By The People

There are fundamental flaws in how American government operates today,
contrary to the Constitution and the vision of a representative republican form of governance.
I intend doing something about it: by educating and informing others who
are not even aware of the dangers.

When Law Is Crime!


There is a convinced and growing portion of the population in the united States of America today, that has been recently fueled by the stand-off at the Bundy Ranch, in Bunkerville, NV and the lack of attention brought to other government land grabs across the country. (See:  Native Americans Still Being Raped Of Their Land By “White Mans Government”: The BLM Land Grab That DIDN’T Go Viral)

The purpose of the original Legislative Branch of government is to represent the People (House of Representatives) and the States (two Senators originally selected by the state legislative bodies) and to protect the rights of both.

Little by little, the rights of both the People and the States have been taken by an increasingly tyrannical corporate federal government. And many Americans think that it is both 'necessary and proper' that we allow it, and it is allowed by silent consent. I strongly disagree.

The Founders knew that a corporate federal government (See:  East India Company) will overreach its limits and begin to infringe on and control the rights of the People. The very fact that it is by the People's consent that governance exists is lost on most Americans today, as they have been indoctrinated by a public education system designed to make them believe they are obligated to a corporate structure.

Sovereignty was the province of the King and all others were Subjects. Our nation was founded on the principle of Sovereign Individuals and the bodies of government were servants to the People.

There were very specific reasons that the Constitution limited the scope of the federal government. Because the law of the land is the Constitution, all laws must conform to it, otherwise they are invalid. When an unconstitutional law is obeyed by the majority of People, it gives government power to enforce it. Common Law is the law of the land under the Constitution, and it has been replaced with the very system that helped ignite the Revolution. See references to the Organic Act of 1871 in previous posts at the end of the article.

To those who do not remember or who did not learn of it in school, it was the taking over of the law by the British and the confiscation of arms that finally riled the People into rebellion. Defending themselves was a right they were not willing to concede to authority, even when that authority possessed the mightiest naval forces in the world at that time.

There are so many laws that have been passed by all levels of government, that it seems that the moment you leave your home, you are violating some of them. Of course it only seems relevant when actions you take that are perfectly in order with natural rights, are deemed against some law or mandate and you are arrested and charged with a crime.



In the post titled, The Second Amendment: Meaning and Purpose the reason that it was included in the Constitution becomes clear.  And it was clear when the Japanese were interrogated after the war, that they did not invade the US mainland because they feared a 'rifle behind every blade of grass' as the American People were well-armed.

"A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed"

It is apparent that any laws that restrict the rights of  the People to keep and bear arms, and to restrict the formation of citizen militias, is a crime against the Constitution and the People. Those who wrote and passed these laws are by their actions, perpetrators of high crimes and misdemeanors.

There are lawful processes for the People to take action against crimes committed by those entrusted to protect the People's rights. The Constitution provides the remedy through the grand jury method. Not the one that requires a prosecutor (DA) to initiate. But one initiated by Petition of the People.

There is no constitutional grounds for the federal government to own land. The 'public land' belongs to the People. It's time for the People to defend their lands, even from their own government.

The Blame Game: The Continuing Saga of Ineptitude


Let me make this as clear as possible. In the article posted by the Official Tea Party USA, the blame is given to the man occupying the White House and his party of Democratic Socialists. I agree to a point, but not entirely.

All appropriations emanates from the House of Representatives. The Constitution gave the House control of the purse of the taxpayer. The President and the Senate cannot force the House of Representatives to fund anything! The President and his Administration cannot pick and choose what parts of the government shuts down and which remain open, since funding comes from the House, it is only the House that can lawfully make those decisions on behalf of the People they represent.

John Boehner is lying to us all. The power of the purse is in his hands and not the Senate. It is up to him and the House to appropriate the funds necessary to maintain national security and emergency services during this debate over a continuing funding resolution which itself is the result of years of congressional failure to pass a budget.

The Democrats and their Indicted and Convicted Fugitive Criminal, illegal immigrant leader would have you believe that the Tea Party is to blame for the shutdown, but the reality is that the Tea Party and the congressional representatives they endorsed to represent the will of the People, are right in standing up to this blatant disregard for the rule of law. The person occupying the White House wants us to believe that the PPACA is the law of the land, but he and his Regime only follow the law when it is politically expedient.

The proper method(s) employed to remove unjust laws are spelled out in the Tenth Article of Amendment. It is the States who can use their power to nullify unjust federal laws. It has been used successfully in the past and since it is a constitutional method, cannot be prohibited by other unconstitutional laws.


All of this dancing around is a distraction from all of the other issues that really do matter. Benghazi, IRS targeting of groups who oppose Obama, NSA spying on the American People, Fast and Furious gunwalking to drug cartel criminals, arming terrorists in Libya, Egypt, and now Syria, telling Americans they cannot visit the White House because of funding issues while billions are sent to foreign nations, many which are enemies.




This is not a Democrat vs. Republican fight. This is a fight for our freedom and rights which are being eroded and lost to a government regardless of which political party is in power.

Nullifying Federal Mandates


"When a state 'nullifies' a federal Law, it is proclaiming that the in law in question is void and inoperative, or 'non-effective' within the boundaries of that state; or, in other words, not a law as far as the state is concerned."

This is the opening paragraph of a tri-fold 'brochure' that is available through the Tenth Amendment Center, "a national 'think tank' that works to preserve and protect the principles of strictly limited government through information, education, and activism."

The principles of nullifying federal laws has precedence in the Kentucky Resolution of 1798 in which Jefferson wrote, "The several states composing the United States of America are not united on the principles of unlimited submission to their general government, He states further that, "where the powers are assumed (by the federal or general government) which have NOT been delegated, a nullification of the act is the rightful remedy."


Madison also asserted in his Virginia Resolution of 1798, that the core premise of all nullification laws- that State governments not only have the right to resist unconstitutional Federal acts, but so that liberty may be protected they are "duty bound to interpose" or stand between the Federal government and the people of their state.

Without digressing into Constitutional review of Amendments made since the time of these resolutions of nullification, it is apparent that the citizens elect representation in their state legislative bodies as well as Federal, and with the exception of the direct election of the Senate, which was once the province of those State Legislative bodies along with the State Governor, selected or appointed Senators to represent the state, and with that we lost an essential balance of power that enabled the State and the people equal representation in the Federal houses.

It was more difficult then for the Federal government to enact laws that were contrary to the wishes and best interests of the State and the citizens of those states. We must correct that "flaw' amended to the Constitution.

I support the nullification of the Federal Reserve Act, as it removes the explicit responsibility of the monetary system from Congress and puts the nations wealth into the hands of private banks. It was designed as it was to prevent private banks from obtaining control of  the nations treasury and now we have debts owed to those secret member banks that generations to come will have to pay down. But the reality is that it can never be paid off completely because the Federal government must literally buy money at a premium from the Fed! Hello out there America! Are you awake yet?

Point your favorite browser toward the Tenth Amendment Center's website and learn about why we have the deficits we do, the sooner the better. This is NOT about party politics, and it is not about the current administration and its liberal support in Congress. This is about freedom and slavery.

Just because there is no taskmaster with a bullwhip standing behind you, as more and more individual rights and liberty are taken in the name of "protecting you" we all become that much closer to shackled slaves. We are being shackled to a "National ID" and now a national medical system. The government has been stepping in to "bailout" banks and businesses, and when they do, they hire government workers (they're the ones who depend on our taxes for their wages) to administer the bailout plan which also means that there is government control of  the business.

I do not not how long it will take before we are left with no rights. It has been a very slow and deliberate process that begun before the ink was dry on the Constitution itself, and may even have roots in the Articles of Confederation. I defer to the many expert conspiracy theorists who have written books and produced documentaries on those subjects. I do not make royalties on my blogging so I do not solicit their wares. There are so many places online where one can gather good information, that I see no pint in pointing someone to a particular author or activist.

Americans really need to learn that "Uncle Sam" is not all that powerful, only that we allow it to be powerful by being weak! Stand up for your freedoms or you will lose them. The protectors of liberty are you and me.
