The militia has not taken over the 187,000 acre Malheur Wildlife Refuge.

I have lived here in the high desert ranching community since Ammon Bundy was learning how to walk. I have known the Sheriff David Ward since his kids were small. They were over at my house all the time. He helped build fence on our place. His oldest son and daughter still live next door.

I have been in contact with people on the ground since before this began. Some locals brought the occupiers food the very first night of the occupation and I hear about a lot of local support. But there is a lot of irresponsible media out there saying false and foolish things, looking for conflict in order to get headlines and sometimes to promote their own agenda.

Ammon Bundy and some of the people with him are there occupying some tiny part of a huge federal wildlife refuge and have gone in some empty public buildings for shelter in order to get media attention to what they see as a serious problem.

They have already said they would be going home soon.

Was the occupation wise? 

Second Letter to Sheriff Ward from Judge Anna Von Reitz

Please see to it that my SECOND Letter in support of your position gets delivered officially and with Witnesses to Sheriff Ward and any and all other federal "county" franchise officials, BLM staff, etc., They need to know this information ASAP for their own sakes as well as everyone else's. 

Dear Sheriff Ward, 

I have already sent you and the other "federal law enforcement agents" one letter. I did not expect to have to send you two. 

There are two kinds of people in this country according to the Definitive Treaty of Peace known as the Treaty of Paris, 1783, Article III and they are-- "the free sovereign and independent people of the United States" and the "inhabitants"-- British Loyalists and subjects of the British Crown who were allowed to stay here after the Revolutionary War. 

These are political statuses and as the Expatriation Act explains, the government is forbidden from interfering with our choice in the matter. 

This was more recently reiterated by the Geneva Protocols of 1949, Laws of War, Volume II, Article 3 forbids tampering with anyone's political status-- and it is a capital offense war crime if you do. 

The Hammonds and the Bundys have all made their political status choice very clear. They are members of the "free sovereign and independent people of the United States." They have self-declared their status and have given you Notice of the same and it is not within the powers of your office to alter this decision or offer to interpret anything about it. 

You and all your misinformed buddies owe the Hammonds and the Bundys "essential governmental services" under Article IV, Section 3, Clause 2. And a HUGE apology. 

Those "services" do not include armed extortion, trespass on their private property, or any false claims or presumption of any ownership interest in them, their land, or their other assets. 

Cattle rustling, as you and your friends need to be reminded, is a capital CRIME in the western states and if you boys get out of line, these ranchers are well within their rights to invoke the Public Law and hang you all from the nearest trees. 

Somewhere in the back of your mind, you know that. 

An Open Letter to Sheriff Ward of Harney County Oregon-

and to All County Sheriffs in America from Judge Anna

Dear Sheriff Ward, 

I am writing to you today to ascertain your office and position with respect to the Hammonds and the developing situation at the Bundy Ranch with respect to "Federal Officers". 

My name is Anna Maria Riezinger, also known as Anna von Reitz because my actual name is German and a mile long.  I am an American Common Law Superior Court Judge in Alaska where operation of the Seventh Amendment Courts started up again in conjunction with the Common Law Grand Juries more than a year ago and I also serve as a Federal Postal District Court Judge for the Western Region. 

As you can clearly see by reading the Seventh Amendment all matters pertaining to living people and their property must be addressed to Common Law Courts.  How then, are the Hammonds being addressed by federal admiralty courts? 

The answer lies in the past.  

During the Civil War the normal court system owed the people in the South shut down and did not immediately reopen. Commanders in the military districts in ten states appointed civilian tribunals to function under "Special Admiralty"----- a euphemism.  For the purposes of these military tribunals, people and property could be addressed in an arbitrary fashion without regard for the Law of the Land.  This was very convenient for the administrators and very unfortunate for the people.
