Travis Munroe Townsend Is A Patriot, Not A Criminal!

Glendale, AZ—Arizonans are taxed to death. Many can barely afford to keep a roof over their heads, feed their families and must go without health insurance.

Despite this Arizona’s never ending supply of government bureaucrats have plush officers, take home vehicles and too many perks to mention. Arizona’s government grows faster than cancer. It’s become a monster that feeds on the backs of everyone and there is no control in sight.

Arizona has installed new speed cameras on Arizona highways that spit out well over 40,000 tickets in just two months of operation. Does Arizona have a huge accident problem that led to this draconian enforcement? No, but they have a revenue crisis because of over-spending and runaway government growth.

In the spirit that made this country, a Glendale man is accused of taking a pickaxe to a photo enforcement camera. Travis Munroe Townsend, 26, was charged with criminal damage, interference with a traffic-control device and criminal trespass.

The felony charges may well give Townsend grief for the rest of his life as the young man looks for employment opportunities. Hard hit by the cost of living in Arizona, is Townsend himself who works as a subsitute teacher. Townsend is an American patriot not an outlaw.

If ever there was a case for jury nullification and a Not Guilty verdict this is the one. Townsend’s “crime” is no more or less than that of those Americans that dumped tea into Boston Harbor so long ago. We need thousands more motivated freedom loving citizens just like Townsend to say no to runaway government.













Here is a press release from the Arizona Department of Public safety
on the traffic camera program.

In Britain they have 5,000 of these fixed devices and hundreds of mobile patrols ripping off motorists. The most likely people to get ticketed are older people doing 33 in a 30 limit. It's a revenue raising scam pure and simple.

Paul, I don’t know whether to call you a Liberal or a Conservative. You’re all over the place.

You’re pro-gun rights, anti-illegal immigration, anti-death penalty as you demand rights for people accused or suspected of crimes. You wage all out war on the TSA. You want a total end to drug enforcement. Now you want to let a man go that damaged thousands of dollars of public property.

You detest government doing more than the bare essentials.

I swear you must be an Anarchist. I have to say I agree with you too much of the time.

Any government that would attempt to disarm its people is despotic; and any people that would submit to it deserve to be slaves!

Since Travis is a school teacher, who better to teach kids about the Bill of rights and the Boston Tea party?

Palin for president, Townsend for Vice President!

He is not a hero, a patriot, he is a moron, who just did something stupid that will ruin his life. No school will hire him now, and why, because of some stupid camera?

They are there, so deal with it in a mature manner and what Travis did was not mature.

Take it from someone who grew up on the mean streets of Arizona, if you do something here, you do it quiet.

The dumb ass moron should of purchased a can of black spray paint, and tagged the cameras. Then they would blame it on gang bangers, not some dumb ass white boy.

Then he could of gotten more then just the one camera, and best of all, the Goverment you all so much hate, would not even notice it for a while..

Think before you act Travis, and maybe your dumb ass would of not gotten caught if you just tagged the damn camera, and blacked out the protective glass.

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

The origin of the feature film, COME FRIDAY…

CLick On the pictures to see full size versions. Long ago there was a young lady I had the hots for in a big way (Yes, I know that hots is not a word). She was pretty, incredibly bright, and had some real elegance about her. She had a love for children and basic kindness that you don’t often see in someone her age. I met her parents and could understand she came from a much more stable home than mine. I was raised by a single, welfare mom and suddenly found myself way out-classed. For whatever reasons things did not workout they way I had hoped. Sadly for me, we went on our separate ways. From time to time I’d run into this lady in various places where our job had taken us. Whenever this happened my heart would skip a beat or two. I left my hometown Chicago, and moved to Arizona where I founded my detective agency. As a private eye and soon a TV news producer too, my career took me to the highest profile criminal events in Arizona and throughout the country. There’s no question that ...

America Will See Its Worst Race Riot Yet This Summer

Star Prosecution Witness, Rachel Jeantel Sanford, FL —Yes, the George Zimmerman trial here has thousands of African-Americans getting ready for some serious bloodletting. I don’t want to make idle and dire predictions but this nation has never been so divided and racially sensitive.  Our African-American President took sides on this case at the very beginning.  That ratified a George Zimmerman guilty verdict in the minds of millions. There’s just one little problem, and that is the murder case should have never been filed.  It was filed purely for political reasons despite the fact that it was a simple justifiable homicide.  Zimmerman was on the block watch lookout program and followed a suspicious Trayvon Martin after he used an improper entrance to a gated community.  Zimmerman was acting as the eyes and ears of the Sanford Police Department. Martin did not like being followed and knew that he could easily beat up the out-of-shape...
