In Response To: Re: Jason, how is the USAPL going to clean up (Jason Burnell)

You are right, Jason. I have always been the first one to walk away or take the higher road (and have been expected to), but I always felt there needed to come a time when some measure of the same medicine should be given back. We are not called to be doormats. You'll notice that many of us have taken that first step, but the bad feelings are still there - because the other side of the equation never changes their attitude and keeps re-opening the wounds. I watch the same people sling mud (nice term) at others all the time on forums. It's sad nobody has ever fought back in a firm way - sort of like enabling a group of grade school bullies to throw their weight around.

Getting back to the original question of this thread... USAPL is going to have to clean up by not being passive. As I said, I know things will not always have to be this way. Thanks for your feedback, understanding, and for your forum. Happy Thanksgiving, Deepsquatter!
