Ord. 1840 grievance Public Comment from Nickolas RamslowFrom:nicholas ramlow To:Kalispell Meetings Public Comment Cc:Sid Daoud; bserbin@dailyinterlake.com Subject:[EXTERNAL] grievance Date:Monday, April 13, 2020 4:05:35 PM Attachments:image001.png Mayor, As you are now aware, The People of Kalispell are organizing and forming a coalition of members who’s sole objective is to defend the rights of their neighbors and to create a formal grievance of the crimes committed by their government. As a body of people, we are going to have the public policy discussion that our institutions are unwilling to have. We will ask the tough questions. We will identify the bad actors. And we, as a people, are going to decide what is best for our community. That said, I am a firm believer in redemption. We are not so far down a path that you cannot perform an about-face. Here are a couple of things that you should consider. 1. Take a hard look at anti- commandeering doctrine. https://tenthamendmentcenter.com/2018/05/23/anti-commandeering-an-overview-of- five-major-supreme-court-cases/ There is a body of case law here that would allow you to keep ‘federal’ resources (resources stolen from us) without violating the rights of The People. 2. Rather than the Tyrant King, be Robin Hood. The hospital has already been given 9M (We will deal with them and the school district separately). Allow The People to reclaim their recourses by dividing it up equally among every taxpayer with a kalispell zip code. I guarantee that this will pay dividends, not just in their forgiveness but in their willingness to contribute to things that the city might need in the future. 3. Grant our younger generation the opportunity to be HERO’s. Our older generation is the most likely to be adversely affected by the virus. Call upon our younger generation to go out into the world with courage and bravery, to develop the heard immunity that is necessary to defeat this and to fill gaps in our work force where elders might leave void. You can speed this up by suspending any minimum wage laws during the emergency. 4. Proclaim to The People that the city will treat the Governors order with nullity, that they are free to assemble and that any attempt to classify them as “essential” or “non- essential” is a violation of Montana Constitution Art. 2 Sec. 4 - Equal Protections Clause God Speed, Nicholas Ramlow
