Lets try and keep it classy FMHSC

#1 Post by DEA » Mon Apr 11, 2016 7:24 am

Not sure if anyone has noticed or not but i have seen it at 2 of the 3 races from more that one person, possibly they are in the same group. FMHSC has always been about family and im sure it always will be. I enjoy bringing my kids that can read to the races as do others. So maybe, just a thought, leave your TRASHY tshirts and hoodies that have profanity plain as day on them more specifically reading F**K OFF and TEAM MUTHER F**CKER! I do understand that you do have the freedom to express yourself in any way you feel is necessary.

Believe me, I appreciate our freedom and individual rights, and the fight it takes to keep them, but this type of freedom will not be welcomed at the Big Springs event. I will express my freedom and individual rights and you will kindly be asked to cover up, remove or leave.

(This shouldn’t even be a topic that needs discussed. Would you wear that to Thanksgiving at Grandma’s house?)

If really want to put a stop to this. Take a picture of the individual and post it here and on Facebook of the FMHSC. I bet you it would stop.
Take a stand, don't rely on someone else to take care of it for you. You will have plenty of people to back you up on this.

I think the ultimate responsibility needs to be on the land owner, promoter and Dan. Kind of like the business that reserves the right to refuse service to anyone. The customers should not have to enforce that. Short of the friendly face to face suggestion our only real recourse if the folks who run the business don't choose to correct the issue is to do business somewhere else.

I have met the guys a few times and they are not jerks, just a little different. I think chances are if something was said they would understand and get it in check. However, It is not our place to run them off. Again, that is up to the guys in charge if they deem it necessary. And to be honest, if it comes to that so be it. I don't want to lose folks with kids because of one or two over expressive individuals. And since these are private events the 1st amendment does not really apply.

PK, I believe you should add to the race announcement your lack of tolerance for the said expressions. That way there will be no confusion.

Dan, you should do the same for the sake of FMHSC.

Just my thoughts.
GO TEAM LETKO!

dang it knew it! stupid obama.... Im not going to take pics and put them up on here to humiliate them. Im sure they are good people and are at church on the sundays that we dont race. I just hope that they might see the post and think about their choice and who its really impacting. Save those shirts for the freestyle MX crap where im sure that stuff is more acceptable.

It was brought to my attention on Sunday and I never did see the shirt. I was later told the gentleman had turned it inside out. If it were to arise again I will respectfully take care of it.
