Are you looking for Solutions for America in Distress
You are in the right place to find out about what is really going on behind the scenes in the patriot movement in America, including solutions from Oathkeepers, Anna Von Reitz, Constitutional Sheriffs, Richard Mack, and many more people who are leading the charge to restore America to freedom and peace. Please search on the right for over 10,360 articles.
You will find some conflicting views from some of these authors. You will also find that all the authors are deeply concerned about the future of America. WHAT THEY WRITE IS THEIR OWN OPINION, just as what I write is my own.
Like everything else, the office of the county sheriff has been under assault by the rats. All "counties" like all "states" are now operating as commercial corporations. This is indicated by the use of the word "of" in all states that have adopted the Uniform Commercial Code---- thus you have the "State of Utah" and the "County of Maricopa". Anytime you see the word "of" you know you are dealing with a commercial corporation no different in nature than Sears or Burger King, Inc. These are all "states of states" under the UCC and though they claim to "represent" your government and provide governmental services, you have to always be aware and keep in mind that these corporations are NOT your lawful government. They are just corporations fulfilling "government functions" under contract.
In the same way you and your county sheriff have to be aware that his actual elected office is owed to the land jurisdiction of the Continental United States and to the people who live in his county on the land, NOT to some corporation making a buck providing "public services" and operating in the international jurisdiction of the sea--- which is foreign to us.
The actual Constitution and the rights it guarantees are owed to the land jurisdiction of the Continental United States. The Constitution is not being respected by the Federal United States and its "agencies" operating in the international jurisdiction of the sea because these agencies are subcontractors---- privately owned corporations in the business of providing public services, not your true government providing public services.
The upshot of it is that the men employed as "County Sheriffs" are receiving their paychecks funded off your estates and tax dollars from middlemen who are employees of privately owned corporations acting as subcontractors providing "government services". Those middlemen, including the politicians, don't think that they actually work for you. They think that they work for the corporation doing business as the "State of Ohio" or the "County of Jackson".
This creates a gross conflict of interest. Time to straighten this all out.
The place where the pedal hits the metal is the office of the county sheriff.
There are 3100 counties in America. Below are listed the 242 sheriffs who know their actual jobs as sheriffs operating the land jurisdiction of the Continental United States and who honoring the Law of the Land, the actual Constitution.
This could make the difference of American Freedom or slavery.
This announcement is in response to the many people that inquired about helping get our local NW Montana county Sheriff's and/or Under Sheriff's to this important Conference.
Right now we are in fundraiser mode. Immediate goal per county is $1,000. I am focused on Flathead County and anything extra raised will go to help out Lincoln and Sanders County for helping get their Sheriff's sent to the CSPOA conference. Please respond with how much you would like to contribute to the cause and I will keep a tally.
For those that would like to help in other ways like 1. getting in touch with your Sheriff(encourage them to attend by phoning, writing or emailing) 2. contacting County Commissioners( encourage them give the Sheriff their blessing by showing up at public comment or getting scheduled on the commissioners agenda) or 3. by attending the Las Vegas CSPOA conference yourself (have considered this myself) please get back to me with how you would like to help out. Thanks! ~Dane
Points of Contact for the counties of Lincoln, Sanders & Flathead:
Q: How much does it cost to get my sheriff there? Can I sponsor my sheriff?
A: If you specify your county and county sheriff’s name, we will ensure he/she gets an official invitation to attend the January 30th meeting. If the donations you collect from your county meet or exceed $1000, your sheriff will have a funded trip to the meeting. If your sheriff declines to attend, then the monies raised will be used to fund another county sheriff’s attendance. If your sheriff accepts the invitation or seeks out a seat at the meeting, and there is not $1000 raised in your county, then your sheriff will be put into the queue for attendance.
Q: Can individuals seeking or planning to seek the office of sheriff in their county attend, and will their expenses also be paid?
A: A limited number of registered candidates for the office of sheriff are welcome to attend, without raising $1000, but must pay their own air fare and accommodations.
Q: Are other people allowed to attend the meeting?
A: A limited number of people who donate $1000 (ensuring a sitting, duly elected county sheriff can attend), and are also pre-approved by the CSPOA Board, may also attend the meetings, but their travel to and from and their own overnight accommodations must be additionally paid for. These individuals will have access to the meetings and training materials and will be included in the group meals that are served.
Q: What does the $1,000 per county sheriff pay for, and how can you show proof of how it is spent?
A: $1,000 will cover the air fare, hotel (2 nights) and catered meals for the attendees. Any additional expenses will be out of pocket to each attendee. Additionally, a portion of the $1,000 will go to help with room rental, audio/visual equipment, Internet connectivity, printing and copying expenses, and some shared expenses of support staff. As the project progresses we will be making an accounting sheet of disbursements available to those who inquire. We are hoping to have volunteers to transport people to and from the airport, etc.
Q: Is there an alternative way to donate other than PayPal at the website?
A: Yes! Please, mail silver or gold, or checks or money orders payable to CSPOA to:
CSPOA
112 Ridgewood Dr.
FredericksburgTX 78624
Q: What if my sheriff is unconstitutional and refuses to attend, even if we paid for his/her way?
A: Many people are raising $1,000 in their county so that they may diplomatically and in good faith request that their county sheriff attend…stressing to their sheriff that there are no obstacles to his/her attendance and that he/she is supported by the people to attend. If that sheriff declines to participate or even have a deputy in a leadership position attend instead, then the people of that county have him/her on record that he/she is not a constitutional sheriff and the people will have that as a story to tell in their county. Some groups are preparing news releases that celebrate their sheriff’s attendance, as well as a news release that criticizes their sheriff for not attending. We will post the news releases at this site as they are issued. You may ask a sheriff candidate of your choice instead.
Q: What is the agenda, what will happen at the meeting?
A: The final agenda is still being formed and will be posted at the website upon completion.
Tentatively, the day is to begin at 9 a.m. And end no sooner than 9 p.m., with lunch and dinner breaks in between. The day’s activities will tentatively include:
Bill of Rights Training from Michael Badnarik
Presentation on the Second Amendment from Larry Pratt
Presentation on the Tenth Amendment and state sovereignty
Presentation on the threat of Agenda 21 to state sovereignty
Presentation on Continental Congress 2009’s Articles of Freedom
County Sheriff Success Stories on Enforcing the Bill of Rights
Presentation on formation of a Sheriff’s Posse
Joint Declaration notifying specific federal agencies about specific violations that county sheriffs will no longer tolerate in their counties.
Q: What is a Constitutional Sheriff?
A: A constitutional sheriff is the only law enforcement officer elected in your county, who follows his/her oath of office by enforcing the Bill of Rights and defending the people’s individual rights, including interposing him/herself between unlawful federal regulatory programs and the people.
Q: If my sheriff does not attend, why should I donate to this project?
A: This project is building a support system for sheriffs in all fifty states. The County Sheriff Project will advance the awareness, understanding and implementation of nullifying unlawful regulations, legislation and tyranny from state and federal government. This project will promote that America peacefully return to its foundational principles, one county at a time, one sheriff at a time.
Q: What violations can the county sheriff prevent?
A: The county sheriff can prevent unlawful searches and seizures, unlawful freezing of individual bank accounts, unlawful foreclosures, unlawful theft of property, unlawful actions by agents of unconstitutional federal agencies such as the FDA, IRS, ATF, EPA and more.
Q: Is this project associated with the national organization, Oath Keepers?
A: The chairman of the County Sheriff and Peace Officer Association, the sponsoring organization of this January 30th meeting, Richard Mack, is also on the board of directors of the Oath Keepers organization. The County Sheriff Project does not speak for the Oath Keepers.
Q: How can I find out if my sheriff has completed a County Sheriff Survey?
A: We will be presenting the results of the County Sheriff Survey issued by CSPOA to the sheriffs in attendance at the meeting. We encourage all to take a copy of the survey and seek an audience with their own county sheriff to arrange for any and all sworn officers to review and respond as publicly as possible to the County Sheriff Survey. We will be determining how to proceed with the results of our own issued survey at the meeting.
Q: How do we know which county sheriffs are attending?
A: We are publishing the names of the CSPOA Board of Directors at the www.CountySheriffProject.org and www.CSPOA.org websites. We will be determining how to publicize the attendees and the results of the January 30th County Sheriff Project at the event, and proceed from there. You are encouraged to lobby your own county sheriff to participate and attend.
Q: There are many topics that I do not see listed at your website that the sheriffs should be considering. How are you addressing issues like illegal immigration, war on drugs, TSA, forced vaccinations and so on?
A: All violations of the people’s individual liberties and freedoms are important and must eventually be addressed. The scope of involvement at this January 30th meeting will be partly determined by the subject matter expertise of the participating sheriffs as well as time limitations. We do not anticipate this meeting being the last meeting of such individuals who seek to enforce the Bill of Rights. Every single violation cannot be covered one by one, there simply is not enough time is one day to cover so many. However, a Constitutional sheriff with our training will be capable of recognizing such abuses and find ways to protect his constituents from all tyrants.
Q: Will this meeting be webcast live while it is happening?
A: No. This will be a private meeting, ensuring that all the county sheriffs have the maximum comfort level and confidentiality to discuss these important matters. All attendees will be known and identified by the CSPOA Board of Directors.
Q: Does Sheriff Mack endorse candidates who are running for various offices around the country?
A: As a rule we do not. Our focus is to gather like-minded elected Sheriffs in one location, and give them the information they need to best understand the Constitution and their oath of office to defend the principles in that document.
Q: Is there a collection started for my county to sponsor our sheriff to attend the convention?
A: We do not have the resources to efficiently track individual county's sponsorships, at this time. If you are willing to begin a fund for your sheriff, you may want to call your sheriff, give him/her your name and phone number and tell him/her that you are taking donations to send him/her to this convention. When others contact him/her, he/she can refer them to you. That way, you would not be duplicating efforts if someone else in your county wants to create a sponsorship as well. If your sheriff tells you that he/she is not interested in attending, you must make your own decision from there to simply donate directly to the Project.
New Mexico just proved that State law trumps unconstitutional federal regulations and that the power of the sheriff is superior over federal agencies. This is the power of the Tenth Amendment!
On September 17th, keeping his Oath of Office to the Constitution and the People, Sheriff Benny House and his SWAT Team protected the tree cutters. The feds backed down! The feds were absent from the Tree Party Rebellion. This is because within the county, the sheriff is the highest law enforcement authority in the land.
It's critical to get this to all on your mailing list. Watch the videos below.
We all need to help get this done.

Subj: A CRITICAL MESSAGE FROM SHERIFF RICHARD MACK!!!
We have started an organization called FREE AMERICA NOW. We have a temporary site online (www.FreeAmericaNow.org). Our regular site will be up and operational in a few days. The education we promised will be provided via this group. We have an excellent group of people involved with these efforts. One of our Board members, Gerry Donaldson, has a radio show on Tuesday evenings which will be a large portion of our educational program. Go to http://www.drawaline.org/.
Below is a plea from Sheriff Richard Mack asking for your help. The US is circling the drain. And for all those who may not be aware, once the US goes down, the rest of the countries will soon follow. It does not matter from which country you hail, you will be well served to dedicate to this endeavor whatever meager or generous amount suits your means. FREE AMERICA NOW is working jointly with Sheriff Mack to ensure the success of this sheriffs project. It is imperative that you recognize the significance of having your county sheriff keep his/her oath to the Constitution and the Bill of Rights and to the People. Having your sheriff attend this conference in Las Vegas will arm him/her with the essentials necessary to implement his/her authority and a support group comprised of other sheriffs around the country. WE NEED OUR SHERIFFS IN OUR CORNER. The sheriff has the authority to stop unlawful foreclosures, IRS freezing our bank accounts and stealing our property, and can stop all this ridiculous encroachment of the various federal agencies. This project will lay the very foundation necessary to begin regaining control of power for and to the People. Each of the 3,141 sheriffs across the country will receive an invitation from Sheriff Mack's office. When that invitation is sent, you will be notified and it will be necessary for you to contact your sheriff personally to prompt his/her attendance. Please do not contact your sheriff about this until that time. If your sheriff is not interested in standing with other Constitutional sheriffs whose numbers are steadily growing, he/she will need to be replaced in your next election. We need to know which sheriffs are for the People and which are for the status quo. This project will help determine just that.
I ask you all to please write your own forward for this letter from Sheriff Mack and send it to as many people as possible. No one can afford to sit idle in these times. It is crucial to get this message out to the masses and ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY TO GET THIS FUNDING!!!!
Mary
What would you do if you knew you had just one chance to save your family and country from complete and utter destruction? What would you do if you knew there was a lawful and peaceful way to restore the Constitution and its Bill of Rights as the supreme law of the land? As a former peace officer and county sheriff, if I were to take the stand in court right this minute, and be sworn to tell the truth, I would, without any hesitation or ambiguity, testify to you and every American, that there is a solution, that there is in fact a way to secure liberty, protect ourselves and our families, and once again live in peace and freedom.
The solution is in your hands, it is within your own backyard, and it is right in your own county. The solution is state sovereignty and each county acting in accordance with the principles established in the 10th Amendment. It's you working with your county sheriff and locally elected officials to stand for the Bill of Rights and stand against the out of control federal government and it agencies.
The bottom line answer is your county sheriff. Ultimately, he is the one who will decide what is and what is not enforced in your county. He has the authority and oath bound duty to interpose himself on your behalf to protect you from all enemies, both foreign and domestic. He is the people's protector.
But the county sheriffs cannot do this alone. They need training, education, and support. To this end, I have helped form the CSPOA or the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officer Association. And, one of our first projects is national convention of up to 200 county sheriffs, targeted to convene in January 2012 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
We can free America now, one county at a time, with the leadership of one county sheriff at a time. In Las Vegas nearly 10% of America's county sheriffs will walk away with the constitutional training and first hand knowledge of fellow sheriffs' success stories in upholding their oaths of office. These constitutional sheriffs will establish a Declaration reaffirming their Oaths and enumerating the federal government violations that will no longer be tolerated.
This convention is a significant step in formalizing a nation of constitutional sheriffs. There is no abuse they will not be able to stop. When the county sheriff enforces the Bill of Rights and upholds his oath of office, we can free America now. No more waiting for the next election, the time to act is now, and it is within your grasp to make this happen.
To make this happen, this project needs your financial support. Our founders pledged their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor to this holy cause. What are you willing to do to restore our republic? We are not asking for your fortunes, but merely that you do what you can. To ensure that each sheriff attends, we must raise $200,000 to cover travel, accommodations, and training costs. To make this happen in January, we are targeting this fundraising goal to be reached by December 15, 2011.
With your help, this could be one of the most important meetings since the Founders signed the Constitution.
To send checks or money orders mail to CSPOA, 112 Ridgewood Dr., Fredericksburg, TX 78624. Your contributions are not only appreciated but a valuable part of restoring freedom in America!
Real Hope for America
Here are eight county sheriffs from Northern CA and Southern OR speaking on at panel at the Defend Rural America event October 22, 2011 in Yreka. Despite the low media coverage there were about 700 people in attendance from all over California, Oregon and as far away as Wyoming. The sheriffs made it perfectly clear that they are the last line of defense for their citizens and given authority by the 10th Amendment. YOU will be a source of information beyond the lame stream media by forwarding this link! For further information: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4RuWK2Ww-4
We can thank Sheriff Richard Mack of Arizona for starting this movement of sheriffs who take their oath seriously. Get his book called "The County Sheriff, America's Last Hope" or his DVD of the same title at this link: http://www.sheriffmack.com/index.php/books-by-richard-mack
Here is the only answer I see that can actually stop the criminals trying to overthrow our country.
To really understand this you need to watch ALL the videos at the bottom of this email.
THE U.S. SUPREME COURT HAS RULED.
The “supremacy clause” is dealt with in Mack/Printz, in which the U.S. Supreme Court stated once and for all, that the only thing “supreme” is the Constitution itself. Where by the powers, the Sheriff reigns supreme above the president.
“The duly elected sheriff of a county is the highest law enforcement official within a county and has law enforcement powers EXCEEDING that of any other state OR federal official.”
Guess what else? The District Court ruled in favor of the sheriffs. In fact, they stated, Wyoming is a sovereign state and the duly elected sheriff of a county is the highest law enforcement official within a county and has law enforcement powers exceeding that of any other state or federal official.” Go back and re-read this quote.
If you the citizens elect into your county, any county in the USA, a person to become the sheriff of your county, that sheriff has the right to "NOT" allow the TSA, the FBI, the ATF or any other Federal Officials to do things within your county that you the citizens don't like. I think its time that you search out such officials and to start electing them the sheriff and regain your citizens rights.
For instance in any state USA, if the Sheriff doesn't like TSA agents and their BS illegal body searches, then they will have to stay out of the county.
For instance in California, the State of California has legalized the growing of pot, therefore if any Sheriff in California tells the feds to stay out of their county, they will have to stay out of their county.
(Case No. 2:96-cv-099-J (2006)) and announced that all federal officials are forbidden to enter his county without his prior approval ……
For more than two years, all federal agents entering Bighorn County, Wyo., have been required to check in with sheriff Dave Mattis and state their intentions. Sheriffs Put Feds In Their Place.
ONE THAT JUST HAPPENED IN NEW MEXICO!
Obama’s Federal Stooges Beginning To Understand The Power Of Sheriffs: Sheriff Warns Federal Agents They Will Be Arrested If They Interfere!
What I'm trying to get to here, is simply this. America needs to be taken back by the citizens of the USA and here is a LEGAL WAY to take back America in a non confrontational manner. Simply elect a sheriff into your county that will get rid of federal officials that are not protecting the citizens of the USA in a manner that the citizens don't want to be protected.
The sheriff of your county is your friend, he has more rights than the feds have.
The Sheriff Has More Power In His County Than The President Of The United States: U.S. Constitution U.S. Supreme Court ~ Quashes Obama’s Claim To “Supremacy Clause”
If you want to take back America, take it back legally without destroying any of it, this can be done by putting the right person in "EACH SHERIFFS OFFICE" in "EACH COUNTY" in AMERICA. Let the elected Sheriff of each county take it back.
THROW THE FEDS OUT OF YOUR STATE NOW!
Date: Monday, 4 July 2005, 10:38 p.m.
THE COURTS HAVE SPOKEN! “Any legislation including the Patriot Acts which attempts to compel State Officers to execute Federal Law is unconstitutional. Further, any federal investigational liberties can be forbidden by the States’ highest law enforcement officer. Finally, any attempts by a federal agency to coerce compliance to such liberties can be grounds for arrest of any of their agents who do not comply with the directions of that officer.”
Is this kind of thing coming to Lincoln County Montana, or is it already here?
Do local officials and judges conspire to violate your rights and take away your safety?
Is there a "good ole boy" club of officials and government employees in Lincoln County bent on preserving their power regardless of the rule of law, and the safety of the residents of the county, who might be willing to do anything for that end?
How safe do you feel, when people who get their paycheck from government ride rough shod over private property and interfere in your ability to make a living?
How safe do you feel when judges violate your God given rights and slam the gavel without any proof of wrongdoing, and without allowing you to have any witnesses on your behalf in the courtroom?
How safe do you feel when judges deny you the right to call a jury of your peers for a trial?
What you are about to read in this article will show you an example of the "good ole boy" club mentality in action in another state, and this is rampant across the USA in local governments. See the movie "Beneath the Beauty" to get the full story. Find it here: http://www.lincolncountywatch.org/
What started out over a year ago as what seemed to be a simple citizen effort to report government wrong-doing in a Treason case against Barack Obama, filed by Retired Navy Lt. Commander Walter Fitzpatrick III, turned into something unexpected when the Monroe County justice system obstructed justice and turned its evil sights on the Commander.
Since then, Fitzpatrick has been arrested and jailed twice, humiliated by local character assassination, threatened, roughed up and accused of inciting riot, which in Tennessee code can apparently be used against anyone when three or more citizens attempt to address their local public servants in a public place.
Fitzpatrick now stands trial on a host of rigged charges, all at the hands of local corrupt public servants who seem to have a history of such activity, and a growing tendency to become violent when citizens try to make public the level of crime and corruption in that quaint little Tennessee community.
Corruption becomes Deadly
On Saturday July 17, 2010 – Republican Election Commissioner Jim Miller was brutally murdered in a Chicago mob style slaying and set ablaze in the trunk of his car.
Monroe County Sheriff’s Deputy Capt. Kenny Hope was immediately a “person of interest” in the case, but has since been “cleared” by TBI officials.
What does this have to do with the Treason charges filed against Obama in Monroe County? That depends on whether or not Commissioner Miller had seen similar evidence filed with his office concerning election fraud in the 2008 election, and whether or not Miller was about to shine a local light on that or other reports of systemic corruption in Monroe County…
The Violence Continues
As news of local corruption concerning Fitzpatrick spread throughout the community, other local citizens began to come forward with other similar and much more bizarre horror stories with crime family type charges against the local Sheriff Bivins and what is locally referred to as his “henchmen.”
An online Christian News Wire published at story accusing Sheriff Bivins of involvement in the murder “cover-up.”
The following day, locals involved in that report were visited by Bivins “henchmen” as they were leaving an East Tennessee Health Care facility. Chilling events of that day are described in a follow-up Christian News Wire release dated July 30, 2010.
From that report – “Two Christian Citizens against Corruption workers reported attempting to leave a parking lot of an East Tennessee Health Care Facility around 3:00 pm yesterday when a black Ford F-150 pulled up behind them blocking the workers’ vehicle from moving. The car’s driver, Daniel Morgan, identified the driver of the black truck as Travis Jones, a detective of the Monroe County Sheriff’s Department. Wearing no uniform and showing no badge or identification, he angrily ordered the driver and passengers out of the vehicle. Mr. Jones made a holstered gun visible during the ordeal.
Fearing for the safety of his passengers, Mr. Morgan cautioned the passengers in the vehicle from leaving the vehicle as detective Jones was not displaying typical police behavior. According to passengers, Travis Jones was forced to move his truck as an ambulance became impatient with him blocking the road. Mr. Jones left the scene after he observed Mr. Morgan making a cell phone call to state officials, during which he made a police report of the incident to Sergeant Kevin Smith of the Tennessee Highway Patrol.”

With each passing day, more and more local citizens are coming forward with stories of systemic corruption in the Monroe County government that seems to date back years.
Locals report threats from local officials that have caused them great fear in coming forward in the past. But recent events seem to be causing more fear of remaining silent, than fear of retribution.
It All Started with a Treason Case against Obama
Tennessee has some of the strongest citizen Grand Jury and citizen arrest laws in the nation. Yet when Monroe County resident Walter Fitzpatrick attempted to deliver evidence of fraud and treason to his local Grand Jury, he was met with obstruction and corruption that is now spiraling into violent acts of retaliation by the very people sworn to uphold the rule of law in Monroe County.
Clearly, the small town good-ole-boy system is peeved that a local peasant like Fitzpatrick would dare question their authority or challenge their acts of corruption. Yet this is exactly what our nation’s Founding Fathers would have done and would call upon each of us to do, in the preservation of freedom and self-governance.
As an increasing volume of evidence against local officials comes out, those officials seem to be using an increasing level of thuggery in an attempt to silence locals and protect their neat little game.
But small town thugs were in for a rude awakening when Fitzpatrick delivered the news that he would not stand against them alone…
Enter Federal Defense Attorney Steven Pidgeon
Attorney Steven Pidgeon will be handling the Fitzpatrick case in Monroe County and beyond, and he wasted no time filing demands for production of evidence that could very well sink the Monroe County cabal in their own history of corruption and obstruction of justice.
This case has nothing to do with the charges brought against Fitzpatrick in the effort to silence Fitzpatrick on the matter of Obama Treason. The case is much larger than just Monroe County and seems to have brought the kinds of systemic corruption to be found in governments all across the nation into the limelight.
With a national spotlight complete with a federal defense attorney in place, all eyes are on Monroe County public servants and just how far they are willing to go to keep their boot on the neck of the local community.
Monroe County citizens willing to come forward should contact Attorney Steven Pidgeon’s office for further assistance. (425) 605-4774 (tel) - (425) 818-5371 (fax)
"Please do not misunderstand me. By resisting, I do not mean helping to get a Republic elected into a federal position. I do not mean simply sending out some email to their constituents to inform them of their position on the matter. I do not mean, encouraging people to “go out and vote.” I do not mean sending a letter of correspondence from a state house representative to the U.S. President.
By resisting, I mean the state representatives passing laws, the governor entering orders and the courts rendering judgments, preventing the federal government from attempting to tax their people for that federal power and from implementing their procedures upon the people of that state. I mean actually and physically resisting the federal government from occupying the state’s territory to execute those unlawful actions. I mean publically calling to its defense the other states in the union who stand firm upon the same fundamental principles of self-government, federalism, constitutional government and freedom to resist these ghastly attempts to reduce the people to despotism. I mean county sheriff’s arresting federal agents who are attempting to execute and enforce unlawful and unconstitutional procedures and laws upon the citizens of their counties. I mean actively and meaningfully using the sovereign powers retained under the tenth amendment of the U.S. Constitution and under the Laws of Nations."
"If you think that the federal government is going to be stopped by voting into office the next batch of corruptors and encroachers, you are dead wrong. This belief has been proven fruitless at least since the early 1900s. The fact that people in the U.S. still believe that this method is the only effectual and available method of preserving freedom confounds me. "
