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
