wow! Just received the NARA minutes! It is amazing that one person can cause such a flury! It seems that John and his BOD have gone out of their way to make sure Rachid Lounici and other French Nationals can not be full members of NARA. If these changes had been made prior to the Rachid and John Garcia conflict it wouldnt stink so much. As it stands now it looks like an attempt by John and the current BOD to punish Rachid and Jimmy and keep them and other French Nationals from having the same rights as other NARA members. I know better than anyone that Rachid is a pain in the ass! He is his own worst enemy! But the rights of a NARA member should be the same for all members! If we are going to start taking away or restricting members rights, I think we should not allow any person that has a felony conviction for drug dealing in the USA be allowed to be a NARA member.
