Dear Candidate for Board of Supervisors,
Please answer the below question by Thursday, May 17, 2012, 5 PM, at which time we will forward your comments to the media. Please use less than 300 words.
The
Copper Gazette and the PineTree have promised to print your
reply verbatim. In addition, we will share your reply with all media,
our members and our list of community leaders.
Question:
What is your opinion on the attached proposed county resolution to expose UN Agenda 21?
Thank you for your public service. - Al
Response from Tom Tryon:
"__I
am strongly opposed to agenda 21 and to your proposed resolution. The
spirit of agenda 21 is incorporated in much of state law. Your
resolution would deny the county the ability to apply for planning and
department of transportation grants. The county has applied for a Cal
Trans grant for the copper community plan update. Also to have a
legally defensible general plan, the county will need to incorporate
some agenda 21 principles in the updated general plan per state law.
Please, no more questions on agenda 21. Let us discuss issues over
which the county has discretion. Tom"
Response from Joe Kelley:
"I
agree and support the resolution to expose UN Agenda 21. UN Agenda 21
is not ratified by the United States of America. I believe UN Agenda 21
is a subversion of the Constitution of the United States of
America. UN Agenda 21 continues to infiltrate all government, the June
9, 2011 Executive Order 13575 reads in part: Strong, sustainable rural
communities are essential to winning the future and ensuring American
competitiveness in the years ahead. The Executive Order reference
"sustainable rural communities," which is a reference to "sustainable
development" the nomenclature for the United Nations Agenda 21 program
What is sustainable development in the United Nations Agenda 21
program? It calls for government to curtail and even eliminate your
freedom to travel as you please, own a gas-powered car, live in a
suburban or rural areas, determine the number of children you may have,
determine the "rates of harvest" of farms and fisheries, eliminate your
private property rights through eminent domain, and increase the price
on goods and services through artificial shortages and new consumer
taxes. Does that sound familiar? In Calaveras County, we were given
Delphi Technique strategies for the General Plan's land use. The people
were given 3 options with the same outcome, the implementation of UN
Agenda 21 strategies of giving up our Constitutional rights. The latest
UN Agenda 21 tentacles issue was the approval of the
Toulumne-Stanislaus Integrated Regional Water Management Plan (IRWMP).
Only Supervisor Spellman voted "NO".
I recommend reading Undermining Freedom in Calaveras County by Tonja Dausend, published by the Calaveras County Taxpayers Association.
My suggestions to Calaveras County Government:
Remove UN Agenda 21 strategies from the General Plan & Elements.
Respect liberty, property rights and Constitutional law.
Stop the subversion of the Constitutions (U.S.A. & California)
Elected representatives and government employees respect the "Oath of Office", SUPPORT AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION! "
Response from Bryce Randall:
"The
first time I heard anything about U.N. Agenda 21 was while attending a
Calaveras County Board of Supervisor's meeting when it was brought to
the attention of the Board by the CCTA. Because I had no knowledge of
the U.N. agenda, or it's contents, it didn't make any sense to me, but I
thought if it was important enough to CCTA to bring it up in a meeting,
then I should do some investigating of my own. I began to do some
research and then while attending my first Tea Party meeting it was
again addressed. I don't think most people know anything about it or
that a U.N. resolution has anything to do with us locally. Some people
belong to local well meaning groups, without understanding the
connection that is there, if only in common, good intentioned goals.
We may not have people from the U.N. running around our county but
the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives
(I.C.L.E.I.) has been as close as next door in Amador County. The
wording used by U.N. Agenda 21 and I.C.L.E.I. is also used by groups
here in our county.
I would encourage everyone to do their own research and form their
own opinion. In my opinion, if the goals of U.N. Agenda 21 are to
subvert our personal rights and freedoms through local, regional or
global manipulation, in any form, then it needs to be stopped.
I would support the passing of the proposed county resolution. We
should not be afraid to take a stand against any intrusion to our rights
as American Citizens.
Bryce Randall
Candidate District 2 Supervisor"
