Lawsuit filed against CAIR-Michigan

Dear Lee,

Last week the Thomas More Law Center, a powerful force for good against the threat of radical Islam, announced it had filed a civil rights lawsuit against CAIR-Michigan and others. According to a Thomas More Law Center news release (see below, highlights added), an event promoting "American Laws for American Courts" (ALAC) legislation was shut down after complaints by CAIR-Michigan:


ANN ARBOR, MI – In the middle of an event to extol the virtues of the U.S. Constitution and "American Laws For American Courts," the audience learned first-hand how easy it is to lose their freedom of Speech and Assembly.

Amid shouts of "What about free speech?" from the audience, the Allegan Police Department ordered the event shut-down.

This assault on free speech is shocking. One of the plaintiffs in the lawsuit is Beth Griffin, an energetic, hard-working long-time ACT! for America chapter leader. (To illustrate, Beth was active in the successful effort to stop Obama administration plans to transfer Guantanamo Bay detainees to Standish, Michigan).

People sometimes ask us, "if I already know a lot about radical Islam, should I still attend the ACT! for America National Conference?"


  • If you want to meet people like Beth Griffin and find out what makes them successful…
  • If you want to find out more about issues like UN Resolution 16/18, and what Members of Congress plan on doing about it…
  • If you want to see what we're doing behind the scenes to win passage of ALAC legislation, and why it's so important…
  • If you want to be encouraged by stories of what others are doing to make a difference in this fight against radical Islam…
  • If you want to just have some fun with like-minded patriots…
…then the answer to that question is YES!

LOG ON HERE to register or find out more about the conference. The conference starts in just 54 days, and if you want to ensure you'll get a hotel room at the heavily discounted conference rate, you need to reserve your room by June 1. Call 800.843.6664 or reserve your hotel room online HERE.

Still trying to decide? Here's a 57 second video message one of last year's attendees just emailed to us. We hear a lot of concerns from people that America's young people aren't waking up to this threat. Well, here's one of our future leaders!!

Irony—Police Shut-down Event Promoting U.S. Constitution. Thomas More Law Center Files Lawsuit against Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-MI); Allegan Officials

ANN ARBOR, MI – In the middle of an event to extol the virtues of the U.S. Constitution and "American Laws For American Courts," the audience learned first-hand how easy it is to lose their freedom of Speech and Assembly.

Amid shouts of "What about free speech?" from the audience, the Allegan Police Department ordered the event shut-down. School officials notified police that they had received a letter complaining about the event from Dawud Walid, Executive Director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-MI). The letter asked the school to disallow the event despite an existing contract. CAIR was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the largest terrorism funding trial in U. S. history, U.S. v. Holy Land Foundation.

As a result, the Thomas More Law Center (TMLC), a national public interest law firm based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, announced today that the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR- MI), its Executive Director, the City of Allegan, the Allegan Police Department and the School District were named as defendants in a thirty-four page civil rights lawsuit filed in the Federal District Court for the Western District of Michigan, this morning. The claims included constitutional and contract violations. [Click here for copy of federal complaint]

Richard Thompson, President and Chief Counsel of the Law Center commented, "It's amazing how much clout CAIR has with the political establishment of both parties in Lansing and throughout Michigan and the nation. This, despite the fact that CAIR has its roots in the Muslim Brotherhood, was listed as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation trial, and the FBI's former chief of counterterrorism, noted that CAIR, its leaders, and its activities effectively give aid to international terrorist groups."

Continued Thompson, "Press accounts make it clear that an indictment naming CAIR as a defendant in the Holy Land Foundation trial was squelched by Attorney General Holder's office despite vehement objections by FBI agents and the federal prosecutors in Dallas."

The TMLC federal lawsuit was brought on behalf of State Representative David Agema; a chapter leader of ACT! for America, Elizabeth Griffin; Allegan County Commissioner, Willis Sage; and Mark Gurley, one of the event sponsors.

The event in question, entitled, "Constituting Michigan – Founding Principles Act" took place on January 26, 2012 at an Allegan High School auditorium which had been rented by Willis Sage.

The purpose of the event was to inform the public about the importance of honoring the United States Constitution, to recognize the internal threat to America posed by radical Muslims and the dangers to our free society caused by the imposition of Sharia law.

At first the Allegan police chief police indicated he shut down the event because of threats to one of the speakers, Kamal Saleem; however, shortly thereafter, the chief admitted to a reporter that there was no specific threat to the event and no real danger at all. In fact, no specific threats of violence relating to the event were received by the City of Allegan, its police department, the Allegan Public School District or Allegan Public High School.

Police gave as their reason, the appearance of one of the featured speakers, Kamal Saleem, a former Muslim terrorist who converted to Christianity. Saleem has spoken at numerous high schools and universities, Christian churches and Jewish temples across the nation. He has also spoken at the U. S. Air Force Academy, Michigan's State Capital, and Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan. At no time before the Allegan event or afterwards has an event where he has spoken been shut down by law enforcement.

Sage notified the Allegan police chief ten days before the event and invited him to check out the background of Saleem, which he never did.

Erin Mersino is the TMLC attorney handling the case.

More on Plaintiffs

State Representative David Agema is an elected State Representative for the 74th District serving in Michigan's House of Representatives. He is a sponsor of HB 4769 entitled "Restriction of Application of Foreign Laws Act" (based on the American Laws for American Courts Model Act), which bans the use of foreign laws including Sharia law, by courts and administrative bodies of the State, when those laws conflict with fundamental rights protected by the Constitutions of the United States and the State of Michigan. Defendant Walid, is an outspoken opponent of HB 4769.

Elizabeth Griffin is a chapter leader for the organization, ACT! for America, a non-partisan, non-sectarian organization whose mission is to give Americans concerned about national security, terrorism, and the threat of radical Islam, a powerful, organized, informed and mobilized voice. Griffin promotes the "Constituting Michigan – Founding Principles Act", which would require Michigan public schools to teach the history and Constitution of the United States. Griffin also guides and mentors chapter leaders for various chapters of the ACT! for America organization, as well as educates concerned Americans about the threat of Islamic Sharia law to our system of law in the United States.

Willis Sage is a County Commissioner for the County of Allegan, Michigan. Sage is the author of the "Constituting Michigan – Founding Principles Act," which would require Michigan public schools to teach the history and constitution of the United States. He organized the event and rented the room at Allegan High School where the free speech event was held.

Plaintiff Mark Gurley was a sponsor of the event and paid for the airfare of Kamal Saleem. He is also an advocate of HB 4769, "Restriction of Application of Foreign Laws Act" (based on the American Laws for American Courts Model Act), sponsored by Plaintiff Agema.

Defendants' pretextual claim that the free speech event needed to be shut-down for safety reasons subverts the true cause for halting the free speech event: complying with the demands of CAIR.

Yes, Virginia, cats do boss dogs around

A story from my father's farm:
 
My father recently added two doggies to his family, in addition to the blue heeler he's had for many years.  Well, big surprise, they sometimes fight.  However, his skiddish (humans can't hold her) momma cat doesn't like them fighting, especially near her kittens.  So last night, when the three canines got into it in the barn, she--according to eyewitnesses--ran at them, jumped onto the pile, then went flying off and away.  It was not the first time she'd done something like that, and not the first time she'd succeeded in breaking up a fight of three much larger dogs.
 
The dogs may lack cordiality with each other, but they know who their boss is.

One year ago today: bin Laden found out those 72 virgins are 72 Virginians ready to kick his ass

That's right.  It's been one year since that great day.  Let us gloat over the death of that fucking sheethead.

Glenn Beck puts his person before his patriotism -- Fw: TommygunNG sent you a video: "Glenn Beck tells his listeners WE MUST support Ron Paul"

 
Glenn Beck will demand freedom in the domestic setting to the point of losing that freedom to a foreign enemy.  He mentions a threat of war with China, yet seems to forget that if we lose a war with China (which is sure to happen under the "very dangerous"--his words--policies of Ron Paul), we would lose our Constitution.  You see, unlike us, when the ChiComs conquer a country, they are NOT simply going to rebuild it and give it its freedom.  They are going to dominate us and force us to impose their policies on our people.  It will NOT be nearly as nice as they treated Hong Kong, because--get this--they are more racially-minded than we are, and WE AIN'T CHINESE!
 
But to give credit where due, I must give him credit for recognizing fascism as being on the Right (start at 3:33 point).  Apparently he has learned political science from some people a little bit more qualified than some Tea Party hick.

This is proof that Glenn Beck is not a patriot. He makes it clear that he sees Paul's foreign policy as dangerous, but, darn it, he agrees with Paul on materialistic, selfish matters. Glenn Beck is a fucking idiot.
Even BECK now see's it,PLEASE vote Ron Paul in 2012 Vote for Ron Paul in 2012 Republicans in the state of Iowa will gather today to cast their vote in the caucuses that will largely impact the presidential race, and all eyes are on Ron Paul as the Texas Congressman holds the lead in the polls. Following the bow out of Herman Cain and a schizophrenic surge up and down in the popularity of his peers, Rep. Ron Paul has rocketed to the forefront of the Republican Party in recent week, passing the competing gang of politicians also vying for the nomination. By Tuesday night, America will know the results of the Iowa Caucuses and could indeed have a clear idea of who could take the GOP's nomination and perhaps eventually the presidency. The last few surveys conducted by the Des Moines Register and Public Policy Polling put Paul either above the other frontrunners or neck-and-neck at first place. The Iowa caucus, the first among many during the presidenti... more
