  1. This thread should not exist in the first place. HC broke the law. He paid the price and it should have been left at that. Instead he brought it here. Why? Other than the fact that he was on his way to a geocaching event when he broke the law what has any of it got to do with geocaching? That aside he broke the law and asked the people here to side with him. Sorry. We all make mistakes, what we do next is what counts. recently i was caching and went down something that looked like a road on my map. it was not marked "closed to motorized vehicles". when it turned into a giant suckhole of doom requiring $350 worth of tow truck, i discovered that the place i was being towed from was .3 mile from being covered by AAA. i want everyone to write to their corporate HQ and complain about how i was treated. Was AAA sitting .3 miles away watching you get towed through their window?
  2. Geez, I've read all the posts to this point and some agree with me, some don't. Some agree I was victimized, some say I should have known better and got what was coming to me. But all in all it was a civil discourse. Now comes this out and out blatant personal attack on me. You don't know me from Adam, but felt it was within your right to spew such virtriol my way? Talk about unwarranted negativity and hostility! I've always felt the GC forums were pretty much a viper pit and had reservations about posting on here in the first place. That's why I only have 56 posts in 4+ years as a Premium Member. I guess that's why you have 3887... You may wish to read my post again. There is, and was, no personal attack upon you as a person. Anyone halfway competent in reading and comprehending the English language can and will tell you that there were absolutely no personal attacks against you in my post. However, there were indeed a number of accurate observations -- that is, reportage -- offered in my post about your BEHAVIORS, that is, about what you wrote and what you reported that you did in and about the situation. You may wish to learn to draw a distinction between the two things, else you may run into some bumps in life and end up takiing offense where none was needed. By the way, I have received several private emails from folks who have followed this thread reminding me that I forgot to list two particular behaviors in the list in my earlier post; I agree with their joint assessments, and so, here goes; the behaviors that I forgot to list were the following: Displaying unbridled arrogance by leaving your vehicle on someone else's private property and then trying to create distraction by finger-pointing and blaming the property owner/lessee (i.e., KFC) when your vehicle was, as would be expected, towed. Victim mentality Denial. Enuf said. To me, this kind of behavior that you exhibited is akin to driving your car in front of a moving train as it approaches and parking it on the tracks, so that the train will hit your car, and then, in the wake of the crash, huffing and puffing and trying to blame the railroad and the train engineer for the fact that the train, as would simply be expected, hit your vehicle and demolished it. Allow me to remind you that no one forced you to leave your vehicle parked on KFC's private lot, and rather, that was your personal choice. Why not own your behavior rather then engage in denial and huffing and puffing? You are burning a lot of calories, and carrying a lot of anger, rage and blame, where none need be expended nor carried. Frankly speaking, your behavior, as described and exhibited in each of your posts in this thread in a public forum, where all the world can see your words, makes me ashamed to be a geocacher. Anyone competent in the English language will tell you that by calling someone a whiner, or stating they are whining, is a personal attack. I am sure in a head as large as yours you would be able to figure that out.
