TODAY (12-02-12) IS THE 13TH DAY OF THE INDEFINITE HUNGER STRIKE!

FINALLY – AFTER 19-MONTHS OF THE SAVE JOHN MARSHALL CAMPAIGN, HUNDREDS OF PAGES OF CORRESPONDENCE, HUNDREDS OF HOURS OF DEMONSTRATIONS IN ALL KINDS OF WEATHER, AND ON THE 13TH DAY OF AN INDEFINITE HUNGER STRIKE – AN ARTICLE IN THE PLAIN DEALER!

THE PLAIN DEALER – OHIO’S LARGEST NEWSPAPER -- IS THE FOURTH  NEWSPAPER TO WRITE ABOUT THE HUNGER STRIKE BY A 70-YEAR OLD SIKH AMERICAN TO SAVE HISTORIC 80-YEAR OLD JOHN MARSHALL HIGH SCHOOL IN CLEVELAND, OHIO!

INDIA ABROAD – CATERING TO INDIAN-AMERICANS WAS THE FIRST NEWSPAPER!

INDIAWEST – ALSO CATERING TO INDIAN-AMERICANS WAS THE SECOND NEWSPAPER!

PLAIN PRESS -- THE COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER FOR CLEVELAND’S WEST SIDE NEIGHBORHOODS – WAS THE THIRD NEWSPAPER!

HERE IS A LINK TO THE ARTICLE AS POSTED ON CLEVELAND.COM – THE PLAIN DEALER’S WEBSITE:

http://www.cleveland.com/naymik/index.ssf/2012/12/a_cleveland_mans_hunge...

THE PLAIN DEALER IS IN BED WIH CITY HALL:
UNFORTUNATELY – I CANNOT PARTICIPATE IN THE ONLINE DISCUSSON ON CLEVELAND.COM AS THE PLAIN DEALER NOT ONLY KICKED ME OUT (I CAN NO LONGER POST ON CLEVELAND.COM) – THEY ALSO DELETED ALL MY COMMENTS BECAUSE I WAS STATING THAT MAYOR JACKSON AND OTHERS IN CITY HALL AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT WERE NOT HONEST & TRUSTWORHY ON THE $50 MILLION  JOHN MARSHALL HIGH SCHOOL PROJECT – AND THUS COULD NOT BE TRUSTED FOR IMPLEMENTING THE FUNDS  FROM THE 15-MILL LEVY.

The Plain Dealer wants Public Officials to be honest and trustworthy --- but has not been honest and trustworthy with the SAVE JOHN MARSHALL campaign. Terrance C. Z. Egger, President and Publisher of The Plain Dealer has not responded to three e-mails and two certified letters – pertaining to the subject; IS THE PLAIN DEALER IN BED WITH CITY HALL?

As there has been no response from Mr. Egger, one can safely conclude that THE PLAIN DEALER IS IN BED WITH CITY HALL and the SAVE JOHN MARSHALL campaign will continue to assert this fact.

I appreciate the fact that Mr. Naymik took the time to interview me and write an article that covers the human side of the SAVE JOHN MARSHALL campaign. I thoroughly enjoyed the interview and found the article was very poetic. However, the underlying reasons for the hunger srike – a fight against injustice meted out by City Hall – collusive inaction, vote rigging, and denial of due process – have not yet been addressed.

HUNGER STRIKE:
A HUNGER STRIKE IS A CRY FOR JUSTICE WHEN DUE PROCESS IS DENIED TO CITIZENS WHO HAVE NEITHER POWER NOR WEALTH!

HUNGER STRIKE TO SAVE HISTORIC 80-YEAR OLD JOHN MARSHALL HIGH SCHOOL STARTED ON NOVEMBER 20, 2012 AT 12:01 A.M. AND WILL CONTINUE INDEFINITELY UNLESS THE DEMAND IS MET!

THE DEMAND IS THAT GOVERNOR KASICH OF OHIO ORDER THE CLEVELAND METROPOLITAN SCHOOL DISTRICT TO CEASE & DESIST FROM DEMOLISHING HISTORIC 80-YEAR OLD JOHN MARSHALL HIGH SCHOOL BECAUSE OF GROSS IRREGULARITIES COMMITTED: COLLUSIVE INACTION, VOTE RIGGING, & DENIAL OF DUE PROCESS!

THREE CERTIFIED LETTERS (DATED OCTOBER 8, 2012; NOVEMBER 8, 2012 & NOVEMEBER 20, 2012) WERE SENT TO GOVERNOR KASICH!

SO FAR GOVERNOR KASICH HAS NOT RESPONDED TO ANY OF THE THREE CERTIFIED LETTERS!

ALSO, MAYOR JACKSON NEVER RESPONDED, DESPITE MULTIPLE REMINDERS (VIA E-MAIL & CERTIFIED MAIL) TO THE REQUEST DATED NOVEMBER 8, 2012 THAT:

Mayor Jackson and others
(Councilman and City Council President Martin J. Sweeney;
CMSD CEO Eric S. Gordon; Chair of CMSD Board of Education Denise W. Link;
Cleveland Landmarks Commission Chair Jennifer Coleman;
Manager of Architecture Robert Vilkas;
Councilman Anthony Brancatelli; and Councilwoman Phyllis E. Cleveland)

provide written responses by Monday November 19, 2012 at the latest, to questions (on the $50 million John Marshall High School Construction Project) all in the context of  Mayor Jackson’s statement: I have “never lied to you” and the The Plain Dealer’s call for honesty, trustworthiness, accountability, clarity, and transparency in public officials.

The questions pertain to gross irregularities committed: collusive inaction, vote rigging, & vote rigging.
