RE: Roberts rules of order?????
Thanks for cutting me a break...
I would like to make the observation that those who don't know their rights under, laws , roberts rules of order.... etc,
are the very ones that get their rights stepped on...and most of the time don't even know it.
And because of thier ingnorance ......the guys doing the stepping ....get away with it.
In gremlins situation.... the membership took action, because apparently
they knew the system(roberts rules) and did not allow ANYONE(including the very people they elected)
to bypass the process. Not all members are so educated.
Education is a great thing, this subject, Roberts rules of order,
which is included in better than 99% of the bylaws of AMA clubs,
is well worth the posting time and.......the education that comes with discussing it.
In reply to Davids( moderators) comments:
I believe that roberts rules came about..... because adults could not act like adults
when faced with being forced to do the will of the true majority that they themselves
were in opposition to.
I asked gremlin the questions...because his club was successfull in maintaining the "process" where others have failed.
And I can't talk about what happened in my club anymore,(per the moderators) so reading a short version what transpired
at his club might be enlighting. I do and will however repect gremlin's choice not to air any dirty
laundry , as the process of roberts rules of order worked as it was supposed to...problem resolved.
