[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Big_Girl_4005 [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by ACL Fan [quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by Big_Boy_4005 I view trespassing like speeding on the highway, it happens, just don't get caught. This comment may draw some heat form some members, but this is my opinion, and I'll stand by it. This whole thread has been about just that, getting caught in the railroad's "speed trap". I got off with a warning, but I don't plan to change, just choose my times more wisely. [/quote] You're hurting everyone who likes to railfan when you do that. Thanks for your thoughtlessness. And when you DO get caught, you deserve to be arrested and prosecuted. Then you can explain to your children, whom you're teaching to break the law when they don't like it, why Daddy's getting handcuffed and placed in the back seat of a police car. Also, the wife will love it. [/quote] ACL-I typed and erased alot stuff while I thought of how to answer this post. I don't need to defend Big_Boy he can do that himself. I just want to say that you have no idea what he is like and what he teaches his kids. You seem to have a lot of hostility in your posts that do not need to be directed at him. [/quote] Anyone who knowingly breaks the law and takes his children with him while doing so has a problem. Period. He may be a great guy, but teaching children that they don't have to respect the law if they don't feel like it leads to trouble later. If you don't care about that, that's your problem--but when kids who were taught to act this way start acting this way--trespassing,f or example, they become everyone's problem. The railroads and government are already becoming hostile toward everyday railfans as it is--when people like this claim they're going to continue their illegal activities (as play it off as some kind of game) are only serving to make things tougher on the rest of us law-abiding railfans. So, yes, the hostility certainly does need to be directed at him. he is, as they say, part of the problem.
