CIVIL DEATH

DYING TO BE FREE

"The state must declare the child to be the most precious treasure of the people."

Adolf Hitler

"As long as government is perceived as working for the benefit of children, the people happily will endure almost any curtailment of liberty."

Rabbi Daniel Lapin

Today, every American who calls him/herself a citizen is living money for the federal government. You have been enslaved under the 14^th Amendment of the United States Constitution, during the Reconstruction era immediately following the Great Northern War of Aggression, also known as the Civil WarY

A new form of law emerged after the Civil War. It was called Acolorable@ and was totally outside of the Constitution.  Color of law defined:

"Color of law" is a legal term that suggests that the person or action described has been cloaked in the authority of the law.

To act "under color of state law" means to act beyond the bounds of lawful authority, but in such a manner that the unlawful acts were done while the official was purporting or pretending to act in the performance of his official duties. In other words, the unlawful acts must consist of an abuse or misuse of power which is possessed by the official only  because he is an official.

"Misuse of power, possessed by virtue of state law and made possible only because the wrongdoer is clothed with the authority of state law, is action taken `under color of' state law." United States v. Classic, 313 U.S. 299, 326 (1941)

"Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress . . ." 42 U.S.C. S 1983 (1988)

The federal government began creating Aagencies@ under color of law which had no constitutional authority to function the government in the administration of the new rules and regulations for the tracking and controlling of the former slaves.

This author believes that once the entire people of the nation were naturalized into 14^th Amendment citizenship, originally passed for former slaves, under the eyes of the federal government we were all colored.  Ownership of slaves was passed from private owners to the federal government. A new created form of citizenship, not authorized by the organic Constitution for the united States, required a new form of law under which to function these new Aagencies.@

An individual has only civil rights under color of law, and those are rights government chooses to give you. Government can withdraw those civil rights at any given time. The natural rights given to you by God are gone. They are no longer recognized by present day government.

Under most religious law, the children belong to the parents. It is a moral obligation on the part of the parents to care for and educate their children in their existing social values and morals. Under color of law government believes your children belong to them. This belief comes from the Doctrine of Parens Patriae....Government as Parent. Just as it became the responsibility of the federal government to care for the freed slaves through benefits and welfare programs.

In 1921, the federal Sheppard-Towner Maternity Act was passed creating birth "registration" or what we now know as the "birth certificate."  It was known as the "Maternity Act" and was sold to the American people as a law that would reduce maternal and infant mortality, protect the health of mothers and infants, and for other purposes. One of those other purposes provided for the establishment of a federal bureau designed to cooperate with state agencies in the overseeing of its operations and expenditures. This can now be seen as the first attempt of "government by appointment," or cooperation of state governments to aid the federal government in usurping the legislative process of the several states as exists today through the federal grant in aid to the states programs.

Prior to 1921 the records of births and names of children were entered into family bibles, as were the records of marriages and deaths. These records were readily accepted by both the family and the law as "official" records.  Since 1921 the American people have been registering the births and names of their children with the government of the state in which they are born, even though there is no federal law requiring it.  The state claims an interest in every child within its jurisdiction, telling the parents that registering their child's birth through the birth certificate serves as proof that he/she was born in the united States, thereby making him/her a united states citizen. 

In pre civil war times, J.H. Hammond said that it was the duty of masters "to clothe, feed, nurse, support through childhood and pension in old age, a race of slaves."  Chancellor Harper in ACotton is King and Pro-Slavery Arguments; Pritchard, Abbot, & Loomis, Augusta, Ga., 1860, pg. 647@ stated that "Security is one of the compensations of their humble position." Interestingly, the Cherokee term for slavery was Asti nasha >i, and it referred to any creature that required care, animal or human. Even the Indians knew that slavery was a trade-off, and that in exchange for exploiting the labor of a slave, they had a corresponding duty to care for the slave. The responsibilities of masters are best summed up by E.N. Elliott, who was the editor of Cotton is King and president of  Planters' College, Mississippi  back then.

"Slavery is the duty and obligation of the slave to labor for the mutual benefit of both master and slave, under a warrant of the slave to protection, and a comfortable subsistence, under all circumstances. The person of the slave is not property, no matter what the fictions of the law may say; but the right to his labor is property, and may be transferred like any other property, or as the right to the services of a minor or an apprentice may be transferred. Nor is the labor of the slave solely for the benefit of the master, but for the benefit of all concerned; for himself, to repay the advances made for his support in childhood, for present subsistence, and for guardianship and protection, and to accumulate a fund for sickness, disability, and old age. The master, as the head of the system, has a right to the obedience and labor of the slave, but the slave also has his mutual rights in the master; the right of protection, the right of counsel and guidance, the right of subsistence, the right of care and attention in sickness and old age. He also has a right in his master as the sole arbiter in all his wrongs and difficulties, and as a merciful judge and dispenser of law to award the penalty of his misdeeds. Such is American slavery, or as it has been referred to, >Warranteeism.'

You can now understand that the masters of pre civil war times had a social security system for their slaves. The labor of millions of slaves produced enormous sums of money which the slaveholders redistributed to provide social security to their slaves. This is why George Fitzhugh took the position that domestic slavery was the very best form of socialism because nothing was wasted and the master-slave relationship could not be denied by using legal fictions. This is why he said that masters "support the sick, infant, and aged slaves from the labor of the strong and healthy." ( From ACannibals All! - Or Slaves Without Masters, by George Fitzhugh; Harvard Univ. Press, 1960, pg. 27) (originally published in 1857)

"It may be with truth affirmed, that since the establishment of the several communities now constituting the States of this Confederacy, there has never been submitted to any tribunal within its limits questions surpassing in importance those now claiming the consideration of this court." Dred Scott v. Sanford 19 How. 393, 469 The institution of slavery has existed in different forms throughout the history of mankind. Slavery has always been associated with large sums of money, because when political power is able to obtain the command of the labor of the masses, thereby subjecting all who labor in the realm to the fee, the political authority will reap large sums of money; and the larger the population of workers, the greater the sums of money collected. This is why Abraham Lincoln described slavery as "a thick coating," because of the enormous sums of money surrounding the institution. The justices in the supreme court case of Dred Scott v. Sanford (19How. 393) knew this also. Chief Justice Taney used the phrase "government of slaves" in his majority opinion in the case. Justice Campell, in his concurring opinion, stated the following concerning slavery in England in medieval times:

"Historical research ascertains that at the date of the [Norman] Conquest the rural population of England was generally in a servile condition, and under various names, denoting slight variances in condition, they were sold with the land like cattle, and were part of its living money."

Today, every American who calls him/herself U.S citizen, is living money for the federal government. You have been enslaved under the 14^th Amendment of the United States Constitution, done during the Reconstruction era immediately following the Great Northern War of Aggression, also known as the Civil WarY

The 13^th Amendment was designed to free the slaves, however no state wanted the former slaves as citizens of their state. They did not want the responsibility of educating them or caring for them.  To remedy this, the federal government passed the 14^th Amendment claiming to give the freed slaves citizenship in the federal government. It is this authors belief that the slaves were never freed, that ownership just transferred from private owners to the federal government. The 14^th Amendment also enslaved all the citizens of the several states, regardless of their color. The 14^th Amendment granted ACivil Rights@ thereby destroying our natural rights, given to man by  his Creator.  Today all oppressive legislation is passed under the authority of the 14^th Amendment. In a single stroke of the signing of the 14^th Amendment into law, the Great Republic of America became civilly dead. In the years following, through a slow and steady process, the American also became civilly dead, we just didn’t=t know itYY

On March 9, 1933 President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, under the WAR POWERS TITLE 12 USC. Section 95 (a) and 95 (b) declared the citizens of the United States to be enemies of the government for hoarding gold. This has never been repealed.

20 years after enactment of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 and the introduction of the income tax, Congress enacted HJR-192 to suspend the gold standard and to abrogate the gold clause. This resolution declared that any obligation requiring "payment in gold or a particular kind of coin or currency, or in an amount in money policy; and ... Every obligation heretofore or hereafter incurred, shall be discharged upon payment, dollar for dollar, in any coin or currency which at the time of payment is legal tender for public and private debts."  In other words, "Every Obligation ... Shall be discharged."  The American people had their property pledged as surety for the announced debt and they and their posterity were placed in the position of debtor into perputity.

In the case of Stanek v. White, 172 Minn. 390, 215 H.W. 784, the court explained the legal distinction between the words "payment" and "discharge": "There is a distinction between a ‘debt discharged’ and a ‘debt paid.’  When discharged the debt still exists though divested of its character as a legal obligation during the operation of the discharge. Something of the original vitality of the debt continues to exist, which may be transferred, even though the transferee takes it subject to its disability incident to the discharge. The fact that it carries something which may be a consideration for a new promise to pay, so as to make an otherwise worthless promise a legal obligation, makes it the subject of transfer by assignment."

Thus, it is clear that, as a result of HJR 192 and from that day forward (June 5, 1933), no one has been able to pay a debt. The only thing they can do is tender in transfer of debts, and the debt is perpetual. The suspension of the gold standard, and prohibition against paying debts, removed the substance for our Common Law to operate on, and created a void, as far as the law is concerned. This substance was replaced with a "Public National Credit" system where debt is money (The Federal Reserve calls it "monetized debt")

HJR-192 prohibits payment of debt and substitutes, in its place, a discharge of an obligation -- thereby not only subverting, but totally bypassing the "absolute prohibition" so carefully engineered into the Constitution. There is, now, nothing for this Article to operate on, just as there is nothing for Common Law to operate on. Perpetual debt, bills, notes, cheques and credits fall within a totally different jurisdiction than contemplated by Article I, Section 10, Clause 1 of the Constitution, and that jurisdiction belongs exclusively to the Law of Admiralty and Maritime.

On June 26, 1935 , Congress passed The Federal Register Act. This act enabled the president to create unlimited bureaucracies and agencies and empower them with the force of law. All that was needed to implement bureaucratic regulations into law was to enter or publish those regulations in the Federal Register, by‑passing all constitutional oversight.  The constitutional limitations on government were gone.

In 1946, PUBLIC LAW 79‑404 entitled  "Administrative Procedures Act of 1946" was passed. This act set up the procedure yielding lawmaking authority to agencies in the executive sector of government (federal bureaucracies), and provided that administrative rules and regulations be printed in the Federal Register giving these regulations the force of law. So now the American people had been declared enemies of the government, had lost their Constitutional constraints on government, their constitutional money, the right to own property, they lost their law, and  they placed into debt into perpetuity.

TITLE 3 USC Section 301, October 31, 1951: General authorization to delegate functions; publication of delegations. This law authorized the President of the United States to designate and  empower the head of any department or agency in the executive branch, or any official thereof who is required to be appointed by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to perform without approval, ratification, or other action by the President (1) any function which is vested in the President by law, or (2) any function which such officer is required or authorized by law to  perform only with or subject to the approval, ratification, or other action of the President:  Provided, That nothing contained in the act relieved the President of his responsibility in office  for the acts of any such head or other official designated by him  to perform such functions.  Such designation and authorization would be in writing, and published in the Federal Register. This is the mechanism allowing the creation of agencies, functioning under re-delegation of authority, thereby avoiding constitutional prohibitions and giving us government by decree by unelected bureaucrats. 

There is very little flavor of the original Republic given to us by our Founding Fathers that is alive and well today. Instead, today we are functioning in an Internationl Commercial Jurisdiction with our main purpose being financial slaves to those holding our debt, a cabal of international bankers. Under Roman Law our Title has been taken from us and we are considered to be slaves.  I will present the researched facts. You decide for yourself if it is truth.

Slavery has been a condition of the human experience since the times of the Old Testament. Since it has become politically incorrect to openly refer to people held in bondage as slaves, slavery has been forced underground. It has taken hundreds of years to perfect the language and legal mechanisms that enslave people while simultaneously fooling them into believing they are free.

Most people born within the confines of this country or its territories take their citizenship for granted; American citizenship and U.S. citizenship are interchangeable terms that have no mutually exclusive conditions that make one type any more or less desirable than the other.

Therein lies perhaps the most fundamental deceptions as the terms are as different as freedom and slavery. Understanding the types of citizenship and the rights and responsibilities that correspond with them is of paramount importance. Failure to grasp the significance of your status as a citizen allows those that do to prosecute presumptions about you for the purpose of exploitation. This point is so important that the manipulators of legal language have thoroughly mined the field over centuries in an attempt to keep us confused about our real rights and responsibilities as dictated by our citizenship status. So, do not skip over this article and do not gloss over words you don't understand. Get your law dictionary out and give this material the attention it deserves because citizenship status has everything to do with you and how the people who presume authority over your life must act toward you.

By the end of this article you will see how this unfortunate set of circumstances allows the federal government and its agents to presume that we own no property and are consequently so impoverished that it can justify government ownership of our children.

Title 18, Section 7(3) of the U.S. Code states that all land is pretended to be acquired by the United States (the corporation), it is presumed to be in the federal zone and under special maritime jurisdiction.

Look at the words messuage, curtilage, house, household, Patria Potestas, family, and Paterfamilias as described in the Roman Law.

Messuage is the land around the house. Federally owned property exists in one place with a messuage around it. Twenty miles away there is another federal enclave with a messuage around it. There is no stated boundaries on the messuage, however there are private and public dwellings between the two federal enclaves. The feds claim all the land between the federal enclaves as being owned by the federal government. (the  federal messuage)

All the land between federal enclaves, having no stated boundaries, become the federal messuage. Now connect the dots between federal enclaves all across America and you can figure out how the feds claim to own all the land.  I know it's a stretch, but is it any more of a stretch than the statement by the feds that they own your children? The supreme court just ruled that if there is a compelled state interest in your land you don't own it and the state can take it....Just watch how the feds will define taking your private property when the international bankers decide to forclose. The government gave it to them in your name as collateral or surety. The Congress says they have authority to do so. Will any court in the land rule in favor of the people?  I don't think so.......

FAMILYY. No political society worthy of the name can deal with Clans as the subjects of rights; it can deal only with Families or Individuals. In historical times the only test of unity was the common name borne by the Gentiles, the chief signs of corporate action were their guardianship of the insane and their reversionary right of guardianship over women and children, powers which the Gentiles must have exercised by delegating their authority to a personal representative. The further right which they possessed in later times, of succeeding to intestate inheritances in the last resort, was perhaps a right possessed by individual members of the corporation rather than by the corporation itself. But a corporate activity far greater than this has been suspected for earlier times. The fact that the primitive Roman State was in many ways conditioned by its clan organization seems to be certain. As the State grew stronger, it substituted the Family for the Clan. Between the two there is only a difference of degree. The Family (Familia) is the aggregate of the members of a household under a common head, the Paterfamilias; whereas the Gens is the aggregate of all individuals who bear a common name and who, therefore, if their ancestry could be traced in the male line through all its stages, would be found to be the descendants of some ultimate common ancestor. But the Familia is a far smaller, and therefore a far less powerful, unit than the Gens. It cannot so effectively dominate the State or impede its activities . Again, the heads of families are many in number; the heads of the Gentes (who must have existed at the time when the Gens was the important unit) were necessarily few. The State which deals with families deals with a multitude of individuals, not with an oligarchy representing the interests of a number of corporations. The conception of individual rights, in their modern sense, was, it is true, never fully recognized in Roman Private Law. It was impeded by the Patria Potestas the life-long power of the father over the son.  But much was ultimately done to lessen the rigor of this patriarchal rule; and the principles of Roman Law were finally extended to races which knew nothing of the Patria Potestas. This law ultimately gave the most perfect expression hitherto witnessed by the world of rights which were both universal and individual. The existence of the Empire gave Rome the power, possessed in as high a degree by no other State, of dealing with the individual on universal lines, because he was not hampered by the barriers between man and man thrown up by separate national institutions.

Partus sequitur ventrem - the offspring follows the condition of the mother. Bouvier's Law Dict., 1934 ed., pg. 784

There can be no way of knowing when the federal government began to presume that when a Mother is asked to fill out a birth certificate (Certificate of Live Birth) for her new born child, the presumption is that the child has been born out of wedlock.

If you are presumed born out of wedlock, with your mother considered to be a slave, you are presumed born out of the realm, meaning you are presumed not a member of the people of the land by right of blood. In other words, the birth certificate is presumed to work corruption of your blood, presumably making you an utlagatus (outlaw) and civiliter mortuus (civilly dead) and nullius filius (son of nobody, or a bastard).

Patria Potestas is the absolute power of life and death over all members of the household/family. Under Ancient Roman law, the Father as Patria Potestas held the right to kill his own children or sell them into bondage.

Today, the federal government acting as the common head, Paterfamilias, has become Patria Potestas, the life long power of the father over the son. Through United States citizenship the federal government has taken us out of our family (familia), and denied us the right to be people of the land by right of blood.. They have changed our personality (person) from Freeborn (pre 14^th Amendment Citizen), to Freedman (after 14^th Amendment citizen) into a new personality (strawman, new entity, a member of the Federal family, living in the Federal home, a member of the Federal  household, living on the federal messuage, bringing you into the Federal realm, (federal zone). You, as a united states citizen are now controlled through parens patraie or Patria Potestas, the federal father.

It is believed this process is done through the old common law form called  AAttainder By Defaul@ which presumes that, if you are not by blood one of the people of the land, you are presumed to have no access to the law (of the people) of  the land. Consequently, you are presumed to be under the Roman Imperial Law of Patria Potestas (English Law of Parens Patriae) which places you under the patria potestas of the paterfamilias, all of which presumably turns you into a proletarius who is one so poor that he cannot serve the State with money so the state claims ownership of his children.

The certificate of live birth is taken from the Mother and the personality of the freeborn child is killed and is now considered  to be civilly dead. Government then creates a new birth certificate for the newly created personality, the name written in all capital letters. This is the birth certificate of the strawman, the new personality or the artificial entity controlled by government. 

When the live born child is killed. he dies intestate, thereby having his assets pass to the state for distribution. The new artificial entity, the strawman has taken it=s place. When you go into Family court you are really entering a probate court. The court through it=s presumed authority over the civilly dead living man, can award your property to whoever it chooses.  You must kill the  artificial entity known as the strawman and give life back to the freeborn, you, the living man/woman  thereby reclaiming your original personality as freeborn, with your right of claim to be of the  people of the land by right of blood..

Kill The Artificial Strawman…….Resurrect the Living Man

This author does not believe the living, breathing freeborn original personality with the right of blood to be one of the people of the land falls under the jurisdiction of the present government in any court of the land for a crime other than one deemed to be a capital offense. There can be no claim for a license to perform any activity of daily life. There can be no responsibility to be the surety for the national debt, thereby losing the right to challenge the constitutionality of the statutes for accepting  any benefit of government, whatever it may be. You will no longer be held to government contracts, implied or concealed.  Requirements for registration of personal property in the name of the Strawman for all taxing purposes including income tax, etc will become moot. You can no longer be considered as owned by government because you break the nexus  between you, the living breathing man and the artificial entity know as the strawman, who is owned by government…………
