’s gratifying to have a release for your frustrations?
Can you prove she didn’t receive death threats?
Can you prove Dave’s in a relationship with Naomi, “Enlightened”, or ever was?
Can any of you prove any of your allegations?
Do any of you actually know any of the actual back-story here, even second-hand? Mr. Droid sure doesn’t. All of his information is third-hand at best. Telephone was a fun game when we were eight, Mr. Droid. Let’s stop playing it now that we’re adults.
It is great fun to sling mud. The problem is, you end up covered in more of it than the person you’re slinging at.
Take care.
Muchly debated. What do you think?

@Oh, Salty…, The problem is not that SD is proving anything, but rather if Naomi’s going to say she’s received death threats, and then indict SD and his readers on her blog, saying they sent them, saying that they were going to kill her and anyone around her at a specific place and time, the burden of proof is ON HER. Not on SD.
She has yet to post any emails, and even admitted she hasn’t contacted legal authorities, yet she’s using names (Nathan Hangen, for one) and places in quite the libelous manner herself. If the things she says happened, she needs to prove them, publicly. Just as she’s stated them publicly.
When one cries wolf, and can’t prove it after having been called upon to do so, then it’s they who are to be assumed to be lying. Period.

@Huh?,
I read all of the comments here and on http://letterstodavenavarro.com
There were no death threats on either site.
If she received telephonic death threats, she may not be able to produce recordings. But it seems like she was suggesting written threats.
So she should produce the written threats by providing it or them to law enforcement. Or if she wants to wage the battle in the public arena, she should post the written and/or email threats.
Ever heard of the man confiscating a computer when executing a search warrant? It is amazing what a geek can find on a computer and on the intertubes.
That’s why I ain’t falling for her story. To be quite honest, I genuinely hope that she’s lying because nobody deserves to be victimized like that.
But, IMO, she’s a LIAAARRR!

The death threats are a lie … which I know for fact certain because her initial post laying out the “threats” relied on misquoting me … including two things I said publicly that didn’t sound even remotely threatening in context.
That makes her assertions not just lies … but idiotic lies. The proof of their falsity was embedded within the claims themselves.

But from your post – was the More Buyers program been completed or is it still unfinished? It’s my understanding that it was to be finished within a year and people paid monthly. These are exactly the type of things SD is likely getting at with his posts.

I know. I also know how the rumour mill works, thanks to all the private emails I’ve gotten lately. People have advised me to clear up anything personally, in case someone goes off on an investigative tangent.
It has been completed. It took longer then planned and those within it got a lot of value out of it. I know because I’d touch base with a lot of the people. The creating products that sell module got a lot of positive feedback.

@Oh, Salty…, My mistake on the not calling the cops thing. She snuck in that she did amongst a list of “I didn’t” and “I can’t” items. However, you’re clearly a complete idiot.
From http://ittybiz.com/sometimes-the-bad-guys-win/:
““Salty” takes the case.
He posts about Dave. He posts about me.
And then the death threats started coming.
I had stolen another woman’s husband. That was adultery. I have to die.
The products I sell are scams. That is lying. I have to die.
I hang out with other scammers. That is collusion. I have to die, and so do they.”
Show me where, on “Salty’s” site (this one, in case you’re that dumb), where anyone said “Naomi has to die.”
Show me where, anywhere, Naomi has posted emails from people who’ve said, “You have to die.”
Show me where, anywhere, Naomi has posted the email where she claims someone told her that if she showed up at a certain event that she, and all who surround her, will be MURDERED.
Those statements are libelous. Why she felt the need to bring in Nathan’s name, or the name of the event she’s supposed to meet her demise at, is ridiculous. She’s drawing in people and places that have NOTHING to do with this, or her. Nothing. Shit, according to that post, she’s equating herself to Dave’s mom, who was murdered, so that’s the only tie-in I can see. She thinks she’s going to be murdered for some strange reason. Get off the PCP, Naomi. There are no monsters under your bed. People just think you suck, that’s all.

The affairs :: and the lies :: and the running around burning through money like the Italian government … are all kind of part of this story because of who Dave and Naomi held themselves out to be :: gurus … and motivators … and knower of secret secrets. Both of them used their family situation in their marketing and on their blogs. Naomi’s husband and kid are still on her about page. Then they vanish into nowhere after making some dubious public appearances. People want to talk about it … but can’t … because dissent is forbidden. So now … a year later by the time I touch it … it blows up all over the place.
So people are welcome to talk about whatever they need to talk about here … BUT … I care about how fraud destroys lives. That is what I write about :: that is what this story is about. These posts are exactly like the other 375 posts … anti-fraud … anti-cult … anti-crime.

Have to say a few things:
1. There is nothing wrong with leaving your wife it is sad it didn’t work out
2. It is sad that things are screwed up with the family but that is not out of the ordinary
3. Every situation is unique and people should not assume there are rights and wrongs about the breakup of a family unit.
Most of the people that these somewhat normal things happen to are not being suckered by cult like marketing techniques.

@Neil, sometimes marriages do end. Often people don’t try hard enough to stay together. Sometimes it is best that a marriage ends. It is, however, unforgivable to abandon one’s children emotionally and financially. Regardless of whether the mother or father is doing the abandoning…
Cult-like tactics suggesting that one “scrape off one’s family” if they don’t support one’s unicorn chasing or whatever add another really icky layer to all of this. This does not sound like Dave’s was a run of the mill “irreconcilable differences” type of divorce.

@Anna,
One only has to read some of David’s brother’s letters to see that he is a religious kook and a zealot with a controlling desire to pull David back into his black-and-white Christianist cult world view.
Who knows the real reasons that David left his family? His meddling brother doesn’t, and it is none of his holier-than-thou business, frankly. Nor mine. Nor yours.
If I had a brother like David’s brother, I would want to get as far from him as possible. He is a controlling pompous religious zealot who would feel perfectly at home in the Taliban, if he believed in a different dead cult leader.
Shittybiz and David’s public lies and IM scams should be screamed from the rooftops, but after reading about his father and his mother’s murder, I can only feel sorry for his (and his brother’s) personal life. It is very hard to heal from childhood trauma like that. Very hard.

whattheeverlovingfuck does any of this have to do with Naomi?
Dave leaves his wife, he has a hostile moment with his son, he doesn’t feel safe. So where does Naomi fit in? If she’s not having an affair why is she pulling up shop and going on the run? Why is she having a private conversation (that Dave should have held) with Dave’s son?
WHAT DOES NAOMI DUNFORD HAVE TO DO WITH DAVE’S MARITAL ISSUES?
And why is she writing his story on her blog.
Why is she in the middle of all this. If she’s not having an affair and they’re just friends, why is she such a big part of it? If the murderous Navarro pattern is being repeated, than it’s against Dave, not Naomi so why is she even involved?
Something stinks.

Until we all get to see some sort of verification that these alleged death threats occurred, it seems that you are just digging a deeper hole for yourself.

Hi,
So… I first heard about this-whole-thing from a link in a tangential tweet from an RT of someone else on Twitter.
It took me Naomi’s page and I got her side. I was all fired up. I mean, I already know that all these Internet Marketing Gurus have a scammy aspect to them, but she’s talking about–you know–DEATH threats.
And, yes, I’m well aware that someone like Naomi that makes bold, semi-unsupportable claims and overcharges for merchandise as a rule might easily make a false, or at least exaggerated claim of death threat–but still, ya know DEATH THREAT.
Anyway. I’ve seen your site now as well. And Naomi made her second post. And you have made yours.
It seems to me this is a big, fat case of Dirty Laundry. But there is the nagging problem of Anthony Sr. having COMMITTED CONSPIRACY TO HAVE HIS WIFE KILLED. *And* he succeeded. And now you find yourself in a position of defending Anthony Jr. who seems to indicate that he thinks his dad did right having Roseanne killed–or at least that it was appropriate for her to “pay for her sins.” It makes Anthony Jr. look dangerous.
As to Naomi’s accusation of death threats: when I re-read her entries closely, I don’t see a place where she explicitly said that you, SD, sent her a death threat. Maybe I missed it, I dunno.
But please consider this: Owing to the overall tone of your site and the kind of comments people post, isn’t it possible that someone, having read where you called her a “cow” and all those other mean, nasty things–isn’t it possible that one or more persons from your site might have sent one or more emails to Naomi threatening her life?
One more note as to the tone of the site: Ok so you say you write in this–let’s say–”colorful” way because it’s selfish and that’s the same way the self-proclaimed gurus write? *scratch head* hrm. Ok, that *might* make sense, but I’m not following so far. In any case, forever writing in that tone makes you look like a dick. And, while I’m sure it’s likely to increase your readership, it’s more like that many members of your loyal fan base will be… well they’ll be people that think it’s totally ok to write mean, nasty shit about people.
I mean–what I’m trying to say… Whenever this whole thing–I mean the Naomi-Dave-Anthony thing and also the Internet Marketing and all the rest–whenever it finally blows up, it could just be that you find yourself very much a part *of* it instead of being just an impartial commentator on the *outside* of it.

Dave’s brother is pretty clearly crazy and leaves a litany of threatening and aggressive statements on his website. He also quite clearly viewed his mother being murdered as what she deserved for deserting her family, and his uber-Chistian fanaticism is frankly a little frightening. If I were Naomi or Dave I would be concerned about my safety as well. It’s obvious that she took things out of context here, and I for one find it hard to believe her, but at the same time I’m not sure it’s a good idea to be inflaming and encouraging a man who is clearly not mentally stable (the brother). I understand wanting to stretch this out for traffic sake, but perhaps it would be the safer thing to do to stop stretching it out and just post whatever evidence it is you say you have. I know you want to clear your name, but the brother seems like a cult member and it is possible that he’s getting his church to send her threatening messages and it’s making her paranoid. Daves business is certainly gone now and I suspect this publicity isn’t what Naomi ever wanted. They’ve already been driven through the mud, and any intelligent person is going to be able to see their true characters without us subjecting them to any more ridicule and shame.

I’ve also been wondering if the tale of Dave’s forced commitment at his brother’s hand is true, or just more lies and exaggerations. If it is true, that does add another layer to this sordid tale. It doesn’t make Dave and Naomi’s deceptions or the Internet marketing scams any less abhorrent, but it does make the story even more complex.
I’m no fan of organized religion or what appears to me to be religious self-righteousness. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth. On the other hand, one person’s self-righteousness is another person’s expression of sincere faith, and neither one necessarily makes a person dangerous, even though Naomi is clearly implying as much in her latest post.
In any case, if she is indeed getting death threats for committing adultery, as she has been spinning the tale in her most recent installment, it seems to me that would be from the self-righteous religious factions, NOT from the snarks, critics, and haters of scams who frequent Salty’s realm.
With this post, however, it seems that the little robot is working his way back to the real issue: Internet marketing scams. I’m sorry these issues were tainted by the family soap opera, but that seems to be Naomi’s doing for the most part.
The misogyny angle that Naomi has tried to play is, as I noted previously, bogus. I don’t think fattie jokes are funny, whether they’re directed to men or women, but in the context in which Salty is making them, it’s not a gender thing.
Also, as I noted in a previous comment, and as several others have also said, I’m all for women advancing in business, and I recognize that misogyny is real and exists in many forms. In fact, it seems the Syndicate circle whom Naomi considers to be her allies is a hotbed for vicious behind-women’s-backs misogyny. But it seems to me that Naomi is clouding the issues and compromising women who really are in danger. (By the way, I’m REALLY disappointed in Kevin Smith for rallying to her side.)
Family stories are complex, and the issues are rarely all black-and-white. One black-and-white issue is that it’s wrong to have someone murdered for “selfishness,” as Anthony Sr. apparently did when his wife left. But it’s also wrong for Naomi to exploit this past tragedy, which is what she seems to be doing.
Anyway, I’m glad Salty is getting back to the real issues: the scams.

@Cosmic Connie, you wrote, “I don’t think fattie jokes are funny, whether they’re directed to men or women, but in the context in which Salty is making them, it’s not a gender thing.”
I don’t think they’re funny, either; and you’re absolutely right. SD’s tactic is going at narcissists where it hurts. If this were a hate blog, and not a blend of investigative journalism/advocacy/Lenny Bruce, the powerful & wealthy marketing gurus would scoff and ignore. (Does Dick Cheney care if he’s called a fatty? No, he waterboards.) But the gurus are not powerful & wealthy, just insecure scammers living from infoproduct to infoproduct. They cover the sham with gross self-obsession, saying, “Hey, I’m a marketing genius worth $500/hour. My gut’s saying I’m not so I better blog more to convince myself and others. There! VALUE”
Which is why “fatty” gets them so angry, and so eager to reframe the conversation as sexism, religious oppression, and cyberbullying (If their l33t hackorz NLP skillz can pattern redirect your .htaccess brainfile). But real cyberbullying victims are private people, usually kids, getting piled on in some social network. ND, DN, and the rest of the gurus are public figures. They chose to build careers on their public faces. They’re not famous, just “internet famous,” but we all know they’d be on Oprah if they could (like James Arthur Ray).
I personally don’t care about any affairs, sad though they are. I do care about the self-deception, outlined so well above, a Dave Navarro goes through in leaving his family to go deeper into the fairy economy of Syndicate-style internet marketing. More, please.

@Slowly Waking, I agree: It’s the self-deception, not the affairs, that matter as an illustration of the destructive effects of New-Wage delusions. I generally don’t care who’s boinking whom; it’s rarely relevant, unless the actions of the boinkers are directly contrary to what they are teaching. (If they’re having affairs while making money teaching about marital fidelity, then it’s relevant. If they’re selling infoproducts about having an awakened relationship and yet their own intimate relationship is in shambles and they put the move on every young woman who bats an eyelash at them, that’s relevant. And so on.)
Anyway, I’m glad Salty’s on the job exposing the real scams, and I only hope his voice doesn’t get drowned out in the sympathy rally that Naomi is gathering around her.
Anthony Navarro Reply:
September 1st, 2011 at 8:57 am
@Sundog,
Hey there, SunDog…
To clarify, Dave was not committed because of religious beliefs… This was in the first months of his abandonment and disappearance from “the grid” as it were, when he flat out disappeared: not responding to calls, emails, and was basically “on the run”, totally unlike his prior life as a loving father, devoted husband, and up and coming entrepreneur. Also long before anyone can accuse us of any “harassing” behavior. – our brother was gone, and we did not know where, or why. One day we got the call he was gone, and we counld not understand why.
At the time he started resurfacing, multiple factors were in play in our decision to have him evaluated, including:
– David’s physical condition was deteriorating (unkempt appearance, smell)
– David’s erratic and paranoid behavior (driving like he’s trying to shake a tail, never sleeping the the same place twice every night)
– Traveling the world, not communicating with anyone, spending tens of thousands of dollars per month while neglecting his business… what was he doing? Was he going to blow it all then end it all? We just…did…not…know…
It all seemed to point to a self destructive spiral – we were worried to death over him… Again, this was in the beginning when we didn’t know anything…
Taking his “abandoning his family” out of the equation, his sister and I feared for his safety, literally, thought he may die if we did not intervene, and felt he needed to be evaluated, psychologically and medically. Friends and family with EMT, police, and medical backgrounds advised us that his behaviors were all indicators of drug addiction. – We feared for his life.
The last thing we wanted was more conflict, but we felt our window of opportunity was closing fast, that David was a threat to himself.
I know Dave is feeding the world his side of the story, but those first months were the scariest when all we saw was someone destroying himself – with no warning and no reason.
Once Dave and Naomi started their resurfacing, of course now the game has changed – they are using this early event as evidence for a long pattern of hate and abuse… but this was the first, desperate act of a brother and sister trying to find out what had happened to their ‘baby brother.’
And having him evaluated was not taken in a vacuum – but was bathed in advice from others, and in prayer, and all agreed that time was short if indeed, Dave was caught up in drugs or a professional breakdown causing this radical change in behavior.
He is still my brother. Is family may hate what he is doing but we do not hate *him* – I still believe the underneath he is the man he was, but something happened. He is a victim.
Take care…

@Anthony Navarro,
I don’t blame Dave a bit for not responding to you. After reading your letters to him, it is perfectly understandable. And your trying to have him involuntarily committed does fit a pattern of abuse that is perpetrated over and over again by religious zealots like you when they feel like they are losing control.
The fact that he was evaluated professionally and released immediately shows that your efforts to incarcerate him were based on lies, and no one should believe anything you say regarding Dave ever, including anything that you just wrote in this last post.
You’re the one who should be evaluated. As far as I can see, you may be a bigger scam artist than your brother.

Anthony’s letters and writings are characteristic of the way Christians often talk to each other … all groups have their own languages.

Dave’s brother is clearly insane, but not in the way you believe. He’s insane because he’s the embodiment of the father in the parable of the prodigal son.
Where you see menace, I see love.
Where you see complicity in his mother’s death, I see man pointing out how quickly things can escalate in domestic disputes.
And puh-leez, don’t tell me you’re the only human with ESP who can read the subtleties inside the mind of Dave or his brother.

Too bad you don’t feel as strongly about personal responsibility.

Anthony is trying to sell a scam, too, only his is 2000 years old.
Anthony is a religious kook. The sincerity of his beliefs does not give him the right to foist them on his brother or anyone else, such as trying to get David involuntarily committed to a mental institution. How can you defend that? Divorce happens to be legal in this country (much to Anthony’s chagrin, I am sure).
You don’t need to defend Anthony to go after Dave and ShIttyBiz. His public words and actions are those of a fanatic controlling person who uses his so-called religious authority to try to impose his judgement and will on other people, in this case, his brother.

@anonone, For the record, divorce is permitted in the Bible. Jesus’ teaching in Matthew was a clarification about how divorce should be handled. In fact, he was affirming the law in Deuteronomy.
Here’s a short piece Anthony Jr. (and all Christians) should read:
The Bible Says: Divorce and Remarriage is Not Adultery
http://gods-kingdom-ministries.org/COLDFUSION/booklet.cfm?PID=21
Anthony Jr. strikes me as being a sincere person. But he’s also bought into the traditions of men that organized religion teaches — yet are nowhere to be found in the Bible.

Yep, I agree with you.
Hell (i.e., eternal torment) is another one of men’s traditions that is not in the Bible. But men found the threat of hell convenient for controlling people. The tradition is with us even today.

So far, Salty just wrote the post about Naomi claiming death threats and stated that she fabricated the story. He then went out and showed the specific statements she made & explained how it was taken entirely out of context and was never a threat at all.
@Oh, Salty, we have already seen the evidence because we read Salty’s posts before Naomi took small lines out of context to pretend Salty was threatening her. We recognized his words and remembered (and then were able to check – by coming back here) that she was making things up.

Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me” Matthew 10:35-37
And speaking of “unicorn lies,” the Bible is one of the longest running and successful Information Marketing scams in history and serves as a model to scam artists like Walker and Clark (as you showed).

You must be part of IM shovel selling cult, because those Bible verses are not at all saying the same thing as Jeff Walker.
In context, those verses are warnings in contrast to never put any fallen man/woman before a perfect God.
Sidenote: If you do not believe in a moral absolute, on what do you base your morals? The shifting sands of the current cultural consent? If so, you’re just expressing an opinion and have no consistent, logical basis to be morally outraged over anything. Think about it. Seriously.
Jeff Walker is not God (although he and his brainwashed followers may think so) but following him and his French for Trade Union buddies are leading far too many people to financial and personal destruction.

Do I have moral absolutes? Yes, how about that slavery is absolutely wrong?
Yet the Bible is full of handy advice from God such as how to sell your daughter into slavery and how to beat your slaves, so don’t come talk to me about so-called moral absolutes or perfect Gods. And did the cult-leader Jesus ever speak out against slavery as a fundamental evil of his time? No, not once.
Anthony is just another religious whack-o trying to force his brand of religious quackery on his brother using love in the disguise of veiled threats. And the internet marketers, like Jeff Walker, use the same techniques to brain-wash their followers and take their money as Churches have used for centuries. The Droid, perhaps inadvertently, pointed out a great example.

Ryan Healy Reply:

@anonone, Slavery is only absolutely wrong according to man’s “wisdom.” Here’s the Bible’s perspective:
When a person steals, in most cases the law requires him to pay double restitution.
So if he steals $1,000, he must repay $2,000.
If he pays double restitution, he has made the victim whole again, and the crime is no longer counted against him.
But if the thief does not have $2,000 to pay the double restitution, he then becomes a slave of the victim until he works off his debt.
When he has repaid the debt through his labor, he is released from slavery and is a free man again.
The Bible teaches slavery as a means for restoring the victims of injustice.
Man’s logic says this: “Let’s throw the thief in jail. The victim never gets his money back. And the victim must then pay taxes to support the thief in jail.”
In man’s system of so-called justice, the victim gets robbed twice!

You absolutely know slavery is wrong despite your denial of an absolute authority for morality in the first place (i.e. God)?
Ryan has already done an excellent job of explaining the biblical context so he’s essentially given you the answer even if you don’t see it right in front of you.
Let me ask it this way then:
“On what foundational basis do you know ANYTHING absolutely?”
Actually, just so we don’t end up highjacking this thread on a tangent that might detract from SD keeping the heat on B-Team scammers, maybe we should take this worldview discussion elsewhere (perhaps Ryan’s or Connie’s blog if they’re interested).

You’re missing my point. I never said you didn’t have a personal moral foundation.
Any “personal” moral foundation in the absence of a universal absolute is by definition arbitrary, an opinion.
Meaning, if there truly is no universal absolute standard then the reality is that everybody’s “personal” moral foundation is simply that … personal (i.e. not universal).
So when you become righteously indignant over the “wrong” actions of another you are at odds with your professed worldview and opposing yourself in your own thinking.

@anonone, Jesus was quoting Micah 7 in Matthew 10. In context, Jesus was talking about the price of following him… that by following him, it would turn family members against each other.
It’s true, isn’t it? Put one believer in a family of non-believers… or one non-believer in a family of believers… and it causes conflict.
The point Jesus is making is that he is a polarizing figure.
To be a follower of Jesus means you have to be prepared to follow him no matter the cost… even if it means “losing” family members who no longer want to associate with you. This is consistent with Paul’s teaching about being “unequally yoked.”

2) Your understanding of the Biblical god’s laws on the treatment of slave is wrong. Just read Exodus, for numerous examples. If your god thinks slavery is fine, then have fun believing that. Fortunately we have secular laws that make it illegal.
3) The Biblical Jesus was just using the same techniques that cult leaders have used for centuries to keep people from their families who might otherwise talk some sense to them.
It isn’t surprising or a coincidence that IM scam artists are doing and saying the same things today.

Thanks for that one @Stop the madness … seriously appropriate.

I encourage you to open both those links in new tabs at the same time, as I did. The videos auto-start, so you’ll hear two Brendon Burchards talking over each other. It creates a beautiful, narcissistic word salad. If somebody added a backbeat, it could go toe-to-toe with Lydia Lunch or Psychic TV any day.

You want to retweet something retweet this because it’s as close to the truth as you’re going to get.

Another gem from the mouth of Naomi:
“(Naomi’s busybody note:I have a few things to add. One, generally, when I’m attacked, I let the attacker do his or her thing and burn out. I don’t feel the need to wave my gun around saying, “Don’t YOU attack ME, motherf*cker!!!” Maybe that’s just me.”
Oh shit…she’s got a gun?

On this post, http://skepchick.org/2011/08/ai-death-threats-and-hate-crimes/, I had to laugh at this brilliant comment by mrmisconception (who blogs at – deep breath – http://mrmisconception.blogspot.com/) in regards to the Dunford/Navarro saga:
The more I look at it the more I believe that this is all a hoax marketing ploy scam.
The brother who so desperately wants him to come home can’t stop mentioning Dave’s Twitter address, or upcoming events, or his Facebook page and everyone who posts there has a suspiciously similar style.
The kicker is that on Nov 14th (a very buzy day for the site) his brother directs Dave to Ms. Dunford’s website.
.
It’s starting to smell like scamburgers.

@SD, Wow. If I was ever inclined to hang out with atheists, reading those comments would cure me. What a load of foaming at the mouth reactionist hate and bile. I wonder if the majority of them spit when they talk. They go on about “free thought” and questioning things, but none of them bothered to question Naomi Dunford’s lies. Maybe since they don’t believe they can go to hell, that forum is a self-created subsitute for it.

Oh, look. Paul Myers (evil scumbag) is, hard to believe, an Associate Professor in the Biology Department at the University of Minnesota at Morris. Sucking on the government tit and spitting the milk back on the same people who paid for it.
Apparently in his own asshole circle he has a reputation as an aggressive, in your face anti-religion bile spewer:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PZ_Myers
“He is widely regarded as a confrontationalist.”
Translation: smarmy, narcissistic, total fucking asshole.
I wonder if the University of Minnesota and Myers’ coworkers there endorse Paul Myers’ attacking victims using his nasty little shit-blog and referring to them as “demented fuckwits?” Pretty deplorable if the University supports that.

@SD, Lots of fundie Christians are very nice. Especially when you’re an advocate for them.
Reading your comment, I thought you were going to say “in spite of the stressful and bizarre Christian ideologies blaming his mother for her own murder.”

@SandDune, atheists can be just as hypocritical as the very religious. I find PZ Myers to be as polarized and biased as an extreme fundamentalist. All he’s done is replace the biblical god with a scientific god. It results in the same narrow viewpoint that taints how they interpret what they see/hear and in the individual being far more certain of their correctness than they should be. For example, the Anthony Navarro quote getting simplified into “blaming his mother for her own murder.” Nowhere does Anthony say that. His actual words could be interpreted multiple ways…so either read more of the site with an open mind to gain a better understanding of him or ask the guy clarifying questions, but don’t assume you KNOW what he feels about a very complex family situation from one paragraph.

@Shorty, I haven’t accused anybody of being hypocritical.
I think A. Nav holds beliefs that are frankly awful: logically, morally and in terms of communicating with his brother.
If somebody sent me a tirade that used Bible quotes to argue that I was going to Hell – like my murdered mother – because I got a divorce, I might not be best pleased. Certainly not persuaded.

@Shorty, Excellent observation. Paul Myers is the extreme opposite of what he claims to hate, blinded by his own arrogance, fanatacism, and general disrespect for others.
He is no different from any extremist, except that he broadcasts and promotes incite and intolerance in a society where he appeared, uninvited, long after its foundational principles and majority view were established.
Myers is like someone who invites himself to your party, then stands before you insulting your wife and children, while simultaneously urinating on your feet and encouraging the thugs he brought with him to do the same.
There’s nothing honorable or respectable about his extremism or bullying, it just shows him to be a vile, egotistical bastard.
“Why would you start a “war” with Myers?”
because it’s what his fans want.
and, good luck with it. I look forward to the amusement this will create for maybe up to a week even! Better men(?) than Salty (not a compliment) have tried and beaten themselves on the rocks of that shore.
but then, nothing stops internet asswipes from thinking they actually can rule the world to impress the rubes.
I’ll be getting my popcorn, and hoping it doesn’t run out before Salty’s impotent threats do.
