Here is my concern:
Scenario 1
Let's say there are 2000 falconers in NA. All 2000 belong to this one organization.
Scenario 2
There are 2000 falconers. 1000 belong to one organization and the other 1000 belong to another organization.
Which organizations will be the strongest? Obviously the one in scenario#1.
My personal feeling is that if the AFC and its members divide North American Falconers into two smaller groups, it has weakened our position and influence. That's why I couldn't conscientiously join myself. I know many here feel differently.

Treat everyone you meet with dignity and respect....but have a plan to kill them just in case
