SALEM, Ore. – Donations are pouring in from across the country after the story of a local woman fighting bone cancer went viral on the Internet.

Jan Cline was holding yard sales each weekend in her backyard to raise money to pay her medical bills, but the city of Salem shut her down after a neighbor complained. A city ordinance prohibits people from holding more than three yard sales a year. The city has the ordinance because it says in the past people had set up flea-market-type sales on their property.

The story galvanized people who were outraged the city wouldn’t make an exception for Cline.

As of 10 p.m. Thursday, people have donated $16,500 to help Cline, and earlier in the day Salem’s mayor, Anna Peterson, pledged to help her.

Full story here.

  1. The only reason she is getting any help now is publicity. The hypocritical city truly wouldn’t give a rat’s ass if she dropped dead, but when publicity comes along it’s suddenly all different? Yes.

    100% of City Ordinances are UNCONSTITUTIONAL

    We have only one law of the land, and no “City Amendments” can be attached.
    Home Owner Associations are all illegal as well.

    Zoning and Ordinances began in 1913
    The Federal Reserve and Income Tax began in 1913
    America was bombed with WEAPONIZED LAW just before WW1 (1914)

    It’s all financial warfare. implimented through false authorities.
    False govenment must be removed from the US!!!!

    Housing Associations are unconstitutional. My father is actually involved in a major law suit in Florida with the developer of his retirement community. Well two to be honest. It was three. One was settled out of court with a non-disclosure agreement so I don’t know too many details but what I do know is the developer fearing he would loose his monthly income from the association’s fees if the law suit had gone to trial let him out of the association.

    The developer had demolished all the amenities of the community in order to build more houses and quadreplex units. He filled in the pool, closed the clubhouse and demolished it, plowed over all the walking and biking trails, tore up the tennis courts, and now the rest of the community is fed up.

    They went to my father who helped to organize them and now they are all suing like he did so the developer now is fighting tooth and nail to stop them from being able to leave the association even though it clearly states in it’s bylaws that the residents are allowed to. Hell he tried suing my father as part of this claiming he violated the non-disclosure agreement by helping to organize the residents. A summary ruling by a judge said otherwise so he be fucked.

    Knew friends who bought a timeshare in Orlando. Can imagine this is probably the same place.

    Seen the same tricks being played across the world. Developer buys up a large parcel of land. Builds the first set of properties on the highest bit of the land, then sells them off as “luxury apartments” with a cityscape view. Once those are all sold, the next block is built, which completely obliterates the view of the first one, as well as all the parking spaces. Too late for the residents – they can’t sell. And it continues again and again.

    Nope it isn’t the same place. My father’s home is in an actual retirement community in Lecanto. A lot of developers are like that regrettably.

    When I moved to Louisiana for work where the housing boom was still happening there and I could find work as a cabinet and furniture finisher I met some developers who take the cake. I was finishing onsite at the Lake Charles Country Club and this guy Drew (Last name withheld for fear of lawsuits against me knowing I ratted him out to the home buyers having a conscience.) was the primary developer in it. He was building shit boxes that Holmes on Homes would tear down to the foundation, then he would tear the foundation out.

    There would voids and air pockets in the slabs that compact cars could be parked in no word of a lie. All the quintiplex units (5 units side by side) had major cracks in the slabs running from the front to the back doors straight from one to the other. Million dollar plus homes were all made out of pressed board in a climate beyond moist and humid. Even with the knock off Tyvek on the walls the board was swelling and falling apart before they could get the siding up to hide it or the Sheetrock on the walls.

    Unless you GC your own home these days that is what you deal with.

  3. How dare she have yard sales on her own property! What does she think this is, America? Wait! This is happening in America! WTF!!!!!!

  4. Yeah, this isn’t the same country I was born in anyway. No medical, no money, and yet you’re suppose to pay your bills !

  5. If all of the people of America acted like the people giving to her cause in this video, things would be great. But some people in this country want to ridicule and think power over some poor woman makes them feel better, that makes me want to barf.
    All the insane sickening practices of some of the people in this country and for what, it will come around and bite you in the ass every time…

  6. If it was not in the spotlight she would be fined,and probably die in jail,I mean come on do you think you have private property or somthing.The State own’s your land make no mistake about it.

  7. Americans are going to have to protect their right to private property, the right to dispose of their property morally in any way they see fit. Legal statutes frequently serve as pretexts to do legally what is forbidden morally. While it may be legal, this is an immoral statute as are those statutes that make illegal that which is morally permissible, i.e., to sell lemonade from a child’s lemonade stand. This is not about public security or health, but about about the destruction of independent thought initiative. The Corporate Collective – IT’S minions proxies, is waging all out war against the mind, freedom, health private property of mankind. In this sense, America the American people, are one of the last great hopes for the future of humanity. Indeed, there IS a war on for your mind, but it goes far beyond that.

  8. first of all we have to HAVE private property, which we dont. we all lease from the state, which can take our property through eminient domain, or non payment of taxes, and pretty soon, just for kicks.

  9. DEAR Jan Cline;

    Hello Info blog star and off again on again victim to a law that is-not a law…

    Please learn from my these words following:

    You are also a victim of your tap-water, your local big-pharma distributor, as also,

    the new world dis-Order! So here’s what I would do if I were you, and knew what I know, myself, personally:

    Begin to drink bathe in nothing but pure distilled water! Stop useing hairsprays! Stop useing all (alleged pretty-products!) No more nail polish no more make-up save a little blush. Maybe some safe conditioners,…use mainly fruit natural-products such as herbal and naturals…

    There’s a book “Prescription for Nutritional Healing, by Balch Balch(husband wife team) and it will show you even easily using the Index.

    Find natural clean un-touched by herbicides pesticides natural herbs, such as red clover blossoms, pick them, eat some, save dry a paper bag full out on some paper dry them out then paperbag to keep in a dry cool place. Make a very dark tea with 4 or 5 blossoms,…really! Make a big pot of tea and add honey to suit taste…drink only this mainly instead of regular tea or coffee…

    Downsize cause a depression is coming. If you are bankrupt, take what you need, prepare what you can take, then walk away from the place-aft6er phoning the bank. If you have to, or rent rooms to trusting souls-even from this site. I would say sure! Then when you get healthy again, never forget to say your Prayers to JESUS, thank-you, and keep Him your center, not your enemies, nor your troubles, never ever again. Cause they will consume you, “IF” if you let them.

    Learn what food herbs to use what to do..remember this site has ecolo blue or just get a tap filter for showers baths otherwise rain water only. Drinking distilled purified water only!

    Praise JESUS! He taught to use Herbs…

  10. Oregon deserves this kind Russian Communist shake down activity. They are the dumbest and most stubborn stupid liberals in America after San Francisco and Boston.

    Oregon will die due to their mental illness of liberalism. The last state in the nation to figure out what communism is.

    They migrated there after the ore was gone. History tells all.

    No the dumbest people are the people who call themselves conservative but never live up to the title. Those are the bunch that is gung ho for every war the zionists can think up.

  11. I gotta be on the city’s side here. The problem we have with the federal government is they bend to whatever sob story needs attending. Its the same thing here. If you make an exception for her, then where do you stop? I feel for her and all, but I’m sure before she got sick she was happy about her neighbors not being able to have permanent garage sales in her neighborhood.

  12. fuck Salem’s mayor….fuck the city council….she should give back any help from the fucking mayor…burn down the fucking city hall….

  13. The mafia pervert child molesting genocidal scum that run this place want their cut no matter what it is. garage sale money goes straight to the seller. The buyer pays no tax. They can’t stand not getting a peice of the action. Fight them all the way on this one.

  14. I’m pretty sure it says somewhere in your constitution that if the government is no longer functioning properly you have the right to abolish it. I can’t honestly see how much more disfunctional it could possibly become. I’m pretty sure when the Forefathers penned that right, they didn’t intend for you to do it with sticks and stones, hence the right to bear arms.

    The only thing I can’t understand is what the hell you are waiting for.

  15. Give me Liberty or give me Death!!! Here’s a simple question for ya. What would you rather deal with, the inconveniences of having liberty or the inconvenience of not having it at all?

  16. Salem offers free employee assistance(EAP), and it is free to their dependents, too!
