So it’s ok to be racist, islamaphobic and attack gay and trans folks so long as you contribute positively in other areas? Nah, • that noise.^ All fair (since I'm the self-appointed Ref, hah, although I'm not sure I've seen anything I would call "racist", but maybe I haven't seen everything he's posted...I am very busy dodging work). I have a lot of the same reactions as most everyone else to a lot of the things he posts, in any case. I just think it's worth a sit-n-think about just how cloistered we want to become, esp. when someone has actual aviation knowledge to contribute. You get the idea.
It’s really offensive the amount of mother •ers (and i’m definitely not just speaking to you, as there are many on this site) who will look the other way because he’s got cool wrenching stories!!
