As many of you know, the Rock River Patriots have been one of the Patriot / TEA Party groups that have been targeted by the IRS while pursuing tax exempt status.  Because of what we believe are criminal actions by this Federal agency, we have withdrawn our application after being asked to produce substantially more information and documentation more than a year after submitting our application.  We had neither the time or ability to produce the vast amount of information requested. Below are the scans of our correspondence with the IRS, including the RRP letter to the IRS indicating the we wish to withdraw our application. RRP Response to the IRS

The Rock River Patriots will be having a meeting this Friday July 12th at 6:00pm in Fort Atkinson at the Dwight Foster Library located at 209 Merchants Avenue. At this meeting, we will discuss current events and initiatives.  Media Trackers will be back to provide us with a presentation on effective research techniques. Hope to see you all there!  

Listed below is The Declaration of Independence.  I encourage you to read it this July 4th and consider the list of abuses by the King at the time of the drafting.  How many of these same abuses do we see by our government today? What are you going to do about it? Two other articles to read this Independence Day:  A Tribute To America’s Patriot Pastors And Stalwart Statesmen , “Our Lives, Our Fortunes, Our Sacred Honor”   The Declaration of Independence   IN CONGRESS, JULY 4, 1776 The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America hen in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

The Rock River Patriots will be having a meeting this Friday June 14th at 6:00pm in Fort Atkinson at the Dwight Foster Library.  The Dwight Foster Library is located at 209 Merchants Avenue in Fort Atkinson. At this meeting, we will receive an update on the WI budget process from Rep. Steve Nass.  We will also discuss the recent “Big Brother Government Spying” revelations that have come to light and hear the story of one whistle-blower on this issue. The RRP have continually spoke out against the Patriot Act and the Federal Gov’t spying on American citizens without a warrant.  In light of all the recent scandals and abuses of power, why would we trust them to do the right thing.  Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.  Instead, we need to bind the government down by the chains of the Constitution”, as one of our Founding Fathers had said.  The government’s primary function is to protect our freedom and keep us free, not to provide “cradle to the grave” security.  When government keeps us free and protects our liberty, we are made safer.  However, when government assumes ultimate power and authority in order to protect us, they will ultimately…

We would like to welcome Loren Spivack “The Free Market Warrior” was born and raised in Massachusetts and spent most of his adult life in New York City. Before becoming active in politics, Spivack worked for several non-profits and as a management consultant for both profit and non-profit companies. Spivack founded “Free Market Warrior” in 2009 in an effort to make a positive difference in American politics and economics. He was expelled from Concord Mills Mall in North Carolina in July of 2009 for selling material critical of the Obama Administration.  (Mall owners, Simon Property Group, are major Democratic donors.) Since then Loren has devoted his time to teaching conservative groups about free market economics. He conducts “Economic Literacy” seminars across the United States.

From the Freedom Files Guns and the president Published on Jan 24, 2013 By Judge Andrew P. Napolitano Published January 24, 2013 FoxNews.com Here is an uncomfortable pop quiz: Who has killed more children, Adam Lanza or Barack Obama? We’ll hold off on the answer for a few paragraphs while we look at the state of governmental excess — including killing — in America. But you can probably guess the correct answer from the manner in which I have posed the question. We all know that the sheet anchor of our liberties is the Declaration of Independence. The president himself quoted Thomas Jefferson’s most famous line in his inaugural address earlier this week. He recognized that all men and women are created equal and endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights and that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. The president would no doubt like to modify the word “created” to read “shall be maintained,” since his presidency seems dedicated to keeping us equal, not in terms of equality of rights and opportunity but of outcome. He has dedicated himself to using the coercive power of the federal government to take from those who have…
