Yourself, Jeff Head and countless others on this forum provided one of the few small voices that were visible nationaly in righting this injustice.

Free Republic continues to be of impact!

Thanks for your kind words. I remember that you contributed to the words of outrage here on Free Republic re the attempted Rural Cleansing of our brothers and sisters in the Klamath Basin!

Their story would have never got out if not for Free Republic.

My youngest son lives in Portland, Or and knew nothing of the 10,000 who marched at first to protest the cleansing. The Portland, Or. tv and papers spiked the news.

He flew home for a visit the last week of June and the first week of July. I let him read the truth on Free Republic. He had thought the farmers were terrible people until he read what was on Free Republic. He went back to Portland and got several of his friends involved and on our side!

I shudder to think what would have happened to those poor families in the Klamath basin if not for the support of freepers like Jeff and others and the support here on Free Republic.

Thanks for being part of the Klamath firepower team to stop rural cleansing in the Klamath Basin.
