STOP - LOOK - LISTEN
and then investigate the personnel of the so-caled

few office-seeking politicians with sufficient
to attempt to copyright the word "Citizens" and
it to further their selfish ends.

right according to your own judgment: It is an in
suit to your intelligence to be dictated to by self
appointed, select committee of politicians, self
labelled "CitiZens' Committee, any other
that may smell sweet.
If you believe in independence, vote indie

and rebuke the insult Of the Committee by voting
