Yes something did stir this up. I expressed my opinion of what I have seen
and read, and Mr Kramer disagreed with my position. I would hope that Mr
Kramer has not taken offense at this, I sure haven't. He chewed me up years
ago on one of my first posts. He has chewed up a few others since and I
would still be glad to get on the ground with him sometime. I have quoted
him more than once in the stuff I have saved.
He has been around for a long time and he has forgotten more than I probably
know but even if I am pretty green, I still know things he doesn't. Its the
nature of knowledge. I am honored to have him keep me from getting to
upity, and he will likely throw things at his computer over some of the
things when I ask for documentation.
You see I have learned a few things about loading blocks from this.
And it seems that if you don't start a fight things get down right boring
around here. So when Mr Kramer writes that Millers paintings mean NOTHING
don't let him get away with it, its more fun that way

Sir WindBreaker,
Not only are your interpretations of the constitutional law offensive, but
so is your behavior. It's no wonder this great nation is handing over it's
freedom to a few tyrants. Your insinuation that someone who creates typos
and who may have grammatical errors is somewhat less than intelligent is
nothing more than a good indication of your lack of understanding,
compassion, and commen sense. Your posts are offensive to anyone who loves

No argument from me there, but the government is going to need lots of metal
detectors, sniffing dogs and enough psychics to clean out the late night TV
infomercials to find all the guns up here! In many parts of Canada right

Subject: Re: MtMan-List: Can You Explain This?
Scott,
As a member of the AMM for a good amount of years and a buckskinner before
that I can honestly tell you that the few people in either roles who rag on
reenactors are clanging gongs not worth the effort to understand or debate
with. I have been to many....and let me reiterate....MANY AMM and other
rendezvous where I have seen plastic articles, cigarettes with filters, bic
lighters, cowboy boots, and other such articles that were clearly not of
period.
I would suggest that you don't let it bother you when someone points out
with a puffed out chest the deficiencies of reenactors. They are more than
likely appeasing something in themselves that needs to be appeased. These
very same are not "perfect" in their portrayal of the era they so dearly
love. I know for a fact that in non-AMM rendezvous, you have all sorts who
are in various stages of perfecting or getting their personna correct. If
there aren't, then you have stumbled upon a stagnant group of people who are
going to dwindle over time anyway, so who cares if they are critical. The
same actually holds true in AMM encampments too. If you don't see something
out of place, then there is either no learning going on, or you are
witnessing the slow death of a group.
I suggest that instead of trying to understand those type of people, you
just ignore them. There are plenty of other people in both the AMM and
other groups that don't focus on being critical. Those are the people you
should introduce yourself too and let the ones who criticize everyone share
a campfire on their own.

Subject: Re: MtMan-List: RE: AMM and Re-enactors
Scott,
I don't think that this has been an issue that has come up just over the
last few years. I'd have to say that it's been an issue as long as I've
been in the AMM, since around 92 or 93. I found it to be a huge topic of
discussion even before then when I was doing NMLRA doins'.
I do have some aversion to strictly "reenactment" as I define it. Which is,
dress up in costumes that don't get any use until an event. Play as if you
lived during that time period. Don't use the equipment or costumes at any
time other than events. This would be my definition of reenactment. It is
and has been a joy to get all my gear together and find out just exactly
what would never have worked in the mountains after a few days of period
living. It's amazing what gear you throw away and start to do over again
because it obviously would never work for very long. Or you've discovered a
much better way to do it.
One more thing. I believe that you have to be "sponsored" into the AMM.
You won't be able to be a Texas Ranger in the 1840's as the cutoff date for
AMM is 1840. I'm not aware of any method to "get papers sent through" in
order to join. If you know of an AMM party who is willing to let you
"submit" your papers to get in....I'd be interested in knowing who they are.
YOS,
Blood

Mr. Windwalker,
I know all too well what is going on with the current laws. You have no
idea what I have a clue about and what I don't have a clue about. But, it
is all too obvious that you have decided or that you believe that
constitutional ammendments that contradict the original contistutional law
are more than legal. They are only legal to those that allow them to be
legal. Whether the executors, judicial system, or legislators all deem them
legal is of no consequence to the truth. And the truth is that any
constitutional law that is ammended can not be upheld as legal or true if it
contridicts the original constitutional law.
As far as my name.....my name is Curtis Krouse....my given name is Blood. I
could care less what you think about "typical" or "common" AMM members. I
made no attempt to flame. But, I will exercise my right to point out that I
don't like your viewpoints. If you don't agree...that is fine. If you
consider it a flame...so be it.

the author's clever use of the vernacular, and thus is a carefully placed
literary device that demonstrates his writing prowess.

Blood,
I'm fully aware of how to "get in" the AMM. I completed my requirements
already and have two sponsors and several others who have offered their
signature. I also have other interests aside from Texas rangers and
understand the rules governing the time frame for the AMM. Thanks for your
comments... like I said, I never heard any of this arguement until the last
few years

Scott,
That's cool.... I wish you luck in your pursuit. The AMM is just like any
other organization. It has it's good points and it's bad points. Some are
real sticklers about things...other's aren't.

You will never be my future. I would not live under tyranny such as you
speak of. As Alan Avery spoke and quoted Charlton Heston. "Fom my cold
dead hands!" I have no desire to live in a country that deprives it's
citizens of the right to defend themselves.
And from someone who did 3 tours in Nam and the "who cares about the weekend
excursion called the Gulf", you shame every other veteran who fought in all
of this country's wars for the freedom which it stands for. I don't know
what you mean by the term full blood NA, but the Native Indians that I know
would be ashamed of your readiness to continue to give away your freedom.
It would be interesting to know why you are so willing to give up your
individual freedom to this government. It's a concept that is totally
foreign to me. Care to explain?
