tl;dr version:

Local rural farmer in Vermont gets arrested for weed.

Having had enough, runs his tractor over the fleet of cop cars at the County Mounty cop shop.

I saw the amount to post yesterday , I was suprised ( pleasantly ) it was that low.

If you make meme pics, put FreeRo8ger.com (no 8) on the pic.

Then I can eventually increase conversions by building a small confidence building site there. If anyone is worried I have a personal profit motive here, I will be happy to sign control of the domain over to AF or someone else trusted, or whatever.

I just know what the $#@! I'm doing, and a straight donation link will not lead to the largest donation amount. I've been doing this 11-12 years, so I know. And after doing it that long, you can assume I'm fairly decent at it.

The point of the website will be to build tension, and assure people that their donation is meaningful. A straight chip-in link can't do that. I will get a nice site built for free (to everyone but me - lol) , with the intention of clicking to donate.

I'd be willing but I have no problem with that.

Whoever can do the best at raising $5,000 I say go for it.

(LOL - Gotta get five grand fast. I should put the band back together)

MJU did the chip in. I registered the domains. I pointed them to the "sister" chip in first. Then I couldn't donate. Then pointed them to MJU's chip in after not hearing from the sister. (who I believe is legit via PCO)

You have a moniker acct, AF?

I've been starving for something like this.

Sorry, OT, but why in the world do you need to "disguise" a URL?

[TheTexan]

You contributed $30.00 to Roger Pion's Bail/Bond

Maybe so that google search results go to that website instead of this one

Not pointing to ours yet.

Awesome! Thanks.

[pcosmar]

Very cool.
Need to get in contact with folks there.

Whop Rang I am Rogers' cousin AND a Ron Paul supporter(the long-term escalation of this situation is just more reason to vote for Dr. Paul, in my book) who can verify that the Chip-In is legit. Any ??? Please message me or Amanda McCormick(his sister).

If you guys that have these chip-ins could get together with them,, I don't know if it is possible to link them.

[MoneyWhereMyMouthIs2]

Sorry, OT, but why in the world do you need to "disguise" a URL?

Because I don't like people reverse engineering me through domain searches (like talk on msg boards), same dns, common hosting, etc, etc. It is habit, and an attempt to avoid recognition. (positive or negative)

Maybe so that google search results go to that website instead of this one

Later, yes. Right now, they are just forwarding to the chip ins for a shorter url. (and able to be changed if the chip in urls change, but there will still be a consistent small domain to use. I'm thinking it will be best to put a summary of the story there, with links to the chip-ins (or widgets), possibly a link to fija too. It would be nice to see that whole area full of fija flyers by the time a trial rolls around.

I'm still not sure if the sister's chipin is working. I donated for sure, last night, and it still shows zero.

The ChipIn we have sends funds into my PayPal account, currently we have "PayPal balance: $319.23 USD"

I was hoping we could come up with the $5,000 and send it to a bail bondsman who would post it as a bond to get him out. If he is already bailed out the money could be sent directly to Roger for his legal defense, bills, etc.

Someone on his FB page did list an address but I don't know about sending a cashiers check to jail, what are the odds it would go "missing"?

It sounds like we'll be able to find an appropriate family member to send it to. Or if we make it take off, we might be able to deal directly with the bond people and then send excess straight to him.

I think that address is just for people to snail mail letters of support.

[MJU1983]

Maybe it will take off like that school bus driver story? If that happens I want Anti Federalist to present a giant check on our behalf to Roger. LOL It would be a perfect photo-op if it happened in front of the police station.

We are conservative though so transportation, lodging, and meal expenses will be quite limited for your trip. Plus, those giant checks aren't cheap.

Hell, I'd drop another bill just to see that happen.

Suitable for framing.

No, I don't, one of the things that hamstrings me when stuff like this comes up is the fact that I have one foot in and one foot out of the technology pool.

That's what I am hoping, get this directly to a bondsman, or to a family member if he happens to bond out before we are done.

Either for bail or directly to him for legal defense, whatever, it's all good to me.

[XTreat]

Donated 10 bucks.

[MJU1983]

Great response so far, at this rate we will hit our goal in ~2 weeks.

I'm sure promotion will occur, I'm going to send it to some liberty people I'm friends with on FaceBook so they can share.

[pcosmar]

Pete, please make them aware of what we are doing here.

I have,, and gave them a link.. Hope they would join here at least for the contact.

I still have no money,, only prayer and moral support.

And not to discourage anyone,, but it may well be futile.. That does not mean it is not right.

His act of defiance may well have been tactically unsound. And he will likely face the consequences.
I still would have loved to been there to see it.

I do expect many more to reach that "I have had enough" point.

Though he may suffer for it,, the man is still a hero.

There's no doubt about what is going to happen to him. However, a show of support for him makes a statement that can't be ignored and can only encourage more acts of defiance against the Police State.

That strikes me as a right attitude.

That is pretty much exactly what I was going to say.

There is no doubt in my mind that this poor bastard is in a world of $#@! now, but, maybe we can ease that suffering just a little bit and show support for a ballsy act of defiance.

You just made a payment of
$15.00 USD

Would've donated more, but didn't have much in my Paypal acct to work with...

Looks like chipin.com is down. What a terrible time to be down.
