Because of recent San Juan County land battles and the local push back from the heavy handedness of government bureaucracies, I think you'll find it interesting to compare the similarities. This is a reenactment of a significant and important milestone in United States history and Patrick Henry was one of the firebrands who helped change the course of history. There are many parallels with the situation we face in San Juan County, as we contemplate the disparity faced by Western States. I hope you'll take the time to watch this excellent performance.
