IN DEFENSE OF RURAL AMERICA - 5 MONTHS FOR CLEANING OUT A DITCH! AND AN INTERESTING SEGUE TO A CONSTITUTIONAL PROBLEM IN MONTANA
Jailed For 5 Months For Cleaning Out a Ditch!

(May
5, 2013) — It is true that we can’t pick our relatives and most
times we can’t pick our neighbors, but many times either can bring us
grief beyond belief. And such was the case for John (not his real name as he requested anonymity) who
owned a few acres of land in a rural area of America, about a half
hour’s drive from a big city. Unfortunately, the government has passed
so many laws that neighbors never settle their differences face-to-face
or in the courts any more. One neighbor just calls the government and
files a complaint on his neighbor, which the government is honor-bound
to investigate, whether the complaint is valid or just neighbor
revenge.
Government
laws have turned many Americans into sniveling snitches. In one county
we know, the local land use authorities were holding seminars for
landowners, teaching them how to rat on their neighbors if they suspect
their neighbor was doing something without benefit of a permit. That is
what we have come to from passing millions of laws that nobody knows,
which leads to the government pitting neighbor against neighbor.
From
what we understand, John’s neighbor had a minor grievance with John
over some work along a common boundary, and instead of working it out
man-to-man, the neighbor called the county land use authorities (CLUA)
and filed a complaint. The CLUA comes out, looks at what John is doing
and says they didn’t see any problem; John didn’t need a permit and went
away. That wasn’t good enough for John’s neighbor and he kept bugging
CLUA until they came out to the property and told John that he needed to
cease and desist. But John had already ceased and desisted with
whatever he had been doing. That wasn’t good enough for CLUA, thanks to
continued bugging by John’s neighbor, and CLUA finally filed
misdemeanor charges against John for continuing to do alleged illegal
work that John had already stopped. Essentially John’s activities
consisted of cleaning out some areas around a ditch and burning the
slash, for which John had gotten a burning permit.
John
ignored their warnings for several months and thought the whole issue
had gone away. But behind the scenes John’s neighbor kept pressuring
CLUA and the county prosecutor to “get” John.
CLUA
and the county prosecutor dragged John into District Court on
misdemeanor charges for filling a wetland and John elected to represent
himself for what he thought was just a minor land use violation that he
could make go away. No such luck. The prosecutor and the District
Court judge decided to make an environmental example out of John by
thwarting every legal attempt John made to defend himself, to the point
that the judge found John in contempt of court and sentenced him to 150
days in jail on a full cash bond of $20,000 each, for five
separate contempt of court charges. Not having $100,000 to pay the
court, John was forced to sit in jail with thieves and murderers for
over 60 days before a third party filed a writ of Habeas Corpus in
Superior Court and had to fork over $20,000 in cash to get John out of
jail on appeal.
Oh,
did we tell you that the wetland charge was made by creating the
wetland AFTER John had done his clearing and burning? There was no
wetland designation in the area anytime before John did his work. In
other words, the prosecutor drummed up the charges by creating a wetland
violation after the fact. That’s how they “got” John.
While
out on appeal John used every legal trick he knew to get the case
dismissed but the court clerk would fail to file and record his
motions. Some motions were lost, others ignored. The District Court
judge literally thumbed his nose at all of John’s efforts. When John
filed a motion to get his case elevated to Superior Court because
according to the state Constitution, the lower court has no jurisdiction
in real estate cases, the District Court judge de-railed that, too.
John filed
motions in Superior Court to get the lower court decision rescinded.
The Superior Court would hear none of it either. We not only read the
transcripts of the lower court record but also attended the District
Court and Superior Court hearings. The transcript screamed of the
District Court judge’s environmental bias against John and he was going
to “get” John any way he could. We even filed written complaints with
the District Court and the Superior Court, signed by several
landowners. We wrote articles about John’s case that appeared in local
venues. The District Court judge wouldn’t let go.
Finding
no help in the two lower courts, John filed motions with the state
appellate court. No help there, either. John went to the State Supreme
Court. They refused to hear the case.
Finally,
just days before the District Court’s order to send John back to jail
for another 90 days and pay a fine of another $1,000, John filed for
clemency with the Governor of the state. The Governor ignored John’s
plea. John tried to get the District Court to give him credit for time
served and for good behavior while in jail for the first 63 days. The
District Court judge said emphatically, NO! and John went back to jail
to sit with thieves and murderers again, essentially for doing
maintenance on HIS property.
Some
of us tried to help John but our efforts fell on deaf ears. John was
forced back to jail for another 90 days for a charge of clearing out a
wetland that didn’t exist before the act of clearing. John became a
sacrificial lamb in the name of radical environmentalism. You have to
steal a car seven times before you go to jail, but woe be to the
landowner who dares to violate a sacred environmental ordinance, for he
shall be sacrificed on the alter of Gaia, the God of Earth.
Perhaps,
in hindsight, John should have hired a land use attorney and made the
charges against him go away. But he chose to defend himself as a
proud American. Perhaps that was an error in judgment on John’s part,
but he and we will never know. Whether defending yourself, or with a
lawyer, going into court is a gamble at best and any good lawyer will
admit it. Court rules are voluminous and can easily trip up the unwary
who dares to defend him- or herself in court. It is a closed,
elite club of judges, lawyers, clerks and the state bar association and
they rule the “Club.” They don’t like people defending themselves
because it messes up their neat little kingdom. Judges legislating from
the bench are as common as houseflies. Oversight of courts is
tantamount to the Fox guarding the Hen House. But all that is moot now
for John.
(We
have had our own sad experiences with the court system. One of those
experiences cost us $35,000 in attorney’s fees for what was blatantly a
frivolous lawsuit.)
John
has been out of jail now for several years but the experience has left
him emotionally, if not financially drained. We haven’t talked to him
in those intervening years and we don’t even know if he still resides on
his land.
If
you don’t think that what happened to John can happen to you, think
again. It is happening all over America. Every week we get one or more
e-mails or phone calls from landowners who are in trouble with
government. Most of them are desperate because they have let their
situation go too far where the government has the landowner by the
throat and the fines and penalties are mounting up. Some are facing
jail time.
So,
ladies and gentlemen, do you have a neighbor who has it in for you?
Will he work it out with you personally, or will he call the
government? Odds are he will call the government because he is a coward
and it is easier than facing you. When he does call the government,
you are going to find yourself in a world of hurt because the code
enforcement officer they send out WILL find something wrong on your
property and they WILL fine you or tell you that you have to restore
your property to its original condition, which will cost you a bundle.
They may even haul you off to jail as they did John.
We can help some landowners with some of the tools on our website. Unfortunately, there are many we can’t help because the government has the law on their side and they have the money(our money) and their own attorneys to thwart any efforts you may attempt to defend yourself. It’s a stacked deck at best.

Last year, Joel Boniek of Park County, MT, ex-State Representative and Oathkeeper, was arrested by the US Forest Service for daring to ignore Forest Service personnel's orders prohibiting him access to his own property in order to save/protect what he could during a forest fire. After two appearances at which he proceeded to defend himself (pro se), his references to the Constitution were labeled "seditious". He was supported by many neighbors, friends and patriots.
His trial commences on Friday. But here are interesting "coincidences".
Add to this, the information at this link: http://billingsgazette.com/news/state-and-regional/montana/atf-offers-reward-in-red-lodge-explosives-theft/article_ed989256-9bbf-5f2e-b5b4-5fc7bd513532.html
If this is a coincidental incident or treacherous false flag, it matters that people know about it beforehand, and that if it is just a coincidence, Joel Boniek's rights in a courtroom in Montana need to be upheld. No one should be railroaded like he's been.

- There has been 559 lbs of explosives stolen in Red Lodge, MT from the Forest Service. Some are of the emulsion type specific for mines because they have little backblast.
- They will be having a nuke exercise across the state starting on Monday running all week, that will ensure DHS, FEMA, FBI, DOD will be in the state
- Boniek's trial is on Friday, where he has been told he cannot stand on the Constitution and that will draw MT. patriots from all over the state into one location.

Mark Levin goes NUCLEAR: An up and down vote on the 2nd amendment is UNCONSTITUTIONAL! 4 9 2013
Mark
Levin says that on Thursday the Senate intends to vote to change the
2nd amendment without any pretense of going through the amendment
process, on a bill that hasn’t even been written yet. He says that this
isn’t republicanism, it’s democratic tyranny. And the senators arguing
to filibuster are being demonized, but Levin says that an up and down
vote on the 2nd amendment is unconstitutional, that there is no up and
down vote on the Constitution.

MT GOVERNOR LIES AB OUT THE CONSTITUTION, VETOES 2ND AMENDMENT PROTECTION BILL - (HEY STEVE, YOU WON'T BE RE-ELECTED 'CAUSE MY FRIENDS WILL NEVER LET YOU FORGET ABOUT THIS!)
Montana Governor Lies About the Constitution, Vetoes 2nd Amendment Protection Bill
Here's
a surprise for you; some Governors have absolutely zero understanding
of the Constitution. None, whatsoever. Montana Governor Steve Bullock
seems to fit that description quite nicely.
Yesterday, he vetoed Montana House Bill 302 (HB302).
The bill would require the state to refuse to enforce or assist the
enforcement of any federal bans on semiautomatic weapons or large
capacity magazines. The bill states, in part:
A
peace officer, state employee, or employee of any political
subdivision is prohibited from enforcing, assisting in the enforcement
of, or otherwise cooperating in the enforcement of a federal ban on
semiautomatic weapons or large magazines and is also prohibited from
participating in any federal enforcement action implementing a federal
ban on semiautomatic weapons or large magazines.
Here's why Bullock is clueless about the Constitution. In his veto message
he wrote that the bill would put "law enforcement in the position of
violating laws they have sworn to uphold" and "subject our peace
officers to criminal sanctions for upholding the oath we ask that they
take."
Here's a message for you, Steve. You're a liar, and we know it.
There
is absolutely ZERO serious discussion from anyone beyond a 4th grade
education about the fact that the federal government cannot
"commandeer" the states to carry out its laws. None.
Even the Supreme Court has affirmed this multiple times.
In
the 1992 case, New York v. United States, the Supreme Court ruled that
Congress couldn't require states to enact specified waste disposal
regulations.
In
the 1997 case, Printz v. United States, the Supreme Court ruled that
the federal government could not command state law enforcement
authorities to conduct background checks on prospective handgun
purchasers.
In
the 2012 case, National Federation of Independent Business v. Sebelius,
the Supreme Court ruled that a significant expansion of Medicaid, was
not a valid exercise of Congress's spending power, as it would coerce
states to either accept the expansion or risk losing existing Medicaid
funding.
In
each of these cases, the Supreme Court made is quite clear that their
opinion is that the federal government cannot require the states to
act, or even coerce them to act through a threat to lose funding.
Their opinion is correct. If the feds pass a law, they can sure try
to enforce it if they want. But the states absolutely do NOT have to
help them in any way. This is really basic stuff that no one disagrees with, except people like Steve Bullock when their trying to mislead people.
So
to say that Montana law enforcement would be "violating laws" or
"subject...to criminal sanctions" for not carrying out federal law FOR
the feds is a bald faced lie. And Steve Bullock knows it.
The people of Montana should be disgusted.
On
the right, those who support the right to keep and bear arms know that
no matter what gun laws are ever passed in DC - this year or in the
future - Steve Bullock will require the state of Montana to enforce
them.
On
the left, those who support the medical marijuana program that voters
approved years ago, know that Bullock will continue to be an
embarrassment to progressives, requiring local law enforcement to
continue working with the DEA when they don't even have to.
Now
if Bullock would have skipped this part of the veto message and just
focused on the political statement that he also included, that would be
more...acceptable. Still wrong-headed and dangerous, but not as bad
as his lie that the state needs to carry out and enforce every federal
law. He wants your local law enforcement to take all the risk, and to
bear all the cost, while the feds sit back and do nothing or take the
credit where the local law enforcement carries all the water.
His veto message continues:
Further,
HB 302 is unnecessary. To date, there has been no action in Congress
to enact a ban on semiautomatic weapons. Moreover, recent news reports
have indicated that a majority of Congress does not support such
legislation.
That
may be the case for 2013, and it's certainly decent news for the short
term. But, anyone thinking that this is over with because it won't
pass in 2013 is mistaken. Anyone saying "there's nothing to worry
about" is a liar. If you don't believe me, maybe you'll believe Joe
Biden:
"Let
me say this as clearly as I can: this is just the beginning," he said
just this week. "We believe that weapons of war have no place on our
streets. That's the message that retired admirals and generals have
spoken to us about. The comment one of them used was if you want to
learn how to use a semiautomatic weapon, join the United States
military. But these are weapons of war."
The
attempts to ban semiautomatic weapons and high capacity magazines are
just beginning and making sure that the federal government knows that
they'll get no support enforcing such a ban from the State of Montana,
is a good first step in rendering any such ban ineffective.
As
Judge Andrew Napolitano has said recently, such widespread
noncompliance can make a federal law "nearly impossible to enforce."
Steve
Bullock is a joke, and while we realize that no one is going to vote
this bum out of office anytime soon, the People of Montana can
certainly pressure their state senators and representatives to override
his veto and render worthless his constitutional-idiocy.
For Bullock to say such garbage about Montana being required to enforce federal law, we say "Bollocks!"

THE LIVING, BREATHING - DEAD CONSTITUTION
The Living, Breathing -- DEAD Constitution
A Commentary by J. D. Longstreet
***************
The US Constitution is NOT flexible. It was never intended to be flexible. That's why there are provisions for amending the constitution when sufficient numbers of citizens agree an amendment is needed.
At RenewAmerica.com, Edward Daly writes: "Many judges these days like to refer to the Constitution of the United States as a "living, breathing document," implying that its text is designed to be flexible. It is not. The Constitution is a set of rules, and like any other set of rules, it is meant to be strict and uncompromising. Of course, the Constitution can be modified through the amendment process, but once ratified, any amendment becomes like the rest of the Constitution; rigid.
And while any amendment may be repealed, as was the case with the 18th Amendment (The Prohibition Act), until that happens, it is just as concrete as any other part of the Constitution, and not subject to interpretation beyond the literal meaning of its text. The Constitution does not live, breath, or do the cha-cha, for that matter. It is in many ways an instructional manual for the way our country was designed to run, and amending it is very serious business." SOURCE: http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/daley/050324
Either the constitution means what it says, or it is of no account -- totally useless -- and the US is adrift in a sea of utter confusion, ripe for take over by tyrannical forces already tethered deep inside our government.
It is a common expression of the Progressives (read: Marxists) that the constitution is a living, breathing, document. I know it is not. YOU know it is not, and THEY know it is not. BUT -- our children don't. And they won't -- unless parents teach them the truth.
More and more our public schools (read: indoctrination centers) are dropping Civics/government/social studies from the curriculum of their schools. Our young scholars are graduating and entering adult life without a clue as to how the US government works. They are ignorant of our founding documents. They don't know squat about the constitution. That makes them vulnerable to the protestations from the leftist Marxists that the constitution is a living, breathing, document and open to interpretation -- or even change -- on a whim of the government.
But, Hey! This is how the progressives/Marxists have been making inroads into the political thinking of American society over the past decades. "Get 'em when their young and you'll have 'em forever."
The constitution is writ in stone! If you want to change it, you must carve another stone, as an amendment, and stand it alongside the original. The original constitution is simply not open to interpretation.
Look at it. Read it. A grammar school kid can understand it. The founders took great pains to make the constitution eminently readable and understandable.
In a letter to Henry Lee in 1824, James Madison, considered the “father” of the Constitution, wrote:
“I entirely concur in the propriety of resorting to the sense in which the Constitution was accepted and ratified by the nation. In that sense alone it is the legitimate Constitution. And if that be not the guide in expounding it, there can be no security for a consistent and stable, more than for a faithful exercise of its powers.” SOURCE: http://www.truenorthquest.com/constitution-living-breathing-document/
Please note the line in Madison's letter in which he says: "In that sense alone it is the legitimate Constitution." In other words, change the original "sense"(The meaning) of it -- and it is NO LONGER THE US CONSTITUTION!
Now. Look at what is happening today, right this moment, in our national government. Bills have been introduced in the Congress that would simply ignore the constitution.
All those gun control bills and gun banning bills simply ignore the original sense, the original wording, of the Second Amendment to the US Constitution. The Second Amendment clearly states that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be "infringed."
Infringed means to commit a breach or infraction of; to violate or transgress.
Simply put, the very words of the Second Amendment say -- and mean -- that the right to keep and bear arms is absolute, sacrosanct, cannot be changed, cannot be denied -- in other words, there is not a damned thing the government can do to take the guns of American citizens.
Yet, they are trying their dead-level best to do just that. And they are counting on the support of those adults who passed through our government schools in which they were indoctrinated that the constitution is a living, breathing, document. Those American have, most likely, never heard of Madison's letter to Henry Lee way back in 1824. (Some, no doubt, have never even heard of James Madison.) I would warrant most have never, ever, read the constitution, either.
Allow me to inquire -- why are we allowing this farce to continue? If they get away with it, it means they can simply ignore more of the constitution at will. It means they can change the "sense" of the constitution from the sense/meaning in which it was ORIGINALLY accepted and ratified. If they get their way, the constitution will not be worth the paper it is written on.
The support by the Mainstream Media of the Marxist efforts to reinterpret the Second Amendment would be funny were it not so serious. ("Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools ..." -- Romans 1:22 -- New Testament ) They do not seem to grasp that if the sense/meaning of the Second Amendment can be changed -- and allowed by the courts to stand -- then the sense/meaning of the First Amendment can, likewise, be changed.
Look. The very on-going efforts to re-interpret, or change the sense/meaning of the Second Amendment, is an act of tyranny. The constitution, itself, forbids exactly what they are trying to do.
The 2014 elections are a couple of years away (at this writing) and it will be our first chance at removing the proponents of a living, breathing, constitution from office. In the meantime, we ought to be demanding the resignation of every Senator and every Congressperson supporting the effort to "infringe" upon the Second Amendment and we ought to demand the President resign, as well.
This is quickly becoming more than just a fight to keep our guns. This is a fight to maintain our rights under the US Constitution, our freedom and our liberty.
This is a fight for freedom.

Of course, the Constitution can be modified through the amendment process, but once ratified, any amendment becomes like the rest of the Constitution; rigid.
And while any amendment may be repealed, as was the case with the 18th Amendment (The Prohibition Act), until that happens, it is just as concrete as any other part of the Constitution, and not subject to interpretation beyond the literal meaning of its text. The Constitution does not live, breath, or do the cha-cha, for that matter. It is in many ways an instructional manual for the way our country was designed to run, and amending it is very serious business." SOURCE: http://www.renewamerica.com/columns/daley/050324
Either the constitution means what it says, or it is of no account -- totally useless -- and the US is adrift in a sea of utter confusion, ripe for take over by tyrannical forces already tethered deep inside our government.
It is a common expression of the Progressives (read: Marxists) that the constitution is a living, breathing, document. I know it is not. YOU know it is not, and THEY know it is not. BUT -- our children don't. And they won't -- unless parents teach them the truth.
More and more our public schools (read: indoctrination centers) are dropping Civics/government/social studies from the curriculum of their schools. Our young scholars are graduating and entering adult life without a clue as to how the US government works. They are ignorant of our founding documents. They don't know squat about the constitution. That makes them vulnerable to the protestations from the leftist Marxists that the constitution is a living, breathing, document and open to interpretation -- or even change -- on a whim of the government.
But, Hey! This is how the progressives/Marxists have been making inroads into the political thinking of American society over the past decades. "Get 'em when their young and you'll have 'em forever."
The constitution is writ in stone! If you want to change it, you must carve another stone, as an amendment, and stand it alongside the original. The original constitution is simply not open to interpretation.
Look at it. Read it. A grammar school kid can understand it. The founders took great pains to make the constitution eminently readable and understandable.
In a letter to Henry Lee in 1824, James Madison, considered the “father” of the Constitution, wrote:
“I entirely concur in the propriety of resorting to the sense in which the Constitution was accepted and ratified by the nation. In that sense alone it is the legitimate Constitution. And if that be not the guide in expounding it, there can be no security for a consistent and stable, more than for a faithful exercise of its powers.” SOURCE: http://www.truenorthquest.com/constitution-living-breathing-document/
Please note the line in Madison's letter in which he says: "In that sense alone it is the legitimate Constitution." In other words, change the original "sense"(The meaning) of it -- and it is NO LONGER THE US CONSTITUTION!
Now. Look at what is happening today, right this moment, in our national government. Bills have been introduced in the Congress that would simply ignore the constitution.
All those gun control bills and gun banning bills simply ignore the original sense, the original wording, of the Second Amendment to the US Constitution. The Second Amendment clearly states that the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be "infringed."
Infringed means to commit a breach or infraction of; to violate or transgress.
Simply put, the very words of the Second Amendment say -- and mean -- that the right to keep and bear arms is absolute, sacrosanct, cannot be changed, cannot be denied -- in other words, there is not a damned thing the government can do to take the guns of American citizens.
Yet, they are trying their dead-level best to do just that. And they are counting on the support of those adults who passed through our government schools in which they were indoctrinated that the constitution is a living, breathing, document. Those American have, most likely, never heard of Madison's letter to Henry Lee way back in 1824. (Some, no doubt, have never even heard of James Madison.) I would warrant most have never, ever, read the constitution, either.
Allow me to inquire -- why are we allowing this farce to continue? If they get away with it, it means they can simply ignore more of the constitution at will. It means they can change the "sense" of the constitution from the sense/meaning in which it was ORIGINALLY accepted and ratified. If they get their way, the constitution will not be worth the paper it is written on.
The support by the Mainstream Media of the Marxist efforts to reinterpret the Second Amendment would be funny were it not so serious. ("Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools ..." -- Romans 1:22 -- New Testament ) They do not seem to grasp that if the sense/meaning of the Second Amendment can be changed -- and allowed by the courts to stand -- then the sense/meaning of the First Amendment can, likewise, be changed.
Look. The very on-going efforts to re-interpret, or change the sense/meaning of the Second Amendment, is an act of tyranny. The constitution, itself, forbids exactly what they are trying to do.
The 2014 elections are a couple of years away (at this writing) and it will be our first chance at removing the proponents of a living, breathing, constitution from office. In the meantime, we ought to be demanding the resignation of every Senator and every Congressperson supporting the effort to "infringe" upon the Second Amendment and we ought to demand the President resign, as well.
This is quickly becoming more than just a fight to keep our guns. This is a fight to maintain our rights under the US Constitution, our freedom and our liberty.
This is a fight for freedom.

THE CONSTITUTION REPEALED IN TEN STATES (
The Constitution repealed in ten states
Your Constitutional Rights have been repealed in ten states.
No, this isn’t a joke. It is not exaggeration or hyperbole. If you
are in ten states in the United States, some of your rights
guaranteed by the Bill of Rights have been made null and void.
And it is not just those ten states. Those are just the states where
everyone who lives in those states has lost some of their
Constitutional Rights. The sad truth is that there are only fourteen
states where this stripping of the rights of American citizens has not
yet happened.
What is going on?
The government has declared a one
hundred mile zone around the United States borders to be a part of the
border zone exception from the Fourth Amendment’s freedom from
unreasonable searches and seizures.
The Fourth Amendment states: The right of the people to be secure
in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable
searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall
issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and
particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or
things to be seized.
Historically there has always been an exemption from the 4th
Amendment requirement; i.e., at the nation’s border. This is the so-called
border search exception to the Fourth Amendment. Now the Department of
Homeland Security is claiming the right to search electronic devices
such as cell phones, laptops and tablet computers without a warrant or
even any probable cause within that 100-mile zone.
If you live in Hawaii, or Maine, or New Hampshire, or Massachusetts,
or Delaware or Rhode Island or Connecticut or Florida or Michigan, or
New Jersey, congratulations, you live in a 4th Amendment-free zone ! It does not matter where you go in your
state, the Department of Homeland Security can come in and demand to
search your electronic devices. They do not need any probable cause.
They can search you for the hell of it.
Those states listed are only the ones are totally covered by these
“border security” search zones. Other states like New York,
Pennsylvania and Virginia have massive parts of their state that are
covered by this too.
This is a Constitution free zone.
Who is responsible for this outrage?
The Obama Regime is responsible of course, because Obama is currently
in power. Unfortunately this outrage started when George W. Bush was
still in the White House.
The language of the 4th Amendment is clear. It is the
right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers and
effects from unreasonable searches and seizures.
The government still has the right to search a laptop or a cell phone
if the agents have probable cause and get a warrant or if they have
probable cause and there are exigent circumstances. Electronic devices are the 21st century equivalent of papers and are certainly our effects.
If the Department of Homeland Security can search someone’s cell
phone or laptop without a warrant or even probable cause because you are
within 100 miles of the border, what is next? Will the government
start saying that if you live within 100 miles of the border, the
Department of Homeland Security because of the border search exception
to the Fourth Amendment now has the right to search cars and homes
without either a warrant or even probable cause?
This is insanity and it must stop.
Where is the Tea Party Caucus in the House of Representatives? Why
aren’t they screaming about this desecration of the Constitution?
Republicans should be the first to the floor of the House and Senate
denouncing this and introducing legislation to rein in the Department of
Homeland Security.
Will this happen anytime soon?
Don’t hold your breath.

The Guns of Obamerica
Posted by Daniel Greenfield @ the Sultan Knish blog
Forget
Wal-Mart and skip your local gun show. The murderers of tomorrow will
not be found wearing orange vests at your local sporting goods store.
They won't have NRA memberships or trophies on their walls.
You won't find them in America. Look for them in Obamerica.
67%
of firearm murders took place in the country's 50 largest metro areas.
The 62 cities in those metro areas have a firearm murder rate of 9.7,
more than twice the national average. Among teenagers the firearm murder
rate is 14.6 or almost three times the national average. Those numbers
are from six years ago. They have grown worse since.
Those
are the crowded cities of Obamerica. The places with the most
restrictive gun control laws and the highest crime rates. These are the
places where the family is broken, money comes from the government and
immigrants crowd in from some of the most violent parts of the world
bringing with them their own organized crime. These are also the places
that have been run by Democrats and their political machines for almost
as long as they have been broken.
Obama
won every major city in the election, except for Jacksonville and Salt
Lake City. And the higher the death rate, the bigger his victory. He won
New Orleans by 80 to 17 where the murder rate is ten times higher than
the national average. He won Detroit, where the murder rate of 53 per
100,000 people is the second highest in the country and twice as high as
any country in the world, including the Congo and South Africa. He won
it 73 to 26. And then he celebrated his victory in Chicago where the
murder rate is three times the statewide average.
These places aren't America. They're Obamerica.
In
2006, the 54% of the population living in those 50 metro areas was
responsible for 67% of armed killings nationwide. Those are
disproportionate numbers especially when you consider that for the
people living in most of those cities walking into a store and legally
buying a gun is all but impossible.
Mayors
of Obamerican cities blame guns because it's easier than blaming people
and now the President of Obamerica has turned to the same shameless
tactic. The NRA counters that people kill people, but that's exactly why
Obamerican leaders would rather talk about the guns.
Chicago,
the capital of Obamerica, is a city run by gangs and politicians. It
has 68,000 gang members, four times the number of police officers.
Chicago politicians solicit the support of gang members in their
campaigns, accepting laundered contributions from them, hiring their
members and tipping them off about upcoming police raids. And their
biggest favor to the gang bosses is doing nothing about the epidemic of
gang violence.
80%
of Chicago's murders are gang-related. But in 1999 when a bill came up
in the Illinois State Senate to try anyone carrying out a firearm attack
on school property as an adult, a law that would have affected gang
members who often bring weapons to school, the future leader of
Obamerica voted present. Had he not voted present, it is doubtful that
he would have been reelected in an area where gang leaders wield a great
deal of influence.
The
majority of murders in the cities with the worst homicide rates are
gang-related. And while it isn't always possible to be certain whether a
killing was gang-related, the majority of homicide victims in city
after city have been found to have criminal records.
In
2010, there were 11,078 firearm homicides in the United States and over
2,000 known gang-related killings, over 90% of which are carried out
with firearms. Since 1981, Los Angeles alone has had 16,000 gang related
homicides. That's more than twice the number of Americans killed in
Iraq and Afghanistan and it's more than the number of Americans who died
in the Mexican-American War.
This
is what Obamerica looks like. It's a place where life is cheap and
illegal guns are as available as illegal drugs. It's a series of war
zones whose problem is not the supply of guns, but their own social
dysfunction. It's the war that we aren't talking about, because it's
easier to talk about the inanimate objects being used to fight that war.
Reformers
in the twenties blamed the plight of the slums on the availability of
liquor. They rammed through Prohibition for the entire country to fix
the cities. The liquor went on flowing and the slums went on being
slums. Gun control has been just as successful in healing the slums as
whiskey control was. And like the dry reformers, gun control advocates
insist on trying to apply their solution on a national level, when the
problem is not nationwide.
There
are, as John Edwards said, two Americas. America is a country that runs
pretty well on its own. Gun sales in America do not lead to bursts of
homicide. If the power goes out for an hour, there is no epidemic of
looting. The new year isn't rung in at the morgue. Social dysfunction
exists but it never affects the majority or even a sizable minority of
the population.
And
then there's Obamerica. Not all of Obamerica is broken, but a lot of it
is. Obamerica has a big gap between the rich and the poor. Its middle
class is always on the run. Its upper class retreats to fortresses. Its
lower class is broken and constantly growing as its political machines
feed off human misery and exploit social dysfunction to gain votes.
America
does not have a gun violence problem. Obamerica does. And Obamerica has
a gun violence problem for the same reason that it has a drug problem
and a broken family problem. These social ills cannot be solved by
banning something. The War on Guns is not going to fix the inner city
just as the War on Drugs didn't. Rigid law enforcement can keep the
numbers down, but does not deal with the causes of the violence.
Obamerica
is a bad place. It has great restaurants and night clubs. It has a lot
of noise and a lot of light. The next big thing in music will probably
come out of there. It's where your kids probably dream of moving to when
they're teenagers. But for all that it's fundamentally broken.
Democratic
leaders and machines, combined with liberal social workers and justice
crusaders have run Obamerica into the ground. Obamerican cities used to
be the homes of industry and progress. Now they're places where young
Black and Hispanic men kill each other in growing numbers.
In
America, guns are used for target practice and for hunting, and on rare
occasions for self-defense, but in Obamerica guns have only one
purpose, as so many liberals have pointed out, like so many of the young
men who walk the streets of Obamerica, they exist only to kill. The
guns get blamed and the killers rotate through the revolving doors of an
overburdened justice system. And then the politicians who sit around
the table with gang leaders announce that they have a new initiative to
get guns off the streets.
America
does not need gun control. It is a mostly law-abiding place. And gun
control cannot help Obamerica. Not when its murder rate is driven by
gangs who have no trouble obtaining anything; whether it's legal in the
United States or not.
What
can help is talking about Obamerica. AIDS prevention was sabotaged by
the claim that the disease was a general problem spreading through the
population. It wasn't. Neither is gun violence. Despite the occasional
exception created by high profile suburban shooting sprees, this is not
an American problem. It’s an Obamerican problem.
Adam
Lanza is as much of a plausible poster boy for gun violence, as Ryan
White was for AIDS. A better poster boy for gun violence might be Jay-Z,
who boasts of having been a drug dealer and claims to have shot his
brother at the age of 12. The drug dealer to millionaire rapper is the
Horatio Alger story of Obamerica. And Jay-Z can be seen partying with
Obama, the political king of Obamerica touching base with its cultural
king.
If
Obama really wants to get serious about gun violence, then all he has
to do is turn to the man standing next to him. But Obama, like every
Chicago politician before him, don't want to end the violence. The death
toll is profitable, not just for rappers writing bad poetry about
dealing drugs and shooting rivals, but for the politicians atop that
heap who score money and gain power by using the problems of Obamerica
as some sort of call to conscience for the rest of the country.
That's
what Obama is doing now. Hiding behind Newtown and adorable little kids
is the grim specter of Obamerica's death toll. It's buried inside the
gruesome figures of how many Americans are shot each year issued as an
indictment against the entire country in general and gun owners in
particular. But those numbers are not an indictment of America. They are
an indictment of Democratic mayors and Liberal social policy. They are
an indictment of Obamerica. They are an indictment of Obama.
This
country does not need to have a conversation about how many bullets
should go in a clip. It does need to have a conversation about how many
parents should go in a family. It needs to talk about the ghettos of
Obamerica and have a serious conversation about broken families and
generational dependency. It needs to have a conversation about funneling
new immigrants from broken parts of the world into areas already
suffering from high levels of unemployment and street violence.
Most
of all this country needs to have a conversation about the direction
it's headed in. We need to set aside the same old tired social justice
rhetoric that has done nothing except train .001 percent of the young
men and women of Obamerica to be community organizers and race card
wielders and have a serious conversation about what is wrong with New
Orleans, Detroit and Chicago.
Obama
has become a role model to millions of people in the Black community.
You can see posters and photos of him in every barbershop. If anyone can
address these problems, it's him. But instead of trying to solve the
problems of Obamerica, instead of doing something about the high levels
of unemployment, the broken families and the glamorization of drug
dealing and violent crime, he wimped out and picked a fight with the
rural Americans that he derided as gun-clingers.
In
the same hollow tradition of macho posturing common among the men
responsible for much of the violence in Obamerica, he chose to show his
power in a fight for dominance with a perceived rival, rather than give
back to his community. Rather than looking to the hearts and minds of
his followers, he went after the guns of those he sees as his enemies.
That is what distinguishes a thug from a leader. Leaders uplift their
people. Thugs use them up as cannon fodder in their own private power
struggles.
The
legacy of Martin Luther King reminds us that a leader speaks difficult
truths even to his own people. There are such leaders in the Black
community today. Obama is not one of them.
The
guns of America, by and large, are not a threat to the innocent. The
guns of Obamerica are. And the conversation that we need to have is
about what can be done, not about the guns of Obamerica, but about its
hearts and minds.

OBAMA DEATH SQUADS FAN OUT ACROSS AMERICA AS REBELLION LOOMS
Obama Death Squads Fan Out Across America As Rebellion Looms
A grim Federal Security Forces “urgent action” memorandum prepared
for President Putin is warning that United States President Barack Obama
has ordered at least 800 highly trained “death squad” units to disperse
throughout his country in preparation for what Russian intelligence
analysts are predicting to be a series of high-profile killings of
dissident Americans set to begin as soon as February 22nd.
According to this memo, Obama was emboldened to implement this
murderous plan against his own citizens after this past weeks US Federal
Court ruling granted his regime the right to kill, without trial or
charges, any American he so chooses, and keep the reason(s) for doing so
secret.
Important to note about this shredding of the US Constitutional
protections the American people once lived under was the disgusted
wording used by United States District Court Judge Colleen McMahon who
in handing down this frightening ruling, in part, said:
“The Alice-in-Wonderland nature of this pronouncement is not
lost on me; but after careful consideration, I find myself stuck in a
paradoxical situation in which I cannot solve a problem because of
contradictory constraints and rules — a veritable Catch-22. I can find
no way around the thicket of laws and precedents that effectively allow
the Executive Branch of our Government to proclaim as perfectly lawful
certain actions that seem on their face incompatible with our
Constitution and laws, while keeping the reason for their conclusion a
secret.”
Equally important to note about the Obama regimes murderous plan,
this memo continues, was a likewise chilling ruling issued last month by
United States Appeals Court Judge Raymond Lohier that allows the
American President to detain indefinitely any citizen he so chooses
without trial or charges, a move so grave and draconian it led to the
Academy Award-winning director Oliver Stone saying about Obama:
“I think under the disguise of sheep’s clothing he has been a
wolf. That because of the nightmare of the Bush presidency that preceded
him, people forgave him a lot. He was a great hope for change. The
color of his skin, the upbringing, the internationalism, the globalism,
seemed all evident. And he is an intelligent man. He has taken all the
Bush changes he basically put them into the establishment, he has
codified them. That is what is sad. So we are going into the second
administration that is living outside the law and does not respect the
law and foundations of our system and he is a constitutional lawyer, you
know. Without the law, it is the law of the jungle. Nuremburg existed
for a reason and there was a reason to have trials, there is a reason
for due process – ‘habeas corpus’ as they call it in the United States.”
The excuse to be used by the Obama regime in order to begin their
targeted killings of American dissidents, FSB analysts say, is that
these otherwise lawful citizens were not complying with the new gun
control laws Vice President Joseph Biden “guaranteed” Boston Mayor
Thomas Menino would be enacted by the end of January.
Critical to note is that Obama permanently solidified the enmity of
the American gun-rights supporters when, during the 2008 Presidential
primary, he was recorded at a political fundraiser saying of rural,
working-class Americans, “So it's not surprising, then, that they get
bitter and they cling to guns or religion, or antipathy toward people
who aren't like them, or anti-immigrant sentiment, or, you know,
anti-trade sentiment [as] a way to explain their frustrations.”
Most interesting to note in this memo is its saying that the
“master plan” Obama intends to use in disarming his citizens has already
been openly discussed and published by the highly influential
progressive American political blog Daily Kos, that is said does not
repeat Democratic “talking points,” it generates political talking
points that later are found in mainstream publications and from
Democratic politicians themselves, and is now opening advocating
indiscriminate armed raids to be used as an “example” to frighten other
citizens into obeying their Washington D.C. masters who will order them
all to disarm.
The “death squads” being deployed throughout the United States
under Obama’s orders, this memo continues, are frighteningly called
VIPER teams, which is the acronym for Visible Intermodal Prevention and
Response Team, a programme run by the Transportation Security
Administration (TSA) and whose agents terrify millions of Americans with
Nazi-like Gestapo tactics on a daily basis at airports and who report
to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).
So frightening have these TSA agents become that London’s Guardian
News Service, this past April, in their article titled “The TSA's
Mission Creep is Making the US a Police State,” warned that these Obama
regime henchmen are spreading out across the entire United States in
order to control every aspect of American citizens life… “never in
response to actual threats, but apparently more in an attempt to live up
to the inspirational motto displayed at the TSA's air marshal training
center since the agency's inception: “Dominate. Intimidate. Control.”
And to how these TSA VIPER Team “death squads” will “dominate,
intimidate and control” dissident Americans, this memo says, was made
even more chillingly clear this past week when the DHS ordered another
200,000 rounds of hollow point ammunition on top of the 1.6 billion
rounds of this internationally banned ammunition already secured by them
over the last 9 months alone. These nearly 2 billion rounds of
ammunition stand in sharp contrast to US military forces who use only 70
million rounds of ammunition per year in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Russian military analysts contributing to this memo further note
that the Obama regimes saying that these massive DHS ammunition
purchases are for “practice and training purposes” is “preposterous” as
all firearms training done by military and/or police forces “always” use
less expensive rounds. Retired US Army Major General Jerry Curry,
likewise, agreed with his Russian counterparts when he stated that the
Obama regimes “explanation about the bullets fails to pass the smell
test.”
Most ominous, perhaps, in this memo is its stating that the “exact”
plan for the Obama regimes disarming of its citizens appears to have
been predicted by the famous martyred American dissident William Cooper
(1943-2001), who in his 1991 book “Behold A Pale Horse” wrote:
“The government encouraged the manufacture and importation of
firearms for the criminals to use. This is intended to foster a feeling
of insecurity, which would lead the American people to voluntarily
disarm themselves by passing laws against firearms. Using drugs and
hypnosis on mental patients in a process called Orion, the CIA
inculcated the desire in these people to open fire on schoolyards and
thus inflame the anti-gun lobby. This plan is well under way, and so far
is working perfectly. The middle class is begging the government to do
away with the 2nd Amendment.”
Cooper, who former President Bill Clinton once called “the most
dangerous man in America,” was gunned down by US authorities shortly
after the 11 September 2001 attacks which, in a radio broadcast on 28
June 2001, he predicted an attack on America and stated that Osama Bin
Laden would be named as the primary scapegoat.
With the tragic events of the Sandy Hook Elementary School Massacre
still fresh in the American peoples mind, combined with Obama’s new
unlimited power to kill and detain any American citizen he so desires,
this memo concludes, the conditions for “wholesale rebellion” in the
United States is just “one spark” away from becoming a reality, and
which these heavily armed TSA VIPER Team “death squads” are sure to
provide.
The following is from last April...and provides further insight.
The TSA's mission creep is making the US a police state
The out-of-control Transportation Security Administration is past patdowns at airports – now it's checkpoints and roadblocks
A TSA 'viper' (VIPR) team patrolling mass transit
Ever since 2010, when the Transportation Security Administration started requiring that travelers in American airports submit to sexually intrusive gropings based on the apparent anti-terrorism principle that "If we can't feel your nipples, they must be a bomb", the agency's craven apologists have shouted down all constitutional or human rights objections with the mantra "If you don't like it, don't fly!"
This callous disregard for travelers' rights merely paraphrases the
words of Homeland Security director Janet Napolitano, who shares, with
the president, ultimate responsibility for all TSA travesties since
2009. In November 2010, with the groping policy only a few weeks old, Napolitano dismissed complaints by saying "people [who] want to travel by some other means" have that right. (In other words: if you don't like it, don't fly.)
But now TSA is invading travel by other means, too.
No surprise, really: as soon as she established groping in airports,
Napolitano expressed her desire to expand TSA jurisdiction over all
forms of mass transit. In the past year, TSA's snakelike VIPR (Visual
Intermodal Prevention and Response) teams have been slithering into more
and more bus and train stations – and even running checkpoints on
highways – never in response to actual threats, but apparently more in
an attempt to live up to the inspirational motto displayed at the TSA's air marshal training center since the agency's inception: "Dominate. Intimidate. Control."
Anyone who rode the bus in Houston, Texas during the 2-10pm shift last Friday faced random bag checks and sweeps
by both drug-sniffing dogs and bomb-sniffing dogs (the latter being
only canines necessary if "preventing terrorism" were the actual intent
of these raids), all courtesy of a joint effort between TSA VIPR nests
and three different local and county-level police departments. The new
Napolitano doctrine, then: "Show us your papers, show us everything
you've got, justify yourself or you're not allowed to go about your
everyday business."
Congresswoman Sheila Jackson-Lee praised these violations
of her constituents' rights with an explanation asinine even by
congressional standards:
"We're looking to make sure that the lady I saw walking with a cane … knows that Metro cares as much about her as we do about building the light rail."
See, if you don't support the random harassment of ordinary people
riding the bus to work, you're a callous bastard who doesn't care about
little old ladies.
No specific threats or reasons were cited for the raids, as the
government no longer even pretends to need any. Vipers bite you just
because they can. TSA spokesman Jim Fotenos confirmed this a few days
before the Houston raids, when VIPR teams and local police did the same
thing to travelers catching trains out of the Amtrak station in Alton, Illinois.
Fotenos confirmed that "It was not in response to a specific threat,"
and bragged that VIPR teams conduct "thousands" of these operations each
year.
Still, apologists can pretend that's all good, pretend
constitutional and human rights somehow don't apply to mass transit, and
twist their minds into the Mobius pretzel shapes necessary to find
random searches of everyday travelers compatible with any notion that
America is a free country. "Don't like the new rules for mass transit?
Then drive."
Except even that doesn't work anymore. Earlier this month, the VIPRs came out again in Virginia and infested the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel,
also known as the stretch of Interstate 64 connecting the cities of
Hampton and Norfolk. Spokesmen admitted again that the exercise was a
"routine sweep", not a response to any specific threat. Official news
outlets admitted the checkpoint caused a delay (further exacerbated by a
couple of accidents), but didn't say for how long. Local commenters at the Travel Underground forums reported delays of 90 minutes.
I grew up in the Hampton Roads region of Virginia. When I was a
kid, my dad crossed the bridge-tunnel every day while commuting to work.
When I was in university, I did the same thing. The old conventional
wisdom said "Get to the airport at least two hours early, so TSA has
time to violate your constitutional rights before boarding." What's the
new conventional wisdom – "Leave for any destination at least 90 minutes
early, so TSA can violate your rights en route"?
Airports, bus terminals, train stations, highways – what's left? If
you don't like it, walk. And remember to be respectfully submissive to
any TSA agents or police you encounter in your travels, especially now
that the US supreme court has ruled mass strip-searches
are acceptable for anyone arrested for even the most minor offence in
America. If you're rude to any TSA agent or cops, you risk being
arrested on some vague catch-all charge like "disorderly conduct". Even
if the charges are later dropped, you'll still undergo the ritual
humiliation of having to strip, squat, spread 'em and show your various
orifices to be empty.
