takenoprisoner posts: "Federal and state lawmakers have targeted Mr. Simcox for hearings to determine if he has violated any laws in forming the armed militia organization and posting its members on private land to stop illegal aliens, smugglers and drug dealers."

Too easy! This isn't a problem, it is a tremendous OPPORTUNITY for Simcox.

All he has to do is set up his own parallel "hearings" to investigate whether Rep. Raul Grijalva, Gov.-elect Janet Napolitano, Gov. Jane Hull; and Rep. Cannell are in violation of the U.S. Constitution, their own state Constitution, Federal and State laws and their respective oaths of office.

I'm sure he can find willing local and national radio, TV and internet sites willing to cover such an event as delicious as this. Off hand, I can think of several nationally syndicated right-wing radio talk show hosts that would give their eye teeth for an opportunity to be involved in this. Can you imagine FR not just covering this, but actually sending FReepers?

Deliver the "subpoenas" to the politicians under the full glare of camera, lights and microphones. Present citizen-witness after citizen-witness telling of the illegal aliens, drug smugglers, murderers and rapists they have had to endure because of the criminal failures of the "defendants" (they must always be referred to as "defendants"). Present legal experts to testify as to the illegality of state and federal officials ignoring their lawful duties. Present LEO, Border Patrol and other experts to testify that all this is official policy, coming down from the top.

When the governor, et al., try to subpoena Simcox for their hearings, publicly threaten to jail any person interfering with the "court's" process. Appoint (and arm in full view) a "bailiff" just for that purpose (it for show, people, it's called theatre).

The whole idea is here is to use street theatre to publicly ridicule the governor and especially that idiot Grijalva on a national level and focus attention to the immigration problem in a way that can't be ignored, and to raise the issue that elected criminals, such as these, WILL either change their policies or risk being held accountable.

Make up your mind. Do you want to just sit there and piss and moan and give up or maybe post angry, empty, and anonymous threats on some internet forum? Or do you want to do something that just might work?

Another thought along the same line. Get comedian Dennis Miller to act as "Committee Chairman" of the hearings. He's a conservative and would go for that in a New York minute (and would even have some good inside contacts on how to set it up). Get P.J. O'Rourke to write some of his devastating columns on the "hearings".

Another: When the "other side" tries to serve "their" subpoenas on Simcox, just ignore them, tear them up in front of the cameras while chanting "Hell no, we won't go". Make them drag him in to court where Simcox will loudly demand (for the cameras) "If Grijalva, Napolitano, and Hull won't honor his subpoenas, then I won't honor theirs!"

Even when the cameras are turned on Simcox in the official hearing (which of course he will be forced to appear at), he has to be coached on how to turn their hearings into an extension of his own street theatre.

Remember, the goal here is to humiliate, ridicule and expose these public officials (and by extension, their co-conspirators in Wash, DC) as perpetrating a criminal fraud by allowing and condoning the illegal immigration.

paraphrased: "Or do you want to just post angry,empty threats?"

First I don't post threats. You know that.

So tell us how we defend our borders from an evil such as 911? And yes, I want to do something about it.

Sure, I'm ready to volunteer my services. About all I am good at is that I am an expert marksman.

What do you have in mind?

Just kidding. I feel guilty and seek forgiveness when I kill a spider on my keyboard. Who would know the difference between a brown recluse that can kill you when some spider scuttles across your path?

Anyway, give us/me your politically correct and lawful way to protect ourselves? What to do? You tell us boot...since inquiring minds want to know.

Keep in mind we know right from wrong. We know what God has given us, and we know what our Constitution expounds.

Okay, you have my/our undivided atttention. So since you posed the question," Or do you want to do something that just might work? " The floor is yours "Mr. Speaker."
