			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#008000;">(For Austin) <span style="color:#ff0000;">   </span></span></strong></div>
<div><strong><strong></strong></strong></p>
<div><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#008000;">(Blog Master&#8217;s Note: The remedy at the bottom of this post, may work for other statutes that name American Citizens as the enemy.   Such statutes continue to multiply, and will probably continue to, regardless of the party in power.) </span></strong></div>
<p><strong></strong></div>
<div>
<p align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:large;">The district courts of the United States are in fact, courts of prize !</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong>Considering the above, the necessity arose, to declare the American People (presumptive) Enemies of the State (of the forum) and thereby classify every man woman and child a &#8220;belligerent&#8221; of the United States Corporation. The ongoing and various states of emergency under the war powers act provides the belligerent classification as a permanent condition and for the reason to summarily plunder and pillage the American People into the indefinite future and generally, their meager property interests as well while in the hands of the &#8220;Administrator’s&#8221; aka Judges of these U.S. District Courts of Prize.</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong>It should follow, that in all cases where charges are brought in the name of the &#8220;Estate&#8221; of an American Citizen by the United States of America&#8221; before any U.S. District Court; failure of that court to establish that the American Citizen who is collaterally joined to that named Estate pursuant to public policy and as said policy owes its origin from HJR-192. Whereas, said court has the mandatory burden to establish the legislatively crafted &#8220;presumption&#8221; of &#8220;Enemy of the State&#8221; as attaching and thereby becoming the prejudicial badge of &#8220;belligerent&#8221; as factually applicable to the party in question.</strong></p>
<p><strong>RECAPTURE, war. By this term is understood</strong> <strong>the recovery from the enemy, by a friendly force, of a prize by him captured. It differs from rescue. (q.v.)</strong><br />
<strong>　　　　 2. It seems incumbent on follow citizens, and it is of course equally the duty of allies, to rescue each other from the enemy when there is a reasonable prospect of success. 3 Rob. Rep. 224.</strong><br />
<strong>　　　　 3. The recaptors are not entitled to the property captured, as if it were a new prize; the owner is entitled to it by the right of postliminium. (q.v.) Dall. Dict. mots Prises maritimes, art. 2, Sec. 4.</strong></p>

<p><strong><span style="font-size:large;">JENNINGS V. CARSON, 8 U. S. 2 (1807)</span></strong><br />
<strong>Case Preview<br />
<strong>Full Text of Case<br />
<strong>U.S. Supreme Court<br />
<strong><strong></strong></strong>Jennings v. Carson, 8 U.S. 4 Cranch 2 (1807)</strong></strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>Jennings v. Carson<br />
<strong>8 U.S. (4 Cranch) 2<br />
<strong>Syllabus</strong></strong></strong></p>
<p><strong>The owner of a privateer capturing neutral property is not liable to a decree of restitution unless the property or its proceeds came to his hands.</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;">The district courts of the United States are courts of prize, and have power to carry into effect the sentences of the old continental courts of appeals in prize causes.  In all proceedings <em>in rem,</em> the court has a right to order the thing to be taken into custody of the law, and it is to be presumed to be in custody of the law unless the contrary appears.</span></span></strong></span></span></strong></span></strong></span></p>
<p><strong>The thing does not follow the appeal into the superior court, but remains in the court below, which has a right to order it to be sold, if perishable, notwithstanding the appeal.</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;">By the Judicial Act, the district courts of the United States are also courts of admiralty, and no law has regulated their practice. Yet they proceed according to the general rules of the admiralty.</span></span></strong></span></span></strong></span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;">It must be supposed that a court of admiralty having prize jurisdiction, and consequently proceeding <em>in rem,</em> and not having its practice precisely regulated by law, would conform to those principles which especially govern those courts proceeding <em>in rem</em> and which seem necessarily to belong to the proper exercise of their functions.</span></span></strong></span></span></strong></span></strong></span></p>
<p><strong>A sentence of reversal and restoration, by which property captured on the high seas is again restored to the owners, is not conclusive evidence that the captors were wrongdoers.</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;">A belligerent cruiser which, with probable cause, seizes a neutral and takes her into port for adjudication and proceeds regularly is not a wrongdoer &#8212; the act is not tortious. The order of restoration proves that the property was neutral, not that it was taken without probable cause.</span></span></strong></span></span></strong></span></strong></span></p>
<p><strong>This was an appeal from the sentence of the Circuit Court for the District of Pennsylvania in a cause civil and maritime in which Jennings was the libellant and Carson the respondent, the former claiming to be owner of the sloop <em>George</em> and cargo, captured in the year 1778 by the American privateer <em>Addition,</em> commanded by Moses Griffin, of which the respondent Carson was part owner and which was libeled and condemned on 31 October, 1778, as lawful prize by the Court of admiralty for the State of New Jersey, from which sentence of condemnation there was an appeal to the continental court of appeals, established under authority of the old Congress, where the sentence of condemnation was, on 23 December, 1780, reversed and restitution ordered, but never obtained. In the meantime, however, the vessel and cargo had been sold by the marshal of the state court of admiralty for paper money under an order of the court contained in the sentence of condemnation, and it did not appear what had been done with that money. No measures were taken to enforce the decree of restitution during the old confederation.</strong></p>
<p><strong>On 19 May, 1790, after the adoption of the present Constitution of the United States, Jennings filed his libel in the district court for the District of Pennsylvania alleging that he was a subject of the States</strong></p>
<p><strong>Page 8 U. S. 3</strong></p>
<p><strong>General of the United Provinces, an inhabitant and domiciled at the island of St. Eustatius, and owner of the sloop <em>George</em> and her cargo, at the time of capture bound to the port of Egg Harbor in the United States, and consigned to A. and G. Caldwell,</strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;">in the prosecution of which voyage she was illegally captured by the privateer <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:large;"><em>Addition</em></span></span></strong></span></span></strong></span></span></strong></span><em></em></strong></span><em><span style="font-size:large;">,</span></em><strong>owned in part by the respondent, Carson, and praying process for arresting Carson to answer, &amp;c. A supplemental libel was filed setting forth the proceedings against the vessel in the Court of Admiralty of New Jersey; the sentence of condemnation, the appeal, the reversal of that sentence, and the order of restitution.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Neither the original nor supplemental libel prayed any specific or general relief other than process for arresting Carson, so that he should appear to answer the libellant</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;in his said complaint of the wrongs and injuries aforesaid according to the resolutions of the continental Congress, the laws of the United States, and of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and the laws and usages of nations in this behalf practiced, used, and established.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Carson, being taken upon the writ of arrest, appeared and filed his plea and answer, averring the sloop <em>George</em> to have been the property of a subject of the King of Great Britain at the time of capture and employed in carrying goods to the British army and navy; that the goods were imported directly or indirectly from Great Britain or Ireland, contrary to the regulations of Congress and the law of nations, the King of Great Britain then being at war with the United States.</strong></p>
<p><strong>It admits that Carson was the owner of one-third of the privateer. It admits the capture, the condemnation, and sale, the appeal and reversal, and the order of restitution, but denies that any part of the proceeds of the sale ever came to the hands of the owners of the privateer or either of them, but remained in the hands of the marshal of the Court of Admiralty of New Jersey, who alone is answerable for the same. It avers that Griffin, the commander of the privateer, had probable cause for</strong><br />
<strong>Page 8 U. S. 4</strong><br />
<strong>making the capture, and therefore the owners are not liable.</strong></p>
<p><strong>It denies the jurisdiction of the district Court of Pennsylvania to take cognizance of the question, the same belonging exclusively to the Court of Admiralty of the State of New Jersey and to the court of appeals established by the continental Congress. It denies the jurisdiction of the court as a prize court in any case, and especially in cases of capture made during the British war, and avers that it has no authority to carry into effect a decree of either of those courts established under the old government.</strong></p>
<p><strong>After filing his plea and answer, Carson died and Jennings filed a petition suggesting the death of Carson and charging his executors with assets, and praying that the suit may stand revived against them, upon which a citation issued and the executors appeared and answered generally by a reference to the answer and plea of their testator, and further pleaded that by the law maritime, the law of the land, and the laws and ordinances of the United States, they, as executors, are not liable to be proceeded against in that court for the several matters set forth in the libel, for that they are not answerable for the wrongs and offenses, or the pretended wrongs and offenses of their testator, and also for that courts maritime have not authority to intermeddle with the estates and effects, real or personal, of deceased persons, or to give relief against the same, or to seize or take the same effects or estates in execution, or to imprison the bodies of executors for the default of the testator.</strong><br />
<strong>To these pleas and answers there were general replications.</strong><br />
<strong>On 30 March, 1792, the judge of the district court gave an opinion in favor of its jurisdiction in general cases as a prize court; but on 21 September, 1793, he dismissed the libel on the ground that the district court was not competent to compel the execution of a decree of the late continental court of</strong><br />
<strong>Page 8 U. S. 5</strong><br />
<strong>appeals. This sentence was affirmed in the circuit court on 11f April, 1798, but was reversed by this Court at February term, 1799, so far as the same</strong><br />
<strong>Page 8 U. S. 6</strong><br />
<strong>decreed that the district court had not jurisdiction to carry into effect the decree of the court of appeals, and the cause was remanded to the district court for further</strong><br />
<strong>Page 8 U. S. 7</strong><br />
<strong>proceedings, the respondent being at liberty to contend before that court, as matter of defense to the merits or to the form of proceedings, that the libel should first</strong><br />
<strong>Page 8 U. S. 8</strong><br />
<strong>have been filed in the District Court of New Jersey, but not to make the decision of the judge on that point a ground of excepting to the jurisdiction of the District Court of Pennsylvania, and that costs should await the event of the cause.</strong><br />
<strong>Page 8 U. S. 9</strong><br />
<strong>Upon the second hearing of the cause, on 2 April, 1802, the judge decreed in favor of the libellant for the amount of sales of the sloop and cargo, reduced by the scale of depreciation with interest until two months after the order of restitution by the court of appeals and from the time of the institution of the present suit until the day of final decree, which decree was, on 10 May, 1804, reversed by the circuit court, and the libel dismissed with costs. From which sentence, the libellant appealed to this Court.</strong><br />

When it comes to state-court factual findings, AEDPA has two separate provisions.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size:small;"><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#008000;">(For Austin) </span></strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;" align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:large;"><br />
 UNITED STATES, THE COLLAGE OF CORPORATIONS </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>WE DO NOT HAVE A &#8216;REPUBLIC&#8217; OR THE &#8216;CONSTITUTION&#8217; OF THE &#8216;REPUBLIC&#8217;</strong></p>
<p><strong>WE ARE SIMPLY PRESUMED TO EXERCISE THE FRANCHISE OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA AND THEREBY, BE &#8216;<em>GOVERNED, TAXED, AND DO BUSINESS</em> WITH AN <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">ENORMOUS CORPORATION THAT REFERENCES ITSELF AS THE USA</span></strong></strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong></strong><strong><span style="font-size:medium;"><br />
See the following recorded facts: </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>THE REPUBLIC WAS APPARENTLY COOPTED BY A COUP　MANY YEARS AGO　AND IS　BEING RUN AS A &#8220;FOR PROFIT&#8221;　DICTATORSHIP BY THE LIKES OF THE MICROSOFTS, IBMS, WAL-MARTS, ETC ONLY IT IS CALLED THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (CORPORATION) &#8211; HOW ABOUT WAGING &#8216;MIXEDWAR&#8217; ON THE PEOPLE AND RUNNING DRUGS AND PROSTITUTION AND HUMAN TRAFFICING AND MIND CONTROL AND TAKING OVER ALL THE FORMER &#8216;GOVERNMENTS OF THE STATES, THE MILITARY, THE POLICE, THE NATIONAL GUARD, ETC. AND MAKING THEM ALL IN TO ONE HUGE CORPORATION OWNED AND OPERATED AS A GENOCIDE MACHINE!</strong></p>
<p><strong>See below:</strong></p>
<p><strong>The <a href="http://www.manta.com/mb" target="_blank"><strong><span style="font-size:small;">Manta.com</span></strong></a></strong> <strong>website includes a database of over 63 million US and foreign companies</strong>.　　<strong>That database info is provided by Dunn &amp; Bradstreet (D&amp;B).　　Manta.com will provide preliminary information on each of these millions of companies for free.　If you want more &#8220;in-depth&#8221; info, there’s a fee. But since this article is about &#8220;funny&#8221; stuff and paying fees isn’t fun, let’s run a few free searches and see what we can find.　　You might be surprised.</strong></p>
<p><strong>For example, if you enter <span style="color:#007f7f;">&#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; into the Manta.com search engine, you’ll be whisked to a list of &#8220;7,666 matching US companies&#8221;.</span><span style="color:#ff0000;">　 </span>The first &#8220;company&#8221; on the list is:<span style="color:#ff0000;">　　 </span>&#8220;Government of the United States (US Government) HQ<span style="color:#ff0000;">　 </span>&#8220;the u.s. Capitol Washington DC &#8220;<span style="color:#ff0000;">　　</span>The &#8220;HQ&#8221; stands for &#8220;headquarters&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#007f7f;">When you scroll down the list of other companies below the &#8220;Government of the United States,&#8221; you’ll find &#8220;branches&#8221; like &#8220;Executive Office of the United States Government&#8221; (6 entries), &#8220;United States Department of the Air Force (US Government),&#8221; &#8220;The Navy United States Department of (US Government Naval Reserves),&#8221; and &#8220;United States Court of Appeals For The 11th　Circuit United States Courthouse&#8221;.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>None of that seems particularly surprising (other than the fact that &#8220;this Government&#8221; is a &#8220;for profit corporation&#8221;).　　But the report begins to seem a little strange <span style="color:#007f7f;">under the heading &#8220;About Government Of The United States &#8221; where we read:</span><span style="color:#ff0000;">　 </span>&#8220;government, owner archbishop deric r. mccloud of basilica shrine michigan and 4th ne street washington ,dc&#8221;.　　</strong>　<strong>Does that abbreviated text really indicate that <span style="color:#007f7f;"><strong>the　<em>owner</em>　</strong>of the &#8220;Government Of The United States&#8221; is an　<em>archbishop</em>　named Deric R. McCloud?</span></strong>　 <strong>. . . the &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; <em>owned</em>　by an archbishop?</strong>　　<strong>Apparently, Dunn &amp;</strong> <strong>Bradstreet understood the following:</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;The Pope can abolish any law in the United States. (Elements of Ecclesiastical Law Vol.1 53-54)&#8221; ; and &#8220;The Pope claims to own the entire planet through the laws of conquest and discovery. (Papal Bulls of 1455 and 1493)&#8221; ; and &#8220;The Popes laws are [presumed] to be obligatory on everyone. (Bened. XIV., De Syn. Dioec, lib, ix., c. vii., n. 4. Prati, 1844) (Syllabus, prop 28, 29, 44)&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#007f7f;">And just in case you would think we can’t be referencing　<em>the</em>　&#8221;Government of the United States Inc. ,&#8221; take a gander at the &#8220;Additional Information&#8221; heading and you’ll read: &#8220;all recipients [sic] of federal funds that have any kind of criminal case or felony federal, state, local or served time in prison federal, state, benefits terminate 7/26/10 by barack obama administration.&#8221;　 The reference to &#8220;barack obama&#8221; shows that this entry for &#8220;Government of the United States HQ&#8221; does, indeed, describe the very same &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; that we all so ignorantly love and admire.　　And bear in mind that this &#8220;Government&#8221; and all its various &#8220;branches&#8221; and &#8220;Departments&#8221; are being reported by D&amp;B to be individual,　<em>private</em>　for profit <em>companies</em>. </span></strong><br />
<strong>Go back to the top of the &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; page and click the &#8220;More Info&#8221; tab.　</strong>　　<strong>Under &#8220;Employees (Estimated)&#8221; you’ll note the number to be: &#8220;2,768,886 a<em>t this location　 </em>&#8220;3&#8243;. </strong>Whereas, <strong><span style="color:#007f7f;">2.7 million federal employees sounds about right.　　This enormous number of employees confirms that we’re viewing information on　<em>the</em>　&#8221;Government of the United States &#8221; but if only &#8220;3&#8243; of those millions of employees are &#8220;At this location&#8221; (the &#8220;HQ&#8221;), <span style="text-decoration:underline;">who are the &#8220;chosen 3&#8243;?</span>　　And where, precisely, IS &#8220;this location&#8221;?　　Capitol Hill?　　But where?　　In the Senate chamber?　　The House of Representatives?　　Some cloak room?　 </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Under &#8220;State of Incorporation &#8221; you’ll read &#8220;Information not found&#8221;.　　This could easily indicate that this &#8220;Government&#8221; was never formally &#8220;incorporated&#8221; and acts as headquarters of a massive privateering operation under letters of Marque and reprisal . . . just like the Pirates of Old.</strong>　　<strong><span style="color:#007f7f;">Or it might mean that the information concerning that incorporation is intentionally concealed. However, we can see a clue to the possible date of incorporation for this &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; under the heading &#8220;Years in Business&#8221; which reads &#8220;223&#8243;.　　If the &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; began 223 years ago, there should be a constitution or charter to mark its creation at that time.　 This is A.D. 2010, so &#8220;223&#8243; years ago would be A.D. 1787.</span><span style="color:#ff0000;">　　 </span></strong><strong>But that’s odd. Why?　　Because our current &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; should have been　<em>created</em>　by &#8220;The Constitution of the United</strong> <strong>States &#8221; and therefore　<em>could not have existed</em>　prior to the　<em>ratification</em>　of the Constitution.</strong>　</p>
<p><strong> It should follow, in A.D. 1787, the Constitutional Convention completed the final draft of the Constitution on September 17th.　　That proposed Constitution for a new &#8220;federal government&#8221; was then submitted to the Congress that already existed under the Articles of Confederation (ratified in A.D. 1781).　　The Confederation Congress quickly &#8220;approved&#8221; the proposed Constitution under　Article 13 of the Articles of Confederation　and then sent it out to We the People for <em>ratification</em>. Article VII of the Constitution declares, &#8220;The Ratification of the Conventions of nine States shall be sufficient for the Establishment of this Constitution between the States so ratifying the Same.&#8221;　　I.e., the Constitution (and resulting federal government) could not become effective and operational until it was ratified by at least　<em>nine</em>　of the States of the Union .　 Thus, while the Constitution may have been &#8220;approved&#8221; by the existing Congress in A.D.　<span style="text-decoration:underline;">1787</span>, it could　<em>not</em>　have been established and ordained by We the People until ratified by at least 9 States.　　The 9th　State ( New Hampshire ) did not ratify until June 21st, A.D.　<span style="text-decoration:underline;">1788</span>. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Wikipedia article &#8220;Unites States Constitution&#8221; reports:&#8221;Once the Congress of the Confederation received word of New Hampshire &#8216;s ratification, it set a timetable for the start of operations under the new Constitution, and on March 4,　<span style="text-decoration:underline;">1789</span>, the [new, federal] government　began operations.&#8221;　</strong></p>
<p><strong>Since the Constitution was suppose to have created our modern federal &#8220;Government&#8221; and could not have been ratified by We the People before 1788 (when the 9th　State ratified), <span style="color:#007f7f;">D&amp;B’s report that the &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; began &#8220;223&#8243; years ago (A.D. 1787) can’t be true.　　<span style="color:#007f7f;"><strong>　Similarly, given that the new &#8220;Government&#8221; created by the Constitution was not actually operational until A.D. 1789, the D&amp;B report that this &#8220;Government&#8221; has been &#8220;in business&#8221; since A.D. 1787 also seems mistaken, however, </strong></span><span style="color:#ff0000;">　</span><span style="color:#007f7f;">.&#8221; The People&#8221; does not include you and me. (<a href="http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=case&amp;court=us&amp;vol=32&amp;page=243" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"> <span style="font-size:small;">Barron v. City of Baltimore </span></span></strong></a> 32 U.S. 243)</span></span></strong> <strong><span style="color:#007f7f;">. . . might the framers have been the &#8220;We the people&#8221; referenced? All but a few of the framers being Masons and possibly proceeding with a much larger purpose in the not so distant future.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>In A.D. 2008, I first learned about the Manta.com reports that suggest &#8220;this government&#8221; is some form of conglomerate of &#8220;companies&#8221;, &#8220;branches&#8221; and departments. </strong><strong><span style="color:#007f7f;"><strong><span style="color:#007f7f;">When I first read the D&amp;B &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; report two years ago, Manta.com had a different website format.　　In that earlier format, Manta.com reported that &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; started in &#8220;1787&#8243;.　 In 2008, when I first saw &#8220;1787,&#8221; I knew that either: 1) the D&amp;B data entry clerk made a mistake; or 2) the current &#8220;Government of the United States&#8221; is somehow presumed to have started at least one year (and probably two) before the Constitution itself was ratified and the resulting federal government became operational.　　 I also knew that if the D&amp;B clerk didn’t make a data entry error, that <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">the Manta.com website might have been changed to eliminate evidence that today’s &#8220;Government of the United States&#8221; is not be the same &#8220;Government&#8221; created under the original Constitution ratified by the People in A.D. 1788</span></span></strong></span></strong><span style="font-size:medium;">, s</span>o I downloaded and retained complete copies of about 25 Manta.com website pages for safekeeping.　</span></strong></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">As I’d anticipated, the Manta.com website has since been modified and some information found two years ago has been changed or &#8220;disappeared&#8221;.</span></span></strong></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;"><strong>For example, where Manta used to report that the &#8220;Government&#8221; began in &#8220;1787,&#8221; it now reports that it’s been in business for &#8220;223&#8243; years.　　That’s not big change.　　It’s still possible that the numbers &#8220;223&#8243; and &#8220;1787&#8243; simply reflect some persistent data entry　<em>calculation</em>　error but, given the differences between &#8220;1787&#8243; and &#8220;223,&#8221; the probability of a mere data entry error is reduced.　　It therefore seems increasingly possible that the current D&amp;B report on &#8220;Government of the United States &#8221; is correct when noting that the government of the United States was instituted the year　b<em>efore</em>　the</strong> <strong>Constitution was ratified by &#8220;those&#8221; People. If so, as strange as it sounds,</strong> </span><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">it is therefore conceivable that there　<em>might</em>　well be two editions of our &#8220;Constitution&#8221;:　　1) one　<em>approved</em>　by the Confederation Congress in A.D. 1787; and 2) another,　<em>ratified</em>　by We &#8220;those&#8221;　<em>People</em>　in A.D. 1788.　　The text of both of these &#8220;editions&#8221; of the Constitution would be identical, but the underlying　<em>authority</em>　would be completely different.</span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#007f7f;">Under the Constitution ratified by the　People in A.D. 1788, <em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">the enacting authority and national sovereigns are We the　People</span>.　</em>　Under the　<em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">possible</span></em>　Constitution &#8220;approved&#8221; by Congress in A.D. 1787, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">the enacting authority and national sovereigns would be the　<em>Congress</em></span>.　　If Congress <span style="text-decoration:underline;">were</span> the constitutional sovereign, which it isn’t according to: <a href="http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=case&amp;court=us&amp;vol=110&amp;page=421" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:small;">Julliard v. Greenman, </span></span></strong></a></span>110 U.S. 421, 467, 4 S.Ct. 122, 28 L.Ed. 204</strong> <strong><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:medium;"><strong><span style="color:#007f7f;font-size:medium;">(1884)</span></strong></span></strong> (<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">Congress can exercise no power by virtue of any supposed inherent sovereignty in the general government. Indeed, it may be doubted whether the power can be correctly said to appertain to sovereignty in any proper sense, as an attribute of an independent political community.</span></span></strong></span></strong> <strong>The power to commit violence, perpetrate injustice, take private property by force without compensation to the owner, and compel the receipt of promises to discharge debt in place of money of account, may be exercised, as it often has been, by irresponsible authority, but it cannot be considered as belonging to a government founded upon law. But be that as it may, there is no such thing as a power of inherent sovereignty in the government of the United States. It is a government of delegated powers, supreme within its prescribed sphere, but powerless outside of it. In this country, sovereignty resides in the people, and congress can exercise no power which they have not, by their constitution, entrusted to it; all else is withheld.</strong></p>
<p>　<strong>Whereas, the Constitution was bequeathed to us, as the posterity in the Preamble.　 The Preamble is not just an announcement.　 Webster&#8217;s 1828 defines Preamble:</strong>　</p>
<p><strong>1.　　　 Something previous; introduction to a discourse or writing.</strong></p>
<p><strong>2.</strong>　　　 <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">The introductory part of a statute</span></strong>,<strong> which <span style="text-decoration:underline;">states the reasons and intent of the law</span></strong>.</p>
<p><strong>At this time, nothing could be passed on to an heir without falling under one of the two statutes listed below;</strong></p>
<p><strong> A　Quote from the Statute of Wills, [St. 34 &amp; 35 Hen.　 Vll (1542-1543) Ch.5]　 &#8220;Persons&#8230;shall have full and free liberty, power and authority to give, dispose, will or devise to any person or persons (Except <span style="text-decoration:underline;">bodies politick</span> <span style="color:#ff0000;">[1]</span> <span style="text-decoration:underline;">and corporate</span>) by his last will and testament in writing, or otherwise by any act or acts lawful executed in his life&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Hereditaments could only be passed to a body politic, &#8220;we the people&#8221; and the peoples&#8217; &#8220;posterity,&#8221; by way of Trust, as shown in: The Statute of Uses [St 27 Hen, vlll (1536) Ch.10] &#8221;&#8230;that where any person or persons stand or be seised, or at any time hereafter shall happen to be seised of&#8230; etc., or other hereditaments, to the use, confidence or trust of any other person or persons, or body politic.&#8221;&#8230;.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Constitution cannot be a will, as you can see by the aforementioned statutes, as it passed hereditaments to a body politic.　 The bodies politic are &#8220;we the people&#8221; and the peoples&#8217; &#8220;posterity.&#8221;　 Webster&#8217;s 1828 defines hereditaments as:</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Any species of property that may be inherited:</span> lands, tenements, anything corporeal or incorporeal, real, personal or mixed</strong>, <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">that may descend to an heir</span></strong>.　<strong> <em>Blackstone</em></strong></p>
<p><strong> A corporeal hereditament is visible and tangible; an incorporeal hereditament is an ideal right, existing in contemplation of law, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">issuing out of substantial corporeal property.&#8221;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence,<span style="color:#ff0000;">[2]</span> promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Preamble describes an estate held in trust.　 Don&#8217;t we say that our elected officials hold an office of Public Trust?　 That&#8217;s because the Constitution of the United States created a trust.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Trust is defined by Webster&#8217;s 1828 in three sets of definitions.　 In the first set under number 12, &#8220;trust&#8221; is defined as</strong>:</p>
<p> &#8221;<strong>In law, an estate, devised or granted in confidence that the devisee or grantee shall convey it, or dispose of the profits, at the will of another; an estate held for the　 use of another</strong>.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Webester&#8217;s 1828 defines &#8220;estate&#8221; in 6 as: &#8220;The general business or interest of gov&#8217;ts; hence, a political body; a commonwealth; a republic.　 But in this sense, we now use state.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;"><br />
The Requisites of an Express Trust.　</span></strong></p>
<p> <strong>1.　It must have a competent Settlor and a Trustee. (We the People)</strong></p>
<p><strong> 2.   It must have an ascertainable trust res. <span style="color:#ff0000;">[3]</span> (Blessings of Liberty)</strong></p>
<p><strong>3.　 It must show sufficiently certain beneficiaries.　 (ourselves and our posterity)</strong></p>
<p><strong> 4.　A trust comes into being only upon execution of an intention (or by operation of law and out of necessity due to a constructive FRAUD denial of the people to secure property to themselves due to the manipulation of the right to money of account) and thereby create said trust by or for the party(s) having legal and equitable control of the <span style="text-decoration:underline;">subject matter</span> of the trust.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Our Forefathers were competent Settlers and had equitable control of the subject matter as the representatives of the People.　 The trustees and their duties are defined and established within the Articles of the Constitution.　 The Preamble and Constitution ascertain the trust res being passed on in the phrase, &#8220;the Blessings of Liberty.&#8221;　 The Preamble and the Constitution show sufficient certain beneficiaries in the phrase, &#8220;to ourselves and our posterity.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Preamble state an intention for which the document was created as:　 &#8220;in order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general welfare and secure the Blessing of Liberty.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Does it show an intention to manifest?　 Absolutely.　 &#8220;To ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.&#8221;　</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;An <span style="text-decoration:underline;">express trust,</span> as they sometimes are called, are &#8220;<span style="text-decoration:underline;">direct</span>&#8221; trusts, and are those trust intentionally created by the direct and positive act of the settlor, by some writing, deed, or will, or oral declaration.&#8221;</strong><br />
<strong>Amer. Juris. 2d. Vol 76, §15</strong></p>
<p><strong>Our Forefather were highly educated and knew about Trusts, Hereditaments, Conveyances, Fraud, Wills and Uses.　 <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Their knowledge was implemented in drafting the Constitution, because of the Statute of Frauds.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;[St. 29 Chas. ll (1676) Ch. lll] 1. For prevention of many fraudulent practices, &#8230;6. And moreover, no devise in writing of or hereditaments&#8230;</strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>shall&#8230;be revocable, otherwise than by <span style="color:#007f7f;">some other will or </span><span style="color:#ff0000;">codicil</span><span style="color:#007f7f;"> in writing</span></strong>, <strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">(Form 1040 by definition is a Codicil)</span> or other writing declaring the same</strong></span><strong>&#8230; (2) but all devises and bequest of lands and tenements shall remain and continue in force, until the same be burned, cancelled, torn or obliterated by the testator, or his directions, in manner aforesaid, or <span style="color:#0000ff;">unless the same be altered by some other will or <span style="text-decoration:underline;">codicil </span>in writing, or writing of the devisor, signed in the presence of three or four witnesses, declaring the same; <span style="text-decoration:underline;">any former law or usage to the contrary notwithstanding</span>.&#8221;</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Just for emphasis, this underlined phrase shows that any will or trust created under any former law does not apply here.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Statute Against Collusive and Fraudulent Conveyances prohibited</strong> <strong>any underhanded intent behind a conveyance of hereditaments.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;[St. 27 Eliz l (1585) Ch. 4] &#8220;the Queens most excellent Majesty&#8230;(etc.) and Bodies Politick,&#8230; may have, incur and receive great loss and prejudice by reason of fraudulent conveyances, (and etc.) (by way of) &#8230;(3) secret intent of the parties the same to be to their own proper use, and at their free disposition, (4) coloured nevertheless by <span style="text-decoration:underline;">fained countenance and shew of words and sentences,</span> as though the same were made bona fide, ..&#8221; &#8220;said former conveyance, &#8230;Shall be deemed, taken and adjudged to be <strong>void, frustrate, and of none effect, by virtue and force of this present act.</strong>&#8220;</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">The &#8220;Bill of Rights&#8221; was not included in the Constitution (1787), because it also created an Independent Trust Res and was added four years later in 1791. <span style="color:#007f7f;">It was annexed to the Constitution by way of codicil, as the amended intentions or afterthought of our Forefathers.　 When our Forefathers died, it became &#8220;Their Will.&#8221;　 Webster&#8217;s 1828 defines &#8220;<strong>codicil</strong>&#8221; as: &#8220;<strong>A writing by way of <span style="text-decoration:underline;">supplement to a will</span></strong>.&#8221;</span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Webster&#8217;s 1828 defines</strong> &#8220;<strong>will</strong>&#8221; <strong>in two sets of definitions.　 In the first</strong> <strong>set, under number 1 and 8 &#8220;will&#8221; is defined as:</strong></p>
<p> 1.　 <strong>&#8220;That <span style="text-decoration:underline;">faculty of the mind</span> by which <span style="text-decoration:underline;">we determine either to do or forbear an action</span>: the faculty which is exercised in deciding, among two or more objects, which we shall embrace or pursue.　　 <span style="text-decoration:underline;">The will is directed or influenced by the judgment</span>. The understanding or reason compares different objects, which operate as motives; the judgment determines which is preferable, and <span style="text-decoration:underline;">the will decides which to pursue</span>.　 In other words, we reason with respect to the value or importance of things; we then judge which is to be preferred; and <span style="text-decoration:underline;">we will to take the most valuable</span>.　 These are but different operations of the mind, soul, or intellectual, part of man.　 Great disputes have</strong> <strong>existed respecting</strong> <strong>the</strong> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">freedom of the will</span></strong>.　</p>
<p><strong>8.　 Testament; the disposition of a man&#8217;s estate, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">to take effect after his death</span></strong>.　 <strong>Wills are written, or nuncupative, that is, verbal.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Under Art.V of the Constitution are the procedures for any additional amendments to be added to the original Constitutional Trust</strong>.　</p>
<p><strong>The &#8220;Bill of Rights&#8221;　was the amended intentions of our Forefathers to place further restrictive clauses and limitations upon the gov&#8217;t.　 These were added four years later, which would be necessary to show that a trust had already been created</strong>.　</p>
<p><strong>It&#8217;s clear our Forefather drafted the Constitution with the intention of creating a trust.　 This Union of States created an Estate, a Republic-In-Form of Government, held in trust, to be passed on to the posterity.</strong>　 <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">The Constitution is our legacy and　we are the beneficiaries.　 It was bequeathed to us, as the posterity,　in the Preamble. </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>The Constitution created a fourteenth government, which is just as foreign to the thirteen original states, as they are foreign to each other.　 This 14th government was set up under Roman Civil Law, as　an international entity.　 It had to be set up this way in order to deal with the rest of the world commercially.　 The entire world is being regulated under Roman Civil Law by　the international banksters, and with the changing of words and phrases aka terms of art, America has been duped into accepting this same form of international treatment</strong>. <strong>(We are not taxpayers, we are &#8220;treated&#8221; as taxpayers!)</strong><br />
<strong>We hold from God the gift which includes all others.　 This gift is the natural right to our independent life &#8212; physical, intellectual, and moral life.　 But life cannot maintain itself alone.　 The Creator of life has entrusted us with the responsibility of preserving, developing, and perfecting that gift.<br />
In order that we may accomplish this, He has provided us with a collection of marvelous faculties.　 And He has put us in the midst of a variety of natural resources.　 By the application of our faculties to these natural resources we convert them into products, and use them.　 This process is necessary in order that life may prosper and run its appointed course.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Life, liberty, and property do not exist because men have made law.　 On the contrary, it was the fact the life, liberty, and property existed beforehand those caused men to make laws in the first place.　</strong></p>
<p><strong>Yes, this conjecture sounds like another howling conspiracy theory but, even so, since the Constitution wasn’t ratified until 1788 and the resulting government didn’t become operational until 1789, D&amp;B’s report that the government began &#8220;223&#8243; years ago and/or began in &#8220;1787&#8243; can’t be accurate.　　It seems odd that an entity as professional a D&amp;B would make such a peculiar error.　　 It’s also curious that D&amp;B describes the</strong></p>

<p><strong>You&#8217;re Not a &#8216;Citizen&#8217; Under the Internal Revenue Code.

<strong>　</strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong>A BILL</strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong></strong><strong>To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to tax bona fide residents of the District of Columbia in the same manner as bona fide residents of possessions of the United States Inc. </strong></p>
<p><strong>Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled,</strong><br />
<strong>SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.</strong><br />
<strong>This Act may be cited as the ‘No Taxation Without Representation Act’.</strong><br />
<strong>SEC. 2. FINDINGS.</strong><br />
<strong>The Congress finds the following:</strong><br />
<strong>(1) The phrase ‘no taxation without representation’ was a rallying cry of many American colonists during the period of British rule in the 1760s and early 1770s. The slogan gained widespread notoriety after the passage of the Sugar Act on April 5, 1764.</strong><br />
<strong>(2) American colonists increasingly resented being levied taxes without having actual legislators seated and voting in Parliament in London. The idea that there should be no taxation without representation dated back even further. Benjamin Franklin stated, ‘it is suppos’d an undoubted Right of Englishmen not to be taxed but by their own Consent given thro’ their Representatives.’</strong><br />
<strong>(3) This issue became even more defined in 1765 with the passage of the Stamp Act which was the first true attempt to levy a direct tax on the American colonies. Ultimately the tax was repealed, but the idea of no taxation without representation persisted.</strong><br />
<strong>(4) Article I, section 2, clause 1 of the United States Constitution, states, ‘The House of Representatives shall be composed of Members chosen every second Year by the People of the several States, and the Electors in each State shall have the Qualifications requisite for Electors of the most numerous Branch of the State Legislature.’.</strong><br />
<strong>(5) The Organic Act of 1801 placed Washington, DC, under the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States Congress and people in the District were no longer considered residents of Virginia or Maryland.</strong><br />
<strong>(6) Many in Washington, DC, were immediately opposed to the idea of being taxed without congressional representation and over the years several congressional leaders introduced constitutional amendments to give the District of Columbia voting representation, though none were successful.</strong><br />
<strong>(7) In 1898, Puerto Rico was acquired by the United States and currently has a Resident Commissioner with limited voting rights. Section 933 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 exempts bona fide citizens who are residents of Puerto Rico for the entire taxable year from Federal taxes on income earned in Puerto Rico.</strong><br />
<strong>(8) On March 31, 1917, the United States took possession of the Virgin Islands and in 1927, the territory’s residents were granted citizenship. Under section 932 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, individuals who are bona fide residents of the United States Virgin Islands during the entire taxable year, and who fully pay all income tax liabilities to the United States Virgin Islands, are not subject to Federal income taxes on their income.</strong><br />
<strong>(9) Guam was established as a territory of the United States after the passage of the Guam Organic Act of 1950. Under the provisions of section 935 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, residents of Guam are required to file tax returns with Guam, but not with the United States Federal Government and therefore the residents do not have to pay United States Federal income taxes.</strong><br />
<strong>(10) The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands was established in 1975 after residents decided not to pursue independence, but instead they opted to enter into territory negotiations. The tax treatment of the Northern Mariana Islands is similar to the structure of Guam in that bona fide residents are</strong> <strong>not required to pay Federal income taxes.</strong><br />
<strong>(11) American Samoa, which is technically considered ‘unorganized’ because no Organic Acts have been passed by Congress, is governed by section 931 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. Under this section, bona fide year-round residents are exempt from Federal taxes on income they earn in Samoa, Guam, and Northern Mariana Islands, but are subject to Federal taxes on income earned elsewhere.</strong><br />
<strong>1</strong><strong>(12) In keeping with the early history and democratic traditions of the United States, the principles established in the Constitution, and in conformance with the other territories of the United States which have delegates but no Representative, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">the residents of the District of Columbia should be exempt from paying United States Federal income taxes. (And that would include the fictitious entity named and used to send offers to pay a Federal income tax to you at a Federally crafted address under the ZIP Code scam.</span></strong><br />
<strong>SEC. 3. EXCLUSION FROM GROSS INCOME FOR INCOME FROM SOURCES WITHIN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.</strong><br />
<strong>(a) In General- Subpart D of part III of subchapter N of chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 is amended by adding at the end the following new section:</strong><br />
<strong>‘SEC. 938. INCOME FROM SOURCES WITHIN THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA.</strong><br />
<strong>‘(a) General Rule- In the case of an <span style="text-decoration:underline;">individual </span>who is a bona fide resident of the District of Columbia during the entire taxable year, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">gross income shall not include&#8211;</span></strong><br />
<strong>‘(1) income derived from sources within the District of Columbia, and</strong><br />
<strong>‘(2) income effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business <span style="text-decoration:underline;">by such individual within the District of Columbia.</span></strong><br />
<strong>‘(b) Deductions, etc. Allocable to Excluded Amounts Not Allowable- An individual shall not be allowed&#8211;</strong><br />
<strong></strong><strong>‘(1) as a deduction from gross income any deductions (other than the deduction under section 151, relating to personal exemptions), or</strong><br />
<strong>‘(2) any credit, properly allocable or chargeable againstamounts excluded from gross income under this section.</strong><br />
<strong>‘(c) Bona Fide Resident and Other Applicable Rules- For purposes of this section, rules similar to the rules of section 876, 937, 957(c), 3401(a)(8)(D), and 7654 shall apply.’.</strong><br />
<strong>(b) Clerical Amendment- The table of sections for subpartD of part III of subchapter N of chapter 1 of such Code is amended by adding at the end the following new item:</strong><br />
<strong>‘<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Sec. 938. Income from sources within the District of Columbia.’. (The &#8220;Buck Act&#8221; would appear to apply in this case as a jurisdictional nexus tying the several states and all Federal fictions to the District of Columbia and remember they are taxing the &#8220;Fiction&#8221; they are not taxing you in the &#8220;Flesh&#8221;!.)</span></strong><br />
<strong>(c) Effective Date- The amendments made by this section shall apply to taxable years ending after the date of the enactment of this Act.</strong><br />
<strong>Whereas, no man or woman can be a Citizen, National or state Citizen either.　　 Those titles are all reserved for the legal entity/person.</strong></p>

<strong>Surely it is an impossibility.　　 People will say, no, the U.S. is a country&#8230;but that is the　<span style="color:#0000ff;">u</span>nited States of America and that is NOT how it reads on any form, application or document.　　<em>People need to understand just who they are and who they are supposedly &#8220;voting&#8221; for.　　 It is the President /CEO of the U.S. corporation.<a href="  www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode28/usc_sec_28_00003002----000-.html　　　　　 " target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"> <span style="font-size:small;">28 USC 3002 (15) A</span></span></strong></a><br />

<strong>Do you recall this line　below　in the movie, &#8220;The Interpreter&#8221;?　　(starring Nicole Kidman &amp; Sean Penn).　Well, the truth is often revealed in movies, just people don&#8217;t　<em>see</em>　or　<em>hear</em> it for what it&#8217;s sharing.　 A great example of an allegory movie was &#8220;Wizard of Oz&#8221; – read this link:<span style="text-decoration:underline;">http://freedom-school.com/the_wizard_of_oz.pdf</span><span style="color:#0000ff;">　</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Despite all the flags on First Avenue, there are no nations any more, only companies &#8211; international companies. lt&#8217;s where we are. lt&#8217;s what we are&#8221;.　&#8211; <span style="color:#7f007f;">Kuman-Kuman to Sylvia Broome in the movie &#8220;The</span><span style="color:#7f007f;font-size:small;"><span style="color:#7f007f;font-size:small;"> Interpreter&#8221; in reference to the United Nations on First Avenue at 46th St.　in New York</span></span><span style="color:#7f007f;">.　</span></strong><strong>&#8230;　incidentally, the tagline for the film: 　The truth needs no translation.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Now for some information about the NAME.　 Conversion goes　much deeper than the monetary issue, as it is EVERYTHING the banksters　do.　　 Conversion means altering its nature.　 Thus from a living being to a corporate entity&#8230;..from man/woman to a PERSON.　 Conversion using admiralty / maritime laws so all is in (the tight little &#8220;box&#8221;) of commerce.　　　Conversion from　Patrick Bellringer　(living　man) to　PATRICK BELLRINGER　(legal entity).　　　</strong></p>
<p><strong>Bellringer　is　actually 　just the family name, but is used along with the birth date to capture jurisdiction if One does not know　that you&#8217;re　being asked to &#8220;volunteer&#8221; as an indentured　&#8221;bond servant&#8221; person　to the corporate system/scheme.　　</strong></p>
<p><strong>Some attorneys say this &#8220;strawman&#8221; issue is nonsense, yet I hold my form and merely state facts.　　 It all relates　in　the conversion to　the fictitious term of art known as the &#8220;PERSON</strong><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">.&#8221; You can’t become a &#8220;Person&#8221; but you will be &#8220;Presumed&#8221; to &#8220;Animate&#8221; and thereby &#8220;join&#8221; with the fiction for jurisdictional purposes.　 </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Just take a look at the state issued driver license, passport, any and all commercial　invoices, bills, plane tickets, etc.,　 all name the　legal　entity.</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">　 People ignorantly sign forms that　declare they are a &#8220;U.S. Person&#8221;. The U.S. is a corporation, not a country by definition.　Americans are enslaved by　ignorance as well as their arrogance.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#000099;">Common usage of　the　word &#8220;person&#8221;　is　&#8211;　a &#8220;human being&#8221; &#8211;　 However, legal codes/statutes define it this way:　&#8221;Person&#8221; means an individual, corporation, partnership, association, firm, or other legal entity.　 That nails it right there&#8230;.<span style="text-decoration:underline;">or other</span> legal entity.　　So then　a &#8220;person&#8221; is a legal entity, NOT a living breathing　biological man or a woman.　　Use of the word &#8220;individual&#8221; confuses people, but it is simply a legal entity disguised as a man or woman.　 How may　a man or woman be considered the same as a corporation or any other legal entity?　 Can&#8217;t happen.　 Impossible.　</span></strong><strong><span style="color:#00007f;">&#8220;<span style="text-decoration:underline;">person</span>&#8221; <span style="text-decoration:underline;">is a word of the Private Civil Law</span>, and a &#8220;<span style="text-decoration:underline;">man</span>&#8221; <span style="text-decoration:underline;">is a word of nature</span>.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#000099;">This one word　&#8221;PERSON&#8221;　is the crux of control over the people.　　 If you consider yourself a person or U.S.　Citizen/person or sign any paperwork that states that you are such, you are voluntarily accepting that role/status　and control apparatus.　　You are then considered　in their jurisdiction.　　　　</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#000099;"> </span></strong><strong><em>Natural person　vs. artificial person, is just like a green apple vs. red　apple,　go back to the NOUN and drop the adjectives &#8212; still a person, and still an apple.</em>　<em>　 So forget the STRAWMAN issue, because that is the PERSON.　　　A　man/woman　shouldn&#8217;t even be in those private tribunal commercial /prize courts.　 Notice the word &#8220;man&#8221; or &#8220;woman&#8221; which are the creations of God and will not be found anywhere within those legislatively crafted copyrighted statutes either.　</em></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong>True liberty will come once people understand this　and stop volunteering!　　Spread the word　or remain as an indentured servant to the system.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong><strong>&#8220;The nature of true freedom doesn&#8217;t come from a piece of paper, right or privilege, rather it&#8217;s the understanding of &#8220;standing&#8221; as a sovereign man or woman. &#8220;</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;To the Constitution of the United States the term sovereign is totally unknown. There is but one place where it could have been used with propriety. But, even in that place it would not, perhaps have comported with the delicacy of those who ordained and established that Constitution&#8230;They might have announced themselves &#8216;sovereign&#8217; people of the United States: But serenely conscious of the fact, they avoided the ostentatious declaration&#8221; &#8211; <a href="http://supreme.justia.com/cases/federal/us/2/419/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:small;">Chisholm v. Georgia</span></span></strong></a><em> 2 Dall 419, 454, 1 L Ed 440,455</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>The people that live in what was known as the united States of America, fail to realize that they are not living in freedom, if they are under double/triple taxation. Licenses are considered privileges and the law of the land is no longer recognized by the men/women who are supposedly governing.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Much of what has been sold as &#8220;truth&#8221; in govt. and religions are lies, because it is all about control. People have given away their power. For example, people came to America supposedly to get away from the control of the King of England and become sovereigns. That power was taken away again by the deceptive founders through their so called CONstitution which is a controlling document and among other acts. There is not anyone alive today that is a party to that document and that is why　the Bush Admin laughs/mocks it. People also accept the label of persons　(legal entity), and willingly accept benefits/privileges which is not what a sovereign would do. A sovereign controls his/her own functionality and takes full responsibility for his/her actions. That by the way, is what Common Law is all about. But America is NOT under common law! But we do continue to have access to the Natural Right of Men, which is paramount over any terms of art or fictional creations.</strong></p>
<p><strong>By the way, why is it in the Constitution, the words People and Posterity are capitalized?</strong></p>
<p><strong>A capitonym is a word that changes its meaning (and sometimes pronunciation) when it is capitalized, and usually applies to capitalization due to proper nouns or eponyms</strong></p>
<p><strong>PREAMBLE to the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION</strong></p>
<p><strong>We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America</strong></p>
<p><strong>Now the question to ask, were you signatory to that declaration (Constitution) and most importantly, if you think that you are &#8220;covered&#8221; under being one of &#8220;We the People&#8221;, &#8211; guess again, because when they capitalized it, the meaning of the word was changed to reflect a particular group of &#8220;people&#8221;, and the Prosperity was for those future generations to theirs, not yours</strong></p>
<p><strong>Hard core facts &#8212; most of Americans live the life of a bond servant (see any social security card and the CUSIP bond tracking numbers on the back and permits the corporation to trade on your accout, while at the same time, accessing your tax exemption for tax avoidance!). This red number identifies the indentured servants to the Corporation which is running the show/the game/the illusion and they have tricked most people into thinking they are &#8220;free&#8221;, yet they are absolutely not ! The country is under Admiralty Law, of maritime commerce and a law that is recognized as adversarial as well. Time to pull the curtain and reveal the Wizard of Oz?</strong></p>
<p><strong>I suspect the above if addressed on point, may well acknowledge that the Congress has offered remedy from the Federal Income Tax to those who have their head together . . . said Federal Tax also known as &#8220;The District of Columbia Franchised Income Tax Act.&#8221;</strong></p>

<div>
<p align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:large;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">Intervention – Challenge the Validity of the<br />
Law by Demanding Certification.</span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong>According to Legal Research, &#8220;Every state probably has somewhere in its codes the process to have state law certified as constitutional&#8221;. See references below for Federal, Florida, California and Oregon laws on the subject of Intervention and such challenges.</strong></p>
<p><strong>There is a mechanism in the law that allows you to make a constitutional challenge through the back door when involved in the courts. I don&#8217;t believe you can ever successfully argue in the administrative process, as it is a traverse into a (private law) trap by fraud in the inducement. The powers that be made a very big mistake when they allowed, even encouraged the belief that the constitution is alive and well. The attorney general of every state can be subpoenaed into a courtroom to testify to the constitutionality any act or omission you are charged with violating. Every codified law must also be certified as constitutional by the supreme court of the state before it can be implemented. (Implementing regulations displayed within [pairs of brackets] make it clear the said regulations have been omitted and thereby, the act or statute cannot be unilaterally imposed.) Employing this understanding defeats every act or statute presented for acceptance. Generally all cases will be dismissed (or abandoned) rather than have the fraud exposed. This is particularly true when addressing bonds being issued in the defendants name by the clerk of the court that go to extortion of the defendants credit for the purpose to monetize the said bonds.</strong></p>
<p><strong>THE REMEDY:</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8216;But there is another description of government, called also by publicists a government de facto, but which might, perhaps, be more aptly denominated a government of paramount force. Its distinguishing characteristics are:</strong></p>
<p><strong>(1) that its existence is maintained by active military power within the territories, and against the rightful authority of an established and lawful government; and</strong></p>
<p><strong>(2) that while it exists it must necessarily be [229 U.S.416, 429] obeyed in civil matters by private citizens who, by acts of obedience rendered in submission to such force, do not become responsible, as wrongdoers, for those acts, though not warranted by the laws of the rightful government. Actual governments of this sort are established over districts differing greatly in extent and conditions. They are usually administered directly by military authority, but they may be administered, also, by civil authority, supported more or less directly by military force.&#8217;</strong><br />
– <a href="http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=case&amp;court=us&amp;vol=75&amp;page=1" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:small;">Thorington v. Smith,</span></span></strong></a> <strong>8 Wall. 1, 9, 19 L. ed. 361, 363.</strong></p>
<p><strong>I spent all day yesterday researching the above case. I have come to the conclusion that we are indeed under the jurisdiction of a military authority, administered by civil authority, and the courts run America. It goes all the way back to before the Revolution. International treaties, codified into law, are superior to domestic law, (as stated by the Supreme Court) starting at the time of the Revolution. (No transfer of American soil from the Crown) The colonies were British (Crown) corporations. Washington D.C. became the Mother Corp. and the colonies became her Inc&#8217;s. Peace was never declared after the civil war, and we are still functioning under the war powers. This explains why we don&#8217;t win in the courts.</strong> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">The national Constitution has been suspended. The states, as Inc’s, also had their Constitutions suspended. </span></span></strong></span>We lost our law, which is supposed to be certified as constitutional before it can be implemented. NO REMEDY. This explains the Rule of Necessity. <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">You cannot claim to be a citizen of a State or the U.S. because neither exist as de jure governments, they are governments de facto.<br />
</span></span></strong></span></strong><br />
<strong>However, since our de facto governments won&#8217;t tell us this, and we are still functioning under the belief that the constitutions are de jure, I still think we can challenge under the <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">&#8220;absence of law is the remedy&#8221; theory.</span></span></strong></span></strong> <strong>Just exactly what is this theory? As I said before,</strong> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">all law has to be certified as constitutional by the state supreme court before it can be implemented.. When charged with violating a law, one should subpoena the certification of the act by the state supreme court. One should also subpoena the Attorney General of the state to testify to the constitutionality of the act.<br />
</span></span></strong></span></strong><br />
<strong>Because the law will not be certified as constitutional, and the state Attorney will not testify to the constitutionality of the act, nothing remains but for the court to dismiss your case. I&#8217;ve used this technique in a firearms violation case in which the defendant, if found guilty, would have been given 40 years in jail. Instead, on the day of his trial, he was called to the bench and told his case has been dismissed.</strong></p>
<p><strong>I believe that all judges, once they reach the appellate level are aware of the above facts. The more arrogant the judge, the more he knows about the government being de facto. The law schools are private, so the lawyers are educated to work for the de facto system, by making sure that the will of the state is imposed upon us. There was a deal struck that, if any person who doesn&#8217;t have a lawyer to bring a case before the courts, and if this person proves the fraud, and speaks the truth about the fraud, the courts are compelled to not allow the case to be cited or published anywhere. The courts cannot afford to have the case freely available in the public archives. This would be evidence of the fraud. That is why you can&#8217;t hire an attorney. An attorney is compelled to uphold the fraud.</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">As I said before, all law has to be certified as constitutional by the state supreme court before it can be implemented. What is the source of this proposition? I think the war powers condition is cumulative since the civil war. I don&#8217;t think WWII ever ended in the States. The judiciary act of 1948 was a wartime act. Peace did not come with Germany and Japan until after Korea was started which is still going on. UN was founded and entered into during WWII. The NC statutes read as if WWII war powers are still in effect. In a civil case, would this not also apply to subpoena the certification of constitutionality?<br />
</span></span></strong></span></strong><br />
<strong>All your questions and statements are irrelevant. I can see that it is difficult for you to accept so simple a truth. If you know the Constitution for the United States and the Constitutions for all the several states have been suspended, you should know you have no constitutional protection in any court in any district in this country.</strong> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">If we are supposed to have constitutional protections and they ceased to exist, we can only use the fact they ceased to exist to defend ourselves. It doesn&#8217;t matter if the court is using admiralty, law merchant, equity, or administrative. The government has never come out and made it a statement of fact that we are a de facto nation, with de facto courts, with judges sitting under the rule of necessity, and that we have no remedy in the courts, have they?</span></span></strong></span></strong> <strong>Three things are needed to be classified as a nation under international law:</strong></p>
<p><strong>1. de jure money </strong><br />
<strong>2. de jure law </strong><br />
<strong>3. a de jure army</strong></p>
<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">We have none of these. We are a nation de facto, functioning under martial law with a de facto civil system enforced through police power. Is this too simple for you to understand? Your only hope for remedy is to bring this fact into the courtroom and have the court either confirm your claim or dismiss. They will not confirm the facts, for to do so would cause the de facto system to fall apart. Their only option is to dismiss&#8230;</span></span></strong></span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Ladies and Gentlemen:</strong> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">ABSENCE OF LAW IS THE REMEDY.</span> </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>How many times have we been told by a Judge that the Constitution does not exist in his courtroom? He was telling us something very important but we weren&#8217;t listening&#8230; You have to empty your mind and look at &#8220;no law = no remedy.&#8221; <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">If there is no remedy there can be no charges of omission or violating a law crafted by a de facto legislature.</span></span></strong></span></strong> <strong>It is well settled that there MUST be a remedy for every violation of law. YOU CAN&#8217;T find one! The reason is, because no remedy exists. BUT&#8230;..<span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">how often have you challenged the law you are accused of violating as being certified as constitutional by the supreme court of your state? I bet you have never done this. How many times have you subpoenaed the Attorney General of your state to testify to the constitutionality of the act you are charged with violating? NEVER? </span></span></strong></span></strong></p>
<p><strong>ABSENCE OF REMEDY:</strong></p>
<p><strong>As a researcher for many years, it becomes apparent &#8220;absence of law is the remedy.&#8221; No law, no violation or crime. The case below says &#8220;without the remedy the contract may, indeed, in the sense of the law, be said not to exist.&#8221; I think this is important. In tort law, a contract can&#8217;t necessarily stipulate to a remedy other than jurisdiction and who will pay attorney fees.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Where is the law?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Fifty years ago this Court pointed out the essential relationship between rights and remedies.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Nothing can be more material to the obligation than the means of enforcement. Without the remedy the contract may, indeed, in the sense of the law, be said not to exist, and its obligation to fall within the class of those moral and social duties which depend for their fulfillment wholly upon the will of the individual. The ideas of validity and remedy are inseparable, and both are parts of the obligation, which is guaranteed by the Constitution against invasion. The obligation of a contract &#8216;is the law which binds the parties to perform their agreement.&#8217;&#8221;</strong><br />

<p><strong>28 USC&gt; PART VI &gt; CHAPTER 161 &gt; § 2403. Intervention by United States or a State; constitutional question</strong></p>
<p><strong>(a) In any action, suit or proceeding in a court of the United States to which the United States or any agency, officer or employee thereof is not a party, wherein the constitutionality of any Act of Congress affecting the public interest is drawn in question, the court shall certify such fact to the Attorney General, and shall permit the United States to intervene for presentation of evidence, if evidence is otherwise admissible in the case, and for argument on the question of constitutionality. The United States shall, subject to the applicable provisions of law, have all the rights of a party and be subject to all liabilities of a party as to court costs to the extent necessary for a proper presentation of the facts and law relating to the question of constitutionality.</strong></p>
<p><strong>(b) In any action, suit, or proceeding in a court of the United States to which a State or any agency, officer, or employee thereof is not a party, wherein the constitutionality of any statute of that State affecting the public interest is drawn in question, the court shall certify such fact to the attorney general of the State, and shall permit the State to intervene for presentation of evidence, if evidence is otherwise admissible in the case, and for argument on the question of constitutionality. The State shall, subject to the applicable provisions of law, have all the rights of a party and be subject to all liabilities of a party as to court costs to the extent necessary for a proper presentation of the facts and law relating to the question of constitutionality.</strong></p>

<p><strong>IV. PARTIES &gt; Rule 24. Intervention </strong></p>
<p><strong>(a) Intervention of Right.</strong><br />
<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">Upon timely application anyone shall be pemitted to intervene in an action: (1) when a statute of the United States confers an unconditional right to intervene; or (2) when the applicant claims an interest relating to the property or transaction which is the subject of the action and the applicant is so situated that the disposition of the action may as a practical matter impair or impede the applicant&#8217;s ability to protect that interest, unless the applicant&#8217;s interest is adequately represented by existing parties.<br />
</span></span></strong></span></strong><br />
<strong>(b) Permissive Intervention. </strong><br />
<strong>Upon timely application anyone may be permitted to intervene in an action: </strong><br />
<strong>(1) when a statute of the United States confers a conditional right to intervene; or </strong><br />
<strong>(2) when an applicant&#8217;s claim or defense and the main action have a question of law or fact in common. When a party to an action relies for ground of claim or defense upon any statute or executive order administered by a federal or state governmental officer or agency or upon any regulation, order, requirement, or agreement issued or made pursuant to the statute or executive order, the officer or agency upon timely application may be permitted to intervene in the action. In exercising its discretion the court shall consider whether the intervention will unduly delay or prejudice the adjudication of the rights of the original parties. </strong></p>
<p><strong>(c) Procedure. </strong><br />
<strong>A person desiring to intervene shall serve a motion to intervene upon the parties as provided in Rule 5. The motion shall state the grounds therefore and shall be accompanied by a pleading setting forth the claim or defense for which intervention is sought. The same procedure shall be followed when a statute of the United States gives a right to intervene. When the constitutionality of an act of Congress affecting the public interest is drawn in question in any action in which the United States or an officer, agency, or employee thereof is not a party, the court shall notify the Attorney General of the United States as provided in Title 28, U.S.C.,§ 2403. When the constitutionality of any statute of a State affecting the public interest is drawn in question in any action in which that State or any agency, officer, or employee thereof is not a party, the court shall notify the attorney general of the State as provided in Title 28, U.S.C. § 2403. A party challenging the constitutionality of legislation should call the attention of the court to its consequential duty, but failure to do so is not a waiver of any constitutional right otherwise timely asserted. </strong></p>

<p><strong>INTERVENTION 387. </strong></p>
<p><strong>(a) Upon timely application, any person, who has an interest in the matter in litigation, or in the success of either of the parties, or an interest against both, may intervene in the action or proceeding. An intervention takes place when a third person is permitted to become a party to an action or proceeding between other persons, either by joining the plaintiff in claiming what is sought by the complaint, or by uniting with the defendant in resisting the claims of the plaintiff, or by demanding anything adversely to both the plaintiff and the defendant, and is made by complaint, setting forth the grounds upon which the intervention rests, filed by leave of the court and served upon the parties to the action or proceeding who have not appeared in the same manner as upon the commencement of an original action, and upon the attorneys of the parties who have appeared, or upon </strong><br />
<strong>the party if he has appeared without an attorney, in the manner provided for service of summons or in the manner provided by Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 1010) Title 14 of Part2. A party served with a complaint in intervention may within 30 days after service move, demur, or otherwise plead to the complaint in the same manner as to an original complaint. </strong></p>
<p><strong>(b) If any provision of law confers an unconditional right to intervene or if the person seeking intervention claims an interest relating to the property to transaction which is the subject of the action and that person is so situated that the disposition of the action may as a practical matter impair or impede that person&#8217;s ability to protect that interest, unless that person&#8217;s interest is adequately represented by existing parties, the court shall, upon timely application, permit that person to intervene. </strong></p>
<p><strong>388. </strong></p>
<p><strong>In an action brought by a party for relief of any nature other than solely for money damages where a pleading alleges facts or issues concerning alleged pollution or adverse environmental effects which could affect the public generally, the party filing the pleading shall furnish a copy to the Attorney General of the State of California. The copy shall be furnished by the party filing the pleading within 10 days after filing.</strong></p>

<p><strong>28.050 Enumeration not exclusive. </strong><strong>The enumeration in ORS 28.010 to 28.040 does not limit or restrict the exercise of the general powers conferred in ORS 28.010, in any proceedings where declaratory relief is sought, in which a judgment will terminate the controversy or remove an uncertainty. [Amended by 2003 c.576 §303]</strong></p>
<p><strong>28.060 Discretion of court to refuse judgment. </strong><strong>The court may refuse to render or enter a declaratory judgment where such judgment, if rendered or entered, would not terminate the uncertainty or controversy giving rise to the proceeding.

<p style="text-align:left;" align="center"> </p>
<p align="center"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>AFFIDAVIT OF UNDERSTANDING re THE ADMINISTRATIVE/</strong></span></p>
<p align="center"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>LEGISLATIVE &#8220;PRIZE&#8221; COURT MUST AFFIRMATIVLY PROVE JURISDICTION</strong></span></p>
<p align="center"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>WHEN RIGHTS</strong></span><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong> ARE RESERVED at UCC 1-308, ARTICLE III STATE COURT MUST DETERMINE CAUSE PURSUANT TO DUE PROCESS TO </strong><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>ESTABLISH</strong> <strong>CAUSE / JURISDICTION</strong></span></span></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;It is well settled in administrative law that: &#8220;It is the accepted rule, not only in state courts, but, of the federal courts as well, that </strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong>when a judge is enforcing administrative law they are described as mere ‘extensions of the administrative agency for superior reviewing purposes’ as a ministerial clerk for an agency</strong>&#8230;&#8221;</span></span></span> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">30 Cal.596; 167 Cal 762</span></strong>. And;</p>
<p align="center"><strong>Apparent agency.</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://law.justia.com/cases/oregon/court-of-appeals/2002/a100452.html" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:small;">Kotera v. Daioh Int&#8217;l U.S.A. Corp,</span></span></strong></a>9509-06556; A100452 (Or. 01/30/2002) (In the absence of agency based on actual authority, plaintiff (FRANCHISE TAX BOARD) was required to produce evidence of apparent agency to support personal jurisdiction over (Defendant). <em>Miller v. McDonald&#8217;s Corp.</em>, 150 Or App 274, 282, 945 P2d 1107 (1997). To establish apparent agency, plaintiff must have offered evidence that (1)　Defendants held out Plaintiff as an agent, and (2) plaintiff justifiably relied on that holding out. <em>See id</em>. at 282-83. Plaintiff alleged neither such &#8220;holding out&#8221; by Defendants nor reliance on plaintiff&#8217;s part. The only evidence of &#8220;holding out&#8221; came from the affidavit submitted by Defendants, which acknowledged that Plaintiff was a director of the corporation. However, no evidence before the trial court established that plaintiff relied on that information in agreeing to the transaction. Accordingly, there was insufficient evidence before the trial court to support an exercise of personal jurisdiction over Defendant, and the trial court erred in denying Defendant&#8217;s motion to dismiss on that ground; </strong></p>
<p><strong>14. Although courts sometimes have used &#8220;apparent authority&#8221; and &#8220;apparent agency&#8221; interchangeably, the distinction is important. &#8220;Apparent agency creates an agency relationship that does not otherwise exist, while apparent authority expands the authority of an actual agent.&#8221; <em>Miller</em>, 150 Or App<em> </em>at 282 n 4. Thus, apparent authority is relevant only if actual agency already has been established. Here, because plaintiff has offered no evidence to establish the <em>existence </em>of an actual agency, apparent authority is not implicated.);</strong></p>
<p><strong>ORCP 21(A) (<em>Defenses and Objections, How presented</em>) (Every defense, in law or fact, to a claim for relief in any pleading, whether a complaint, counterclaim, cross-claim or third party claim, shall be asserted in the responsive pleading thereto, except that the following defenses may at the option of the pleader be made by motion to dismiss: (1) lack of jurisdiction over the subject matter, (2) <span style="color:#0000ff;">lack of jurisdiction over the person,</span></strong>&#8220;<strong>A judge ceases to sit as a judicial officer</strong> <strong>because the governing principals of administrative law provides that courts are prohibited from substituting their evidence, testimony, record, arguments and rationale for that of the agency.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Additionally, courts are prohibited from their substituting their judgments for that of the agency</strong>.&#8221; <a href="http://law.justia.com/cases/federal/appellate-courts/F2/568/284/288456/" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:small;">American Iron and Steel v.

Davis, ADMIN. LAW</span>., P. 95, (CTP, 6 Ed. West’s 1977)&gt;<a href="http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=case&amp;court=us&amp;vol=281&amp;page=464" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"> <span style="font-size:small;">FRC v. G.E.,</span></span></strong></a> 281 U.S. 464; <a href="http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=case&amp;court=us&amp;vol=261&amp;page=428" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:small;">Keller v. P.E.P.,</span></span></strong></a> 261 U.S. 428.</strong> <strong>And; A so-called Municipal or District court that is not a constitutional court is a legislative tribunal.</strong></p>
<p><strong>In speaking on this subject in relation to the Constitution for the united States of America, the supreme Court said: &#8220;The term ‘District Courts of the United States,’ . . . without an addition expressing a wider connotation, has its historic significance. It describes the constitutional courts created under Article III of the Constitution.<span style="text-decoration:underline;"> Courts of the Territories are legislative courts</span></strong>, <strong>properly speaking, and are not District Courts of the United States.&#8221; <a href="http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=case&amp;court=us&amp;vol=303&amp;page=201" target="_blank"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="font-size:small;">Mookini v. United States,</span></span></strong></a> 303 US 201, 205, 58 Sct. 543, 82 Led. 748 ((1938). </strong></p>
<p><strong>The power of the Municipal or District Court is that of the old &#8220;justice of the peace&#8221; courts which were courts of &#8220;limited and special jurisdiction.&#8221; State v. Officer, 4 Or. 180 </strong><span style="color:#ff0000;font-size:medium;">(1871).</span></p>
<p><strong>Inferior tribunals <span style="text-decoration:underline;">are subject to the supervisory control (judicial powers), and must show affirmative proof on the face on the inferior tribunal record to sustain a conviction. </span>&#8220;If the court is . . . of some special statutory jurisdiction it is as to such proceedings an inferior court</strong>, <strong><em>and not aided by presumption of jurisdiction.</em>&#8221; Norman v. Zeiber, 3 Or 198.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Inferior tribunals have no presumption of jurisdiction in their favor and all that need to be done by Petitioner, to throw the burden of proving jurisdiction upon Respondent State<span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">, is to contest the applicability of the inferior tribunals jurisdiction to Petitioner. </span></span></span></span>&#8221; . . . if the record does not show upon its face the facts necessary to give jurisdiction, they will be presumed not to have existed.&#8221; <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Norman v. Zeiber</span>, 3 Or. 198.</strong> <strong>And;</strong></p>
<p><strong>The constitutional rule for inferior tribunals was set down by the Oregon Supreme Court in Evans v. Marvin, 76 Or. 540, 148 P 1119 (1915), a case involving a justice court:&#8221; . . . the constitutional rule that justice courts are of limited jurisdiction. &#8230;their judgments must be sustained affirmatively by positive proof that they had jurisdiction of the cases they attempt to decide.&#8221; Evans v. Marvin, 76 Or. 540, 148 P 119 (1915)</strong>.<strong> And;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Even the de facto Constitution and the State Statutes will clearly show that the <span style="font-size:small;">EXECUTIVE AUTHORITY</span> is vested Solely in the office of the Elected County Prosecutor, Deputy Prosecutor, Special Prosecutor and/or Attorney General&#8217;s Office.</strong></p>
<p><strong>All so called Judges are in fact and law <span style="font-size:small;">EXECUTIVE OFFICERS</span> and that is why the so called <span style="font-size:small;">JUDGE/ADMINISTRATOR CAN PRESUME TO ISSUE A WARRANT FOR YOUR ARREST WHEN YOU FAIL TO APPEAR IN THE AIRSPACE OF &#8220;THIS STATE&#8221; BEING ABOVE THE LAND OF &#8220;THE STATE!&#8221;THAT HAS LEGISLATIVE JURISDICITON.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>ALL so called State Court&#8217;s are creatures of Statute created by the <span style="font-size:small;">LEGISLATURE</span> and are merely <span style="font-size:small;">ADMINISTRATIVE AGENCIES</span> which only have the authority or jurisdiction conferred by a Statute.</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>If you search carefully the Senate and House Bills and the 1st Legislative Enactment or Session Law creating the Superior Court&#8217;s in your State, you will find that it says right in your own law books, that ALL your so called State Superior Court&#8217;s are really <span style="font-size:small;">LOWER DISTRICT FEDERAL COURTS!</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>THE PEOPLE HAVE NO STATE JUDICIAL COURT&#8217;S AVALIABLE TODAY! <span style="font-size:small;">&#8220;THIS STATE&#8221;</span> is a de facto <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">FEDERAL MUNICIPAL CORPORATION</span></span></strong></span></strong><strong> and by fraud in the inducement, presents itself as a de jure State, but in fact and law is NOT a State in Original Jurisdiction pursuant to the authority of the 1st Original Judiciary Act wherein the District of Columbia is a de facto for profit copyright private corporation.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;<span style="font-size:small;">WHEREAS, THIS STATE</span>&#8221; is a <span style="font-size:small;">DE FACTO FEDERAL MUNICIPAL CORPORATION</span> under the <span style="font-size:small;">NEW JUDICIARY ACT</span> wherein the <span style="font-size:small;">DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA</span> presumes Equal Footing as a de jure <span style="font-size:small;">STATE</span>.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The issue re the use of the terms of art by the legislative branch within the several states identifying　their legislative acts as in <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#00007f;">&#8220;this state&#8221;</span></span></strong></span></strong> <strong>goes only to &#8220;Definitions&#8221; re the statute . . . should the act(s) not rise to malum se within <span style="text-decoration:underline;">&#8220;the state&#8221;</span> and thereby give notice of a substantive connection to the subject matter as applying to some form of physical damage or substantive contact going to an actual controversy and a real party in interest . . . the statute has no mechanism granting authority to reach the Sovereign.　 Capital crimes therefore are prosecuted by and through the substantive statute as being within &#8220;the state&#8221; when charged.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Generally in a court proceeding you may challenge the implied charging statute by noting:</strong> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#007f7f;">&#8220;The prosecution has apparently only defined the statute as appertaining in&#8221;THIS state&#8221;, however, it appears the prosecution has failed to charge (certified&#8221;) the statute as with in &#8220;THE state&#8221; of Oregon.&#8221;　 This is why the avoidance to certify charging documents going to malum prohibitum . . . as there can be no verifiable charging documents issued and no real party in interest can come forward</span></span></strong></span></strong> . . . <strong>whereas, the statutory prohibition is only defined.</strong></p>

<p align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">Re: Presentment in the nature of a</span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">&#8220;Letter Rogatory.&#8221;</span></strong></p>
<div><strong></strong><strong>This writing is submitted in the nature of a letter rogatory from my court circa 1937, to your court and relates to an apparent and ongoing disparagement of the supposedly unfettered right to remedy and thereby assertion of my private reservation of natural rights at this juncture in time, and as being demonstrably critical to my personal safety and economic well being and addresses the ultimate and individual survival of this native born American. I write this letter as a Man born upon the dry land of this nation and I firmly believe this act of my live birth as being wholly natural and not having arisen as a privilege granted by &#8220;this state&#8221; of the forum and permits me to speak to the subject in question, namely what I suspect and believe to be the procedural portal and remedy for myself in the flesh to access my inherent and thereby secured natural rights pursuant to the reliance upon the aforesaid reservation of rights without prejudice as provided at UCC 1-308. I may at some point in the future require your certification of any statute as being constitutionally valid and which may be relied on to infringe the reservation of my natural rights.</strong></div>
<p><strong><strong></strong>I ask that you read this letter and accompanying documents carefully and that you not dismiss out of hand, my understanding as related to the manner that many of the administrative entities and their respective operatives who are employed by &#8220;this state&#8221;, appear to cast a blind eye on my assertion to open, notoriously and unconditionally reserve my private and thereby natural rights, without prejudice as noted at Oregon Statutes &#8211; Chapter 174 &#8211; Construction of Statutes; General Definitions &#8211; Section 174.030 &#8211; Construction favoring natural right to prevail. Where a statute is equally susceptible of two interpretations, one in favor of natural right and the other against it, the former [natural right] is to prevail (as against the summary infringement of rights employing fraud in the inducement by the &#8220;law merchant.&#8221;)</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS; &#8220;Merchants have no country. The mere spot they stand on does not constitute so strong an attachment as that from which they draw their gains.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#000000;">-Thomas Jefferson to Horatio Gates Spafford, 17 Mar. 1817, cited in Papers 14:221 (1) </span></strong>&#8220;Unless you become more watchful in your States and check this spirit of monopoly and thirst for exclusive privileges you will in the end find that the most important powers of Government have been given or bartered away, and the control of your dearest interests have been passed into the hands of these&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#000000;">President Andrew Jackson, Farewell Address, March 4, 1837 (2)　</span></strong>&#8220;I think we are in a position, after the experience of the last 20 years, to state two things: in the first place, that a corporation may well be too large to be the most efficient instrument of production and of distribution, and, in the second place, whether it has exceeded the point of greatest economic efficiency or not, it may be too large to be tolerated among the people who desire to be free.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#000000;">-Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis, testimony before the Committee on Interstate Commerce, 1911. (102) </span></strong>&#8220;Behind the visible government there is an invisible government upon the throne that owes the people no loyalty and recognizes no responsibility. To destroy this invisible government, to undo the ungodly union between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the task of a statesman.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#000000;">-Teddy Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States, during his 1912 election campaign (104) </span></strong>&#8220;I see in the near future a crisis approaching that unnerves me and causes me to tremble for the safety of my country. . . .corporations have been enthroned and an era of corruption in high places will follow, and the money power of the country will endeavor to prolong its reign by working upon the prejudices of the people until all wealth is aggregated in a few hands and the Republic is destroyed.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#000000;">-U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, Nov. 21, 1864, from a letter to Col. William F. Elkins (3)</span></strong>Due to the above referenced circumstance causing the country to move to rapid deterioration, I have made a personal determination to traverse to my God given natural right and proceed out of the &#8220;shadow&#8221; of the fictional creations crafted by &#8220;this state&#8221; and will not animate such entities in a subservient nature.</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS<strong><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#000000;">, it would appear the majority of the operatives of &#8220;this state&#8221; be it out of ignorance, indifference or extreme prejudice completely refuse to acknowledge such assertion of the natural right as clearly acknowledged within the Oregon Constitution and the Oregon Revised Statutes. Unfortunately, the problem seems to go to an insensitive attitude or perception among many government employees, agents and those exercising the administrative police powers at article I and article II administrative tribunals while relying wholly upon the Administrative Procedures Act for their authority and presume a waiver of my substantive Due Process rights. Said employees of the state of the forum see this circumstance as an &#8220;us&#8221; vs. &#8220;them&#8221; contest and perceiving the people as being the more or less ignorant masses who are presumed to be statutorily captured and thereby, the involuntary source of funding for the public employee’s regular paychecks, benefits and assorted perks.</span></strong></strong>Said people dare not threaten the operative’s privileged well being by reserving the right to access their natural right, which could go to the economic detriment of &#8220;this state&#8221; and its privileged public [servants].</strong></p>
<p><strong>Another prime example lies in &#8220;Policing for Profit&#8221; to wit: </strong><strong>&#8220;Policing for Profit&#8221; Report Documents the Nationwide Abuse of Civil Forfeiture</strong></p>
<p><strong>Each State &amp; Feds Graded on Forfeiture Laws &amp; Practice; Only Three States Earn Grades of B or Better. It&#8217;s called policing for profit and it&#8217;s happening all across America.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Police and prosecutors&#8217; offices seize private property&#8211;often without ever charging the owners with a crime, much less convicting them of one&#8211;then keep or sell what they&#8217;ve taken and use the profits to fund their budgets.</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong>And considering law enforcement officials in most states don&#8217;t report the value of what they collect or how that bounty is spent, the issue raises serious questions about both government transparency and accountability.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Under state and federal civil asset forfeiture laws, law enforcement agencies can seize and keep property suspected of involvement in criminal activity. </strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong></strong><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">Unlike criminal asset forfeiture, however, with civil forfeiture, a property owner need not be found guilty of a crime&#8211;or even charged&#8211;to permanently lose her cash, car, home or other property. </span></span></strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong></strong> <strong>According to the Institute for Justice&#8211;whose fight against eminent domain abuse raised that issue to national prominence</strong>&#8211;<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">civil asset forfeiture is one of the worst abuses of property rights in our nation today. </span></span></strong></span>The Institute for Justice today released a first-of-its-kind national study on civil forfeiture abuse. The report&#8211;Policing for Profit: The Abuse of Civil Asset Forfeiture (http://www.ij.org/PolicingForProfitPDF) is the most comprehensive national study to examine the use and abuse of civil asset forfeiture and the first study to grade the civil forfeiture laws of all 50 states and the federal government. The report finds, not surprisingly, that by giving law enforcement a direct financial incentive in pursuing forfeitures and stacking the legal deck against property owners, most state and federal laws encourage policing for profit rather than seeking the neutral administration of justice. (For additional resources on this report, visit: http://www.ij.org/PolicingForProfit. For a brief video on this topic, visit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hytkAaoF2k&amp;feature=player_embedded.)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Government at every level is in on the take and the problem is growing. For example, in 2008, for the first time in its history, the Department of Justice&#8217;s forfeiture fund topped $1 billion in assets taken from property owners and now available to law enforcement. State data reveal that state and local law enforcement also use forfeiture extensively:</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong>From 2001 to 2002, currency forfeitures alone in just nine states totaled more than $70 million. Considering this measure excludes cars and other forfeited property as well as forfeiture estimates from many states for which data were unreliable or that did not make data available for those years, this already-large figure represents just the tip of the forfeiture iceberg.</strong><strong><br />
</strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">Laws Stacked Against Property Owners</span></strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong>The report demonstrates that legal procedures make civil forfeiture relatively easy for most governments and difficult for many property owners to fight. The vast majority of states and the federal government use a standard of proof&#8211;what is needed to successfully prosecute a forfeiture action&#8211;lower than the &#8220;beyond a reasonable doubt&#8221; standard required to prove an individual was guilty of the criminal activity that supposedly justified the taking of his property. Given that situation, it is not surprising that upwards of 80 percent of forfeitures at the federal level occur absent a prosecution. Likewise, many jurisdictions provide an &#8220;innocent owner&#8221; defense that allows owners to get their property back if they had no idea it was involved in a crime. But in most places, owners bear the burden of establishing their innocence.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Americans are supposed to be innocent until proven guilty, but civil forfeiture turns that principle on its head,&#8221; said Institute for Justice Senior Attorney Scott Bullock, a co-author of the report. &#8220;With civil forfeiture, your property is guilty until you prove it innocent.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Grading Forfeiture Laws and How Government Evades Them</strong></p>
<p><strong>In Policing for Profit, IJ grades each state on its forfeiture laws and other measures of abuse. Only three states (Maine, North Dakota and Vermont) earned a grade of B or better. Maine earned the highest grade, an A-, largely because all forfeiture revenues go to the state’s general fund, not directly into law enforcement coffers. On the other end of the spectrum, states like Texas and Georgia both earned a D- because their laws make forfeiture easy and profitable for law enforcement&#8211;with 90 and 100 percent of proceeds awarded to the agencies that seized the property.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Federal forfeiture law makes the problem worse with so-called &#8220;equitable sharing.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Under these arrangements, state and local officials can hand over forfeiture prosecutions to the federal government and then receive up to 80 percent of the proceeds&#8211;even when state law bans or limits the profit incentive. Equitable sharing payments to states have nearly doubled from 2000 to 2008, from a little more than $200 million to $400 million.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Our results show that law enforcement is acting in pursuit of profit: Agencies are using federal law as a loophole to circumvent more restrictive and less profitable state laws,&#8221; said Marian Williams, Ph.D., assistant professor of government and justice studies at Appalachian State University and a co-author of the report. &#8220;This finding is consistent with a growing body of scholarly research, news reports and even testimonials from law enforcement officers about civil asset forfeiture practices.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Six states earned an F and 29 states receive a D for their laws alone. Lax federal laws earn the federal government a law grade of D-. Eight states receive a B or higher for their laws: Indiana, Maine, Maryland, Missouri, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio and Vermont. But extensive use of equitable sharing pulls down the final grades of five of those states: Indiana (C+), Maryland (C+), Missouri (C+), North Carolina (C+) and Ohio (C-). The lowest-graded states overall, combining both poor laws and aggressive use of equitable sharing, are Georgia, Michigan, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia. Each received overall grades of D-.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Policing for Profit was co-authored by IJ’s Scott Bullock and criminal justice researchers Drs. Marian Williams and Jefferson Holcomb of Appalachian State University and Tomislav Kovandzic of the University of Texas at Dallas. The university professors examined equitable sharing data and found clear evidence that law enforcement is acting in pursuit of profit. When state laws make forfeiture harder and less profitable, state and local law enforcement engages in more equitable sharing to circumvent the state laws. New York, for example, has an average grade for its forfeiture laws as rated by IJ&#8211;but is one of the most aggressive states for equitable sharing, earning it a D.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Bullock said, &#8220;If you want reforms that will end policing for profit, you must recognize two realities. First, states should not incentivize forfeiture through laws that make it easy and profitable, as most do. But second, even when those laws are tightened, the research findings are clear: Police are using equitable sharing through the federal government as a loophole to pursue forfeitures that under state law wouldn&#8217;t be allowed or wouldn&#8217;t provide as much return. The only way, therefore, to end this growing and unaccountable use of government power is through real reforms that truly remove the profit motive and protect innocent citizens.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Institute for Justice recommends that, first, law enforcement should be required to convict people before taking their property. Law enforcement agencies could still prosecute criminals and forfeit their ill-gotten possessions&#8211;but the rights of innocent property owners would be protected. Second, police and prosecutors shouldn&#8217;t be paid on commission. To end the perverse profit incentive, forfeiture revenue must be placed in a neutral fund, like a state&#8217;s general fund. It should also be tracked and reported so law enforcement is held publicly accountable. Finally, equitable sharing must be abolished to ensure that when states act to limit forfeiture abuse, law enforcement cannot evade the new rules and continue pocketing forfeiture money.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Police and prosecutors should not be profiting at the expense of private</strong> <strong>property rights, and the Institute for Justice will use every tool at our disposal to expose this injustice and bring it to an end,&#8221; said IJ President and General Counsel Chip Mellor.</strong></p>
<p><strong>As a Belligerant Claiment proceeding in accordance with my Natural right and standing as a Man upon the dry land, I make the following Declaration for cause:</strong></p>
<p align="center"><strong>AFFIDAVIT OF TRUTH AND UNDERSTANDING</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong>It is well settled the Constitution is not a defense in &#8220;satisfaction and accord&#8221; commercial venture unless &#8220;dishonor&#8221; of negotiable instrument is in dispute or fraudulently represented. If no contract or related controversy exists, there cannot be an &#8220;action&#8221; to force acceptance of obligation if the Citizen remains In Propria Persona upon a license or summons.</strong></p>
<p><strong>In Propria Persona however, will cause to be added upon all presented instruments, signed by a transferror agent or not, will evidence the following; &#8220;With Reservation of all Rights, Remedies and applicable Treaties Without Prejudice UCC 1-308,&#8221; and will be written above my blue wet ink signature, and thereby, reverts the burden of proof and places the implied terms upon the agency or its agent and thereby accessing Article III rights as so reserved. Individual terms are non-negotiable with agent/police power and must be accepted. Whereas, Article III protection is afforded by the very statute intended to subject myself to the jurisdiction of commercial agency for said agency is non-assumpsit. The agency charter must follow Uniform Commercial Code to the letter.</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong>Black&#8217;s Law 5th : Non-assumpsit. &#8220;The general issue in the action of assumpsit; as being a plea by which the defendant avers that &#8220;he did not [knowingly] undertake or promise as [agency] alleged.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong><strong></strong>When this Man becomes aware of any potential controversy regarding agency practice, I will protect my In Propria Persona American Citizenship status by writing/signature as &#8220;required&#8221; upon all &#8220;unconscionable&#8221; units evidencing, Without Prejudice UCC 1-308, which will render the unit non-assumpsit and reserves Rights upon the said instrument. The non-assumpsit does not grant &#8220;satisfaction and accord&#8221; to the agency. Thereby no expectation or &#8220;promise&#8221; is presumed at UCC 3-104.3.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Regarding the Penumbra Doctrine as defined in Black’s Law 5th. &#8220;The implied powers of the federal government predicated on the Necessary and Proper Clause of the U.S. Const., Art. I, Sec.8 (18), permit one implied power to be engrafted on another implied power.&#8221;</strong> <a href="http://caselaw.lp.findlaw.com/scripts/getcase.pl?navby=case&amp;court=us&amp;vol=91&amp;invol=367"><strong><span style="font-size:small;">Kohl v. U.S., 91 U.S. 367 (1875) 23 L.Ed. 449. </span></strong></a></p>
<p><strong>This is a &#8220;stare decisis&#8221; or bench statute and does not apply to Article III Judicial Power or myself as a &#8220;natural born American Citizen&#8221; of the respective land. Article I Legislative and Article II Executive are the implied powers which are engrafted at the &#8220;inferior&#8221; Fed/State of the forum court. A contract of corporate cause from Article I delict gives police power to agency via Article II Executive and puts the burden on the Citizen to prove (a negative) that he has not violated some form of agreement. The Penumbra Doctrine however, does not include Article III, which is not an &#8220;implied&#8221; power.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Article I, Sec. 8 Cl. (1), &#8220;The Congress shall have the power to lay and collect Taxes, Duties, and Impost and Excises.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>None of these constitute wages or Right to employment and thereby agency License. Neither is Congress authorized to delegate tax authority to any of the other &#8220;implied powers.&#8221; The Penumbra Doctrine allowed mere &#8220;implied powers&#8221; to be &#8220;engrafted.&#8221; Article II Executive to collect the tax with &#8220;implied&#8221; police power, but no delict to destroy diversity of Citizenship. Article I Legislative is the other &#8220;implied&#8221; power and together causes third party instruments to be merely &#8220;presumed&#8221; to obligate the state Citizen.</strong></p>
<p><strong>These instruments fail to fully disclose their misrepresentation, omission, concealment, secrecy, and are of collusion, fraud in the inducement and conspiracy. The flag of Article II Admiralty is proof of third party Department of Justice Executive, using Article I Legislative statute to dispense Law Merchant procedure to sell the for profit private copyright statute. Third party units are voidable and both inferior powers and are held to prove their jurisdiction to use the police power enabling clauses within their own system charter. See The Clearfield Doctrine.</strong></p>
<p><strong>An Article I witness must verify accuracy and validity of its commercial &#8220;officer of the court&#8221; summons to the proper &#8220;parties.&#8221; Article II Executive must witness to the validity of proper instruments the agency is &#8220;carrying into effect&#8221; and validate the unit&#8217;s application to the proper subject and class subject thereto. Article III Judicial will not be present, only commercial entities are subject to &#8220;procedural&#8221; due process i.e. diminished &#8220;justice.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>All accusers within a commercial forum have a sworn duty as &#8220;officers of the court&#8221; to protect both Articles II and III. All three Separation of Powers are required as witness and officials in a state Court.</strong></p>
<p><strong>A state Court using Federal Rules (FRCP) are of the Penumbra Doctrine and may be made totally &#8220;dead in Law&#8221; by a Citizen who reserves his Article III Rights to state Court pursuant to UCC 1-308.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The agent has been put on &#8220;Notice&#8221; (UCC 1-201.26 &#8220;Color of Law&#8221;) being immune from being held without victim, witness or warrant. The summary agent (statute merchant) must be ameniable to this type of plea from a sovereign American Citizen who must be heard under Article III &#8220;due process&#8221; and related mandated right of unlimited discovery prior to hearing, because even the agent had no jurisdiction to proceed and could be sued by the victim for false persecution, kidnapping and possible Robbery Ashore.</strong></p>
<p><strong>As there is no victim, nor &#8220;verified complaint,&#8221; based upon &#8220;probable cause&#8221; prior to having paid a fine been subjected to Levy or confined to hardship within Federal Rule 12 (b) of the commercial Tribunal.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The police powers have only the power of arrest granted them by their Masters charter. The FBI, IRS, ATF, license bureaus, municipal tax, and police power are all heads from the same dragon, and only differ contractually. If the contract they presume to exist or enforce is &#8220;dishonored&#8221; for my failure to specifically perform. The Bill Of Rights are &#8220;occupied&#8221; by elliptical words of art and Maritime Contract. A commercial action must be met with a commercial response from the agency who by their nature cannot and will not acknowledge the secured Article III due process Rights of the individual who signs their &#8220;one status fits all&#8221; instruments &#8220;unconditionally.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Article II D.O.J. lends its &#8220;implied power&#8221; under the Penumbra Doctrine to execute procedures for collection, which violate the Separation of Powers Doctrine. Should the Citizen not possess knowledge of the transgression, so be it, for the Citizen is presumed to know the Law and may not use any other documents to excuse ignorance.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Subject&#8221;/ignorant citizens are bound to follow procedural rules in civil actions, even if they do not speak the dialect or understand the law. When the Natural state Citizen remains In Propria Persona, Article III Judiciary requires &#8220;probable cause&#8221; to issue or Citizen may not be &#8220;held&#8221; prior to &#8220;indictment&#8221; of The People per the 5th Amendment. A state Citizen is only as free as his knowledge of the elliptical Citizenship devise within agency contract. A state Citizen is not required to follow Federal Rules of Civil Procedure for these Citizens are &#8220;without&#8221; the said jurisdiction. If voluntary assent is subscribed by non-disclosure or fraudulent representation/inducement, the contract is a nullity and &#8220;dead in Law&#8221; when the instrument is brought before the proper Tribunal as &#8220;unconscionable.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Whereas, The Masted Federal flag is warning to all; Maritime Jurisdictional Civil Law will dispense forum &#8220;procedural &#8220;due process to any who enter by contract or &#8220;tacit&#8221; compliance.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The state only has the presumed power over the Citizen when Maritime jurisdiction has been empowered by &#8220;subject matter and in-persona jurisdiction&#8221; as provided at Rule 12 (b) which delict false citizenship and obligates the party as the [ignorant] &#8220;subject&#8221; by fraudulent design.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Federal Rule 12 Defenses and Objections-(b) &#8220;_the following defenses may at the option of the pleader be made by motion: </strong><strong>lack of jurisdiction over subject matter. (commercial &#8220;class&#8221;) </strong><strong>lack of jurisdiction over the person (contracted artificial subject v. natural born) </strong><strong>a motion making any of these defenses shall be made before pleading.</strong></p>
<p><strong>(Administrative level) (h) (3) &#8220;Whenever it appears by suggestion of the parties or otherwise that the court lacks jurisdiction of the subject matter, the court shall dismiss the action.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>WHEREAS; &#8220;Without Prejudice&#8221; UCC 1-308 is by its nature much more than a mere &#8220;suggestion&#8221; or &#8220;request&#8221; when written above your signature. A reservation of Rights activates a dormant right that vitiates the license/summons etc. by placing a non-assumpsit &#8220;condition&#8221; upon the now non-negotiable unit at UCC 3-104.2. The &#8220;promise&#8221; of UCC 3-104.3 is void ab initio and cannot &#8220;make liable&#8221; the &#8220;promise&#8221; under penalty of perjury at UCC 3-104.3. No performance is required for lack of subject matter jurisdiction <span style="text-decoration:underline;">as &#8220;lawful money of the United States&#8221; is not germane to &#8220;relief sought.&#8221; </span></strong></p>
<p><strong>The &#8220;proof of the matter stated&#8221; is contract or lack thereof and a statement of &#8220;Without Prejudice&#8221; UCC 1-308, gives notice that I elect to remain silent&#8221; and thereby, will estoppel the agency and stay the matter at the administrative level. &#8220;Without Prejudice&#8221; is &#8220;notice&#8221; to agency that a &#8220;suggestion&#8221; has been made to deny jurisdiction per Rule 12 (b). &#8220;Color of law&#8221; statutes are very clear and usually devoid of any valid implementing regulation, and thereby, &#8220;the court shall dismiss the action.&#8221; The judge would violate his oath to act in a personal manner to harm anyone, and &#8220;made liable&#8221; and &#8220;obligated&#8221; to the Citizen for violation of said Citizens secured Rights. The court officers 12 (6) &#8220;failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted,&#8221; is fatal. The officers/agent &#8220;service&#8221; of summons would also be flawed if a reservation of Rights were visible above the Citizens signature on license/summons etc., for no indictment, no &#8220;arrest&#8221; by surrogate is admissible.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Supreme Court only &#8220;hears&#8221; what it may under guidelines set forth by the commercial agency bringing action. A knowledgeable state/American Citizen may not be actioned against by &#8220;persons&#8221; of Federal situs, unless they knowingly and with full knowledge regarding the contract via &#8220;unconditional&#8221; negotiable units activated by agency executor at &#8220;promise.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Supreme Court settles &#8220;subject matter&#8221; issues between corporate &#8220;public policy&#8221; and subjects.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The reservation of Rights upon the license/summons, or bill of sale estoppels the collection executor, for &#8220;no verification of negotiability exist&#8221;. None may be &#8220;made&#8221; for you as &#8220;single and one dependant.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Bill of Rights has already been decided as Law and therefore no reason to go to Court unless indicted for probable cause by the People for a &#8220;capital crime.&#8221; Civil actions are not the laws within the jurisdiction of the Bill of Rights, for same may be amended at Congressional delict. <span style="text-decoration:underline;">A state Citizen of Article III may seek the &#8220;original jurisdiction&#8221;of the Supreme Court to certify the statute in question as constitutional.</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Whereas; information, presentment, or any &#8220;mail box policy intimidation&#8221; stands as truth if not rebutted. All Legislated Statutes will be treated as a rebutable presumption and harmful to my in-personam Citizen. Matters that are not what the agency activity is involved with, jurisdiction can be challenged at any time. &#8220;Without prejudice&#8217; UCC 1-308, will stand as rebuttal, &#8216;answer&#8217; and &#8216;discovery&#8217; &#8216;prima facie&#8217; on the Administrative record as notice to &#8216;abate.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Agency gets into much difficulty via fraud should it attempt to raise a &#8220;dead in Law&#8221; issue, without assent.</strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Remedy&#8221; is final within The Uniform Commercial Code. We the People have been given &#8220;limited liability&#8221;out of necessity due to the usurpation of Constitutional &#8216;lawful money.&#8221;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Government hath not the power to repeal The Bill of Rights, even at statute Civil Liberties. Government activity only creates the illusion of sovereignty by our birth in a corporate State hospital per certificate and unconditional contract upon an ignorant minor.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Jurisdiction will be challenged at every issue and will maintain the controversy at the administrative level. The two required jurisdictions of &#8216;personam&#8217; and &#8216;subject matter&#8217; will not be served in the same court, unless the court is Article III. There will be no plea to equity, as equity must only reap equity. A commercial Tribunal must be dealt with commercially, the court will be bound to subject matter only and this American Citizen will retain his &#8216;personam&#8217;. My personam is the &#8216;common Law&#8217; at the Bill of Rights, and pleads no equity.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The rule still stands, when challenged by equity, you must answer with equity. Estopping the matter of equity is pursuant to reservation of all rights &#8220;Without prejudice&#8221; UCC1-308 and is the Remedy because the &#8216;representation&#8217; in-personam reveals the &#8216;discovery&#8217; that no Rights were thereby waived at the Bill of Rights. UCC1-103.6 is equalizer via equity and notice, now the code must be read in harmony with the common Law at the Or. Code.</strong></p>
<p><strong>This section of the Uniform Commercial Code is the only place the Constitution and equity may be joined without &#8216;contempt&#8217; of the tribunal.</strong></p>
<p><strong>A court which presumes that I will appear [in the airspace above], cannot issue a criminal warrant for &#8216;failure to appear&#8217; at corporate bar. &#8216;Without prejudice&#8217;, written above my &#8216;writing/L.S.&#8217; at UCC 3.104.1, destroys the &#8220;unconditional&#8221; requirement at UCC 3-104.2 and &#8216;promise&#8217; is forfeit at UCC 3-104.3. Reservation serves as a bar to all others at &#8216;Obligation of Contract&#8217; that a &#8216;condition&#8217; is prima facie and wanting upon the unit and it is utterly void at Law.</strong></p>
<p><strong>It is &#8216;proclivity of the adversary not to answer&#8217;, so I would not expect the agency to voluntarily offer any information upon the herein referenced understanding of the above unconditional right to remedy. Generally the agency can be expected to play &#8216;ignorant&#8217; and revert to a predictable &#8216;mail box policy&#8217;, and I will answer everything with reservation at UCC 1-308 . The agency must offer their issues in writing under penalty of perjury, sign and mail them to me. Failure of the agency to answer timely on the part of agency is tacit &#8216;estoppel.&#8217; As for phone calls they are &#8216;parol&#8217; and courts will always grant a &#8216;parol&#8217; opportunity to offer an explanation for &#8216;dishonoring&#8217; agency presentment(s) by what must be a &#8216;creditable&#8217; agency phone call.</strong></p>
<p><strong>I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that the foregoing is true and correct; and at all times asserting my reservation of all rights, remedies, and applicable treaties without prejudice UCC 1-308.

<p align="center"><strong>3.　 Warrant must be valid</strong></p>
<p><strong>A constable justifying an imprisonment under a warrant must show that the warrant on its face is legal, and that the magistrate had jurisdiction of the subject-matter. 51 L.R.A. 197,<em> Poulk v.

<p>&#8220;<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">A warrant is regarded as insufficient and thus void if, on its face, it fails to state facts sufficient to constitute a crime</span></span></strong></span></strong>.&#8221;　<em><strong> Wharton’s Crim. Proc.</strong></em><strong>, 12<sup>th Ed., vol. 1, p. 152 (1974).</sup></strong></p>

<p>&#8220;<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">The United States Supreme Court &#8230; stressed the need for ‘individualized review’ to avoid the issuance of ‘rubber stamp’ warrants</span></span></strong></span></strong>.&#8221;　<strong><em> State v. Paulick</em>, 277 Minn. 140, 151 N.W.2d 596 (1967).</strong></p>

<p>&#8220;<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">An illegal arrest is an assault and battery.　 The person so attempted to be restrained of his liberty has the same right, and only the same right, to use force in defending himself as he would have in repelling any other assault and battery</span></span></strong></span></strong>.&#8221;　<strong><em> State v.

<p>&#8220;<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">An arrest without warrant is a trespass, an unlawful assault upon the person &#8230; where one is about to be unlawfully deprived of his liberty he may resist the aggressions of the offender, whether of a private citizen or a public officer, to the extent of taking the life of the assailant, if that be necessary to preserve his own life, or prevent infliction upon him of some great bodily harm</span></span></strong></span></strong>.&#8221;　<strong><em> State v.

<p><strong>&#8220;<span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">But a constable cannot justify handcuffing a prisoner unless he has attempted to escape, or unless it be necessary in order to prevent his doing so</span></span></span>.&#8221;</strong><strong>51 L.R.A. 216.</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">The handcuffing was utterly unlawful.&#8221;</span></span></strong></span></strong>　<strong><em> Osborn v.

<p align="center"><strong>Summary</strong></p>
<p><strong>For a warrant to issue: <span style="text-decoration:underline;">the warrant must be signed </span>with a wet blue ink signature by a sitting judge who must have taken a constitutional oath of office on file and proof of a bond to indemnify the party to be taken into custody;must<span style="text-decoration:underline;"> specifically name the crime</span> committed;</strong></p>

<p><strong>must<span style="text-decoration:underline;"> name the party </span>to be arrested, or describe him or her sufficiently to establish identity;</strong></p>

<p><strong>No handcuffs;</strong></p>
<p><strong>must immediately take the arrested party before a magistrate when demanded, and hold the party for<span style="text-decoration:underline;"> no other purpose</span> (no photographs, no fingerprinting);</strong></p>
<p><strong>You are responsible for<span style="text-decoration:underline;"> everything</span> that happens to the party even if you relinquish custody to an assign;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Unlawful arrest is assault, battery &amp; trespass;</strong></p>
<p><strong>There is<span style="text-decoration:underline;"> no immunity</span> in a false arrest case;</strong></p>
<p><strong>Good faith is not a defense to sustain false arrest.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Lastly . . . If the warrant states as cause to issue, a mere civil/statutory infraction or &#8220;offense&#8221; not rising to the level of a capital crime, then the arrest is in violation of Article III &#8220;Due Process.&#8221;. . You do not by accommodation, accept the offer of arrest for any statutory infraction or omission unless the statute defines a capital crime and thereby probable cause exists to issue a warrant based upon said probable cause by the damaged party or his agent acting in his personal capacity.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#008000;"><strong>(for Austin)</strong></span></p>
<p align="center"><strong>THE OPEN LETTER TO AGENTS OF THE CROWN</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>We the People are finally being awakened. We tracked down the original 13th Amendment to the Constitution &#8211; you know, the one you started the War of 1812 over so you could burn the original and all of the copies – Said amendment states, all of you Esquires are not permitted to have a title of nobility AND at the same time, hold public office in America. Up until now, you have been getting away with both.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>We learned that the BAR originates in the Crown Temple in London, England. Therefore, your oath to the BAR means you are not Americans, but elective agents for a foreign power. You have possess no citizenship, you are stateless persons. You claim to do business under a license to practice law. As a matter of fact there is no such thing as a license to practice law. We searched in the statutes, codes, rules and regulations for every state and also their respective secretaries of state and supreme courts. No authorization for a &#8220;license to issue, for the purpose to practice law&#8221; exists anywhere. That means every one of you has &#8220;come ashore&#8221; and is operating as a &#8220;Privateer&#8221; for profit, within the midst of the American people.. JOHN HENRY DOE, ESQUIRE is a fiction that exists only on paper.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>What you do have, is simply a BAR card that authorizes you to &#8220;sail the sea of public debt&#8221; using the statutes, codes, rules and regulations to plunder and pillage the economic well being of the American people. We can&#8217;t help but notice, that all of the &#8220;black flag&#8221; law you use, is in fact, under copyright, so the People are foreclosed to use this private law, without employing you. How well are the people doing when attempting to use these laws? It isn&#8217;t easy, since you have us hanging upside down looking in the mirror trying to read the newspaper, but we determined that statutes, codes, rules and regulations are not in fact law, but the abrogation of the &#8220;Law.&#8221; Abrogate means &#8220;to abolish by authoritative action: ANNUL&#8221;. Applying the force of deadly violence, you have annulled and perverted the Law of the Land and replaced it with color of law. Color of law is a false flag, a black flag, a pirate flag. You esquires are a mere collection of actors. No license in fact and of course, no substantive law to support your fictitious claims.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>We have counted the number of statutes, codes, rules and regulations that you have created, with the intelligence endowed by your Creator and which you use against us, the American people. There are many more than 60 million statutes, codes, rules and regulations, certainly more than all of you BAR attorneys put together can keep track of absent today’s software, quarterly updates, and teams of legal researchers &#8211; and, voila! You have billing hours too!</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>You &#8220;craft&#8221; statutes, codes, rules and regulations at the behest of your corrupt and chosen Masters, the ancient hate-driven cult within a hate-driven racist sect that are the tiresome take-over-the-world self appointed elite and the underlying blueprint for criminality. The beasts of the field possess more natural honor than you. You herd the People you have defrauded into the system of the Matrix like so many cattle, to be processed, robbed of their freedom, families and property, experimented upon with drug sorcery, and all too often terminated!</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>You do this because the BAR Association is a hate-driven money worshipping cult. Your masters reward you with obscene hourly rates for the building of your personal empires. You are so far gone from the sight of God, that you presume to possess the authority to write rules to justify plundering and pillaging your fellow beings. You have much death, dying, and destruction on your hands.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>And your &#8220;noble cause&#8221; is what? Why, is not the perpetual U.S. bankruptcy your noble cause, your reason for destroying millions of lives minute by minute. The U.S. bankruptcy is George W. Bush&#8217;s noble cause, whereby the president presumes the authority to enact and enforce new &#8220;emergency bankruptcy laws&#8221; (statutes) that create debtor&#8217;s prisons for the People, who since 1933, have had no money of account, to pay a debt with, the United States, an insolvent corporate body, is itself bankrupt as a matter of agenda, and has presumed to &#8220;take&#8221; from us, our productive energy, as a surety to issue the necessary credit to float the public debt.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>In fact all so-called governing bodies in the U.S. are bankrupt subsidiary corporations existing in the nature of federal-state-county and municipal entities, based on the premise of an ongoing series of &#8220;Federal Projects&#8221; funded on Human Capital. The SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is an insolvent corporation and does not exist in fact. All law firms are in fact bankrupt. There has been no money since 1933! We the people have no law because we have been denied access to honest money to secure property interests to ourselves.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>Whether or not you BAR attorneys swore a secret oath to administer the U.S. bankruptcy, the said bankruptcy is an integral part of each and every letter you send, every form you submit, every court pleading you file, every plea bargain and negotiate. It is a fact of your every professional thought, besides billable hours. &#8220;Law&#8221; has nothing to do with what your do.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>At this point you attorneys have made your true purpose patently obvious. &#8220;Attorning&#8221; is defined as: &#8220;. . . to take all of the property of the People and convert said property to the control of the Chosen Masters. Well, your masters&#8217; day is on the verge of being over. It may seem, the said Masters are consolidating their control of all the Earth, therefore assuring your lucrative positions as their agents for profit and mayhem; and always profit; but we continue to expose these Elite in this forum and many others.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>You are being destroyed by leaks from within. From the 13 old European families of banking perversion to the Everytown, USA municipal traffic tribunal judge (who would not be caught dead retiring with less than $30 million of the People&#8217;s money) and all the Satanist racketeering extortionist blackmailing pedophile warmongering purveyors of human flesh in between, the self appointed elite are at their end.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>Some of you attorneys may be hearing the jungle drums and growing uneasy, but most of you are 100% in your ego at all times and proud of being arrogant. Your arrogance may interfere with your understanding of this message, but check it out, because now it is your turn to &#8220;understand&#8221; something. The jig is up. The truth herein is ugly, but we believe Americans are very angry about the truth to date and that they are ready to hear more. Many will even act on it according to their conscience.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>Just when we thought your deeds could not possibly get more hideous, we discovered that you create commercial paper for each inmate in every prison and put a price on him personally. You hypothecate that price many times. Correctional Corporation of America (Nashville, Tennessee) creates the bonds, and Lehman Brothers underwrites those bonds for being bought and sold on the world financial markets. The Chosen Masters cut you in on the deals and you all take profits from this. We are enraged to know that U.S. corporations are being funded by our brothers and sisters who were busted for statutory crimes that damage no one, a prime example is for not having a current driver license. You BAR attorneys created crimes out of nothing and wrote the rules for this heinous and sickening theft of the People&#8217;s derivative productive energy, all for administering the U.S. bankruptcy and your own unjust enrichment. We the People, the ones in whom the power is truly vested, are putting an end to your trafficking in human flesh and spirit.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>We used to have common law courts in this country, courts that addressed substance, property in fact. In common law, unless a living being has been injured or property loss has occurred there has been no crime. We also found out that you BAR attorneys raised the level of the Sea on paper so that it &#8220;covers&#8221; the land, thereby fraudulently subjecting us to admiralty/maritime law, to the Law of the Sea, to literal piracy. A cop pulling us over on a re-venue stop, is an act of piracy. It is a kidnapping. That&#8217;s a pirate flag he&#8217;s flying, so cops reading this take heed, for the Chosen Masters put you where the rubber meets the road. Get this through your heads now: codes do not apply to the People, only to the corporations i.e. fictitious &#8220;PERSONS&#8221; for which they were written, and that means you, and it means you have been coerced to become nothing more than corporate free agents as were the &#8220;privateers&#8221; of old, the Pirate. Some of you became cops in order to be respected. But we have been giving you not respect but fear, and after enough abuse, people overcome their fears, becoming dangerous to everyone around them . . . is that what we want? We have a God-given right to defend ourselves and our property and to presume to regulate away the right to use deadly force were necessary is a fraud perpetrated by the fearful elite.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>The Chosen Masters have decreed that there are too many of us, so you BAR attorneys make it &#8220;legal&#8221; on paper for vile toadies of the Chosen Masters to poison us and the entire Earth through the use of prescription drugs, our food, the air, our water, and the land, and when we sicken, we are forced accept dangerous drugs, forced upon us, and when we die, our former employers receive death benefits$$$$$$ paid through secret, illegal life insurance policies on us, unjustly enriching a variety of corporations so that the Chosen Masters may take profits. (Note: Each Death Certificate is issued on banknote security paper and thereby, becomes a &#8220;certificated security&#8221;, in the nature of a &#8220;Bearer Bond.&#8221; Your Social Security Number is the identifying account number of the &#8220;Constructive Trust Account&#8221; that was held in your name, with the U.S. Treasury. This Trust Account issued, because your were intentionally defrauded by the Congress when the Senate declared in: <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Senate Document # 43; SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 62 (Pg 9, Para 2) April 17, 1933. &#8220;The ultimate ownership of all property is in the State; individual so-called &#8220;ownership&#8221; is only by virtue of Government, i.e., law, amounting to mere user; and use must be in accordance with law and subordinate to the necessities of the State.&#8221; (Emphasis added</span>) It is well settled in law, that upon the commission of a fraud, a &#8220;Trust Account&#8221; will execute in the name of the defrauded party.&#8221; The Senate needed these accounts to float the public debt and once the account holder dies, ignorant of his or her account, that account defaults to the fed. The police powers are used to keep these account holder in line and ignorant, while they’re being treated as a common economic wage slave.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>You lawyers will answer to the People in the lawful courts we establish and you must answer to your families, friends, neighbors and all whom you sold out. Just about everyone &#8211; except Freemasons of course</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>You BAR attorneys are the original back-door men, the ones in the back room, failing to adjust the accounts. You never pay your bills. Once you take a case you are the holder of the account for the case. This means, under Public Law 73-10 wherein, all crimes are commercial crimes, and under Public Policy, you must adjust the account to offset the liability for closure and settlement. You always fail to make the ledger entry &#8211; there is NO money and the People are exempt from levy &#8211; so you attorneys never pay your bills, you defer the tax in our names and transfer the charges against us, putting us in debtors prison under the misnomer of tax cheats and tax protesters instead.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>You get paid whether you &#8220;win&#8221; your case or not, and the judicial system enforces the payment of your fees. This is conclusive proof of the criminality inherent in the U.S. judicial system. What else is a criminal but someone in possession of a valuable commodity – productive human energy &#8211; that was acquired without exchanging something of value to acquire or pay for that productive energy?</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Well, it is painfully obvious to the People that these courts are not our courts and can grant no relief or remedy in our true names; we are forever barred from remedy in these colorable courts i.e administrative tribunals. We are going to do away with them and you. Don&#8217;t look now, but persons in positions of authority are going to seize the reins. Even now we are turning the tide for a permanent return to a constitutional republic. The People will no longer tolerate the lies, the corruption and the death that you litigate and legislate as your daily bread.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>You BAR attorneys are all drunkards, drunk on debt, chasing Federal Reserve Notes which are mere notes of debt (death). You have made it illegal for the People to remove themselves from debt! You put every man, woman and child under the probate statutes, transferring our colorable wealth into our constructive trust, so you could access these private accounts to create life-destroying industries such as taxation and the JUST-US system. You attorneys are destroying the entire world, and you cannot make it clearer that you are anti-Life. Through trickery and the deceitful use of language, you would reduce our lives to nothing more than a perpetual surety for perpetual commercial transactions. We who now must pursue such life-diminishing goals as &#8220;getting out of debt&#8221; or &#8220;making the rent&#8221; or &#8220;paying the bills&#8221;, we demand that the BAR stand down and stand aside, now, and make way for the true Law.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>For starters, acknowledge openly, the People are in fact the Creditors and the system is the debtor and thereby, the people are as a matter of remedy and necessity, pre-paid and exempt from levy and due equal dollar for dollar payment for all of the business done in the name and account number of each American’s constructive trust account.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>In common law there is only two laws: do not harm another living being, and honor all of your contracts. But then there is　really only one Law: do unto others as you would have them do unto you.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Speaking of &#8220;personal debt&#8221;, we learned from our research that the People, the living men and women of this land and all the lands, are the source of all credit for the issue of all fiat (pretend) money; i.e., &#8220;credit&#8221;; i.e., &#8220;commercial credit&#8221;. So-called credit does not exist until We create it. We living Beings of Light are the source of all the energy that flows through us and is expressed as &#8220;credit&#8221;. Thus, the People can never be debtors, and you attorneys have slandered our names in your collection letters. We will make claims against you for the slander of title and based on your deceit, so EXPERIAN, TRANS UNION, EQUIFAX, take note. Your BAR attorneys will not be able to save you. EXPERIAN, TRANS UNION and EQUIFAX are bankrupt corporations. Yes, People? in this the Bizarre world the credit reporting agencies are insolvent.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>You are parasites. You possess no value, you create no value. You bring nothing to the table. All of the invisible so-called contracts i.e adhesion contracts, by which you believe you have us in a chokehold are null and void for lack of consideration, lack of full disclosure, for threats, duress and coercion in the formation of the presumptive contracts, and for acts unconscionable!</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>We the People demand forgiveness of all pretended debt. We demand the restoration of money of substance, backed by substance i.e. gold and silver. We demand our money back for all the illegal income tax collected as against our right to our own labor, that you have converted (stolen and given to a foreign corporation; i.e., the Federal Reserve&#8217;s collection agency INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE &#8211; also a bankrupt corporation). We demand the return of all the value you defrauded from us o fund your cash cow, the Social Security Ponzi scheme. Inasmuch as the court collected funds, are collected by corporate clerks and thereby, are for cause, illegal and cannot be added to municipal budget. Wherefore, the People&#8217;s fine payments go directly into the judge&#8217;s retirement fund. We demand that you make reparations to us for having defrauded and enslaved us.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>We demand the immediate stand-down of INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE. Further, once INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE has returned to us every penny plus interest, we demand the permanent abolishment of INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE. Then we shall sue our corporate employers for theft (Form W-4 and wage levies).</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>We learned that the origin and intent re the chain of political power of our form of government, begins with the individual American, then moves to the county, then the state and finally on to the U.S. Congress. (The political power flows DOWN to government from the source of all political, POWER, the people. Within our Republic, where all of our natural rights remain intact, our highest elected official is the county sheriff. We will restore lawful government first at home, in our counties. Generals and Provost Marshals, duty calls like never before, and we demand you do your duty and take into custody, those county sheriffs who knowingly cooperate and are complicit with these foreign usurpers!</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong> </strong><strong>We will open the prison doors and send home everyone imprisoned for &#8220;Malum Prohibitum&#8221; convitions and every other innocent victim of your unlawful codes. They will go home with all of their property restored to them plus reparations and public apologies. A goodly portion of those reparations will come from your pocket, Mr. BAR Attorney. We will return back to the prisons all of the real criminals routinely set loose into our communities by the pedophilic treasonous &#8220;authorities&#8221;, and many, many of you BAR attorneys will join them for your crimes.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Judges merit a special note. Municipal traffic courts, bankruptcy courts, probate courts i.e. courts of prize, federal courts, makes no difference, you are the most venal and rapacious type of creature imaginable. We have awakened to the real state of affairs: that we live in the Bizarre world. Thus it should come as no surprise that the man in the black dress, supposedly learned in the &#8220;law&#8221;, but forsakes that law for the code of the statute merchant, is in reality an extortionist, a career criminal, the most unlawful creature on the face of the Earth. The judge&#8217;s &#8220;bench&#8221; i.e. (&#8220;commercial bank&#8221;) is a moveable feast, feeding on the creative credit energy of the American people, his black robes are highly appropriate for a bird of carrion.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>You are all in breach of the Covenant, in breach of the Trust, in breach of the Contract. In your souls and in commerce, you are in fact, dishonorable. Your rights are forfeit and your property is forfeit &#8211; trust or no trust.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>We the People who are our Creator’s Beings of Light are taking responsibility and taking over. We are creating a world without parasites. Even as you read this we are &#8230; phasing you out. You cannot turn back this tide.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Members of the BAR, here are your choices: Come into the Light, or go into the Light. You very dark ones face un-creation or the Hell planet. You will not be missed.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Offered on behalf of the American People:</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Note: BAR Attorneys crafted law in 1980 that purports the attorney to represent both sides in a case! It is however, a felony for an attorney to accept remuneration from any party the attorney does not openly represent. So, should you experience a judge attempting to assign you a court appointed attorney in any case, simply claim conflict of interest, citing the attorney, being an officer of the court and at the same time. Presuming to represent your Constructive Trust. (In today’s Statute Merchant Tribunals, you personally aren’t and can’t be re-presented by an attorney. As the beneficiary of your trust, you are coerced by the BAR and the judge, to accept the prosecutors offer of an attorney to represent your constructive trust. This misleading scheme comes within the provisions of the Statute of Frauds!</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#008000;">(For Austin)</span></strong></p>
<div><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#008000;">(Blog Master&#8217;s Note: I&#8217;m glad I took the time to spend a night and day researching into the Birth Certificate Bond.  There are many examples, some pro and con.  I discovered other things in the process, like Cornell University hides information.  For instance don&#8217;t go there and try to look up Code of Federal Regulations Title 31, Section 103.11 and beyond under Section 103.  What you will find is only Section 103.  It&#8217;s important because one of Austin&#8217;s Documents, and his e-mails, are directed at 103.11 Meaning of Terms.  In fact he highlighted a portion of 103.11, concerning the Birth Certificate and here it is: </span></strong></div>
<div><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-size:medium;color:#007f7f;"><br />
<strong><span style="font-size:medium;color:#007f7f;"><br />

<div><span style="font-size:small;color:#007f7f;">(1) Monetary instruments include:</span><br />
<strong><span style="font-size:small;color:#007f7f;">(i) Currency;<strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#007f7f;"><strong><strong><span style="color:#007f7f;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><span style="font-family:Arial;"><br />
</span></span></span></strong>(ii) Traveler&#8217;s checks in any form;<span style="font-family:Arial;color:#007f7f;"><br />
<strong>(iii) All negotiable instruments (including personal checks, business checks, official bank checks, cashier&#8217;s checks, third-party checks, promissory notes (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code), and money orders) that are either in bearer form, endorsed without restriction, made out to a fictitious payee (for the purposes of §103.23), or otherwise in such form that title thereto passes upon delivery;</strong></span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family:Arial;">(iv) Incomplete instruments (including personal checks, business checks, official bank checks, cashier&#8217;s checks, third-party checks, promissory notes (as that term is defined in the Uniform Commercial Code), and money orders) signed but with the payee&#8217;s name omitted; and</span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family:Arial;">(v) Securities or stock in bearer form or otherwise in such form that title thereto passes upon delivery.</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Arial;">(2) Monetary instruments do not include warehouse receipts or bills of lading.</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Arial;">(v) <em>Originator.</em> The sender of the first payment order in a funds transfer.</span><br />
<strong><span style="font-family:Arial;">(w) <em>Originator&#8217;s bank.</em> The receiving bank to which the payment order of the originator is issued if the originator is not a bank or foreign bank, or the originator if the originator is a bank or foreign bank.</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Arial;">(x) <em>Payment date.</em> The day on which the amount of the transmittal order is payable to the recipient by the recipient&#8217;s financial institution. The payment date may be determined by instruction of the sender, but cannot be earlier than the day the order is received by the recipient&#8217;s financial institution and, unless otherwise prescribed by instruction, is the date the order is received by the recipient&#8217;s financial institution.</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Arial;">(y) <em>Payment order.</em> An instruction of a sender to a receiving bank, transmitted orally, electronically, or in writing, to pay, or to cause another bank or foreign bank to pay, a fixed or determinable amount of money to a beneficiary if:</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Arial;">(1) The instruction does not state a condition to payment to the beneficiary other than time of payment;</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Arial;">(2) The receiving bank is to be reimbursed by debiting an account of, or otherwise receiving payment from, the sender; and</span><br />
<span style="font-family:Arial;">(3) The instruction is transmitted by the sender directly to the receiving bank or to an agent, funds transfer system, or communication system for transmittal to the receiving bank</span></strong></strong></strong></strong></span></strong></span></strong> </div>
<div>
<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#008000;">(I was going nuts trying to find this on Cornell but instead I found it here: <a href="http://cfr.vlex.com/vid/103-11-meaning-terms-19741976" target="_blank"><strong><span style="font-size:small;"> 31 CFR 103.11</span></strong></a> .  Pay attention to (x) payment date, it will come up again on Austin&#8217;s forms as PD date.   Why would Cornell pretend that Section 103. 11 didn&#8217;t exist?)</span></strong></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Arial;"><strong><span style="color:#008000;">Austins message:</span> <span style="color:#007f7f;">Here are  files under Title 31 which the bank is held to specifically perform . . . study these definitions and use them where applicable . . . don&#8217;t go diving into these bastards make threats . . . it allows them to bring in their lawyers and then you&#8217;ll never clean it up. Educate yourself first . . . threats are seen as a weakness . . . I never threatened an asshole who had it coming . . . I just busted his ass in the middle of his rant.</span></strong></span></p>
<p><strong><span style="color:#007f7f;">Lots on the Birth Certificate . . . the transition of the Death Certificate gives access to the trading of the Birth Certificate with Dunn and Bradstreet (a British entity that goes back centuries) . . . they want to keep you mothers commercial energy and &#8220;Bond&#8221; trading on the market and without a timely demand for probate of the Treasury Account, they will claim the account as abandon property, subject to salvage . . . this is the info you need to know and understand when you speak with these assholes. Put the burden on them, tell them you will need them to provide you with all of their purported authorities in writing indicating how they believe you are to specifically perform under Title 31 and the Uniform Commercial Code and signed by an officer of the bank. </span></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#008000;">(For Austin)</span></strong></p>
<div><strong><span style="font-family:Arial;color:#008000;">(Blog Master&#8217;s Note: While going through Austin&#8217;s Documents I ran into two more on Birth Certificates.  This one defines the fraud involved in selling bonds on it.  By the end of this week, or sooner, I will give remedy for using the Birth Certificate as a Bond.) </span></strong></div>
<div>
<p align="center"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><strong><span style="font-size:large;">TRACKING THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE SCHEME</span></strong></span></p>
<p align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:large;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">HOW THE UNENLIGHTENED ARE PICKED CLEAN</span></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#000000;">When a child is born within the corporate United States, a <span style="font-size:medium;">Record of Live Birth </span>form (a commercial Bill of Lading), or similar, is issued by the hospital. The father and mother sign this hospital form (a receipt for goods) as the parents (manufacturer) and title holders (owners) of the goods (child). The transfer of the property Rights (the child&#8217;s Rights) to the State is accepted by the signature of their government agent, a State licensed Physician. The parents have unknowingly pledged their child&#8217;s future and labors to the government and signed a presumed contract. This converts the legal status of their child to that of chattel property in permanently indentured servitude (See Preface, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Part I</span>). The State becomes the <em>de facto</em> holder of the Rights to the child (collateral).</span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Next, the hospital sends the Record of Live Birth to the <span style="font-size:medium;">State Bureau of Vital Statistics, </span>sometimes called the department of Health and Rehabilitative Services (HRS) in some States. Each State is required to supply the Federal government with birth, death, and health statistics. The State agency that receives the Record of Live Birth (title) keeps it and then issues a <span style="font-size:medium;">Birth Certificate </span>(BC). The BC is a commercial instrument (document) evidencing that the State is holding the title (ownership) to the child. Holding the title is not the same as having possession of the property, so the State is the &#8220;holder&#8221; of the instrument but <span style="text-decoration:underline;">not</span> the &#8220;holder in due course&#8221;. This is all based on the presumed acceptance of the contract (Record of Live Birth) between the manufacturer (parents) and the purchaser (State). The parents are not aware of this assumed contract because it was never revealed to them nor was full disclosure made in good faith, so they don&#8217;t object to what they don&#8217;t know. The current holder of your commercial birth document (receipt) is able to capitalize on it because of your failure to instruct the holder to do otherwise, due to your silence and lack of legal action.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>cer·tif·i·cate, <em>noun</em>. Middle English <em>certificat, </em>from Middle French, from Medieval Latin <em>certificatum, </em>from Late Latin, neuter of <em>certificatus, </em>past participle of <em>certificare, </em>to certify, 15th century. 3 : <span style="text-decoration:underline;">a document evidencing ownership or debt</span>. (<em>Merriam Webster Dictionary 1998<span style="font-size:small;">).</span></em></strong></p>
<p align="justify"> <strong>This</strong> <strong><em><span style="font-size:x-small;"><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;">Birth Certificate </span></strong></span></strong></span></em></strong><em><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>issued by the State is then <span style="text-decoration:underline;">registered</span></strong> <strong>with the <strong><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;">U.S. Department of Commerce </span></span>through their agency, the <span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;">U.S. Census Bureau</span></span>, who is responsible to collect vital statistics from all the States. The word &#8220;registered&#8221;, in commercial law, does <em>not</em> mean that your name was merely noted in a registry or book for reference purposes. </strong></strong></span></em><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;">When a Birth Certificate is registered with the U.S. Department of Commerce, it means that the child&#8217;s <em>persona</em> named on it has become a surety or guarantor as collateral for a commercial loan.</span></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"> <strong>registered. Security, bond. <em>(Merriam-Webster&#8217;s Dictionary of Law 1996</em><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#0000ff;"><span style="font-size:small;">). </span></span></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"> <strong>Security. 1a: Something (as a mortgage or collateral) that is provided to make certain the fulfillment of an obligation. Example: used his property as security for a loan. 1b: &#8220;<span style="text-decoration:underline;">surety</span>&#8220;. 2: Evidence of indebtedness, ownership, or the right to ownership</strong>.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Bond. 1a: A usually formal written agreement by which a person undertakes to perform a certain act (as fulfill the obligations of a contract) &#8230;with the condition that failure to perform or abstain will obligate the person &#8230;to pay a sum of money or will result in the forfeiture of money put up by the person or surety. 1b: One who acts as a <span style="text-decoration:underline;">surety</span>. 2: An interest-bearing document giving evidence of a debt issued by a government body or corporation that is sometimes secured by a lien on property and is often designed to take care of a particular financial need.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Surety. The person who has pledged him or herself to pay back money or perform a certain action if the principal to a contract fails, as collateral, and as part of the original contract. <em>(Duhaime&#8217;s Law Dictionary)</em>.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>1: a formal engagement (as a pledge) given for the fulfillment of an undertaking. 2: one who promises to answer for the debt or default of another. Under the Uniform Commercial Code, however, a surety includes a guarantor, and the two terms are generally interchangeable. <em>(Merriam-Webster&#8217;s Dictionary of Law 1996)</em>.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Guarantor. A person who pledges collateral for the contract of another, but separately, as part of an independently contract with the obligee of the original contract. <em>(Duhaime&#8217;s Law Dictionary)</em>.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>It&#8217;s not difficult to see that a Birth Certificate is a document evidencing debt the moment it&#8217;s issued. This is how it works: Once each State has <span style="text-decoration:underline;">registered</span>, by commercial bulk transfer, </strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">the </span><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;">Birth Certificates </span></strong></span></strong><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">with the U.S. Department of Commerce, the</span><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"> U.S. Department of the Treasury</span></span></strong> <strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">then issues </span><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;">Treasury Securities </span></span></strong></span><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">in the form of Treasury Bonds, Notes, and Bills using the BC&#8217;s as sureties or guarantors for these purported Securities.</span></strong></span> <strong>This means that the bankrupt corporate U.S. can guarantee to the purchasers of their Securities the lifetime labor of all Americans as collateral for payment. Isn&#8217;t it nice to know that when you were born, within days you became the collateral for corporate U.S. debt-loans through the assumed contract your parents thought was nothing more than a Record of Live Birth? But wait&#8230; the chain of events gets even more interesting.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Who purchases these <span style="font-size:medium;">Treasury Securities</span>?</strong> <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">Nearly all are purchased by commercial institutions and brokerage firms on behalf of their individual clients. These purchases are called </span></strong><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;">commercial book entry</span></span></strong> <strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">transactions whereby the individual purchaser never receives a paper stock certificate. Follow very closely and see if you can notice the monopoly and identity of the</span><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"><span style="color:#0000ff;font-size:medium;"> World Power Brokers </span></span></strong></span><strong><span style="color:#0000ff;">unfolding here. Key words are underlined:</span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"> <strong><span style="color:#9933cc;"> 1. The commercial book entry system is operated <em>exclusively</em> by the <em>privately owned</em> <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Federal Reserve System</span> (formerly the Federal Reserve Bank) as fiscal agents of the U.S. Treasury Department</span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#9933cc;"> 2. <em>All</em> these securities are <span style="text-decoration:underline;">recorded</span> in the commercial book entry system as &#8220;book entry issues&#8221; <span style="text-decoration:underline;">held</span> for the account of the depository institution.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#9933cc;">3. The <em>exclusive</em> depository institution is the <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Depository Trust Company</span> (DTC), a privately owned trust company (bank), who maintains records identifying the individual &#8220;beneficial owners&#8221; of securities that the DTC holds (<span style="text-decoration:underline;">holder</span>) in its account in the commercial book</span></strong> <strong>entry system.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#9933cc;">4. The <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Depository Trust Company </span>is an operating unit of (<span style="text-decoration:underline;">owned</span> by) the Federal Reserve System</span></strong><strong><span style="color:#7f007f;"><span style="color:#7f007f;font-size:small;"><span style="color:#7f007f;font-size:small;">. </span></span></span></strong><strong><strong></strong></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#9933cc;"> 5. The <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Depository Trust Company </span>transfers <em>all</em> the securities to their own private holding company <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Cede &amp; Company</span><span style="color:#7f007f;"><span style="color:#7f007f;font-size:small;"><span style="color:#7f007f;font-size:small;">. </span></span></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#9933cc;"> 6.<span style="text-decoration:underline;"> Cede &amp; Company </span>is the <span style="text-decoration:underline;">holder</span> of nearly $20 trillion ($ 20,000,000,000,000) of stocks and bonds<span style="color:#7f007f;"><span style="color:#7f007f;font-size:small;"><span style="color:#7f007f;font-size:small;">. </span></span></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#9933cc;"> 7. The Federal Reserve System uses the Treasury Securities it <span style="text-decoration:underline;">holds</span> as collateral to print and issue Federal Reserve Notes, which are further debt obligations.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="color:#000000;">a contract can only be valid if it follows all the Rules and Process of law that created it. One of the main elements or rules of contract law states that &#8220;all parties must understand the scope, nature, terms, and t that fails to be entered into by mutual &#8220;good faith&#8221;, with full disclosure of the terms and conditions to both parties, and consent by all parties, is void <em>ab initio </em>(from the beginning). <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Whenever the elements of &#8220;good faith&#8221; disclosure and/or &#8220;consent&#8221; are missing, any contract can automatically be ruled null and void if the deceived or defrauded party enforces the Rules of Law</span>. Once again, silence is default. If you say nothing, you have defaulted.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">UCC 1-203 Obligation of good faith</span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>.&#8211;Every contract or duty within this code imposes an obligation of good faith in its performance or enforcement</strong><span style="font-size:small;">. </span></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>Were you aware of the implied and &#8220;presumed&#8221; contract between you and the Real Party of Interest, the owners of the Federal Reserve System? In all law and truth, it doesn&#8217;t exist, does it?</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">UCC 1-201 Definitions</span></strong><strong><strong><span style="font-size:small;">&#8211; (31) &#8220;Presumption&#8221; or &#8220;presumed&#8221; means that the trier of fact must find the existence of the fact presumed <span style="text-decoration:underline;">unless and until evidence is introduced which would support a finding of its nonexistence</span>.</span></strong></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>Were all terms and conditions disclosed to you at birth or any time since then? Of course not. Legally, once you rebut the presumption by affidavit for failure to disclose the terms and conditions or obtain mutual consent, the contract automatically becomes null and void. Such a contract as this, which has unlawfully bound the average American to it, is considered fraud or misrepresentation. For example:</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">UCC 1-103 Supplementary general principles of law applicable</span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>.&#8211;Unless displaced by the particular provisions of this code, the principles of law and equity, including the law merchant and the law relative to capacity to contract, principal and agent, estoppel, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">fraud</span>, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">misrepresentation</span>, duress, coercion, mistake, bankruptcy, or other validating or <span style="text-decoration:underline;">invalidating</span> <span style="text-decoration:underline;">cause</span> shall supplement its provisions</strong><span style="font-size:small;">.</span></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>As you can now see, the major flaw in all artificial governments and their &#8220;laws&#8221; is the absence of a genuine and legal agreement between the parties due to a failure to fully disclose, have a meeting of the minds, and lack mutual &#8220;good faith&#8221;. In their presumption that you have agreed to a <em>bona fide</em> contract with the government, you were never informed of the full terms and conditions of the purported contract</strong>.</p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>The reason this situation could exist in the first place is due to the fact that the American People have fooled themselves, lied to themselves, and failed to communicate among themselves. They have put aside their Holy Bibles and replaced the True Law of God with the laws of men. The world of man&#8217;s laws and governments was brought about by the very people who are now servants to the &#8220;system&#8221;. Since Lincoln&#8217;s War, Christian Americans have lived in fear of speaking out against wrongs that they see taking place.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>According to the universal principles and foundations of contract law (See Background, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Part I</span>), <span style="text-decoration:underline;">in the absence of a genuine agreement, no contract exists</span>. What does exist is nothing more than a <span style="text-decoration:underline;">presumption</span> of contract based on the deceived party (you) having foolishly trusted in the government. Although fraud is unlawful, it is not illegal in artificial State rulership systems. Keep in mind, once again, that all governments are structurally fraudulent due to the origins of their artificial conception. Based on this premise of evidence, it&#8217;s an obvious fact that fraud must be &#8220;legal&#8221; as governments are able to judge themselves as legal in the first place. In other words, the existence of a government is a legality of fraud <em>ab initio</em>.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>Holder in Due Course In Commercial Law, the ultimate owner of any &#8220;Document of Title&#8221; is known as the &#8220;Holder in Due Course&#8221; (HDC). He is the only one who possesses a valid claim to &#8220;title&#8221; whereby the goods or property are deliverable to him. By comparison, a technical &#8220;Holder&#8221; may legally possess a &#8220;Negotiable Instrument&#8221;, but he lacks the ultimate claim of &#8220;title&#8221; held by the HDC and is nothing more than a receiver and collector of payments. </strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>The HDC receives the delivery of</strong> <strong>the property; the Holder merely receives payment for the property</strong></span><strong>.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">UCC 1-201 DEFINITIONS</span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:medium;"><strong>&#8211; (20) &#8220;Holder,&#8221; <span> with respect to a <span style="text-decoration:underline;">negotiable instrument</span>, means the person in possession if the instrument is <span style="text-decoration:underline;">payable</span> to bearer or, in the case of an instrument payable to an identified person, if the identified person is in possession. &#8220;Holder,&#8221; with respect to a <span style="text-decoration:underline;">document of title</span>, means the person in possession if the goods are <span style="text-decoration:underline;">deliverable</span> to bearer or to the order of the person in possession</strong><span style="font-size:small;">.</span></span></strong><strong><strong></strong></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:medium;"><strong>UCC 3-302 HOLDER IN DUE COURSE<strong><span style="font-size:small;"> &#8212; Subject to subsection (c) and Section 3-106(d), &#8220;holder in due course&#8221; means the holder of an instrument if: (1) the instrument when issued or negotiated to the holder does not bear such apparent evidence of forgery or alteration or is not otherwise so irregular or incomplete as to call into question its authenticity; and (2) the holder took the instrument (i) for <span style="text-decoration:underline;">value</span>, (ii) in <span style="text-decoration:underline;">good faith</span>, (iii) without notice that the instrument is overdue or has been dishonored or that there is an uncured default with respect to payment of another instrument issued as part of the same series, (iv) without notice that the instrument contains an unauthorized signature or has been altered, (v) without notice of any claim to the instrument described in Section 3-306, and (vi) without notice that any party has a defense or claim in recoupment described in Section 3-305(a).</span></strong></strong></span></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:small;">As stated earlier, your Birth Certificate is simply a warehouse receipt. Birth Certificates are bundled together and transferred or purchased in &#8220;bulk sales&#8221; under one or more of the provisions found in UCC 6-104 through 108. However, possession of your Birth Certificate was not taken by the government in &#8220;good faith&#8221; and the legal Holder (government) cannot &#8220;enforce the instrument free from all claims and personal defenses.&#8221; This means that whoever, or whatever artificial entity, is now acting as the purported &#8220;owner&#8221; of your Birth Certificate can, in legal reality, only be only a technical &#8220;Holder&#8221; of the Negotiable Instrument and can never be the actual &#8220;Holder in due Course&#8221;. Only you can be the HDC.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>owner of all your earthly affairs and everything else concerning ownership of your legal life. When you really think about itThe HDC is the most powerful position in any exchange of property or goods in commercial law. The allodial key to understanding this lies in whether you <span style="text-decoration:underline;">are</span> or <span style="text-decoration:underline;">are not</span> the HDC of your Document of Title of birth, the Negotiable Instrument to your legal existence. Once you see that you are the legal HDC to your own Title of Rights, your whole worldly life will change dramatically. You are then, once again, a sovereign with respect to anything of which you are the Holder in Due Course. This will make you the HDC of &#8220;yourself&#8221;, both the real biological person <span style="text-decoration:underline;">and</span> the artificial <em>persona</em>. It will place you as the ultimate , this is the &#8220;legal&#8221; means by which your physical being and your Spiritual being can join together in true Freedom and Liberty</strong><strong><span style="font-size:small;">. </span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>The &#8220;secret&#8221; to becoming the HDC is known as &#8220;Acceptance for Value.&#8221; Your Birth Certificate (Document of Title) is currently held by &#8220;unknown parties&#8221; who can never be the HDC of it. Only you, and you alone, can become the HDC. When your offer of &#8220;purchase&#8221; is made, title passes upon acceptance of the offer. The offer (your UCC-1) is accepted by the previous Holder (the government) when they record it in the State records for a fee payment (value). The &#8220;acceptance for value&#8221; is made by the government in accordance with two Rules of law: One, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">the fee paid for recording the instrument</span>; Two, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">since it is recorded without objection, it is also accepted by their own conduct, both implied and direct</span></strong>.</p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>All that remains to do at this point is to give or show affidavit evidence of the exchange (a copy of your recorded UCC-1 Financing Statement with the State acceptance seal and certification). &#8220;Acceptance&#8221; and &#8220;offer&#8221; are the two mandatory elements to any legal contract in commercial law. &#8220;Acceptance&#8221; or &#8220;Acceptance for Value&#8221;, for the purpose of commercial law, is &#8220;acquiescence&#8221;. Look carefully at these definitions written by Canadian lawyer Lloyd Duhaime from <em>Duhaime&#8217;s Law Dictionary</em>:</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">Acceptance<span style="font-size:small;"><strong>.</strong> <strong>A contract is a legally binding agreement between two or more parties which starts with an offer from one person but which does not become a contract until the other party signifies an unequivocal willingness to accept the terms of that offer. The moment of acceptance is the moment from which a contract is said to exist, and not before. <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Acceptance need not always be direct and can be implied by conduct</span></strong><span style="font-size:small;">.</span></span></span></strong><strong><strong></strong></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">Acquiescence</span></strong><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-size:small;">.</span><strong> Action or <span style="text-decoration:underline;">inaction which binds a person legally even though it was not intended as such</span>. For example, action which is not intended as a direct acceptance of a contract will nevertheless stand as such as <span style="text-decoration:underline;">it implies recognition of the terms of the contract</span>. If I display a basket of fruit in a marketplace and you come by, inspect an apple and then bite into it, you have acquiesced to the contract of sale of that apple.</strong></span></strong><strong><strong></strong></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">Offer<span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-size:small;">. </span><strong>An explicit proposal to contract which, <span style="text-decoration:underline;">if accepted, completes the contract</span> and binds both the person that made the offer and the person accepting the offer to the terms of the contract</strong><span style="font-size:small;">.</span></span></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>In this modern world, man&#8217;s laws dictate that there are only two classes of people in any legal proceeding. You are either a Creditor or a Debtor. When your &#8220;legal sovereignty&#8221; is established, you become the sovereign Creditor of your life and affairs. Every adverse party then becomes your Debtor. However, if you do <span style="text-decoration:underline;">not</span> establish your legal sovereignty, you do not &#8220;own&#8221; yourself (your own title) as the HDC; you have no legal capacity; you have no &#8220;standing in law&#8221; to assert your Rights; and you will remain a <span style="text-decoration:underline;">permanent</span> Debtor as you are now. As Debtor, you will always lose in every dispute or claim by the current &#8220;system&#8221; for &#8220;failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted&#8221;.</strong></p>
<p align="justify"><strong>Reclaiming the legal ownership of your <em>persona</em> (straw man) acts as an &#8220;equitable estoppel&#8221; to any and all who come against you in commerce and law</strong>.</p>
<p align="justify"><strong><span style="font-size:medium;">Equitable estoppel</strong><strong><span style="font-size:small;"><span style="font-size:small;">.</span><strong> An estoppel that prevents a person from adopting a new position that contradicts a previous position maintained by words, silence, or actions when allowing the new position to be adopted would unfairly harm another person who has relied on the previous position to his or her loss. (called also<em> estoppel in pais</em>). Source-<em> Merriam Webster&#8217;s Dictionary of Law 1996.</em></strong></span></strong></p>
<p align="justify"><span style="font-size:small;"><strong>If you do <span style="text-decoration:underline;">not</span> reclaim your legal Rights of title and ownership to your persona, which makes you the Creditor and absolute sovereign ruler of your &#8220;straw man&#8221;, you will not be sovereign and you will lose every claim made against you. This is the reason why, if you ever think of hiring an ABA attorney to represent you in <span style="text-decoration:underline;">any</span> legal proceeding against the &#8220;system&#8221;, you must demand up front that he make you the Holder in Due Course of the action. Since he legally can&#8217;t do this, then you will lose if he &#8220;appears&#8221; for or &#8220;represents&#8221; you. The best any Bar(fly) attorney can do is make a deal with the system Creditor, which is a negotiated settlement of the money being claimed as damages. You must be the HDC to be able to ensure victory in all dealings with the government and the &#8220;system&#8221;.</strong></p>
