Saeed, like most of his other countrymen, did nothing to earn his wealth. He's simply related to the right people.


Gee. Sounds a lot like the USA, sorta, don’t it ?

Of course we don’t have special elites in America’s society or those with special privileges or those that can break the laws with total immunity or those who work others for pittance of pay or those who are simply born to “the right families “ or......

Nahh. We’re above all that here.


No, it doesn't. We have labor laws and fought a fairly large war to end slavery about 160 years ago.

I don't see too many people here defending the Kennedys, Rockefellers, or most professional politicians, like you did in regards to Saeed.

People like all those that you mentioned including Saeed don’t need anyone defending them.

How is that ending slavery working out so far? There were far bigger reasons for the Civil War than slavery.

If RickBin was anything like the owner of the other site, I wouldn't come to this site either.

The difference is Rick is not...

You said the UAE sounds a lot like the USA. It is nothing like the USA.

We ended slavery here. They have not. It was ended as a result of the Civil War. Other reasons for the war are irrelevant to the conversation.

IndyCA35 was defending him here as someone who "had made something of himself", which is about 180 degrees from the truth.

Weird justification for the other site then if you don't partake in these things either. And makes zero sense...

HH, you don’t read worth a f’k.

I compared what we have here in the USA to what you said existed in the UAE and you want to get away from that knowing that you’re wrong what I pointed out is the truth.

Please try and understand that I’m defending no one. I am not a member of Accurate Reloading and have never posted there. I do read frequently and read what interests me.
I’ve mentioned before that I’ve picked up some great hunts by reading the Outfitters and Discounted Hunts thread and for that I am appreciative.

That site isn’t a commercially run enterprise and accepts no outside monies. If you don’t like the site simply don’t go there. It’s that easy, even you can do it.

I’d ask how many times have you personally been a guest in the UAE and have you worked there in the past ?

I can read, evidently you can't. I'm not wrong, you simply have no idea what you are talking about.

I never said you defended him, I specifically said IndyCA35 did, which prompted my original post. For some reason, you seemed to get fired up about it.

I've been to the UAE several times for work, for several days (or a couple weeks) each time. I've seen how they treat their employees. I was not subject to such treatment, I was not part of the Kafala program, I was there working for a US-based company.

You are ignorant, rude, and not terribly bright. For the first time ever, I'm putting someone on ignore now.

AR used to be the absolute best on Big Bores, anything 375 and up and the Big Bores forum was the most popular after the African Forum. However, these days those forums are dead and especially Big Bores.

One of the great posters on Big Bores was RIP who now posts on 24 Hour Express Rifles as RifleCrank. Like me he was banned and being a conservative is the problem. The AR forum header they had Congratulations Joe Biden was a bit much for many us.

Saeed used to post anti Trump stuff but I think he saw the problem that created so he added anti Biden so he was just doing anti America and not just anti Trump.

My banning was by Walter I really don't know if Walter does the banning or is just used as a front for Saeed and Don.

I was on AR when it started in 1998 and before it got the Bulletin Board format. I have been banned plenty of times but not for my politics, that is a recent thing with the AR bannings since Trump became POTUS.

At times it seems if Saeed and Don want to close AR.

AR was a spin off from hunt America due to dystopian moderation.
