FPAC Framingham First Amendment Run Around

Every tax is a pay cut. Every tax cut is a pay raise.

Just because you're not interested in politics doesn't mean politics isn't interested in you.

November 13, 2003 meeting at the library. 12 people show up. Town goes nuts.
Joe Rizoli gets fired from his cable job because of his political views on illegal immigration.
In 2004, the CCFIILE show begins on FPAC. It now has over 250 shows.
In 2007, The Weekly Show starts
The Weekly Show 86 touches on the Holocaust. The shit hits the fan. Jim gets kicked out of his BNI business network.
Jim and Joe Rizoli have been using FPAC as a medium of communications as far back as 2004, first broadcasting the CCFILE anti-illegal immigration show. In 2008, they started The Weekly Show.
An incident ocurred on October 27, 2009 when a Jewish woman, Cathryn Sue Kaner-Taytslin of 15 Tally Ho Lane, Framingham, MA 01701, sent out an email on FRAMCOM, a widely distributed email list

suggesting that Jim Rizoli's carpet cleaning business should be boycotted because she did not like what he had to say on his show. We believe that this started on The Weekly Show 86 on October 13, 2009.

Up to this point, Jim and Joe Rizoli had not received any complaints from FPAC concerning any aspects of their show.
Once he was being attacked by the Jewish community and was tossed out of BNI, his show started talking about the Jews. All of a sudden, FPAC started sending him complaints about his show. The complaints are based on pure bureaucracy in the FPAC Member Poilicies and Procedures Manual. FPAC has to be very careful that they do not mention content.

FPAC starts multiple re-writes of its policies and procedures manual. FPAC has always had a Member Policies and Procedures Manual which has undergone two major revisions since November 2009.
What FPAC is basically doing is a run-around on First Amendment rights using petty bureaucracy as a tool.
More recently, the following article showed up in the Metrowest Daily News.

I was a witness on behalf of the Rizolis at an FPAC meeting on May 18, 2010. FPAC President Gwendolyn Holbrow was a complainant at the meeting and Joel Winett was chairing the meeting. Winett stated that the meeting was being recorded but would not permit us to record, so we walked out in protest. I have been to many meetings in my short political life of eight years, but I rank this meeting as the most hostile one I have attended. For this, I can thank Joel Winett and Gwendolyn Holbrow.
It started when Gwendolyn Holbrow stated
"I do want to sit at the same table as Wolfe"
This was my very first meeting with Gwendolyn Holbrow and she shows her bigotry, bias and pettiness as a person......and she's the President of FPAC. Outstanding!
Suffice it to say that any and all contact with FPAC personnel will now be recorded and archived for future use in court.
The FPAC Board of Directors struck me to be acting as judge, jurors and executioners in trying to get the Rizolis off the air.
According to the FPAC's Executive Director, the last two shows submitted by the Rizolis did not have any complaints. The last two shows were shown after they were kicked off of FPAC. In essence, the FPAC Board of Directors felt that they had accomplished their task and did not review the last two shows.
It has been my observation that the FPAC Board of Directors will not respond to questions that they do not want to answer. They will sit there and say nothing at all. This makes them strikingly stupid.....not just ordinary everyday stupid, but real bonafide Hindenburg stupid.
