Minnesota Governments Lack of Transparency

Data Practices Act Defendants in Marvin Pirila & Gail Francett e v. Thomson Township, etal., denied access to relevant information to their legal matter pursuant to the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act (MGDPA), even after learning it did not apply to them.   The MGDPA does not apply to towns, except those exercising special town powers under Minn. Stat. § 368.01 and located within the 7-county metropolitan area (Minn. Stat. § 13.02, Subd. 11).   Minn. Stat. § 473.121 Subd. 2 defines Metropolitan areas and does not include defendant Thomson Township. Townships are to provide access to public data upon reasonable requests .   In this particular manner, the defendants refused to voluntarily answer information requests, letters, and emails.   Thomson Township attorney David Pritchett interfered with informal discovery by writing plaintiffs and stating they were “… hereby instructed to cease and desist from making contact with such persons for the purpose of obtaining public

Have Americans Forgotten Their Pledge, God, And Protected Rights?

Pledge of Allegiance: I pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation under God , indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all. The Bill of Rights The Ten Commandments John Locke, in The Second Treatise of Government, introduces the notion of the individual's God-given inalienable rights, of which all individuals are entitled, and which provide the moral collection of civil society.  "The state of Nature has a law of Nature to govern it, which obliges everyone, and reason, which is at that law, teaches all mankind who will but consult it, that being all equal and independent, no one ought to harm another in his life, health, liberty or possessions; for men being all the workmanship of one omnipotent and infinitely wise Maker; all the servants of one sovereign Master, sent into the world by His order and about His business; they are His property, whose workmanship they are made to last during His, n

Unnecessary Crime Brought To You By The ACLU

The answer to overcrowded prisons are bigger ones The ACLU continues to file lawsuits to protest overcrowded prisons. The ACLU sues prisons they know they have the best chance of winning. In the end, the ACLU wins virtually every case. In the three years after the ACLU wins, the prison population in these states drops by 15% relative to other states. The result: violent crime and property crime rise by 10% and five percent, respectively. Moreover, an analysis by the authors of Super Freakonomics, Steven D. Levitt and Stephen J. Dubner, found the total impact of TV on crime in the 1960's was an increase of 50% in property crimes and 25% in violent crimes. The data, however, failed to provide answers as to why. In response to the ACLU law suits, why aren't bigger and/or more prisons being built? Why should citizens be subject to more crime, criminal investigation costs, and policing/court costs? Likewise, if we have tied specific prison sentences to specific crimes,

Stop The Obama Administration And Its Supporters Now!

Broken promises, blatant lies, and a fast approach to Socialism is under way by President Obama and his supporters. We must stop them and their continued reckless, planned stimulus spending that is designed to bring this country to its knees.   President Obama is doing the work of George Soros, ACORN, and other organizations that disagree with American's right to freedom, individual rights, and innovation. This group believes the Government should decide what is best for us. They fail to uphold our Constitution, force poor legislation down our throats, and continue to throw away our nations future, our future, and future generations. They wouldn't run their own household this way, but want the right to decide what's best for us. We need a strong conservative with true moral and fiscal responsibility beliefs, such as Michelle Bachmann or Governor Perry, to correct the horrendous, evil intentions of this administration and his worshipping cronies. He is not God, albeit

The Simple Answer to the U.S. Economy that Obama won't Allow

The United States answer to its energy problem is much simpler than the government will ever admit. Solar and wind, while having limited use in producing electricity and heat, will never compete with the cost of using oil for transportation. Capitalism should decide when it is cost effective to switch to alternative energy, not the government and the secret agendas of politicians. Ethanol is shown to use more fossil fuel in its production than it returns and puts additional pressure on corn prices. In the absence of subsidies, this industry would rightfully die. This country needs to protect its national security by producing and maintaining its own oil. Export nothing. Why are we importing oil from our sworn enemies? We have plenty of our own oil, and Canada has tremendous oil resources of its own. We are essentially putting the very money needed by terrorists and rogue countries into their pockets. Politics are being played. President Obama's campaign was funded in l

Individual Rights Lost

Americans continue to stand by while their rights are being stripped a little at a time. Fathers can't get custody, ex parte orders mean you're guilty until proven innocent, and criminal public officials trespass under the guise of "sovereign immunity." California takes it yet another step. California: COURT: NO WARRANT NEEDED TO SEARCH CELL PHONE The government now tells us how we should build our homes down to the screw, how our sex at birth determines whether we should get custody in adulthood, that we can't carry a cell phone without an expectation of privacy, and that public officials can do anything they want. Most Americans sit idly by while their individual rights have been slowly taken from them over the last 30 years and more. The individual rights and freedoms guaranteed by the constitution are now mostly history, taken from us incrementally. In fact, the slow process by which these freedoms were stripped from the American people went lar

Smaller Government

Dear legislators/public officials/ and fellow citizens: Please hear my call for long needed change. Below are some of my concerns with the overreaching arm of the government. The time to pull that arm back, a long way, is now, on your watch. I have suffered from the oppression of governmental abuse on numerous occasions, which I’m going to share now. Please read all of it and respond (no autoreplies). I will post your responses to my blog http://returntoindepence.blogspot.com for the masses to read. Your lack of response will also be duly noted. Can a person who is chained, handcuffed, and jailed call himself free? They cannot. Likewise, a person without guaranteed individual rights is not free. Limiting Discretionary Immunity Protects Personal Rights The broader immunity provided a public official is coming at a greater and greater cost for individuals. Individuals are left to the mercy of public officials, whether or not they act in good faith. I have personally experienced
