The reps made the best of two very bad choices.
See above.
I know this from my reps and the reps of other bases as told to me by friends from other bases. There is no question that happened. None.
Feel free to join Karnak and Falcon in defending that MEC administration. Lots of people here remember exactly what happened...despite this occasional attempt to revise history.
Almost all of it very one sided, and some flat out misleading.
Again, nobody said you were. You're the only one making that accusation as shown by the beginning of your post. Most of the DALPA apologists follow this exact same template. Throw out a completely false premise, then put forth a passionate fight against your own false premise. Imagine the coincidence.

There is no point arguing with you when all you do is insult people that disagree with you.
I wasn't forced into voting for anything, I understood the deal. I have never heard my reps say they were forced, duped or tricked into anything. This sounds like a made up story by people that were upset about losing a vote. CONSPIRACY!!!!!!
