Are there any groups you won't go after?

We haven't tackled Scientology because Showtime doesn't want us to. Maybe they have deals with individual Scientologists—I'm not sure. And we haven't tackled Islam because we have families.

Meaning, you won’t attack Islam because you’re afraid it’ll attack back ...

Right, and I think the worst thing you can say about a group in a free society is that you’re afraid to talk about it—I can’t think of anything more horrific. [...]

Sic the Scientoligists on the Mohammedans;it will be a battle of savages armed with futuristic alien technology versus 7th century savages armed with 20th century weapons.

Thank you very much Squantos. The cost of defending Evan in Baghdad literally broke this family financially. I enlisted the aid of the United American Patriots and they are paying for Evan's appeal. They have been very good at seeing money donated to Evan and his cause reaches Evan and his family.

Donate in Evan's name here.

http://unitedpatriots.org/

This is the link to the Attorneys representing Evan on the Appeal. They are being paid through contributions to the UAP.

Libertarian or not, they are cowards. And anyone who attacks the Boy Scouts is ... short on reason and honor.

Agreed.

Tasha Siepert on the paypal on the freeevanvela site is Evan’s stepsister. You can rest assured every dollar sent there goes directly to Evan’s family.

Donations made to the UAP are tax deductible.
