H411 is at it again! Perry Klaussen has posted another demeaning photo once again of Tony Soares and Michael Lenz on his web site. This time it was in a comment thread. The photo was submitted by a reader and as Mr. Klaussen has always maintained, he has full editorial control of his site to post or not to post. He chose to post.
To be honest with you, I really don't like going tit for tat like this but I'm sure Mr. Klaussen has a sense of humor. After all he was able to take of photoshop of me and make me fatter than I really already am. Is that possible? Yes, anything is possible with photoshop. Who else will be next in his photo shop smears? Or will it just stay focused on Tony and Michael. Perry Klaussen could find himself in one kind of pickle (pun intended).
Since Perry's targets seem to be fat people, dwarfs, quasi-giants (me), and any politician wearing a turban I feel obligated to go tit for tat on this one.

Here is another reader submission giving it back to the one that likes to dish it out:
"If yesterday's graphic attack on Tony was in horrible taste... today's was just MEAN and MALICIOUS and very gratuitous. He truly is obsessed with hurting Tony & Mike... the attached artwork tries to explain Perry's unnatural obsession w/these 2 men.
All the best, Graphix Avenger"
Original Post 4/30/2009:
Apparently the proprietor of Hoboken 411 will stoop to a level so low, he has no bounds. Yet again he has outdone himself. This morning he posted a mocked picture of Tony Soares climbing up a ladder on Micheal Lenz's back in response to Tony's claim he was too short to tear down signs. Tony Soares is no angel but mocking someone for dwarfism, c'mon. Now believe me Tony and Micheal have some very thick skin but I will never understand the obsession Perry Klaussen has with the character assassination attacks on these two men.
This photo was not my idea but it was sent in by a friend of Tony and Micheal who is fed up with the behavior of Perry Klaussen on his website and had this to say:
Please DO NOT use my name as the creator of the photoshop... but it wasdone in the spirit of payback since Perry just can't stop posting and photoshopping pics of Mike Lenz and Tony... and deleting posts of mine. I thought today's beauty was pretty f###ing disgusting, frankly. This one's for Tony & Mike! - "Graphix Avenger"
My comment: This photo strictly is about Perry (and not Beth Mason whose past record on fighting City Hall I respect) and allowing someone a chance to respond to his one sided handling of his site in their opinion. Also, since Perry Klaussen decided to include me in his photoshop in an unflattering pose (lets face it, I know I'm fat) I don't see a problem with allowing this to be put up on my site. ◦
