Guest guest Posted March 12, 2010 Report Share Posted March 12, 2010 *** CROSSPOST WIDELY *** Background: Jason Miller, founder of the AR blogs Thomas Paine's Corner and Bite Club of KC, was the victim of harassment by the Johnson County Police Department on Friday, March 5th, when he was interrogated at his place of employment regarding emails sent to Kansas State officials. Apparently, government officials involved in the recent decision to slaughter hundreds of deer within Shawnee Mission Park, were upset by emails they received from several individuals as a result of their killing spree. These officials', in retaliation, decided to use Jason's local police dept. as their own personal goon squad, in an attempt to intimidate him. While Jason Miller's anti-hunting campaign included his own singular email, it appears he is taking the heat for every email sent by anyone in opposition to the bloodbath. This is a clear ABUSE of Kansas State officials' and the police department's power! Increasingly, AR activists are being targeted for harassment and jail time for LAWFUL, First Amendment activities. Anyone who is under the impression that this escalating government campaign against the AR Movement is limited to what they refer to as " fringe extremists " is in for a SHOCK. The FBI and others in law enforcement are committed to destroying our movement -- period! This is why supporting one another in cases of govt/police abuse is absolutely VITAL. Please take the time to email the following power abusers and let them know YOU WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED. Remind them that they are OUR employees and that they have taken an oath to uphold the Constitution -- including the FIRST AMENDMENT. Sample letter below -- tweak it to make it your own EMAIL THE ABUSERS: governor; lloydf; michael.meadors; randy.knight; chairman; vicechair; treasurer; assistant_treasurer; secretary; assistant_secretary; member; annabeth.surbaugh; jim.allen; ed.peterson; david.lindstrom; ed.eilert; doug.wood; calvin.hayden SAMPLE LETTER: Sirs: By abusing your official power in order to harass and intimidate those in opposition to your blood-soaked policies, [e.g. Shawnee Mission Park deer massacre], it has become obvious that you do not have the character, personal integrity or good judgment to warrant retaining that position. Tyranny can only exist if the citizenry allows it. Using your official position of power to oppress lawful, ethical and morally correct social justice movements such as that of Animal Rights, will only garner anger and disgust against the reigning status quo, which has enshrouded itself in corruption for far too long. Reminder: YOU ARE OUR EMPLOYEE -- WE REFUSE TO BE PAWNS FOR YOUR PERSONAL AGENDAS. The Animal Rights Movement will continue, regardless of your Orwellian attempts to stamp out the First Amendment and the rest of the Bill of Rights which you swore an oath to uphold. I look forward to the day when we can actually be proud of those in government and not remain in constant need of a vomit receptacle when dealing with our " representatives.
