IN ACCORDANCE W/TITLE 17 U.S.C. SEC. 107, THIS MATERIAL IS DISTRIBUTED W/OUT PROFIT TO THOSE WHO HAVE EXPRESSED A PRIOR INTEREST IN RECEIVING THE INCLUDED INFORMATION FOR RESEARCH & EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES. TRUTHOUT HAS NO AFFILIATION WHATSOEVER W/THE ORIGINATOR OF THIS ARTICLE NOR IS TRUTHOUT ENDORSED OR SPONSORED BY THE ORIGINATOR. ...Remembrance of the many innocent people in prisons whose lives have been stolen by the US criminal justice (sic) system that is as inhumane as it is indifferent to justice. Prosecutors & judges as wicked & corrupt as any who served Hitler or Stalin. ... All Americans are now imprisoned in a world of lies & deception created by the Bush Regime & the 2 complicit parties of Congress, by federal judges too timid or ignorant to recognize a rogue regime running roughshod over the Constitution, by a bought-&-paid-for media that serves as propagandists for a regime of war criminals, & by a public who have forsaken their Founding Fathers... Freedom & democracy in America have been reduced to no-fly lists, spying w/out warrants, arrests w/out warrants or evidence, permanent detention despite the constitutional protection of habeas corpus, torture despite the prohibition against self-incrimination –the list goes on and on... Any & every American can be arrested by unaccountable authority, held indefinitely w/out Charges & tortured until he or she can no longer stand the abuse & confesses TO ALAGATIONS...What better indication that the US Constitution has lost its authority when elected representatives closest to the people pass a bill that permits the Bill of Rights to be overturned by the subjective opinion of members of an "Extremist Belief Commission" and Homeland Security bureaucrats? Clearly, Americans face no greater threat than the government in Washington.
..I AM A CRIMINAL......My premise is simply that government, not only at the federal level but in particular at the state & local level, has grown so gorged & bloated that it has become virtually impossible for any of us to remain "law-abiding citizens." In order to be law-abiding, one must first know & understand the law. Now I ask you, in today’s society how many people really know, let alone understand, "the law?" Moreover, how many policemen really know or, more importantly, understand the law? Do the lawyers & judges, who are charged with the protection of America’s most sacred document, even understand the law? Judging from the number of appealed judgments these days, it would appear that even these "protectors of justice" are unable to effectively untangle the thicket of jurisprudence created by the endless loads of fertilizer produced by the various legislatures.
American Revolution (1775-1783, conflict between 13 British Colonies in N. America & their parent country, Great Britain. It was made up of 2 related events: the American War of INDEPENDENCE (1775-1783) & the formation of the American government as laid out by the Const. of the U.S. in 1787, First, the war achieved INDEPENDENCE from GREAT BRITAIN by the colonies, Second, the newly CREATED U.S. OF AMERICA, established a REPUBLICAN FORM OF GOVERNMENT, IN WHICH PROWER (resided with the people). 14th Amend. Clause discusses the rights of Naturalized & American born citizens, No state can enforce any type of law that can deprive or take away priviledges of citizens, state cannot take away the freedoms of life, property or liberty without due process, nor deny them equal protection of the law. The idea that laws & legal proceedings must be fair. The Constitution guarantees that the government cannot take away a person’s (BASIC RIGHTS) to life, liberty or property, without due process of law, Courts have issued numerous rulings about what this means in particular cases. Due Process is BEST defined in one word- FAIRNESS. Throughout the U.S. History, it’s constitutions, statutes & case law have provided standards for FAIR TREATMENT OF CITIZENS BY FEDERAL, STATE, & LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. These standards are known as due process. When a person is treated UNFAIRLY by the government, including the COURTS, he is said to have been DEPRIVED of or DENIED DUE PROCESS.
In 1971, the U.S. Supreme Court decided that the mere public display of fuck is protected under the First and Fourteenth Amendments and cannot be made a criminal offense. In 1968, Paul Robert Cohen had been convicted of "disturbing the peace" for wearing a jacket with "FUCK THE DRAFT" on it (in reference to conscription in the Vietnam War). The conviction was upheld by the Court of Appeals and overturned by the Supreme Court. Cohen v. California, 403 U.S. 15 (1971).
In 1983, pornographer Larry Flynt, representing himself before the U.S. Supreme Court in a libel case, shouted, "Fuck this court!" during the proceedings, and then called the justices "nothing but eight assholes (referring to Justices Chief Justice Warren E. Burger had him arrested for contempt of court, but the charge was later dismissed on a technicality.
Prosecutor: A Government Official Who CONDUCTS Criminal or Quasi-Criminal Case's In Criminal, Municipal or Traffic Court. The American People Have A Tendency, When They Walk into A Courtroom, They Think They Have To Talk To The prosecutor, So The prosecutor Can Down Grade The Charge, MAKING The U.S. People (THINK) There Getting Over, But In (Reality) (MONEY CAMES OUT OF YOUR POCKET WITH AN ILLEGAL CONVICTION) or WITHOUT LEGAL DUE PROCESS. WOW, If It's That Easy Maybe We Can All Come Up With A Major WORLD PERFECTED SCAM. DID THE AMERICA PEOPLE KNOW THAT WHAN THEY ARE CALLED IN COURT TO CONTEST THERE CASE. Not only the (physical element) OF THE OFFENSE must be (PROVEN) thats why your there, But also a (mental element) OF THE OFFENSE MUST BE PROVEN BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT, For A Conviction To Be Sustained.>>> We ARE ALL In AN ECONOMICAL WAR, WITH THE COURT SYSTEM OF ARE OWN NEGLECT IN THE LAW: The General Public Who Are Not Wealthy, Cannot Afford Spiraling Attorney Fees. With Attorney Fees, Spiraling About $200 AN HOUR, More People Who Can't Afford The Tab-Or Choose Not To Pay Do To Incompetence Of The JUDICIAL SYSTEM Are Getting ECONOMICALLY SLAUGHTERED & DEPRIVED TO JAIL TIME DO TO, NOT PAYING FINES, COSTS, & FEES. To FORCE A LAWYER OR PUBLIC DEFENDER ON A DEFENDANT CAN ONLY LEAD HIM TO BELIVE THAT THE LAW CONTRIVES AGAIST HIM .> The defendant & NOT HIS OR HER LAWYER OR THE STATE WILL BEAR THE PERSONAL CONSEQUENCES OF A CONVICTION. It Is The Defendant, Therefore, who must be free personally to decide whether in her or her particular case counsel is to his or her own detriment, his choice must be honored out of that respect for the individual which is the lifeblood of the law.
Our government is the potent, the omnipresent teacher. For good or for ill, it teaches the whole people by its example. Crime is contagious. If the Government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law: it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy. To declare that in the administation of the criminal law the end justifies the means - to declare that the Government may commit crimes in order to secure the conviction of a private criminal - would bring terrible retribution. Against that pernicious doctrine this Court should resolutely set its face." Justice Louis Brandeis in Olmstead v. U.S., 277 US at 485. (1928)
Here is the often expressed understanding from the United States Supreme Court, that "in common usage, the term "person" does not include the Sovereign, statutes employing the person are ordinarily construed to exclude the Sovereign." Wilson v. Omaha Tribe, 442 U.S. 653, 667 (1979) (quoting United States v. Cooper Corp., 312 U.S. 600, 604 (1941)). See also United States v. Mine Workers, 330 U.S. 258, 275 (1947).
