No, it's real. The victim lurks and occasionally posts to RMR. He's confirmed being attacked at an LDRS "board meeting" by Dick Embry. I've spoken first hand to at least one witness who has the incident on tape.

Phil Stein - 07 Mar 2004 00:16 GMT I'd like to see the video. Can he post it on AMBR? Anyone that would do that has to be a major (or is that Lt. Col.) AH.

I can think of a couple folks who could get that kind of reaction out of almost anyone, and who would deserve being on the receiving end.

Dave, were you one of those guys in school who went around harassing people until they were ready to fight back, knowing that if they popped you, they'd be trouble for "fighting" and you'd get off scot-free?

Alex Mericas - 07 Mar 2004 23:20 GMT Zero Tolerance is liberal teacher speak for zero initiative. You don't have to figure out who was right and who was wrong, they all are guilty. Try teaching a kid to stand up for himself in today's environment. The bully doesn't care because he's a dead-end loser anyway and bad attention is better than no attention. The kid trying to defend himself get's labeled as a bad kid, potentially including alternative schools.
Jerry would like zero tolerance because then he could finally win an argument.
Izzy would like zero tolerance because he could quote the rulebook.

I previously acknowledged that all three of my kids are 18 months away from their Black Belts in Shotokan Karate (they are all now Brown II)
those who have the ability and confidence rarely find themselves in fights, except perhaps in defense of others
not unlike those acting in defense of rocketry against the TRA corruption and their agenda of market dominance and regulatory surrogacy?

Phil Stein - 07 Mar 2004 14:42 GMT Ray - I you were smart, you would have popped him where there were no witnesses. Then you could deny it.
I'm not saying I would even do such a thing, Just an observation.

but then again, maybe there was witness after all ;)

the more pertinent question is, what should be done about it? Or are you among those that think past sins should be left in the past, and people who committed them should continue be entrusted with positions in leadership or influence?
> In addition, you may have lost any remaining respect you may have > retained, but I doubt you care.. what I "care" about, Fred, is that the truth is made available and the corruption is excised so we can get on with the business of rocketry advocacy. I take for granted that everyone learning the truth would be motivated according to their disposition
as would Gregg D. Renkes, Attorney General for the State of Alaska
how many examples of "abuse of authority" do you think would take to cross that threshold?

"Had to be restrained" is a subjective appraisal of the situation. Nobody knows the outcome of the events if he hadn't been restrained.
next?

And a BoD member should be setting a good example!
-- ARTICLE IV - MEMBERS DUTIES AND OBLIGATIONS SECTION 3. OTHER DUTIES (excerpted)
Members shall ... conduct themselves in a proper manner to uphold the dignity of the corporation at meetings ... --
and while we're on the subject of the *current* By Laws:
-- ARTICLE V - BOARD OF DIRECTORS SECTION 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
(a) To indemnify a director, officer, or former director or officer of the corporation or a person who has served at its request as a director or officer. The officers and directors shall be fully and wholly indemnified to the extent permitted under Alaskan statutes 10.20.0011(14). This will also include indemnification against charges against the director or officer by virtue of their performance or interpretation of those or other sections of the bylaws.
(b) Acts of willful misconduct, dereliction of duty, voluntary criminal actions by officers or directors will be exempt from indemnification. --
that last paragraph is applicable to several parties on multiple counts, BTW
