MULTICULTURISM
in America

Culture is what makes a Nation unique! Generally speaking culture defines the life style, common moral values, language, acceptable social norms, beliefs, and behavior of a Nation. If a person immigrates to a particular nation they should assimilate into that culture. If you come to live in America please assimilate into the American Culture.

It is important that people understand that multiculturism destroys nations. Multiculturism is a situation that divides people into multiple social belief groups. People who immigrate to America should become Americans by assimilating into our uniquely American culture. Throughout written history all nations that descended into multiculturism quickly lost the uniqueness of their national identity, began to have severe social disruptions, and frequently were destroyed. It is happening in many places today!

In my country-America- I am an American, even though my ethnic origin is from another country. In my country-America-I am allowed to believe in and live under those God given unalienable (not inalienable) rights of life, liberty, and property, which includes the pursuit of happiness. Also among those unalienable rights is the right to worship freely without government interference.

We who live here are people who believe in our unique American culture which gives us the opportunity to reach for our highest aspirations. Unfortunately in political and some social endeavors those seeking your vote or approval too often use ethnicity (read multiculturism) to deceive and hide their objectives. That technique creates a wrong separateness in our society. Why do people so often encumber, deceive, and misuse their ethnicity?

It is good and proper and acceptable to remember your ethnic origin. I certainly am proud of my ethnicity! Being an American does not require a person to deny or be ashamed of their ethnicity. However, to use that term to imply separateness from being completely American is extremely harmful. In most instances I do not believe that using identity terms such as Afro-American, Mexican-American, Italian-American, Polish-American, Jewish-American, etc., in any way helps one to be more American. Those prefixes signify ethnic origin--not national preference!

I refer to myself as an American---regardless of my skin color or country of ethnic origin. Refusing to (preferring not to) refer to your self as just an “American” does nothing but cause racial prejudice, misunderstanding, social unrest, and hides the true worth of you as a person---unless it intends an ulterior motive!

I love America and the American culture! If you prefer to not be an American you can immigrate to the country of your choice! For those X-Americans who do not wish to assimilate completely into our American culture as Americans, I deeply wish you would return to your X-country of choice.

Multiculturism destroys national identity and national unity and it ultimately (sometimes slowly or very quickly) destroys the nation.

Sex Abuse in Chicago?

Editor,

I want to inform the public that the ad the US~Observer publishes, “Are You a Victim of False Prosecution” is without any doubt the most profound and accurate statement that I have read with respect to our legal system and the thieves that operate within it.

My husband was falsely charged with sexual abuse in 2007 and what happened as a result has left our family devastated, both mentally and financially. We paid our first attorney $68,000 for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING and then we paid our second attorney $12,000 for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

In 2009, we were explaining our problem with a friend and they suggested we call the US~Observer. They knew of some people in the Seattle, Washington area that the Observer had helped with a similar situation. We contacted the Observer and ended up hiring Edward Snook for a mere pittance of what we had already expended. Thank God we did. At our very first meeting Mr. Snook asked us common sense questions that neither attorney had even talked about.

About 8 months after we hired the Observer the false charges against my husband were dismissed. I can’t really express our gratitude and relief and will be eternally grateful to Mr. Snook and those at the Observer who assisted him. I have no doubt that my husband would be in prison at this very moment if we hadn’t been referred to the US~Observer and acted on it.

Thank you Observer for being there and I apologize that my husband didn’t thank you publicly. He just wants to get his terrible experience behind him and forget that it ever happened. I sincerely hope you understand this and please don’t think any less of James for his decision to remain silent.

How Did My Husband Die?

To the Editor

My husband Terry died August 11, 2009. The doctor believed he came into contact with a contaminate while working. This phrase was repeated several times in the eleven hours as he lay dying. For the safety and welfare of the public an autopsy needs to be done in order to know what he came into contact with.

The doctor asked if I was agreeable to her request for and autopsy, I said yes and I signed the back of the form given to me by the hospital that had their letter-head at the top of the page. It was checked “Unlimited Autopsy.”

On August 13, 2009 the request for an autopsy was denied. Reason: “he did not warrant an autopsy.” After a talk with the doctor, she made a phone call and called me back and told me, “Terry’s death did not meet the Oregon Statutes and that everything legal that could have been done was done.”

The public should be informed of Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 146.090. It contains the following:

(1) The medical examiner shall investigate and certify the cause and manner of all human deaths:
(a) Apparently homicidal, suicidal or occurring under suspicious or unknown circumstances;
(b) Resulting from the unlawful use of controlled substances or the use or abuse of chemicals or toxic agents;
(c) Occurring while incarcerated in any jail, correction facility or in police custody;
(d) Apparently accidental or following an injury;
(e) By disease, injury or toxic agent during or arising from employment;
(f) While not under the care of a physician during the period immediately previous to death;
(g) Related to disease which might constitute a threat to the public health or in which a human body has been disposed of in an offensive manner.

On August 24, 2009 it was reported on the TV about the death of dogs in Elkton, Oregon and the public was urged to call the Douglas County Sheriff to report any sick animals or people. Since my husband had worked in Elkton at the same time the dogs died, I called and reported the death of my husband and asked if it could be related.

On August 28, 2009 a detective and a chief medical examiner came to my home and I explained the circumstances of my husband’s death. I had bagged and sealed my husband’s clothing he had worn and the detective placed the bad into a second bag, sealed it and left me a paper stating, suspicious circumstances and mis. clothing, shoes, etc. At this time the medical examiner told me for the second time that there was no record in the log book of a call coming from Reedsport requesting an autopsy or that they even knew of my husband’s death until I made the call to the sheriff on August 24th.

Since that time I have had help from “people in the know.” According to these people Terry’s death met the ORS requirements and that there is no reasonable explanation for him being denied an autopsy.

Now I’m left with a series of questions and no answers;

1. If the doctor believed that Terry came into contact with a contaminate while at work, why was it not reported to OSHA?

2. After explaining Terry’s death to the detective and the medical examiner, even if his death was not related to the death of the dogs, while they had his clothes, why were tests not done to see if a contaminate could be found?

3. Why isn’t there an autopsy form to be filled out by the doctor stating the reason or a request for an autopsy? In Terry’s case it was all done by phone. I have no way of knowing what was said during the call and NO PAPER TRAIL.

4. If, as I was told, that the medical examiner was qualified to do an autopsy for homicide, suicide, accident, or a prolonged illness in a hospital, why is there no record in the log at the medical examiner’s office in Roseburg? Should there have been a call made to Roseburg as his death fits the ORS.

5. In his medical records it reads that the source of his illness is unknown, yet his Death Certificate states, “Natural.” How can this be?

6. On August 14, 2009, three days after he died, blood was drawn and sent to a lab in Valencia, CA. A test was run for Francilla Tularensis Antibodies DNA. The bacteria is listed in the American Medical Family Clinic book, page 30 and 31 as a bioterrorist biological warfare weapon! Does this test alone confirm that the doctor believed contamination was the cause of his death? This bacteria was listed alongside Anthrax, Plague, Small Pox, and Hemorrhage Fever. Should this have raised a red flag that an autopsy should have been done?

7. On the back of the form provided me by the hospital that I signed, agreeing to an autopsy, was a line that reads as follows;

? Permission Denied check this box means an autopsy will not be performed. This box is blank. Does this mean the form was not filled in properly by the local medical examiner or does it mean an autopsy should have been performed or was the form just overlooked?

I want to thank the Beacon newspaper in Roseburg for getting in touch with “people in the know” who were able to confirm the facts I have stated above. I guess the death of my best friend, lover and husband will be my “Unsolved Mystery” for the remainder of my life.

Federal Ownership of State Lands

Dear Editor,

I recently began studying the constitution with a group of people from Austin. Having been an avid reader of your articles for the past few years, I am well aware that you regularly deal with constitutional issues.

our last meeting the group decided to have an attorney come and answer some questions that we have delved into regarding the federal government’s ownership of state lands. The constitution seems fairly clear to me, that they can’t own more than ten miles square in any state, but the group, based on the realization that the feds own much more than that in the states decided that we must be miss-interpreting Article 1 section 8.

Could you please give me some guidance on this issue or steer me in the right direction?
Thank You,

Colin Anderson
Austin, Texas

Edward Snook’s Note: Colin, you really don’t need any direction from me or anyone else other than Webster’s Dictionary. The constitution is very clear regarding the amount of land they can own within a states border: Article 1, Section 8, clause 17 – To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards and other needful Buildings. I have bolded the relevant parts of Section 8 for you.
The feds do control well over 10 miles square in most, if not all of the states. They do not own them; rather, they have unconstitutionally stolen them from the states and the people respectfully. The states governments have allowed this huge theft and in so doing, all that have gone along to get along, have completely violated their oaths of office. Our totally broken and corrupted court system has rubber-stamped the theft.
Again, the Constitution of the United States of America was written in plain English – This is your answer.
