Hey Folks ,,,
legally, <span style="color: #ff0000">cccdad </span>is on the wrong side of this issue and the 'law'. Plain &amp; simple, <span style="color: #ff0000">cccdad </span>has no legal authority to demand or ask for anyone's AMA card. This is apublic park owned by the people of that community and county, including <span style="color: #ff0000">cccdad </span>and the <span style="color: #ff6600">2.4Flyer </span>that irritates him so. What rules has this flyer violated? Is he getting drunk orhigh in and around the park? Is he loud and abusive towards others in this park? Is he threatening the safety of everyone around? Is he breaking any rules of the park or county? Is he breaking any AMA rules? Is the '2.4Ghz' radio that he is using interfering with the frequency of other flyers and causing accidents? If the answer isNONE of the above! Then <span style="color: #ff0000">cccdad</span>, you don't have a leg to stand on. As for the physical stuff, you may call the police and maybe have the<span style="color: #ff6600"> 2.4Flyer </span>arrested but ultimately hecan easily prove that you've been harassing him and the altercation was in self-defense. The court will dismiss the criminal case and afterwards <span style="color: #ff6600">2.4Flyer </span>will hire a lawyer and attempt to sue you and <u>maybe </u>the county for violating his civil rights.And <span style="color: #ff6600">2.4Flyer </span>willwin too.

This appears to be a rather interesting case of the old coming into conflict with the new. What was once a common practice of the 'board' to help facilitate a safe flying environment now comes a new technology thatfacilitates a flying environment that'seven more safer, without the 'board'. Out with the old, in with the new!
