> I wanted to send this message to you, without my husbands knowledge,
because you are wrong, very wrong. Jim has been a vital member to your
precious KLR list since before it was a list. It was just him, Gino, Bob H.
and a few others and they just communicated with each other. This was when
your magazine I think it is called Dual Sport News, was just getting off the
ground. My husband was one of the original members and founders yet all you
guys do is pick on him.
>
> Jim has always been willing to help others when asked. He has given
advice, provided care or repair instructions, and has recently offered to
collect a bunch of broken parts from you guys in order to take them to our
local Kawasaki Representative. Yet, what he gets in return is crapped on.
Certain people lie about him and his abilities. It seems all moderators of
your group post Gino have been assholes towards him. I read a lot of the
digests and I can see how Jim gets picked on. Yet, you moderators treat him
like crap when he tries to set the record straight.
>
> I've tried to get Jim to just blow out your obviously biased and cliqued
a-mail group. Yet, he refuses. He has friends on the list, plus it gives him
something to do on his really bad pain days. Plus, he has a bit of pride in
him that causes him to cling to the list because he is one of the top 5
longest standing members of this group.
>
> Jim has always been helpful to people. He has offered to get up in the
middle of the night and come and pick up any stranded riders with his truck.
Do you guys honor and respect him for his giving nature? No, you chastise
him, censor him, even ban him. If it were not for his efforts, a lot of your
members would not have the knowledge, parts, wisdom, and information that he
has provided. Heck, without Jim's initial efforts with the other couple of
guys, you would not even have an a-group list now.
>
> I'm going to stand out of my "Lady" suit and tell you what I think. I
think YOU are unfair to my husband, and I think the other people that have
cliqued up are total and complete assholes. As far as I'm concerned, your
list is a congregation of about 50% losers and 50% of Jim's friends.
Personally, screw your friggin list. Most of you aren't real men anyway. I'd
like to see anyone of you perform as he has considering his health situation
with Lyme Disease. I would like to take your e-mail group and shove it up
the rear of anyone that chastises, lies, censors, or verbally mistreats my
husband. In my opinion, he is more man that the majority of your listers.
I'd like to tell you to take your group and shove it where the sun doesn't
shine, but my husband won't leave the group. He loves it too much, and he
enjoys helping people, trading for goods, reading riding reports, and
picking up ride photos that get posted. He loves this damn group so much, he
uses the pictures he obtains as wallpaper for our computer.
>
> I'll tell you what. You reinstate Jim, now, and I won't go any further. If
you refuse, I will raise more hell with Yahoo than anyone has ever seen.
I'll make it so that your group may just get booted because they don't want
the hassle. You see, you are discriminating against a disabled person that
is required to be heavily medicated. Do you realize how much damage I could
do to your group by playing the discrimination card, plus, don't forget, I'm
a woman. They will listen to me before they listen to you. Plus, I have
documented proof of your treatment of Jim. What do you have? Nothing. Like I
said before, I've got tons of postings to prove Jim's case. What do you have
to disprove it? I'll tell you what you have, a few self righteous dick heads
that piss and cry when something they don't like happens. Do you want to be
on their side, or do you want to be neutral and play your part properly? I
strongly suggest that you don't try to play poker with me. Jim has tried
many times and lost almost every time. I will make your life and the groups
life a living hell. I won't stop with Yahoo, I'll go to the ACLU, the FCC,
The Society for Disabled persons, and if necessary, I'll go to the
press/media.

> Because my husband has had Lyme Disease for about seven years, he probably
won't get to enjoy the so called golden years. So, I intend to ensure that
my husband does enjoy what time God has given him. So, put him back to free
posting, or get set for war. I'm not a bitch you want to mess with. Now, do
not mention this to Jim. He does not know about it, and I don't want him to.
Just put his status back where it belongs and start giving my husband the
respect he deserves.
