Political hit job on Ware PD Chief by unelected beaureaucrats who claim Shawn Crevier violated “Conflict of interest” law by…honoring his oath of office to uphold the Constitution.
By Toby Leary, The Civil Rights Coalition
The State Ethics Commission is compromised.
Recently, The State Ethics Commission sent Ware PD Police Chief Shawn Crevier a public education letter about how he had violated the “conflict of interest” law by…get this…honoring his oath of office to uphold the Constitution!
Yes, that was a political hit-job by the unelected bureaucrats in the ethics commission office. I am sure they concluded (all on their own) that anyone who doesn’t willingly fall in-line must be put on notice. This is reminiscent of a mob-style extortion racket by the state: “Hey, this sure is a nice restaurant, it would be a shame if anything happened to it! “
It’s ironic that the police chief who warned about impending rights violations was served by the commission. I wonder if the other police chiefs who spoke in uniform at press events when gun-control (confiscation) laws were enacted received a letter, too? I know the answer to the rhetorical question…
One thing has become true of late: Project onto your enemies exactly what you do or have done!
This brings us to the actual violations of the Conflict of Interest Laws, which will no doubt go completely unnoticed by the commission’s oversight. You know the drill…” Nothing to see here, folks, move along.”
Exhibit number one: M.G.L. Chapter 268A: The Conflict of Interest Law
Section 1: Definitions
Are you suggesting that offering economic benefits to members of the general court in exchange for their votes is a violation of the conflict of interest law? YES.
As a general rule, Section 2 of the state conflict of interest law (offers or promises to influence official acts) makes it unlawful for anyone to directly or indirectly, corruptly give, offer or promise, anything of value to any state (county or municipal) employee, with the intent to influence any official act of such employee, specifically enumerating “the enactment of legislation”.
Clearly, the enticement by bestowing a financially valuable leadership stipend upon select members of the state legislature with the intent to influence their strict voting compliance in lock-step with party leadership, falls within the definition of conflict of interest under Massachusetts statute.
Can you imagine a more corrupt state, where it wields its power for any and all opposition to its nefarious endeavors, but closes its eyes to actual corruption happening under its nose by the very elite leaders of the state? As Doug Weidman said in his USA Today article on January 18th 2024 ‘Projection’ is the process of displacing one’s feelings onto a different person, animal or object. Today, in pure political terms, it is the political left, as embodied in the Democrat Party, accusing Republicans…of the very things of which they are guilty. Here in MA they are accusing Shawn Crevier of a conflict of interest while they are allowing the worst version of it to happen in the Peoples House.
In the private sector, entering into a contract to defraud the other party is considered a willful and intentional act of deception, subject to punitive damages under Chapter 93A. If the party is found guilty, the Judge must double the award and may triple it. This serves as a deterrent to anyone considering conspiracy to defraud. Now look at the deceitful acts of the Legislature and Governor who conspired to defraud the public of their fundamental rights enshrined in the Bill of Rights. The executive branch, in collaboration with the legislative branch, unelected bureaucrats, and NGOs, while pretending to protect the public, has actually violated their oath of office. All politicians swear the following oath: I, A. B., do solemnly swear, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and will support the constitution thereof. So help me, God.
Well let’s look at the constitution they have sworn allegiance to:
Article I (amended): All people are born free and equal and have certain natural, essential and unalienable rights; among which may be reckoned the right of enjoying and defending their lives and liberties. Emphasis added.
Article V.
All power residing originally in the people, and being derived from them, the several magistrates and officers of government, vested with authority, whether legislative, executive, or judicial, are their substitutes and agents, and are at all times accountable to them.
Article VI.
No man, nor corporation, or association of men, have any other title to obtain advantages, or particular and exclusive privileges, distinct from those of the community…
Look at what then AG Healey wrote in 2016 on the state’s FAQ AWB enforcement: I am a law enforcement officer. Does the notice affect me?
No. The notice does not change the law with respect to ownership of Assault Weapons by law enforcement officers. Your existing right to buy and possess Assault Weapons remains protected under Massachusetts law. This is obviously a violation of Article VI emphasis added.
Article VII.
Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity and happiness of the people; and not for the profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men: Therefore the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity and happiness require it.
Article XVII.
The people have a right to keep and to bear arms for the common defence. And as, in time of peace, armies are dangerous to liberty, they ought not to be maintained without the consent of the legislature; and the military power shall always be held in an exact subordination to the civil authority, and be governed by it.
And Last but certainly no least:
Article XVIII.
A frequent recurrence to the fundamental principles of the constitution, and a constant adherence to those of piety, justice, moderation, temperance, industry, and frugality, are absolutely necessary to preserve the advantages of liberty, and to maintain a free government. The people ought, consequently, to have a particular attention to all those principles, in the choice of their officers and representatives: and they have a right to require of their lawgivers and magistrates, an exact and constant observance of them, in the formation and execution of the laws necessary for the good administration of the commonwealth. Emphasis added.
As you can see, we’re only 18 articles in, yet numerous violations are happening at the State House regarding how our legislature “represents” us and breaches their Oath of Office. Is this why the Democrats on Beacon Hill want to change to oath of office? They are proposing to change the words “Swear” to “Affirm”…and “so help me God” to “under pains and penalties of perjury”. This is obviously because they don’t fear the pains and penalties of perjury because they lie for a living…and Swear is a sacred commitment and even the Bible warns against Swearing an Oath and violating it. This is known as the Quaker oath but it is for very different reasons. Affirming does not give the same moral commitment and these pols know it.
I leave you with this question: If we the people, the legitimate fountain of power, fail, refuse, or ignore such egregious abuse of power, then who will right the wrongs? As we often say in defensive firearms training: NO ONE IS COMING TO SAVE YOU. Now is the time to hold our elected officials accountable.November 5th, we can wipe the slate clean and start fresh. Remind the freshman class coming into office that the Oath of Office is your sacred obligation. You have a fiduciary responsibility to the people and the Constitution. You are not the grantor of rights so you cannot infringe them. It is time for you to Comply!
To the State Ethics Commission: DO YOUR JOB!
Toby Leary of The Civil Rights Coalition urges voters to send home public servants who are not doing their job—serving the people on November 5th.

One more reason to remove the arm and sword of Myles Standish the murderer from the state Seal and Flag. It’s a sign of subjugation. “You WILL Comply !!!”
