Beyond Conspiracy: Police State America.
First, enclosed below, you'll find links to the Declaration of Independence
and The US Constitution as well as to letters and commentary by the Founding
Fathers. There is also a link to a copy of your state's constitution. Also
enclosed below are government references and resources, including links to the
texts of bills and laws along with references to related material.
The factual and objective narrative is completed herein through the reference
to news reports and articles as well as links to related commentary. As
extensive as this list might at first appear, for all practical purposes,
using this means to share a complete documentation of all the relevant data
would be impossible.
In compiling this information I didn't use a single reference to FISA (Public
Law 95-511), The Patriot Act (H.R. 3162) or to our "evil, alien Lizard
Overlords." The facts tell their own stories quite well, all by themselves.
In the real world, in spite of our assumptions to the contrary, the
Constitution, as President Bush once stated, is just another - ahem - piece
of paper. President Obama has called it '...a flawed document."
Whether you are left or right of the aisle, whether you consider yourself to
be 'red' or 'black' or 'brown' or 'white' or even green with purple
polka-dots, be sure to see who sponsored each bill...and then see exactly who
voted for it. In any case, this is no longer about political or religious
affiliations or about social or fiscal ideologies.
It is about freedom.

Habeas Corpus. Definition.
http://habeascorpus.net/hcwrit.html Habeas
Corpus is an ancient common law prerogative writ - a legal procedure to which
you have an undeniable right. It is an extraordinary remedy at law. Upon
proper application, or even on naked knowledge alone, a court is empowered,
and is duty bound, to issue the Extraordinary Writ of Habeas Corpus
commanding one who is restraining liberty to forthwith produce before the
court the person who is in custody and to show cause why the liberty of that
person is being restrained. Absent a sufficient showing for a proper
restraint of liberty, the court is duty bound to order the restraint
eliminated and the person discharged. Habeas Corpus is fundamental to
American and all other English common law derivative systems of
jurisprudence. It is the ultimate lawful and peaceable remedy for
adjudicating the providence of liberty's restraint.

Civil Disturbance Operations
Civil disturbances arise from acts of civil disobedience. They occur most
often when participants in mass acts of civil disobedience become
antagonistic toward authority, and authorities must struggle to wrest the
initiative from an unruly crowd. In the extreme, civil disturbances include
criminal acts of terrorism. Civil disturbances, in any form, are prejudicial
to public law and order.

This chapter presents a brief historical perspective and concept of Army
domestic support operations, the principles of operations other than war that
apply to these operations, and a description of the Army's role. The Army
consists of the active component (AC), the Army National Guard (ARNG), the US
Army Reserve (USAR), and Department of Army (DA) civilians. The National
Guard (NG), in a state or territorial status, has primary responsibility for
providing military assistance to state and local civil authorities.

age for beautiful gestures. We're after power and we mean it. You fellows
were pikers, but we know the real trick, and you'd better get wise to it.
There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the
power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals,
one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes
impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of
law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind
of laws that can neither be enforced nor objectively interpreted and you
create a nation of law-breakers and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the
system, Mr Rearden, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be
much easier to deal with."
- "Atlas Shrugged," Ayn Rand, 1957.
b.) Unjust laws exist: shall we be content to obey them, or shall we
endeavor to amend them, and obey them until we have succeeded, or shall we
transgress them at once? Men, generally, under such a government as this,
think that they ought to wait until they have persuaded the majority to alter
them. They think that, if they should resist, the remedy would be worse than
the evil. But it is the fault of the government itself that the remedy is
worse than the evil. It makes it worse. Why is it not more apt to anticipate
and provide for reform? Why does it not cherish its wise minority? Why does
it cry and resist before it is hurt? Why does it not encourage its citizens
to put out its faults, and do better than it would have them? - Henry David
Thoreau, "Resistance to Civil Government." 1849.

c.) "To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of
his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose
fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate
arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the
free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it."
-Thomas Jefferson, letter to Joseph Milligan, April 6, 1816

a.) "The spirit of the times may alter, will alter. Our rulers will
become corrupt, our people careless. A single zealot may commence persecutor,
and better men be his victims. It can never be too often repeated that the
time for fixing every essential right on a legal basis is while our rulers
are honest and ourselves united. From the conclusion of [their] war [for
independence, a nation begins] going down hill. It will not then be necessary
to resort every moment to the people for support. They will be forgotten,
therefore, and their rights disregarded. They will forget themselves but in
the sole faculty of making money, and will never think of uniting to effect a
due respect for their rights. The shackles, therefore, which shall not be
knocked off at the conclusion of [that] war will remain on [them] long, will
be made heavier and heavier, till [their] rights shall revive or expire in a
convulsion." --Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia Q.XVII, 1782

rulers. In the next age they loved them and praised them. In the next they
feared them; in the next they despised them" -Lao-Tzu

c.) "And how we burned in the camps later thinking: What would things
have been like if every operative, when he went out at night to make an
arrest, had been uncertain wether he would return alive and had to say
goodbye to his family? Or if during periods of mass arrests people had not
simply sat in thier lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the door and
at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing to lose
and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall a half dozen people with axes,
hammers pokers or whatever was at hand..."

Beyond Conspiracy: Police State America.
First, enclosed below, you'll find links to the Declaration of Independence
and The US Constitution as well as to letters and commentary by the Founding
Fathers. There is also a link to a copy of your state's constitution. Also
enclosed below are government references and resources, including links to the
texts of bills and laws along with references to related material.
The factual and objective narrative is completed herein through the reference
to news reports and articles as well as links to related commentary. As
extensive as this list might at first appear, for all practical purposes,
using this means to share a complete documentation of all the relevant data
would be impossible.
In compiling this information I didn't use a single reference to FISA (Public
Law 95-511), The Patriot Act (H.R. 3162) or to our "evil, alien Lizard
Overlords." The facts tell their own stories quite well, all by themselves.
In the real world, in spite of our assumptions to the contrary, the
Constitution, as President Bush once stated, is just another - ahem - piece
of paper. President Obama has called it '...a flawed document."
Whether you are left or right of the aisle, whether you consider yourself to
be 'red' or 'black' or 'brown' or 'white' or even green with purple
polka-dots, be sure to see who sponsored each bill...and then see exactly who
voted for it. In any case, this is no longer about political or religious
affiliations or about social or fiscal ideologies.
It is about freedom.

Habeas Corpus. Definition.
http://habeascorpus.net/hcwrit.html Habeas
Corpus is an ancient common law prerogative writ - a legal procedure to which
you have an undeniable right. It is an extraordinary remedy at law. Upon
proper application, or even on naked knowledge alone, a court is empowered,
and is duty bound, to issue the Extraordinary Writ of Habeas Corpus
commanding one who is restraining liberty to forthwith produce before the
court the person who is in custody and to show cause why the liberty of that
person is being restrained. Absent a sufficient showing for a proper
restraint of liberty, the court is duty bound to order the restraint
eliminated and the person discharged. Habeas Corpus is fundamental to
American and all other English common law derivative systems of
jurisprudence. It is the ultimate lawful and peaceable remedy for
adjudicating the providence of liberty's restraint.

Civil Disturbance Operations
Civil disturbances arise from acts of civil disobedience. They occur most
often when participants in mass acts of civil disobedience become
antagonistic toward authority, and authorities must struggle to wrest the
initiative from an unruly crowd. In the extreme, civil disturbances include
criminal acts of terrorism. Civil disturbances, in any form, are prejudicial
to public law and order.

This chapter presents a brief historical perspective and concept of Army
domestic support operations, the principles of operations other than war that
apply to these operations, and a description of the Army's role. The Army
consists of the active component (AC), the Army National Guard (ARNG), the US
Army Reserve (USAR), and Department of Army (DA) civilians. The National
Guard (NG), in a state or territorial status, has primary responsibility for
providing military assistance to state and local civil authorities.

The real barrier to Barack Obama's 'responsibility' era.

61.) quotes.
a.) "Did you really think that we want those laws to be observed?" said
Dr. Ferris. "We want them broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not
a bunch of boy scouts you're up against then you'll know that this is not the
age for beautiful gestures. We're after power and we mean it. You fellows
were pikers, but we know the real trick, and you'd better get wise to it.
There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the
power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals,
one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes
impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of
law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind
of laws that can neither be enforced nor objectively interpreted and you
create a nation of law-breakers and then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the
system, Mr Rearden, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be
much easier to deal with."
- "Atlas Shrugged," Ayn Rand, 1957.
b.) Unjust laws exist: shall we be content to obey them, or shall we
endeavor to amend them, and obey them until we have succeeded, or shall we
transgress them at once? Men, generally, under such a government as this,
think that they ought to wait until they have persuaded the majority to alter
them. They think that, if they should resist, the remedy would be worse than
the evil. But it is the fault of the government itself that the remedy is
worse than the evil. It makes it worse. Why is it not more apt to anticipate
and provide for reform? Why does it not cherish its wise minority? Why does
it cry and resist before it is hurt? Why does it not encourage its citizens
to put out its faults, and do better than it would have them? - Henry David
Thoreau, "Resistance to Civil Government." 1849.
http://eserver.org/thoreau/civil.html
c.) "To take from one, because it is thought his own industry and that of
his fathers has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose
fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate
arbitrarily the first principle of association, the guarantee to everyone the
free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it."

65.) quotes.
a.) "The spirit of the times may alter, will alter. Our rulers will
become corrupt, our people careless. A single zealot may commence persecutor,
and better men be his victims. It can never be too often repeated that the
time for fixing every essential right on a legal basis is while our rulers
are honest and ourselves united. From the conclusion of [their] war [for
independence, a nation begins] going down hill. It will not then be necessary
to resort every moment to the people for support. They will be forgotten,
therefore, and their rights disregarded. They will forget themselves but in
the sole faculty of making money, and will never think of uniting to effect a
due respect for their rights. The shackles, therefore, which shall not be
knocked off at the conclusion of [that] war will remain on [them] long, will
be made heavier and heavier, till [their] rights shall revive or expire in a
convulsion." --Thomas Jefferson: Notes on Virginia Q.XVII, 1782
http://etext.virginia.edu/toc/modeng/public/JefVirg.html
b.) "In the highest antiquity, the people did not know that there were
rulers. In the next age they loved them and praised them. In the next they
feared them; in the next they despised them" -Lao-Tzu
http://classics.mit.edu/Lao/taote.html
c.) "And how we burned in the camps later thinking: What would things
have been like if every operative, when he went out at night to make an
arrest, had been uncertain wether he would return alive and had to say
goodbye to his family? Or if during periods of mass arrests people had not
simply sat in thier lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the door and
at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing to lose
and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall a half dozen people with axes,
hammers pokers or whatever was at hand..."
