Florida Servicemen must get respect, Florida's Capital City MUST GIVE IT TO THEM- HELP US!!!!

We have sent out a number of e-mails requesting citizens from all states be made aware of the shoddy treatment received by soldiers/veterans in the capital city of Florida and help us set things straight.

Below is the letter we have sent this time this date. Within it contains links that lead to other links that describe our ongoing battle with Tallahassee officials and requests that they set the record straight. They will not, they refuse, they blame each other and they flip flop.

Thank God our soldiers act with more honor than the officials we elect to represent us. Imagine if you would, Imagine if our soldiers acted with the same integrity of our public officials.  Feel free to use any or all of the letter below. With the address's. NO SURRENDER, NO COMPROMISE, NO RETREAT

Honorable Governor Christ, After watching you send off the 779th we realized that you  may not be aware of the treatment our servicemen are getting here in the Capital City.  That the treatment received by the 779th may have just been a show put on by the Tallahassee Police Department for your honor. We have been working for a number of years now trying to get the Capital City to give the same respect to veterans given by Florida Communities and equal the respect the capital city gives to football players and on one occasion at least, a horse.

The Following links should make you aware of the current situation.

Marianna-PGR sends off 144th and we say bullshit to Capital of Florida and it's Lt. Governor, what wasn't reported

Tallahassee, Florida a State Capital where patriotism is dead.

It's shame we have yet to see a site such as this in Tallahassee.

We have written the Tallahassee Police Chief and The Leon County Sheriff.  Both of whom have said they would provide escorts and then flip flopped.  You got an escort for the 779th. The 144th got an escort from Marianna to the Leon County line at which time the officer had to turn of his lights and motorcyclists had to take on the duties law enforcement should have assumed and does in most other Florida Counties.

You should also be aware that we have witnessed Alabama Troopers escorting football players through red lights in downtown Tallahassee. Yet a Florida officer escorting Florida servicemen must turn his lights off??? 

Where is the respect in THE action of that sir?  Where is the honor in that type of action or lack of action.

I am writing this in the hopes that you are not aware of this situation and that being made aware you will help to rectify what should have never been allowed to happen even once.

The Lt. Governor said he would look into this for us and get back to us. Since he did not ask how to contact us we felt we should write.

Will be forwarding this to everyone we can think of and posting on Bigbendbikersforfreedom.comhttp://www.bigbendbikersforfreedom.com/

We humbly await your response.

With respect
