Section 21 — Capacity of the People

While the subject matter of a case will often immediately determine the correct jurisdiction and
court to hear it, the issue of “capacity in which the Parties act” is by no means as clear-cut, and
requires due diligence.

Consider the sentence: “Marc is one of the people who built the Cross River Bridge.” “Marc” is
obviously a man who helped build a bridge and he did so in an unincorporated capacity, because
the word “people” was used.
If we said, “Marc is one of the persons who built the Cross River Bridge.” we would have an
entirely different flavor and meaning. This would imply that “Marc” is the name of a corporation
or business of some kind that was involved in building the bridge.
It’s the same name, but different capacities are indicated. This applies all across the board:

Marc Allen Jones is a member of our football team. [Unincorporated Capacity].

Marc Allen Jones is American. [Corporate Capacity — International Trade — International Land
Jurisdiction]

Marc Allen Jones, Inc. provides tax accounting services. [Incorporated Capacity — International
Commerce — International Jurisdiction of the Sea]
We, too, can choose to act in the capacity of one of the people (our national soil jurisdiction) or
one of the People (our international land jurisdiction) or as a Person —(international sea
jurisdiction or municipal jurisdiction).

When we act as one of the People standing on our international land jurisdiction, we use a Trade
Name, like “John Michael Downing”. We use the same “style” of Proper Name while operating
as a “United States Person” in the international jurisdiction of the sea.

It’s the same name, but two different jurisdictions, two different capacities.
The entire Great Fraud which has been worked against us and our country has hinged on that fact
and our employees accidentally-on-purpose misunderstanding the capacity in which we are
acting.
“John Michael Downing”, one of the People of Minnesota, standing peacefully as a State Citizen
on the international land jurisdiction of Minnesota, is owed all the guarantees of the
Constitutions and international treaties he is heir to. If he goes to sea (enters international sea
jurisdiction) the British Monarch owes him protection. If he enters municipal jurisdiction, the
Pope owes him protection.

“John Michael Downing” “U.S. Citizen”, acting in the capacity of a Person adrift on the
international jurisdiction of the sea without a declared permanent domicile, has no guarantees, no
treaties, and is presumed to be a Ward of the Territorial State of Minnesota or the Municipal
STATE OF MINNESOTA. He has no constitutional guarantees or protections at all.

Those intent upon plundering and pillaging us have, of course, chosen to interpret the capacity in
which we are acting to suit themselves and their purposes. They have been eager to mis-
characterize us as “U.S. Citizens” living in Territorial “States of States” or Municipal STATES
OF STATES instead of as Americans living in actual States of the Union — and to abuse us
accordingly.
