As someone who has sent in an authorization card in the past, I'm more than willing to have a respectful, fact-based discussion over the matter. I never renewed because I didn't feel the tone, message, or the overall DPA mission was the best direction for this group. I formulated a big part of that opinion on TC's' communiques.

My position was strictly that until the DPA changes it's tone and the founder, TC, steps down, there is no way I can throw my support behind them. The response I received was directed as a slight against my juniority. I'd love to get behind an in house union, but thus far I've been unimpressed with most of my interactions with DPA members.
