To the Members of our America of God and Nation First - Representatives in the House and Senate - Americans First; IT IS TIME TO 'JUST STOP' violating the Laws of our Republic and ENFORCE - the Laws of the Declaration and Constitution to Protect the God's Law Rights of ALL persons on God's Planet:
After God, the First Principle of our Article IV:4 Republican Form of government is One-Person-self government/conscience, dignity, and value – one Person, composed of both body and soul, is exactly the same level as any other being, regardless of position, trappings of office, or color of law any person projects; for mankind to himself and to the others in life’s bodily/temporal journey is unique to that person; and therefore he is not to be judged absent Rule of Law contained in God’s Laws of the Declaration; held by Oath of Office in the Constitution.
The Declaration of Independence is Supreme to the Constitution’s Laws precisely because 1137 lessons, instructions, and actions to take, should any person’s Soul be in jeopardy because of “destructive of these ends”, abuses, usurpations, absolute Despotism...; and “we have reminded them of the circumstances of our immigration and settlement here. ..”; And
“The separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them..We hold these truths to be self-evident, all men are created equal, that they are endowed by the Creator with Unalienable Rights..”; And in the Constitution:
“- The individual component of the polity is the person, which is defined as any being consisting of or having the essential cognitive attributes of a member of the species homo sapiens, including both the capacity to compete with others for the means to exercise the natural rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, and the capacity to regulate its competitive actions to avoid depriving others of those rights and to sacrifice itself for the greater good of the polity as a whole or for their common posterity.”; and
Therefore, “The concept of Man's spiritual nature, and the resulting concept of the supreme dignity and value of each Individual, provide the fundamental basis for each Individual's self-respect and the consequent mutual respect among Individual's. This self-respect as well as this mutual respect are the outgrowth of, and evidenced by, The Individual's maintenance of his God-given, unalienable rights. They are maintained by requiring that government and other Individuals respect them, as well as by his dedication to his own unceasing growth toward realization of his highest potential--spiritually, morally, intellectually, in every aspect of life. This is in order that he may merit maximum respect by self and by others..” at http://www.lexrex.com/jml/index.php/the-american-ideal/8-american-ideal-part1/4-the-spiritual-is-supreme ; Because
In our Republic under God, next Thursday, 363 years old from Puritans of 1620, The Laws of Both Founding Documents state: “..a belief in the being and perfections of God, in the revelation of his will to man, in man's obligation to obey his commands, in a state of reward and punishment, and in man's accountableness to God; and also true godliness or piety of life, with the practice of all moral duties. It therefore comprehends theology, as a system of doctrines or principles, as well as practical piety; for the practice of moral duties without a belief in a divine lawgiver.. Religion, as distinct from virtue, or morality, consists in the performance of the duties we [each-one=-person in the whole of polity] owe directly to God, from a principle of obedience to his will. Hence we often speak of religion and virtue, as different branches of one system, or the duties of the first and second tables of the law. “
Person dies when his body dies. In our nation’s religion, Person’s Soul does not die. Soul is immortal...unless..
A person’s Soul, travels in earthly body, but is “separate and equal station” to any other being; for God created homo sapiens in His Image, and He does not have anatomy, physiology, neurology, the living objects of animals and plants.
God is described many ways by many denomination’s ecclesiastics, including those of the Atheist, Secular, Deist, Sharia Law belief in man over God expressed as Article 19 of UN Charter / Universal Declaration of Human Rights / World Summit Information Society No. 4 “Declaration of Principles: “Everyone has the right to freedom of opinion and expression; this right includes freedom to hold opinions without interference and to seek, receive and impart information and ideas through any media and regardless of frontiers.”; where “opinion” is Not based in “the probability of Truth: .http://1828.mshaffer.com/d/search/word,opinion ; And
Since the “Obama-Modern Marxist-Alinsky” desecration of our Republic under God declares “ working in and for an open society is in an ideological dilemma to begin with, he does not have a fixed truth -- truth to him is relative and changing; everything to him is relative and changing...”; and
Since The "2009UNC/UDHR/WSIS/Open Society/Obama-modern Marxist-Alinsky-government-over-man-Regime" repudiates the Truth of The Law of Moses and Jesus Christ; the Laws of Both Founding Documents are Law; 'Elected-We the People', each-Person, are Bound to Articles II and VI Oath, Person of Honor and Integrity, - affirmed or not; and Oath means: "A promise that one made to man calling on God to be the witness of the promise, and thus admitting that the one taking the oath would someday be held accountable for that promise by God and , possibly, in the court of law on earth. In the historic Judeo-christian setting..., the oath [remains] extremely important and powerful.” (“George Washington’s Sacred Fire; P. Lillbeck, J. Newcombe), and
The "2009 Obama - modern Marxist-Alinsky Regime demonstrates in all Bills, Acts, Statutes, Executive Orders, laws by decree from 29,941, and growing, closed-shop, SEIUnion Article II, Executive Branch Agencies, Man over God is the “religion of the Obama-modern Marxism-Alinsky Regime”; for it is among “Any system of faith and worship. In this sense, religion comprehends the belief and worship of pagans and Mohammedans, as well as of christians; any religion consisting in the belief of a superior power or powers governing the world, and in the worship of such power or powers...We speak of false religion, as well as of true religion...” http://1828.mshaffer.com/d/search/word,Religion
This is what the 2009, until We the People of God and Nation First, have been allowing to occur because of the sacred, false god - number – “Majority” is allowed to be the “Standard of Right and Wrong”; so that One-Person and all minorities Laws of the Declaration are repudiated as extinct....
That is the reason, all Bills, Acts, Amendments, laws established by the 29,941 executive level Agencies, must be repealed – specifically..
...SB744 is a violation of the Laws of Both Founding Documents:
There are several ways statutes or other official acts may be Unconstitutional:
— S 744 is contrary to a right guaranteed under the Constitution: S 744, like PPAA and America's Financial Security Act, remove the Article IV:4 Republican form of government and remove protection from invasion of "An attack on the rights of another; infringement or violation." as well as the formation of a Federal Police Force solely subservient to the Article II Branch of Government; it is violating Article V the amending process for our Republic. S 744 repudiates sovereignty of Person, State, and Nation's borders and jurisdiction.
— S 744 neglect to perform duty’s imposed under the Constitution: Article IV: 2, 4, Amendment IX, XIV: "1. All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equalprotection of the laws." "Property" per James Madison at http://press-ubs.uchicago.edu/founders/documents/v1ch16s23.html
Contrary to a right: separate and equal station: Legal Naturalized Citizens and Natural Citizen’s self-respect/internal government-conscience, dignity and value of persons, are completely repudiated as those concepts do not exist in man over God-UN-Obama-Socialist-modern Marist-Alinsky. That internal government does not exist in the Obama regime is demonstrated throughout the Bills, Acts, Laws of Cabinet, and forbidden our Nation’s assets in coal, natural gas, petroleum, common core curriculum, belief in the false god C, O, H, N, i.e. “Chicken Little’s falling sky”, opinion without interference - God’s gases of Life, at http://www.desmogblog.com/2013/06/28/obama-s-energy-czar-continues-back-dubious-coal-technology-part-climate-strategy .
Neglect to perform some duty: The current per taxpaying Citizen debt is $148,360 (increase of $190 since May). There are 94,505 Federal Level Agencies every-one of which has employees who are members of the Dictatorship-Contract-Closed shop (life and Liberty removed)-taxpayer-supplied wages with benefits very few private companies offer, especially a guaranteed, stop-loss, on each-one’s-pensions (private workers purchase and take market risk-rewards when they are financially able – and you know what has happened to the reason our Middle Class had financial security - Property of Home Ownership in market place responding the market activities - absent government).
The Pensions are UNFUNDED and never a consideration in any budget, though that is the reason GAO and executive/legislative ignore each other so that integrity and honor- never cross the ‘boundaries’ of a particular portion of governance, i.e. The Principle of Nuremberg - which is Scripture/Ezekiel 33 and Matt. 5,6,7; Declaration, and Constitution.
THERE IS NO STEWARDSHIP of the Property of ownership - money from more than 2000 hours of work, each persons performs each year....This is also True at the State Level among the Several States, mostly Blue in color.
S 744 is not applied uniformly and has no intention of being applied uniformly, if only because the Southern Border States are involved, as opposed to nearly every State which borders Canada and the USA.
There are millions of Naturalized Citizens who have obeyed, and been subject the “You are not a Citizen yet” attitudes of Immigration and Naturalization. They could and would tell you great horror stories of what they had to endure in order to become Citizens under the Federal Code of Laws... ; and
Citizenship has duties and responsibility, not the least of which is each-one-about to be naturalized person’s own Soul / internal government - conscience, in Pledging Allegiance to the United States of America – and not to their country-of-origin, at least Not First place. Duty: all life’s roles carry accountability to one’s life choices, risk rewards, threats-opportunities, and there is always self-respect, though some new emigrants aren’t really aware of this until they live here awhile, dignity and value of those close, neighbors, friends, and people in everyday contacts. “In God We Trust: Most have to learn this, for there is not another Nation on God’s Planet, that has made Law for the protection of Person from government; and the reason God is Providence, Truth, Almighty, Eternal is what He and His son Jesus Christ are... Liberty: is the result of self-control and our ‘polity’ of self-governing voluntarily restrain themselves from infringing on each other’s liberty. Accountability means we will be judged by our intentions as well as our actions. Washington’s “Deeds not words.”.
Service: Naturalized Citizens who refuse to learn English, in spite of Congress and the State of California – ENGLISH IS THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICAN and THE GOVERNMENT, TO PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF EACH-ONE-PERSON, OF, BY, AND FOR THE PEOPLE. Any naturalized Citizen who refuses his unique Soul-Person in service to the Nation, He in His personal Honor has pledged his Allegiance to – is violating the Laws of the Republic under God; but more important to His self-same conscience ow what ever he values in his person of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness with rights to the Property of living and inanimate objects TOOLs to utilize that right of property.
SB 744 does not value self or mutual respect for ALL person. ‘VOTERS’ ARE ONE-PERSON, WHO IS RESPONSIBLE TO THE WHOLE OF OUR TOWNS, COUNTIES, STATE, AND FEDERAL EQUILATERAL TRIANGLE. If you fail, you are accountable.... Memory of words does not make a citizen; And
American Citizens, People, Legal Emigrants versus Illegal immigrants; and now add this from Federal level, violations of the ninth and Tenth Amendments, Rights Amendment in Title 24 of Health and Human Services: "Sec. 1973aa Application of prohibition to other States; "test or device" defined
(a) No citizen shall be denied, because of his failure to comply with any test or device, the right to vote in any Federal, State, or local election conducted in any State or political subdivision of a State.
(b) As used in this section, the term "test or device" means any requirement that a person as a prerequisite for voting or registration for voting (1) demonstrate the ability to read, write, understand, or interpret any matter, (2) demonstrate any educational achievement or his knowledge of any particular subject, (3) possess good moral character, or (4) prove his qualifications by the voucher of registered voters or members of any other class....
Sec. 1973aa-1 Residence requirements for voting
(a) Congressional findings: The Congress hereby finds that the imposition and application of the duration-residency requirement as a precondition to voting for the offices of President and Vice President [Elections are just one part of the process of selecting our Republican Representative government and take place at Town, County, State, Congressional levels, thus demonstrating Government-supreme to "We the People" and "Consent of the Governed"- violates 9th, 10th, and 14th Amendments] and the lack of sufficient opportunities for absentee registration and absentee balloting in presidential elections -
(1) denies or abridges the inherent constitutional right of citizens to vote for their President and Vice President;
(2) denies or abridges the inherent constitutional right of citizens to enjoy their free movement across State lines;
(3) denies or abridges the privileges and immunities guaranteed to the citizens of each State under article IV, section 2, clause 1, of the Constitution;
(4) in some instances has the impermissible purpose or effect of denying citizens the right to vote for such officers because of the way they may vote;
(5) has the effect of denying to citizens the equality of civil rights, and due process and equal protection of the laws that are guaranteed to them under the fourteenth amendment; and
(6) does not bear a reasonable relationship to any compelling State interest in the conduct of presidential elections.
(b) Congressional declaration: durational residency requirement, abolishment; absentee registration and balloting standards, establishment [In the interest of government by determining that government alone is the definer of the words of the Declaration and Preamble in One Person Protected in his property of unalienable natural rights and in separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them... for Voters are not required to be knowledgeable regarding the sovereignty of their person, State and Nation under God -- it is impossible for them to protect their rights when government is the definer of which of the rights are allowed..and which are not allowed, i.e can't read -- so must depend on another person or influence (union demand) for how and where to place their 'fill-in dots' or the levers of the invisible and unaccountable hardware and software writers of the Boolean logic computers -- equally completely inaccurate as well as accurate -- just depending on the Nature and Nature's God of a few, unknown/invisible/unaccountable to anyone men.
Upon the basis of these findings, Congress declares that in order to secure and protect the above-stated rights of citizens under the Constitution, to enable citizens to better obtain the enjoyment of such rights, and to enforce the guarantees of the fourteenth amendment, it is necessary (1) to completely abolish the durational residency requirement as a precondition to voting for President and Vice President, and (2) to establish nationwide, uniform standards relative to absentee registration and absentee balloting in presidential elections. .." in relation to
http://www.justice.gov/crt/about/vot/sec_5/about.php ..”.
In case, fellow American, you don’t recognize the violation, note “President and Vice President Only violates 9th, 10th Amendments for elections are not Federal, not State, but are the Right of the People in the Democracy part of our Republican form of government;.... and the abolishment of English – the language of duty and service to preserve, protect, and defend the Laws of both Founding Documents;... and the change of Person, absent physical and environmental characteristics;.. to one of skin color, country-of-origin other than the United States that individual has pledged his Allegiance to Republic under God; and don’t forget the dead, drive-by voters / same day as election voting, empty apartment buildings, internet voting (except for the Military serving overseas, though the State Department people are able to vote), i.e the 14th Amendment....and do not kid yourself for one minute...the last and most important item to note:
Senators, you are elected for 6 years because you should have Knowledge, Wisdom, for Truth which is the only location for “Let it simply be asked, where is the security for property

---- Each-one-of You are Accountable. You are not a collective-number-majority. You are your person of Integrity and your Immortal Soul is one the line— whether you choose to believe or not is your personal ‘free agency’; but being a traitor to God and Nation’s as Unique a form of Republican Government design to protect You and Yours, on separate and equal station with the Person who is Naturalized or natural...You alone are responsible for you!
In SB 744: --“..establishing a coherent and just system for integrating those persons who seek to join American society":
COHERENT means “Connected; united, by some relation in form or order; followed by to, but rather by with. ..Consistent; having a due agreement of parts; as a coherent discourse. Or observing due agreement; as a coherent thinker or reasoner.”.
In the Obama Socialist-Anti-Law Regime” coherent exists only if ‘those persons who see to join American society = undocumented which = illegal; and if the Federal Code of law for Illegals is abandoned; and ICE shall not remove any illegal arrested for crimes until the “California’s third-strike” law is applied.
JUST means "upright, honest, having principles of rectitude: " In morality, rightness of principle or practice; uprightness of mind; exact conformity to truth, or to the rules prescribed for moral conduct, either by divine or human laws. Rectitude of mind is the disposition to act in conformity to any known standard of right, truth or justice; rectitude of conduct is the actual conformity to such standard. Perfect rectitude belongs only to the Supreme Being. The more nearly the rectitude of men approaches to the standard of the divine law, the more exalted and dignified is their character. Want of rectitude is not only sinful, but debasing.
In the Obama Socialist Regime, there is no ‘just’; unless you, as a member of your designated government-group means you are ‘just’ and correct in your submission and subjugation to, Elected-We the People-member’s signing of SB 744 and any other redistribution and production of any human value deemed to require revisionist-ethics absent God’s laws; governance by number / majority absent “A faculty of the mind by which it distinguishes truth from falsehood, and good from evil, and which enables the possessor to deduce inferences from facts or from propositions.”— Reason – i.e. Knowledge, wisdom for Justice and Truth; And
Because Person of Soul - Reason - Religion and Morality - Truth are excluded, the UN Charter / UDHR/WSIS/Obama Socialist-modern Marxist-Alinsky-Man’s Law absent God, the words which are common to many Nation’s ‘words-only’, affirmation of dignity and value, absent internal government of conscience, all the Article’s language with ethics is contradictory, sophistry, and falsehood.
Many Readers see "opinion" and think about the "You have a Right to your Opinion" or "That's your Opinion", which owns the consequences written on FB’s NewsFeed and Israel, Syria, the Individual Persons among our elected-Representatives who declare by both word and deed that our Republic under God is Null and Void; and the Laws of Both Founding Documents, "George Washington and Israel" with "In God We Trust" shall be considered base and inferior to man.
Obama Socialist Regime-Deeds must include who can tell the biggest lie, deceit, collusion, and infringe on the rights of others with the greatest degree of profane-wrong.
Opinion is not Truth. When used with our Republican Form of government’s "Religion and Morality" in Nature and God’s Laws, there is a probability that truth exists; but even then there is No Universal - Absolute Truth --- though that definition of "opinion" will be frozen- out of revisionist-language.to result in "Chicken Little's falling sky" - GW - Agenda 21 (which just met again, May 13-17,2013) - Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen, Nitrogen will have an appearance of underground-alinsky’s, "The third rule of ethics of means and ends is that in war the end justifies almost any means...." and “ The tenth rule... is you do what you can with what you have and clothe it with moral garments.... It involves sifting the multiple factors which combine in creating the circumstances at any given time... Who, and how many will support the action?... If weapons are needed, then are appropriate d weapons available? Availability of means determines whether you will be underground or above ground; whether you will move quickly or slowly..." .
--- “..Establishes in the Treasury the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Trust Fund. ..; ---“.. establish a two-year grant program to improve emergency communications in the Southwest border region.”:
Title One utilizes and duplicates several of the “Obama anti-law Cabinets” , with concomitant taxpayer $$$, and borrowed from other nations, and individuals - banks $$$$; led by some persons who, by deeds, have declared they shall not support the Laws of Both Founding Documents: “Operation Stonegarden is a federal grant program administered by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), a component of the Department of Homeland Security, as part of the State Homeland Security Grant Program. Stonegarden provides funding to state, local, and tribal law enforcement agencies to enhance their capabilities “to jointly secure U.S. borders and territories.”1 Funds are to be used for additional law enforcement personnel, overtime pay, and travel and lodging for deployment of state and local personnel to “further increase our presence along the borders.”
Senators, Have you asked yourself this question: "Why on earth would taxpayer earnings be needed pay billions in electrical paraphernalia, when all we really need to do is enforce the Federal Code of Regulations; And given the Socialist-modern Marxist-Alinsky Anti-Law, who are going to enforce any resemblance to sovereignty of our nation's Borders, ie Agenda 21 enforced absent Congress and even the Kyoto Protocol, if you are illegal, "Come-On-Down:-)" you're another Body which can punch and fill-in dots!!! as numbers rather than knowledge, wisdom, for Truth --?
Representatives-Elected We the People: Each-one-Person of you are now referred to as the “Ruling Class” because you actually believe you Own - as property - Taxpayer earnings from 2000+ hours of work per year; and fully support the required by honor and stewardship of the American Taxpayer; a Treasury leader who prints paper to call it $$$; and a Government which denies “seeing” and is “deaf” to the Anti-Law of the Federal Reserve utilizing taxpayer dollars to provide to cities $25,000 Loans for private citizens to purchase private homes; And
— “Prohibits the Secretary from adjusting RPI aliens to lawful permanent resident status, with certain exceptions, [listed]..”; and ““Authorizes the Secretary, after conducting the required national security and law enforcement clearances, to grant RPI status to an alien unlawfully in the United States who [Lists rules]:
Illegal people have broken the law. They shall not be rewarded with citizenship under any circumstance, since doing so removes the Laws of Both Founding Documents and the Sovereign rights of ALL American. Please recognize the redistribution and production of licentious-revisionist ethics. ‘Just’ means distribution and allocation and access of United States collective-government-defined people – never individual person, i.e. composed of Both Body and Soul; And
The sole purpose of the “Obama Socialist Regime” is to stuff ballot boxes among gerrymander districts, divided by skin color/race (though the supreme Court’s piecemeal-judging of the splinter in VRA - race; while completely ignoring English language or need to obtain “Information needed to make a proper determination can be withheld or distorted in a way that is intended to mislead or which has that effect through Negligence>” is not allowed and often is forbidden, especially by innuendo such as “Right Wing Extremists” and cordoned off – by political subject positions those of differing points of view - not acceptable to the “Obama Socialist Anti-law Regime”.
“ - An unconstitutional statute is not a law, no matter how vigorously it may be enforced. Enforcement does not make what is enforced the law. What is enforced is a regime. In our
constitutional republic, the law and the regime should coincide. If they do not, the regime is not law but anti-law.” at http://constitution.org/consprin.txt

This term in its particular application means "that dominion which one man claims and exercises over the external things of the world, in exclusion of every other individual."
ReplyDeleteIn its larger and juster meaning, it embraces every thing to which a man may attach a value and have a right; and which leaves to every one else the like advantage.
In the former sense, a man's land, or merchandize, or money is called his property.
In the latter sense, a man has a property in his opinions and the free communication of them.
He has a property of peculiar value in his religious opinions, and in the profession and practice dictated by them.
He has a property very dear to him in the safety and liberty of his person.
He has an equal property in the free use of his faculties and free choice of the objects on which to employ them.
In a word, as a man is said to have a right to his property, he may be equally said to have a property in his rights.
Where an excess of power prevails, property of no sort is duly respected. No man is safe in his opinions, his person, his faculties, or his possessions
Government is instituted to protect property of every sort; as well that which lies in the various rights of individuals, as that which the term particularly expresses. This being the end of government, that alone is a just government, which impartially secures to every man, whatever is his own.
According to this standard of merit, the praise of affording a just securing to property, should be sparingly bestowed on a government which, however scrupulously guarding the possessions of individuals, does not protect them in the enjoyment and communication of their opinions, in which they have an equal, and in the estimation of some, a more valuable property.
More sparingly should this praise be allowed to a government, where a man's religious rights are violated by penalties, or fettered by tests, or taxed by a hierarchy. Conscience is the most sacred of all property; other property depending in part on positive law, the exercise of that, being a natural and unalienable right. To guard a man's house as his castle, to pay public and enforce private debts with the most exact faith, can give no title to invade a man's conscience which is more sacred than his castle, or to withhold from it that debt of protection, for which the public faith is pledged, by the very nature and original conditions of the social pact.
That is not a just government, nor is property secure under it, where the property which a man has in his personal safety and personal liberty, is violated by arbitrary seizures of one class of citizens for the service of the rest. A magistrate issuing his warrants to a press gang, would be in his proper functions in Turkey or Indostan, under appellations proverbial of the most compleat despotism.
That is not a just government, nor is property secure under it, where arbitrary restrictions, exemptions, and monopolies deny to part of its citizens that free use of their faculties, and free choice of their occupations, which not only constitute their property in the general sense of the word; but are the means of acquiring property strictly so called. What must be the spirit of legislation where a manufacturer of linen cloth is forbidden to bury his own child in a linen shroud, in order to favour his neighbour who manufactures woolen cloth; where the manufacturer and wearer of woolen cloth are again forbidden the oeconomical use of buttons of that material, in favor of the manufacturer of buttons of other materials!
