What have they done to my Habeas Corpus?



On September 24th 1862 President Abraham Lincoln issued the proclamation suspending the right to writs of Habeas Corpus nationwide. It could also be argued that this was again the case after the Attacks on Pearl Harbor. On Feb. 19, 1942, two months after the attack on Pearl Harbor, Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066, which gave the military the power to designate zones in which "any or all persons may be excluded" for national defense purposes [source: FDR Library]. They were essentially detained with no charges filed. Following 9/11, President Bush made several attempts with varying degrees of success to revoke the right of habeas corpus. As well as the obvious example of denying habeas corpus proceedings to those detained at Guantanamo Bay, the president attempted, more surreptitiously, to grant himself the power to be able to revoke this basic right for every American citizen. This again was issued under the guise of the National Defense Authorization act of 2007, with the clause to hold any person indefinitely without charges being brought against the person or the nature of the charges being told to the detainee. 
So what is a writ of Habeas Corpus? It is a judicially enforceable order issued by a court of law to a prison official ordering that a prisoner be brought to the court so it can be determined whether or not that prisoner had been lawfully imprisoned and , if not, whether he or she should be released from custody. A Habeas Corpus petition is a petition filed with a court by a person who objects to his own or another’s detention or imprisonment. The petition must show that the court ordering the detention or imprisonment made a legal or factual error. The right of Habeas Corpus is the constitutionally bestowed right of a person to present evidence before a court that he or she has been wrongly convicted. It happened then under Lincoln and it’s been happening again in the present day. But it is rarely ever covered by the mainstream media. So why is this being allowed and when does it affect your life and liberty?
Brandon Raub from Virginia was detained and imprisoned for days with absolutely no charges ever being brought against him. He has been forced to psychological evaluations. Why was this done? Apparently the authorities who were monitoring his social media and other forms of communications felt that the things he was posting to his personal social media account were threatening in nature and that he posed a risk to himself. First ask yourself this question, why were the Authorities monitoring a private citizen who has had no prior issues with the law, in fact Raub served in the Marine Corps and was deployed to both Iraq and Afghanistan. So what were the things he was saying on his social media site that was so inflammatory and threatening? Was it the truth about what our military is doing in those countries, was it an air of concern or disdain for the ways they control his life and restrict his liberties, could it have been that his dissent was enough reason to detain him and force an evaluation of his physiological state?
Another story that is apparently forgotten by the media is the case against Bradley Manning, well really it should be said the case that hasn’t been made against Bradley Manning.  Mr. Manning was a soldier in the United States Army, he has been held for well over 2 ½ years without the knowledge of charges against him. So why are they doing this? It could be that he tried to leak information from the military to WikiLeaks. So what is wrong with releasing this info if would and could benefit mankind and bring to light crimes against humanity. I applaud Bradley Manning for standing up and trying to tell the truth, this should inspire more people to take a stand and do what is right and instead it teaches that you should just be subservient to your government or else you will pay for it.
So with the ever increasing police state and the effects of the unconstitutional Patriot Act, the unfathomable and clearly unconstitutional National Defense Authorization Act or NDAA, we are facing a country with dwindling civil liberties and personal security escaping our grasps at alarming speed. We have to take a stand as concerned people to nullify these laws and measures and to replace our political leaders who push for these kinds of things. With the passing of the NDAA it has become dangerous to tell the truth and expose wrongdoings. Because when the countries only tellers of the truth are imprisoned and tortured, denied civil liberties and stolen freedom, what do we have left to decipher our media, where do we turn for the truth who do we look up to and how do we live with ourselves when TRUTH IS TREASON IN THE EMPIRES OF LIES?

Inherient Truth and Unguided Lies

How much of what is said by our nations leaders do you believe? How much credit do you give to the media? How often do you look at the source of the information instead of just following blindly? How does your apathy and willing ignorance cost us? How do we decipher what is real and what is not? Why do we not call for real unbiased news, why do we not expect truthfulness from our leaders?

When the political figurehead for the country or your state releases information either by audio, video, print or all of the above, how do you know it is the truth, do you care if it is the truth or would being lied to make life easier for you? How do we go through life knowing full well that we are being duped, lied to and deceived yet we take it, we allow it, we encourage it and we willingly accept it as  just another fact of life? When will the time come that our leaders were held to their word and expected to conform to the truth even if it were detrimental to their personal favor in the eyes of the public. When will we as citizens of this country and our respective state require honesty from elected officials and request a open discussion for each side of the issues? When will we have enough of the crap they feed us and say that it is for our own safety and security that we not know too much. I for one would like the truth, I can handle the truth of where my own tax dollars go and what my input into the great society is, I would like to know all the secrets of the scandals and ineptness of our government, then I could make educated decisions on who to vote for and who not to. I would like to know the reason behind our military actions and if there are any alternatives to unwarranted wars of aggression and unparallelled violence. I for one would like to know if my energy and resources are be sent off to foreign lands and squandered by the rich politicians there. I would like to know what is in these executive orders before they are signed and set in place, I would like the opportunity to review each and every bill that gets considered by all branches of government, but I guess you have to be in government to see what they really do.

When will it be acceptable to call for the revocation of licenses for media personnel that in fact deceive us or shade the news in favor of their personal goals or beliefs? When we we say enough is enough and want to review the sources as they are and not construed or misconstrued as in many cases? What if we could just write our own news, as a community, a family of people from the same areas with the same goals, fears,concerns,issues and hopes, and benefit our own towns and cities. What would happen to society if we all heard the truth on the issues from our trusted talking head on television or radio, would we all go crazy or would we be enraged that our lives are controlled and manipulated by the people we have trusted to tell us what is happening in our world. Why will they not tell you both sides of the stories that they air, why do they hide one side from your view? What is the purpose of the media if they are just a form of government controlled propaganda and misinformation, what is the purpose of not covering certain stories and adding good will stories as fluff to aid in the digestion of the false world they portray to your sight and sound? I want to hear what is going on in my community the facts of the matter, the meat of the situation and the ideas and proposals of those involved to remedy or control the situation. I want to hear an honest broadcast spoken to the American public, not dumbed down and filtered for viewing pleasure. I want to see the guy next door to me doing a story about the jackass kid who broke 12 mailboxes down the street and what he is willing to do to stop the situation and then maybe hear from my state representative about issues affecting my state and it's problem. I would like to hear my senators talking about the crap they have to deal with from these lobbyists and peddlers of money for power. I would like there to be truth in the mass media, but until the mass of people rise up and demand it they will forever color our news with their own interests.

How much does it cost us to hear these lies and accept the wool being cast over our eyes? What does it cost that our leaders wont tell us how many people really died in the drone strikes in Syria today, or the fact that cures for cancer have been around for years but the lobbyists for the big pharmaceutical companies and corporations pushing sugar pills and ineffective medicine don't want you to know, Why? because you may not buy their product or take their medicine or die out and have to pay the death tax and be replaced by a new tax paying host to the eternal parasite of greed. What does it cost to not care, to cast your voice and opinion to the wind, wipe your hands of electing officials or even paying attention to the legislation being passed by our overpaid under worked congressmen and women and our state senators. It costs your freedom, your liberty, your money, and ultimately your very life. It would be great if we knew the truth to every matter that really does effect us everyday, but with no objection from the faithful herd of willing slaves, they can continue on with the systematic destruction of human rights, human thought and expression, and the demolition of every personal freedom that our ancestors fought and died to protect. There is always more than one side to every story demand them all. It is not a matter of if and how, but when and with what force!

The Debt of Wealth



     Wealth is what everyone wants but few can acquire, true wealth does not come from material things or vast accumulation of money, true wealth can be secured by various means and in different ways, but the fact of the matter is this, the Federal Reserve notes that we as Americans are forced to use are based on debt. For every Federal Reserve note that is created we are put into further debt, every note created must be paid back with interest. Just as most credit card companies use interest to make a profit for every dollar of your debt, so does the Federal Reserve. With the interest going strictly to profits the Federal Reserve is making money off of making money but that’s not the end. The Federal Reserve also sets interest rates and cause inflation, what this does is force product prices to rise and your note worth less, then you are forced to “need” more Federal Reserve notes to survive the inflation they created therefore creating more notes to tack interest on to. Sneaky isn’t it? And to think you have allowed it all since 1913.
     The creation of debt in your life starts the minute you get a credit card or loan, even debit cards and bank accounts can be a form of debt. When you get your first credit card you feel as though you have unlimited amounts of money, but that’s just not the case. Every time you use that card you are expanding debt, because that card is not money it is a representation of money with interest owed when used. When you extend your credit to the point of exhaustion of a credit line you are in unbearable debt, for every dollar you have spent you will now repay that amount plus interest, at a high enough interest rate you are in an inescapable hole. A loan is the same as a line of credit from a credit card company; they have allowed you to use their money with a promise to repay with an added interest for using that money. A bank account or debit card can even be forms of debt if you are paying for the privilege of using that account or card; you are paying for permission to use a service.
     So can you build wealth with a monetary system that is based on debt and controlled by the Federal Reserve? In a nutshell, NO. The ability to create wealth is inherent on the money or currency used being valued based on something of worth or value, thin air is not valuable but hard metal assets  such as gold and silver are. With a valued metal resource the value of the money would be set by weights and measures. Wealth cannot be obtained by the usage of currency that can be inflated and devalued at will; the usage of a debt based currency will never afford its collectors and protectors any form of wealth.  The usage of debt based currency has in the past been shown to fail every time.
     How do we really acquire wealth? I don’t know that we can in the environment and society that we live in. To rid ourselves of the Federal Reserve would only be a start, getting ourselves back to hard metal assets backed currency would be helpful, but I feel that it truly would take the mass of people to WANT to be educated in the ways of government corruption and unconstitutional direct taxation. The creation of true wealth will be in personal value of items and skills, the value of these would be set by the individual, and in essence everyone has a vast amount of potential wealth depending on their idea of value.  If such a day ever comes that we were not forced to use a fiat currency as the means of purchase of everyday goods we as Americans could acquire true wealth. First we must stop the disease not simply treat the symptoms.

Is there Success in Secession?



     With the rise in the call for state secession by 20+ states I though it fitting to delve into this matter and give my views on nullification and secession. I believe a process must take place before complete withdrawal from this voluntary union can take place. One thing I find disturbing from this round of petitions is that they all have originated from the white house website. The reason I am leery of this is the fact that the petition for state secession should come from the state to the federal government and not from the federal government to the state. If the federal government is putting this out to bait individuals into a trap it would be the first time doing so, but in my eyes not a complete surprise. The reason I say this is the recent push of the Enemy Expatriate Act (EEA). This bill allows the Government to strip away your citizenship at any time based on mere accusations of treason, or calling for secession. In theory by our constitution we the people should be allowed to secede from this tyrannical union at any time and protect our state assets by the use of a state militia. But in many states militias are outlawed and have been ridiculed as being nothing more than drunken backwoods hicks looking to reclaim the glory of the old south. Many in the south have made aware our intentions to secede many years ago; we are seen as racist, backwards, and treasonous.  All of this I will try to explain…..
     I believe there has to be a process to secession and that process should include nullification and the use of sanctions and regulations as the federal government uses them against the states. Nullification in essence is the outright refusal to abide by federal laws when the state government and the state residents believe the law to be in violation of the constitution. The nullification movement has taken off recently as socialized healthcare takes hold of us and the repeal of our 4th amendment rights are stripped away.  With the use of nullification as a first step the process of applying for separation has begun, as with any nasty divorce we must let the government know we intend to do what is right for the state and go against any unconstitutional federal laws. We must warn them of the results of a lost relationship with them and the benefits for the state with the separation. We must use regulations and restrictions as they do now with the state, we must propose a blockade from goods entering or leaving our state. We must try to set up peaceful negotiations with similar states for the benefit for us all. This nation was intended to be a republic with smaller republics working inside of it. This can be done as it was done in the past.
     With the implementation of The Patriot Act the NDAA and the addition to it with the EEA, it has become illegal to be disgruntled with the government and demand answers. So how do we express our grievances with the widespread tyranny in our government, how do we show that we are fed up, how do we cut ourselves out of this union peacefully? I honestly do not think we can, as in the first civil war the federal government will not let us leave peacefully; we will be cast into another war between federal government and state’s rights. The petitions have been started from within the White House. This worries me for two reasons, 1 is that they could be collecting names and state info to use in the implementation of the EEA and to fill up their multiple FEMA camps set up all over this nation. I believe this is just the beginnings of the use of the United Nations Agenda 21. Number 2 is that the calls for secession are not being done in the right manner and in effect are all null and void, the individuals signing these petitions are technically calling for Individual secession and the result may be that it will be granted, but remember the federal government will never give you something that they cannot control.
     The use of secession is the reason the America’s was founded by disgruntled Europeans. These Europeans were not cast out of their homelands they left on their own accord; they seceded from their tyrannical government. The usage of this tactic was used again in American history by the southern states and their supporters, the people of those states called for secession to their state governments.  This country was founded, retained and again fought for on the right to secession. Do I believe it is needed now? Yes in a way I do, I believe that if the federal government is to impose unconstitutional laws and immoral regulations I believe it is the independent states right and duty to remove themselves from the federal union. We have a duty to our posterity to retain our individual rights along with our state rights. It is our duty to fight by use of arms or legislature the right to secede. The method I think is wrong, but the message is what is important. SECEDE OR DIE!

Why do they hate US?



Why is it that we are the target or threat of violence? Why do we always have to play defense? What have we done to deserve this terrorism and extremism?
I have heard these questions and many like them and I have to say it’s very easy to answer. Why are we a target? Because we make ourselves targets. Why do we always have to play defense? Obviously you haven’t been paying attention since World War 2, we have been on an all-out, worldwide OFFENSIVE measure to conquer and reconstruct the world’s largest empire. WE have terrorized and manipulated every country in the world in some way since the conclusion of WW2. What have we done to deserve this terrorism and extremism? What have we not done? We have invaded foreign lands, assassinated their leaders and replaced them with dictators and tyrants only to turn around and overthrow them too. We have starved innocent civilians in an attempt to turn power over to ourselves. We have created and intentionally spread diseases to control and restrict the populations. We have caused blockades and regulations on trade between nations. We have subjected the citizens to ridicule and scorn. We have bombed cities and towns where innocent civilians were killed and no militant forces were found to be there. Yet we are the all-powerful America, we are the light of the earth, the most diplomatic and well behaved country ever, that was sarcasm for those not able to pick it up.  We as Americans have let our leaders put targets on our heads, there are multiple countries in the world that we as Americans just cannot go, in fear for our lives and safety because we allow the behavior of barbarians.
                What can we do but wait, well we could protest and call for an immediate withdrawal of our forces, we can overthrow our own government and establish a more peaceful government, we could not approve of these actions through a completely voluntary tax system and re-election process of our politicians. When the people of this nation realize the effects of being the world police and the destruction force of the world, we could I think move forward as human beings. We have been waging war upon our own people for generations and it has gotten us nowhere but millions of young men and women just like us to be killed and trillions upon trillions of dollars in debt.  What have we gained from this but resentment from the world population who see America as bullies and instigators?  
What can we do but educate our youth our next generation of voters and politicians. We need to instill proper values and morals; we need to rid our youth of the greed and warmongering that has plagued us. We need to educate our future generations on compassion and humanity, before humanity is wiped out altogether. We need a reemergence of personal responsibility and ethics. The bombings taking place every day in nations all over the globe, being perpetrated by our country the United States of America. We have seen from the past the results of totalitarian rule and have entered into the very midst of it again, we have seen the barbaric nature of man yet have embraced its grasp, we have seen the horrors of unfounded fears and hate, yet we as Americans do this on a daily basis. We have to reevaluate our course and alter it if able. We need to take a look at the future we want and the legacy we want to leave behind. Our very humanity rests on the shoulders of the future generation and the education and upbringing that they receive.
But have we answered why they hate US? With the blockade from food and medical services to the citizens of countries based on their government’s actions, with the usage of drone aircraft to kill entire villages, most often with no militant forces in them, with the sanctions and trade regulations, embargoes and outright refusal of goods, why would they hate US, we are the greatest country on earth right? With our history of coups and providing the opposing forces supplies and guidance, with the deception, murder, pillage, fear mongering, accusations, assassinations, betrayal, dominance, offense, and disregard for human life of all forms, why wouldn’t they hate US?  To change the society in which we live we must change the people that we live with.

Where do we go from here?



      I have been asked in the past few weeks, “ what are you going to do after this election, what will your goal be then, what will you be working for at that point, what was the goal in all of this?” I think these questions need to be answered separately, and I will do that here. But remember this is only my opinion and this is only my point of view. If you were in Tampa at the end of August and attended the “We Are The Future” rally some of this may ring true with you, and for those that are reading this abroad it may help if you watch the video of that rally. People say that this movement needs a leader at this point and that after our ideological leader did not give specific direction for some of them they have become lost and distracted by others in the race for the White House. The views and policy of those other running do not coincide with my personal beliefs and so I have not supported them in the way others have. I do believe in and support the libertarian party in the effect that they need the 5% of the vote to become a major party in the next election. I do not however support their candidate.
     
      So what am I going to do after this election? I intend to remain in the political atmosphere and absorb as much information as I possibly can. What I feel is important in the next few years is an education of policy and procedures for the mass of citizens of this country. They make choices based on misinformation and lies, they use name recognition to decide who to elect, and they will not look at public records of which way their elected officials vote and policies they try to impose in their capacity. I plan on getting involved both locally and statewide to ensure policies stay in check and the people can get information on the actions of our political leaders. I plan to educate any person willing to look for knowledge. I plan to work within the parties to get as much done as possible in the preservation of liberty and freedoms. I plan to hold my local representatives to their words and actions, to expose any fraud or misappropriations of state and county funds. That’s how I plan to use my time after this election is over.

      What is the goal? The goal has remained the same; it has not swayed or altered. The goal is to ensure freedom and personal liberty for every man, woman, and child who are citizens of this country, to ensure a true diplomatic end to hostilities in nations and countries all over this globe, to stop tyranny and fight intrusion into our personal lives by government. The true goal of all of this has never been about the group fighting for it but rather the ones who choose not to. The goal is to ensure that everyone gets fair treatment and are secure in their belongings from the far reaching federal tyranny. The goal is to make this country better, both financially and morally. The goal is to educate the youth in the inner workings of government and allowing them access to our government to air their grievances and to ask for reformation and repeal of unjust laws and legislation, to allow them to seek diplomacy in foreign matters. The goal is to ensure that our older citizens are safe in their financial security by allowing the social security system to continue to take care of them and allowing the younger generations to opt out of the system and save by their own means. The goal is to stop the government from running our personal lives.

     I don’t think anyone here wants to go back to the totalitarian rule of the past, and I don’t think anyone reading this would want to live through another economic depression. But by all accounts I believe that is exactly where we are headed if we don’t try to change the course. Remember your values and act on your principles. So what do we do? We continue this revolution and educate the people to the ways and means of the federal government. We fight on, we push the truth, and we remove the lies and manipulation from government one step at a time. If we all continue to do this, we can make a difference and we can save our future. WE ARE THE FUTURE.
