If you join an organization you are obligated to follow its rules. As a
member you can also advocate change. I have found that in many cases
somebody read in a book that the only way to do something is x so they
adopted x. In MSAR there are few absolutes, and most of them apply to people
behavior, not animal behavior. Does this organization have a helmet rule?
How about drinking and riding or driving? Keeping minors out past curfew on
school nights? Abiding by the child labor laws? These are somewhat important
and often ignored.
