Totally agree on the whole entertainment value thing. There is this epic thread full of squid pics on this kawi forum I was checking out that was hilarious. It had more of a "we are hear to laugh" tone though. That's what I am hear to do - laugh.

I'll post a link or maybe just steal some pics to add here.

This did start as kind of both, a way to see how crazy it is to ride unprotected as well as a funny thread to check out some crazy pictures. Others who took offense kind of took it to the next level.

I'm also not a religious person. And I despise being preached to. However, I would never deny anyone who is religious their right to start a thread in "The Bar" section of this open forum to discuss their views and beliefs about religion. I simply wouldn't go into their thread. They have the right to their opinions and beliefs. If they think they're better than me because they believe in a God that I don't, fine. That's their opinion and they're welcome to it. I know what I believe in (or don't believe in) and as you said, that's all you need. I don't need to discuss that aspect of life with them and we'll all get along. If you don't like what's discussed or posted in this thread, don't come in and read it. Simple as that.

I wasn't singling out any one person or anything, as I rarely pay attention to the negatives, and agree that anything can be discussed. And I wasn't complaining, just throwing another view out into the ether. I've just seen many instances (not just on this forum, also on others) where someone will mention how they took a ride sans helmet or whatever, and then a dozen people will come behind him/her and :spank: ....and that's all I take offense to. Who are they to say anything negative to that person, like a scolding is necessary or even called for.

only brought up religion because of the parallel to which some people take things. Like you I don't discuss that stuff, but I have to listen to friends and family blah blah blah all day about it. One thing I do subscribe to is "survival of the fittest" ..so the riders that go out and act a fool and then crash out and hurt themselves: I chalk up to "thinning the herd"

For the most part, I look at stuff like this and get a few laughs. I'm too old to take what I see/read on the interwebz seriously. Just thought it was a fitting place to voice my opinion.

off-topic, but related... in so cali I also see way too many ppl who also snowboard without a helmet... and I often question that decision. well, except for the bikini skiing snow bunnies i saw one time- but, i digress... <lol>

this past season I went up to the local mountains about 5 times to snowboard, and almost every time i was up there ambulances and sirens weren't far away... one time there was even a hellicopter that had to airlift someone seriously hurt.

when i got home that night and saw the news, it turns out a little girl got hit on the the slope and fractured her leg. the asshole that hit her didn't even bother to stop and kept going. and, i think he got away... when i was up there i noticed it's mostly the teenagers boarding recklessly. but, who knows...

ppl are just terrible nowadays when it comes to outdoor sports... ruins the fun and safety for everyone... :mad:
