Once your old enough perhaps you will show people a certain amount of respect...perhaps not. I will defend the gummit and institutions when they deserve it from reckless accusations.

Some of us are tired of people taking risks and then we taxpayers have to send people to bail them out. After the people risk their lives to save these risk takers then you come in and criticize and impugn them. That is when some of us say enough is enough.

Now were trying to save some thrill seekers on Mt Hood who can tell everyone they climbed it in the middle of winter. Keep an eye out, you can bet the SAR will make a mistake somewhere for you to impugn.

The Mount Hood situation is completely different. Those people made very foolish decisions to attempt a rapid ascent and descent this time of year. I feel very bad for SAR having to go out in these conditions. I know they will do an exceptional job - their track record over the years is excellent.
