Clarification on Training Meeeting

In answer to Ron Trowbridge’s letter and an attempt to clarify the meaning. More questions… To attempt to summarize this shortly: There are pockets of groups out there that do use the word Christian in their titles that are not particularly complimentary to the Christian faith, who have shot and killed troopers. Bottom line. The extremist go beyond the generalized descriptions of Christians, into a much deeper definition. They do not follow the rule of law as written. Unfortunately this truth bears witness, even with this story. Since the release of this story, State Patrol “troopers” from across the state read more…

Undersheriff Ron Trowbridge Speaks out

I recently received a letter from one of law enforcement’s finest. He had attended a seminar in which he was told to be on the lookout for Christians. The letter was written by an attendee, Ron Trowbridge, Undersheriff in Prowers County, Colorado. I would like to thank Sheriff Trowbridge for the letter and the 25 years he has spent protecting the public in his county. Fear of reprisals from either the Colorado State Police and Homeland Security, fail to stop this patriot from exposing what our law officers are being subjected to. Because of his bravery, we are able to read more…

She said, “Yes.” He asked if she was always in before curfew. She said, “Yes, or Mom knows where I am.” He looked at the mom and said, “You approve Mom?” She said, “Yes.” He read more…

Agenda 21 and how it effects YOU.

So just because something does not carry the Agenda 21 label does not mean that it is not promoting the goals of Agenda 21. The goals of Agenda 21 are not only being implemented in the United States. This is a massive worldwide effort that is being coordinated by the United Nations. An article that was posted on RedState.com discussed some of the history of Agenda 21… In simplified terms, Agenda 21 is a master blueprint, or guidelines, for constructing “sustainable” communities. Agenda 21 was put forth by the UN’s Commission on Sustainable Development, and was adopted by over 200 read more…

Falsely Accused

When Kim Piner listed *horse tack* for sale on a local Facebook page, she didn’t expect to have a visit from the local Sheriff department, or to be accused of selling stolen goods. Lifetime citizens of Prowers County, Kim and Alden Piner have a solid law-abiding record of good citizenship. Selling stolen goods online would never have occurred to them, because they’d never steal. But that didn’t matter when large numbers of Deputies from both the Prowers County and Bent County Sheriff’s Offices knocked on their door December 6th, 2012. The neighbors might have thought it a bit odd, to read more…
