We have moderation

Down in Flames before it begins
The last week has proven interesting..... anyone that speaks up is being accused of being in my camp.  Folks are getting kicked out.  Posts deleted.   Moderation is the new norm. The best part is I and my buddies in this situation are referred to as the Wolves!  Of course we are; some just figured this out??  And folks, if we are wolves, then 'they' are sheep!  And to top it off,  the Sheep Weak .. I mean.. .'bike week' ( that bike reference still makes me laugh my ass off ...  few hundred bikes roll in for a few days...  how is that 'bike week'? )  Anyways.....is 'on for 2019!' . ..OMG!  Break out the calendars.  Lock in the dates. Call the hotels for reservations!  Wait.. which hotel?  Motel 6 down by the public park?   Stay tuned...it's going to be HUGE.  The bar has been set!:"With this much notice I wonder how much better I can outdo myself from the past two previous years"   Do you want me to answer that?   Selling cerveza out of a cooler like they do in Mexico and calling it a Bar, in a rundown parking lot , having a couple of bikes show up for a couple of days and then calling it a 'bike week'  is outdoing 2018!

Okay..okay..... back to the subject at hand.  The fun began when some guy named Neil out of Omaha questions the whole dealership failure and puts it right out there for all to see.  He asked where everything would be happening... what's there for sale.. whatever. .. the answer was as follows.  Forget that the locks have been changed.  Forget there has been zero business there since last year .  Forget that Indian Motorcycles may NEVER be sold out of this location in the future.  
Neil did nothing more than state the obvious; and got a stupid answer in return. Well.. that didn't last long.
Then ol Indio boy starts dancing and literally accuses Neil of trying to make him look stupid.   Neil didn't have to; he managed that all on his own.   Folks, OF COURSE Polaris is NOT going to do business with this failure.  EVERYONE involved in it .. knows this .  WHY would they?  They are a multi-billion dollar Publicly held company and they have finally rid themselves of this mess... well .. almost .. few more months and all will be known publicly....   Hell, I guarantee if I walked in there with Millions in cash or financing , as a current Polaris Stockholder ( which I am) , hard core owner of the brand ( which I am) .. and someway , somehow .. .Indio was part of my team ... they'd laugh me out the door.  Period! That ship has sailed and never coming back to port!  So, shame on Neil for speaking his mind and asking valid questions.   Now all his  posts on it are deleted .. and .. he's no longer in the group.  Take that Neil! What were you thinking?   Did you expect the truth?  We all know how this plays out.

After Neil spoke up , then folks  started asking dumb questions right on cue.  Well, not Tim ... Tim in a PC manner asks .. are you a failure?  Well, yes ...  IMTC is gone; forever.  There is no funding. It all got pissed away.  Now, Indio boy continues to point fingers at the ex GM .. but the GM isn't the one with lawyers chasing him down.  Indio boy NEVER had the capital to run this place.  Now, that capital is gone and the blame game is on.  And this is all in the courts.  Well, not Judge Judy's court.  Who in their right fucking mind would do that?  Hahaha.. well.. I can think of one person.


Tim is still in the group .. but ...   whoops... all the posts on it and comments are GONE.   PC or not, it didn't go over well.  Tim, what were you thinking doing this publicly ....  posts DELETED!  Take that!

Now the momentum is up.   Others are chiming in.   Some prodded a lil' last year...  went quiet.. and are back to asking legit questions.  They appear to be back in the game and asking legit questions about where the funds went in 2016.  Questions are being asked about 2017.    The answer given was something along the lines of they are now acting like Rick Lossner .. or in the Rickkcir tribe .. or something like that .   Kudos!   Many of us say "good job!".. That's the point!    Where DID all the money go?? I thought some had  slipped down that slippery slope but it appears they've regained  footing and asking LEGIT questions.  Well...  wait...what questions..  they got DELETED!  What were they  thinking!?   Well at least they didn't get kicked from the group.   But, for how long?   We all know that group exists for the purpose of one person's claim to fame.  Well.. most of us.

Indio.... lets be straight about one thing.  Nobody gives a fuck about the taxes.  We knew they weren't done last year so we pointed out the obvious; COMPLETE THEM!  Who cares? Well, the IRS does.   So we recommend you continue to FINALLY do them.   What we do CARE about is... where did all the money go?   The IRS only gives a fuck that it got spent and not lining pockets.   WE care about HOW it was spent.   WHERE did it all go?  How much change was left over for............ the kids?

The 2018 event is dead.   Indio threw in the towel. Literally. His own words.  Too busy scrambling to fix the mess he created?   Now there's a 2019 event?   Announced EIGHTEEN months out?   Who the fuck does that ?   This is a JOKE!   How many weeks or months until Polaris slaps him for the Official Indian Motorcycle headdress used?  And it's being advertised in conjunction with a dealership that is no longer in business.  It's just a ploy to drag things along yet another year; to keep the sheep lined up... baited until ...    ?  But .. don't post that in the 'group'.  Rumor has it ...   MODERATION is turned on.   Indio boy himself said.. on this Blog .. "Turn off the Moderation.  Keep it real".  Well.. not if you're pointing out that Bike Week is dead.  IMTC is dead.   The whole ordeal in the end... was a failure.  And that is on the shoulders of Indio.  Not his GM.  Not his staff.  Not folks that questioned the Charity finances.   It's on him.  Business 101.  Well, that's assuming one ever took a business class.... it's become obvious ... someone never has.


Final thought.   Different Subject, sort of.  I had an informative discussion with someone this week on why things went the way they did in 2017.   The answer given me was I called them and others like them .. . Sheep.   Folks, this is NOT true.  For the hundredth time ( okay .. tenth) ..   back in late June of 2017 I wrote a blog post about the sheep .  That post set things in motion that I never could have imagined.  Confusion set in and Indio boy spun my blog post to create an environment where I was the bad guy and he the good guy.  Somehow, it was was spun anyone attending the event was a sheep.  Folks, re-read the blog post!  It's NOT what I said.  In fact, when I realized the story spin going on , I followed up with this comment
"Here we go .... BTW.. The SHEEP are not those that attend the event. I've got friends attending the event. The SHEEP are those that don't know the promoter, but follow blindly. The SHEEP are those that will never attend the event, but gather in the group bantering. The SHEEP are those that comment on posts that are not facts. The SHEEP are those .... never mind... The SHEEP wander aimlessly.....Looking forward to seeing friends and family up there in August. Why I always went up ..."
To be honest, I'm surprised this continues to come up.   But on a positive note, we've had people come from the dark side ( admitted they were sheep ) when they realized what was REALLY going on and now some of our biggest supporters.   R&R mc, which was jokingly came about with  Indio boy attempting to throw two of us under the bus, has become bigger than just two guys.  It's Dozens of people actively.   It's a mindset.  A movement.   And it's mission has become one of enlightening folks of the truth.   And our hope is the folks that are actual 'sheep'....    are aware of the facts, not the BS that's being pushed on them via social media by a single person.   We are still shocked when folks out there appear to be unaware of the reality of the entire situation. So, we continue to put it out there.

Fact Check:  WAIT?  You don't believe any of this?  Do you live in MN? Visiting MN? Much of this is in the courts; you can look it up on any records terminal in the state, not just Washington County.  (82-CV-17-4109). Search on someones name and watch it ALL come up.  It’s all public record. You can read supporting documents.  Know the Truth.  Be a Wolf not a Sheep!

Let me be the first to say, looking at all the links you added to the post, sure makes me glad I am retired so I can fiddle through these. I found myself going back and re-reading several times just to get re-acquainted. It is amazing why can a simple question not be answered truthfully? What does AE minus the W continue to feed the flock? Does he want to stay relevant, does he want to continue to boost his ego? I would guess that if he were to just stop the stories, lies and misinformation campaign and just come out and say I am sorry everyone would go away. Best would be if he were to go away, leave social media, leave the state or country. Go to CA and reside in the sanctuary state. I thought it was about to happen with mention of the end of a 15 year run as a business owner. All of a sudden in an attempt to stay relevant we have a posting of a sale. Interest in starting a new investment group. Looking for help securing a partner for a reboot of the dealership. I heard it was going to be a new multi-brand site, like Tousley or Motoprimo. Makes you wonder if U-Haul and Triumph were booted vs. scooted?

So, let's look at the case number. Not much info other than a defendant (AE minus the W) and 2 plaintiffs. Lots of activity, but no real substance. I understand to get more detailed information (affidavits, documents, evidence), you have to physically go and pull it up on a screen. If you wanted copies, it would cost you a per sheet fee. Wonder how much I can get if I take the $$ saved by no BW 2018, not travel expense (hotels, gas, food). Being it is gubmint related, probably not far, but $235 is a good start. Wonder if that is deductible, since I am looking for documents related to a charity? Let me see what I can find in Racine County.

If I was in the area.. .I'd have to bag a lunch and make a day of it... Hell, I'd pull out the cash and print a stack of that shit.... Too back you can't just export it in PDF format.. or.. can you?

OK - just got back from a government building with access to court stuff. What a cluster 'F'. You need very specific info to get access to the right filings. 1 - You cannot do a .pdf print. You have two options, take a photo of the screen or pay to print. 2 - There is some VERY interesting documentation with this case. You see all the documents filed, which you do not see on-line. Quite a bit of $$ has been spent keeping things going and I am guessing whomever gets this property, will have to pay those fees. NOW, if this case were the only one, I would have been back sooner. You read about the case in MN, then OK but within the last year, more issues. Weekend detention at the local county corral. Court time, DANCO issued (2) then dropped (1). All sort of orders to do this, do that. Cant do this, or that. If that were not enough another one. I thought this stuff only happened on 48 Hours, Dateline NBC "To Catch A Predator", Live PD, NatGeo. I could get very specific, but don't know how far to drag this blog into the muck

Me personally .. I've been arrested twice in my life. Been sued once. They were ALL ... trivial. A joke. But this guy ..... It's like when you hear about a drunk guy killing people in a car wreck and you find out he's got like 8 DUI's... and you're thinking ... .WTF?! This guy is a mess! This reminds me of that.. .well.. without the dead bodies and passed out guys in their own puke
