Randy, I have re-written my letter to you somewhat to moretruly reflect what I was trying to express earlier.  Thank you so very much for sharing this experience and information of the recent July 4th Parade. It means A LOT!!! This is indicative that Mt. Shastans for the most part have finally awakened!!!! I had almostlost hope of it, so much so that I did not even participate in July 4th events but stayed home.  I just didn't want to go through more charade of an alleged American Constitutional Government or have anything to do with condoning more charade of it...since we now know clearly our American Constitution was stolen from The People covertly long ago and replaced witha Corporate Gov't Constitution. (See articles and commentary by S on Fourwinds10.com and by Bob Schulz on same and on GiveMeLiberty.com and others.)

I know at least several others who stayed home from July 4th festivities for the same reason.God bless you and others for participating in the Parade andrepresenting "Veterans Against the War", Veteranswho hadthought they were fighting for an American Constitutional Government. They should certainly have their day to morallyprotest war for which they were used and abused for obviously now realized fraudulent purposes, and to put or keep a fraudulent criminal class of leadership unwittingly in power.The Truth must be known!Peace,Love and Light,JoyOn Sat, Jul 5, 2008 at 3:13 PM, Randy wrote:Dear friends and family,Throngs of people lined the entire parade route in Mt Shasta City for our annual 4th of July parade, yesterday. I had received an email earlier in the week about a goup of veterans who were going to march in the parade in opposition to war.

This sounded interesting, so I showed up at thespecified time and place to find a growing group of mostly men gathering around a banner "Veterans Against the War". As the procession started, we marched near the front of the parade to enthusiastic cheering, waving, peace signs and smiles all along the route. We had a 93 year old veteran riding in our group, WW11 veterans and veterans from other wars and eras. There were a fewboos along the way from men who should have known better, though they were drowned out by everyone near them incheering and waving. At a couple of points along the parade, people were shouting "enough is enough" or "stopthe madness" in unison and solidarity with our presence.

I could hardly believe what was happening in our conservative little town, and I am very proud of all the veterans who marched with us as well as the wonderful crowdwho cheered us all the way to the finish. Thank you, everyone!Peace,

Randy
