Being just one person

Tulelake, CA— Power

For one person it seems I have a lot of power. So much power that there are some that want to take it away. Each day they wonder what I am going to write about and if it is about them. They spend their entire day wondering what I will write next.

I too spend my days wondering what I am going to write next but it is not always about them. It is about making a difference and speaking up about what it right over what is wrong. Some people don’t like that and they think it is all about them. It is not about them but rather what is right vs. what is wrong.

Not one of us perfect, myself included. But some would like to see it as the good guys vs. the bad guys. I guess it means they are only the good guys and anyone outside their little circle are the bad guys. None of us like to be told we might be doing something wrong after all, we are all set in our ways and we are always right and everyone else is wrong. Right? Wrong?

I am a bad guy because I write about things by shedding light on what is not quite right in this little community. There are some who don’t see what they are doing as being bad because they have gotten away with it for so long it is normal for them. They have gotten so used to lying at city council meetings against others and getting away with it for years. They even go around and do the same thing through out this community. They figure that what ever they say is the truth and everyone will believe them. If they have nothing to hide then why are they so worried about me.

What they cannot handle is when someone comes along and says, “Hey, you can’t do that”. “Yes, we can.” “No you can’t.” they can’t handle the fact that just because this is Tulelake, like Tulelake is some special place and anything goes in Tulelake as long as you are on the right side of things in Tulelake. Like Tulelake is some special planet out in the universe where the only rules that apply are the ones this group sets for themselves.

Over and over I always hear the same thing, “Well, it’s Tulelake what do you expect?” Like that is suppose to make a difference because it is Tulelake and in Tulelake people don’t have to follow normal rules, only the rules they make up for themselves.

And when someone comes along and rocks their little boat and world they don’t know how to handle it, except to drum up non-existent nonsense in return and claim it as fact. It does not matter who you are if you are the wrong messenger nothing is going to happen. But when what they want to do is their idea, then everything is fine and dandy because it was their idea.

Since this group seems to think they have so much power, then why do they even bother with me? I will tell you why, because they know I am right and they are wrong.

If I were so wrong why would they go out of their way to try and stop me from getting the truth out? It is because I am right and they know it. And that is what they cannot handle and they will do anything in their power to try and stop me by even lying if that what it takes in their eyes.

I did not make the bed they sleep in, they did it to themselves and I am going to do everything legally within my power to see to it they get their just reward.

They think I am alone but I have more people who agree with what I am trying to do than they think. To try and clean up the mud that has caked on for so long that it will take a clean sweep to wash it all away and even then that may not be enough.

So yeah, I have a lot of power in the written word. Something they will never be able to take away, my first amendment rights no matter how hard they keep trying to do it. Where my civil rights have been violated numinous times by this group in all that I have had to endure and go through for quite some time now.

My suffering is about to come to an end, as theirs is just about to begin. It will not be long now, it is just a matter of time and the powers that be will see to it, not against me, but against them.

Then we can all live happy ever after…

Time will tell.

Patience!

The alleged threat wasn't credible

If your alleged threat was so ridiculous or grandiose that

(1) there was no realistic way to see it through, and/or

(2) a reasonable person would not have been fearful after hearing/receiving the threat,

then you didn't commit the crime of stalking.

1.You engaged in a pattern of conduct that was intended to follow, alarm, or harass the "victim" (s/he needs independent evidence, besides his/her testimony, to show this);

2.As a result, the "victim" reasonably feared for his/her safety or the safety of an immediate family member, AND

3.You EITHER a) made a credible threat against the safety of the "victim" or his/her family member , and failed to stop the harassing behavior after the victim asked you to do so, OR b) violated a restraining order with your behavior.

You were participating in constitutionally protected activity
