Ethics Question...OK or Crazy

[familytoad]

Maybe a little tough literal topic about intentionally ruining a card.
If it wasn’t posted on cardboard lovers site , it may have gone in a different direction.

The physical aspect aside from the OP, it’s a good question about the “feelings” you get about the players depicted on the cards.
I’m pretty sure that’s why ALL of us are here.

If you read a story about a hero, you might feel compelled to buy a card of that hero.
If you read a story about a heel, you can decide to NOT collect that guy. Or if your own OCD would allow you a set missing that miscreant. (Mine doesn’t)

To each his own. I’m glad this thread was started and while I can’t condone ruining a card , I understand the intentions.

Phil made an excellent comment about history. It is what it is. (And absolutely is way more complicated than we’ve learned in truncated articles and text books)
We are collecting history! Pretty darn cool IMHO!
