Subject: Re: [IRCA] CQ Communications & The idea of merging NRC/IRCA
Honestly, I need to
terminate my participation in the discussion at this point. My
perception is that a few hard-liners on the BoD on one or both
clubs are the ones standing in the way of what is common sense
to many members. We're up to about twenty e-mails on the topic
so far, and still no one can or will state what the original
issues were, or how they relate today.
Frankly, Mike, I'm not interested in the feelings of the Board
of Directors on this issue. I'm interested in someone presenting
some facts that will help me understand what the problem was,
and possibly still is. If those can be articulated, I might
change my point of view. Otherwise, it just looks like an
entrenched position situation.
As for people who "stand up for their heritage". I'm a
Southerner, and proud of it. But I share no heritage with men
who fought to protect an economic system that enslaved other
human beings. History judged them wrong, and justly so. That the
symbol of that rebellion causes people of color pain and outrage
is no surprise to me. Anyone who displays it is ignorant at
best, and racist at worst.
And with that, I'll terminate my participation in this
discussion.

Les Rayburn, N1LF
Proud Member of both the IRCA and NRC.
