[QUOTE=cerealkilla';2891950]Thanks Leggat, for demonstrating the exact kind of short-sighted relativism that I was pointing at. You offer nothing in terms of a new or insightful perspective.
Questioning the moral ambiguity of one act does not necessitate answering critiques for all others. Are there no better ways to promote the sport? I can pick out many which do not entail the needless elements involved here.
Sheesh is right. Dare to question something, and dare to critique the image of the sport and challenge people to do better, and some people get really defensive really fast. I'm really not sure what you're rushing to protect here. My focus is on promotion of the sport. I guess if you think that we can't do that without chasing animals and big boobs, I pity your lack of vision.
I hope you don't enjoy any of the big mountain ridng style movies. Untouched desert slopes ridden by guys all the while dropping anchor and skidding to and fro! Damaging slopes and making them susceptible to errosion and decay.
Or, Brandon Semenuk's segment where they destroyed a nice rolling and lush piece of dirt with big ole scar outlf a mountain bike trail, just to film "one shot".
My point wasn't narrow minded at all, but rather I can dissect anything and be outraged by it.
No matter what is done, there will be haters.
