I THINK ALL SIDES MADE THEIR POINTS AS TO THE VARING OPINIONS ABOUT THE MACAU EXHIBIT. SO IT IS TIME TO MOVE ON AS IT IS OLD NEWS IN THE FORUM AT THIS POINT. I REALIZE IT WILL REMAIN A SORE SPOT FOR SOME FOREVER AND THAT THEY WILL PROBABLY NEVER HELP OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY FUTURE EXHIBITS UNLESS THEY HAVE THE POWER TO CONTROL THE SHOW TO THEIR LIKEING. I HAVE FOUND THE ONLY WAY TO CONTROL THINGS TO YOUR LIKING AND NOT HAVE TO COMPROMISE WITH OTHERS IS TO DO YOUR OWN EXHIBITION OR WEB PAGE. I HOPE THIS GAUNTLET THROWN MAY SPARK SUCH A EXHIBIT OR WEB PAGE
![]() PERHAPS WHEN WE RECEIVE OUR CATALOGS THE MEMBERS CAN PROOF READ IT AND POST ANY MISTAKES THEY FIND LISTING PAGE AND MISTAKE AND WE CAN CORRECT OUR COPYS. ![]() AS TO THE FORUM BEING SQUEEKY CLEAN ![]() ![]() THRU OUT HISTORY THERE HAVE BEEN GOOD PEOPLE AND BAD PEOPLE ON ALL SIDES AND FALSE HOOD AND TRUTH IN WRITTEN HISTORY. THE WRITTEN REPORTS ALWAYS ARE BASED ON THE WRITERS UNDERSTANDING OF THE SITUATION AND HIS VIEWPOINT WHICH IS OFTEN VERY UNINFORMED. INDEED A MORO MAY NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO STRIKE WITH HIS BARONG AND THREW IT AS A LAST ATTEMPT BEFORE BEING CUT DOWN. THIS MIGHT HAVE STUCK IN THE MIND OF A WITNESS ESPECIALLY IF IT WAS A NEAR MISS OR A SUCESSFUL THROW AND HE MIGHT HAVE WRITTEN THAT THEY THROW THEIR KRIS NOT EVEN KNOWING THE PROPER NAME OF THE WEAPON. THERE IS OFTEN VIOLENCE WHEN PEOPLE WHO DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE OTHERS SOCIETY,BELIEFS ,TRADITIONS COME AND TRY TO FORCE THEIR OWN ON THOSE PEOPLE. MOST OFTEN IT IS DONE THRU USING WAR, SLAVERY, VIOLENCE AND TERROR TO ENFORCE THEIR NEW LAWS TO SUBJIGATE AND THEN CONTROL OR CONVERT THE PEOPLE TO THEIR VIEWS. THIS NO DOUBT HAPPENED IN THE PHILIPPINES AS WELL AS MANY OTHER PLACES AMONG SOME TRIBES DURING MASS IMIGRATIONS LONG BEFORE THE EUROPEANS,SPANISH OR AMERICANS ARRIVED AND DID THE SAME. IN MANY PARTS OF THE WORLD IT IS STILL HAPPENING TODAY FOR VARIOUS REASONS SOME GOOD AND SOME BAD. OFTEN THE INVADER IS TAUGHT THAT HIS TRIBE, RACE, SOCIETY, COUNTRY OR RELIGION IS BETTER THAN THEIRS SO ALL THE VIOLENCE AGAINST THOSE WHO WON'T GO ALONG PEACFULLY IS JUSTIFIED AND FOR THEIR OWN GOOD. ![]() UNFORTUNATELY IT WORKS JUST AS WELL TODAY AS IN THE ANCIENT PAST THIS PITTING OF ONE TRIBE, NATION, RACE, RELIGION, OR CLASS AGAINST THE OTHER TO CREATE CHAOS AND SUFFERING IN THE PRESENT. ![]() POOR MODERATOR HE WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO WATCH HIS FOOTBALL GAME AT THIS RATE YET ANOTHER HOT TOPIC. THATS 3 IN SHORT ORDER ARE WE GOING FOR THE RECORD ![]() |
