Isn't that really the problem? You did the unpardonable sin of
thinking for yourself and not following the dictatorship of those
at the top of the organization.  Haven't you realized that only the
leadership of NFB has the right to think.  If you are not a leader
then you are not suppose to think; you as a member, not a leader,
are suppose to be a dumb blind sheep lead around by the nose by the
leadership and have no thoughts that conflict with the preached
philosophy of the organization.

It appears that your intelligence has threatened the leadership.
You had the nerve to think, to use your brain for something other
than to preach their double talk of independence with threats of
legal action if they don't get their way.  Look at what they call
independence and see just how independant most of those who preach
the philosophy really are and make up your own mind.

Looks like to me they really did you a favor and payed you a
complement for your ability to think for yourself.
