Below is a message from the Honorable Don Gustavson


Dear Riders,

On behalf of Senator Halseth and myself, I want to thank all of you for our latest victory concerning freedom. SB177, the Helmet-Choice Bill, cleared a major hurdle today, and we never could have gotten this far if not for the hard work and effort that all of you put in this.

First thing I would ask is that you take time to email Chairwoman Breeden and thank her for allowing SB177 to come to a committee vote.

Also be sure to email Senators Rhoads, McGinness and Lee, and thank them for voting yes. Without them and Senator Halseth, SB177 would not have cleared the committee.

Thursday was a big day, but you still have work to do before SB177 becomes law! The track is one-mile, and we are only one-fourth the way there! The next hurdle is coming up fast, and we must encourage all of the Nevada Senators to vote YES on SB177 when it comes up for a Floor Vote. Please email Senators Breeden, Brower, Cegavske, Copening, Denis, Hardy, Horsford, Kieckhefer, Kihuen, Lee, Leslie, Manendo, McGinness, Parks, Rhoads, Roberson, Settelmeyer, and Wiener and ask for their support of SB177. If you can, pick up the phone and call their office too -- Phone numbers are listed here. It’s urgent we contact them now, because SB177 will be coming to the Senate Floor SOON!

Thanks again for all your hard work. It hasn’t been easy, and without you we’ll never get to the finish line. SB177 barely passed out of committee with a 4-3 vote, so please continue to help me and Senator Halseth keep up this good fight!

Sincerely,
Senator Don Gustavson

From The Declaration of Independence
(for more info click on links to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit.)

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed, by their Creator, with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.

That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

A Note From Webmaster Mike

Now is the time to act, the time to stand up, and the time to speak with one common voice. In the past our Organization has been known  primarily for it's diligence in protecting Freedom of Helmet choice; but I feel that now is the time to unite behind a much more fundamental cause - Freedom and Liberty. I ask every reader to ponder, with the full frontal assault on our Bill of Rights, including the basics;  Habeas Corpus, Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Assembly, "what good is the freedom of helmet choice in a police state"?

 I ask you to think long and hard about the terrifying fact that YOU can be declared an enemy of the state without any access to your constitutional rights. The fundamental rights paid for in blood by our forefathers; we are not Citizens anymore, but merely subjects, property of the state, mere cattle to serve and obey those who think they know what is best for us.

No matter what political party you belong to; do not trust your liberty to them. It is up to each and every one of us to be vigilant and provide oversight to OUR Representatives. Now is the time to make our voices heard, not just at COC meetings and Biker Hangouts - BUT in the halls and offices of OUR Government, making sure that every Candidate accepts he is the Servant of the People - NOT our Overlord. The Governments  power is from US, the PEOPLE. The Presidency does not have the power to invade our privacy, to use fear as a weapon, to have the United States Government  to use the very methods of Hitler, Stalin and Mao against us, it's own Citizens.

We have a blessing to be able to ride free, a blessing paid for in sweat and blood by many good men and women since the very beginnings of our great country. I for one, once made a sacred pledge; to "fight all enemies, both foreign and domestic" . I have absolutely no intention on letting the generations that will follow us to say how we let Liberty and Freedom die for the Illusion of "Safety" and the moral decay of complacence. It is every Generations' duty to keep the flame of Liberty burning, it is our time NOW.

With Respect,

Webmaster Mike
