All for One and None for All...

I got the following reply from Chief Ken Swindle about a news report that his department donated $1,000 to the All for One Tuscaloosa "gun buyback":
We agreed to help pay for weapons if they bought more than the $500.00 that they had to purchase guns. They only bought nine so we did not give them any money. There was no money given so that answers you next two questions.

The money that I had offered to use was donated to the Department to be use in a safe neighborhood project. It was not affiliated with any Federal program.

So the "report" from the "authorized journalist" was factually in error. Funny how he couldn't be bothered to dig any deeper into his own story.

    Typical.

    I was once labled as a backup generator in a newspaper article.

    I've thought about including this as a reference on my resume.

    Keep up the heat David. Exposure of their deceit, and showing the facts. Is the surest way to win our objective peacefully. We all know what the alternative is.....
