Alaska, An Historic Trip For Liberty

During the last 20 years since the filing of Mack v US on February 28, 1994, I have traveled all over the country and have now reached a milestone; I have been to all 50 States! Alaska was the 50th and I just got back yesterday! It has been an amazing and miraculous journey. Since that fateful day I have spoken at freedom rallies and seminars in 46 states, Canada, the District of Columbia, and Fiji, and have been interviewed by news agencies from Japan, England, Canada, Australia, and Mexico. The only States I have visited but have not done a public event are Vermont, Louisiana, Rhode Island, and Connecticut.
But this trip to Alaska was so much more than just a visit to one of the most beautiful places in the world where I saw moose, climbed a glacier, and visited Sarah Palin’s hometown. I attended two different meetings, one exclusively for public officials and one the next day for the public. Both meetings focused on an historic topic: How does Alaska create the position of elected sheriffs in a State that has never had them and how can the CSPOA help Alaska get them?
That’s right, many people and public officers all across the American “final frontier,” want to have sheriffs doing in Alaska what some are doing in the lower 48 and what all of them should be doing. The bottom line is, these Alaskans want to choose for themselves the law enforcement representatives that work in their towns and boroughs. Alaskans want to be protected, they want to be defended, and they want to be free. They want the Constitutional Republic that was meant to be. They want Constitutional Sheriffs!

of Fidel Castro. Cruz warned that Castro’s ascent to power was realized by the use of propaganda and political schemes similar to those used in America today. It was an honor to share the podium with this former Cuban who is now a great American preacher and patriot. The message was loud and clear, let’s get back to the basics of American liberty, get the federal government out of our lives and out of our way, and let’s have Sheriffs in Alaska!
What a great idea and formula for freedom! Maybe this second to the last state can set the example for the rest of us and perhaps even get Connecticut (one of our first states), to wake up and get their sheriffs back! It’s all about freedom.


Hi Richard, this may sound a bit off key, but did you see any Russian troops while in Alaska?
Kudos, Sheriff Mack.
You beat me to the 50 mark – by the mid 1980s I had been in 49 of the 50 States, with Alaska being the last to be visited.
I was not aware that Alaska had no Sheriffs, and am very glad to see you’re working to correct that problem. I am glad you got to go up there in person to spearhead the mission.
Salute!

I am seeing blue, and red quarter size round stickers on mail boxes in metro Atlanta.Obvious just driving by because I am looking for them. Never seen them before in other states. Is McLamb still correct on this. I am seeing many red ones more than blue. Haven’t seen yellow yet but did see a green?
Sheriff Mack is an American Treasure!!! I want to encourage all of you to go to http://www.cspoa.org, read the resolution, join, and let’s stand up with Richard Mack on September 17th. It is the grass roots approach of an American Spring. Spread the word in every way that you can NOW!
Thank you OK’s and Sheriff Mack. We ARE the HOPE of America! We ARE the STRENGTH of America! We ARE the FUTURE of America!
