With all due respect, dissing the dealers for being too nervous or frightened to go up against our unstable mental case AG lady and her unlimited legal resources right away on 7/20 is not very fair. You know she can put any of them out of business at will, bankrupt them and tie them up in court for years. While her power over individuals may be questionable, her power over the dealers is crushing. I don't believe that any MA dealer, including the most successful ones, has the resources to go up against her all alone and there was no effective MA dealer organization in place to do so.
They did what they had to do under the circumstances. No question that some reacted very poorly while others had some balls. Too bad for me that I picked the wrong ones to visit as the
**** was hitting the fan. But they were all just trying to protect themselves as best they could in the face of full blown tyranny. I don't blame them one bit.
