David and April Hilton Sykes, Publisher Letters To Concerns voiced To the editor: The Citizens for Constitu tional Cities has recently received some publicity on television (channels Sand 12 on March 17. 1982. 1 would like, therefore, to take this oppor tunity to state the purpose of our organization more fully. The Citizens for Constitu tional Cities is a group of concerned county and state citizens headquartered in The Dalles. Oregon. Our purpose is to be the legal watchdog for county citizens directly affect ed by the Rajneesh organiza tion and the citizens of Oregon indirectly affected by this religious cult group. We are very concerned about recent developments in Antelope. Oregon and the methods used by the Rajneesh organization. We intend to monitor the activities of the Rajneesh organization and protect the legal rights of the citizens of Antelope. Wasco County and the State of Oregon under our constitution and the statutes of this state. We are very concerned about the intentions of the Rajneesh organization when. at every legal and social confrontation, they reduce all arguments to the simplistic basis of religious discrimina tion rather than answering specific questions in regard to their actions. We are concern ed alxiut the formation and-or purchase of a city to obtain tax funds for the recruitment of members and the support of its facilities. We are also worried about the long-term precedent of this type encour aging every other "New religion'" or paramilitary or ganization to purchase land and organize other cult cities throughout the state of Ore gon. We hope that you agree with these concerns and will sup port us. Sincerely. Roger Thompson. Vice President Citizens for Constitutional Cities Take time to look To the editor: I think we should take time now ti iook at a couple of countries in this world, one called Poland, one called Afghanistan. The major difference in these two countries is that the Polish people were taken over by communist rule long ago. At that time, they lost their right to freedom and their right to keep and bear arms. These two rights are insepar able - lose one and you will always lose the other. We are born with these rights to be free and to protect our families. When we allow some force to take them away from us. we become slaves. This happened to the Polish people long ago. I don't know why now. the Polish people thought they could demand more freedom without any means to enforce it. I suppose we all love freedom so much that we will try almost anything, even without a chance, to attain it. 'I the '-Russian Bear" had to uo was bring out their guns and the fight for freedom was over because the Polish people had no guns. Now in Afghanistan, it is a different story. That country The Editor was not under communist rule. They had freedom and their right to keep and bear arms. In marched the "Rus sian Bear" with all its might, tanks, big guns, fighter planes and helicopters plus lOO.ooo troops. Still, they were not able to take over this small country where the people, were armed. The Afghans have already killed over 8.000 communist troops and the Russians are sending in thous ands more to replace them. Now. I hope you can see from the example above, why our founding fathers put the Second Amendment, which guarantees "the right of the people to keep and bear arms" in the United States Constitu tion. They didn't do it so we could hunt, have target pract ice or to control crime. They did it so that no force from inside or outside our country could take us over and enslave our people like 'what has happened in Poland. Sincerely. David E. Jones 1315 N. 1st Hermiston.
