FREE SPEECH...IT'S AMERICAN, IT'S PATRIOTIC, AND IT'S NECESSARY!
           

Welcome!
 
My forefathers, as well as others, fought and served for our rights and freedoms and that included the First Amendment right of Free Speech!
 
Unfortunately, too many of us feel that our individual voices do not matter and will never be heard. As a result, too many people do not Speak Up or Speak Out! 
 
Personally, I have experienced great frustration over how difficult it is, if not how impossible it is, to obtain the most basic of information related to our rights as American Citizens and Laborers. 
 
Therefore, the goal of this website is to inform people and reassure them, through personal accounts, they are not alone in their experiences and need to be heard!

  Why I Am Doing This:

Due to my own personal experiences and all of the atrocities against children I have witnessed over 40 plus years, I feel I must take a stand for the children in my community as well as the community at large.

I believe children should be protected from actions that will tear them down as human beings.  I also believe the world is in need of a Childrens' Bill of Rights that spells out laws to protect them.

I am a proponent for the death penalty and/or removal of the eyes for anyone that rapes or murders a child!!!

I am outraged that the First Amendment is being used as the excuse to "legally" EXPOSE CHILDREN to INDECENT ADVERTISING at the STREET LEVEL!!! 

WHY have child pornography laws?!!!

Thank you Selena Robles for all of your help and support!  Thank you to everyone who has shown their support by signing the petition!  Thank you for caring!
NRS 201~Crimes Against Public Decency & Good Morals.
 
This page contains information about the petition I started in June, 2009 to get indecent advertising banned from the street level.  I had to put off completing this goal due to illness and finances, but I am back and will be tackling this issue again in the very near future (please check back for updates).
View the petition, the letters of support that I received from Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) and Congressman Dean Heller (R-NV) as well as responses by others.

Phone call received from Governor Jim Gibbons (R-NV): 

06/19/09:

I received a call from Governor Jim Gibbon's Office at 10:15 am PST and was told, "There is nothing we can do about it because they are not breaking any laws...the parts that need to be covered are covered and protected by the first amendment."  However, the very kind and empathetic person I spoke with said they agree with my cause and wished me good luck in achieving my goal!

 
 

07/08/09: I spoke with Mr. Terry Shae at the Washoe County District Attorney's Office and he told me, "I do not think this will be successful because of the federal courts, the first amendment and the issue of obsenity." He did, however, provide some other avenues to pursue! I/we really appreciate your time, consideration and suggestions!  I, however, told Mr. Shae that I intend to take this issue as far as I possibly can with the help and support of the community because OUR CHILDREN need to be protected.

"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
