NARLO'S Message is Being Heard All Across America | |
by Ron Ewart, President National Association of Rural Landowners Copyright April 21, 2008 - All Rights Reserved | |
Most of you are privy to our frequent articles about freedom, liberty, property rights, the constitution, eminent domain, environmentalism, illegal immigration and more. All of these issues effect the landowners' property rights in one form or another. We actually formed NARLO because of what King County, Washington was doing to rural landowners of the county by passing draconian environmental regulations that only affected them. It became abundantly clear that all of these new environmental laws fell disproportionately on the rural landowner, while the city folk were left virtually scot-free. The rural landowner had little to no representation in the governmental process and is effectively disenfranchised. It was our intent that NARLO would increase that representation to a meaningful level. At first our messages were being distributed to a growing e-mail list. Then certain on-line freedom and property rights websites picked up our articles and started printing them regularly. The Eco-logic Power House on-line Magazine (Henry Lamb) published 36 of our articles in a row, one every week from March 2007 through the end of the year, when they had a computer crash that took them off the air, temporarily. Other websites were re-printing our articles from the Power House website. The Federal Observer, the Reagan Wing, the Price of Liberty, the Good Neighbor Law, the Klamath Falls Bucket Brigade websites were other on-line magazines that picked up our work as well. Now the Canada Free Press is publishing our articles. We received an e-mail today that said that the sender was going to publish our last article, "A Message to Every Politician", in two major Michigan Newspapers. Our messages and influence were beginning to grow across the country as a result. Folks logged onto the NARLO website and started purchasing our No Trespassing signs, which now have been installed on hundreds of properties in over 23 states. Others joined NARLO and became members. Because of our growing outreach, our articles were being forwarded to individuals all over America. We hear from a new landowner almost every day. But today, our work has finally paid off in spades. Today we were contacted by a syndicated radio talk show host to be on his program tomorrow as a guest. We will be able to promote our website and our new YouTube videos under our NARLO'S FREEDOM CHRONICLES project. Here are the links to the first two videos. Please forward the links if you deem them worthy. We are working with primitive equipment and the quality is not up to our standards. However, as our resources grow, we will improve on that quality. Volume I - "From Sea to Shining Sea" www.youtube.com/watch?v=kkeDcvRf50s Volume II - "The Heart of America" www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0rWn3JzDog Apparently one of our articles was forwarded to a lady in New Mexico. She then forwarded the article to a Jim Slinsky who heads up a multi-radio station network in which he broadcasts the Outdoor Talk Network on issues relating to the outdoors, fishing, camping, hunting, etc. His regular broadcast has been going on now for eleven years. Out of the blue he called me this morning and said he was so moved by the article he received from the lady in New Mexico, that he invited me to be on his radio program tomorrow morning where he will speak to me by telephone and record the conversation for a later broadcast. The issues of course will be property rights and other issues facing landowners, as well as all Americans. He will also plug our website and our youtube videos. This came as an opportunity that we never thought possible. This just goes to prove that a message that resonates can get people's attention. A message that resonates can move people to action. NARLO is growing and our "words" are resonating with those who are finally waking up to what their government has been doing to them for the last 80 to 100 years. First, we were told that what we were trying to do could not be done. We didn't believe them. Even discouraged and frustrated we persevered and it appears our significant efforts are finally being rewarded. We could not have accomplished what we have done without the help from many of you and we want to convey our gratitude and thanks for those of you who supported and encouraged us during a start-up phase that had failure written all over it. But we are not going to fail. NARLO'S message is now being heard all over America and our audience is growing. As we grow, our resources must grow as well. If you haven't already, please give us a hand, if you can. | |
