Scooto vlog

Post by honkerman »

The world of moto vlogging needed a scooto vlogger to offset the madness.

Warning, there is momentary "religious" content in the video. If you're that thin skinned that such things offend you or make you feel threatened, don't watch. :D

Paul,

Love your videos, so jealous of where you live and get to ride, hate the Christian shit. At 8:29 you promised not to preach anymore. Will you make good on that promise so I can continue to watch your vlogs? Please let me know; otherwise we're done here.

How very tolerant of you. :D

My beliefs are deeply held. It is inevitable that I will talk about them in my own forums, be they blogs, vlogs or whatnot. No one is forcing you to watch or read anything and you were given fair warning of the content.

I did not post this with the intent of it becoming a negative post, nor with the intent of starting a religious discussion, but it seems some people cannot resist the opportunity to diminish others. I stated up front that there was religious content in my vlog and you have chosen to make an issue of it anyway.

I will leave it at that and I bear you no ill will.

Hmmm..seems fine when I'm out riding. Could be the unique perspective of a camera. I'll check it with an aiming screen. Thanks for lookin out fer me dude!

You are certainly right: Things change. And folks don't like it. Too bad. We are all helpless against it.

As for the religious aspect of this vid--well, it's your vid and you can say what you like. I would much rather hear that than some kid with a three word vocabulary--one of the word starts with F and the other with S (I'm not sure what the third word is, it gets used so seldomly)--running around on a Hyabusa giving the finger to any poor schmuck that doesn't meet his standards of cool.

I hope you find a way to upgrade your camera a little. Doesn't have to be a Gopro.

Thanks for that. Perhaps my tag line could be (a la Robin Hood men in tights): unlike other moto vloggers, I have a prodigious vocabulary. :lol:

I do have another camera coming. I got a gift card a bit ago and was able to get something cheap with a good star rating, so I hope it works out.

Unfortunately religious discussions breaks forum rules so this tread is locked for now. I know you posted a warning about the content so it's up for review by the modsquad.

Johnny --

This sort of intolerance is what's wrong with the world today. Do not hate others for their beliefs.

I'm completely agnostic, but can respect the beliefs of others, and am not offended by someone else's beliefs unless they are actively pressing them on me or criticizing me. Paul was doing neither of these remotely.

Please keep your hatred to yourself, and consider yourself officially warned.


Paul --

Thank you for sharing, and thank you for your level-headed response. :)
