 Meth at the Democrat Convention!!!!!!!

Earlier Monday, CBS4 News reported that at least three people had been arrested in connection with a possible plot to kill Obama at his Thursday night acceptance speech at Invesco Field at Mile High.

Aurora police had arrested a suspected drunken driver at 1:30 a.m. Sunday during a routine traffic stop. The man was seen "weaving," sources said.

Aurora police seized weapons and drugs, which included methamphetamine, from the suspect's rental pickup

Senator Obama cosponsored the Combat Meth Act, which provides more money for fighting methamphetamine (meth), tightens controls on the sale of meth ingredients, and provides assistance to the children of meth abusers. The legislation would limit access to cold medicines containing pseudoephedrine, the primary ingredient used to make methamphetamine. This bill passed the Senate and became law in the 109th Congress.

Lynn,

The Apache County Drug-Free Alliance gave your posters away this summer at two difference drug conference held on the Navajo Nation.  They were very well received by conference participants and we look forward to ordering more meth prevention posters in the future.  It’s great to have access to culturally appropriate drug awareness materials. Thanks for working with us.

Greetings Lynn. The posters were awesome! The students were really pleased with them. The principal and staff were also pleased with them. Doug and I hung the posters out and around the school. They were really done nicely. Thanks. We plan on buying some more for the next school year, most likely in August your friend

To Whom It May Concern:
I recently had occasion to purchase some anti-meth posters from Lyndon Hart.  I was very pleased with the message the posters convey.
Mr. Hart is a member of the Dakota Sioux nation and is a very dedicated and committed individual in the education of the Native American youth regarding the dangers of substance abuse.
Substance abuse is non-discriminatory.  It impacts all ethnic and socio-economic groups.  It has reached epidemic proportions in this country.  These posters should be available to all youth.
The posters have generated a very positive response in New Mexico. I personally, have distributed the posters to several Lodges and agencies that deal with young people. The Native-American community is excited that these posters are available as another form of awareness for their people.  I am happy to report that I have received numerous requests from pueblo personnel for them.
I strongly recommend that all Elks Lodges are aware of these posters and are available for purchase.
Sincerely,
Max Otero, Chairman

Hello! I'm a former state-certified chemical dependency counselor, Ive been helping Lynn with his project. I knows the effects of meth first-hand — My daughter is a recovering addict. In making posters and starting projects specifically relevant to Indian Country might help the battle against meth. “It’s not going to be a cure-all, “(but we need to use) whatever Indian people can identify with.”

I want to express my gratitude for the tremendous campaign against Meth that you and No Xcuses None! have begun. Your help in this battle should spur on others in this challenging but crucial cause. Throughout Indian Country, meth has taken a devastating toll on the lives of meth users, their families, and friends.
I am convinced that the No Xcuses None! is making a real difference in the lives of our people. By turning the tide in the battle against meth, you are helping spread peace and long life throughout Indian Country.

All the best to you,

About the owner:
Lynn “Sota” Hart was born to a Yankton Sioux mother and Black father.  He was placed in a foster home at 3 days old then adopted  at age 13.  After graduation from high school, he joined the U.S. Marines.  While in the Marines, he took up rodeo bull riding as a hobby. After his honorable discharge, he was determined to be a “Professional cowboy.” He then became a ranch hand, rodeo bullfighter in the PRCA,AIRA and the Bill Pickett rodeo associations,he appeared in two movies, HBO’s “The Cherokee Kid”  with Sinbad and Burt Reynolds, and TNT’s “Buffalo Soldier” with Danny Glover as a stuntman and just finished portraying "York" Captain Clark's slave with the national re-enactment of the Lewis and Clark expedition 2004-2007. In 1990, South Dakota was one of four states in the union that had not voted Martin Luther King's birthday as a national holiday. When he learned of a hearing scheduled to debate this issue, he felt he had to testify.  Hart's emotional plea at the hearing changed allot of hearts and minds that day and the following day it passed, Lynn allways says "that it wasn't him, he just got in the way!". For his testimony, Hart received the "Making of King Holiday," Jan 13, 1993 award presented by Stevie Wonder on behalf of the MLK Federal Holiday Commissionin in Atlanta,Ga. One person can make a difference when he or she stands up for what they believe. He is a natural teacher and spokesperson and currently try to help fight Meth in Indian country  he has designed  these 12 anti meth posters.

I wish to take this moment to say THANK YOU!

To all the tribes and individuals who bought posters for their kids in their communities and schools. And to all those special people who work so very hard in the trenches on a daily bases with the kids! My hat goes off to all of you!! Thanks! for all your orders,

Your Friend

I have traveled the entire Lewis Clark Trail with Lynn Smokey Hart. His heart is good and his spirit is unquestionable. He shows humility in tough times. I am proud to call him a friend! It is unquestionably a tough time for our Nation. We all need to ask our Creator for guidance in our personal lives. I have prayed with Smokey on the banks of Americas Rivers before we proceeded on in a dugout canoe. Peace and Friendship is the message that Thomas Jefferson so desperately wanted to sell to our Native Americans through the eyes of the CORPS OF DISCOVERY! There is still a tremendous amount of work to be done to establish trust with our fellow man.

LEWIS AND CLARK THEN AND NOW, LINKING THE TRAIL TO AMERICA’S STUDENTS is now our mission of the men and women who retraced the trail. Mankind cannot continually abuse Mother Earth and them selves in search of the love of money. It truly is the spirit of Peace and Friendship that we all need to follow in our daily journey. I am proud of Smokey and am looking forward to working with him on making positive changes for the world…TEE

 "The Original American Indian Anti-Meth posters for Youth Across America". 

I specifically designed these posters to be relevant to Indian country because I felt they were unique and would aid in the battle against Meth on and off the American Indian reservations. It’s not going to be the "cure all" but I feel that the families and their youth living on the reservations in America need to use whatever American Indian people can to identify with in their own culture to help combat the use of Meth in their own backyards. So I designed the American Indian Anti-Meth posters to convey this message to Indian country.  Meth knows nothing or cares anything about your culture, your race, sex, or spirituality.  As a proud member of the Yankton Sioux Tribe I do care about preserving our cultural way of life and all the youth and families living within that sacred circle.

I started working on the project last spring or early summer 2007 when I noticed that the posters I saw were all about the after effects of meth; images of white people with rotten teeth and bad hair and nothing specific to American Indian culture. Nothing had an Indian motiff, so I decided to create posters for kids to take home and share with their families and friends and to put up in their bedrooms as a constant reminder to think about the dangers of Meth. Knowing how kids are, if you give one kid something cool and make it fun to have then it becomes another tool to use to get the message across to our youth.  My posters are are 11x17" highly glossed and look great!
 
The posters are very well received and are a positive tool and are effective in showing our youth a strong positive message that you care!

 My Indian policy starts with honoring the unique government to government relationship between tribes and the federal government and ensuring that our treaty obligations are met and ensuring that Native Americans have a voice in the White House.

Indian nations have never asked much of the United States, only for what was promised by the treaty obligations made by their forebears. So let me be clear: I believe that treaty commitments are paramount law, I’ll fulfill those commitments as president of the United States.
