ESTABLISH A THIRD CONTINENTAL CONGRESS

by Ray Southwell



To All Patriots:

	Since the bombing in Oklahoma City, the militia has fragmented into several

groups.  Some militias have gone underground, some remain active and open,

and some have become patriot groups and are no longer militias by definition.

	God has blessed me over the past several months with working as a Registered

Nurse in an inner city emergency room.  I can now understand what is

occurring in the inner city and also see what will occur in this country if

justice is not returned.  One militia leader who is black said, "Ray, the

injustice occurring to whites throughout America has been occurring to blacks

for the last 440 years."  His comment proves what I have long believed, that

when justice is removed for the people and corruption prevails, anarchy

develops.  Anarchy brings in a police state for the safety of the masses.

 Detroit is an example -- a police state during the day, and anarchy during

the night.  It is no longer safe to be on the streets at night regardless of

color or behavior.  The anarchy has developed from the anger that has been

generated from the corrupt judicial system.  This anger is expressed by

violence against the Police, the Public, and on each other.  Instead of

focusing this energy on corrupt officials these individuals are destroying

their communities.

	My great fear is this, after being in the inner city, is that what I have

observed is about to befall this nation from coast to coast.  With the

current militia fragmentation, under multiple leadership, its lack of unified

direction, membership frustration, and in the face of continued injustice,

anarchy will be commonplace in America with the next abuse of governmental

power.

	Like Detroit, the militias will direct the anger against each other, police

authority, the public, and perceived tyrannical individuals.  They will

become judge, jury, and executioner.  With this national anarchy comes a

police state with public consent.  With my observations of the militia

movement and from my conclusions drawn from the city of Detroit, we in the

militia and patriot communities must become unified in our direction.

	It is for the above reasons that we must establish a Third Continental

Congress. The militia can then fall under the authority and direction of this

legislative body.  This Third Continental congress could reestablish Justice

in America for all the people, whatever color they may be, or whatever faith

system they may observe.  If the militia do not follow and fall under the

authority of this legislative arm of the people anarchy will prevail, bring

in martial law and a police state.  This Third Continental Congress should be

established as the First and the Second were, by vote of the people willing

to save this great nation and to secure liberty for themselves and their

posterity.

	In conclusion, the militia cannot be the judge, jury, and executioner.  The

question is, are there enough spiritual people to establish justice for all,

regardless of who they may be, or who the media may portray them to be.  God

willing, we can establish a Third Continental Congress to return justice to

America.  The militia is the defensive military arm of the people, not a

political arm.  We must separate the two and get to work before it is too

late.

	I have set aside, for the time being, my active involvement in the Michigan

Militia to pursue what I believe is God's will.  I need your help.  If you

have ideas or questions, or want to be involved in the establishment of the

Third Continental Congress, please contact me as soon as possible.  My phone

number is (616) 529-6646 or write to me at P. O. Box 564, Brutus, MI 49706.

The SAFAN Internet Newsletter was started so that we could focus our

attention on the abuses of the Federal government and those corrupt officials

who cause and are allowing this abuse to take place.  Since May  28, we have

published 26 newsletters from many different sources about many kinds of

federal abuse.  Please re-read this POST very carefully, since this message

offers a solution to how we can focus our attention on something

constructive.  We must LEARN to work together.  Please PRAY for a SOLUTION to

 take our country back.
