In a dependant and enslaved country.


This weekend Citizens of the United States rallied and organized in Bunkerville, Nevada, in order to protect and defend our most precious right, the very foundation of the United States Constitution, the cornerstone of the Enlightenment that guided the minds of John Locke, James Madison and Thomas Jefferson. This is the right of Man to enjoy the fruits of his own labor; to be secure in his person, house and effects against unreasonable search and seizure; nor to have any Governmental agency confiscate his property without just compensation.

When the Government fails to protect this right, it is dysfunctional, and void of purpose; however, when a Government not only fails to protect right, but becomes the Transgressor itself, it ceases to be a Government at all, as it is now a Tyranny, run by ravenous madmen, sending “hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.”

The quote above is among the primary grievances listed in the Declaration of Independence, it describes an era of absurd and inane taxation for purpose of destroying and subjugating the American People (British subjects at the time). The reasons for the aggressive taxation by King George III were two-fold, the first cause being to support and maintain a “Multitude of New Offices” and the second cause to use those New Offices to “send hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance."

Today we find are in the same situation. No man can even begin to list the myriad of Government agencies and bureaucracies, and the hundreds of thousands of copious regulations and innumerable codes created by unelected bureaucrats that are designed to needlessly, and often viciously, impoverish and ruin the livelihood, liberties and happiness of the ordinary Citizen. Verily, these Armies of Pencil Pushers cannot be for our benefit, as our country, nation and economy have been in dire straights for more than a decade. For all the Unhappiness and Misery that we, the Citizens of the United States, have endured, what Happiness and Fortune have we received in return parasitical and malign agencies? These Civil Servants are not Public Servants --- they are Public Masters, subordinate only to the wicked and rapacious men that style themselves as Congressman or Judges or Czars, or Chairmen or President.

For many years the Citizens of the United States have tolerated innumerable insults and degradations to their ways of life, and we turned the other cheek, as “Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.”

However, the Citizens of the United States can no longer suffer the perpetual savagery of the Federal Government, it has become a rogue and foreign regime, unaccountable to the American People, and thus has become spiteful and ferocious, an Engine of Tyranny that rides forth to Demolish and Pillage the Life, Liberty and Property of the People. This is antithetical to the purpose of Government: To secure the blessings of Life, Liberty and Property.

The culmination of this suffering led to Americans rallying to restore the Republic and the Rule of Law, as a well-regulated and disciplined Militia, in order to Preserve the Security of the Free State of Nevada, bearing their arms and munitions against the eavily equipped and armored faceless ghouls of Bureau of Land Management. Since when have executive agencies staffed by unelected phantoms have had the power and authority to used armed coercion to enforce their own regulations that were not even passed by Congress?

No, this abuse was the one among a “long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism” that finally resulted in Citizens of the United States, as Freemen, to exercise their Constitutional right to Bear Arms and Restore the Rule of Law from the Tyrants to which no Freeman should ever yield.

The malicious precedent of Kelo vs New London that allows elected Legislatures to steal and confiscate Property for private interests is heinous enough, but now the multitudinous Bureaucracies have also tried to seize such unlimited, unjust and unforgivable powers for themselves. They wished to impoverish this family into ruin, to tax them Unnecessarily and Improperly, a tax that was not even approved by the United States House of Representatives, and then seized his property without due process.

This is no simple abuse or misuse of power, but a usurpation of the Constitution, the expulsion of the People as the Popular Sovereigns, as enumerated by the Ninth Amendment. In order to secure and defend the Free State of Nevada, the Militia performed their “duty to throw off such Government.”

We have witnessed the incredible courage and tenacity of these brave men and women who stared into the evil eyes the armed and armored Faceless Federal Fiends, as they stormed their barricades under the threat of death, maiming or lifelong agony. These People are Heroes, they have fought and won the most important engagement since the Battle of Athens, Tennessee, during the McMinn County War.

We have seen the Citizens of the United States Restore the Rule of Law and preserve their Popular Sovereignty as Self-Governing Freemen: There is only one logical practice of the Second Amendment, and that is that it shall not be infringed. Any other practice is an absurdity, for it contradicts the very purpose of the Second Amendment in its entirety; it is the ultimate form of popular recourse against tyranny, and thus no potential tyrants may restrict it. The Second Amendment is the Supreme Sovereign; to surrender the Second Amendment, is to surrender the sovereignty of self-government. Molon Labe.

The Updated Declaration of Intolerable Acts

he history of the self styled King of the United States of America is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.

He has refused to enforce the laws duly passed by the People through Congress and instead chosen which he would enforce and which he would not, or which he would change to his own benefit
He has sued the Governors of States when they passed laws of immediate and pressing importance to the People of that State and prevented these govenors from carrying out the People’s business.
He has refused to meet with lawmakers unless he has a guarantee that the Will of the people they represent will be submerged to his own forcing those people to relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has refused to protect our borders and invited all manner of murderers thieves and terrorists into the country and further forced the People of the United States to support the very people who intend to harm them.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people and eat out their substance.
He has combined with other nations and the United Nations to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent by concealing those taxes in reams of unimportant legislation.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign immigrant Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation, and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & Perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has divided the people and excited domestic insurrections amongst us.
He has seized the education of children indoctrinating them instead of educating them.
He has directed his forces to harass our Citizens in the form of their worship.
We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends

The parallels between now and then are very succinct.

As you may know, the Declaration of Independence was written for propaganda purposes, and the liberal that wrote that document based on the liberal doctrines of the period knew that purpose full well.
 
Back at the start this thread cited the New London decision in which an old lady's home was seized and sold, on the cheap, to a company that wanted to turn the land into a new office building with lots of jobs.

It went to The U.S. Supreme court which, indeed, ruled that any government could take anybody's property at any time and hand it over to somebody who promised to pay more in taxes.

And so it came to be.

The old lady lost her lifelong home.

But.......

The new landowner decided not to build the offices and not create the jobs. Because the land wasn't developed and the house was gone the taxable value of the land fell.

The old lady got screwed.
The city got screwed.
The developer will ultimately make big bucks from selling the land to a greater fool.
But most importantly, YOU got screwed because it's "settled law" that there is no longer any such thing as "private property".
 
This precedent could prove problematic if all welfare recipients react this way to getting tossed off the gravy train.

Unfortunately stories of government abuse and over reach are all too common.

But Bundy's tale ain't one of 'em.

welfare cowboy.

Just goes to show how violent the takers can become when you try to pry them off the government teat.

What is private property, and when did the American people ever have property that a government could not take from them?

Spoken like Feudal Lord Sir Robert who wrote the Patriarcha to counteract John Locke's writings.

I guess the self-reliant cowboy is a myth.
 
Welfare Ranching: The Subsidized Destruction of the American West

Whether on public or private lands, the western livestock industry is subsidized in multiple ways. First, there is the abundance of federal and state funding that props up the industry, including below-market grazing fees, emergency feed programs, low-interest federal farm loans, and many other taxpayer-funded programs.

Bundy the taker didn't even want to pay the below-market grazing fees. He wanted freebies!

Well ... I'd like to think there are some left - obviously THIS guy just ain't one of 'em.

Where in the Constitution is the United States Government given the authority to administrate that land?


To exercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the acceptance of Congress, become the seat of the government of the United States, and to exercise like authority over all places purchased by the consent of the legislature of the state in which the same shall be, for the erection of forts, magazines, arsenals, dockyards, and other needful buildings,

Are there forts, dockyards or other needful building on this land his cattle grazes on? If so, how do his cattle damage these buildings?

Only Communist Governments have rights to all property, are we a Communist Government?

Whether or not the federal government should own that land is an entirely different discussion altogether. As of today, they do own it, therefore anyone using that land is obligated to follow their rules. I own two rental properties and I have rules my tenants are expected to abide by. If they don't or they decide to stop paying me then I kick them out, by force, if necessary.
