Is this for real? If it is, alot of things NOW add up. I see now why Mark Bundick will NOT take a position on Jerome's actions and impact to model rocketry ... Mark is probably receiving, "free samples" from Jerome to keep his mouth shut ... its a sad day in rocketry ...


You need to have your medication adjusted. Also, you may notice that it's expired.

Yes, it's real. DOn't know if Jerry renewed, but he has been a member for at least 2 year IIRC. Which means he'll soon be (or already is) elligible to run for Trustee. Which is NOT to be taken as an endorsement...

Bob Kaplow NAR # 18L TRA # "Impeach the TRA BoD" >>> To reply, remove the TRABoD!

I hope it never comes to that. This WOR clown is just another worthless rocketry-hating anon troll.

Considering the member number, he's been around a lot more than two years unless he let his membership lapse & rejoined with his old number.

Shockie called for my resignation.

Shockie has slams the NAR BoT on ocassion too. I think people are startng to ignore him.

"Regulating" things outside of NAR/TRA jurisdiction is not "self-regulation".

But it is common practice (especially at TRA).

Jerry/DOT Jerry/ATF Frank/ATF etc

Jerry replied:

Motor certs ARE within the jurisdiction of TRA/NAR. If you want your motors certified, you follow their rules. YOUR CHOICE.

So which is it on ATF in particular?

outside TRA jurisdiction, OR,

if you want your motors certed you follow their rules, including demanding permits specifically stated as NOT required by the federal regulation?

And a JUDGE?!

Jerry

If you want your motors certed by TRA or NAR, you follow TRA/NAR rules. YOUR CHOICE.

perhaps RAY....... the NAR ByLaws state:

Section 11: For conduct prejudicial to the objectives, reputation, or property of the Association, or for failure to observe and abide by the Safety Code(s) of the Association in all model rocket activities, a member of any class may be censured, suspended, or expelled ............

So ask yourself this, was JI's "conduct" ie shipping motors illegally without hazmat "prejudicial to the Objectives" of the ASSN ?

Some might say yes they were....

It also maybe that JI broke California State Fireworks Laws when he "illegally exported motors without hazmat" from California to (?) Maryland.... I'm pretty sure that JI, USR, DPT none have a CA State Exporters License.....

If a person wanted to create a little havoc in JI's life a person could call the CSFM and send them the URL about JI's DOT fine and let them do their own investigation into JI/USR/DPT.....

Would it not be ironic if the so-called self-proclaimed "father of high power rocketry" not only had his NAR/TRA membership stripped from him, but also his CA State Pyrotech license too?......

Imagine, JI not being to do anything rocketry related......what a fate to behold..........

"self-regulation".

Without even getting into a pro- or anti- Jerry argument, I have a real problem with the above, just in principle. The point of 'double jeopardy', in my mind, doesn't mean that every possible entity gets a crack at you for the same crime -- it means that the government, overall, can't try you for the same act twice. I've had a problem with this for years, with cases on both sides of the political spectrum.

Jerry hosed himself on this, IMHO, because of the action of marking the box 'model aircraft parts' -- but he got caught, and paid the price (or WILL pay it ). Keeping this going as a "let's see how many government agencies can get Jerry" seems to be fundamentally wrong, whether you like Jerry (or his actions) or not.

Something about a golden rule comes to my mind.

When I've done something not right to or about someone, someting bad happens sooner or later.

When I've done good things to or about someone , good things seem to happen.

This just can't be fate.

.

God help us one and all if that were the case.

jerry does not have a Ca. state Pyrotech license. he never did.

Then you can post a scan of it.

So you're saying that the touchstone of your belief in NAR/TRA's "concept of self-regulation" is whether or not they take some sort of public, official "anti-Jerry" position?
