Not a Boss music fan, never liked his music. But after reading this thread it is sobering to see how ugly a big part of this country really is. Makes me wonder about where I live and have served all this time?


Some people are so gullible as they gulp the Kool Aid....

Ya know, I think The Boss is the best songwriter in the history of music, and he puts on the best show in rock, but I was damn disappointed when I found out he was a pablum puker.

To each their own. Respect is earned.
I'd help a stranger before someone I think is a jerk. If I think you're a jerk WHY TF would I help you. I don't believe in Karma so I don't believe it'll come back to bite me. If so it's over due.

Yep. And, it gets worse.

The next time you want to withhold your help or your support for someone, no matter the reason, ask yourself, do your reasons reflect more on them or on you.

Well said Ranger.
I started riding in the late 70's. For the record, I have NEVER not stopped, and back then you stopped a lot. I've often spent several hours working on a stranger's bike and made a lot of friends that way.


Normally I would have said I'd stop 100% of the time (and have), but the OP mentioned a certain person.....sorry, I wouldn't stop. I'm getting tired of being referred to as a racist, a sexist, a xenophobe, someone with less intelligence than the enlightened liberal elites....and this person just puts a face on it.


I wish I were a better man and could overlook that fact, but I'm a flawed human being and I can't (at least for now). It may be childish, but it's just my way of saying F U, I've had enough.
