JAMES MADISON QUOTE - 1822

"A popular government without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy; or, perhaps both. Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power knowledge gives."

SCOTTSBORO WEATHER - SUN & MOON RISE

Another Dog and Pony Show?



Tonight, July 8, 2008, 7PM, the Democrat Party will sponsor a runoff election "forum" at the Scottsboro High School Auditorium. This is the link for the article in, The Daily Sentinel: http://thedailysentinel.com/story.lasso?ewcd=54ae05dd8607b661 . The forum is a good thing, subverted by tyrannical party politics. The article goes on to say that no video recording will be allowed except for Scottsboro's Electric Power Board. Not all citizens of Jackson County can attend nor do they subscribe to Scottsboro's cable service. This prohibition of news agencies or private citizens right to video tape/film the event wrongfully deprives individuals and the press the right to video record this event. The Scottsboro City Board of Education was contacted to determine if there was a prohibition against video taping an event such as this in the high school auditorium. Administrative personnel in the School Board office stated there were no restrictions by the School Board. A political party making a determination of when 1st Amendment Rights will be allowed goes beyond good sense and our 1st Amendment Rights.


I wonder if Party Police (PP) will be on hand to confiscate video equipment?
