Excuse me, but how did anyone get copies of charges that the Board has not seen?

Diane Strasser asked me to foward this to the list, as she was unable to send 
it herself.  Seems like there are a lot of people that can't post to the list 
lately.  Wonder why?

Having read the charges against the GSDCA's Executive Committee [Lew Bunch, 
(President), Gary Szymczak, (Vice President), Bill Pfeiffer, (Treasurer), 
Carmen Battaglia, (Director), and Kris Fasano, (Director)] made by seventeen 
club members, I can only hope the following: 

1.  That if, in fact, procedure was followed and each one of the seventeen 
individuals who filed charges against each of the five individuals named above 
had to post the $50.00 for each charge, ($250.00 per person for a total of 
$4,250), that they give one moment to think of what that amount of money might 
REALLY have done for the breed and/or club they profess to love.  Many German 
Shepherds could have been rescued, rehabilitated and rehomed for $4,250.00. 

2.  That each of the individuals who filed the charges has given some thought 
as to how this will forever damage the club, the breed and the individuals 
named.  It is so very easy to make general accusations regarding "dereliction" 
of duty, "failure" to act but extremely difficult to prove and, in this case, 
impossible.   

Those are my hopes; here is my opinion, one which I am happy to learn I share 
with many GSDCA members: 

This is the most disgusting, vitriolic, pathetically vengeful attack on five 
human beings who have individually done more for this club and breed than you, 
the spiteful seventeen, 
have ever or will ever do collectively.  You're an interesting group and an 
obvious one.  With one exception, none of you have made any significant 
contribution to the club or the breed.  It's laughable that one of the 
"signers" is a brand new member of the GSDCA and a known trouble maker on other 
lists.  Another has allegedly been suspended from the AKC in the past for 
activities which were detrimental to the breed in the most basic of ways. As I 
read the list of names of those being charged, I see people with many, many 
credentials; as breeders, exhibitors, judges, and, sadly for them, as GSDCA 
officers and Directors.  Then I read the list of the "spiteful seventeen"; only 
ONE of you has the right to claim those same credentials. 

I will give you all credit for one thing; you are successfully tearing this 
club in two and it's an insult to the rest of us who claim membership in the 
GSDCA and love and respect for the German Shepherd Dog.  There is no question 
that there are problems within the GSDCA as there are problems in any 
organization.  What you have done is far more heinous and despicable than any 
of the individual accusations you have made.
