Back Home

I spent a few weeks visiting National Parks in Oregon, Nevada, Utah and Arizona, before driving south to find my humble little cozy AZ abode welcoming my arrival. It was good to get back to my winter homeland. I was anxious to get back to my Patriotic Activism.

Saturday morning I accompanied a dozen or so other Patriots in an attempt to educate the public on the hiring practices of Mac McGruder at his McDonalds fast food establishments. Mac prefers to hire people who are in our country illegally over legal United States residents.

Saturday evening I drove to the other side of the massive Phoenix area to the Constitution Days Fair in Gilbert.

I helped a few friends gather signatures for S.O.L.E and L.A.W

We are attempting to gather 200,000 signatures so these two important initiatives can be placed on the Nov. 2008 Ballot.

Monday I attended the funeral of Phoenix Police Officer Nick Erfle who was shot in the face while on duty by an Illegal Alien.

I wish I could find the words to describe the funeral. It seemed as if every Police Officer in AZ was in attendance. The church was packed, and tears flowed profusely, especially from me, while listening to Officer Nick Erfle's friends, family and fellow Officers describe their love and appreciation for this wonderful man.

Tuesday morning I met up with a new friend and we rode our Harleys to Cave Creek for breakfast. We chatted and chatted, then rode back to Deer Valley Airport where I was planning on joining the Patriot Guard Riders in escorting one of our fallen soldiers from the airport to a funeral home. Unfortunately I didn't receive the updated notice in time to learn the flight was coming in 40 minutes early. So, I missed the escort.

DoD Identifies Army Casualty
The Department of Defense announced today the death of a soldier who was supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Spc. Aaron J. Walker, 23, of Harker Heights, Texas, died Sept. 18 in Baghdad, Iraq, of wounds suffered when insurgents attacked his unit with small arms fire during combat operations. He was assigned to the 3rd Squadron, 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment, 1st Armored Division, Vilseck, Germany.

This Friday I'll be heading down to Palominas, AZ to join the Patriot's Border Alliance for a month long Border Operation. It is an effort "to help stop the flow of Illegal Immigration into our sovereign nation." And to stop the flow of trash left behind by the millions of Illegal Aliens who enter our country illegally every year.
