Not sure if any of you saw this, but figured I would point it out. Bringing awareness only, not advocating for any kind of actions that could be seen as retaliatory towards the group creator.

    The creator of that group is well aware of this group. She has heard from many of us time and again in response to the PMs we have received from her and has seen her comments modded here time and again. Unless I am mistaken, she is currently blocked from this group. She has an agenda that she is bound and determined to advance. Frankly, I'm glad to see that she has found an outlet and hope that the creation of her group signals a change to her current MO.

    Wow, it's such a popular group! So far there's only 1 person posting. I think we can all guess who that is...

    All I see is an *kitten* that is completely defined by her hatred. She's right though. Half the people that I know that tried CrossFit are dead now.

    Also, I thought about joining this group just to post, but this woman is looking for a fight. It isn't like any information that I could ever present to her will change her mind. I am going to keep an eye on it to see if the group grows. It could be entertaining.

    IDK if she's looking for a fight, because I posted and she just deleted it.

    BTW my post was "FACT -- there are more injuries in soccer and running than their are in olympic lifting and crossfit."

    I did the same thing. She deleted me AND blocked me from the group. :laugh:

    All I said was something to the effect of "says the woman who has never been to a Crossfit box or participated in a WOD. Give it up Health_Gal. Go knit a sweater or quilt a blanket of your cats or brush your back hair. Crossfit ain't going anywhere so find a new hobby." She couldn't possibly have been offended!!

    Thanks for finding the excellent gif for this! Also I'm enjoying the fact that she created the group and even folks that aren't CrossFitters are trolling that group (and trolling it hard!)

    I will admit: this afternoon has been wildly entertaining.
