If the Power wasn’t in the Law, then why did the Judge Block it?

May17

The traitors in Congress told us that the NDAA didn’t give the power to lock us up indefinitely under the vague designation of associated forces.  A federal Judge thought, felt that it is necessary to at least temporarily block enforcement of the law.  Thank God Almighty that we still have a little bit of the rule of law left. 

There’s not much freedom left though.  We need to get rid of all the domestic traitors in Congress, because tyranny is growing daily.

Guilty Until Proven Innocent

May16

For the latest outrage, we can look no further than Monterey, TN. An innocent man, George Reby, was driving on Interstate 40 when he was pulled over for speeding by Officer Larry Bates. One of the questions asked by Officer Bates was if Mr. Reby was carrying any cash. Since Mr. Reby was going to be doing some business at a later point in his travels, he happened to be carrying $22,000. Since he was carrying this amount of money, Officer Bates confiscated it. You read that right. Mr. Reby’s money was taken by the police officer. Why you may ask? According to the officer, it’s because this money could have been used to buy drugs.

Officer Bates admitted that it isn’t illegal to carry cash but expressed the concern about the money being used for drug trafficking. When confronted with the fact that there was no proof that this was the intended purpose, Officer Bates replied, “And he couldn’t prove it was legitimate”.

So there you have it; the War on Drugs turning innocent, law-abiding citizens into suspected drug-smugglers. Is this the America we want our children to grow up in? An America where the simple act of carrying too much money can put you at odds with local law enforcement? Where you are guilty until proven innocent?

“Drug use is a serious problem and is harmful to the users and their families and friends.” states Jay Polk, Chair of the Libertarian Party of Tennessee, “But is it really the government’s business how we conduct our lives? The government seems to think so and has gone as far as presuming guilt where there is none. Not only is this policy more harmful to the Liberties of innocent individuals, it’s indicative of an out-of-control government that doesn’t hesitate at the boundaries of private property.”

From the Libertarian Party’s platform:

1.2 Personal Privacy

Libertarians support the rights recognized by the Fourth Amendment to be secure in our persons, homes, and property. Protection from unreasonable search and seizure should include records held by third parties, such as email, medical, and library records. Only actions that infringe on the rights of others can properly be termed crimes. We favor the repeal of all laws creating “crimes” without victims, such as the use of drugs for medicinal or recreational purposes.

The Libertarian Party is the third largest political party in the United States, which is active in all 50 states and has more than 250,000 registered voters.

Union County Mayor Drops PlanET

May16

Activist Tommy Helms requested and received a letter from Union County Mayor Micheal (Mike) Williams stating that Union County doesn’t wish to participate in PlanET.

Interestingly the Mayor, Mike Williams, was told he wasn’t a bonafide member of the Republican Party and couldn’t be on the ballot as a Republican to run for State Senate.  This comes after Republicans have passed resolutions “exposing” Agenda 21.

If a Woman with a Cane can Stand to Defend Freedom, why can’t you?

May16

In 2007 when I started attending Commission meetings, there was a soft spoken women who would speak at many of the meetings and ask a lot of intelligent important questions about resolutions affecting our property and wallets.  She is a retired teacher, who crams a lot of substance in her 3 minute remarks to the County Commission.  Each month she studies the Commission packet and when she sees something of concern she prepares her remarks and delivers them eloquently and faithfully month after month.

That lady is Carol Ross and she continues raising important questions to this day, even now as she requires a cane to walk.  I mean nothing derogatory in mentioning the cane, quite the opposite.

If a woman with a cane can stand for freedom month after month, why can’t you?

The 11th Commandment: Thou Shalt Vote Republican

May16

Looks like all the “social” conservatives are getting their rears in line by endorsing the flip flopping wet noodle Mitt Romney.  After all Reagan said not to speak ill of fellow Republicans, even though power hungry Republicans been been for months. 

Now conservatives are suppose to forget that Mitt Romney proposed ObamaCare before Obama, and that he has taken both sides of nearly ever other issue.  It’s more important to be on the winning team right?  Wrong.  Until Americans start voting based on principles, we’re going to continue getting more of the same, just with a different label.

Conservatives stop making excuses for Mitt Romney simply because he’s not Obama.  Even Mitt Romney doesn’t know where he stands on the issues.  When Mitt gives a speech he’s liable to have a different position at the end of it than he had at the beginning.  It’s whatever Goldman Sachs and the globalist tell him.  He’s a puppet, the same as Obama.  The differences between Willard Mitt Romney and Barack Hussein Obama are so minor, it’s not worth the headache of trying to figure out where they actually differ.

I am sure the globalist are laughing at how they’ve been able to give the people two robots who are nearly identical, while Americans are gullible enough to believe they actually have a choice.

Dangerous Tourism Fascist Development Authority Close to Passage

May12

Tona Monroe and Carol Ross spoke to the Commission on Tuesday about the potential dangers of the creation of the Smoky Mountain Tourism Development Authority.  Both have written about it in the past. 

The need for this Authority, and what will be gained from it, have not been explained to the citizens.  Speak out now, or get ready to endure fascism (crony capitalism) in Blount County, with your hotel tax dollars.
