Each act in and of itself is morally neutral. It is the context that determines it's morality. Taking a knife and cutting someone's chest open can be an act of extreme violence or a delicate surgical procedure. Intercourse can be an act of procreation, affection or rape.
Context is everything.
I read a few days ago about some kid being arrested for making "terrorist threats". He said he was going to shoot some students and teachers at his school. The cops were all over him.
There is this homeless guy in my neighborhood that is always talking about how people are out to get him. That he has a list and he's going to take each one of them out one by one. He always punctuates this with the grim statement, "Mark my words."
Yet the police do nothing. Why?
It's because he is a crazy person. Nobody takes him seriously. That's how it is with gh15. Nobody takes him seriously anymore. When he goes on his rants people just ignore him and carry on like you would do with a crazy person ranting on the street corner. I can't believe how naive I was. When I first started to suspect that gh15 was really a crazy person, that he wasn't a stable human being and had genuine mental health issues, and I started to very cautiously express my suspicion with others they would all laugh at me. "You're only figuring this out now, Pellius! Hahaha! Man, sometimes you can be so out of it." I was shocked to find that this was just common knowledge. People were on the board not because of gh15 but in spite of him. Someone put it so poignantly when he told me, "The gh15 board would be just perfect if we could just get rid of gh15." Most felt there was nothing knew he was adding to the board anymore. It was always the same old thing. Promoting the gh of the month. Ranting about kigs. Telling us the exact compound and dose someone was on. I often wondered that for a guy that was a pro and knew everything about hormones, being a god and all, how come it's only now he's is discovering that blue top Saizens are the ones to use and what everybody else is using. What Levrone, Yates, Coleman, Flex Lewis, Ramy are using when they are not on kigs, all -- except gh15 until he made these discoveries in 2013.
As a mod I always made it a point to read everyone of gh15's post. And that was a job in itself. I always had a tab opened on gh15's post history and would try to keep current everyday. But when I realize that gh15 played such a minor role on the board with serious members. That he was regarded as a minor annoyance and often an embarrassment. That people were on that board for each other and not because of gh15 I found myself skipping over a lot of his posts. Whenever I would see the word "kigs" I would scroll past it. When there was a rant about the war we were in I'd skip through. It was just getting harder and harder to take him seriously. What the members really thought of him and how stupid and how much he under estimated his board members. He really thought that people bought all his claims and braggadocio. He really, truly did.
So can you see why the board really didn't take these pics and threats seriously. Not just because it was and is done so routinely here, which incredibly no one here sees the connection. And it's not because me, Metal, Sapp, Ken, Wes ... are scumbags. We, like the rest of the board, simply didn't pay attention. gh15 is like the ranting lunatic on the street corner. He's making sounds but no one is listening to him or paying attention to him.
It took me a while. A long while. But I finally joined the rest of the board and just listened, posted, discussed and learned from the other members that really made the board. I had no desire to be a mod on that board and was relived when I was "fired". I removed myself from the politics. That was the "other" board. The other part of the board that the majority paid no attention to.
I didn't take his threats seriously because I didn't take him seriously anymore. No one did. No one does. It's not that we "turned a blind eye". We just ignore it. That's not even the right word because it implies that we made an effort. We ignore it in the sense that it didn't register. gh15 just stopped being a factor. It was like the adults in a Charlie Brown movie, "Womp, womp, womp."
Gh15 was the crazy person ranting on the street corner. We just walked on by and went about our business.
Hubris. He got too arrogant. He sense of self-importance was off the chart. He'd talk about muscles and looking good like it was the most important moral issue confronting mankind today. His narcissism and shallowness defies comprehension. Just listen to his reasons for threatening to destroy Valiant's life:
it just didn't hold me ...it was vey underdosed...neither MY STRNGTH nor MY LOOKS was where it should be....thank god I was on blue top saizen fda gh that kept me at some good looks but your trenbolona just didn't take it to the fly level with the blue top saizen ...it made me loose HARDNESS AND THICKNESS...IT MADE ME LOSE THE LOOK AND THE STRENGH
This is a man closing in on 50 years old talking about "his looks" wasn't where it should be. Only the miracle of the blue top Saizens and "trenbolona" kept some of his "good looks" and didn't take him to "fly level".
WTF? A middle age man whose competition days are long gone still obsesses over his body. That because someone's gear brought him to less than "fly level" she deserves to go to jail. He is in for a very sad and tragic old age.
Very few on that board are bad people. People just didn't pay attention to him anymore. Sure the Juniors did. That's why they are taking over the board. But the adults. They stopped paying attention to him. Nothing he says would ever come to fruitrition. This board, GetBig, will be up for as long as Ron wants it to and when he decides to end it gh15 will come out of the shadows and take credit for it.
So there was no blind eye turned or moral anguish over gh15. He wasn't even ignored. He just didn't register anymore. We had our own board at gh15. And gh15 had his.
