this is a perfect description of what goes on here and with other forums----
I call them electronic "Rambo's".
No patience, quick to judge, not knowing the whole story, putting your two cents in without being involved in the issue at hand (uh...wait a minute, that would be what I'm doing right now----)
(Excuse me while I return to my previous programming......)

That is that Mason Fine guy who posts here sometimes as "surfridermason". He posts on Pelican and Reutter as Chesirugaree or some such nonesense. This is his M.O. I was high bidder on a late model 5 speed trans. w/ LSD one time. It was a no reserve auction and he pulled the auction because he didn't feel that the price was high enough. He is not someone I will ever do business with again. He likes to bad mouth the other 928 vendors. Poor form in my opinion.
Buyer beware!!
Buyer beware!!
I had previously asked him to cease and desist his parts sales business here on rennlist until he became a paid Sponsor.
Looks like he'll have to learn the hard way.

I ordered some used license plate lights from him, he said they were rust free and working, not so, they were nearly as bad as what I had, I didn't bother pursuing it for the few bucks I paid. Ended up getting the newer style plastic housed ones for GTS, From D.R....Lesson learned.

Hey Blitz, I'm pretty hard to offend but that sig pic is just makes me wanna puke... Could you cool it and post up a pic of a naked chick or something else (oh yeah thats not allowed, oh the irony) I hate being preachy and i'm far from a p/c kind of guy but i have a lot of black friends who would think that was in really bad taste as do I. Don't want people to think we're all a bunch of ignorant racists here. Thanks.
Wow, surfridermason banned for someone bringing up a sale from ebay?

OK, here's my conclusion:
Any act taken with the knowledge that it will demean or hurt someone is in poor taste. Such an act can be recognized by anyone, of any race, who understands the dynamic.

I have great respect for free speech and expression. While I'm glad he has the freedom to express his views, I'm glad I have the freedom to tell him I think it sucks and possibly get him to re-evaluate.
btw I have no problem w/ the political message

The primary means of achieving political advantage has always been to deamonize the opposition. We imported it from Europe 400 years ago, and lord knows who they stole it from. We all say we don't approve of it, and yet it proves effective, generation after generation. We are a disgusting species at some level.
