DEFEND RURAL AMERICA
The Cause
Across this nation, OUR
NATIONAL TREASURY IS BEING STOLEN, SEALED OFF, OR
DISMANTLED. We cannot remain a sovereign nation, or a
prosperous nation, if we become dependent upon third
world countries for our very sustenance. Rural America
is not covered in the news, in TV shows, or Hollywood.
So it is easy to forget about, and become disconnected
from our roots.
RURAL AMERICA IS OUR
NATIONAL TREASURY ...
AND IT IS UNDER ATTACK ...
from within. Siskiyou County and the other counties
throughout the Klamath River Basin ― already decimated
by the spotted owl debacle and directly in the
crosshairs of the Wilderness Project ― are at ground
zero in the battle to defend the nation's food supply
and natural resources.
Big Government has already
pushed itself to the 99-yard line, with expectations of
making the final play in the imminent future. Yet like
most of Rural America, Siskiyou County does not have the
population, financial resources, or media support to
fight this battle by themselves. Underemployment is
already around 30%, and will get worse if Big Government
has its way.
The Launch
COME
STAND WITH RURAL AMERICA!
An all-hands-on-deck
gathering will be held
October
22nd in Yreka, California to form a unified
effort to stop Big Government from winning this battle,
and all subsequent battles across our nation. The
meeting will be held from
6:30P-8:30P at the Winema Hall at the Yreka fairgrounds.
Seating is limited to 400, so make sure to be on time to
insure a seat. The doors open at 6:00P to allow
sufficient time for registration. There is no charge.
There will be a debut of
Kirk MacKenzie's documentary film on Siskiyou County and
it's people, and a panel discussion to handle Q&A from
the audience. Sheriff Jon Lopey ― a local hero for his
defense of the community, the Constitution, and
coordination rights ― will be there. Sheriffs from
surrounding counties are also being invited.
Affected groups throughout
Northern California and Southern Oregon are coming.
Like-minded groups throughout the rest of California and
Oregon are invited. Attendees from as far away as
Montana are already committed to join us at this
historic event.
Solidarity
An objective of this event
is to create an alliance and unified front across
like-minded groups. If your organization wants to
support this event with promotion and attendance, we
welcome your support and will include you in the formal
press release to go out within the next two weeks.
Contact any of the organizers listed below.
The Bus Tour
For those coming from the
San Francisco Bay Area, an air-conditioned bus tour,
with bathroom facilities, makes the journey enjoyable
and relaxing, leaving Saturday morning and returning
Sunday evening. There will be 3 pickup points, the first
at 8:00A in Santa Clara, then one in the Peninsula, and
the last one in the Walnut Creek area.
The air-conditioned bus,
with bathroom facilities, makes the journey enjoyable
and relaxing.
The tour will include a
Sunday tour of the dams, lunch on the river, and an
on-site presentation of what is at stake. Passengers
have the option of spending Saturday night and Sunday
breakfast with local ranchers, who have agreed to open
up their homes, or stay the night at a local hotel. Due
to the generosity of the ranchers, Saturday dinner will
be free for the bus passengers, as well as Sunday
breakfast for those choosing to enjoy the overnight
ranching experience. Seating on the bus is limited to 43
people. RSVPs and pre-payment are required, so be sure
to make your reservations early. RSVP to Debbie
Bacigalupi at
dbacigalupi@gmail.com.
Cost: remarkably only $30
per person. This price is only good, however, for the
first 43 people.
