www.BlockBlackwater.com // www.CourageCampaign.org. Blackwater wants to build a mercenary training base in Potrero, CA, a small town just a few miles from the California/Mexico border, on 824 acres of land, consisting of 15 firing ranges, a helipad, and a heavy vehicle operator's course covering the equivalent of 10 football fields.

Local community leaders like Carl Meyer are working hard to keep Blackwater out of their community. On December 11, 2007, Carl and the "Save Potrero" group successfully recalled the entire Potrero Community Planning Group that had approved Blackwater's plans.

But it's not over. Now, it's up to the San Diego County Board of Supervisors to make the ultimate decision. Join the movement now to block Blackwater's base at www.BlockBlackwater.com and www.CourageCampaign.org

  • Blackwater scares the living hell out of me and I think it is a the greatest threat to United States of America at this time

  • "But where does a mercenary base belong?"

    In China? Iran? North Korea? Germany in 1933? Certainly not in any democracy.

    Ah, I got it - in JAIL!

    Freedom is on the march! Throw da bums out!

  • wuts the point of the video

  • Here's a scary thought - a foreign company hiring or buying out blackwater to use against US interests.

    Blackwater was formed as a loophole to Geneva conventions. Guess what pays for them - YOUR TAX DOLLARS. It is in the US interest to hire these goons to do dirty work outside of any jurisdiction - including the UN.. You can thank your military and republi-puke "leaders " for that.

  • blackwater got what they wanted... its just a matter of time before we start hearing about masked men in black going to mexico and executing diplomats and more...

  • your right

    but theres a difference between a mercenary and a private sicurity operitive not just mercenary calling themselves a private sicurity operitive

    security protects and surves

    some members of blackwater actualy want to protect our soliders but the us millitary just screws you over so you get screwed either way

  • So did you win?

  • Thank you, Carl Meyer, for having the courage to stand up to a Bush-backed plan to privatize the United States military at the expense of the true heroes of this war -- the actual United States military.

    Stop Blackwater!

  • Thank heavens, thank you, and many Congratulations on defeating the repugnantly greedy and despotic war-mongers! Bless you for standing up for what is right, the Great Spirit smiles upon you.

    For all those who left negative comments, I pity your misery, you who do nothing but whine, complain, and curse.

    Right ON, Jan Hedlun and Carl Meyers, who showed us all we don't need guns to defend ourselves. You should be proud, as we are proud of you. Thank you, once again.

  • Thank you for your courage. May everyone who worked on this victory be blessed with the PEACE they rightfully earned. May all who view this gain the courage to fight for true American values and bring an end to our current Administration's shameful behavior through voting for peace, standing for peace, and living peace.
