Sometimes all it takes is a comment to remind me of why I started doing this. Activism.

An article in the Washinton Examiner was posted. “A fisherman sues the feds for acting like crooks” August 16, 2012 by Ron Arnold. From the article: As raw December 1998 swept over the Atlantic off New Bedford, Mass., scallop fisherman Larry Yacubian brought around his boat, Independence, hailed by the Coast Guard. The officers who boarded his fishing vessel didn’t tell Yacubian it was a setup to coerce out of him a ruinous fine and to destroy his life so thoroughly he could never get it back…… Two weeks ago, Captain Yacubian filed the lawsuit that may well restore his money and his life after nearly 15 years of gut-wrenching bludgeoning by the NOAA.

I was going through my emails and saw this [email protected] , Kligo, First: How is the government responsible for a case 15 years ago. Second: Do you think once a government changes that everybody is fired and every position refilled with “conforming” ones? Third: Illegal presidency?

I did respond and linked some articles that he needed to read.

    My first commercial fishing job was with Larry yacubian. on his first boat Susan Y. He was a rich kid only 23 years old had a huge estate in Westport Mass. He owed me $500 but didn’t pay me. We had a bad season I was broke so I sued him I won the case his father acted as his lawyer. I work 2 years for Larry lobstering and swordfishing I was not the first deck Larry screwed one of my fellow deck on the Susan told me Larry made millions of dollars selling his scallop permits he was not too sympathetic about Larry’s legal troubles that being said I never made any money working for Larry but I had lots of fun delivering swordfish and lobsters to Nantucket and Martha’s Vineyard rip Larry
