We recognize this is slightly dated, but still believe there is a need to set the record straight. On June 20, 2012, the Daily Jefferson County Union published an article by Kevin Murphy entitled, “No added prison for Fort man“. This article reports on a Fort Atkinson man who was on probation for possession of an explosive device and recently charged/convicted of being a felon in possession of a firearm. In the article (attached), the Rock River Patriots are mentioned because this individual supposedly attended one of our meetings. Is this a deliberate attempt to smear the RRP using a classic “guilt by association” tactic? We think it may be just that. As anyone who attends our meetings can tell you, they are all open to the public. Many people have come and gone since the group formed several years ago. We have a core group of regular attendees and many others who attend sporadically. None of the leaders in the RRP recognize this person. The RRP were never contacted by the writer of this story for comment either. The article also indicates that the judge told the defendant to avoid groups with “nothing positive to offer” with the implication…

ATTENTION…Due to the Memorial Day Holiday, there will be NO Rock River Patriots Meeting this Friday May 25th. Many of our members will be out of town on for the holiday weekend. We pray everyone has a enjoyable and safe weekend. We will resume our normal meetings again in June. On June 8th, we will discuss the election results, and view the documentary by the 10th Amendment Center, “Nullification”. On June 22nd, we plan on welcoming back “J.C.” to conclude his presentation on Islam. If you missed the first session, come to this one. We will review the first presentation briefly, and the continue on with new material. Other Upcoming Events…This does not constitute an endorsement of any candidate. The Jefferson Chamber of Commerce, in conjunction with the Daily Jefferson County Union and WFAW are co-hosting a candidates forum for the June 5th Recall Election for the State Senate District 13 seat. The forum will be held in the Jefferson High School Gym on Wednesday May 23rd at 7:00 p.m. Candidates will be allowed three minutes for opening remarks and three minutes for closing remarks.

Thank You Senator Fitzgerald And All Of Our Guests
We want to take this opportunity to thank Senator Scott Fitzgerald for taking some time to speak with us at our past meeting. We know that with all the events of this past year, things have been very hectic. With the recent recall elections and changes in the State Senate, Senator Fitzgerald has been very busy. I think it is safe to say, we all learned something new. We offer a special thank you to all of our new guests for coming. We hope to see you back at our next meeting. Below are a few photos from the meeting. [slideshow]

Patriots Meeting This Friday May 13th and The Republican Game
CONFIRMATION: The meeting this Friday May 13th will be held at the Dwight Foster Library in Fort Atkinson located at 209 Merchants Avenue at 6pm. It will be an interesting meeting! CONSTITUTIONAL CARRY UPDATE – THE REPUBLICAN GAME…I have just been informed that Constitutional Carry is a DEAD ISSUE. It will NEVER be introduced in the Assembly and there will be NO VOTE in the Senate no matter what we do. Our two other leaders from RRP were in Madison today at the Capitol and got the word directly. THIS IS A DISGRACE! The Republican Leadership has been stringing us along on this bill and had no intention of ever allowing it to happen. After all the work the TEA Party / Patriot / 2nd Amendment groups have done, this is how we are treated? We are not even being given the opportunity for the bill to be debated on the floor in the Senate or Assembly! It is time to call your representative and the leadership in the Assembly and Senate and express how DISGUSTED you are. VOTER ID UPDATE: REAL ID is still in the bill that they will be voting on tomorrow.
