Carla just posted this from Shem's family
"We want you to know how grateful we have been for the outpouring of support for Shem over the last few months. We have been overwhelmed by all the acts and words of kindness, generosity, prayers and blessings. We thank you all so much for walking through this difficult journey with us. We will treasure our memories of Shem and hope he remains in your hearts forever as he will in ours."
Peace,

"Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence.Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful people with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."

I... wow. There are times when words are not enough. My deepest sympathies to his family.
Rest in Peace, Shem. You will not be forgotten.
My minimal contact with him was enough to know he was a true freedom fighter. What a loss, RIP shemdogg

Memory eternal, Shem! Still seems surreal such a young fella (almost exactly ) left this world. :'( R.I.P., brother.

I'll take this moment to remind everyone to stop eating soy products. Shem passed from aggressive colon cancer and the origin is most likely the poisoned food we are eating. GMO soy is cancer causing poison! The liberty movement needs everyone healthy in mind, body and spirit. Pay attention to what you eat!

"We have set them on the hobby-horse of an idea about the absorption of individuality by the symbolic unit of COLLECTIVISM. They have never yet and they never will have the sense to reflect that this hobby-horse is a manifest violation of the most important law of nature, which has established from the very creation of the world one unit unlike another and precisely for the purpose of instituting individuality."- A Quote From Some Old Book
RIP.
This is just heartbreaking. He was one of the few people from this forum I actually got to meet irl at the Boston Tea Parties (the real ones!) and Liberty Forum and Porcfest... Just the best guy... and he and Carla were the greatest team. I'll never forget how happy I was when I found out they were coming to the Freedom & Unity Festival-- like more excited than I was for the speakers we landed (sorry guys & gals!) but Shem was a Rockstar. So grateful to have had the opportunity to know him even the tiniest bit.
Thanks for everything you did, Shem.
$#@! this.
I'm sick of good ones getting away too soon, and the bloodsuckers living on forever.
$#@! them. $#@! their death.
May the liberty movement carry your memory on to victory. "For I have sworn upon the altar of god eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man."
God speed, sir.

“The spirits of darkness are now among us. We have to be on guard so that we may realize what is happening when we encounter them and gain a real idea of where they are to be found. The most dangerous thing you can do in the immediate future will be to give yourself up unconsciously to the influences which are definitely present.” ~ Rudolf Steiner
RIP
Damn, I don't come to this forum often so I missed this. I was wondering about Shem just recently. I really felt he was going to beat this thing.
This sucks. RIP, sir. Too young.
Forgive my lameness, but what happened?

There is only one correct way: freedom. All other solutions are non-solutions.

Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.
