Until the current leadership gets their head out of the sand and starts fighting FOR US, instead of playing the FCC's patsy, I will not give them another dollar. When the boys came back from DC and posting to the lists that "CALEA" and the reporting mandates were good things, I could no longer in good conscience give them another dollar to use to use AGAINST US. Whatever they did or said in DC on that topic, IN NO WAY REPRESENTED ME OR THE INTERESTS OF MY BUSINESS OR MY FUTURE. When I saw certain WISPA leadership glom onto the idea of a CALEA mandate being an opportunity to extract more money and blackmail more memberships, I was immediately convinced that they were in it FOR THEM, and not us. I even saw posting by someone who said that CALEA would be good for WISPA. Not good for the members = good for WISPA? Hell NO! I will not play that game. We got local, state and federal governemnt playing that game, why would I voluntarily add WISPA to it? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
