Lawless America

Bill Windsor has been mentioned in WWW before (here and here) in connection with his role in exposing the sleaze and corruption at the Niagara (Ontario) Parks Commission, particularly in connection with a sweetheart deal on the Maid of the Mist tour boat facility.

That deal was set aside through the efforts of Mr. Windsor, a whistle-blowing commissioner by the name of Bob Gale, and a citizens action group called Preserve Our Parks. But "Mr. Bill" wasn't a one-trick pony. The corruption and disregard of the public weal at NPC -- and its counterpart on the US side of the river -- is just one example, he feels, of a culture of corruption and lawlessness which infects America's government and judiciary at every level in virtually every state.

So, being an American who believes in speaking out (unlike your typically timid Canuck) Mr. Windsor has started a campaign. It's called Lawless America, and here's the link.

What's Lawless America doing to fight corruption? Making a movie exposé, for one thing -- funding permitting. And there's an online petition you can sign, if you support honesty in government and the rights you were granted under the American Constitution and Bill of Rights. Such as the right to speak out in public. And the right to petition for redress!

Lawless America is worth checking out. There's no partisan agenda, as nearly as I can tell. Mr. Bill's attitude seems to be "a pox on all their houses". I can relate to that!
