| 18jun21 | State Sovereignty Still Matters
Robert Stacy McCain
“It is important to remember that the states created the federal government, not the other way around.
America’s founders intentionally restrained the federal governments
constitutional boundaries to ensure each state could flourish in unique
ways. Today, our federal government has largely forgotten the Founders’
intent, but my office has not.” –Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich | |
| 24mar13 | Ancient History and Modern Constitutional Powers of American Sheriffs – Part 1
Kelly O'Connell
Can
America’s sheriffs save our Constitution and our precious liberties?
The exhaustive history of the sheriff has yet to be written, but much
is known of the rise of these county leaders, once called shire reeves,
in old England...Today, they are the last bastion of popular
representation in law enforcement. | |

Jury Nullification – Your Awesome
Power
Alan Stang
Consider that the law is always on trial...
All you need do is vote for acquittal. They won’t ask you why. If they
do, furious, or just frustrated by your monkey wrench vote, you will
not say you did it to nullify the law. |

The Lawyers' Party
Bruce Walker
Today,
we are drowning in laws, we are contorted by judicial decisions, we are
driven to distraction by omnipresent lawyers in all parts of our once
private lives. America has a place for laws and lawyers, but
that
place is modest and reasonable, not vast and unchecked. |

Jefferson On Judges
Kim Weissman
"…the opinion which gives to the judges the right
to decide what laws are constitutional and what not, not only for
themselves in their own sphere of action but for the Legislature and
Executive also in their spheres, would make the Judiciary a despotic
branch" —Thomas Jefferson |

Schumerism
Brian C.
Anderson
The New York senator’s view that there’s no
difference between law and politics is at the heart of the judicial
crisis. Extremist and utterly contrary to the spirit of the
Constitution, Schumerism promises to wreak incalculable damage to our
political fabric as the battle for control of the nation’s courts
widens. |

The Legal System Is Now Our Enemy
Dennis Prager
I have come to fear almost everything having to
do with law. Though there are many fine people in the legal profession,
and though law is necessary to protect society from descending into
chaos, I now fear the legal profession more than I do Islamic terror. |

That Ten Commandments Case
Michael
Novak
Calling the attention of the public to the
Judeo-Christian conception of God's sovereignty, which grounds the
principle of religious liberty, is not necessarily the same as
'establishing' the Jewish or Christian religions. |

Accursed Deodands!
Bob Wallace
The concept of the deodand partly explains the
destruction of the World Trade Center. Bring down these "evil objects,"
get some revenge, and then people in foreign countries dance in the
streets to express their glee and satisfaction. |

Litigation:
The death of democracy
Malcolm
Wallop
With the assistance and backing of trial
lawyers, small and extreme groups are finding it increasingly easy to
bypass and subvert the democratic process and impose their agenda on
the rest of society by abusing litigation and manipulating the courts. |

ABA's Liberal Bias Exposed in Study
"Controlling for
credentials, Clinton nominees have more than 10 times
better odds of getting a unanimous well-qualified rating than similarly
credentialed Bush appointees. Just being nominated by Clinton instead
of Bush is a stronger positive variable than any other credential or
than all other credentials put together." |

Constitutional Propaganda
No law allows the
government to appeal or overturn a jury acquittal, nor for any juror to
be questioned by authorities, or charged or punished in any way for
voting to acquit. |

So
Sue Them, Sue Them
When governments use
the judiciary to recover "damages," the courts intrude on the
regulatory and revenue responsibilities of legislatures. |

Are you shirking your duty
to help keep America free?
Be wary of any
attempt to propagandize concepts and words which the founders
considered vital to instruct us about our freedoms and the tools
necessary to preserve them, turning them into 'hate speech' terms of
scorn and derision. |

Destroying
the Rule of Law
Most Americans, in
their ignorance and laziness, have become indifferent to the rule of
law. If such indifference continues the tyranny and criminality of the
Clinton years will pale in comparison to the destruction of freedom
that is yet to come. |

The
Ominous Growth of Paramilitarism
in American Police Departments
State and local
police departments are increasingly accepting the military as a model
for their behavior and outlook. The sharing of training and technology
is producing a shared mindset. |

Jurors'
Handbook - A Citizens Guide to Jury Duty
Did you know that you
qualify for another, much more powerful vote than the one which you
cast on election day? This opportunity comes when you are selected for

Citizen's
Rule Book – The Jury
Handbook
Your vote of NOT
GUILTY must be respected by all other members of the JURY - it is the
RIGHT and the DUTY of a JUROR to Never, Never, NEVER yield his or her
sacred vote - for you are not there as a fool, merely to agree with the
majority, but as an officer of the court and a qualified judge in your
own right. |
