[QUOTE="Outlaw6.0, post: 834781, member: 23486"] Konrad, I applaud your approach to the matter, I sincerely appreciate being able to discuss a rather volatile topic such as this w/o it turning into a pie fight. For the most part, I agree with what you’ve said. I don’t however, believe that particular photographic evidence be omitted due to what amounts to fear of retaliation and/or public backlash. I believe, as posted before, common sense & discretion go a LONG way toward protecting one’s posterior. As you’ve pointed out (quite well I might add) is that common sense is so rare it should be officially classified as a Super Power. Bubba does just as much damage to our sport as he does to embrace it; of that I am most certain. I/we deal with these idiots on a regular basis & most unfortunately, they multiply. [U]Note[/U]: I’ve tried hard to not make this a political or moral/ethical post; we’ll see what Len thinks. I see & believe that those of opposite thinking have adopted, to great success, the approach that you seem to be vehemently discouraging. We’re here, we’re ……umm, errr…. Get used to it, simple arrogance. It seems to be perfectly acceptable to ram a certain agenda down the throat an opponent; as long as you’re advocating a “right” of some sort. Whether or not that particular "right" infringes on the "rights" of others is of little consequence it seems. Being patronized by a society that can barely tie its own shoes would be farcical if it were not for the continual assertion (and general consensus) that a round peg will indeed, fit into a square hole. They know not what they speak, as usual, & they don’t care. I for one, cannot surrender my moral standing in exchange for being accepted as one of the “cool kids”. I’d might instead chose to be hung, drawn & quartered (punishment for treason, old England). I understand I’ve been a bit primeval in my rebuttal however I, among other, have come to the point where a “Not One Inch Further” mindset is becoming more prevalent. In the end, we are the champions & emissaries of our sport & of our culture. Without us, our sport is most assuredly predestined for termination. We must choose our battles wisely just as sure as we must maintain a constant presence of force, assuring our opposition that we will not be driven or beaten into submission. I sometimes feel we are on the verge of a catch 22 scenario. If we’re too quiet, we will be steamrolled as a piece of road kill on the road towards Utopia. If we yell too hard; what may come of that? I don’t know but, it can’t be much worse than what we [U][B]KNOW[/B][/U] is coming down the road. I believe it was Dylan Thomas who wrote “Rage, rage against the dying of the light”. I think I know what he meant. t [/QUOTE]
