At least Travis Kemp is funny; but I can't even say that about bob. To say that bob is discordant is an understatement.

I voted for no ban. He's a smacked a$$... but my reasoning is this:

1. I believe in free speech and I think the purpose of a forum like this is for people to share not only a common intesest but also differing viewpoints which in turn can lead to interesting, even if sometimes heated, discussion.

2. I recognize the fact that some of the things he's said in posts could in fact be dangerous if they were to re-enforce another dumb a$$es viewpoints about driving like an idiot or what not. However every post that I've read where he's done this PAM987987543 has been harshly ridiculed and put in his place by other "responsible" members of AF. In fact the outcry against almost everything he's ever said has been pretty much overwhelming. I think in many ways his ability to post could be beneficial. Look at what happened to those kids in the M5. Isn't it possible that if people had told that 18 year old kid to stop driving like a punk they could still be alive? No one can control what anyone other than they themself do, but we can certainly attempt to have an influence on people who could potentially make stupid decisions which could have dangerous results.

^ good point.. but i also feel like - u have him around u tolerate it.. u condone it..

we certainly as a whole dont condone those actions. & hes aware of how the members feel about his posts - shouldnt that be incentive if u want to remain on these forums to speak easy?


and yes.. it is free speech. but theres consequences.
yes, he can say whatever the Fk he wants.. he can go to another forum and do it.
he can start his own forum for all i care.


either way his fate is in the hands of the ppl.
we'll have to go w/ whatever the people decide.

because hes a douschebag... he brings little, if not nothing, to the table. His posts are offensive and sometimes really **** me off...

That being said, let him stay... i need someone to make fun of when i get home from a long day of work...
