Default When did this group change from?


A bigot is a person who is intolerant of opinions, lifestyles, or
identities differing from his or her own, and bigotry is the
corresponding state of mind. Bigot is often used as a pejorative term
against a person who is obstinately devoted to prejudices even when
these views are challenged or proven to be false or not universally
applicable or acceptable.


So what is bigotted about asking a question?


It is not that that is what I want I am asking a question when did this
group go from enthusiests to people posting work from web government web
sites? I could care less if J-3 posted every photo from Nasa USAF and
the USN it is up to him. If he wants to waste his time that is his
choice. If he wants to be some use to this ( What used to be a great
group of enthusiest) Groupe he should pick up a camera and take some
photos and flood the group with his own works so we can all praise him.

What difference does it make if an OP posts his or her own photos
or whether they post scans or pictures gleaned from other places?
It seems to me that so long as they are on-topic and have something
to do with aviation in the broadest sense, why isn't that OK? This
bigoted view reminds me of the change from aeronautical engineer to
aerospace engineer in deference to the space race, so why is it bad
to post pictures of NASA vehicles so long as they're of reasonable
size and in JPEG format? If you want only original works, I think
you'll find that the amount of content posted will drop off
dramatically to the detriment of the group.
