You guys have no idea how many times I had to re-write the questions i posted on JKF in order to censor out my frustrations. Ugh! I figured if I asked legit, honest questions, perhaps I'd get a reply. All I (and we) got was a bunch of runaround.

I'm also very tight with the guys at Rebel and will try to get more insight from them, a "sponsor's" perspective if you will, next week.

Don't bother. All his sponsors are in full support of him and some are ready to blame me for the mess. Trust me, I've been doing some asking around.

Well I have read just about every word posted about this issue at multiple websites.

My take on it is that he some dude with cognitive dissonance that allowed him to pretend what he was doing wasn't shady. In his mind, scamming companies for parts for "awareness" was justified. He then pushed the issue, and unfortunately (for him) it has backfired [clarification: I'm glad he was found out]. I'm sure he really does "support the troops" (who doesn't though), but showing up to a few jeep events or car shows with a banner and a jeep with free parts doesn't really do anything to help anybody.

The silly thing is about the whole awareness thing is that awareness for veterans issues is at an all time high. There are multitudes of charities out there, which personally I think is a bit overkill. When I donated money, I only donate to proven charities... AND I AM A VETERAN (22 Years Air Force). [Clarification 2: This does not mean I think all small or new charities are shady, just that without personal knowledge its safer to donate to other more well known charities]

You know who I feel sorry for.... JCR and his other sponsors who I think got taken in, and his daughter. Of course his daughter jumped into defend her father, but unfortunately I think she is either naive or uniformed.

Unfortunately there is no shortage of people willing to take advantage of "sympathy" populations to make money or gain attention (several damning links were posted on the JK-Forum thread)... and veterans is just one of them.

Just my two cents.

And before anyone says "thank you for your service"... no... I served because I wanted too, it wasn't a sacrifice, it was a privilege. Thank you to this country and the Bill of Rights who gave me an opportunity to serve a great cause.

Agreed! Yup! Yup! Yup!
Wounded Warriors for me... At least they are legit.

True, JCR was quick to come out in support of him on the other forum.

I think the poster was talking about the Wounded Warrior Project which is a different organization that whatever WFTW is (why do these "charities all sound alike).

The Wounded Warrior Project is a valid large organization that actually donates substantial organizations and does a lot of good things.

This is the problem with all these other fly by night organizations, they detract from the real ones.

Oh, I got that. He's basically saying that WFTW is legit and that the Wounded Warrior Project is not.
 
JFC

This jackass can't even keep his shit straight from page to page:


From the already existing "about" page:*


Do you make any money with the Fallen Heroes Jeep?
No, and we would never accept any money for our time (yes, we have been offered before and turned it down many times).

From the newly created Q&A page:

Q: Do you personally collect any money for charity?

A: We have only done so on one occasion.

Please for the love of God will this guys sponsors (including JKF) just call a spade a spade and cut him loose?
 
Holy Shit that was a lot of catching up! Still not all the way done!! I really don't even have the words anymore for this fuck. I began to write a long drawn out post with all my opinions but I realize none of it will matter because people's minds are already made up. This asshat and all of his minions have upset me and whatever it is we can do to take him down I want in. I will be in phoenix in a couple weeks and you can bet I will be inquiring further. :yup:
 
Ok, looks shady to me.... again I call bull shit!!!
No one charity is perfect and I hope WWP doesn't end up screwing up and failing our trust, but as they say the proof is in the performance...

I had no intentions on bad mouthing the sponsors as I figured they were mislead and lied to like everyone else but I have lost all respect for JCR now.

JCR hung out with Robert for several days in Moab this

But wait! Robert said he was only there for one day. Who is lying now?
