If you’re John Bircher, Freemason, or both, the party line there, is that the convention clause of the Fifth Article is a “constitutional convention” that will destroy the Constitution because we don’t have people smart enough for that type of stuff these days, and dark money would pour into it. Yet, the truth of the matter is: whatever proposed by delegates must be ratified by 75%+ of the states, and 75% is a political principle which mathematically precludes partisan bullshit from ever becoming high law. Delegates to the Article V Convention are not there to write a new Constitution, but there to propose amendments with overwhelming and broad support (term limits for members of Congress is a current proposal with such support). Any delegates on the take will be exposed for who and what they are by what they propose.
Most importantly, the federal convention process is the only thing which allows us to formally discuss our collective situation—and in doing that—destroys the status quo of politics as usual. It's a formal time-out on what is being perpetuated on the American people and our heritage. One of your members in a recent post by Bill mentioned it, which prompted me to reach out.
Our group was co-founded by a State Chief Justice and an Eagle Scout/constitutional scholar, and we created the first-ever PDF database of Congressional Records showing the states have legally satisfied the clause many times over. Yet if organizations like yours began messaging the truth, we will get the call, and from there, in a natural progression of events, we’ll vector away from the cliff.
The Article V Convention is not a concept, it’s a process with all the checks and balances of any other federal process.

Hi John,
I am still hesitant to schedule a call without a clearer understanding
of the specific topic. Please provide a brief written summary or the
specific details of the situation you would like to discuss.
Once I have more information, I can better determine if a call is the
best next step.
Best regards,
Brian

Hey Brian, It doesn’t have to be Bill, I’m happy to share the information with you, and you can tell him what it was about; asking ten minutes to brief you on a situation you’re likely unaware of.
Sincerely,

I’ve contacted you in the past and got the same answer. The nature of the call would be about the 2nd Amendment, something he doesn’t know, otherwise he’d already be saying it. Our group is referenced by the Congressional Research Service so this is not some quack request. Please have him call, it will take less than ten minutes to explain, and he and you take it for what you will.
Sincerely,

Hi John,
Could you please share a bit more information regarding the nature of
your request? I'll need to check with Bill Cawthon first to see if
he's interested in connecting.
Best regards,

Fwd: Be Advised - Malibu Art Association
So, I got copy of the Articles of Incorporation from Secretary of State proving the MAA as a 501c3 is member voting driven, and under statutory law they can’t dissolve it without a vote, and the statutory request/demand for the membership list, written by the legislature specifically to prevent a board from doing what they are—they have until the 19th to produce that list and contacts.

For the record, because I've been a surfer my whole life and all last decade hung out at the Rincon and Malibu Pits—where surfers get drunk and sometimes fight—I have a number of stories I’ve heard about myself which are mischaracterization or outright untrue. All I ask is that I’m allowed to face any accusations.
Not only a surfer, I’m poet/artist/playwright and just a had a staged reading of a play earlier this year, and I tend to look at everything in terms of narrative. The narrative here is that when I was first accepted and confirmed as member, Bonnie used to ask me for help with MAA, and at one of the Legacy shows early on, I said to Bonnie and Martha, that if I was going to get involved, I needed to see the bylaws—because I’ve already dealt with other art associations and egos.
Then Pamela said I was being kicked out for selling at Legacy on an off day, to which I replied I have a right based on the deed to the park, and what’s more, would not nor ever feel the need to mention MAA outside sanctioned events.
Then we finally had the “emergency” Zoom, that I’d been pushing for months, and it was for 5pm on a Monday, and there were members saying they’d help, but they’d just like to have an idea of what that looks like, whereupon you coughed up a communication that an email with details would be sent out. It’s now Saturday, and nothing. In terms of narrative—that’s criminal.
If it wasn’t clear in the initial email, just turn over the list, shred everything else, and let Helen/Alia/Mary reach out to membership.
I made a good sale off a call-back recently, so I have funds and time—and I’ve been grilling AI to get all the answers—and I will file an ex parte in Santa Monica. Not because I don’t have anything better to do, but because I like to sleep at night, and when the narrative of life throws something criminal at you, you act.
In the ex parte proceeding I must inform you by 10am the day before the hearing. If you show up, you’ll hear me present to the court all the emails leading up to now, and how the “emergency” meeting was a sham, and while the judge may not issue the order, it will be on the radar with that court, and of course I’d be reporting back.
Based on everything you've demonstrated, you ought to hand everything off to Helen/Alia/Mary and any other members who want to revitalize MAA.
If the joke is on me, and you want MAA to go on, but just want me gone—you could always ask.

Correction on that statute: it is California Corporations Code § 6330, giving respondents five days to produce the membership list.

poem
In surf culture, like sewing culture or any other; it's always about who’s been doing it longest and who really rips.
