Jim Garrison Nominated for "Profile in Courage Award"
#15
I remember in '69, wondering what all the "media" eruption was about. Being 16 and I was not aware of the machinations of the so called "Justice System" as shills to empire, however I was aware good ol' (not my uncle walter) Walter Cronkite and David Brinkley ware lying to me and hometown "Indy Star" newspaper was full of Nixon worshiping fools.

I got busted by my Momma reading the Playboy article of Garrison's interview. I never saw my Playboy again, maybe my Pop did. "Momma I was only reading the articles" (at that moment anyway).
Censored nudity, OK in that context (in my Momma's house) , censored truth, never ever OK.

In 1969, I was not experienced enough in life to know yet of the FBI and CIA and DIA and ONI Spooks derailing Judge Garrison's efforts. Spooks is Spooks. Not all are disloyal I know.

Mr. Drago, I cannot imagine anyone that deserves recognition as demonstrating courage in a more direct fashion than Judge Jim Garrison. I commend your nomination. I hope he can at least be honored by this distinction. A Profile in Courage IN FACT.

How many times have I said (even if to myself), Why can't one judge, just one damn judge OPEN this Case? One judge in the state of Texas, just one? OK how about prosecutors? Just one?
Instead we have a reality TV show called "texas justice"! NOT.

I suspect the other legal personnel know exactly what was done to Judge Garrison, not just we that have a long lived and abiding interest in real Justice for JFK, MLK, and RFK. In short for America.

Authors of works about the Clay Shaw Trial I hold in very high regard are Mssrs. Garrison himself, Bill Davy and Jim DiEugenio. And Ms. Joan Mellen. Not in any order of preference. I cannot leave out Penn Jones Jr. but I almost did.

Jim Garrison is a hero to me. He tried to serve the Republic in deeds. No one else even tried!

OK so we try also.
Heroes? Only 4 for me. But Judge Jim Garrison is one of the four.
We need citizens like him. Not more Herbert Hoover retreaded junk.
Jim
