The Entire Legal System Is Repugnant to The Constitution
Why are the cases against Trump falling apart one by one? Because they are unlawful.
The difference is as simple as this: Legal pertains to rules, codes, and statutes. Lawful is what falls under the Declaration of Independence, The Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. “Legal” overshadows God’s law and our rights. It’s been made VERY CLEAR that our rights come from God. [more…]
7:35 Medford 549C school board member michael Williams joins me to discuss the controversy of the South Medford School Resource Officer being reassigned. Williams believes this was in response to the officer telling Williams the truth about violence in the Medford 549C district. (I think “Restorative Justice” plays a role in the policy.)
8:10 Mr. X, Community Researcher with a discussion on Restorative Justice and how it is affecting our public schools. You must make meaningful public comments to the school board DEMANDING that Restorative Justice programs be removed from 549C and other schools. It doesn’t work and leaves students at risk.The following contains links to Restorative Justice programs in Oregon, the Department of Education, how it was brought into existence. Everything which Ed and I referenced follows.
Restorative Justice was brought into Medford 549C in the Mid-2000’s or so as a policy. Essentially it’s non-punishment “Punishment”. Bottom line where we start is how the people were not informed:

ORS 192.620
Policy
The Oregon form of government requires an informed public aware of the deliberations and decisions of governing bodies and the information upon which such decisions were made. It is the intent of ORS 192.610 (Definitions for ORS 192.610 to 192.690) to 192.690 (Exceptions to ORS 192.610 to 192.690) that decisions of governing bodies be arrived at openly. [1973 c.172 §1]

Following are some examples of how costs have been
shared in collaboration with Restorative Justice for Oakland
Youth (RJOY). RJOY successfully reached out to commu-
nities outside of Oakland to expand Restorative Justice
training opportunities in the area and to share costs among
regional Restorative Justice efforts. Developing positive
relationships with these communities and agencies has
played a large part.
Sonoma County, north of Oakland, had been
using Restorative Justice processes prior to RJOY’s
existence. Jessalyn Nash, the former Director of
Restorative Resources and a leader of the work in
Sonoma County, was able to train Oakland resi-
dents on Family Group Conferencing at RJOY’s
annual training event in December 2007.
Residents in Medford, Oregon, a full day’s drive
north of Oakland, began collaborating with RJOY
after Rita attended a presentation by Howard Zehr
in Medford. After meeting and talking to people
working in the schools, Rita, who was working for
RJOY at the time, invited Medford and Cloverdale to
collaborate and share costs to bring Kay Pranis, an
experienced trainer and practitioner to the region.
This collaboration continues as stories and experi-
ences are often shared ”

“It may be that it is easier to focus on restorative because it’s the nice value stuff but it’s harder to focus on justice because that may start to involve power issues. And it might get personal: where do we personally hold power and privilege, and how does justice and injustice show up in our own lives? That’s harder to confront than, “How am I being restorative?”
If justice is about bringing fairness and right relationships into being, it often means that we have to give things up. We have to give up privilege to bring justice into situations. Many of us leading the restorative justice movement are privileged. What about our own place in all this? Where might we be ignoring the justice issues in our own lives?”

7:30 Jackson County Commissioner Colleen Roberts , just back from National Association of Counties. We discuss how Jackson County’s smoke policy (full suppression on fires of any origin when in fire season) is now a part of national county policy. Here’s a note from the Commissioner:
So delighted to report that the long-standing NACo resolution Regarding Wildland Fire Regulations and Policies (2019-2023) has been unanimously accepted as a NACo platform. Resolutions have to be renewed annually, and I have been the sole sponsor of this resolution at NACo; however, a Platform is a longstanding position at NACO and for our lobbying efforts at the national level. This will be so very valuable and foundational moving forward as we look forward to a new Administration in 2025. The next step will be to amend the 1995 Federal Wildland Fire Policy either through legislation or at the agency level.
The Wildfire/Policy Platform addresses the flawed 1995 Federal Wildland Fire Policy. The Federal agencies have adopted these regulations, policies and guidelines that allow lightning-caused fires to burn,( as well as any source of ignition), to burn in conjunction with prescribed fire plans for the purpose of attaining land management goals.
Our Board continues to battle the potential effects of this flawed policy locally, as well, through Coordination with our Federal land managers.
8:10 Dr. Dennis Powers, Retired Professor of Business Law from Southern Oregon University with today’s “Where Past Meets Present”. WWW.DennisPowersBooks.com
James Collier, the Patron of the Performing Arts
By Dennis Powers
Born in 1938, James (Jim) Morrison Collier grew up in Des Moines, Iowa; he earned a B.A. degree in English from the University of Iowa and an M.A. in English Education from Drake University (1970). Jim taught English in Wisconsin and California during his 35-year career, including 20 years at alternative high schools for troubled youths. Considered a kind and gentle man, he took on the role of a philanthropist after inheriting what was called a “significant” amount of money from his mother and stepfather, Mary and Raymond Baker.
Raymond Baker met Pioneer Hi-Bred founder Henry Wallace in 1926. Fascinated by Wallace’s work with corn hybrids, Baker two years later became Hi-Bred’s second employee. As Pioneer Hi-Bred’s lead plant-breeder for 43 years, Raymond Baker developed many of the company’s hybrid seed corns and helped bring it to becoming the world’s largest seed-corn company. He retired in 1971 as a Vice President and died in 1999 at age 92. DuPont bought for cash and stock the remaining 80% of Pioneer Hi-Bred in 1999 that it didn’t already own.
In the early 2000s, Jim Collier made “generous” gifts to the Des Moines Opera, Drake University, Des Moines Symphony, and Roosevelt High School (his high school). He donated Steinway pianos, funded scholarships, endowed care for the elderly, and funded an Apprentice Artist program with the Des Moines Opera. For his donations to Drake, he was nominated in 2006 as the Outstanding Philanthropist of Central Iowa.
As his Master’s thesis was written on Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar–and with his deep interest in classical music and the performing arts–it was natural for him to be drawn to the Oregon Shakespeare Festival (“OSF”) and this area. After his retirement from teaching, Collier in April 2003 moved to the Rogue Valley Manor in Medford; once settling here, he became a major benefactor of the arts.
Jim Collier was the driving financial force with the building of the new Camelot Theatre with a “substantial but undisclosed” series of gifts; in appreciation, the Camelot’s new 164-seat facility was named the James Morrison Collier Theatre. On opening night in June 2011, he dressed as a king and made an entrance to say, “Long live Camelot!” to the audience.
The Craterian was next. In August 2012, the long-time Craterian Theater supporter gave it a “very substantial,” but also undisclosed amount of money. In appreciation, the board renamed it as the “Craterian Theater at The Collier Center for the Performing Arts.” A few years later, the Holly Theatre restoration project released the news in 2016 that he had made a “substantial gift in the six figures” to pay for an elevator at the historic Holly Theatre.
Jim Collier frequently underwrote programs at the Rogue Valley Symphony, Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Youth Symphony of Southern Oregon, Britt Festivals, Rogue Valley Chorale, Siskiyou Violins, Southern Oregon Repertory Singers, and numerous others; these supported groups play throughout the region, including at the Collier Center, SOU’s Music Recital Hall, the OSF, and the Collier Theatre (Camelot). Affectionately known as “the Piano Man,” he also donated 18-plus grand and upright pianos over time to organizations here and in Iowa.
The Executive Director of the Craterian at its re-naming was quoted: “I’m not sure who he isn’t supporting.” And Southern Oregon is so much the better for this.
Philanthropist James “Jim” M. Collier, who continually supported and promoted the performing arts as a patron of all in Jackson County, died Thursday, August 24, 2023, at age 85.
