Wisdom from Stacie Finn. In a discussion surrounding the economy while traveling in the car, Stacie, with tongue in cheek tells her husband, "the United States can't be broke, we still have ink!" Which is the way congress seems to think. Maybe Stacy should run for office.

Interesting Videos
The videos listed were operational when posed. Should you encounter one that is no longer operational, I would appreciate an update. Please advise me at: mhkeehn@lycos.com. Thanks
Public education teaching same marriage video. In this introductory page I have made the statement that I believe that government is attempting to push the American people into armed confrontation. It is events such as shown in this video that will probably provide the catalyst. I believe this law is repugnant to the vast majority of the American people, but it may be representative of the world in which our law makers live. Whatever one decides to do, he should probably do it with backing (the whole community if possible... people of one mind who will stand together) and peaceably (if possible) implement change in the laws. I suspect that Americans with backbones are probably going to take a stand. As we travel down this road, we should always keep in mind that we are getting exactly what we are voting for. Now for the video... Pubic education teaching same marriage to kindergarten children in Massachusetts. A seven minute video worthy of your time to view.
Your Cell phone is a spy, even when turned OFF (You didn't want privacy, did you?)
Should you talk to the police under any circumstances? A law professor, in front of his class, answers this question (27 minutes). Additional support for the law professors position comes from a police officer (21 minutes).
Are gasoline prices really going up, or is the value of our currency decreasing (3 minutes)?
Zeitgeist - "the spirit of the age" (2:02:15)
Naomi Wolf talks about America, or perhaps the end of America. Which, when translated, means the end of freedom, the end of liberty, the end of all that we hold dear as Americans. She is graceous and full of courage. What she has to say in this video is for all American's. As the message at the bottom of this web page suggests... we are all in this together. (47 minutes)
Martial Law preparations: We really don't want to know this, or to think our leadership has become this terrorized of the American people. However, they would know better than the rest of us what abuses they have planned for trhe American people. How long we can continue to ignore the evidence remains to be seen.
Neal's Court CornerTips for success
This new addition to my web page is intended for those struggling in the court system. The documents on this corner, as they appear (remembering that this is just a beginning) are devoted to helping develop a better understanding the legal landscape and its processes.
Using Affidavits - Posted 11-15-08:This first posting helps the individual understand the proper use of an affidavit. And it provides an example of improper use.
"I am only
one, but I am one. I cannot do everything, but I can do something. And
because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something
that I can do. What I can do, I should do. And what I should do, by the
grace of God, I will do." - Edward Everett Hale
"It is not my intent nor desire to cause you harm, I am only working to secure your freedom and mine" - The American Patriot
Federal
Reserve Notes:
Authorization
"Upon the
deposit with the Treasurer of the United States; (a) any direct
obligation of the United States; (b) any notes, drafts, bills of
exchange or
bankers acceptances acquired under the provisions of this act, that any
Federal Reserve Bank making such deposits in the manner prescribed by
the Secretary of the Treasury, shall be entitled to receive from the
Comptroller of the Currency, circulating notes in blank, duly
registered and countersigned."
(a)
public debt
OR
(b)
private debt
As can bee seen,
the currency is issued upon the acquisition of debt. It is
debt currency.
Blacks Law Dictionary defines money as follows:
Money. In the usual and ordinary acceptation it means coins and paper currency
used as circulating medium of exchange, and does not embrace notes,
bonds, evidences of debt, or other personal or real estate. - Blacks
Law Dictionary, Sixth Edition. [For those of you aware of the new
definition of MONEY put forth in Black's seventh edition, I refer you
to APPENDIX E in the links section at the bottom of the
page.]
Does not embrace
NOTES, as in Federal Reserve NOTE, nor does it embrace
DEBT, as in the debt upon which the Federal Reserve Note is
issued. As you can see, Federal Reserve Notes do not qualify as
money by definition. Federal Reserve Notes are a
medium of exchange, are debt currency, but are not money. Because they are private commercial paper, there is
a usury charge that we call interest. If you were using true
money for a medium of exchange there would be no interest or usury
charge.

Attorney Considerations
"It is a fact that a student can graduate from this, the fourth largest
law school in the United States, without ever having written a
pleading, a contract, a will, a promissory note or a deed. Its
worse than that. It is a fact that most students graduate from
this law school without ever having seen a real honest to god
pleading, contract, will, promissory note, or deed. A student
can graduate without ever having set foot in a court room. Or
without ever having spoke to or on behalf of a person in need of
counsel or advice. A student can graduate without once being
exposed to operation of the rules of court. Whatever else can be
said of this license issued by the State Bar, let be said that for
these students and their clients, it is a cruel hoax." Professor
James Neilsen;
Hastains School of Law
Represent
yourself?In cases of "The
People vs. The Average American", attorneys loose 94 cases in a
hundred. Have you ever heard the old saying: "Anyone representing
himself has a fool for a client." Take this into
consideration. Those people who reject representation by an
attorney and choose to represent themselves, knowing nothing of the law
or court room procedure, will win 16 times out of a hundred. That's right, you can go into court knowing nothing about the
law, represent yourself and change six wins in a hundred to
sixteen. Learn a little bit about the law and you will prevail
between 70 and 80 percent of the time in court. There is
a price for ignorance, actually, it's quite expensive.

Education
What do we
know? And of that knowledge what portions can we be certain are
valid? Our formal education generally begins in public
schools. Schools that are ‘DEPARTMENTS' of a corporation. Within the Department of Education, the curriculum is controlled. The corporations that we call government, have goals and agendas far
removed from what we might think.
When we really begin to think we must first ask ourselves "Do I think
or am I a parrot?" Am I an individual or a sheep in the
herd? How easy am I to lead around? How easy am I to
herd? Do I accept the beliefs of others to be accepted by others,
or maybe to be part of a larger group (herd). The philosophy of
safety in numbers.
John Dewey was an 'educational philosopher' who managed to establish
himself at Columbia University as the dominant figure and perhaps the
most influential man in American education. His influence may be
measured by the fact that at one point (and perhaps still today) 20%
of all American school Superintendents and 40% of all 'Teacher
College' heads received advanced degrees from Columbia
University.
In 1897 Dewey published one
of his works titled "My Pedagogic Creed". In this work Dewey saw
the destruction of a child's individualistic traits as the primary goal
of education. Once this was accomplished the youngster would
conform or adjust to whatever society he finds himself located. The prime measuring stick of a child's progress then becomes his
ability to 'get along with the group' (herd). And take a look at
where we are at today!
At one time, we parents got together and hired a teacher
to educate our children and education was a private, not public
enterprise. Turning education over to government is much like
having the fox train the chickens on how to stay alive. Why we
are so foolish as to think that making a slave master responsible for
education is an appropriate or desirable thing is beyond my ability to
understand. Slave masters only want people who are sufficiently
educated to perform a useful task and not sufficiently educated to
understand their status, their political environment nor how to change
either.
"We have become the new American Slaves. But there
is a revolution coming. It is a revolution of individual
liberty. It will free us without violence. It will begin
with the self. It will spread to the work place. It will
turn our corporate masters into our servants. It will free us of
governments' tyranny. The revolution will spread to all corners
of the nation and at last, we shall be free." From the book Give
Me Liberty by Gerry Spence.

The
Press
The press has an
important
role and that role is outlined very clearly by John Swinton, who at the
time of this quote was the Chief of Staff at the New York
Times and considered as the Dean of his profession by his peers. The quote is actually a 'toast', given at a luncheon to celebrate
the independence of the press.
"There is no such thing, at
this date of the world's history, in America, as an independent
press. You know it and I know it.
There is
not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions,
and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in
print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the
paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid
similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so
foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking
for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in
one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be
gone.
The business of the journalist is to destroy the
truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of
mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an
independent press?
We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the
scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we
dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the
property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."
John Swinton, Chief of Staff, New York Times.
Adversarial System
I have made the point more than once that our legal system is adversarial. That you must be willing to stand up for yourself.
In U.S. vs. JOHNSON (76 Fed, Supp. 538), Federal District Court Judge James Alger Fee ruled that...
"The privilege against self-incrimination is neither accorded to the passive resistant, nor to the person who is ignorant of his rights, nor to one who is indifferent thereto. It is a FIGHTING clause. It's benefits can be retained only by sustained COMBAT. It cannot be claimed by attorney or solicitor. It is valid only when insisted upon by a BELLIGERENT claimant in person." McAlister vs. Henkle, 201 U.S. 90, 26 S.Ct. 385, 50 L. Ed. 671; Commonwealth vs. Shaw, 4 Cush. 594, 50 Am. Dec. 813; Orum vs. State, 38 Ohio App. 171, 175 N.E. 876.

I certainly believe that
defending ones county to be the honorable
thing to do, but our battles and conflicts have been engineered for a
long time now.
Little Play Soldiers
Two little
soldiers,
their games are such fun,
each with his helmet
and little toy gun,
Pretending they're lying
on some battlefield dead
after their tucked away
safe in their bed.
Chorus:
Little play soldiers
if only you knew
what kind of battles
are waiting for you.
Quiet, don't disturb
all that innocence of youth.
Tell them not to lie
but never tell them the truth
That men will fall and die
while little boys grow
but little play soldiers
are too busy to know.
Chorus
Little white crosses
and their rows are so long.
How will it end if you
don't know it's wrong?
Little play soldiers
never know why,
we love them and kiss them
and send them to die.
Chorus
Two little soldiers,
their games are such fun,
each with his helmet
and little toy gun,
Soon they will lie
on some battlefield dead
'stead of tucked away
safe in their bed.
All you little soldiers,
if only you knew,
what kind of battles
are waiting for you

"We of this mighty western Republic have to grapple with the dangers that spring from popular self-government tried on a scale incomparably vaster than ever before in the history of mankind, and from an abounding material prosperity greater also than anything which the world has hitherto seen.As regards the first set of dangers, it behooves us to remember that men can never escape being governed. Either they must govern themselves or they must submit to being governed by others. If from lawlessness or fickleness, from folly or self-indulgence, they refuse to govern themselves, then most assuredly in the end they will have to be governed from the outside. They can prevent the need of government from without only by showing they possess the power of government from within. A sovereign cannot make excuses for his failures; a sovereign must accept the responsibility for the exercise of power that inheres to him; and where, as is true in our Republic, the people are sovereign, then the people must show a sober understanding and a sane steadfast purpose if they are to preserve that orderly liberty upon which as a foundation every republic must rest."President Theodore RooseveltOpening of the Jamestown ExpositionNorfolk, Virginia, April 26, 1907
In the quote above Teddy Roosevelt is telling us that if we can not be responsible for ourselves then someone will assume the role of parent and accept the responsibility of our behavior. Such is always the case with children who can not be responsible for themselves and their own conduct. The beauty of this, as President Roosevelt points out, is that we have a choice. Either we can conduct ourselves responsibily and govern ourselves, or we can behave irresponsibly and have some one else dictate our obligations and responsibilities. If FREEDOM requires anything, it requires that we be responsible for ourselves. If we determine that we are children and can not be responsible for ourselves, then we can not be free.
"In a totalitarian state, it doesn't matter what people think, since the government can control people by force using a bludgeon. But when you can't control people by force, you have to control what people think, and the standard way to do this is via propaganda (manufacture of consent, creation of necessary illusions), marginalizing the general public or reducing them to apathy of some fashion." - Noam Chomsky
Being patriotic today is difficult. To believe in what so many American's died to provide for us has somehow become distasteful, bordering on evil for some. Yet, those who participated in the revolutionary war, suffering the hardships, sacrificing their property, their families, and in many cases their lives, did so to give us freedom. So why has preserving our freedom become an evil thing to do. Our Constitution is the protection of our freedom and so why is it that those of us who speak out for our Constitution are viewed as radicals or un-desirables? Have we become a people who no longer know how to be free? Does the thought of freedom scare the hell out of us? So much so that we must shout down anyone who openly remembers the tenants of the Constitution, the Declaration of Independence, and the Bill of Rights? To speak openly about the character of government and politicians as both now exist often makes a target of the speaker. So be it...
"It's the primary function of the mass media in the United States to mobilize public support for the special interests that dominate the government and the private sector." - Noam Chomsky
Most of us know that
SOMETHING is WRONG in America.
Those of us over 40 and awake have seen a gradual decline in our
society accompanied with a gradual loss of our freedoms and an ever
encroaching government into our personal and private lives. I have
heard it said that the government always operates lawfully or in
accordance with
law. Well, to this I would assert that fraud and deceit, when used to
take people's property, take children from their parents, undermine a
parent's ability to raise their child as they see fit, imprison
Americans when there is NO INJURED PARTY, turn
the sovereignty of this country over to FOREIGN INTERESTS,
and to create an ECONOMIC TRAP through the use of PRIVATE
COMMERCIAL PAPER (Federal Reserve Notes -
which is not money as that term is defined in Black's Law Dictionary-
sixth edition)
to indenture and enslave the American people in a way that scarcely one
in a thousand can perceive, then this is not only operating unlawfully,
it is a FELONY and a TREASON.
"Each
progressive spirit is opposed by a thousand mediocre minds, appointed
to
guard the past." - Maurice Maeterlinck
This page is about the ongoing erosion of our freedom, how we are losing it and some of the reasons why. The primary defense the American people have, to stop this loss of freedom, is knowledge. Forces that are most difficult to see, and that we may not want to believe exist, do in fact threaten us. Unfortunately, our public school education leaves most of us without the desire to know, or the tools to learn... the desire and ability to read. Yet, the more people who know what is transpiring, the safer we all become. The information that you may download from this web-page brings a scattering of knowledge from many sources together in one web site. There are many things to be learned here. As you learn more you will see more.
"Contempt,
prior to complete investigation, enslaves men to ignorance."
- Dr. John Whitman Ray
The original purpose of creating the web site
was to
post a book I wrote. Its title is Perceptions. Its name
is drawn from the method by which the American public has been
psychologically profiled. In effect, we see exactly what we are taught
(profiled) to see and that of which we have virtually no knowledge,
goes mostly un-noticed. It is worse than that. When someone does see
that they are being unlawfully fleeced by government and takes a stand,
we un-educated Americans sit on juries and rubber stamp the unlawful
behavior of government, causing severe injury to our fellow man
through an uninformed guilty verdict. Our world, our reality
exist within our thoughts. So, in a very true sense, to control our
perceptions is the control of our reality. And unfortunately, our
government, with the knowing help of the media, have became masters in
this arena.
"If
you want to make someone angry, tell him a lie. If you want to
make him furious, tell him the truth." - Arthur Schopenhauer
A primary example of this is our perception of
law. Our police, although somewhat well versed in corporate law, have
little understanding of the law of the Republic. In a critical view we will see that many police despise the law of the Republic for it takes power away from them and empowers those whom they are attempting to dominate. The creation of
corporate government
has allowed that corporate government to operate un-constitutionally...
that is unlawfully. It is our Perception that
anything
that is sanctioned by law is also legitimate, but in corporate law, it
is
quite often the exact opposite. But, by controlling our Perception
of the law, they control our beliefs in this arena.
"All
truth passes through three stages. First it is ridiculed, second
it is violently opposed, and third it is accepted as self
evident." - Arthur
Schopenhauer
The web site has now grown some distance beyond
my book
and there are now many other fine documents here to read. Of course, I
hope that in reading the other documentation available here, you will
still find time to read Perceptions.
"In
a time of universal deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary
act." - George Orwell
In reading PERCEPTIONS many of you will learn that law of the Republic can not compel a specific performance. Law of the Republic can not compel you to have a drivers license to travel in your car, can not compel you to have registration and license plates to travel in your car, can not compel you to obtain a license to engage in a business, can not compel you to get a license to marry, can not compel you to register for the draft. In order to compel these specific requirements corporate government needs a contract. However, through their control of our public education, government has made certain that we are not fully educated and informed on these matters.
"politics. Organized violence & deception" - Marc Stevens
Providing an example of the control exercised over public education. The original citizen of the Republic is the State Citizen. United States citizenship was put forth for the first time in the 14th amendment and this citizenship status rests in the District of Columbia... Washington D. C. That jurisdiction is outside the Republic, it is exclusive not inclusive. In a simple example, we are not subject to the income tax laws of France because we are not French citizens and part of that jurisdiction. The income tax laws used throughout the United States are laws of the jurisdiction of the District of Columbia, not of the Republic. Consequently, to have the authority to apply these income tax laws to we Americans, it would be necessary for us to be citizens of the District of Columbia. Because United States citizenship rests in the District of Columbia, and because when we joined Social Security we checked the box that indicated we were citizens of the United States and then signed that document under penalty of perjury, making ourselves subject to the laws of that jurisdiction by contract. Not much different than joining the military. And we will remain subject to these corporate laws until we conclude our contract and return our status back to purely and only citizen of the Republic of these united States (not the United States). The term "united" is not capitalized because it is an adjective, not part of a formal name. You may also notice the term "these", the correct usage for several states united as opposed to the singular reference, "THE UNITED STATES", which would refer to the corporate United States. With our citizenship resting in the jurisdiction of the District of Columbia, we would be subject to the tax laws of that jurisdiction (I bold and italicize the term District because that is how the Constitution refers to this jurisdiction). Americans who hold only State citizenship would not be subject to those tax laws, no different than they are not subject to the tax laws of France and for the same reason. They have no attachment to either jurisdiction. There is much to learn about this corporate structure, State, County and City, all of which gain their existence in the laws of the District of Columbia. So, would a person who holds only State citizenship be subject to the corporate laws of the corporate States, Counties and City's? Well, you are going to have to do your research here to find out. But this paragraph should be enough to intrigue you to dig further.
What product or service should be provided through force and violence, or at the end of a gun barrel? If you support the concept that force or violence or a gun is appropriate to compel anyone to accept a product or service, then you open the door to have the same force, violence and gun used against your children to force them to accept a product or service. Remember this when you sit on a jury.
You may now note that because we are not fully educated and informed, we have unknownly and unwittingly entered into one or more contracts with government. These contracts place some of us in their corporate jurisdiction. Even those who have no contracts with government, may have action taken against them by Police Officers and other government agents who have not a clue about these matters. If the individual under attack lacks the knowledge and education to contest and dispute corporate rules (read corporate laws), and lacks the ability to properly communicate with the goverment agency pursuing them, and has little or no understanding how to defend themselves in court, then the government is probably going to proceed against the individual as though they have jurisdiction to do so, even when they may not. Law is adversarial, if you do not stand up to claim your rights, and do so in substance, then you have no rights. The contracts we enter with corporate government give the corporate government extraordinary powers over our lives, but as you can see in the previous paragraph, the control is established through fraud and deception. Therefore is it valid?
"If you want to understand how a particular society works, you have to understand who makes the decisions that determine the way a society functions. In the U.S., the major decisions over what happens in a society (investment, production, distribution, etc.) are in the hands of a relatively concentrated network of major corporations, conglomerates, and investment firms. They're also the ones who staff the major executive positions in the government, and they're the ones who own the media, and are the ones who are in the position to make decisions. They have an overwhelmingly dominant role in the way life happens, what's done in this society." - Noam Chomsky
Challenge the jurisdiction... How, When & Where did government gain jurisdiction over your life? Other than violence, how do they gain control of your life? The Declaration of Independence says, "That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed..." Do you remember giving your consent to be enslaved and controlled in every aspect of your life? I certainly do not. The words in the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence are important because they are foundational law. That is to say, it precedes all other law and comes before it. That is why the CONTRACT is so necessary, or lacking a contract, government will settle for ignorant people who know not how to challenge the jurisdiction or secure the rights set forth in these founding documents.
"War is a serious business, and in a totalitarian society, the dictator simply says 'we're going to war' and he marches. In a democratic society, the theory is that if the political leadership is committed to war, they present reasons. The role of the media at that point is to present the relevant background, ...and to offer a forum of debate. That never happened. 99.9% of the discussion excluded the option of a peaceful settlement." - Noam Chomsky, on the media during the period of time leading up to the Persian Gulf War
It would seem reasonable that parents who are both knowledgeable about citizenship and actually care about their children, do not allow assignment of a Social Security number to their new born child. Nor do they allow a government issued birth certification to be created and then registered with the Bureau of Vital Statistics, placing the child into international commerce. The parents will settle for a hospital issued birth certificate or simply enter the birth into the family bible (a valid recording of a birth under the laws of the Republic). They also know that, if they themselves, are in the corporate jurisdiction, they can not claim this free born child on their income taxes. Corporate government only allows you to claim that for which it (corporate government) has responsibility.
"These are not just academic exercises. We're not analyzing the media on Mars, or in the 18th century, or something like that. We're dealing with real human beings who are suffering and dying and being tortured and starving, because of policies that we are involved in – we as citizens of democratic societies are directly involved in and responsible for. And what the media are doing is ensuring that we do not act on our responsibilities, and that the interests of power are served, not the interests of suffering people and not the needs of the American people who would be horrified if they realized the blood that's dripping from their hands because of the way they're allowing themselves to be deluded and manipulated by the system." - Noam Chomsky
When a parent acquires a Social Security number for their child it is tacit admission that this parent can not be responsible for the child. In effect, the acquisition of the Social Security number makes the government responsible for the child and once they (government) accepts that responsibility, government feels empowered (properly so) to make decisions on behalf of their responsibility to limit their liability. This is why government can take the child from its parents. In effect the government has become the parent, and the parents have become the baby sitter. And the government parent will allow the baby sitter to keep the child so long as the baby sitter does everything demanded by the government parent. And so, if someone who reads this is having custody problems with government, it is because you have determined that you can not be responsible for the child and have entered into a contract to absolve yourself of responsibility of the child. That contractual nexus is the source of your abuse and if that be your choice, you probably should have the abuse. It is only when you can be responsible for yourself and your children, and do not contract that you have the status necessary to end the abuse. Then all you need is the knowledge. If I sound a little heartless allow me to say, "I don't hold a candle to government and our legal system."
"My work is not directed to intellectuals, but to what are called 'ordinary people.' And in fact what I expect from them is exactly what they are, that they should understand the world and act according to their decent impulses. And that they should try to improve the world." - Noam Chomsky
The ignorance of the American public is a reflection of the performance of our public school system. In defense of the teachers and school administrators, most of them are educated in the same public school system as the rest of us and so their lack of knowledge might be excused on that basis. What is not excusable is when these teachers and school administrators have the opportunity to know the truth and they choose not to know. This is not excusable. Teachers, by virtue of their profession, should be the first to seek the truth, setting the example for the student. Then, once knowing the truth, they should begin teaching it. Because they have not done this is one of the primary reasons that America is in decline.
"The mark of a stupid man is not that he
does not know, it is that he does not want to know." - Michael H. Keehn
Which also points out why truly private education comes under attack. There was a time in America when we parents got together and hired a teacher to educate our children. The teacher, answerable to we parents, provided a generally good education in their one room schools, where older and more advanced students provided instruction to the younger and less advanced. By being involved in teaching younger students, older students became even more educated and knowledgeable. But in a system like this, one that is not sanctioned by government license or government funding, there is formed a block that prevents corporate government from controlling the outcome of the process.
"I'm helping people develop intellectual self-defense... I don't mean go to school, because you're not going to get it there... It means that you have to develop an independent mind, and work on it. That's extremely hard to do alone... The beauty of our system is that it isolates everybody. Each person is sitting alone in front of the tube. It's very hard to have ideas or thoughts under those circumstances. You can't fight the world alone. Some people can, but it's pretty rare. The way to do it is through organization." - Noam Chomsky
Undoubtedly one of the most detrimental changes to happen to the American landscape was the take over of education by government and forced schooling. Ever wonder why children behave as they do? Have you gave consideration to the fact that when they are in school they are in a prison, and just like a prisoner they don't have a choice? What is now needed is a return to the previous system of private education or at least a system not controlled or sanctioned by government. If someone in your community were to start a private school, not sanctioned or funded by government, you would be well advised to investigate and consider enrolling your children. Knowing ahead of time that the press and public schools will do everything in their power to discredit such a school.
"Modern industrial civilization has developed within a certain system of convenient myths. The driving force of our industrial civilization has been individual material gain, which is accepted as legitimate, even praiseworthy on the grounds that private vices yield public benefits, in the classic formulation. Now it's long been understood, very well, that a society that is based on this principle will destroy itself in time. It can only persist with whatever suffering and injustice it entails, as long as it's possible to pretend that the destructive forces that humans create are limited, that the world is an infinite resource, and that the world is an infinite garbage can." - Noam Chomsky
Some people are so frightened by what is being presented here that is likely they will not want to know anything about it. When such an individual is presented with the potentials asserted in the paragraphs above, a frightened individual is likely to say to himself (and perhaps to others), "WHAT A BUNCH OF B-S", while at the same time putting on an indignant, macho, fearless facade. And so these individuals pave the way to remain ignorant, avoid responsibility, and perhaps provide a catalyst for others to remain just as ignorant and uninformed. I suspect that it will primarily be those who can think of someone beside themselves who will wish to know more. Who will take the time to truly educate themselves. But this is as it has always been. We never see the selfish sticking out their necks for anyone, do we educators?
"At this stage of history, either one of two things is possible: either the general population will take control of its own destiny and will concern itself with community interests, guided by values of solidarity, and sympathy and concern for others; or alternatively, there will be no destiny for anyone to control." - Noam Chomsky
The research and effort that was required to write the book "PERCEPTIONS" was not done to make a profit nor because I did not have anything else to do. The current version of "PERCEPTIONS" is my 28th re-write of this document. It began as a simple presentation of some basic information of only a few pages. But as knowledge was acquired and understandings gained, I felt compelled to include them in the book. And so there have been many re-writes and a growth in the size of the book. It branches into many areas and provides some basic understanding of several subjects. It is intended to empower the reader and also to indicate some of the responsibilities we have as citizens. In the end, all we have to protect us and our loved ones is each other. And I would feel much better if an informed individual sat in judgement of me rather than a person whose only understandings come from public schools and government controlled media (read newspapers and magazines).
"This
conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is
new in the American experience. The total influence -- economic, political, even spiritual -- is felt in every city, every State house,
every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for
this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications.
Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure
of our society.
In
the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of
unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the military-industrial
complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and
will persist.
We
must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or
democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and
knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial
and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that
security and liberty may prosper together." - Dwight D.
Eisenhower: in his final address to American citizens, 1961
"Having failed to heed these words of warning from
one of their greatest Presidents, the American people of today have become
virtual slaves to a monolithic monster of war devoid of those ‘spiritual’
values which once made Americans a great people.
And, to full extent of how far they have fallen one only has to look at
the barbarians they have unleashed upon the Muslim peoples of the World." - Sorcha Faal
The reason I have committed so much time and
energy to
this endeavor is because I have a concern. A concern that goes
beyond me, goes beyond my friends, goes beyond my family. My
concern is that those who control our elected officials and the federal
government, its policies, its laws and its policing actions, are
determined to push the American people into an armed
confrontation. Bonner's Ferry Idaho and WACO, Texas are only
extreme examples of this behavior by government and because the main
stream media has not properly nor accurately presented these events to
the American people, we remain mostly ignorant of what occurred.
"The individual is handicapped by coming face-to-face with a
conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists." - J. Edgar Hoover (First head of the FBI)
But these events are played out on lesser scales (meaning fewer people are killed and/or maimed in any one incident) in towns and cities all over America. And although not as many are killed in any one incident there are so many more people murdered in quantities of one, that Waco pales by comparison. All committed, sanctioned and covered up by various levels of government. In so many ways, increasing numbers of our police are brutal thugs who use un-necessary physical violence against those in custody. For those interested in the psychology of custody and control, the Stanford Prison Experiment may be of interest: http://www.prisonexp.org/
"Socialism is just fuedalism with a bad health plan" - Michael C. Keehn
Should those who control our government be successful in pushing the American people into an armed confrontation and prevail, which is a possibility due to their superior armament, the general sheep like nature of the majority of our population, and the poor education of our military and police, then we will be a conquered people no different than we were when we were subjects of the King of England. It is likely that the Constitution, our protection from government, will no longer exist once they have conquered us. Yet, they are continually finding ways to set aside the protections the constitution provides. This occurring with the assistance of uneducated or uncaring police, judges and teachers, the people we would normally depend upon to instruct and defend us. But the setting aside process can only continue so long as we remain ignorant. We cannot be stupid and free at the same time.
Because of my research I know that any power or authority that the government claims to have and exercises, is one that has been conferred upon it by we the people. This concept, no longer taught in American schools, is the foundation of our Representative Republic. It is important for many reasons. As in the case of a young wife and mother, standing in the doorway of her home, holding her ten-month-old infant, unarmed, has not threatened anyone, represents a threat to no one, has harmed no one - although I may have the power, I certainly do not have the lawful authority to target this young mother with a .308 caliber model 700 sniper's rifle and shoot her in the face. The bullet ripping away her lower jaw and severing her carotid artery bathing her ten month old infant in her blood as she falls to the floor of her home. Her screams lasting about 15 seconds before she was gone. This event, played out by agent Lon Horiuchi of the United States Government, occurred at Bonner's Ferry, Idaho. Because I have no such authority, I can not confer such an authority upon government or its agents. Therefore, when government agents kill people, as was done at Ruby Ridge and Waco, Texas, they are doing so outside any authority that could have been conferred upon them by we the people. Which, to me, means that they are acting outside the law. And as we have seen, government protects its lawless agents from criminal prosecution when they are acting on unlawful directives from government. Whenever government agents take action they are doing so in my name (and yours), and I (along with you) have a responsibility to act. One individual can not solve this problem, but thousands of us acting under increased knowledge can begin to make a difference as we sit on juries, as we bring up issues for discussion at city council meetings and any other such political forum, all the way to the presidency. Rather than let politicians determine the issues for elected office, we can determine the issues and ask their position. We can make a difference when we write a letter to the editor of our local news paper. We can make a difference when we sit on a local, state or national law making body. We will make a difference when we discuss issues with associates in clubs and other action groups. Knowledge is truly power and the more people that understand the issues, the safer we all become. Ignorant people are a danger to freedom. Therefore, if you are truly interested in being free, all it takes is for you to spend a little effort acquiring knowledge and understanding, and start accepting the responsibilities that freedom requires.
"I want the Record to show, Mr. Director, that the U.S. Marshals no longer take the "oath" prescribed under 5 USCA 3331 and are not "officers of the United States." [Hedrick v. U.S.] The fact is that these U.S. Marshals, according to the U. S. Government Manual, under Department of Justice, are members of the International Criminal Police Organization INTERPOL), headquartered in France." - Sui Juris, Pardon me but... #5, Authored by Nord Davis
When government agents shot and killed Vicki Weaver, they would say that they were acting in your name and protecting you. I guess that murder is supposed to be OK if it was committed in our name. It's not a very comforting thought for me, that such killing is done in my name. This may someday be a friend or loved family member, but it really does not matter if its just another fellow American. I do not want it done in my name. Do you and I have a responsibility here? Yes we do and we should not avoid it. If I wish to end the murder and killing throughout this world, that is being done in my name, and I wish to see America reclaim its honor and ethics, and avoid what will ultimately become an armed confrontation between the American people, and its out of control government, what are my options?
If anyone lives within an hour or two of Boston, it may be of interest to visit the 'Boston Tea Party' memorial?
There is a plaque memorializing the ‘Boston Tea Party’ and on this
plaque it states that it was actually Opium that was marked as ‘Tea’ that the patriots
threw overboard… it would appear that the British power elite were attempting to do
the same thing to us as they eventually did to the Chinese 50 years or so
later. I don't remember reading this important opium fact in any public school history book, do you?
The killing that is taking place is just an extension of our loss of liberty and freedom. Instead of being protected, we are preyed upon. Therefore, I believe the key to ending this situation is to take the steps to restore our freedom and liberty. In doing this, we will become good citizens who hold their government, and its agents, accountable for their actions. This will become a reality with increased knowledge of the American public at large. If Americans have some basic understandings of what is occurring then we can then began to examine why it is occurring. When we understand why it is occurring, then we can take steps, small as they might be, to end the reasons that our freedom is being lost and government is acting without accountability. As knowledge becomes more widespread, more minds come into play on the problems we face. Some of you may remember the movie titled "THE TEN COMMANDMENTS", staring Charlton Heston. In the beginning the Egyptian slaves (the Israelites) were moving a huge stone for a pyramid. One slave can not begin to move such a huge stone, but thousands of them working together can. And so it is with this type of problem. One person working alone can not correct the problems with government, but when thousands of us begin to pull just a little, we will begin to accomplish our task.
"The individual is handicapped by coming face to face with a conspiracy so monstrous he cannot believe it exists." - J. Edgar Hoover
With this knowledge we can begin to assert and claim our rights. We can participate in our adversarial legal process and contest or dispute government's control over virtually every aspect of our lives. Our rights are guaranteed in our Constitution and founding documents. Rights that many American's died to provide. Has our public schools taught us of the sacrifices the founders of this country made?
"Public sentiment is everything. With public sentiment nothing can fail. Without it nothing can succeed. He who molds opinion is greater than he who enacts laws." - Abraham Lincoln
Have we learned or given any thought to what they endured and what they lost, to provide us with the freedoms we squander? Not really! To do so would provide an attachment and obligation to their efforts and sacrifices. So we are taught very little, mostly just a sanitized examination so that the school system can pretend that it has covered this subject.
Is it generally known among the American people, the difference between "civil rights" and "unalienable rights?" Do most Americans know what their rights are and how to assert them? No, of course not, thank you public education. But with a little effort we can find out. As Sean Connery recently put it, "I got my big break when I was 5 years old... I learned how to read! It's that simple and it's that profound." And so those of us who have had a similar break can begin to expand our knowledge. With knowledge we can began to assert our rights. With knowledge we can help others who are attempting to assert their rights. We can support people who are better equipped by virtue of their education, training and position to end the criminal behavior of government. And believe me, there are those people, both inside and outside of government, who are working on this problem.
We have many tools to deal with a criminal government. By far, our most powerful tool is knowledge. With knowledge we can take a stand, contest and dispute the actions of government that take our productivity and lives from us. We will know how to communicate with any agency attempting to control us against our will. In those communications (generally written and sent certified mail) we will know how to begin making our case. We will know how to educate a jury if taken to trial.
As individuals, one of our most powerful tools is to serve on a jury. As a jury member with knowledge we can vote NOT GUILTY when there is no injured party, rather than just rubber stamp the government's assertions.
To better understand this, we need to know the definition of a "legal fiction". A "legal fiction" is something (or someone) that exists because of the mind of man. For example, 'time'. Time is a creation of mans mind, therefore it is a "legal fiction". A corporation, a creation of mans mind and an artificial person in court, as such it is also a "fiction". No real human being should be harmed to satisfy the controlling lust of a corporate fiction, intent on benefitting itself at the expense of everyone else.
For example when our fellow American stands before us facing a term in prison because he (or she) failed to fill out, sign and file a piece of paper that corporate government calls a '1040 FORM', we might be able to see that no one is injured by this action (no injured party) and vote NOT GUILTY and set this person free instead of rubber stamping the unlawful behavior of government. But "it's the law" you say? Yes, but it is one of those corporate laws applied by contract. A contract that was obtained through fraud and deception. Remember, the unjustified injury you cause to others ultimately becomes an injury to your children by virtue of taking from them, what you have sanctioned taking from others. Now, if there is a true injury to another human being, then there is some accountability and punishment due.
The government is able to enter into contracts with the American people through their control of our education processes. How many Americans, do you suppose, knew that their participation in Social Security was a binding contract? Were you old enough to contract with Social Security when the contract was made? Was there full disclosure? Did you know you would become subject to a corporate body of law? If not, the contract was acquired through fraud and deceit. To get on a jury we will, of course, have to lie. They certainly do not want anyone on a jury that knows right & wrong, the law or their game. But once again, all we have to protect us from the unlawful behavior of government is each other. So serving on a jury is certainly one of the most important tasks of citizenship.
The Problem & the Challenge:But the biggest problem by far, is that good people do nothing. They don't read it or they don't absorb its meaning, and they don't pass it on with their own encouraging words so that friends and relatives will read it. In the words of Jean Francois Revel, in his book "the flight from truth"
"My principle aim has been to determine the reason people so often neglect the factual information available to them and prefer to base their conceptions and indeed their actions on false information, even though it is often against their best interest to do so."
If the general apathy of the American people continues, I believe that many young men, and now women and children (witness WACO) are going to die. They will die because apathy and ignorance will allow this to happen. American's want to believe they are a good people, and they are good people who generally don't want to read anything that is not funny or entertaining. Good people who don't want to accept the responsibility of good citizenship. Good people who want to live in their fantasy 'la la land' and certainly have no intention of recognizing that 'la la land' is not what it appears. Good people, who it seems, can only think of themselves. Well, we know this isn't true about you, otherwise you would not have read this far. A good friend has suggested that people are apathetic because people don't want to leave their comfort zone. I do not like to think that we are that immature as a people, but he may be right. If we are unwilling to leave our comfort zone we may someday find ourselves overcome by inescapable danger.
There are patriotic people out there just like me and the numbers are growing. I've come across doctors, lawyers, business owners, and ordinary workers like myself who have done their research and are knowledgeable. And just like me they are frustrated because for the most part, friends and family don't take them seriously, don't take any time to talk with them and hear what they have to share and to say, or just want to write them off as a kook. Therefore, may we ask the question: "When your life and its way are being threatened, and when the lives of those you purport to love are threatened in the same manner, and you don't want to know about it - who is the kook? "
How many people are going to ultimately pay the price for our apathy. How many have already died or are imprisoned because we don't want to be responsible, because we don't want to educate ourselves? How many have died world wide because of our phony baloney invasions that we engineer as a means of taking over the resources of another country? How many more will die because we don't want to pass information on to friends and family and help them become educated. In the end, it might be you.
I'm certain that the people who lived at Mt. Carmel, going about the business of conducting ordinary lives, raising their children, trying to live by their beliefs in God (not my beliefs in God), trying to provide for themselves and their families, felt just as you do today. That they have no worry and will not become targets of a federal agency and ultimately become shot, tormented, tortured and finally incinerated.
After the events of Waco, some American's said, "They got what they deserved!" Did they? Prior to being attacked, who had they harmed? No one, that's who. The FBI and government agents told us all that they were concerned about the children, and yet these same government agents killed 22 children. Are we awake enough to see some sort of inconsistency here, a dichotomy? Some people I have spoke with don't want to accept this fact (I suppose they would have to leave their comfort zone or they may not be able to feel good about themselves if they do). And, as far as I'm concerned, they shouldn't feel good about themselves... none of us should. I don't. Greater security comes with knowledge, not denial.
Some people say that David Koresh fathered several children with young girls. My response to that is... "Is this any different than a good number of church leaders today who molest not only young girls, but also young boys?" And what do we do about that? We certainly don't go kill 80 plus people.

There is a great deal of understanding to be gained in reading the documentation available at this web site. Perceptions is presented in a manner that an average person can understand. Knowledge is the one thing that can not be taken from you. Your home, car, appliances, properties can all be repossessed, or like your bank account, may be confiscated. But your knowledge can be neither repossessed or confiscated. For young people there is a wealth of understanding that can help you plan your future and direction in life.
The thrust of Perceptions

November 2003: I have completed reading Trance Formation of America, available at http://www.trance-formation.com/. To our leadership, that is our congressmen and senators, I have this to say: It is clear from the reading of this book that you can not be trusted, period. Many of you have obviously known of this situation by virtue of participation and even if you have not participated directly, you have sanctioned the continuation of this criminal activity by virtue of your silence and refusal to do your job and see that justice is served. The very minimum you could have done is to inform the public. And, to my knowledge, not one of you have done so. For those Americans interested in the depth of our problems this book is a must. It deals with mind control of people who are not volunteers. This particular book deals with one lady who was rescued by a truly selfless man. Because of his knowledge he was able to help her recover her mind and memories. The mind control practiced on Kathy O'Brien was trauma based. The victim is subjected to a severe trauma, which causes the mind to compartmentalize... what we know as multiple personality disorder. The mind does this to deal with the trauma and still remain functional. Typically, these compartments are not able to communicate with each other. Kathy was used in a number of capacities. One of these capacities was that of message courier. It turns out that one of the offshoots of trauma based mind control, is a photographic memory. Kathy would be traumatized, then programmed with a message to be delivered to a foreign minister or dignitary. That individual was given a phrase to access that part of Kathy's mind which contained the message, and it would be delivered, verbatim, even with the same voice inflections as the person who programmed Kathy. In other capacities she was used as a prostitute, mostly by our sick government officials, but also by leaders and dignitary's of other countries. Important to notice is the fact that there has been no law suits of libel or slander filed in the several years that the book has been out. From this it is clear that those named in this book, and there are many, do not want this information testified to, under oath, in open court! As Americans and people who actually care about our country, we probably owe it to these people to read their story. In my case, after reading my initial copy, I purchased another $400.00 worth of additional copies and gave them to friends and libraries. We all need to do what we can.
THE END OF AMERICALETTER OF WARNING TO A YOUNG PATRIOT by Naomi Wolf
This book details the steps necessary to destroy a free country (the united States of America). And that those steps are currently being taken in America today. Knowledge is truly power. Our lack of knowledge has caused us considerable harm. It is books such as these that allow us to understand our situation, and to share that knowledge with others. The more people who know and understand, the safer we all become. The idea is to implement peaceful change and restore our freedoms. Naomi is an excellent researcher and she has presented the material in a manner that most anyone can understand. I have purchased extra copies to give away and all I ask in return is that the person who receives this book, buy a copy and give it to someone else who will do the same. That is, read it, purchase a copy and pass it on to someone who will read it, purchase a copy and pass it on. I believe it is time that we stop accepting those who want the benefits of freedom, but remain unwilling to do anything to help maintain or restore freedom. We all need to to our part!

Open letter from world scientists to all governments: Posted May 19, 2008: For many years now (since the early 1990's) I have been aware of the intent of the world elite to reduce this worlds population by whatever means is available. And although many have dismissed this assertion of knowledge, it is clearly set forth on the Georgia Guide Stones, which are massive granite stones with a message to the world, in no less than eight languages. The first goal set forth on these stones is the reduction of the worlds population to 500 million. Given today’s world population, this means that 9 out of 10 of us are going to be eradicated under this goal. That is 9 of 10 clerks, 9 of 10 truck drivers, 9 of 10 teachers, 9 of 10 police officers, 9 of 10 judges, 9 of 10 of everyone except the world’s elite. This open letter is 4 pages in length with 19 pages of support references and signatories to the letter, their titles and qualifications. The letter targets GM (Genetically Modified) food. It reveals the dangers of GM food to human health and cites the fact that genetically altered vegetation kills the pollinators (bees and others). It goes on to inform us that genetic altered vegetables leads to the evolution of new viral strains that will threaten mankind and be resistant or immune to antibiotics. This is not going to happen, it is happening! This document relates directly to your health and survival, and the health and survival of your children and other loved ones. Therefore, as much as we don’t want to, we all need to read this letter and understand its content.

Understanding the United States Legal System: Posted November 8, 2008: This short 2-page essay may lend some understanding the legal landscape of the United States. If an individual understands the principles contained in this document, they will have a much better chance of prevailing in a legal setting. There is nothing like knowing the object or goal of the game to have a better chance at winning.
Dot #1, The Currency; Dot #2, War & Emergency Powers. Posted October 27, 2008: These documents are intended to be printed and shared so that knowledge and understanding on topics of importance is available in a brief and short essay. Feel free to share them with friends, family and government officials. Dot #1, The Currency, explains that money, as we know money (Federal Reserve Notes) will ultimately destroy the United States as we know it through economic collapse. The knowledge is not new, but it is not presented in the media or the public schools. Consequently we are not knowledgeable of these matters. Dot #2, War & Emergency Powers will inform the reader that his status may not be what he thinks it is. The Trading with the Enemy Act of October 6, 1917 gave the president authoritarian control over the commercial activites of any enemy operating within our borders. This was at a time when the country was working on World War I. But this act excluded the people of the United States. However, the language of this act was brought forth and made part of the Banking Relief Act of March 9, 1933 and applied against the people of the United States. In this, an act of war was applied against the people of the United States. This has the effect of making the people of the United States an identified enemy, giving the President the authority to regulate them in every commercial activity. Thus, it only became necessary to convert all our regular and ormal activities into a commercial activity in order to regulate us in everything we do. As a result, building a home to house our family became a commercial activity, roofing our home became a commerical activity, putting new siding on our home became a commerical activity, adding a room became a commercial activity, drilling a well for our water to drink became a commercial activity, traveling in our carriage (car) became a commercial activity, working to earn money to feed our family and ourselves became a commercial activity, military service is a commercial activity, school became a commercial activity, church bake sales became a commercial activity. Playing tennis is not a commercial activity at this time unless it occurs on public tennis courts where there may be curfew regulations.

How Long Can We Keep Our Eyes Closed?: Posted July 8, 2007: This document contains an op-ed piece taken from a recent edition of our local news paper. It examines some recent police actions within our country and suggests that we may have some concerns.
An Educational Letter: Posted July 1, 2007: This letter is written by a Canadian and although it is addressed TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, it is clear that it is targeted for government officials and agencies. It is posted here because it has merit and use in the American legal landscape, remembering that the Constitution mandates a Republican form of government and that the law of the Republic is the common law. It hinges strongly on the "Rule of Law" which states in part, that conflict is avoidable, unnecessary and undesirable and that when it raises its head we are to deal with it using discussion, negotiation and then if necessary, adjudication in a court of competent jurisdiction.
Rule of Law: Posted July 1, 2007: Support information for the letter above and is the same link as in the above text. The "Rule Of Law" is foundational to the system of government here in America and should be taught in the American school system and understood by all Americans.
An Enormous Crime: Posted June 2, 2007: In the earlier days of this web site, I had reservations about how strongly I suggested that government has become criminal. But now, over 10 years later, I suspect that a large segment, if not a majority, of the American people have began to realize that government has become criminal, although they probably have varying degrees of this understanding. This short write up, less than two pages, covers the topic of An Enormous Crime committed and covered up by government officials of the highest level. The write up is a synopsis of a book now available and I leave it to the reader to determine its merit.
Iran: Posted April 4, 2007: Are we about to loose our soul?
Where's The Gold? Posted November 25, 2006: I received this document as an e-mail, without the author noted, but it is a document worthy of sharing. It is short and very informative. I have made some commentary at the beginning so as to make it more understandable to less informed reader and I have also made some minor edits. The document essentially informs the reader that the money and other earnings transferred to government are done so as a gift that you voluntarily make. The trick is to quit volunteering. This author, like many, have knowledge to share and have taken the time so share that knowledge, and in this case without credit. Thank you.
The Belligerent Claimant: Posted November 22, 2006: Many of us have been to court and been denied certain aspects of our defense, been denied the latitude to ask certain questions, been denied the means to be successful in defending ourselves. That is what this document is about... how to overcome these limitations and be successful.
Signing Without Liability: Posted November 22, 2006: Those of us who have been studying the methods of government for some time are aware of the strawman issue. Those who are not, it is simply this... the creation of a strawman (a fiction) to whom the individual (real human being) can be held liable for. The goal is not to be liable for this fictional character who was created by government as a means of defrauding us of our hard earned money. And that is what this document is about, how to be free of liability of our strawman. For those who need a little more understanding, I have included a primer, written by myself, that should provide a foundational basis needed to understand the document. Those with a fair understanding may skip the primer and go straight to the document. This document makes reference to filling a Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statement. To access a U.C.C. Financing Statement (UCC1), click the blue link.
INJUSTICE... the root cause: Posted September 10, 2006: This document suggests that there is a focal point to all the problems we face in our dealings with government. We American's have a profound sense of fair play, and when government engages in actions that tilt the playing field to benefit others at our expense, or take away our freedoms and choices, we become incensed, angered, frustrated, defeated, and loose faith in our government and elected officials. While we may have issues about one thing or another that we feel is un-just, and even though we may become politically active to correct this injustice so near and dear to our heart, there may be a root cause that is central to that which is causing all this un-just policy and actions in government. Although I have been contemplating this subject matter for some time, it was only recently that I was reading a document, composed by another patriotic individual concerned with this country (his country), that provided some knowledge and insight that allowed me to complete my thoughts and compose the document linked here. For me personally, this is where the rubber meets the road. In this writing I am taking note that the emperor has no clothes. I do not provide a great deal of supporting information for the assertions made. It is my hope that the reader will do the necessary research to confirm the or dispel that which is questioned. If you are new to world of government injustice, then this is probably not a document for you. Without some background knowledge and understanding, this document may be a bit overwhelming. In such a case you may wish to first read some of the other documentation available here.
Marc Stevens: Posted August 29, 2007: This is not a link to a document, but is instead a link to a web site. There are several audio clips here that are enlightening. Marc's book, "Adventures in LegalLand" is very informative. In these audio clips, Marc is going to say some things, which, if you are not a little prepared, will not seem to make sense. Sometimes, even to the host of the radio program on which Marc is appearing. Marc's position is approximately as follows: that 'The State" is a corporation or body politic, and as such it is a legal fiction - a creation of the mind of man. In questioning a government agent Marc will ask a question similar to: "Is it your testimony that no crime would be committed if I were not within THE STATE on the day in question?" And the agent will answer, "YES". Then Marc asks, "Factually, what is a STATE?" Remembering that the agent has already testified that Marc was "within the STATE". Now he has a problem, for THE STATE is a corporation and exists only on paper. So was Marc in a "piece of paper"? Or maybe the STATE is the ground. If so, the prosecution evidently represents the ground and how what is the nature of the injury the ground has suffered to cause this action? In reality, THE STATE is really a corporation that exists only on paper and if you understand this, Marc's presentations will make much more sense.
Washington, D.C.: Posted September 8, 2006: A friend forwarded an e-mail whose foundational purpose was to allow me to understand my own perspective or perception of a commonly used term. Since I had been exposed to this particular subject before, I had already developed a fair understanding. However, this e-mail gave me an opportunity to share my development and to include that of the mailing. The e-mail itself certainly has some solid information to share. I found it worthy of putting on the web page for other to cruise.
Invisible Contracts: Posted August 9, 2006: If you have read Perceptions or Sui Juris, Pardon me but... #5, you know that there is corporate law, and there is law of the Republic. Corporate law is applied through contract, even if the corporation is the STATE OF YOUNAMEIT or the corporation you know as THE UNITED STATES. There is a Republic of the united States of America, that is generally known as these United States (not THE United States). The singular reference is the corporate structure while the plural reference is the Republic. That is why the Clearfield (318 U.S. 363) decision is so important. Without a contract (that meets the six elements of a valid contract) government has no authority to compel a specific performance. With a contract, it does not matter whether Congress passed the sixteenth amendment to the constitution (the so-call income tax amendment), because the contract to pay taxes is outside the protections of the constitution. Therefore, no constitutional argument is valid. Government has become a commercial enterprise, operating upon the American people through contract. Quit contracting with government, or strike out those clauses you do not sanction or support when signing a document, and they will not have the contractual language to compel you to do something that you really do not want to do. This document makes that point and does so with great substance. Read this and understand how control is exercised over you.
A Message to Garcia: Posted August 4, 2006: Has anyone else noticed the general incompetence in our population? Order a Deluxe Breakfast to go at McDonalds, 8 out of 10 times the breakfast will be incomplete. Something will be missing. Get to your eating destination and find that the sausage patty is missing, or the syrup, or the extra butter you had requested. Order a Sausage and Egg McMuffin and ask them to include a hot sauce and most of the time the hot sauce will be forgotten. At the local restaurant I order a meal and a small pitcher of ice tea with some extra slices of lemons. In the past year not one waitress has been able to remember to bring the extra lemon slices. I'm reduced to having to grovel to get my extra lemon slices. I just purchased a ductless air conditioner on the Internet in June. I contracted with a professional air conditioning contractor for its installation so that it would be installed efficiently and professionally. It is a one day job, but only if you show up sometime between 0730 and 0830 hours. With the installation date agreed upon 9 days in advance, the installer did not arrive until 11:15 a.m. Before leaving his shop, the installer phoned to find out the sizes of the tubing connections. I told him 5/16 inch and 3/4 inch. Yet, when upon arrival did not have a 3/4 inch flare tool. He did not get the job done in one day so I had to commit a second day from my life to this project. After he left the second day, the unit was placed in service. After being in service 3 hours, I noticed that I could hear something dripping and when I investigated, I discovered that the unit was not carrying the condensation outside and dripping it on the ground. Instead the condensation had soaked my book case and about 200 VHS video tapes. So he had to come back again, but that was a week later. The condensation problem was fixed and the unit placed back in service. One month later the unit is inoperative because the refrigerant gas had leaked out. And so another day from my life had to be committed to this project. That is now 4 days from my life for a 1 day job. However, I believe this last technician is a Rowan. And you won't know what that reference means until you have read A Message to Garcia. This document is for those business owners and supervisors who are locked in a constant struggle to get their workers to carry their end of the stick and be competent at the tasks they are assigned. So that the reader can hit the ground running, this document refers to an event that took place during the Spanish-American War at the turn of the last century (circa 1900).
A Watchmans Word to America: Posted June 30, 2006: This document, a little over 16 pages in length, informs us of events that have taken place (some history) and some that are probably about to occur, and the potential end result. It is probably going to make a number of us uncomfortable. It the case of this particular document, is not my intent to convince anybody to believe it, nor to disbelieve it. My only goal here is to make the information available, so that those who are so inclined, can evaluate it for themselves. After reading this document some of us will begin an analysis of our situation and probably begin some preparations for the possibilities that we see.
Law of Equivalent Exchange: by M. H. Keehn. Posted June 6, 2006: A short essay highlighting the fact that in general conduct of our lives, to obtain an object we must exchange something of equal value.
An Underground History of American Education: by J. T. Gatto. Posted April 8, 2006: I've been somewhat critical of public education and that was clear in the "Educational Question", posted below. But my criticism of the public educational system is the view of an individual who feels that the system, in many ways, failed to properly educate. However, there were those teachers along the way that did try to get past the restrictions and limitations placed on them by the system and actually educate us children. But these teachers, even today, run a risk of censure by the system they are dependent upon for their income and survival. John Gatto, a teacher for over 30 years, with may citations under his belt, is much more substantive and researched in his views of public education here in America. His writing style is a little bit scholarly and adjusting to it will take a little effort, but it will be worth the energy required. This book is a must for any parent who proclaims to care about their child or children. Not to read it will be a disservice to them. For the more mature student (those in high school), this book will give you a perspective of the disservice public education has foisted upon you, and all of America in general. Students who read this book will, through the knowledge gained, be able to begin asking questions of their educators and administrators. Questions that may make them uncomfortable, but stay the course student. Be polite, yet demand that your questions be answered. Teachers, hold on, if this takes hold and becomes common knowledge a new wind will begin to blow. This book is on the web and that is where I acquired the text from which to create this .PDF document. View the table of contents here! I have just viewed a 7 minute video on the topic of teaching same marriage to kindergarten children in Massachusetts. It is a little heart wrenching, but if you are interested in the education your child is receiving, it is worthy of your time to view. Here is the link to the video: http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid1815825713
Regulate Who?: Posted March 19, 2005: Updated April 30, 2006: Much of the information in Sui Juris #5 (below) and PERCEPTIONS (also below) is difficult to get a grasp on because of a lack of understanding. This short paper is a kind of bridge to the knowledge that will make understanding of these two other documents a little less challenging. In effect, the people of America have never given the government the authority to regulate them, only "residents" and "commercial activity". Thus the goal for government has been to place Americans into one or both of these categories and that is what this paper is about. Additionally, I have posted IRS form W8 for the reader of this document.
Baby's with no birth certificates nor social security numbers - updated: Posted June 17, 2008: This document, in my view, has not received the attention that is due. I suspect that its importanace may be overlooked. It is a fact that the constitution of the united States of America exists only so long as there are state citizens, or if you prefer, citizens of the Republic of the united States of America. A United States citizen is not a citizen of the united States of America. Look up the term United States in Black's Law Dictionary (sixth edition - it is not listed in the seventh), and you will see that there are three United States. The United States citizen is a citizen of the corporate United States, not of the Republic. This mother has taken the steps to give her child the freedom provided in being a citizen of the Republic of the united States of America and not of the corporate United States. In order to gain a more solid footing in understanding the importance of this issue, I have provided some support information preceeding the original document by the mother. It is a short paper written by a mother who has taken serious the job of parenting. Thinking of someone beside herself (in this case her child) she put forth the effort to understand numerous matters related to citizenship, and contractual obligations acquired through Social Security and Birth Certifications. Both create obligations not generally understood by Americans. By virtue of developing an understanding of these matters she made the decision not to acquire a government issued Birth Certification nor Social Security number for her daughter when she was born. In other words, this mother decided not to burden her child with many of the obligations created by the acquisition of a Social Security number and Birth Certificate. By not placing this child in the government's care, there is no legal foundation for the government to take custody of this child. This lady shares her hospital experience and other information that might be of interest to a parent considering the retention of freedom for their child. For the moment, and probably for good reason, this mother has chosen to remain anonymous, but questions can be routed through this web site.
Perceptions: Complete update October 12, 2008: This book, authored by myself, was began around 1994. Since that time it has been through many revisions as knowledge and understanding grew. In my initial research I learned many things which I suspected my fellow America did not know or of which he was not aware. Therefore, Perceptions contains a fair amount of information on a number of issues and subjects. It is a beginning to understanding, but in no way should be considered the end of your study. The left and right margins, visible here, contain some excerpts from Perceptions. It is pointed and covers numerous topics. For us to prevail over those who are taking control of our lives, we Americans need as many people on our team as we can get. As such you may find this document worthy of sharing with others. There are issues within its pages that angered me when I researched them. They anger me still and that anger does bleed through a bit. I attempted to contain my anger and not allow it to surface within my writing, but, as a human attached to mankind, I was not wholly successful. Perhaps when you read those sections, this emotion will be more clearly understood. Thank you for your acceptance and understanding.
This Acrobat document is in XML format, which, much like the web allows you to navigate via links in the TABLE OF CONTENTS and INDEX. It is a convenient way of quickly navigating the book while viewing it on the screen of your computer.
War & Emergency Powers Conclusion: September 23, 2008. "War & Emergency Powers" is chapter 6 in the book Perceptions (above) and this excerpt is the conclusion to that chapter. It is a short read since it is only the conclusions and may serve to enlighten.
http://www.supremelaw.org/fedzone11/This book is extraordinary and if you truly wish to be something other than a slave (subject), it is a must to read. The Federal Zone may be viewed (and saved) chapter by chapter and appendix by appendix from the web site listed. I have done so myself and have it as reference on my computer. It is now also available on this web site. See the listing in the left margin.
Affidavit of Truth of Citizenship Status: Posted September 26, 2008: In surfing the web I came across this document. It may be of interest to some who are interested in reclaiming their sovereignty citizenhip status (exclusively returning their status to that of Citizen of the Republic of the united States of America). For those that don't understand this reference, you will probably need to brush up on State Citizenship and the difference between this citizenship status and that of citizen of the UNITED STATES. This document was found at http://www.williamduff.com/dufffrazier/exhibit%20d.htm and I am assumming that this serves as a legal notice to some extent. If one were to engage in a course of establishing their sovereign citizenship status, it would probably be prudent to send copies of your affidavit to the state Attorney General and the Attorney General of the United States at a minimum. You might consider including the following wording: "Notice to the Principle is notice to the Agent, Notice to the Agent is notice to the Principle." The one oversight that I see in my first reading is the writers name, which I have changed in this version to "John Quincy: Public". The oversight is not spelling his middle name and following it with a colon, proper form for a name. This form can be seen in "Mary's Book" below, in which Mary properly identify's herself as: Mary Elizabeth: Croft --- the proper form for a name. For those who don't understand, the first and middle names are yours, but the last name is a "Sir Name," which belongs to the family and is not yours alone. Therefore the colon seperates your name from the family name. I caution each and every individual who is considering returning their citizenship status to that of State Citizen or purely citizen of the Republic, to be absolutely certain you understand the step you are taking and be advised that you may well have to present and defend this status in court... in front of a bunch of uneducated sheeple, known as a jury. On the other hand, if no one tries, we all lose. That is why birthing without a social security card or birth cerficicate is so important. And a document written by a mother who did this is avaialable on this web page.
Mary's Book Restructured: Posted August 12, 2007: A Primer for Mary's Book: I have, since the outset, identified Sui Juris, pardon me but... #5, as the best reference and learning text on this web site. And although I still maintain this position, especially for a beginner, Mary's book is a competitor. Mary's book is even more telling than Sui Juris, but to fully understand her presentation, you must alread | |
