Real Patriots versus Mouth Warriors




      b




      A bit of history from Harry Bowles of Texas for real patriots. not just "mouth warriors":
      Dear Barbara:

      In 1993, myself & Ray Dittmar established "Advocates for HONEST, ETHICAL, LEGAL PRACTICE-Texas", a/k/a "HELP-Texas", as a legal reform group to fight judicial corruption in the CIVIL District courts of Harris County, Texas (Houston).  We built a membership of about 100 supporters with about 20 as very active warriors.  In the short period of two (2) years, we validated that the entire County & State judiciary was 100% corrupt.  We did all the things you espouse and much, much more.  We published pamphlets and periodicals describing in intimate detail the who, the how and the why of the corruption, we held public protests in front of the State & Federal Courts, Appellate courts, the State Bar offices, The District attorney office.  We gave speeches to various groups and networked Statewide with other reformers.  Finally in the election of 1996, we targeted the most corrupt judge, waged an election campaign against her and the voters kicked her off the bench.  As far as I know, to this day, we are the only reform group that can claim the victory of getting one lousy judge disgraced and kicked off the bench.
       
      The effort it took in human resource was considerable in terms of donated man hours.  We then put together an instructional package on how anyone, anywhere could duplicate our efforts with the same results.  We titled it "The Bureaucrat Assault Package".  To defray the cost of the printing and mailing, we advertised it for $ 19.95 in various "patriot literature".  We sold probably 50 packages nationwide, but never had one report of anyone using the package in an election.  We did receive many complaints from so called "Patriots" scolding us for asking people to pay for the package, instead of offering it free to the world.
       
      And there is the problem.  Please read your quote below, "The judicial system is broken......"
       
      Over the years we established that 99.999999999...% of the so called Patriots are what we term as "Mouth warriors".  All mouth and no fight!  One group in particular "Americans for whatever"...epitomizes the "mouth warrior" syndrome more than any.  Nationwide, we have not located any group willing to join in a pro active, united movement to fight corruption.
       
      These mouth warriors do not and will never understand that you cannot fight corruption by filing the "best paperwork" in the Court.  Their continuing naivety is truly amazing.  There is no magic bullet, and God is not on their side despite their ratings to the contrary.  The Constitutions have been reduced to toilet paper, and the culprit behind all of this mayhem is the STATE BAR OF TEXAS, or any state bar.  We put together a pamphlet describing just how the BAR works, etc. etc.  We lobbied the State Legislature (85% lawyers), and so much more.  Over the 15 years since founding of HELP-Texas, one thing did happen.
       
      There are 70,000+ licensed lawyers in Texas, the BAR unified the mainstream BAR lawyers and judges into a monolithic, impenetrable fortress and there is the lesson of how to achieve success and smite down your enemies.  It is a numbers and money game.  If you have the body count and the money you win.  Without a sizeable number of real warriors willing to put their bodies into the war, it simply cannot be done.  When giving speeches to groups, I always started with:
       
      In establishing and promoting a cause,
       
      "If you are 1 protester, you are viewed by the establishment as a nut case."
      "If you are 10 protesters, you are viewed as a terrorist group."
      "If you are 10,000 protesters, you are accepted as a legitimate organization."
       
      It is all in the numbers, and that is what no group has been able to capture, hence no chance at reform.
       
      Another book detailing the hows and whys will join the dozens if not hundreds printed over the years, all read by the mouth warriors, and nothing will happen as with all the previous books espousing the cause of reform.  Until the so called Patriots understand nothing can be achieved without body count and dedication in a unified effort, nothing will change, no reason to.
       
      HELP-Texas tried for 15 years and failed.  If you come up with a method or way to turn the rag tag mouth warrior army into a real army, let me know and I assure HELP-Texas will join the war.   
       
      Best wishes in your fight.
      HELP-Texas
