PASTOR ARRESTED FOR QUOTING THE BIBLE- BOYCOTT WHIRLPOOL, part.2

These two communities are adjacent to opposite sides of the same river;
the stark numbers tell a story and the story includes the grinding
poverty, the systematic dehumanization most often associated with the
world's most disgusting institution, Chattel Slavery as was legalized and practiced for hundreds of years in the Americas.
camps.

How is this happening here in our United States, the onetime beacon of
freedom and liberty to a weary world?

Ask Rev. Pinkney this question -- a man who has waged a David and
Goliath struggle against the giant Whirlpool for years here in Benton
Harbor--and you will hear a tale of-out-of-control law officers and the
senseless killing of a young black man, ensuing riots and the beginning
of an intense monitoring of courtroom proceedings at the Berrien County
Courthouse.

Pinkney and his loyal band, BANCO among them, also picketed the local
papers (including The Herald Palladium owned by a wealthy Paxton, KY
family) demanding that they supply objective news reporting and coverage
of those involved in these racist and corrupt proceedings.

BANCO and Pinkney were successful in obtaining the recall of a corrupt
city commissioner named Glen Yarbrough who was in the pay of Whirlpool.
This recall was overturned by the power elite and they attempted
retribution against Pinkney in the form of charges of election fraud and
vote tampering, saying that Pinkney paid for votes and had absentee
ballots in his pocket, both of which charges were completely unfounded.

The first trial, with a jury which included two blacks, resulted in a
hung jury. A new trial was ordered and the residents of Benton Harbor
came out in support of Pinkney both inside the courthouse and in the
surrounding parking area.

The residents of Benton Harbor are united in their opposition to the
usurpation of their community by Whirlpool and they are demanding a full
investigation into this affair by the Senate Judiciary Committee.

By attacking and criminalizing Rev. Pinkney--who has done nothing but
demand fair court proceedings and truthful news coverage for his
community--the power elite hope to stop any further initiatives among
the oppressed community to stand up to racism, economic exploitation and
the passing of public land and funds into corporate hands.

We can't wait for others to defend us. Corporate fascism and racism MUST
STOP. Will our communities and loved ones be the next in line for
corporate take over?

Your support is urgently needed both in Rev. Pinkney's heroic struggle
for justice and fair courtroom proceedings and the ongoing battle to
stop the corporate takeover of public land and community assets.

We must all demand the resignation of corrupt Judge Alfred Butzbaugh and
his dishonest prosecutor Gerald Vigansky.

All individuals and organizations are urged to immediately sign up,
write letters, etc., in favor of clemency. We already have hundreds and
hundreds of letters that we obtained for sentencing. We need updated
letters. Benton Harbor and Pinkney need many letters (5000 would be
fantastic) sent to:

We need to use our rights as Americans. Too many of us are pacified by all the electronic gadgets we have. Put down the Wii and T.V. remote, and DO SOMETHING!!!!! We must e-mail those who hold office, when they don't respond to the people's NEEDS we take ACTION and file recalls and repeals. Currently, there are recalls on Gov. Snyder, Rep. Al Pscholka, Sen. John Proos, and a repeal of Act 4 (the EM Bill). We must take to the streets in peaceful protest, and demand that we be heard. Speak out!

The Bible is said to be "sharper than a two edged sword" and getting arrested because of quoting the Bible proves its power!
