Good Afternoon,
No one is, we have set this up through independent sources. Bob Robideau is not only LP's co-defendant but his cousin. He will be speaking on the injustices surrounding the events that took place on the reservation and how this erupted into the infamous shoot out with the FBI. He served 10 years for transporting firearms after being found Not Guilty by reason of self defense for the murders of the 2 FBI. It will be an excellent talk. Hope you will share this information with many so he will have a standing room only audience. We are hopeful for a good turn out.

Raffle tickets are now on sale for LP's prints. We have decided to sell them in advance and at the door so everyone interested will have a chance to win. You do not need to be present to win, I will personally mail the contents to the winner if they are infact absent on the night of the drawing. All interested may contact: saoirsebhoy@hotmail.com tiny_sniper32@hotmail.com Arachne156@aol.com Here are copies of the actual prints to be raffled.     |

Hello Redflag, I am not sure, I believe we have the hall for a couple of hours. Tell your friend that something will be taking place in Belfast on the 12 of May and in Derry on the 13. I will be posting times and locations probably at the beginning of next week.  |
