I agree that these operators weren't AMA members. My point is, these people came here to RCU and other discussion forums. We as AMA members had a responsibility to do one of two things:
1) welcome them and make it a requirement to join AMA
2) shun them
We did neither, and here we are with the Federal Government breathing down our necks.
