Rural Rebellion Brewing

[AuH20]

Screw OWS. It's only a matter of time before one of these regulators get 'lost' up there. ;)

These rural folks, living in the shadow of the majestic Mount Shasta, believe that they are being driven away so that their communities can essentially go back to the wild, to conform to a modern environmentalist ethos that puts wildlands above humanity. As the locals told it during the Defend Rural America conference Oct. 22 at the Siskiyou Golden Fairgrounds, environmental officials are treading on their liberties, traipsing unannounced on their properties, confronting ranchers with guns drawn to enforce arcane regulatory rules and destroying their livelihoods in the process.

The evening's main event: a panel featuring eight county sheriffs (seven from California, one from Oregon) who billed themselves as "Constitution sheriffs." They vowed to stand up for the residents of their communities against what they say is an unconstitutional onslaught from regulators in Sacramento and Washington, D.C. In particular, they took issue with the federal government's misnamed Travel Management Plan, which actually is designed to shut down public travel in the forests.

Plumas County Sheriff Greg Hagwood related the stir he caused when he said he "will not criminalize citizens for just accessing public lands." Siskiyou County Sheriff Jon Lopey reminded the crowd that county sheriffs are sworn to uphold the Constitution "against all enemies, foreign and domestic." These are fighting words.

Sheriff Dean Wilson of Del Norte County said he was "ignorant and naïve about the terrible condition our state was in." He came to believe that people were being assaulted by their own government. "I spent a good part of my life enforcing the penal code but not understanding my oath." Wilson and other sheriffs said it is their role to defend the liberties of the people against any encroachments – even if those encroachments come from other branches of government.

As someone who has covered law-enforcement issues in urban Southern California, it's refreshing to hear peace officers enunciate the proper relationship between themselves and the people. Increasingly, law enforcement is based on an authoritarian model, whereby police have nearly unlimited power, and citizens must obey, period. It's rare to hear peace officers who are willing to stand up against more powerful arms of the government in service to their oath to their state and county and who affirm that their job is to protect their citizens' inherent rights. It's even rarer to hear sheriffs complain about the excessive use of force by fellow officers, which was a theme on the panel when referencing federal agents.

News coverage of "Northern California Sheriffs Form Coalition Against Tyranny"


The nearly five-hour drive from the Sacramento area to Yreka was a reminder not just of the immense size and beauty of California, but of the vast regional and cultural differences one finds within our state.

Sacramento is Government Central, a land of overly pensioned bureaucrats and restaurant discounts for state workers. But way up in the north state, one finds a small but hard-edged rural populace that views state and federal officials as the main obstacles to their quality of life.

Yreka, Calif. — About 700 people attended a meeting at the Siskiyou Golden Fairgrounds on Saturday sponsored by the activism group Defend Rural America, founded by Idaho native Kirk MacKenzie.
The meeting consisted of a film, a fundraising auction and discussions with a panel of eight sheriffs from Northern California and Southern Oregon.
A charter bus brought more than 40 people from the Bay Area and around 250 people from other areas outside of Siskiyou County, according to Liz Bowen of Scott Valley Protect Our Waters (POW), who co-organized the event.

No,
But you can post a link to another story on the same subject in an existing thread.

Or have a dozen threads on the same subject with one post.
:rolleyes:

Or you can attempt to tie the keywords together for the search engines. Last nilght the thread about 8 northern california sheriffs was not tying together with rural rebellion on google searches. I am attempting to tie the event together.

I was referring to the multiple other threads on the same subject. not your post in an existing thread.
Was hoping to put a few of them at the top of the page for consolidation.

we would make a great state but Portland and Eugene kill it for you and SF and LA kill it for me.

[flightlesskiwi]

this is so telling. imo, the white house rural council has people leery and the truth about agenda 21 is spreading and all the information is setting some brush fires.

I really dislike the way the population hell holes dictate for the entire state.
We live a completely different way of life.

Legends are mistaken.
da Trolls live under da Bridge.


In the beginning dere was nuttin'.
Den...

On da FIRST day, God created da UP.

On da SECOND day, He created da partridge, da deer, da bear, da fish, and da ducks.

On da THIRD day, He said "Let dere be Yoopers to roam da Upper Peninsula."

On da FOURTH day, God created da udder world down below.

On da FIFTH day, He said "Let dere be trolls to live in da udder world down below."

On da SIXTH day, He created da bridge, so da trolls would have a way to get to heaven.

God saw it was good and on da SEVENTH day, He went huntin'.

Portland is this frothing mass of rank liberalism in the midst of an otherwise very conservative state. When I was living there all I used to hear was criticism of the "rednecks" out in Tillamook and how they were all heartless, racist, and so forth. I've never seen more people with late stage AIDS living on the streets as there are in PDX - all young kids too. Anyhow, I love PDX but the liberal environment really puts a strain on enjoyment at times.

I go through Bend once or twice a year. I am a forested mountain man but I really like bend, central and eastern oregon. My wife can't understand my love of the vast old sea basins. She sees nothing there, I see freedom in it purest form from the vanishing point on one horizon to the vanishing pont on the other.
