Declaration of Freedom
August 27th, 1996 
from
- We the People -
to the Government(s) of the
UNITED STATES
(defined in USCS Title 28, ¤ 3002, 15)

and those of the several "State of" sub-corporations of the Union


USCS Title 28, ¤ 3002, 15 : "United States" means:
( A ) a Federal Corporation
( B ) an agency, department, commission, board or other entity of the
United 
States ( C ) an instrumentality of the United States


	When a Government has ceased to protect the lives, liberty and
property of We 
the People , from  whom  its executive, legislative and judicial powers
are 
derived, and for the advancement of whose happiness it was instituted;
and so 
far from being a guarantor for the enjoyment of those inalienable and 
unalienable rights, becomes an instrument in the hands of evil doers for
their 
oppression, We the People  must respond by demand and by force if
necessary.
	When the Federal Republican Constitution of their country, which
they have 
sworn to support, no longer has a substantial existence, and the whole
nature 
of their Government has been forcibly changed with or without their
consent 
from a restricted federative republic, composed of Sovereign states, to a

Consolidated, Central, Military despotism in which every interest is  disregarded, but that of the Government and a Democracy  - both the
eternal 
enemies of civil liberty, the ever-ready minions of power, and the usual 
instruments of tyrants.

	When, long after the spirit of the Constitution has departed,
Moderation is 
at length, so far lost, by those in power that even the resemblance of
freedom 
is removed, and the forms themselves of the Constitution discontinued;
and so 
far from the petitions and remonstrances being regarded the agents who
bear 
them are thrown into jails, and the internal para-military armies sent
forth  
to force a new government upon them at the point of the bayonet or threat
of 
harm, bodily injury, incarceration or even death.. 
	When in consequence of such acts of alfeasonce and abdication, on
the part of 
the government(s), Anarchy prevails, and Civil Society is dissolved into
its 
original elements. In such a crisis, the first law of nature, the right
of 
self preservation, the inherent and inalienable rights for We the People 
to 
appeal to first principles and take our political affairs into our own
hands, 
in Extreme cases  forms it as a right towards themselves and a sacred 
obligation to their posterity to abolish such government(s) and create
another 
in its place, calculated to rescue them from impending dangers and
tyranny, 
and to secure their future, property, liberties, welfare and happiness. 
	Nations and Governments, as well as individuals, are answerable
for their 
actions to the public opinion of mankind.  A statement of a part of our 
grievances is , therefore, submitted to an impartial World, in
justification  of the hazardous and unavoidable step now taken  of
severing our
political 
connection with the United States Government(s) and those people who are
in 
such strong support of it, and assuming an independent attitude among the

nations of the earth. 
	The United States government(s), by its colonization laws,
invited and 
induced the  population of its sovereign states to colonize its
wildernesses 
under the pledged faith of a written Constitution, that they should
continue 
to enjoy that Constitutional liberty and republican form of government to

which they had instituted in the land of their faith, the United states of  America.  In their expectations they have been cruelly disappointed in
as
much  as the United States has acquiesced in the late changes made in the
government  by President's, Legislatures and Judiciary of the United
States since
1933 who  having overturned the Constitution for Democracy, the country
now offers
us  the cruel alternative to either abandon our homes (personal
sovereignty, 
property, rights and immunities) acquired by so many privations, or
submit to  the most intolerable of all tyranny, the combined tyranny of
the Sword, 
Communist Socialism and one World Government. 
 	It has sacrificed our welfare to the United States
Government(s), by which  our interests have been continually depressed
through a jealous and
partial 
course of legislations, carried on at a far distant seat of government,
by a 
hostile and uneducated Majority, in an attempt to subdue the Truth from
the 
People and to enslave the population and generations thereafter as
commercial 
chattel, for the Government's own greedy purposes and power of control over.
	And this too, notwithstanding we have petitioned in the humblest
of terms,  for the reestablishment of a Republican form of Government,
and have, in 
accordance with the provisions of the National and state Constitutions, 
presented to the General Congress, a reaffirmation of our republican 
Constitution which was, without just cause summarily rejected.
	It has incarcerated in dungeons, jails and prisons, for a long
time, many of 
our Citizens, for no other cause but a jealous endeavor to force our 
acceptance of Democracy, a widely known form of Communist Socialism and mob 
rule, and the establishment of a unlawful Statutory Law and
Government(s).
	It has failed and refused to secure on a firm basis, our right of
trial by 
jury of our peers; that palladium of Civil liberty, and only safe
guarantor  for the life, liberty, and property of the Citizens of the
several
states. 
	It has failed to establish a truly free system of Education,
although  possessed by boundless resources and, although it is an
opinion, in
political  science, that unless a people are Educated and Enlightened in
Truth and 
History , it is idle to expect the Continuance of Civil Liberty, or the 
Capacity for Self Government.

	It has suffered the Para-Military Commandants stationed among us
to exercise 
arbitrary acts of oppression and tyranny; thus trampling upon the most
sacred 
rights of the Citizenry and rendering the Para-Military Superior to the
Civil 
Power.

	It has dissolved by unlawful legislation and by force of private 
para-military armies, the powers of We the People  and obliged our 
representatives to flee for their lives from the Seat of Government, thus

depriving  us of the fundamental political rights of the representation. 
	It has demanded the surrender of a number of our Citizens (human
beings and 
personal property) and ordered para-military detachments (FBI, BATF, MJTF
and 
UN Troops and National Police) to seize (the people and their property)
and 
carry them into the clutches of Democracy (the so called Courts of
Federal 
Municipal Jurisdiction under the color of Martial and Admiralty Law) for 
trial, in Contempt of the Civil authorities, and in defiance of the Laws
and  of the National Constitution.
	It has made unwarranted attacks upon our Commerce by
commissioning foreign  desperados (Federal Reserve Bank and Board,
Internal Revenue Service and
the 
World Bank) and authorizing them to seize our vessels (Gold and Silver)
and 
convey that property of our Citizens to far distant ports for
Confiscation.
	It denies us the right of Worshiping the Almighty according to
the dictates  of our own conscience even in our workplace and almost info
our homes; by
the  support of a national removal of religion or worship, calculated to
promote 
the temporal interest of its human disfunctionaries and idolatries,
rather 
than the glory of the true and living God.
	It has demanded the Citizens and citizenry to stupidly volunteer
or  involuntarily deliver up their personal arms; which are essential to
our 
defense, our rightful property of person, and formidable only to
tyrannical 
Governments. 
	It has invaded our country by Land, Air and Sea, with intent to
lay waste our 
God given Rights and Immunities, our property, liberties and states, and
to 
drive us from our homes; and has now a large para-military and private
army  (FBI, BATF, MJTF, UN Troops under the guise of Peacekeeping Forces
and 
National Police) advancing to carry on against us a war of extermination.

	It has through its emissaries incited their merciless savage, with their 
public policies , mandates and weapons to massacre the inhabitants of our

defended states. 
	It has been, during the whole time of our connection with it, the

contemptible sport and victim of successive para-military, executive, 
legislative and judicial convolutions, and hath continually exhibited
every 
characteristic of a weak, corrupt, and tyrannical Government. 
	These and other grievances, were made by We the People   , until
they reached 
that point at which forbearance ceased to be an virtue.  We then took up
arms  in our defense of the state and National Constitution(s).  We
appealed to
our 
governments, legislatures and our brethren for assistance.. Our appeal
has 
been made in vain. Though months have elapsed, no sympathetic response
has yet 
been heard from the governments of the United States. We are therefore
forced  to the only conclusion that the United States has undeniably
forced the
people  to have acquiesced in the instruction of the their liberty and
the
institution  therefore of a Communistic - Socialist Government - that
they are unfit
to be  free and incapable of Self Government. The necessity of
self-preservation
,  therefore, now decrees over internal political separation.
	By literal contempt, you have maintained that you need to control
of the  People using Commerce, Taxation, and dishonorable venue of Law in
Courts
at  Law and by other means, you have deprived us all and yourselves of 
our 
Freedoms. You have destroyed our happiness, our ability to feed and raise
our 
families, deprived us of our  RIGHTS to ABSOLUTE OWNERSHIP of our
properties 
with unlawful Statutory Public Policy and Mandates, serving the  "special

interests and lobbiers" who come to your door. You have left our homeland

defenseless against invasion  by placing our Military on Humanitarian and
NATO 
Peacekeeping missions, rather than protecting our borders from  further
acts  of rape, pillaging and plunder by illegal immigrants and aliens. 
	There are no interests in the Public eye or purview that demand
you to  perform these actions other than your incompetent suggestions and
decisions  for misguided domestic and foreign policy and a will to
demoralize,  
destabilize and obtain absolute control those who are not the wealthy and

incapable of standing up for America against you. There is no real 
representation in American Government of all of the People.  You have 
purposely  split the People into "CLASSES" for your agenda of control and

greed. The time has come for you to stop. You are  purposely causing
CHAOS in 
America and the will of the People, not the Government or the idol rich,
will 
prevail.   You continue to remove GOD as the mainstay of our influence as
a  free people. We the People  ,  therefore, assert  our RIGHT,
IMMUNITIES
and 
AUTHORITY over YOU, the Government and demand that you cease and desist
from  further acts of TREASON.  
	In the event that you ignore our plea, ignore and become
unresponsive to  resolving the matters now placed before you in our
Petition for Redress
of  Grievences, We the People ,   believing in our one true living GOD
and 
exercising HIS WILL and our AUTHORITY over you, intend to take our states
and 
country back, by force if necessary, without any further warning from us.
 
This is where We the People  draw the line. Your blood will not be on our

hands, according to the LAW of God Almighty. 
	We the People ,  will no longer sit on the sidelines while you wreck America 
and her several states of the Union.  You have 90 days from the date of
this  declaration, in which to resolve the Grievences and restore the
"Proper" 
Constitutional Government in the seat of power in Washington D.C.. 
Refusal to 
address the Grievences outlined will be considered an Act or Declaration
of 
War upon the American People.

	We the People ,  therefore, the delegates with sovereign powers,
We the 
People  of the several states, in solemn convention assembled, appealing
to a 
Candid World for necessities of our Condition, do hereby resolve and
declare  that our political connection with the United States Government(s) and 
Democracy (Communistic Socialism) has forever ended;  and that We the
People  
of the several states do now constitute our GOD given Rights and
Immunities 
and our independent sovereign states to be free Sovereign and Independent
Republics, and are fully vested with all the Rights and Immunities
endowed by  our Creator, which properly belong  to sovereign people; and
Conscious of
the  repercussions of our intentions, We the People  fearlessly and
Confidently 
Commit the issue to the decision from the Supreme Being of the destinies
of 
Nations. 
Signed,
We the People,  The Sovereign Citizens of the several states, whom are
FREE of the
United  States and its colussional "State of" governments in the states
of the
Union,  whom are not members of the State of the Forum, and not the
citizens , 
residents or 14th Amendment citizens of the United States previously defined 
by the US Government as stated on page 1, whom you claim are your chattel
and  
subjects under Commercial. Admiralty and Martial Law, in a DEMOCRACY
(defined 
by the 1928 Army Training Manual as a Communist Socialist Government) and
by  PUBLIC POLICY and MANDATE that is NOT LAW !!!

Democracy: A government of the masses, authority derived through mass
meeting 
or any other form of direct expression; results in mobocracy; attitude
toward  poverty is communistic negating property rights; attitude toward
law is
that  the will of the majority shall regulate whether it be based upon
deliberation
		or             governed by passion, prejudice, and impulse, without restraint
		or
           regard to consequences; its result is dem-o-gogism, license, 
agitation, discontent and anarchy. 
Republic:Authority is derived through the election by the people of
public  
officials best suited to represent them. Attitude toward property is
respect 
for laws and individuals rights and a sensible economic procedure.
Attitude 
toward law is the administration of justice in accord with fixed
principles 
that establish           evidence with a strict regard for consequences.
A 
greater number of citizens and the extent of territory may be brought
within  its compass, it avoids the dangerous extremes of either tyranny
or
mobocracy.  Results in statesmanship, liberty, reason, justice
