\npromoting Dr. Martin Luther King’s Dream with cuee’s mission.\n<\/blockquote>\nVoiced by Morgan Freeman.\nSo we know CUEE is pouring money into their\n\nlocal disaster capitalism.<\/a>\n

\nThis is not sitting well with opponents of consolidation.\nHere’s JC Cunningham’s reaction:\n

\nI personally am not surprised by any tactics that Cuee uses in order to\nwin on Nov. 8th. In the last 5 minutes I have received 3 phone calls\nand 6 emails. Each one asked me what was I going to do about it?\nAfter the last call I began to get a little upset, because I did not\nask that person the same question. What are you going to do about\nthis?\n

\nCuee and the Chamber will try and get away with\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n

\nanything if we continue\nto let them. And the word is “we”. This is not a Sam Allen or JC\nCunningham fight. We are all in this together. When are “we” going to\nfight!! We have talked enough, it’s time for action.\n

\nWhat can we do!!!\n

    \n
  1. \nFlood Black Crow Media with phone calls all day and demand that\nthey pull that offense ad immediately or you will never listen or\nsupport any of their stations again. Call them locally at 244-8642 and\nat their headquarters in FL at 386-255-5130.\n
  2. \nFlood the Chambers phones all day with calls telling them that you\nare offended by their offensive tactics and that you and all friends\nwill boycott all chambers businesses immediately or until they pull\nthat offensive ad. The chambers number is 247–8100.\n
  3. \nCall up, email, text everyone you know at this moment and tell them\njust how far Cuee is willing to go to win the yes vote. Ask them to\nask their selves, What is this really all about? Why are they (Cuee)\nwilling to spend this much to force their will on the people? And,\nwhat is the sudden interest in saving African America children. Tell\nthem to ask themselves this question, when did Martin Luther King\nJr. name or legacy become a pawn for Cuee? And if Cuee does not have a\nconscience about distorting the words and beliefs on Dr. King what\nmakes you think they care about the children in Lowndes\/Valdosta.\n
  4. \nCall and tell your pastors what Cuee is doing and ask them to\nsupport the effort to get out the “NO” vote. Remind them that Dr. King\nwould not have just sat on the sidelines and watched. Remind them that\nDr. King stood for justice and he fought against people being excluded,\nthus he would have fought for the rights of the citizens of Lowndes to\nvote on unification.\n
  5. \nDonate your time, your resources and money!! Don’t wake up on the\nNov. the 9th and say “I wish I had done more”\n<\/ol>\nI love this town but I do not love what we are allowing to happen.\nCuee does not care about the fact that a vote for “yes” will be\ndevastating to a lot of people. Cuee and the Chamber seem to be\noblivious and unconcerned when it comes to people losing their jobs and\nseeing an increase in their taxes. They are unapologetic about rolling\nthe dice on lives of others. This is not about education!! What we\nall need to face is that this has really become personal to Cuee and\nthe Chamber. They do not appreciate that they have been questioned and\nthey felt that we should have just taken their word that they know\nbetter than both school systems. We were supposed to let them have\ntheir way. We didn’t and now they are willing spend as much as they\nhave too, they will lie, cheat and even defame the memory of one the\ngreatest men to walk this earth to get their way. I can’t help\nbut believe that even some Cuee supporters who are now asking the\nquestion why?\n
