You know there is nothing "illegal" about this as to how this is set up. But one could and should ask if this is all a bit unproper. You see also this is quite different than Free Republic. Free Republic the last time I look isnt basically trying to pass itself off as a charity like organization that is building a 55 million dollar fence. Is any of this illegal the way it is set up. No probaly not at least not yet from the minor digging that has been done But it is pretty improper though. If some Pr firm(Driener- ) perhaps wants to justify that a significant portion of every dollar donated isgoing to organizations that are all interelated and owned by the same folks that are connected with oversight of this fence and project then more power to them. I jus t suspect a good percentage would object because this very scenario raises the even more questions. Bad move IMHO
But please lets stop the charade and quit thinking that no one knows anybody or the non profit 503 organization is not spinning off a lot of dough to their friends. Too some it won't matter . To others it will.
IS this a fraud? Is therea personsor persons that are quite aware that no fence will be built and this is just to continue the $ for Keyes and friends. Whom well common sense tells me something is happening. But again that may or may not be happening. I have seen enough to raise a ton of red flags. That is why groups that do this sort of thing are not set up this way.
Why don't you just knock it off? With each post you further prove how ignorant you are. You quite clearly have no idea what you're talking about, how direct mail fundraising is done, etc. Even when the information is put right in front of you and explained clearly you still can't comprehend it. If you really must attack the Minuteman Project, why don't you pick an issue that you can intelligently discuss. On this one, you're way out of your league. The sad thing is that you will probably never realize it. Too bad your buddies here don't take you aside and help you understand.
