TOPIC: US Supreme Court Dirty Dozen Case Study #8: Korematsu v. US (1944)
In which the US Supreme Court, in a 6-3 decision, ruled that American citizens can be imprisoned in concentration camps without Due Process (charges, trial, benefit of counsel, appeal) by military necessity - thereby violating their Fifth Amendment constitutional rights.
Followed immediately by a very Special Guest Speaker, Mr. Tamio "Tom" Suyama, an internee in a Japanese-American camp in Idaho and a veteran of WWII who served in Company A of the 522nd Field Artillery Battalion of the famed 442nd "Go For Broke" Regimental Combat Team composed of "Nisei" Japanese-American soldiers. This unit has the distinction of being the most decorated unit in American military history.

Findings of Court Cases Related to Article V of the United States Constitution
John Doe II Rumors and Speculation
It has come to our attention that there is some speculation that the Wisconsin GrandSons of Liberty are or may have been a target of the John Doe II probe into Governor Walker and/or those conservative organizations that allegedly supported Gov. Walker in the 2012 recall election. Let us state for the record that we are not aware of any investigation into our group. To the best of our knowledge, we have NOT been subpoenaed, contacted, raided or questioned by any law enforcement or prosecutorial agency.
The only time that we have been approached in relation to this issue was in late November of 2013 when reporters from the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel contacted us and informed us that they had an anonymous source who claimed that we were the target of the John Doe investigation. The reporters stated that the investigation was purportedly due to our Verify The Recall project in partnership with We The People Of The Republic and True the Vote. The J-S asked us to confirm the rumor – we could not confirm as we had not been contacted by anyone prior and the J-S query was the first that we had heard of such a rumor.
Wisconsin GrandSons of Liberty does not endorse candidates, nor do we, as an organization, work for their election or defeat. We engage in issue advocacy and not express advocacy.
The Wisconsin GrandSons of Liberty are not surprised by such rumors, however, we are amused.
How Wisconsin Lost healthcare Freedom
With a Special Session of the Wisconsin Legislature called to address the new healthcare needs generated by a failed aspect of the PPACA (Obamacare), this would be a good time to review mistakes made by the legislature and plan how to avoid new ones.

Gov. Walker Should Approve the Kenosha Casino
Franklin – Wisconsin GrandSons of Liberty calls on Governor Walker to approve the Kenosha Casino on the grounds that failing to do so permits a monopoly by one casino operator in southeastern Wisconsin.
The Menomonee Indian’s proposed hotel, casino, and entertainment venue would surpass the total number of jobs already in place at the areas sole downtown Milwaukee casino plus it offers another world class entertainment destination for the area. Southeastern Wisconsin
already has many warm weather venues with county
fairs, Summerfest, cultural festivals, and the like. This Menomonee
Casino promises to add a year round aspect to the great variety
of entertainment options for the southeastern Wisconsin area.
In the spirit of anti-monopolistic competition and in the quest to create more job opportunities in Wisconsin, Governor
Walker should approve the proposed casino which already gathered
immense community support as plainly demonstrated by the public
referendum approved by the Kenosha area voters.
Gov. Walker, it is time to unleash healthy competition in southeast Wisconsin’s casino entertainment industry.
