Did Minimus ask him to drop to the ground and give him 40 pushups too? Sounds overly authoritarian to me.

bottom line is he put people in danger and acted like a child. he should be called out on it and removing his stripes was completely called for. if i do some dumb **** like that i hope to god someone puts me in line.
who ever he reps is guilty by association and sux for them.
forgive people for taking pride in what they do (m/u or NAM or M7 etc.)

yeah, i wasnt there...so what? facts are facts and whoever defends that shmucks actions is an idiot.

Wrong wrong wrong!!!!!

I'm trying to stay out of this but it looks like I can't. That "dude" is one of the most honest and nice guys I know. My dad told me a long time ago to only surround your self with good people. I have!

That "dude" went to dinner earlier that night with myself and another great group of people. He asked if he could get a ride with my wife and I because he was going to be drinking. Seems like a smart guy to me . At around 2am after a few more drinks he made a bad decision. If I were there I would have pulled him from his car and this wouldn't be an issue. It's amazing to me that no one in attendance at the time even tried to stop him.

He knows he screwed up but at this point there is nothing that can change that. That said it doesn't change my opinion of him in any way. He is a great guy that made a mistake period!!!!!

I think everyone needs to get off there high horse and give it rest. Every one at some time screws up. If associating myself makes "ME" and idiot then fine by me! I consider him a friend and would never turn my back on a friend............

Whoa guys...I am surprised my thread is not locked yet

This was started by MYSELF just for knowledge on the PADDLE SHIFTERS, NOT for crusifying Danny...

Can we just let it rest...that or start your own thread...
I think Danny has taken plenty to go around for the next dozen people who pull a FUBAR, or his own next dozen...

Can this ****fest just end please? This thread was right on topic until Minius came in with an attitude and railed on me because I wasn't raving over M7's latest product. Guess what, nobody gives a crap about my opinion!

Back to paddleshifters! .
