THE DECLARATION OF NON-DEPENDENCE OF THIS UNITED STATE OF AMERICA
In the Statehouse, 21.xii.MMXII Christian Era, Gregorian Calendar
The unilateral Declaration of this United State of America,
When in the Course of governmental affairs, it is commonplace for Our
vassal to exceed the scope of its Delegated Powers derived from the
Ratification of the federal Constitution, to profess a national
supremacist Attitude as had been expressed, yet never ratified, in
article 2 of Its Draft, and to thereby assume a separate and superior
Station to which Its Terms do not entitle it, notwithstanding loose
construction of ambiguities, a healthy Contempt for said Attitude of
Our vassal, and a decent Respect to Opinion in this State and others,
require Us to declare the Causes which impel Us to withdraw Our Consent
to said Constitution, except for Article I, Sections 1.i, 2.i & 3.i,
and Article IV.4, while maintaining Our Consent to the Delegation of
Powers in the former System of federal Government under the Articles of
Confederation & perpetual Union as well as to the Restriction of its
Powers under the Bill of Rights from the 3rd to the 12th article, each
having been ratified with unanimity as required by said Articles.
We hold these Truths to be self-evident: that creations depend on their
Creators for their existence and so dare not act otherwise; that as a
result of having been created in the Creators' image, all People among
Their respective sex are created equal, that Those of each sex are
endowed with certain unabridgeable Rights as an inherent part of their
Creation, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of
anything tangible or intangible that may bring Happiness without
Infringement on such Rights of Others; That for Enforcement of Laws
against such Infringement, Government is created by the People as Their
vassal, deriving its delegated Powers from the Consent of its Creators,
and thus subservient to Them; That whenever any Form of Government
becomes negligent, or destructive, of these ends, it is the Right of the
People to alter it, or abolish it and institute a new Form, laying its
foundation on such Principles, and organising its Powers, as to Them
shall seem most likely to effect Their Safety and Happiness. Prudence,
indeed, will dictate that a Form long established should not be
abolished for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience
has shown, that the People are more disposed to riot or rebel, when
evils are insufferable, than to right Themselves by abolishing the Form
to which They are accustomed. After a long train of Abuses and
Usurpations, pursuing invariably a design to reduce Them to relative
Servitude, it is Their Right, it is Their Duty to throw off such Form,
and terminate the bureaucracy seeking to enslave Them. Such has been the
patient sufferance of this State; yet it is practical necessity which
constrains Us to revert merely to the previous System of Government,
that once had served the founding States well and now is emulated in
the Swiss Presidency as the rule while only the exception in the House
of Representatives when choosing a President under the 12th Amendment.
The history of the bureaucracy of the more perfect Union is one of
repeated Injuries and Usurpations, all meant to bring about national,
multinational or international Supremacy over this State. To prove this,
let Facts be summarised for Our Constituents and attentive Legislators
among the several States--
it has issued Executive Orders, the most unwholesome or unnecessary for
the Public Good.
it has co-erced Our Governors not to sign or enforce Laws of immediate
and pressing Importance, unless Control should be co-ordinated by or
centralised in national or international Agencies, or has rewarded Them
for neglecting to attend to traditional Principles of Law when utterly
yielding to such Regulation.
it has refused to enforce Laws for the general Welfare and common
Defense of the People, unless They would relinquish Their Rights under
Natural Law or the Bill of Rights, which are inestimable to Them, and a
hindrance to national, multinational or international Supremacists.
it has endeavored to aid or abet illegal Immigration to our Country: by
impeding enforcement of Our Laws when illegal Immigrants commit Crimes;
by refusing to enforce Laws preventing their Migrations hither, or by
raising conditions of new Appropriations for a National Identification
Scheme to track Citizens instead.
it has refused, after such violations of the Borders, to properly equip
or reinforce the Border Patrol; such that the Right of Self-Defense,
incapable of Annihilation, must default to the People individually to
exercise It, if County Militias are unable to defend Them; the State
remaining in the meantime exposed to all the dangers of Invasion from
without, or Terrorism, Drug Trafficking and Epidemics within.
it has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing its Assent
to let a Grand Jury be convened to decide whether Osama ben Laden ought
to be indicted for federal Crimes that it alleged were committed by him
on the 11th of September 2001 CE, by commuting the Sentences of those
who reveal CIA Agents' identities, by arresting Israeli or Cuban Agents
for pursuing terrorists on our Soil, and by eliminating Evidence at
Crime Scenes.
it has intimidated, panicked or whitemailed Congress not to oppose
Bailouts of its private-sector Associates, nor Invasions either on Our
Rights or on foreign Soil in undeclared Wars entered into under false
Pretenses; and not to impeach the President for lying to them when so
going to War, lest related Deaths be construed as Murders.
it has made Officials dependent on the Will of Multinationals, for the
Tenure of their Offices, for their Appointment, and for their deferred
Compensation.
it has erected a multitude of new Offices, and sent hither swarms of
Officers to harass Our People, invade Their Privacy, or confiscate Their
Property under Color of Law.
it has kept amongst Us foreign Soldiers without Our Consent.
it has affected to render the Vice-President independent of and superior
to the President, and at times the de facto Commander-in-Chief; and its
unelected Agents superior to Our elected Sheriffs.
it has combined with multinational and international Supremacists to
subject Us to Regulation by Treaties foreign to the federal
Constitution, or unratified by the Senate, or unimplemented as Law;
while giving its Assent to other Acts of pretended or mock Legislation:
for preventing extraction of Oil on-shore and off in Arctic and other
coastal Waters, pursuant to various Treaties such as the Law of the Sea,
whether ratified or not:
for hidden subsidies of Child Labor or environmental Destruction in
related imported Products by removing countervailing Tariffs; of Imports
from all parts of the world by removing Fees for Inspections at Ports of
Entry, or via Tax Exemptions and Credits for jet-fuels or airfreight and
any resulting damage to the ozone layer of Our Airspace; and of
financial Institutions by exempting financial, especially derivative,
transactions from Excise Tax, by allowing Them to short shares of a
stock without having to borrow them or to pay a fee to lender or issuer,
and by exempting Them from tax upon Expatriation of Their subsidised
profits, capital and wealth, while subjecting Them to tax upon
Repatriation:
for collecting Imposts, Duties and Excises with geographic
non-uniformity, or from Employees, such that Income Tax is no longer
implemented on the Mainland of the United States as in Puerto Rico where
It is still pursuant to the 16th Amendment permitting Its derivation
from any Source, rather than any Recipient, of the taxable item, as for
Taxes on Tobacco, that were likewise non-uniform under Smoot-Hawley
Legislation; and such that recent federal 1040s for Puerto Rico are
identical only to those prior to WWII for the Mainland, neither having
derived Income Tax from Employees who are not self-employed:
for inducting large bodies of Foreigners as Soldiers or Mercenaries,
many having committed Felonies:
for protecting them from Punishment for any Murders which they should
commit here or abroad:
for transporting Our Residents or Visitors overseas to be tortured or
tried for pretended Offences:
for depriving Us of the benefits of a free and independent Press in the
mainstream, and in many cases, of Trial by Petit Jury, Indictment by
Grand Jury, or Examination of Facts by Folk-right Jury presided over by
the Sheriff:
for abolishing Sheriffs as the supreme Law Enforcement Officers within
Our State by establishing over them federal Marshals whose Territories
have been enlarged from Indian and military Reservations to the entire
State for the purpose of federal Regulation, as if It were also a
federal Dependency, such as Puerto Rico:
for suspending the Principles of Separation of Powers when declaring the
President invested with legislative and judicial Powers, and the
President of the Senate with executive Power; or of Church and State,
when usurping the exclusive Power of this State to grant corporate
status, such that it is imposed upon those Churches of Our People who
want to remain unincorporated associations:
for besieging and seizing Churches daring to exercise Their Rights to
outsource employment and employment Taxes, or to avoid federal
imposition of corporate Status and Obligations resulting from
Regulations establishing Religion as one qualification to exempt a
corporation from Tax, such that its exercise thereof is unfree.
it has abdicated a government of Laws by denying Us equal Protection
thereunder, and practicing selective Enforcement thereof.
it has rewarded malicious Prosecutions of Parents for mortally shaking
babies, whereby all Evidence is suppressed that they instead died from
adverse reactions to vaccinations that their immune systems were too
underdeveloped to withstand; or rewarded uncompensated Takings, without
due Process under trumped up Charges of child Abuse, of Their surviving
babies injured by the vaccines, so as to prevent Claims upon the Vaccine
Injury Compensation Trust Fund.
it has plundered cash Deposits in Trust Funds for Vaccine Injury
Compensation, Social Security, Postal and Military Pensions, and replaced
them with internal Treasury Bonds never authorised as marketable
securities.
it had closed banks and subsequently seized Our Gold Coins on deposit
with them, when the proper measure against federal Insolvency during the
Depression was to have sold Assets owned by it for Our benefit, such as
the Phillipines to Japan, the Alaskan Panhandle to Canada, & Puerto Rico
to Mexico; instead it plundered a competitive Monetary System backed by
deposits of Our own Gold and Silver, and replaced It by a monopolised
Bills-of-Credit System backed only by Federal Reserve Accounting Units
of Debt, which ultimately also made possible the recent S&L Crisis as
well as the current Credit Crisis.
it has exacerbated the Credit Crisis by permitting corrupt accounting
and financial practices, or by assuming the consequences as Liabilities
of the United States, thereby shrinking the supply of affordable Credit
for Individuals, States, Counties and Municipalities to weather economic
crises, and for domestic Businesses to reinvest in our economy.
it has let multinationals plunder Our Waters, Mines and Forests for much
less than fair value, kill untold numbers of Us from pharmaceuticals,
artificial sweeteners, contaminated food, vaccines or blood products,
while destroying Family Farming and other Livelihoods for their benefit.
it is at this time assisting, via Immunity from arrest or prosecution,
foreign and domestic Agents and Diplomats to buy, steal and sell our
strategic Secrets, to produce, transport and market illegal Drugs, to
kidnap, rape and murder Our Children, or to commit other unspeakable
Crimes scarcely parallelled in the most barbarous ages, which bespeak a
total Betrayal by those in Office sworn to defend us against our
enemies.
it has constrained Our fellow Citizens to be entrapped in biological,
psychiatric or other covert operations, to become Assassins and
Executioners of Their associates and Brethren, or to fall Themselves by
their hands for being potential Whistle-blowers, unless They commit
Suicide first.
it has been the proximate cause of domestic Violence amongst Our
underpaid military Families, and has endeavored to create a new
Generation of Terrorists from the recent practice of deploying at home
and abroad merciless overpaid Mercenaries whose new Rules of Engagement
are the indiscriminate destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
In every escalation of these Oppressions We have petitioned the
Executive Branch for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated
Petitions have been answered by repeated injury, insult or a deaf ear. A
bureaucracy whose character is thus marked by every act which may define
criminals, is unfit to be a suzerain or vassal of its Sovereign States.
Nor have We been wanting in Petitions to the other Branches of Our
federal vassal. We have warned Congress from time to time of attempts to
legislate an unwarrantable Jurisdiction over Us. We have reminded them
of the Terms of their Tenures. We have appealed in the Supreme Court to
their native Justice and Magnanimity, and We have conjured them by the
ties of our common Heritage to check these Usurpations that inevitably
harm our Institutions at home and Reputation abroad. They too have been
deaf to the Voice of Justice and of Sympathy. Consequently, We must
acquiesce in the necessity to demote the national Government in keeping
with the Form guaranteed in Article IV.4 of the Constitution as ordained
originally under the Articles of Confederation & perpetual Union, and to
once again become its Intermediary for any of its Powers and Tax Revenues
such that Our People are free from direct interference by it in Their
own affairs.
Therefore, We, the Legislators of this State, in the Statehouse assembled,
invoking Articles IV.4 & VII of the Constitution for the Rectitude of
Our Intentions, do, in the Name and by Authority of the Creators of this
State, solemnly publish and declare: That this State is, and of Right is
entitled to be, a non-Dependent State, and thus repeals Its Ratification
of the Constitution for the United States of America, except for Articles
I.1.i, I.2.i, I.3.i & IV.4, and the first Ten Amendments; that although
still unfree to the extent of the Terms of the Articles of Confederation &
perpetual Union and the Bill of Rights, We are nonetheless absolved from
all Allegiance to said Constitution, and that all Laws, Treaties, Agencies
and Programs approved by Congress contrary to the Terms of said Articles
are within this State henceforth unlawful; and that as a non-Dependent
State, albeit one not compleatly free of Obligations to the Union, We
have full Power to secure Our Borders, issue Passports and Visas, arrest
and deport illegal Immigrants, regulate and tax Commerce and Finance,
and to do other Acts and Things which non-Dependent States may of Right
do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the
protection of divine Providence, We each pledge a Bond of twelve
thousand silver Dollars to be forfeited if We do not, when amending Our
State Constitution in accordance with this Declaration, propose: that no
State Official may seek a consecutive Term for the same Office, or
accept or solicit Campaign Contributions for any other Office; that
Counties be invested with Sovereign Capacity, as in Swiss Cantons whose
vassal is the Swiss State, but solely via popular Referenda; that every
County be represented at the Statehouse by an equal number of Senators,
and each District therein by a Representative elected by Its Citizens
using hand-counted Paper Ballots as in Canada; and that the free System
of English Laws be fully restored, whereby a Bar Member may not directly
represent, nor outside the Courtroom confer with Litigants on their cases,
other than by way of Litigants' Attorneys who by Law may not be Bar
Members nor other Officers of the State, thereby avoiding Conflicts of
Interest when representing Litigants, as avoided even in South Africa,
where the free System is still preserved.
