Rally Recap
October 30, 2008
Here is your long awaited recap of our recent rally. We thank those who attended the rally in person as well as those who attended in spirit.
Despite the small number of individuals that were able to be there because of the time of the rally, we had many representitives from the media there with us. We garnered some favorable coverage of the rally itself at the event. The media coverage brought together many individuals that were in support of the rally’s cause, as well as bringing out many detractors from whom it was valuable to get their resoning for opposition.
The two main media outlets that covered the event were KSL tv and The Salt Lake Tribune I will include the contents from their reports as well as links to their original articles. We will post the Open Letters to the Government in an additional post.

Article Text:
Thomas Dyches knows what it’s like to lose everything. He has gone through a foreclosure and bankruptcy, but he blames only himself for the situation he’s in.
“I am one of those so-called foreclosure victims. We leveraged ourselves like the banks would love us to do,” said Dyches, a founder of Utah-based, nonpartisan pyrolitical.com. “But do not save me. Let me fix this on my own. Do not give us a bailout or stimulate us or save us. Washington, that is not your job.”
Cofounder Karson Kinikini read an open letter to the government praising Utah Reps. Jim Matheson and Rob Bishop for voting against the bailout. He called on Sens. Bob Bennett and Orrin Hatch and Rep. Chris Cannon to vote on the principles found in the Constitution and repeal the bill that Dyches sees as socialist.
“I will do everything in my power to ensure that those who do not listen to their constituencies do not return to Washington,” Kinikini said.
Randall Hinton, a cofounder of the group that promotes voters casting ballots based on constitutional principles, also went through foreclosure and lost his job. But he still disagrees with the current bailout and any future moves to buy bad debt.
“Do not protect me from my choices,” Hinton said. “I will live by the choices I’ve made and I will not ask those who have not made the same choices to bail me out of trouble.”

WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE. But we cannot do it alone, We the People allowed this mess to get out of control, it’s up to us to clean it up. Bring a blanket and come express your love for liberty, freedom and the Republic. Listen to dynamic speakers that are passionate about solving this problem. Get your personal torch of liberty ignited. WE MUST ACT NOW. If you care about our country and economy please join us.
Members of Pyrolitical (“Pyros”) will be on the steps of the State Capitol Building to demonstrate our concern over governmental intervention in this matter. We encourage all of you to attend and to invite your networks and organizations to do the same at your respective state capitols.
We expect hundreds of citizens to attend. Pyrolitical has also invited the media and politicians from all sides.
Let’s remind Washington who really runs our country. Our voice is our most effective check against runaway government and spending. Let’s unite and use it! We look forward to seeing you there!
