To All: In case you can't tell, I'm pissed. In Liberty, Mike Kemp KEMP'S FREEHOLD: FREEHDOM In considering the new antiterrorism legislation, the Senate listened to Louis Freeh hold forth on the need for authority to perform wiretaps and to surveil people, He was quite adamant that the authority was not wanted so that the Federal Bureau of Intimidation could run amok among the American people. It was to be very carefully used to combat the terrorists who are, well, terrorizing America. He apologized for the incautious and unwise haste employed by his agency in the wake of the Olympic bombing. First it was leaked to the media that the Gadsden Minute Men were under investigation because a member had been positively identified as being present at the site of the explosion. He had been "positively ID'ed" from video surveillance at the bombing site, compared to a surveillance photo of the man attending a court hearing in Macon Georgia for Robert Starr. DO WHAT?!? Let's examine this. DEREK UNDERWOOD ATTENDED A COURT HEARING; AS A RESULT, HE HAD TO EXPLAIN HIS WHEREABOUTS TO THE FBI because some twit had Derek's picture and "positively identified" him as being at a bombing site.. Derek has never been accused of harming another soul, materially or physically or by threat. Thank God- thank You , Lord, most sincerely from my heart- that you saw fit to bring Derek into this world on a date which encouraged him to celebrate his birth at The Barn in Ashville, Alabama, at midnight on the night of July 26, 1996. WHAT IF I HAD BEEN AT THAT CONCERT, LOUIE? WOULD I NOW BE HAVING MY HOME SEARCHED FOR MASKING TAPE AND NAILS? Am I not to be allowed to go to public events, for the additional fear that if anything happens, I will be held responsible? Louie, you spineless pimp, why did you have a picture of my friend which to compare to the video of the bombing site? At a rock concert, how many tall, slender white males with long dirty blond hair would be expected to be present? What prompted you to go to Derek's MOTHER's home at ten o'clock SATURDAY NIGHT, prompting her to call the police to find out who the two suits were? If you knew that he was a Gadsden Minute Man, why didn't you take me up on my instant offer to you SATURDAY MORNING to render you any assistance that I could? Why didn't you take me up on the same offer which I repeated on SUNDAY MORNING, when I found out you were looking for him, and I told you that he was a hundred and some miles away in the presence of witnesses in a public place when the bomb went off? Derek doesn't have a listed phone. Does that make him a criminal? He called you Sunday morning, and you were rude and threatening to him. I had counseled him to seek a meeting in a public place, a Shoney's restaurant, to wit, and you refused. Is this how you treat an American doing his level best to HELP you? Later that day we met your boys in a restaurant- to wit, a Shoney's- at the suggestion of YOUR special agents, who wanted to move the venue (for fear of what- the media? Or big, bad militia men lying in ambush? Get real, you drooling fool. You KNOW that we are going to involve the media- and you can't avoid it- it is the only protection, short of firearms, that we have.). How had they come to behave (semi)politely? An American who knew his rights, and who knew your lawless methods, AND WHO ISN'T AFRAID OF YOU- IN FACT FINDS YOU BENEATH CONTEMPT- boxed your agent's ears, and recorded the conversations, then ran to the press. Why do we have to behave this way? Because, Louie, you are our hired help and fail to recognize your place. Why was Mr. Jewell's name released and all public focus pointed to him, when you STILL have not arrested him? After Waco and Ruby Ridge; after COINTELPRO; after J Edgar and MLK- after having your local SAC write letters to the editors and assure everyone that you only investigate on reasonable suspicion or probable cause- assuring everyone that you are not *Secret Police*- you have the gall to stand before the Senate and promise that you don't want to bother anybody (any more), you just want to have authority to chase terrorists. You won't bother innocent Americans- ANY MORE. WE KNOW HOW YOU DON'T BOTHER PEOPLE, LOUIE- AND WE DEMAND THAT YOU STOP. START LOOKING OUT FOR THE CONSTITUTION- aren't you sworn to uphold it?- AND STOP LOOKING OUT FOR FREEHDOM. How many pictures do you have of me? I hope they are better ones than the one you used to *positively ID Derek Underwood.* William Michael Kemp 7/28/96
