Candidate Peck wrote of the Facebook hate site that supports Candidate Lakernick:
“The disgusting site thrives on lies, personal smears, obscene language and sexual innuendo to attack women, past directors and even current director Steve Jacobs. The attacks against me have been vicious. These board members socialize with its administrator, blurring the line between public duty and private vendetta.” What does the Admin of that Facebook hate site write about when not writing vile, vulgar comments about women in Ocean Pines? He also writes disgusting and incorrect stuff about other people and organizations like the OPVFD. To quote the hate site Admin’s own words: Ocean Pines Fire Police. Greetings one and all ….. I'm wondering why we are paying for the Fire Police. Totally ridiculous. Only happens here on the Eastern Shore. We have a couple of old dudes, directing traffic around fire scenes with so much authority they act like old dudes looking for authority. Angry, authoritarian, old bitches. I'm an old dude. I don't take to aggressive authority.......especially from old dudes wearing blue jeans and diapers. Moved here 8 years ago from the second largest county in Maryland. None of us on the western shore had fire police. Total waste of resources. In fact, since living here, I feel no connection to the Ocean Pines VFD. I know, I Know, l'm gonna piss people off. Two years ago I connected the former chief with the breed litter of my English Cream Golden Retriever. I gave him a crate for his pup, a gift card for his pup and attempted to drop them off at the Ocean Pines North Station. No one was there. Empty. Went back that evening…....empty. Now, they want to enlarge the South Station. Total bullshit. We don't need an enlarged south station. We need common sense. Living on the Western shore, Catonsville, we had a population of 42,000 and one firehouse. We survived and they still do in 2025. Ocean Pines has a population of 12,000 and that's seasonal. We don't need two firehouses. They bill you for an ambulance call. Doubt me, let them show up. It's cheaper to call UBER. I'm not busting on OPVFD I'm just calling them out. We don't need an expanded station. ********** To repeat: This disgusting hate site would be of zero interest except for the board members, past board members, and committee members who LIKE what the hate site Admin posts.

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: As I stated at the Candidate’s Forum, not agreeing 100% with the Board Majority brings swift backlash, and now you personally are witnessing it firsthand. This spiteful brand of politics is a stain on our community’s integrity and should be rejected by anyone who truly values honor and respect; however, as you noted, current board members Stuart Lakernick (and wife Esther Diller), Rick Farr, John Latham, Elaine Brady, parliamentarian/past president Doug Parks and Election Committee Chair Steve Ransdell have “liked” posts on a brazenly hateful Facebook page .(Incredulously, Ransdell and Diller launched an anti-bullying facebook page a couple of years ago yet participate and post on the hateful site) The disgusting site thrives on lies, personal smears, obscene language and sexual innuendo to attack women, past directors and even current director Steve Jacobs. The attacks against me have been vicious. These board members socialize with its administrator, blurring the line between public duty and private vendetta. You have referred to it as some board members being “obsessed” with me. I think their actions would be the same towards any homeowner who dares to disagree. Despite these attacks, ridiculous threats of cease-and-desist letters and press releases, I will continue to advocate for Ocean Pines. |
