in october 2001 at the freedom summit (www.freedomsummit.com) mike ross was informed that david dorn and the pudgy blond guy who put on the "FREE Supper Club" have been for the last 4 years telling people that mike ross is a government snitch, that mike ross was either with some one secretly photographing, or that mike ross was secretly photographing people at the free supper club.
mike ross is not sure exactly what the evil acts are that david dorn and friends are acusing him of doing.
mike ross says he is not a government snitch, government informant now, nor has mike ross ever been a government snitch or informant. mike ross also say he has never photographed any one secretly at any libertarian events such as the free supper club, or the libertarian party meetings, or for that matter any body.
mike ross is angry that david dorn is attacking him. nor does mike ross know why david dorn has been attacking him for the last 4 years.
mike ross is also angry because its hard to defend your self when you dont even know what you have been accused of.
if your one of the libertarians around passing around stories that mike ross is a government snitch its your right to do so. but please also when you pass around the rumors please say that mike ross denys it. and it would be nice if you could tell what these rumors are to mike ross so he can know what he is being accused of by david dorn. email them to snail@aztec.asu.edu
i just got this from a list server and its a good example of how people should behave about this. i added the stuff in [].
but I do figure I owe it to such a person to contact them and hear them out, before I publicly blast that person as a [government snitch,] thief, a coward, and a felon, without any evidence except hearsay.Tamara Clark

if you beleive david dorn and the pudgy blond guy from the "free supper club" that mike ross is a government snitch this web page could be some evil trick by mike ross to help the government trap you.
but mike ross says he just typed up one of ricky duncan Declaration of Intent forms and hung it on the web.
mike ross also has 3 other of these "Declaration of Intent" forms on the web. one of them was stolen from mike kelskiey and the other two mike ross typed up.
Pursuant to an Act of the United States Congress signed by President Taft [21 August 1911] and a concurrent vote of the people of the Territory of Arizona [12 December 1911] in accordance with the Enabling Act [10 June 1910] (authorizing Arizona statehood) which demands that the intent of all articles and sections of the Arizona Constitution shall be in accordance with the Constitution of the United States and the principles of the Declaration of Independence;
I, ______________________________, now domiciled in the County of ________________,
State of Arizona, hereby accept, without bias, the intent of Article II,
Section 26 of the Arizona Constitution, determined by a vote of the Constitutional
Convention [25 November 1910], granting the State of Arizona no power or
authority to regulate my right to bear arms (openly or concealed), I hereby
declare my intent to exercise this right in defense of self or the state,
without the impairment of a state-issued permit. This declaration is made
public as a courtesy to all peace officers in recognition that ignorance
of these facts could jeopardize their bonds.
Mr. Chairman: Are there any objections or corrections to Section 32?
Mr. Baker: Mr. Chairman, I move to strike out all of Section 32. I never in all my life found it necessary to carry a six-shooter and I have passed through nearly all the scencs (sic) and experiences of this wild and unsettled country. Carrying arms is dangerous. It is a very dangerous thing to oneself and to one's associates and should not be permitted under any circumstances. I have seen lives lost and innocent blood spilled just through the carrying of arms, concealed weapons under one's coat or shirt. It is most dangerous and vile; a practice that should never be permitted except in times of war and never in times of peace. Think of it; carrying a six shooter or a knife or some other terrible arm of defense, and then in a moment of heated passion using that weapon. I do not believe in it and I move to strike out that section.
Mr. Webb: I second that motion for I agree with the gentleman from Maricopa that it is a pernicious thing and should not be included in this bill. I, too, in all my experiences, have never seen the time when it was necessary to carry concealed weapons except in times of Indian troubles, and have had many and varied experiences, in cow camps. I have been in many places where some might deem it necessary to come armed, but I did not, nor do I believe it necessary to do so now. We are no longer a frontier country, and if we did not need arms in the early days of pioneering in this country, we do not now, and I second the motion.
Mr. Crutchfield: I move to amend by inserting after the word "impair" in line 9, page 7, the following words: "...but the legislature shall have the right to regulate the wearing of weapons to prevent crime."
Mr. Baker: That is all right and I second the motion.
Mr. Parsons: Mr. Chairman, I move to amend by striking out all of Section 32 and substituting the following in lieu thereof: "The people shall have the right to bear arms for their safety and defense, but the legislature shall regulate the exercise of this right by law."
Mr. Feeney: I second that motion.
Mr. Chairman: The question comes up on the amendment offered
by the gentleman from Cochise, Mr. Parsons, to strike out Section 32, and
insert in lieu thereof his amendment. Those in favor of this motion answer
"aye", opposed "nay". The motion is lost.
The question now comes up on the amendment offered by Mr. Crutchfield to
insert after the word "impaired" in line 9, page 7, the
following words: "...but the legislature shall have the right to
regulate the wearing of weapons to prevent crime." Those in favor
of this motion answer "aye", opposed "nay".
The secretary will call the roll.
Roll Call showed 22 "Ayes" 23 "Nays".
Mr. Chairman: The motion is lost, and Section 32 will stand approved as read unless there are other amendments. Are there any objections to Section 33?
SECTION 32: The right of the individual citizens to bear arms in defense of himself or the state shall not be impaired, but nothing in this section shall be construed as authorizing individuals or corporations to organize, maintain, or employ an armed body of men.
