Best of luck with your rally.  Would love to join you, but you are just too far from the cincinnati area for me to be able to do so.

Are you aware that F.A.I.R.  is attempting to organize a group in Ohio so we can be more active on the state & local level? to help one another with letters, etc. 

Would letters help  -  if we knew more about your specific problems and goals?

I just heard of FAIR yesterday---my girlfriend Julie in Painesville must belong to it---because she met a man in my county (Tuscarawas) through it.  If everything works out---I hope to share a ride with him to Painesville and chip in with gasoline money.

It's nice to hear of people still rallying.If I lived anywhere near you I would be on the front line.I have been to alot of rallys and people who know me know it's true.If more people could get out of their comfort zone,we could quickly end this insanity once and for all. Until then,it will be a stalemate at best.


For all who have fallen,we must move forward But, for the right reasons.*In my mind, so called "legal residency" is just as a threat as illegal immigration and it the missing topic in the immigration debate.*Every man dies,but not every man truely lives*

Greg,how many protest have you been to?my guess not one.Me ,I have been to 9 if you count that speech,at the college where I listened to simcox of the minutemen give a speech where I was in a room of about 220 people.There was probaly 200 pro illegal alien /aztlan idiots there.Maybe 10 anti-illegal alien protesters and the rest media.Until the American people are ready to go to the next level,nothing is going to change.Another calif refugee.

Greg- this is in your neck of the woods I believe --or at least close----hope you can make it.  The organizer is a snow bird right now--but will be home very soon to give Julie more info.  If I am correct, they hold rallies in Painesville quite often.

CR, my time is stretched between my startup business and my meetings. So I've been donating and faxing through Grassfire. I also have a list of key people I email and they keep me informed.

I know this routine very well as I was heavily involved fighting abortion.

Ohio, I have good friends in Painesville. It is about a one hour drive one way. My wife and I may just find a way to fit it in.

It is too far from me and I have health issues that prevent me from marching anyway but I'd love to be there and will be in spirit.  I do what I can in the way of monitoring jobs and calling ICE and a few other things.  In the end we may lose this fight but I will go down fighting.  I do believe that more people are becoming aware of how bad things are and are beginning to become active.

Best of luck on your rally. I expect thousands of illegals on May day parades wanting amnesty. With the top 3 running now, if ANY of these 3 become President they will get their wish. We will truly have passed the point of no return at that time.

Give us an update after the rally.

Ohio:

I was a Buckeye, but no longer. Wish I was there to help out! Hope you are able to get the pictures on line.  I still know people in Ohio, but they seem to think I am nuts when I try and get them interested in doing anything. I do have a grandson who calls Ohio Congressmen when I let him Know whats going on. Thanks for the help, we all need as much as possible to fight the third world country we are going to be. What newspaper will this be in??

I'm trying to find out right now---

Painesville isn't my neck of the woods--so I'm not familiar with the newspapers--but heard that press was there.   I was stationed with another girl by the bus stop--and got a few hecklers---was called a few names----but for the most part---got thumbs up from passers-by and plenty of horns in support.

More than likely the News Herald would cover it. Here is a link. My searches did not find any articles.

or try Lake Community News

A rally member just told me it was in the news Herald dated 5-2-08 and said that Lake County Tribune also ran a story.
