QUARTZSITE, ARIZONA DECLARES FULL MARTIAL LAW

First, in a meeting... or not first if they've gone full dictatorship... Jennifer Jones was arrested for Freedom of Speech during a town hall meeting; the Mayor tried to stand up for her, even ordering the police not to arrest her but those oath traitors take their orders from the buttrammers on the council.



POLICE STATE 2011: Woman arrested for speaking at city council meetingQuartzsite, AZ – The Mayor is challenged under a recall election beginning next month. Accusations have been made. The city council is persecuting the Mayor for giving the people a voice. The Chief of Police is also involved in the scandal.

Jennifer Jones is given the floor at a city council meeting open to the public. While she is speaking the council realizes she’s about to air their dirty laundry and quickly beckons their henchman to cart her off.

The Mayor steps in and says Jones has been recognized to speak and has not violated the council’s rules, but the council ignores him and has the woman removed even as the Mayor continues to contest. The police officers ignore the Mayor of the city and remove the woman. It’s obvious who those cops work for, and it’s not the people. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=YPY3BIsVQq8#at=75

Ms. Jones is the publisher of the local newspaper, had just filed to run for mayor, AND had recently been physically injured by the local police! She, apparently, has been VERY active in the local community of Quartsite, AZ and is concerned enough to get off her duff and try to do something about a situation that she perceives. http://www.quartzsitearizona.blogspot.com/

Quartzsite Police Chief Gilbert assaults man for videotaping


The courageous now former mayor Ed Foster appeared on the Alex Jones show to discuss the situation, having lost in a recall election.... oh the irony of what I advocate being used against us.

Political tyranny in Quartzsite, AZ

We’ve written about the goings-on in Quartzsite Arizona, including the YouTube video showing the arrest of a local woman who was authorized by the mayor to speak at a recent town council meeting. Now the council has ousted Mayor Ed Foster from power and declared a state of emergency.
Mayor Foster asserts that the town council held a last-minute meeting that was closed to the public — in violation of the open meetings law — Sunday night, after declaring a state of emergency in the 3,600-person western Arizona town.
Compounding matters, the council issued a declaration putting controversial police Chief Jeff Gilbert in charge.  Foster referred to the act as making him the “deputy chief executive of nothing right now.” The declaration also allows the five-member council to meet without public notice and suspend all public comment at the meetings until they declare the state of emergency over.
The videos have gotten thousands of views and have people near and far sending messages of support to Foster and messages of outrage to the council. Foster’s supporters have launched a Facebook page and website.
Foster was elected in May 2010 on a campaign promise to investigate allegations of corruption  in the La Paz County town.
He said since being in office, he has discovered that every pay period, eight to 10 paychecks go to unnamed people and that he has been denied access to financial records to find out where the money actually goes. He said that’s been happening since 1991 and amounts to $250,000 every year. “That’s literally millions of dollars,” Foster said.

Yeah, they tore up an airfield out of sheer spite.

Some thoughts from A Well Regulated discussion:  http://www.awrm.org/ubbcgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=44&t=000368

You want a Lexington?

Go down to Arizona and defend Ms. Jones. Next time she speaks be there with your rifle... or rifles.

Then try to cart her off, defend her. Could you throw your lives and everything you've built up into the fire? See that's what most people have a problem with; when it's crunch time they think of family and losing everything and the enemy plays off that. Then when you give up they'll kick you about, tase you and have a jolly laugh in the locker room before they get busy in the showers.

You wave the black flag you'd better just start shooting.

If you can get past yourselves to do that, you'd better have a Concord ready at that moment. In this situation as you get out of there how will you deal with pursuit-attempt to flee, or use the pursuit as a series of ambush opportunities.

And can you get more than yourself in on this?

Looks like we got a Lexington whether we want it or not in Quartzsite AZ.  We don't always get to choose the battles we participate or demurr from.
The mayor gets canned in a recall election-fine.  Do likewise for this corrupt council.  They want to bully Americans about with their oath traitors?  Fine, time for some militia action.
Protests, tax strikes, shunning.  Choose your tactics but it is obvious the public servants of Quartzsite are at WAR with the People of Quartzsite.

Quartzsite Police Officers Refuse to Follow Unlawful Orders. Read Their Official Letter
57ShareNOTE FROM STEWART:
Full disclosure -- I am now the official legal counsel for both Jennifer Jones and for Ed Foster, the Mayor of Quartzsite, Arizona, regarding all of the many well documented abuses of their civil rights, and in particular, their First Amendment protected rights of free speech, assembly, as well as their rights to take part in the political process, by the Quartzsite Chief of Police and Town Council.  This is in my individual capacity as a lawyer, not as the President of Oath Keepers.  I want to make that clear.  But I do see this as part of my responsibility to keep my oath, and in particular the oath I swore as a lawyer, to defend the Constitution.   Sometimes the law can indeed be used as a sword of justice, so please wish me luck in helping them hold the town council and the Chief of Police accountable!
