I read about the other reported TJ robbery on this website from a few days ago and was quite appalled how a few of you doubted it ever happened and
made rude comments about members of the Bloodydecks fishing website (I could not find that thread so am commenting on this similar event). Other than
allowing words that a lot of of us use in our daily conversations with others, it's just a fishing forum for us to use to pass on information from
fishing mainly in socal and baja but has expanded to norcal and the east in recent years. Shame on those of you who made those comments without
knowing what you are talking about. i thought you were taught better or are older than your words make you out to be. Now about the other robbery.
The original thread must have been removed by the BD's moderator because it's no longer there so I did not read it. 2nd hand info says it was in very
bad taste but that's a credit to the BD's moderator for removing it.
Again shame on you simple minded people who are quick to judge others especially by the website they are a member to!

Howat, I never doubted the veracity of the incident, I was however, offended by both the crude language and the extremely derogatory & racial
comments made by follow-up posters on BD.
Personally, I find it very interesting that you'd attempt to "shame" people for honest reactions to filth in a post you admittedly never even read
before it was eventually removed from BD! I feel no shame whatsoever for being offended by either the language, or the racial slurs. If, as you
appear to indicate here, the entire post was removed, rather than just the offensive responses, that was DB's call. The original post sounded like an
honest accounting of a real incident to me, and I'm surprised it would have been removed. But please be advised that over 90% of the responses were
stated using words "a lot of of us" DON'T USE NOR TOLERATE "in our daily conversations with others". Maybe if you'd have seen the BD
post, then you'd have a better understanding for some of the negativity posted here. Yes, some challenged the validity of the information, but I
think most of the negativity was in response to vile follow-up posters comments.
Your closing comment of "shame on you simple minded people who are quick to judge others" certainly sounds like the pot speaking to the kettle! Shame
on you for judging others for expressing honest reactions to posts you admittedly never read! Judge not lest ye be judged!  |
