Why go after the site? Go after Ron. It's more fun.
And before everyone rips my online balls off, I like Ron and think he should stay around.

Dont you dare leave Ron! That would be playing into their hand, and a damn chicken shyte hand they have.
Noone one this site should tolerate this person nor give way to this level of back stabbin shenanigans.
I may disagree with Ron, but we are all entitled to our own beliefs regardless.

I hope this does not cause Rdog to leave this site. While Rdog contributes a lot of non-climbing content as well as climbing content, I appreciate reading his comments even if I do not agree with a lot of it. I appreciate the diversity of the crowd, even those with very strong political views.

"...he seemed like a pretty down to earth dude except for that one f*#k up. "
Yeah, we all go off the deep end every once in a while, and deserve the benefit of the doubt until then.
It's the one who never leave the deep end that are the real whacknuts.

I know it's fallen in and out of favor over the years , but why not just have different sub forms : climbing , partners , trip reports , and off topic . Every other forum and community I am part of , motorcycles , 4x4 guys , and education , keep all the political junk confined in the off topic area . The forums and posters in general are so much more cordial and respectful ...

Ron, I think Tom Petty would send you a cease and desist letter if he knew you were using one of his songs as your battle cry.

"If it were my website I would not allow threads about politics or religion." -drljefe
Oh, drljefe, I'm disappointed to read that. So where's your inner humanist in that post? or inner humanities junkie?
Politics... religion... arguably our two institutions that are most concerned with humans and their deepest interests.
The forum's often likened to a climber's campfire. Really, what kind of campfire would it be with these two core subjects barred? Food for thought.
.....
Damned if you do, damned if you don't.
Say you're a "science type" (scientist, scienteer, science scholar, fan of science, etc)... You stick to science and avoid the humanities (the issues, topics, whatnot), and then you're considered by many narrow-minded, out of touch, anal-retentive, introverted, cold, yada yada.. On the other hand, you take up the challenge (unlike the stereotype, unlike many of your predecessors of yesteryear) and you actively / proactively involve yourself in the humanities in the form of politics and/or religion and/or philosophy and/or belief and such efforts are referred to as junk and bs and stoopid... worth avoiding whenever and wherever possible.
Damn, it's a tough world.
Yes, indeed. :)

Regarding violence...Ron, didn't you post a thread this morning and then delete it? Didn't you call out someone and say that if this person made a comment like that to you in person you'd "take ANY action necessary" to curtail it? crankster
so i have to write the sponsors now too.
"Dear Google,
clearly, you should not be sending advertising for outdoor singles, or babes in lingerie on the web site known as supertaco. Based upon the intelligence of some users and the immature fights that break out google should really be sending crayon and diaper advertisements. Just be forewarned.
sincerely,

"Winans is likely referring to the relatively new member Rdog, but we are not sure as he's never clarified which member or what specific posts he feels are inappropriate)."
That's because rdog(Ron Anderson) had a mental meltdown, deleted his previous 20,000 bigoted, racist, and intolerant posts, and just recently crawled back as a new forum member. Winans delivery sucks, but he ain't lying.

Here is an example of a recent communication Mr. Winans sent to us:
It makes sense to me to post all of his communications to you and any other communications to others to which you have access here.
I don't think Winans will do it himself.
If he thinks he has a case to make, then let's see what it is.

If Winans has a beef about Rdogs porcupine fleece-lined thongs , this isn't the venue to air it..
