ANA members - will you quit ANA if ACG prevails and Barry Stuppler is expelled?

I thought it would be interesting to see the likely reaction of forum members who are also ANA members if Barry Stuppler were to be expelled as a result of AccuGag's recent complaint, which is to be heard on March 20th (with a result expected by March 23rd).
I will terminate my ANA membership immediately should that happen. I do not want to be part of an organization that takes the position that someone cannot speak out against the effect of an "operation" like AccuGag on the hobby.

Opinions are one thing, slander and libel are another. I want to see a report and not support and allegations before I make that decision! Quiting ANA will hand over the keys to the vault to all other coin graders. Read the reports on Halperin and Hall from the FTC and follow up on the others before making that decision.

If they are actually going to hold a hearing to consider ACG's case, I would never consider joining the ANA! There, is that good enough!

I firmly believe in numismatics as the world's greatest hobby, but recognize that this is a luxury and without collectors, we can all spend/melt our collections/inventories.

After all, has anyone actually challenged ACG before the ANA?
Julian's right. This is a great opportunity for the opponents of ACG. I'm very curious to see how this unfolds!

It does not even have to be an expulsion, if any action is taken against Barry, including a repramand,
I will leave promptly. I will not support an organization that gives credit to the demonic forces of evil, its bad enough that the demon advertises in the Numismatist.

The reason the ANA is having this hearing is that it is required and it's a service to their members who have complaints...That's another reason to join the ANA, not one to keep from joining...

You are the organization.

It was a bit confusing to follow in that format, but, unless I missed something, it doesn't even look like Barry's auction.
Maybe it's an auction for the Magazine published by Barry in which he's printed some articles regarding ACG? Maybe I'm just confused, but, in any event: I still don't see anything whereby "Barry" states anything about ACG AND associates himself with being on the ANA Board of Governors.
Are you saying that if I particpate in one of his auctions, or a purchase on his website (neither of which states his position in ANA) that he should be prohibited from expressing any negative opinion regarding his experiences with a grading service?
I question the appropriateness of the ACG bounty offer!
