Stop the Kangaroo Court Travesty!

Governor Owens:
INTERVENE ON RICK STANLEY'S BEHALF. DO IT NOW! DO IT EFFECTIVELY!
I assume the facts stated in the email below are accurate because I
know
the author and he enjoys credibility with me.
The phrase "kangaroo court travesty!" is appropriate regarding how
government's serpents in your state have grossly abused Mr. Rick
Stanley
under color of law.
I am a self-made expert on the Second Amendment, a 32 year member in
good standing with the State Bar of California and an ex-criminal
prosecutor.
Arising from this travesty, Colorado has become the functional
equivalent of a cartoon or a comedy, except, from Stanley's view,
from mine,
and from thousands of others who have been monitoring this situation,
in the
real world this situation is a tragedy and a farce. It has turned
into a tar
paper trap for Colorado and all government officials who attempt to
prosecute and/or punish Stanley and/or who turn their backs on him.
Stanley had an absolute right to exercise his Second Amendment rights
with legal immunity as long as he did so responsibly, which he did.
Do your sworn duty to uphold the Constitutional Rule of Law by
respecting his rights. Intervene on his behalf now.
Sincerely,
--Peter Mancus

An open letter to Colorado Governor Owens:
After Governor Owens signed a law which made it lawful to openly
carry a
sidearm, a Colorado businessman and constitutional activist, Rick
Stanley,
was arrested and subsequently convicted and jailed for peacefully and
lawfully wearing a sidearm in Denver and Thornton, Colorado.
He broke no law. The people of Colorado are greatly alarmed by this
blatant
disregard for law by the courts in Denver and Thornton..
Stanley was exercising a right that all Americans have, and that
right is
acknowledged and protected by the Bill of Rights, the Colorado
Constitution,
and SB-25, the law which Governor Owens signed into law.
Rick Stanley should never have been jailed. He legally exercised his
protected rights, because the cities of Denver and Thornton were
unlawfully
pursuing policies in opposition to the law. After serving 102 days in
jail,
Rick Stanley now faces up to 32 years in prison, which will make him
a
victim of a kangaroo court
Governor Owens should intervene in the Rick Stanley case immediately,
and
demand that all charges against him be dropped. What happens to
Stanley
could happen to anyone < especially to anyone who has read the
Constitution
and exercises inalienable rights thereunder. It is long past time for
the
People to let their elected and appointed servants understand that it
is the
People, not the servants who are the masters.
