As a nation we have more citizens in prison than any country in the
world – over two million – and ninety percent of the crimes of which they are
accused are victimless crimes. The law they violated most likely was paid for
by corporations to protect them from us.
We, however, are the problem, because we operate like the tool of
the new king and we do his bidding without questioning whether the
law is a good law or a bad one. It is our responsibility as jurors to ask
those questions, but we have let the prosecutor and the judge tell us
what the law means instead of using God’s gift of intelligence to discern
for ourselves. We are responsible for determining not only the facts but
also the law. If that were not true, then we would still have legal slavery
and be prosecuting people for helping slaves escape under the Fugitive
Slave Act. That law was interpreted and upheld by the courts of the
time. Decent jurors who did not agree exercised their right of jury
nullification, the most cherished right we as Americans possess.
We now have replaced morality with abortion on demand, and if we do
not kill our children in the womb, we tax them to death the moment they are
born. Does it not seem immoral to permit a Congress to spend money that
it does not have so that every future generation will be obligated to pay, from
their labor and property for their entire life, on a debt that is sixty or eighty
years old? The moment your child is born, she has a debt to the Federal
Reserve Bank, Inc., of $22,000 and rising. It is not only immoral; it is the
thing of which violent revolutions are made. If we do not stop this insanity
here and now, our grandchildren will, and it will not be pleasant. Waco,
Texas, is the example of what the New King wanted us to see, because that is
our future if we do not comply with the King’s demands.
We permitted our government to negotiate and pass the NAFTA and
GATT treaties, which guaranteed that this nation will never again be an
industrial or technological world power, assuring that our people are doomed
to a third-world agrarian life within the next fifty years.
As I write this introduction, my book is finished and I have reviewed its
contents. Because of my knowledge of government corruption, I am becoming
incensed while organizing my thoughts for this introduction. My antagonism
was so great while I was researching that I expatriated my citizenship from
the corporate UNITED STATES. That expatriation document is in the first
chapter of this book and sets the tempo for the remainder. I hope that if
nothing else you will come away from this reading experience a wiser and
more determined citizen of your state, with a passion for recovering what was
ours and what was stolen from us.
