[QUOTE=BIGBADJOHN;269848]What a class act Why bash the good . The guy and his , business partner and there group do there all , get prizes donations, etc , They want to give there Maximum donation to MAKE A WISH .
I had to read this three times to understand please read before you hit post.
I don' t really think its up to you to stir the pot and get everyone worked up over something you can't even control. Its there choice of a foundation to support , and its great there guys like Rumtan who do so . In my opinion this post is nothing other then a bash session.
I dont think its stirring the pot and yes he can control it by not supporting it. If infact they are antihunting supporting it doesnt make much sense to me.

BBJ.. I would guess the Make a wish stance was just over looked. Or becouse there was no KNOWN second choice and the foundation of Wish is solid they decided to support them.

Your DEAD wrong on this one JOHNIN AB.
I have thanked him already, I have said a few times that it was a nice thought and he deserved some acolades. I just dont 100% aggree with his charity of choice. I am sure he had no idea that Make a Wish was a Anti hunter set up. SO perhaps next year if he choses to do something simalar he can make a more informed choice.
And if that happens to be Make a wish.. SO be it. Its still a good idea.

''A charity group that is more to our tastes'' Jamie speak for yourself, from what I have read you seem to be the only one that has a problem with this, maybe you should take sometime off the forum and start your own crusade for kids charities then you can sit back, pat yourself on the back

And what about the kids who want to go hunting.. Or in the future the kids that want to go fishing?

Jamie, you state that by posting this Rumtan can make a more informed decision on which charity he supports next year. It is his choice what charity he supports and the reason he supports this one is a damn fine reason.
I guess supporting Rumtan so kids can get out and go fishing is wrong beacuse that is not classified as an outdoors type activity. Well guess I have been wrong my whole life to assume, getting out and catching some fish is an outdoors activity.
Does the fact that Rob graciously posted this event on his website make Rob and AO anti hunting? I seriously doubt it. I would assume Rob posted it as he recognized a good event that was helping out a worthwhile charity and did not let the politics get in the way of trying to help out sick kids. I tip my hat to Rob for that.
And oh contrare Jamie, I know exactly what you are saying and quite frankly, I do not appreciate it at all. To even question someones choice of a charity without knowing why is downright ignorant and uncalled for. It speaks highly of your character or lack thereof! And to be quite frank, I hope Rumtan forwards this thread onto the president of the Make a Wish foundation here in Alberta, who by the way was at the derby, as your thread title is libelous and they should seek legal recourse against you.

OK whatever , but still you don't know the real reason why Rumtan and Rumwal adventures to go with Make A wish , maybe if you found out you'd change your thinking . I know its really close to there hearts as is myself and a few others . Its great that there's all sorts of these foundations to help sick kids with there dream's. I think this is what we need to support instead of bashing the petty stuff. He simply used his fishing derby to support the foundation ........

Your right.. It was a poor choice of words.
I guess I only speak for myself when I say I want kids to be able to do what they chose and not be forced to Bow down to the ANTIS.

Fair enough BBJ I am sure Rum had his reasons and of them none can possibly be bad. I am 100% positive this was done with the best of intentions. I dont need to know the details of why he picked them as his choice.
I just dont like the fact they exclude kids from enjoying the great outdoors.
I am so glad that there is charitys that specialize in this aspect of a kids life. Its unfortuante that it is that way, but what else can be done. Imagine the power of a united charity system that catered to all kids..

The money raised at this derby goes to stock trout in their pond where they take the kids thru the make a wish foundation fishing. Now in my mind that is a very noble gesture and well worth supporting! Ask Rumtan of the work they have done at this pond so all kids can enjoy it. Like the walkways out to the islands that accomodate wheelchairs etc.
One of the group putting this derby on, his son was granted a wish thru the make a wish foundation. It brought some joy to the child and family in a very tough time and they decided to help out the foundation as best they could. One way was running a derby to raise funds to stock a pond so the kids thru the make a wish foundation could come out and enjoy a day of fishing. Now it absolutely blows me away that members on this forum could come on here and even question Rumtan's decision or those of us who went out to support him in this endeavour. If my dollars can make a memorable day for a sick kid and his family then I am all for it.

john.. Have you gone off your Meds??
Go ahead.. forward it.. Hell man I will even write you a personal letter stating the EXACT same thing. And I will continue to repeat EXACTLY what I have said until the day that MAKE A WISH decides that kids who want to hunt will be afforded the same opportunity through MWF as the kid who wants to go to Disney Land.
Its not worth getting into this with you. You don’t seem to have the ability between your ears to comprehend what I am saying.

Answer this question.. IF Make a wish bans fishing trips for sick kids, are you still going to be there to support them with such tenacity?
If so.. Good for you. I made a business choice to support those that support what I do.
It's not like Make a wish is going to fold up becouse I made this choice. Its more like I feel better supporting a group who supports kids in the outdoors.
JohninAB. Make a wish purposfully made a decsion that I dont agree with. And you as a outdoorsman should understand that. I applaude what they are trying to do, but I dont aggree with the stance they have taken.
From a personal stand point if I have a choice between Make a wish and Hunt of a life time.. I will pick Hunt of a lifetime each and EVERY TIME.
Especially if I was throwing a Outdoor type event.
This is a OUTDOORSMEN board. Support the Kids who want to be Outdoors.

Jaime honestly you are just digging yourself a hole here....

Who or what are you going down on?
All seriousness I think its great Rumtan puts the effort in to help out sick kids and hopefully the money raised will bring joy to a youngster.
But if a charity, business or any orginization is an ANTI I personally wont support it.

Jamie, I would like to point out it is quite obviously you who has no comprehension of what you are saying or trying to do here.
1) Make a libelous statement that Make a Wish is anti hunting. Better look hard for some backing documentation on that one in case a lawyer contacts you about it.
2) Trying to tell Rumtan that by posting this drivel you have posted here will help him make a more informed decision on which charity he chooses to support. As if that is any business of yours.
3) Make a statement about my mental faculties? Childish and boorish at best.
4) To ask in this forum if I have gone off my meds, like what is that? Other than a weak desperate attempt to try and discredit me.
I have dealt with all sorts in my profession and quite frankly, they weak attempts on my character displayed here are of no consequence to me.

Oh Boy.. Slow is now PC term that is unaceptable..
Anivil perhaps you could post up a list of words that are acceptable to you.
I will make sure to use them.
And then to top it off, I didnt use it in the sense you did. I dont think of the responders to this thread as Mentally Challenged. They are just not getting what I am trying to say.
Dont put words in my mouth.
And I really dont care if you have "HAD ENOUGH" dont read the thread if you cant stand some honest observations about MWF.
There is no hole to be dug. MWF did that when they decided to BAN HUNTING in there program. Just you wait it will not be to long and they will BAN FISHING.. Your next my little sunglass wearing friend.

Five-O, that is the whole point of this discussion. Make a Wish is not anti hunting. They had to make a business decision not to allow hunting to retain so desperately needed funding from an anti hunting organization to ensure they could still grant those wishes of sick kids in other areas, be it fishing, disneyland etc. It would be a tough choice but one has to realize that to continue on helping the kids they had to do what they had to do. It would have made no sense to cut off their noses to spite their face! It is after all about the kids! We on this board who attended Rumtan's derby went for the kids and what Rumtan was raising money for, and that was to stock the pond with fish so once again these sick kids and their families could come out thru the Make a Wish foundation and enjoy their time together outdoors catching fish. It is really sad when politics gets in the way of a noble venture.

Are you seriously and publicly calling people with Downs "slow"? I didn't see Jamie make any such connection. You have made the connection. No one in this discussion made any comments about people with Downs or alluded to them in any fashion. I wouldn't associate Downs with "slowness" to understand a point someone is trying to put across (which is how Jamie used the word "slow"), but apparently you do. Strange.

Are you serious??? did you read... I AM AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF THE EDSS and the CDSS.....
You guys are fuking joking right???.. I'm not going to waste my breathe on you all any more.... I am not publicly stating anything discriminating nor associating what you claim. If you want to have a kitchen sink fight **** off and go elsewhere.... You can try to drag me into this but honestly I know where I stand, and losers like you can say all you want.
Sorry but Kindergarten and high school was years ago, some of you need to grow up!
Its sad that so many of you have this amount of time on your hands that you can act like a bunch of school kids fight over who gets to be king of the hill.... the more some of you try to state your case the more foolish you all look.
If I look foolish then so be It, I'll end it right now. But come on you guys this is ridiculous
Does anyone agree that this is just a waste of bandwith?
