Now it is time for me to tell the world to wake up about America before it is too late for them. I have been aware of a disturbing change in the US government for the last 12 years. It seems that the world has slept through this change and does not realize what America has become. I will outline some major problems, go into specific subjects and cite examples of how America has changed, yes, we are indeed no longer free. Much of what is written in this report is from my own personal experience. This is a warning to the world to watch out for the new America. America is no longer the moral guardian you knew it to be, in recent years America has become a tyrant unprecedented. Control Of Media The American press can no longer be trusted. When the Government passed the Telecommunications act of 1996, it allowed consolidation of the media and control of all information received by the people to a small group of sources. This showed itself as large media mergers and virtually all information was soon controlled by the same small group of people. In June of 2003 additional legislation was passed which now allows all the news to be controlled from a single source. The day I typed this I called CN8 live, a national cable news program to speak on the air. They took my personal information including name, address and phone number. They then hung up and called me back to verify that I really was at that address. They then said something that scared me half to death, They said that if I did not stay on subject and say what I told them I would say that they would " notify the authorities " . I am someone who has called news programs frequently in the past, and that never happened before. Itís obviously a new policy. So much for a free press. Police Brutality I know a man who manages a store close to where I live. His brother has a sixteen year old boy and seven year old girl. Outside his brotherís house some police were beating a man who was laying down on the road and not fighting back. The sixteen year old opened the window and shouted at the police, telling them that they were doing too much and that they did not need to beat the man so hard. They did not let up, instead they kicked in the door to the house and assaulted the boy. So now they were beating up the man on the street and beating up the kid in the house. The seven year old girl ran to the officer who kicked in the door and tried pulling him off her brother. The officer pushed her away so hard that she hit the wall and broke her arm. It never made the news. This is not an isolated incident, it is the new America. Contrast this with the glossy happy-go-lucky " police are great and accountable for their actions " media coverage on shows like Real TV and " Cops " , there is much more to the truth than we are allowed to see. In the past I had heard stories like this from strangers but did not believe them until I heard it from someone I knew well. Indeed the foreign governments who have started to call the US a police state are much more correct than they realize. I am waiting for them to have the courage to say it without retracting comment. Asset Forfeiture America has a new policy towards personal property called " asset forfeiture " . This is the act of confiscating property without a trial. The way it works is this: The police accuse you of a crime and take whatever they say you had in your possession when the alleged crime was committed. This could be a vehicle such as a boat or car, or a computer, or even your house. You have to go to court to prove your innocence to get it back, and if you win your case you have to pay a return fee which is usually 50% of the property value. If they take a car that was worth 12,000 you will have to pay 6,000 to get it back. If you cannot afford the 6,000 they will sell it at auction to " recover " their " funds " . If you have a loan or mortgage on the property they sell at auction, you are still obligated to pay the bank for what you no longer have. This happens frequently and the evidence is easy to find. Go to Google and type the search term " US government auctions " or " asset forfeiture auction " or pick any state and add the word auction. The auctions are everywhere, selling property seized from people who were often judged by the courts innocent. If you are a property owner with tenants in a 200 room apartment complex and one of the tenants gets arrested in an apartment for possession of drugs or stolen property, or committing a crime such as calling a prostitute to his room, the city or state can take the apartment building away from the owner who was not involved in any way and say that the property committed the crime and therefore needed to be taken. Confiscation of large complexes has happened more than once, confiscation of single family rental houses and private homes is frequent. Forcing A Crime It has become common for a judge to force a crime. The way this is done is to issue a civil judgement that cannot possibly be implemented by the person the judgement is against. When the person the judgement is issued against fails to implement the judgement, a civil matter becomes criminal due to " contempt of court " . This is commonplace in family law when a man is forced to pay ìchild supportî Child support judgements often leave a man with less than 20 percent of his income after taxes, despite the 50% rule. This forces the person the judgement is against to make a decision - pay " child support " as ordered and suffer severe hardship, often including dependence on friends or being homeless or living in a car or camper, or get behind on " child support " and become a " criminal " due to contempt of court. Violation Of Ex Post Facto In the constitutional republic the United States used to be, there was a rule of ex post fato which prevented any government, be it federal state or local from writing retroactive laws. But since 1987 there has been a new and disturbing trend. The federal government along with many states and municipalities has started to write and enact retroactive laws. As an example, let's say that in 1998 you painted your house and at that time it was legal to paint your house without a permit. If in 2003 your municipality writes a retroactive law that states that you now needed a permit to paint your house, and makes it retroactive to 1995, you will be in violation and guilty of breaking the law in 1998. Retroactive laws are commonplace now and are usually enacted in the areas of taxes, family policy, and land usage. It is a frequent event now to have people suddenly discover they owe huge sums of money or are now subject to punishment for doing things that were legal when they did them. The public tolerance of the now commonplace violations of ex post facto has opened an avenue through which governmental bodies are prosecuting people for violations they did not commit, collecting taxes that were never owed and seizing properties which were " improperly used " in the past. Legislation Without Representation Starting in the late 1980's, most states authorized the practice of legislation without representation. It is standard practice now for un-elected people in state agencies to enact policy and write laws that were never voted on, approved, or asked for by the public. Legislation without representation often takes place in secret, with the public unaware of what is happening until the new law is put in place and enforced. This has removed accountability from government and allowed serious abusive practices to be implemented without the presence of any individual or group to be held accountable. My own personal experience with legislation without representation occurred when I calculated that over 80 percent of my income was being taken in taxes and " child support " for two children. I called the child support agency and asked them who wrote the laws that made such a thing possible. I wanted to know which senator, representative or other elected official was responsible for enacting such a draconian policy. The state agent replied: " The child support statutes were enacted by this child support agency and have nothing to do with elected officials. As for the individuals who write the policy, you are not permitted to know who is involved " . This most serious practice, probably the one that has destroyed our freedom the most, is occurring everywhere through many avenues, not only " child support " . Legislation without representation allows a corrupt government to thrive because the people who write the legislation are employees of the government who work in secret, will never be held accountable and cannot be voted out of office. In a democracy, the people can effect change by voting the people who are going against their will out of power. Legislation without representation circumvents the democratic process and takes the will of the people out of government. Due to the now common practice of legislation without representation, America can no longer be considered a true democracy. Road Closures In the back country they are closing down the roads to limit access. If you get caught riding even a bicycle on the road beyond the barrier, having left you car at the barrier, they will confiscate the bike, the car, and throw you in prison, and you will lose everything 100%. I was familiar with the back country of the intermountain west and noticed that around 1996 the road closures began to happen. I believe the closures are an attempt to de-familiarize the public with alternate routes of escape in the event of a police lockdown or martial law. They also closed down any road that led to safe water in remote regions. In High School, I had a German teacher who was alive during Hitler's reign and she said that Hitler closed down access to the wilderness areas after the Reichstag was burned which proved to be an effective method of eliminating resistance from the portion of the population which did not agree with him. She warned us to never let it happen here. Road closures are usually done with very large immovable barriers such as boulders or trenches and signs warning of what will happen if you get caught attempting to travel beyond them. Citizen Spies In the name of fighting terrorism, the so-called " department of homeland security " has employed a network of citizen spies who may have in reality been hired to identify people who are upset with the new government policies. When the Reichstag was burned, Hitler also set up his network of citizen spies. Was Sep11 a Reichstag? One thing is certain, the videos you can download now are not the same as the ones I downloaded on Sep12. Immediately after Sep11 they clearly showed explosives going off in sequence, bringing the buildings down in a perfect demolition wave. Most of the ones you can find now no longer show the explosions, they have been " photoshopped " out. Terror is a common tactic or excuse used by oppressive governments to get the people to give up their freedoms for a little bit of security. Hitler used this tactic after the burning of the Reichstag to justify the military actions he took in the opening days of World War II. To keep the population safe from terror, Hitler also employed his network of citizen spies who did little but turn their neighbors in for expressing dissenting views. Common Police Searches It has become commonplace now for police to stop people for no reason and search them. This began long before Sep11. This has happened to me personally three times, once at a roadblock, once when I was walking on my way to work, and once when I was sleeping in my van due to homelessness caused by a divorce. It would have happened many times, but I got good at spotting the roadblocks - just look for a traffic jam with evenly timed cars coming toward you in the opposite lane. Normally, the traffic jam would be long enough to allow me to pull a u-turn without being seen. I never did anything wrong, but I hate those road blocks. Anonymous Accusation In recent years, Federal, state and local law enforcement bodies have started arresting and punishing people due to anonymous accusations. Now when you show up in court you have no right to know who has accused you of a crime. Without any chance of any repercussions, individuals, groups and organizations now commonly issue accusations to get revenge, gain unfair advantage, or simply because they were going on assumption rather than actually being witness. The right to know your accuser was a cornerstone of American justice; it created an environment which brought accountability to legal prosecution. Without it, people are now going to jail, being fined, and losing their children in civil disputes without ever knowing why. http://www.libertyforum.org/showflat.php?Cat= & Board=news_ government & Number=1013010#Post1013010 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 8, 2003 Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 This is an interesting article illustrating that our constitutional Republic and our sovereignty has been usurped. I have an article on my web site that reveals how our lawful government has been usurped. Go to http://www.HealthFreedom.info, click on "FREEDOM INFO", then click on the American Bar Association article. I and many others have challenged jurisdiction in American "Courts" only to expose the biggest fraud perpetrated on the American people.

Guest guest Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 The problem with the government is that they are trying to take over the country! My best, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 14, 2003 Report Share Posted December 14, 2003 That is closer to the truth than you may think Dan. The Airistocracy -- for that is indeed how they see themselves -- that has taken over all three branches of the U.S. Government, as well as the press, has come to believe that they are U.S. Government. They ARE NOT the U.S. Government! We the People are the rightful government of these United States, and those in the Executive, Legislative and Judicial branches are supposed to represent us. With a few notable exceptions such as Dennis Kucinich, they stopped representing We the People a long time ago. The Bush Crime Family has turned the Congress of the United States into a vending machine for the rich and powerful. They just put their coins (campaign donations) into the slot, push the button and out pops legislation favorable to their corporate bottom lines. Too bad if that legislation harms the environment, the economy, freedom, international relations, et al. They call a plan to roll back the Clean Air Act " The Clean Skys Initiative, " a plan to wipe out old growth forests " The Healthy Forest Initiative, " and so on. According to Mussolini, the definition of fascism is the merging of Government and Corporate interests ( " Corporatism " ). When one takes an honest look at what is going on (hell, they are not even trying to hide it anymore) it becomes apparent that they are attempting to turn the middle class into serfs for a new fascist / aristocratic government. Where is the outrage? (!!!) I recently received a slick brochure from New Mexico Congresscritter Heather Wilson -- printed and mailed at government expense -- in which she was attempting to convince We the People of what a wonderful critter she is because she voted for the Medicare bill that was recently rammed through the Congress by Tom (The Exterminator) Delay and signed by the Shrub. I mention it because the entire brochure is one lie after another about how the legislation will effect senior citizens. One such lie that stood out was that the bill " Lowers overall costs of prescription drugs through competition and bulk purchasing. " (emphasis in original.) Anyone who has read the bill -- or even a synopsis of it -- knows that it specifically prohibits competition and bulk pricing. Pharmaceutical company and HMO stocks soared upon hearing news that the bill had passed. They are not just putting a " spin " on it but lying outright about their intentions. It reminds me of the old joke I can tell that they are lying because their lips moving. Unfortunately, where Republicans (and the DLC brand of Democrats) are concerned, it is no longer a joke but a fact of life. >The problem with the government is that they are trying to take over >the country! > >My best, >Dan -- Neil Jensen: neil The WWW VL: Sumeria http://www.sumeria.net/ " Dragons is sooooo stupid!
