Ron Paul's Campaign For Liberty Responds To Missouri's
"Terrorist" Claims
Vows to take petition "straight to the top"

 Ron
Paul's Campaign For Liberty group has responded to a report
compiled for law officials in Missouri that equates supporters
of the Texas Congressman with radical race hate groups and terrorists.
As we detailed
last week, the report, which has been handed out
to Missouri police officers, specifically describes supporters
of presidential candidates Ron Paul, Chuck Baldwin, and Bob
Barr as “militia” influenced terrorists.
The report, distributed by the Missouri Information
Analysis Center, also instructs the Missouri police to be on
the lookout for supporters displaying bumper stickers and other
paraphernalia associated with the Constitutional, Campaign for
Liberty, and Libertarian parties.
Now the Campaign For Liberty group intends to
deliver a Citizen's
Petition to the Missouri Governor and Attorney
General, which will highlight the offensive and inflammatory
content contained within the MIAC report.
"Here at Campaign for Liberty we are going
to give this foolishness the treatment it deserves." writes
John Tate, the group's President in an email to members.
"It is important that we respond in the right
way when faced with such a government labeling, and the proper
way is to go straight to the top in Missouri."
"The 'study' was undoubtedly written by some
university liberal who knows nothing of the hundreds of thousands
of Missourians who share our values. I can only imagine how
many hundreds of thousands of Missouri tax dollars funded this."
Tate adds.
The Missouri report is the latest in a long line
of documents and literature intended to train police nationwide
that supporters of Constitutionally-limited government must
be labeled and targeted as potential security threats.
We urge our readers to sign the
Campaign for Liberty's Citizen's Petition and help
the group expose such freedom stripping activity.

Below is The Campaign For Liberty's response
in full.
March 17, 2009
Dear Friend of Liberty,
Maybe you've heard, or maybe not, but the Missouri State
Police think you might be a security threat.
Why? Because you support Ron Paul and the Campaign for
Liberty. Also, because maybe you own guns, oppose abortion or
homeschool.
Even, and I'm serious, because you support the U.S. Constitution.
I know, it's ridiculous...and probably steams you a bit.
But here at Campaign for Liberty we are going to give this
foolishness the treatment it deserves. More on that in a moment.
Let me give you a bit more background.
As you may be aware by now, the Missouri Information Analysis
Center (MIAC) recently released a report titled, "The Modern
Militia Movement" to over one thousand Missouri law enforcement
officers.
What is the Missouri Information Analysis Center? According
to its website,
"MIAC is the mechanism to collect incident reports
of suspicious activities to be evaluated and analyzed in an
effort to identify potential trends or patterns of terrorist
or criminal operations within the state of Missouri. MIAC will
also function as a vehicle for two-way communication between
federal, state and local law enforcement community within our
region."
The MIAC warned officers that violent militia members are
"usually" supporters of presidential candidates like
Ron Paul and are also known for opposition to things like the
Federal Reserve and the income tax.
The "study" was undoubtedly written by some university
liberal who knows nothing of the hundreds of thousands of Missourians
who share our values. I can only imagine how many hundreds of
thousands of Missouri tax dollars funded this.
Both Ron Paul and Campaign for Liberty champion principles
of freedom, peace, and prosperity. We believe that the Founder's
vision for America can be reclaimed through education and peaceful
activism. It is a common practice of elitist intellectuals and
backroom bureaucrats to attempt to crowd everyone into groups
and stick labels on them, especially when it involves those
who support a Constitutionally-limited government.
Anthony Gregory, editor-in-chief at Campaign for Liberty,
has posted an excellent new article on our site concerning government
broad-brush fear campaigns.
It is important that we respond in the right way when faced
with such a government labeling, and the proper way is to go
straight to the top in Missouri.
The way to fight thugs and ignorant people in authority
is not to cower or rage, but to proudly proclaim who you are
and what you believe.
That's why I urge you to sign our Citizen's Petition here
today.
Our petition spells out in no uncertain terms who we are
and what we believe. And it reminds those in charge of enforcing
Missouri's laws that we are citizen activists who will not be
intimidated nor embarrassed into silence.
Simply owning a gun does not make you a threat. It means
you are a free citizen.
Supporting our Constitution does not make you worthy of
a watchlist, it makes you a Patriot.
So please, sign our Citizen's Petition today. Be sure to
stay tuned for more information on how we plan to respond to
the MIAC.
Finally, I want to ask you a final favor. If you can, please
join us next week as we gather in St. Louis for the first Campaign
for Liberty Regional Conference and show the people of Missouri
what Campaign for Liberty truly stands for and represents.
We will be hosting a free event on Friday Night with Ron
Paul and Judge Andrew Napolitano that is open to the public,
and the conference will be highlighted by grassroots training
on Saturday, March 28.
Learning how to properly mobilize in order to implement
liberty-based legislation is absolutely critical to our success
as a movement, and our Regional Conference will provide you
with the tools you need as we move forward.
For more information on our Conference, check out our Regional
Conference page. For special travel and hotel information, click

Liberty is never free, and demands vigilance.
I look forward to seeing you in St. Louis for an exciting
weekend of celebration and training!
In Liberty,
John Tate
President, Campaign for Liberty
P.S. And don't forget to fill out our Citizen's Petition,
which we will deliver to the Missouri Governor and Attorney
General.
