03/26/10-Copy of a letter from Congressman Dean Heller (R-NV) about protecting our children:

March 29, 2010
Mrs. Catana Barnes
7900 N Virginia St Spc 274
Reno, NV 89506-8769
Dear Mrs. Barnes:
Thank you for contacting me to express your views on legislation to protect children from sex offenders. I appreciate hearing from you about such an important issue.
As a father and grandfather, I know the importance of protecting children from predatory adults. I believe that as child predators find new ways to exploit children, we must work to adapt our laws to keep pace with the changes in technology and ensure the health and safety of our nation's greatest asset - our youth.
On July 27, 2006-the 25th anniversary of the tragic abduction and murder of six-year old Adam Walsh-President Bush signed into law the Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act (P.L. 109-248), of which I was a proud co-sponsor. I worked closely with John Walsh, Adam's father, to ensure this important legislation passed the Senate, and I continue to support greater protections for our children. Among its many important provisions, this law established a national sex offender registry to make it easier for local law enforcement to track sex offenders and prevent repeat offenses. The law also authorizes much-needed grants to help local law enforcement agencies establish and integrate sex offender registry systems.
You may also be interested to know that I cosponsored the PROTECT Our Children Act, which was signed into law on October 13, 2008. This bill helps law enforcement use new technology to track individuals who trade child pornography on the internet. The PROTECT bill creates a task force within the Department of Justice and gives resources and training to local and federal law enforcement so they can use this vital information to bring predators to justice.
I am committed to continuing to use my leadership position in the Senate to enact laws that provide greater protections for our children. Please be assured that I will keep your concerns in mind as I work for the state of Nevada in the 111th Congress.
Again, thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts with me. For more information about my work for Nevada, my role in the United States Senate Leadership, or to subscribe to regular e-mail updates on the issues that interest you, please visit my Web site at http://reid.senate.gov. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.

My best wishes to you.

This page contains information about NRS 201, Crimes Against Public Decency and Good Morals, and my effort(s) to get indecent advertising banned from the street level.
As stated in the law, people must have a choice about what they view. In the coming weeks and months, I will be posting more information as well as a new grassroots petition. It is important for people to know that there is something that can be done!

Copy of an e-mail I sent to the White House, Congressman Dean Heller (R-NV), and Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) on 03/25/10 about Jessica's Law:
Jessica's Law:
I am writing to you today about Jessica's Law and California's new proposed changes to the law where sex offenders that have repeated their crime(s), or show the potential to repeat their crime(s) (child sex offenders as well),will never be released back into the public. I want to state that I emphatically support this legislation and think it should be enforced nation wide. I am an adult survivor (the word survivor is barely adequate) of mental, physical, and sexual abuse as well as multiple rapes, and I am here to tell you that the victims of these horrific crimes never fully recover...we are damamged for life (please visit www.catanalbarnes.2itb.com to see for yourself why this topic is so important to me)! I personally believe that sex offenders (all of them) should be kept in general population, no more special treatment, and have their eyes removed!!! It is a FACT that sexual desire, or lust, is sight driven, and it is a fact that these disgusting amoebas stalk their victims (again, the vision)! Please, support California's efforts, and consider nationwide legislation of this law. I have stated over and over, the world is in need of a Children's Bill of Rights!
Sincerely,
Catana L Barnes

"Any people anywhere, being inclined and having the power, have the right to rise up and shake off the existing government and form a new one that suits them better. This is a most valuable and sacred right--a right we hope and believe is to liberate the world."
Abraham Lincoln
Below are more of my favorite quotes...what are yours?
"The most heroic word in all languages is--REVOLUTION!"
Eugene Debs
"It is an observation of one of the profoundest inquiries into human affairs that a revolution of government is the strongest proof that can be given by a people, of their virtue and good sense."
John Adams
"In the abstract theory of our government the obedience of the citizen is not due to an unconstitutional law: he may lawfully resist its execution."
John Quincy Adams
"An oppressed people are authorized whenever they can to rise and break their fetters."
Henry Clay, politician
"If the State cannot survive the...agitation, then let the State perish. If the Church must be cast down by the sturgglings of Humanity to be free, then let the American Union be consumed by a living thungerbolt, and no tear shed over its ashes. If the Republic must be blotted out from the roll of nations, by proclaiming liberty to the captives, then let the Republic sink beneath the waves of oblivion, and a shout of joy, louder than the voice of many waters, fill the universe at its extinction."
William Lloyd Garrison
"Revolution is the only thing, the only power, that ever worked out freedom for any poeple. The powers that have ruled long, and learned to love ruling, will never give up that prerogative till they find they must, till they see the certainty of overthrow and destruction if they do not! ... To plant--to revolutionize--those are the twin stars that have ruled our pathway. What have we then to dread in the word Revolution--we, the children of rebels! We were born to be rebles--it runs in our blood."
Wendell Phillips
"Full opportunity for full development is the unalienable right of all. He who denies it is a tyrant, he who does not demand it is a coward; he who is indifferent to it is a slave; he who does not desire it is dead. The earth for all the people! That is the demand."
Eugene Debs
"If we do not soon bestir ourselves for a bloody revolution, we cannot leave anything to our children but poverty and slavery."
Die Arbeiter Zeitung, Chicago labor paper
"We can't have education without revolution. We have tried peace education for 1,900 years and it has failed. Let us try revolution and see what it will do now."
Hellen Keller
"Those who won our independence by revolution were not cowards. They did not fear political change. They did not exalt order at the cost of liberty."
Louis Brandeis, Supreme Court Justice
"That circumstances sometimes justify it...(revolution) is not Communist doctrine but an old American belief." Justice Jackson
"Wherever one goes in this civilized world, one always finds the same set-up. The little man, the man who does the dirty work, the producer is of no importance, recieves no consideration and is always being asked to make the greatest sacrifice. Yet everything depends on this forgotten man. Not a wheel could turn without his support and co-operation. It is this man, whose number is legion, who has no voice in world affairs...he knows that he has been robbed and cheated from time immemorial. He is suffocated with all this bitter knowledge. He waits and waits hoping that time will alter things. And slowly he realizes that time alters nothing, that with time things only grow worse. One day, he will decide to act. "Wait!" he will be told. "Wait just a little longer" But he will refuse to wait another second."
Henry Miller

"There is a political feudalism where a dynasty has the trappings of a parliamentary system but manipulates it for the benefit of the ruling class...Revolution in theTwentieth Century means rebellion against another kind of feudalism...economic feudalism...and the United States should promote democratic revolution against these conditions of economic feudalism."
William Douglas, Supreme Court Jusitice
"They set up the courts; they set up the police; they set up the army; they set up an educational system; they set up the newspaper; they set up all the apparatus to brainwash and to keep in subjugation. If we're going to be free, and we will not be fully free until we smash this state completely and totally...no people in this world have ever achieved independence and freedom through the ballot or having it legislated to them. (They) got their freedom through struggle and through revolution."
William Epton
"God forbid we should ever be twenty years without...a rebellion."
Thomas Jefferson
