Laughing Bear, AZ Mike did not just stop posting here because of me in your words " calling him names ". He was banned by Rick for " his " behavior " in the form of " his " comments on this forum. What specific names did I call Sycamore? I see here in this thread that Sycamore states that her not posting is because posting at the DCHS forum is not a high priority for her. Your excuse of "name calling " as a reason not to " engage " me is in reality just you putting yourself in a position to not be challenged on the issues by me. You can call me any name you want and it will not make me fall back on the excuse that I cannot discuss the relavant issues with you because you called me a name. Sticks and stones will break my bones but words will never hurt me :-) Remember elementary school laughing Bear? Your first paragraph in the post I am responding to has really got things twisted. The situation is, Katrina ( and others I would add ) have informed the county code dept that they feel the Bowen Ranch is not a legal operation. Nothing illegal about those actions from concerned citizens. Instead you try to put focus on Katrina and paint her as a bad person for bringing to light possible illegal activity. I personally have never heard of Katrina doing something illegal. I've heard dumptrucks full of stories about Mike Castro's illegal activity. Since Mike Castro is your neighbor it appears that " anything " he does is OK by you because, he's your neighbor. So if your neighbor is involved with a whole host of illegal acts like blocking public roads, aggressive intimidation of public people, threatening people with a gun, maybe even killing someone, in the end, for you apparently, neighbors are neighbors and don't deal with eachothers business, and never, ever, rat on eachother. I'm mean rat on eachother like that darn Katrina meddling in others illegal affairs. I for one hope my neighbors have a moral backbone strong enough that they are willing to stand up for normal and reasonble standards of human interaction. I hope they are not ones to close the shades, lock the door, and say, " everything that happens out there is not our business , those other people out there can do anything they want ". Your decision Laughing Bear not to " engage " me says to me that you feel your ideas are so solid that you don't need to explain, justify or support them, or that you are unable to defend your ideas successfully. I am comfortable in knowing that the clear thinkers at this forum will see the shaky ground of what you have proposed in your arguments. Your tactic of not responding to my questions here at this forum does nothing to support your position. Lastly, have I " ever " called you any names? I know, no response.
