Completely UN American. Reply jim k, austin 12/11/09 Reply Mike, Norwalk 12/11/09 J Carlton, great example. Reply RBESRQ 12/11/09 That's better! Reply cal, lewisville, tx 12/11/09 Great example J Carlton Reply Judith 12/11/09 It would, therefore, seem that the Patriot Act would also be inoperative. Reply Mike, Norwalk 12/11/09 Judith, point taken and you would be right if the statist theocracy that now infests this land would adhere to our representative republic's Constitution. Reply J Carlton, Calgary 12/11/09 Thanks guys....sadly though it wasn't just Blackwater. It was also the Natioanl Gaurd and the NOPD. Makes ya wonder just how far our paramilitary outfits will go on government orders doesn't it? Reply Logan, Memphis, TN 12/12/09 Lex injusta non est lex. Reply Mike, Norwalk 12/12/09 ahh Logan, you do expose your self, very well said! ! OR you could have said for the rest of us, just a simple: 'an unjust law is no law at all' Great legal foundation to implement a representative republic that expresses natural law (as is contrary to despotism, and tyranny). Nice to see you back, you should chime in more often. Reply Waffler, Smith 12/14/09 While obviously correct we must realize that that it sometimes takes years to determine if an act or law is unconstitutional. For an individual to make such a judgement and then disobey the law a law that hee questions is an unconstitutional act in and of itself since only the Surpreme Court can legally make such a judgement.

Do you love paying ( Bowing dow ) money to be able to do something only a Felon would be required to do, an UnFREE man, a FREEman is Never Required to buy a right which is always eternally FREE, what is it about the word 'FREE ' that you don't understand?

Reply Mykyyah, Spring texas 3/29/12 Texas Senators,Texas Representatives, D. A.s , The Governor and Your great wonderfull J. P. All of Them are Not of "The Texan Dream" Not of The Texan Faith , they all also are anti The American Dream. As soon as all the Men won the War over England 'These men met and wrote papers , signed them to make A Law Aganst any man that Carried or Wore openly or concealed a Long Knife or a Handy Survival Sidearm and that all those who would be Representatives and Senators could no longer carry their Pocket Pistols, That from now on it is a crime to be able to stop an attacker, Now every one take you handarms home so the newly formed Police won't arrest you, for you shall be fined , however if you will give you new govt a certain sum of money We Of Course Will By ALL Means Create WAY just fof You, We Now Have become Your Godfather pay us for Insurance AND We will keep the Police From Breaking your arm, and if you bow to Complience volunteraly we shall see to it no fish wrapped in news paper is delivered to you, Now this find day of july 13 1776 we know full well Ye all shall be Secretly treated as Felons just like the real Felons AREN'T We All glad to have this our new Government in full police FORCE, don' Worry, We will wear the guns FOR you, We Will Shoot the Fireworks FOR you every July the 4th We have Provided a deal you can't refuse, cheer up it could be worst we could become Sociallist ( if Red China and Russia will come up with Money) Just think "We'd be National Socialist like our Father 'Nazism' No Fret We Will work it out" FOR THE CHILLDREN" Reply Mykyyah Sky Eyes, Spring Texas TimeForMeToMoveOutOfTexas 3/29/12 There is only Four States which Treat their Citizens not as Secret Felons when they have not comitted their first felony Crime. Google Four States which Alow Unalienable Rights open and conceal carry ( No Permission [Permit] Required, No Crime Syndicate (State) Fee by FEEMen, these four States are pro "FREEmen" these have rebuked that FEEmen, FEEdom hate mentality, now they believe in 'The Wyoming Dream', The....dream 4 States only now. Are Ye Living in the Wrong State? Have you Anallized that? If You hace not comitted your first felony yet WHY are decieving yourself , wake up you are NOT living in an "Unalienable Rights" Zone BUT a Constitutionan Free Zone Texas is a Despot State, New Jersey, New York and California these all are Despot States. If you are born in Texas you are born a secret First Class Felon, the Second Class Felon is the class of felon that actually comitted a crime. HOW CAN THIS BE ? " A citizen is allowed to exersize their Right to open an conceal carry a survival handy sidearm up until they have comitted their first felony, ALL Rights allowed, no Constitutional Free zone for a non- felon BUT not so for a Felon. The Question is ,when were you convicted of your first Felony? Google "Lewis v. U.S., 445 US 95 "Ruled that a person enjoys a fundamental right to openly and concealedly Sidearms up until his first conviction for a felony offense." Are you a felon? In A State LikeTexas. NY, N J you are secretly considered a Felon if you were born there, if you cross their State line to get in. Again Are You living in the Right State? You do not have Rights to FREEdom in Texas, N Y ect. Google "Hafer vs Melo" Why? You can Sue State Officials which 'Deprive ' a citizen of a Right , These outlaws are Liable . "Only A first Class (Secret) Felon is required to buy a license or to obtain permision to exercize a right, a "Privilege" is not a Right duh! A Right cannot be sold or bought, "A Right Requires No Permision" "Where There Is No Law There is No Violation" "No Law Has Ever Been Passed to make it a crime [Violation] to openly wear and to cover carry a survival handy sidearm" Never Forget the Legal Deffinition of VOID , Never Forget "John Cockrun v. The State Tex 24 at 402" Keep in mind '402' Forever Move to a FREE State, Texas, N Y, N J, Calif are Not FREE States it is only FEE-States ( FEEdom) not FREEdom. What is it about the Words 'FREE, VOID that you FEEmen don't Understand? Do ye not know You Have not Peace in your soul fooling yourselves that you are FREEmen all the while living in the land of FEEdom ( FEE-dom) "you are not living in the land of the FEE and The afraid"? Yes you are! Prove it, get up put on your gun belt like they do in Wyo. , Montanna, Arizona and walk out the door and go to the Barber shop, the Bank the very minute you walk out that door before you take that first step onto public land , sidewalk ect 'FEAR' will hit you Brave Land of the free and the Brave where not in Texas Selah! Last thought: "He told them to sell and buy sidearms later he directed Peter where to wear it, put it back into its place at your side this is not the correct time to use it, I have come to be arrested by these peace officers" N T. Did ye not know The Man Dirrected them to wear sidearms. Who told ye They have Passed A Law makeing it a crime to wear sidearms?
