It is popular among our people to entertain the idea that we are a free people. We speak about our proud heritage and the freedoms secured by the blood of our Founding Fathers. We revel in the idea that our nation is the most prosperous on the earth. Prosperity is measured by the accumulation of toys and material comforts. Unfortunitely, for many people, social status comes before intellectual honesty. Today, our nation is largely inhabited by a people who consider social position more important than the survival of freedom in America. What about you, dear reader? Do you value wealth more than liberty? Do you prefer the tranquility of servitude to the aminating contest of freedom? Most people respond to these questions with an indignant remark about how they are as patriotic as the next man. All you indignant folks out there have been had !! While we struggle to make ends meet our government is busy selling us down the river, bigtime! + We spend 2.5 billion each year on our defense against the communist hordes of the east, but did you know that international communism is simple the **** **** military arm of the international banking **** cartel? **** Furthermore, that our Congress turned our nation over to the internationaist World Bank on October the 28th, 1984? "Preposterous !" you say, "We have a Constitution to protect us." Wrong! For over one-hundred years our nation has had TWO constitutions! That's right, TWO constitutions! As far as the courts are concerned by one of them you are free and by the other you are a slave. Your connections with government determine what class of citizen you are, what class of citizen you are, what rights and freedoms you have. By now, you may feel that this writer is a raving lunitic. Well then, don't believe ME, hear what the United States Supreme Court says! "The thirteenth amendment is a great extension of the powers of the national government. " United States v. Morris, 125 Federal Reporter, page 322, 325. + "The amendment (fourteeth) reversed and annulled the original policy of the constitution," United States v. Rhodes, 27 Federal Cases, 785, 794. "It is quite clear then that there is a citizenship of the United States and a citizenship of a State, which are distinct from each other and which depend upon different characteristics or circumstances in the individual." Slaughter House Cases, 83 US 395, 407. "The rights of citizens of the state, as such, are not under consideration in the fourteenth amendment. They stand as they did before the adoption of the fourteenth amendment, and are fully quaranteed by other provisions." United States v. Anthony 24 Federal Cases 829, 830 "...the first eight amendments have uniformaly been held not be protected from state action by the privileges and immunities clause (of the fourteenth amendment)." Hague v. CIO, 307 US 496, 520 "The rights of a citizen under on (state or United States citizenship) may be quite different from those which he has under the other.." Colgate v. Harvey, 296 US 404, 429 + "The right to trial by jury in civil cases, quaranteed by the Seventh Amendment...and the right to bear arms quaranteed by the Second Amendment...have been distinctly held not to be privileges and immunities of citizens of the United States quaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment ...and in effect the same decision was made in respect of the quarantee against prosecution, except by indictment of a grand jury, contained in the Fifth Amendment...and in respect of the right to be confronted with witnesses, contained in the Sixth Amendment... it was held that the indictment, made indespensible by the Fifthe Amendment, and the trail by jury quaranteed by the Sixth Amendment, were no privileges and immunities of citizens of the United States, as those words were used in the forteenth Amendment. We conclude, therefore, that the exemption from compulsory self-incrimination in not a privilege or imminity of National citizenship quaranteed by this clause of the Forteenth Amendment." Twining v. New Jersey, 211 US 78, 98-99.
