I spend a lot of my own money on stuff simply because it's easier. Not to mention the fact that it eliminates having to beg people to get stuff done. Not being obligated to somebody for them having helped somebody or some thing at my behest is actually worth something to me. I think about this stuff a lot and still never come up with a viable answer.

At any rate, in this case, wouldn't a $40 scope be cheaper, in the end, than all the back-and-forth on the internet, emails, endless PM's and especially all the bad publicity for SM? It's astonishing actually.


Yes.

The above post is referencing those who fund raise on the up-and-up. Then time after time you have the big talkers who always want to "bear the bag" and who steal from charities and non-profit. You have people who, despite plenty of overwhelming evidence of theft, turn over the reins of various charitable organizations to those who steal. Then stuff gets stolen and everybody stands around asking each other why? Some folks are just thieves and when you turn your goods over to them and they steal, is it really any wonder? This is not directed to or about the OP. It is just a general statement.

Btw SM, sorry, but I have no interest in making a contribution at this time.

I just want to thank everyone here. As a noob I almost bought a rifle from SM. Did a could of searches and passed. Makes me happy to have NOT been shafted.

He is not a good person. Anyone "defending" him should take a good look at themselves.

Confidence man hence the term Con man.

Display enough goodwill and caring to keep the trust up and the blinders on the victims and their circle.

Serial pedophiles operate the same way...

That's right. I can't sleep, and I've been drinking heavily over this.
