A Notice and Appeal from the People
To Whom It May Concern:
Greetings,
Throughout history people have been obliged to petition their government at sporadic intervals, demanding change and justice. Whenever the prevailing system denies to its citizens the promised Rights, guarantees and relief from trespassers the people have a duty and a Right to petition for change. This Notice and Appeal is presented in that spirit.
Our nation was built upon the precept that Rights are conferred upon each person at birth by their Creator / God (whomever they deem that to be.) Further, the founders proclaimed that those Rights were unalienable: that is those Rights could not be bought, sold, traded away, renounced nor taken by anyone – except as a punishment for an actual crime.
We are a country, which was built upon the foundation of morality and justice. Freedom of Religion; the Right to worship as one’s conscience so dictates were fundamental principles upon which this country was built.
Most freedom loving people believe in the Right to Privacy, the Right to Private Property Ownership and the Right to own Firearms for Self Defense and Defense of Others, which becomes an inevitable necessity in a free world. It is our Right and our inheritance.
In a free society, the elected officials derive their just powers by the consent of those they preside over. In totalitarian societies, the public officials take the liberties through unlawful usurpations of power; through intimidation and force; through corruption and a misuse of police powers and military might.
Historically, people have endured injustice as long as it is tolerable rather than stand united against an oppressive government. But, the people realize that they have an Obligation, a Duty, and a solemn Responsibility to reject tyranny and oppression. We also realize that history demonstrates that Liberties lost are lost forever.
In today’s age, the people have petitioned and used every remedy available under the law to no avail. The usurpers have stolen a nation and have no intention of recognizing God given Rights. Privileges, to be doled out by government, have replaced recognized Rights. A myriad of statutes, edicts, rules, regulations, administrative requirements, government policies, ordinances, executive orders, court rulings, and such like have destroyed the Liberties of the people. In order to substantiate the facts, let us enumerate the transgressions the government has committed against its citizenry:
In the area of Freedom of Religion, the government has reinterpreted the law to say freedom FROM religion. Churches are required to seek approval from the government and given licenses and tax exempt status in exchange for not offending the policies of the federal government. Every reference to the religion of the founders of our nation is met with harsh reprisals. Bibles and religious materials are prohibited on government-controlled property, as is prayer in school and any discussion of religion as it pertains to the predominant religion in this country. By contrast, all kinds of accommodations are made for other religions including, but not limited to their dress codes, dietary laws and methods of worship. A bizarre doctrine of separation of church and state has been initiated whereby religious authorities cannot interfere with the government, but government can breach the wall to interject themselves into the religious doctrines of the church.
Regarding the issue of Freedom of Expression, the government has made it impossible for third parties to field candidates for public office with special requirements they must meet that do not apply to the major two party system. Guarantees of Freedom of Speech have been repealed; those disagreeing with the powers that be risk being classified as enemies of the State, enemy combatants, domestic terrorists or seditionists.
There is the issue of taxation whereby an amendment, unconstitutionally passed, deprives the people of their most valuable asset: the fruits of their labor. The income tax is unconstitutional, illegal, unconscionable, immoral and not enforceable in a de jure republic. Further, our laws do not anticipate nor grant the authority to the government to delegate their responsibilities to third party corporations, which do not answer to the citizenry. The people have been compelled to accept the creation of a banking system which is controlled by a private corporation whose officers are chosen by the banking community and given a rubber stamp approval by the executive department within the federal government. Our forefathers warned that if the people allowed such a condition to be implemented that it would deprive the People of all their property until their children woke up to find themselves homeless on the continent their Fathers had conquered. The foreclosure rate in our nation bears witness to the accuracy of that prediction.
Among the most egregious assaults on the Liberties on the people is the implementation of gun control laws that now number in the tens of thousands. The fact that fewer than one tenth of one percent of the guns in our country ever take a human life is a testament to the over-all value of tools that discourage robberies, murders and many other crimes while insuring our Liberty. Yet those who have no respect for God given Rights argue that we should disarm and trade the false promise of temporary Safety in exchange for our Liberties. It has been observed that the greatest reason for the People to retain the Right to keep and bear Arms is, as a last resort, to prevent tyranny in government. Today, at least ten percent of the States in this Union have virtually outlawed the private ownership of firearms. All different manner of laws to deprive the citizenry of our Liberty teeth have been employed. The use of firearm bans, import bans, limitations on magazines or features and the places in which a citizen can bear Arms have obliterated the Right. Laws have been passed to discourage and prevent the citizenry from using firearms for personal protection and the protection of the lives of others. We are being forced to become willing victims of criminal activity.
The people have been forced to endure the attacks upon their Right to Privacy with the implementation of National Identification, specifically when it is tied to numbers that were issued for tax purposes. In addition, all manner of information is collected; much of it purely personal and the citizenry are monitored from the womb to the tomb, much like prisoners in correctional facilities. The people are spied on, photographed, monitored and investigated for no legitimate purpose. Files are generated and the nation’s leadership has declared that anyone who is not for the current regime is against it; and therefore, a legitimate target for being raided and possibly murdered.
The people are being subjected to warrant-less search and seizures, roving roadblocks and other ID checks. The records of the books the people read in the library are subject to review by law enforcement officials and all manner of electronic communications are monitored via eavesdropping without the benefit of a warrant. Due Process is denied on the most spurious pretext of National Security. The constitutional safeguards put into place by the founders of our country no longer exist, despite the fact that the people have never amended the Constitution.
Both Houses of Congress have sat silently, refusing to institute our Common Language, namely English, as the official language. The government has refused to establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization, despite their legal charge to do so. The immigration laws have not been revised in over half a century and no longer anticipate the supply and demand being placed on immigrants by business, the citizenry and the government, which is now dependent upon foreign laborers. There is no credible Guest Worker Program whereby foreigners can work without the expectation of becoming citizens. Foreigners’ only alternative is to enter the country illegally and such a system creates untold problems that cannot be corrected with band-aid solutions or totalitarian measures.
The government has created mountains of bureaucratic agencies; delegated control to corporations and other people who do not answer to the citizenry. Government agencies create their own laws, maintain their own courts and dole out their own brand of punishment. The courts have become little more than rubber stamps for the hordes of unelected petty tyrants who have developed laws crouched in the terminology of public policy. We are no longer a constitutional republic as we were guaranteed. The people no longer have Due Process, Representative Government or anything that would suggest that this is a Free Nation.
Our forefathers proclaimed before King George that A free born people are not required by the religion of Jesus Christ to submit to tyranny, but may make use of such power as God has given them to recover and support their laws and liberties...
The current government has planned to institute Martial Law in order to force its citizenry to accept the implementation of an unconstitutional form of government and abolish National Sovereignty.
Our own courts have ruled that the people are not obligated to submit to an unconstitutional act. Yet, agents of a government claiming to be ours have placed heavy burdens upon the people. We must choose between being obedient to the prevailing system or being true to our religious convictions. The people have literally been forced to choose between obedience to government or loyalty to the dictates of their conscience. Meanwhile, the current government works to place the people under the yoke of foreign powers, even contemplating Martial Law as a deterrent to the implementation of an unconstitutional government.
Free people do not compromise on matters of God given Rights; we cannot negotiate with tyrants over Rights that were bestowed upon us at birth and not subject to their control.
We, the undersigned, being Citizens and of legal age issue this Notice and Appeal:
That we will no longer tolerate the usurpations of power nor be subject to a yoke of tyranny; that each of us will avail ourselves to that which is legal, proper, necessary and just in the effort to resist a totalitarian government
That each of us pledge to each other our time, resources, commitment and our word of Honor to defend our fellow man from any harm which any branch of government or agents thereof mete out for an individual’s failure to observe any act which violates the Rights contemplated in this Notice and Appeal
We hereby put all government officials, legislators and all others concerned that we retain the Right and the Duty to abolish such government which demonstrates a disregard for the God given Rights of the citizenry, thereby threatening them with despotism, tyranny and / or the atmosphere of repression. We maintain that we have a Right to Life along with the Responsibility to defend lives of family, friends and ourselves individually
We APPEAL to all government officials, whether elected or appointed and regardless of branch of government to cease and desist the enforcement of laws that are repugnant to the Rights enumerated in this Notice and Appeal. We demand the repeal of any law, rule, regulation, statute or such like which conflicts with our Rights. These terms are absolute and non – negotiable. We retain the Right to separate ourselves from the ties that bind the citizenry to the government and dissolve the political bands which tie us together if our Rights are not declared inviolate.
By our signature on this NOTICE AND APPEAL, we demand satisfaction from the leadership in American government and all agencies, corporations and individuals thereof |
