Kay Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 What is condescending about calling what YOU consider a guard a dance troup? What I see is all dancing in these modern shows so why can't I call them dance groups without being accused of being condescending. Is there something degrading about the term dance troupe? The Pequa Squas were a color guard! First off, it was the Pequa Squaws, and they were defunk before I started marching there, and I started in the late 70's. Nothing degrading with calling a dance troupe a dance troupe, but a guard on the field is not one. They spin equipment, march and yes sometimes add body movements, aka dance. It's called evolution, perhaps you missed a step? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunrifle Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Kay. Thank you for correcting me on my spelling of Pequa Squaws. I see nothing in the definition of color guard that speaks of dancing. And they march? When was the last show you attended? I'm all for evolution especially when it comes to calling an ace an ace and a spade a spade. Too bad you did not march with the Squaws. You would know what a color guard is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveChina Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Regardless of the denials, SunRifle's condescension and disrespect need not be any more glaring if you ask me - (and yes, I realize no one did). "..SO CALLED DRUM CORPS.." and "..dance troupes.."? Really? Please. But that's to be expected of someone who harbors bitterness about being unable to keep up with the activity, thinks what THEY did in THEIR time needs to be continually trumpeted as the height of the drum corps activity, and who probably still has a rotary phone at home. Sorry. This stuff gets tiring for me. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunrifle Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Thank you DaveChina. I have always been a fan of your rude and obnoxious posts on the defunct alumni forum which was actually closed down because of people like you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveChina Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 (edited) Thanks Frankie boy. By the way. Those forums have been up and running without pause since they opened in 2007. You were probably banned. OK folks, I didn't intend to veer this thread off so far to the dark side. I made my point and won't be responding to bonehead anymore.

Sunrifle Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I was referring to the forum that was run by the ex cop you hated and I believe that you were banned! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegalEagle50 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Too bad you did not march with the Squaws. You would know what a color guard is. And this is why I said to you in a different thread the way you speak to people is done in such a way that it is like we are supposed to be apologizing for when we were born or when we marched. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
