Our B&H rep here Hershel should respond to this thread. And bring our concern back to B&H. I do all my shopping at B&H and would hate to switch companies.


If he smart Hershel will avoid this thread like the plague. It's a no win situation and nothing he adds will resolve an ongoing heated controversy. He'll just get peppered with a million questions he won't be able to answer

Wow. This is by far the most blatant and racist antisemitic comment I've ever read in this forum. You are a poor excuse for a human being. I pray to God that you have not produced any progeny to carry on your agenda of ignorance and hate.

It sure seems like it.


It may not appear to be in alignment with your beliefs, but Radio Hanoi was a sponsored propaganda machine. As is the Russian English language TV channel RT.

Al Jazeera may have an agenda, but so do other legitimate news organizations, for example certain Christian media organizations. That does not necessarily mean that they are overt propaganda operations, and that they do not deserve some recognition for what they do.

I am not suggesting that I agree with Al Jazeera's position, just that I feel they do a reasonable job of being a legitimate media organization.

Now this is not only a very poorly written response, but appears to be uninformed at best and antisemitic at worst.

So the steelworkers union having destroyed th steel industry in the United States and driven most large steel users either to right to work states or offshore is now trying to scrape up membership by unionizing B&H.
New York is an expensive heavily unionized bastion of left wing thought. It would behoove B&H to consider moving their entire operation to Atlanta, Baton Rouge, Phoenix or some other area with a significantly lower cost of living and doing business. They can keep a retail presence in NY if they wish but the bulk of their operations should move and let the corrupt unions grovel for more low hanging fruit.

Here's my take on news and google and Al Jazeera and food for thought about alleged labor issues at B&H and Adorama.

Al Jazeera is probably better than any number of mainstream U.S. news services and much less biased than U.S. entertainment/propaganda organizations that think adding "News" to their title makes them a news organization. There is precious little in the way or real or balanced news in the U.S. Even NPR simply reports whatever they are told with almost no real journalistic investigation or real presentation of opposite views.

To learn anything you need to take what you heard or read and then look for as many other divergent sources on the subject as you can find before you can have any confidence that you have a vague handle on the issue. In this day and age it is critical to remember that almost all government, political parties, business and special interests lie shamelessly about everything so that makes it much harder to determine what is really going on.

As far as the labor disputes, google reports give us an idea that there are possibly labor issues going on. We'll have to see what turns up and watch for different views as both the unions and management will be spinning (lying) about almost everything and the so called news organizations will simply be propagating what their profit minded bosses tell them to.

Yes, I know I'm a bit of a "Polly Anna."

:thumbup: :thumbup:, mostly! NPR / PBS have their problems, but they seem to be better than many, as does the BBC.

Please tell me that you are beyond the age of reproduction sir...? Because I weep for the future should you contribute such obviously flawed genetics to the gene pool.....
As for having a thought worth sharing - you have been found lacking.....


Could we have a little respect for tee square. I think this is our president incognito.

Perhaps you fill in for the back side of your horse when he is not present?
Let me speak plain - partner. I was born in Abilene, and raised all across Texas. Wherever oil flowed.
That does not preclude one from having enough dignity and respect for self and others to stand up when obvious insults based on something as vile as the comment to which you refer happen. Grow a pair - no need to wait any longer.
The internet seems to attempt to make men out of mice.
I am no mouse. And will not placate idiots. You have a choice. Now - be a big boy and do the right thing, and stand up when you see bigotry in action.
That which I am certain - if you are a true Son of The Republic of Texas - and your Momma raised you right - you know already.

It sure will be nice when you old Nazi sympathizers finally die off and take you various antisemetic and racist views with you.

Ya think? This guy should be banned. I can't believe Admin would allow such blatant racism.

You will be seeing no more of me until some action is taken.

How bad was the kick in the head cowboy? How bad can your reading comprehension be? Can you pass the competency test for an adult able to make decisions concerning your own safety? ( That requires an I.Q. of 70 )
I am anything BUT a Nazi. 6 million of my people couldn't be all wrong now - could they? And - WE were part of the settlers in the Hill Country.

So, grow up, and learn something now. Because you obviously missed high school during a brain absence.

BTW..Texas A&M...1981. You are welcome.

Helen, I can not blame you. Perhaps Admin is not yet aware of this hate monger. If they take no action on this I will likely stop posting myself since UHH will no longer be a photography forum I would want to be associated with.

No one forces an employee to stay. I have had great service from both B&H and Adorama for numerous years. I see no reason to change or even worry about it. When I stop getting great service, I will change suppliers.

I am really tired of whining by those who have a choice. The old saying of "if you work for a man, for goodness sakes work for him".
