Governor Bill Haslams deliberate attempt to make Tennessee Sharia compliant- The Timeline

Governor Bill Haslams deliberate attempt to make Tennessee Sharia compliant- The Timeline 

Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam has made it clear by his repeated actions that he will pursue a policy that promotes the interest of Islamist and their radical ideology as long as he is governor.

The attempted takeover of our great state by the left, the progressive or the communist was expected. What was not expected was the underhanded approach by Governor Bill Haslam to dismantle our sovereignty one step at a time, methodically, making our state Sharia compliant with his policies.

Republican In Name Only Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam has done all within his power to provide the venue for our demise. 

Governor Bill Haslam is undeniably preparing our state to be Sharia compliant utilizing a very powerful political Islamic machine that is hell bent on overriding our Constitution for the demands of a few while injecting their own beliefs on the majority demanding that the Constitution be upheld! 

Governor Haslams intent must be questioned. His seemingly purposeful  yielding to political Islam must be countered.

Governor Haslam, big Oil Billionaire,  big coal investor has positioned himself to be a middle eastern darling of CAIR, AMAC, ACO, Al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood and by his actions is doing all within his power to promote a nutrient rich environment for Islam/Sharia to flourish. The naiveté and neckbreak speed he is moving forward is detestable. 

The timeline below puts his efforts into a chronological order of which he can’t deny. 

His meaningful steps to turn our state into a sharia compliant state while pacifying political Islam is obvious when you look at the steps that he and those around him have taken to get us there chronologically.

From his liberal “Mayors against Guns” days to the Muslim Diversity class given by Islamic extremists with a healthy assist from the DOJ, AMAC and the FBI is proof that this mans agenda does not include keeping our state sovereign and all our rights on equal footing.

He, whether he acknowledges it or not is paving the way, purposefully, and it should be stopped immediately. His actions are louder than his words.

The duality inside the political Islamic machine must be understood before our own Governor Bill Haslam sees his errant ways and to date he shows no signs of repentance.

Some Americans are expressing we honor their rights while expecting others to give up others inalienable God given rights does not seem like fair play prime for negotiation.  

Changing the laws to make others political wishes dominant is not a way to gain acceptance of your way of life or acceptance of your religious beliefs.

For Governor Bill Haslam to seemingly have the ability to make this happen with a wave of his wand sounds less than desirable inside a constitutional republic that is begging for sound leadership.

The visual timeline of the Haslam deception cannot be denied. The items were compiled and although not all inclusive sheds light on the methodical dismantling of our state by one man dead set on placating to political Islam while ignoring the rights and beliefs of the remaining 99 percent throughout the state.

Read and weep if you desire:

I would just say that on that issue I don’t agree with Rick.”

June 2013- Sends DOJ and FBI to prepare Manchester residents for acceptance of Sharia into their communities and to warn of negative posts about Islam on social websites you may face fines and imprisonment. Haslams office denies any knowledge of diversity event in Manchester TN.

The journey you just took should be more than enough to convince you that Governor Haslam has someone in his pocket. The “bank” so to speak should be obvious and should be enough to make you ask him some questions. Let’s assume he is not listening. While his head is turned let’s elect someone that cares about Tennesseeans!

Remember this timeline on election day!

Manchester Muslims take from leftist playbook, “when you have nothing else, call them racist.”

In Uncategorized on June 11, 2013 at 4:12 AM

Manchester Muslims take from leftist playbook, “when you have nothing else, call them racist.”

The seemingly docile, reserved appearance of the Muslim Diversity Acceptance delegation in Manchester has gone into attack mode in local media leaving any dignity in the hallway of the Manchester Convention Center. 

After failing to provide a viable argument as to why they should be given special rights while depriving others of their first amendment rights, they expectedly turn to the race card! Why not? Everyone else does.

Poorly delivered talking points and a piss poor depiction propaganda film was not enough to win over the crowd and persuade the attendees from giving up their first amendment rights. 

Their disgust grew as the evening waned on and a rather stoic submissive delegation turned cynical and even taunting those in attendance seeking constructive info from them, possibly a hint of radicalism surfacing as tension and resistance mounts, a dark cloud is rising above the meeting!

The objective of convincing the masses to play nice and adopt Sharia Law was a miserable failure and was observed in their mannerisms throughout the evening.

The plan to bypass the Constitution was dismantled by many freedom loving citizens, most from the great state of Tennessee and from neighboring states. 

Let me assure you this is not only a Manchester issue, this is an national issue. 

These attempts to shred the Constitution are not isolated to little Manchester Tennessee.

My question is why wasn’t our diverse crowd accepted by this delegation? Doesn’t the door swing both ways? Why would a peaceful political system resign to calling those that gathered racist? Is this not hate speech? Perhaps not. Perhaps so!

They are also denying that the purpose of the meeting was to somehow bridle social media posts and to keep you from making negative posts about political Islam. 

The Tullahoma News shared this from the beginning and made a point to highlight this in their column pre meeting. 

This delegation was hoping to buzz into town, whisper a little propaganda and then proceed with their freedom eliminating ways unchecked with an escort from the federal government.

What these Muslims Americans failed to recognize and managed to label  incorrectly was the fact that what they witnessed on June 4, 2013 was angry fed up Americans tired of seeing their Constitution being stepped on, shredded and disrespected, defending their rights.

This group saw first hand the resolve of the American people to
keep their country pure, acknowledging only the Constitution and the distinct freedoms that go with it.

In a desperate attempt to somehow seem superior, The Muslim Diversity delegation called the meeting akin to a KKK rally, an old fashioned KKK rally! That is original! Never heard that before! 

Really? “A KKK rally, an old fashioned KKK rally?”

Is that all you got? For real? I am pretty sure and confident this was not a  Klan rally!

And this brings me to a curious word picture.  How do they know what an old fashioned Klan rally looks like? 

Did they forget that these folks, although misguided, tacky and look horrible in hooded sheets have the same rights under the constitution to gather peacefully as their CAIR, OIC, AMAC  groups sponsored and supported by the Muslim Brotherhood terrorist group. 

To say the KKK is disruptive and loud how do we label these terrorists groups loving and peaceful?

The  passion and spirit shown  in Manchester Tennessee is what has kept this country free for over 250 years. 

You just crossed over into and disgraced the blood line of many patriots who have given their life to prevent you from attempting exactly what you did this past week, circumventing the Constitution using the federal government as your shield.

You cant blame these “peaceful and loving” members of Islam for mislabeling such an event inside a free constitutional republic because they have no example of which to compare. 

The best example they have is in the many middle eastern countries where a gathering as large as this usually results in riots, deaths, hangings, beheadings, burnings and alot more shouting and disruption. So, I guess they expected the same.

It seems they were looking for that one event to sound the sirens to silence the majority. 

I believe they were a little dissappointed the evening went off without a single incident. 

Not a single recording of a law being broken. Not a single video with some sort incriminating sound bite, no violence whatsoever.

This left them with the old “go to solution, call them racist, that will sway public opinion and make us look shiny and bright!  Not!

You have gone to this bank a few hundred times too many and the race card is worn out and needing a rest. 

It is sad the diversity group went into non diversity mode on us but hey you gotta give it the ole college try. Right? After all, old habits die hard!

Let this be clear. The unmistakable fervor in the room you saw in Manchester is called fighting for our freedoms and standing against injustice, peacefully.

If this offends a Muslim and forces the race card, so be it. We were not asking for their acceptance when we we went into the room and we didn’t ask for it on the way out. We were demanding you leave our freedoms alone and asking you to
assimilate into our culture or simply leave our great country on your own accord. 

Why is it that we have to be the ones needing diversity training, why aren’t they attending a meeting to assimilate into our communities? I guess it would be too much to ask a Muslim to live like the rest of the 260 million or so Americans do! We coexist and it has worked pretty good so far, why can’t you? We are not asking you to give up your rights but you are mine! 

What they don’t realize is there is a push back in this country against attempts of the left to negatively change our country and a modern day revolution was indeed started in Manchester and it is spreading like wildfire across the nation and not just in Rutherford or Coffee County, the whole nation.

Americans are just about to meet their fill limit and are beginning to finally say “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!” 

Loving your country and speaking out to save it does not make those that attended the meeting racist, it makes them freedom loving Americans dead set on keeping it free. 

In the words of Braveheart as he pounced around on his horse before meeting the enemy while thrusting his fist in the air shouting,  “FREEDOM!!! FREEDOM!!!!”

This my friend is the rumbling you hear, this is a freedom yell, a defensive stance, a far cry from a KKK rally! 

Sensible Americans know this, your insensitivity and  irresponsible words delivered today shows your disdain for a civilized crowd that didn’t appease and bow to your wishes. You didnt get your way and now you cry racist. Poor pitiful you!

Id even go as far to call this a new form of hate speech…………Attorney Killian? FBI Agent Moore? Wanna enforce some Title 18 US Prosecutory Code? Here is you something to do? Did you hear what they called us? Yep racist! Shame on them! 

Don’t mess with the US!

We love her!

DOJ/FBI to criminalize free speech in TN, imprisonment for negative posts against political Islam

In Uncategorized on June 3, 2013 at 8:49 AM

DOJ/FBI to criminalize free speech in TN, imprisonment for negative posts against political Islam

Lurking in the hills of Manchester, just southeast of Nashville Tennessee is the setting of what many believe could be the showdown to the eventual realization that our first amendment, the Bill of Rights and the Constitution are a thing of the past.

The belief that our nations future, our ability to express ourselves in free speech lies in the hands of a few people within the Department of Justice and the FBI while representing and protecting a political system that has serious links to the Muslim Brotherhood.

For a moment, when I first heard of this Muslim Diversity acceptance meeting in Manchester TN, I thought a dialogue might be established and a  path to communication might be open to discuss our differences as Islam attempts to assimilate into our culture. Perhaps a hope that if different cultures somehow meet in the middle something good may come from it adopting the slogan “to COEXIST.” 

The fleeting belief that to live in America would mean that the first amendment would stand for us all and our nation would continue to spin as it has for more than 250 years under the consistent application of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution.

Little did I know that the table has already been set, the meal ordered and I get whatever is delivered to me. 

 My opinion, my rights placed on hold because a political system of Islam is demanding it and we have a broken system of justice that assures them their rights only will be protected.

The great state of Tennessee is being manhandled by an overreaching federal government with no respect for the Constitution or the state boundaries that restrain them. Coupled with that the fact that we, by large do not have elected leaders that will step in and stop this all out assault on our country. 

Quickly the realization sets in that this was not about how can we learn from Americans or how we can better serve the needs of our community but how “strangers” to our country can enforce their beliefs on the majority inside a constitutional republic seemingly despondent to the laws of our land.

How can these Americans who are offered the same rights as me somehow expect me to put aside my rights because their political views do not sync with mine.

When I put the puzzle together it was not about religious tolerance but about Americans becoming sharia compliant, tolerant and accepting of a political system that does not honor our Constitution. We are now being led into the abyss where the rights of many are being ignored. The path that we are taking is surely one of demise when we selectively protect political systems ignoring or stripping others of that same right.

The shell game is over the right one lifted and the pattern of disillusionment is revealed. Political Islam and it’s tenets of acceptance and diversity have been uncovered and exposed.

The DOJ and the FBI are once again bullying their way into Tennessee and basically ignoring the rights of Native Tennesseans and enforcing their warped version of justice in a free country via a sovereign state. 

Unfairly, unevenly pulling rank on everyday citizens while “having the backs” of these Islamic Americans with sinister associations is way beyond what I can comprehend in one afternoon of research.

Suspending the Constitutional rights and beliefs of roughly 99 percent for a demanding political system representing 1 percent doesnt quite meet the definition of a fair trade.

Governor Bill Haslam, ex Governor and now US Senator Lamar Alexander are primary players in this scheme to hijack our constitution and placate to the minority. Governor Haslam and Alexander have been given a pass for way to long on this issue as well as others who have bought into the deception. They should be called out in their involvement of this unconstitutional rape of our rights and met with deep resistance come election day.

In a small town called Manchester Tennessee, US Attorney for East TN Bill Killian and the Federal Bureau of Investigation will be holding a meeting to tell Tennesseans of their rights, or should I correct myself and say the rights of the political Islamists.

Killian and the FBI want us to know it is against federal law to speak out against political Islam. What federal law? Where is it against the law to speak your mind in a free America? The mere thought that the DOJ and the FBI can come into small town America and say what we can and cannot do is preposterous and begs one to ask what are their motives inside our Constitutional Republic and where they are aligned?

Why is a US Attorney with close ties  to AG Eric Holder addressing this issue in TN ? 

Why is the government suppressing the right to free speech in favor of the rights of political Islam?

Why are the local papers in Tullahoma embracing this idea that free speech should be squelched?

Why is the DOJ and the FBI telling us where our ethics must lie? 

Why and who emblazoned the US government to intimidate the citizens of the United States by suggesting that writing blogs, posting free speech in social media that it’s a federal crime to state facts about political Islam?

This is about more than religion and “culture”, this is about suppression of freedom of speech inside the greatest nation in the world……period!  

Next up to the stage, The United Nations and it’s “Declaration of Human Rights.”

For many years and in recent history the UN has attempted to convince the US to give up it’s first amendment rights and go along with the rest of the “international bodies” and adopt a law against blasphemy called the Defamation of Religions Law! 

This law has been struck down inside the UN by the United States on several occasions. 

I believe the DOJ, FBI and AMAC along with the OIC and CAIR are using this event in Manchester TN to be a flashpoint for legislation at the state and national level.

The DOJ and the FBI seemingly has a newfound authority and jurisdiction enforcing international laws on the states under the guise that the laws they speak of are from the federal level of government. The Defamation of Religions Law has never been ratified within the United States. 

In other words, you are forcing Americans to adhere to a law that doesn’t even exist nor has it had a chance in hades of becoming law in TN let alone the United States but yet you pretend it exists to meet your political agenda.

These actions inside a totalitarian state might go unnoticed but to be able to pull this off inside America will meet heavy resistance. 

Enforcing a law that only exists in the minds of globalists intent on ruining this great country with an international handout is visible to the naked eye and will not happen in Tennessee, not in the United States.

Nearly 47 percent of the countries and territories in the world have laws or policies that penalize blasphemy, which is in political Islam punishable by death! 

THE UNITED STATES DOES NOT AND WILL NOT punish  Americans for exercising their rights to free speech.

Please pay attention to this international law called “Defamation of Religion Law!” I personally believe this is the path to losing our freedom and our first amendment rights. 

If they are successful in little Manchester Tennessee, I believe they will have the precedence to masterfully bypass the Bill of Rights and the Constitution and change the face of our nation forever, the US becoming Sharia compliant.

We must rely on our legislators and elected leaders to make the right decisions.

Interestingly, within days of this meeting, June 4th, Barrack Obama is expected to sign into
Law the UNs Small Arms Treaty! Coincidence? I believe fate or destiny would be the favored word!

Plan to be there! 

June 4th, 2013, Muslim Diversity acceptance class with DOJ/FBI considering making it a crime leading to imprisonment for posting negative remarks about Islam.

Clean Water Act: EPA blasts Bradley Counties Wright Brothers Construction with heftiest fine ever

In Uncategorized on December 20, 2011 at 9:18 AM

The EPA sues a local business that employs thousands of workers and feeds perhaps thousands in this county for nearly 3 million dollars, the single largest fine in the history of the EPA under the federL governments green initiative the Clean Water Act!

The Charleston, Tennessee construction company that has provided millions in new roads and enough jobs to offset anything the Chamber of Commerce, Amazon or Wacker have ever tried to do and can you believe not a single word of support in their favor by a single person in the current administration of the city mayor, county executive, the city council, the county mayor, county commissioner, city or county Sherrif or any of their deputies, state representatives x 2, state senator, congressman, US Senator x 2 or the governor in the great state of Tennessee has said a word in their defense! Can you believe it? You know why? The federal government has castrated these leaders who are apparently absent of any cahunas to stand up and dare defend a local that employs hundreds perhaps thousands!

Local State Representative Kevin Brooks 24th District Tennessee who received thousands of dollars in campaign funds from Wright Brothers and not a word I have heard uttered publicly in their defense! People this is America, this is small business doing well and if we can’t defend that great honor to work hard and be successful we might as well just toss in the towel now cause we are doomed! Where are you Mr. Brooks on this issue, come out wherever you are!

We are under attack by the very people you told me that if they did anything like you speak of “we will not let them do it” Well, Mr Commissioner, who sits on the far right of the oval, they are doing what you said would probably never happen, “we would never cast a vote to let something like that happen” Well, that time has come and gone! Eat these words, chew them slowly, digest them rapidly because there are many more fines that will be dealt on to the many good businesses in our county and you know why they will? Because you have given them the power to do so!

The Mayors x 2 and both of their councils have married this beast and have openly refused to stand up and say anything to stop the onslaught of the EPA, DOT and HUD! you accepted millions in federal grants that allowed this to happen! This is on you, current administration of elected representatives! State Representatives Brooks and Watson, while on your state watch, you refused to say a thing, although I begged heavily for you to stop this onslaught! Political correctness is no longer accepted as the excuse! Families and businesses you represen are bow being affected by the Feds because you accept a few dollars I’m grant money in return!

Did you know our sherrifs could tell the EPA to stand down and not fine these job creators! Did you know that? Yes they can! They can protect our county and city and they can officially run them the hell out of Tennessee! They are our guardians!

They took an oath to protect you and the businesses you run! They have this power! They can keep the federal government and the EPA at bay with one strong showing of their badges! Is there anyone that wants to stand up for the working class? Are we too numb? Do we think that whatever the EPA or the Federal government deals out we are obligated to take it? States have rights too and we can step up and protect her!

The obvious problem is noone has a set, they were chopped off when the grant money was accepted! It is so sad that a man of any character has yet to stand up and defend the entrepreneur called Wright Brothers Construction!

Get in line, any other business that dares deal with the devil, accept their money and be expected to jump through their hoops! Farmers, the fines I warned you of many times are coming to you too!

The EPA with some far out idea that the Wright brothers have somehow stopped the spawning of some pink salmon a thousand miles downstream by blocking some 150 linear feet of creek bed with dirt and residue from all the construction they have done is the main problem, good God help us all! This is the crux of the lawsuit and fines of nearly 3 million dollars!

Let’s pretend now that you decide to move a mound of dirt that may somehow, in their personal and professional opinion may block the water to a 2 inch smelt some 350 miles south of us! Let this be your backyard and let’s pretend you own a dairy farm. That dairy farm that you vehemently denied water to by blocking the natural flow of water, you risk having your dairy farm being foreclosed upon because you can’t pay the fines that the EPA brings down on you because “carbon” and minerals can’t flow downstream!

The fines may accumulate every month or so and their is nothing you can do about it! The EPA HAS SEALED THE DEAL!

The regional plan that the Mayors have so willingly signed off on is the real problem! You see they have given you the full shaft! They have sold your soul to the devil! The regional growth plan with the insistence of ICLEI and the Chattanooga planners has made this a reality!

Read the rest of this article in the banner and tell me if we are not in trouble! We are on a dead street and nothing you cam be done to prevent it shirt of replacing all the spineless leaders with a new batch willing to protect our county and state! It’s time!

Let’s just bend over and say as Tony Soprano used to say “fugget bout it” its only a thang!

Below is a copy from the EPAs website boasting of this huge fine which is revenue for them to hire more agents to do the same in greater amounts! This is what they have done in other states before Tennessee!

(Washington, DC – December 12, 2011) The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced Wright Brothers Construction Co. and the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) have agreed to pay a $1.5 million dollar penalty and spend more than $1.3 million to offset environmental damages to resolve alleged violations of the Clean Water Act (CWA). The civil penalty is one of the largest ever under the CWA provisions prohibiting the unauthorized discharge of dredged or fill material into waters of the United States.

The proposed Consent Decree in this matter resolves a Clean Water Act (CWA) civil judicial action for violations stemming from the unlawful disposal of excess rock and soil generated from the expansion of U.S. Route 441 and U.S. Route 76 in Rabun County, Ga. 

The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) conducted the highway expansion projects and hired Wright Brothers Construction Company (Wright Brothers) to dispose of excess material generated from the projects. The contracts between GDOT and Wright Brothers specifically required Wright Brothers to obtain environmental clearance from GDOT prior to using any site as a fill site. GDOT approved sites that included streams considered to be waters of the United States.

Wright Brothers is headquartered in Charleston, Tenn. and performs site preparation, grading, excavating, highway and heavy construction services.

Violations

The Defendants violated Sections 301 and 404 of the CWA by discharging dredged and/or fill material into waters of the United States without, or in violation of, a permit issued under Section 404 of the CWA by the Army Corps of Engineers. 

Between 2004 and 2007, the Defendants buried and/or piped seven primary trout streams while disposing of excess material generated from the U.S. Route 441 and U.S. Route 76 expansion projects.  These actions impacted approximately 2,800 linear feet of stream.
