A WARNING FROM THOMAS JEFFERSON
When it came to setting up our government, Thomas Jefferson had three concerns: tyranny of kings, tyranny of theocrats and tyranny of the wealthy. For the time being we seem to be safe from kings and theocrats. We are not, however, safe from the superrich.
Here’s what Jefferson said: “I believe the banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. If the American people ever allow banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around [the banks] will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered.” The bankers and corporations have bought and paid for our politicians, both on the Left and the Right. That’s why our elected representatives stand mute when it comes to defending the rights of working- class Americans.
It’s time to heed Jefferson’s words. It’s time to fight back.

I agreed with Larry Flint 30 years ago before we had public internet to find honest reporting of the news. In fact, Larry’s editorials were the major reason I bought Hustler every month but my wife didn’t believe it.
Larry is a true patriot who has been at the head of the charge against the corrupt tyranny we face today. Now we are at the point of no return if we do not stop the criminals who have hijacked the government, namely the Rothschild Banking Mafia who own the Federal Reserve, Israel and congress/president.

Thank you from St Louis. Its tough out here. Most jobs don’t pay enough to live on and school costs too much. Im 25 and want to finish school to be a computer technician to pay the bills and to do journalism as my passion I want to show the stories of people that will make you appreciate your own life and realize how much people struggle. The stress is terrible. I challenge you Larry as an activist to see how hard it is to live on a system where jobs aren’t guaranteed nor is full-time or even a living wage its like were being forced out is it population control? Why does my government let me struggle while it itself collects the gold?
Taxation without representation is the order of the day can’t you smell the apathy

Well, the theocrats are gaining ground. Ever since the mid seventies when that abomination, Fallwell, came on the scenes, the religiously bigoted idiots of this country have seized power with the greed of an infant on a milk teet. Don’t let them fool you. They want to run things in this country, make us a Christian Afghanistan.

I admire what Larry Flynt stands for and I’d like to see if he would be willing to help our grassroots group in Santa Clara fight the tyranny of the super-rich, big business and politicians that have been bought and paid for by the same big business.
On Jan 18, 2012, Santa Clara Plays Fair (SCPF) presented over 11,000 signatures on two petitions asking that two issues be brought to the voters in Santa Clara. The two issues on which a vote is being demanded are: (1) the $850 MILLION worth of loans that is not being loaded on our city (under the guise of a “Stadium Authority”) and (2) a new contract that totally gives the SF 49ers the upperhand on a stadium that WE are paying for.
Our City Attorney and City Council (5-2 vote) is now denying our right to vote and is EVEN SUING the Citizens and Voters in the City of Santa Clara (CA) to forever take away our right to question our elected representatives.
PLEASE Larry & Readers (and others too) – Santa Clara Plays Fair needs your help to fight this SLAPP lawsuit. We are a grassroots group of simple citizens and do not have the deep pockets of the SF 49ers! The deal is rotten! The politics is rotten! And, they are using taxpayers’ money to sue the taxpayers!! We desparately need donations to our legal defense fund. We are fighting for our right to vote and our right to question elected officials that are now more concerned and focused on the 49ers than they are on our City!!
Please visit our website (www.santaclaraplaysfair.org) to donate … and Larry; please contact me at the provided email address. We need help to fight for our rights and not be killed off by big business and fiscal irresponsibility.
Thank you … and I hope that many people are able to help. I’d be happy to answer questions – our website has tons of information about our blight too.
