"There are two distinct classes of men...those who pay taxes and those who receive and live upon taxes."

-Thomas Paine

 

You can't understand the present if you don't understand the past...

Illuminating anniversaries of this week:

June 15- In 1215, King John (who had imposed Britain's first income tax), is forced at sword-point to put his seal to the Magna Carta and subordinate himself to the rule of law.  John repudiates his act as soon as the forces that had brought him to heel leave town, and Pope Innocent II steps in to annul the "shameful and demeaning agreement, forced upon the King by violence and fear".  John dies during the subsequent civil war.  In 1752, Benjamin Franklin proves that lightning is electricity.  In 1775, George Washington is appointed commander of the Continental Army.  In 1836, Arkansas is admitted to the union as the 25th of the several states.  In 1844, Charles Goodyear receives a patent for vulcanization of rubber.  In 1911, the Tabulating Computing Recording Corporation is founded.  (It later changed its name to IBM.)  In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson signs a bill incorporating the Boy Scouts of America, making them the only American youth organization with a federal charter.

 

Anniversaries of interest for each day of this week will be found throughout the newsletter below.

How Stupid Do They Think We Are?

Pretty stupid, indeed, it would seem, as the C19 panic-mongering begins anew...

HERE IS THE QUESTION OF THE MONTH (because its aptness will not fade until at least July...): How stupid do the stenographers-for-the-state at Associated Press and the other MSM outlets think we are?

This past Friday, every such outlet featured one or another version of, "Alarming rise in virus cases as states roll back lockdowns" (for instance, this). Are we supposed to be so stupid as to not realize that a rise in the number of "cases" just reflects a rise in testing?

Are we supposed to have forgotten that millions of Americans were infected all the way back in January and February (as shown here), and therefore more tests will of course reveal more infections?

But more importantly, are we supposed to be so stupid as to not realize that more revealed infections in no way means more danger from the virus? Instead this "more case" revelation just emphasizes the harmlessness of the virus.

The "more case" revelation just emphasizes the fact that the virus has been circulating continuously for more than half a year now throughout huge swaths of the population. That, in turn, underscores the fact that despite continuous circulation throughout huge swaths of the population the virus has only produced a fatality rate on the low end of typical for the standard flu-- if even that-- and from the same demographic that would have been succumbing to this year's standard flu anyway, if not one of the other co-morbidities with which most were afflicted.

THERE IS NO CRISIS. There never was. A rise in virus cases as states roll back lockdowns won't mean a crisis in the future, either, and an uptick in hospitalizations is just more of the pearl-clutching over-reaction that has been going on for months. Neither are alarming.

What IS alarming is that the possibility that this latest effort to suck Americans into persistent panic so the incompetence or crimes of those responsible for the still-ongoing destruction of liberty and the rule of law will be overlooked or forgiven.

Don't let it happen.

The best way to do that (and to protect us all from another round of hammering on the rule of law and the health of our tottering economy) is to GO ON OFFENSE (that always being the best thing to do against political villains anyway...). I have given you the tools to do so, here (and among them is now a Liberty And Accountability Key for Georgia, along with the others).

Use them, please.

Share them, please.

All governments are run by liars and nothing they say should be believed."

-I. F. Stone

Some Follow-Up On The George Floyd Story

...in the interest of keeping the activism on point.

I'VE BEEN DISTURBED TO SEE much of the punditry and social media dialogue regarding the Floyd murder morph into a "racism" complaint/discussion. I suspect that such punditry and dialogue-steering is a deliberate effort to divert attention from the real issue, which, as I said last week, is the institutionalized unaccountability of government actors.

This is not to say that there is no racism rearing its ugly head now and then in police departments and elsewhere. Surely, there is.

But the real issue in George Floyd's murder is that even though indefensible in any rational mind, and even though having been committed in broad daylight, in front of many witnesses, and even caught on film, everyone knows that the odds of the smiling and casual killer and his loitering accomplices getting thrown in prison for a long, long time, are minimal, at best. And everyone who thinks about it knows that this is NOT because George Floyd was black, but is because a judicially-invented concept called "official immunity" (in most discussions referred to as "qualified immunity" as regards the actions of police) will be raised to shield Floyd's killers from accountability.

It is that perfectly-predictable injustice that is driving the outrage of the arisen community (or was to begin with, until the arising and the anger driving it was co-opted by narrative-managers and opportunists).

And it is that perfectly-predictable injustice on which the ongoing punditry, dialoguing and activism should focus.

OVER THE COURSE OF THE LAST TEN YEARS, the institutionalized-unaccountability which protestors expect to see in the Floyd case has been pulled more and more into the light of day by similar incidents of largely-similar egregiousness. Indeed, the commonplace character of the anger-inducing unaccountability is pointedly demonstrated by the casualness with which Derek Chauvin and his accomplices acted.

There doesn't appear to have been a moment's concern on the part of any of these perps about perhaps going too far, save only one brief expression by one of the cops looking on, quickly abandoned. This kind of behavior doesn't manifest except where the actors have not the slightest reason for caution grounded in their past experience and their institutionally-imbued expectations.

In fact, I think it is the utterness and obviousness of Derek Chauvin's manifest certainty that no repercussions threaten him personally for his behavior that made this particular police killing the offense that prompted a nation-wide protest where previous equally-indefensible "official" crimes have not. Unlike in those other ugly crimes, the evil specter of "immunity" boldly unveiled itself in Minneapolis.

Chauvin as much as mouths to the horrified onlookers, "Watch me all you want, shout at me all you want. I'm going to do as I please and not give it a second thought. I'm untouchable." The three uniformed police officers who stand by without intervening emphasize the soundness of Chauvin's perspective.

Who can be surprised that protests erupted? It would have been shocking and deeply disturbing had they not.

Indeed, every American should be proud and delighted that a notably-sized cadre of their fellows arose to condemn the outrage of "immunity" informing Derek Chauvin's casual crime.

SADLY, THOUGH, THE LOOTING AND SIMPLE THUGGERY opportunistically accompanying the protests have tainted the righteous activism. Just as unfortunately, that righteous activism has also been tainted by the efforts of various organizations to co-opt its energy and visibility on behalf of their institutional interests-- most prominently, "Black Lives Matter, Inc." (and most hypocritically, the Democratic Party, whose operatives and adherents have presided over 50% of police-state-Leviathan's growth just as Republican Party operatives and adherents have presided over the other 50%, and which notoriously and undeniably has taken black political support for granted for decades, nonetheless).

Such efforts are frauds and anyone buying into them is a fool.

Is it to be doubted that had George Floyd been one of the even greater number of white men killed each year by police than black men, for instance, but all else went down the same way otherwise, that the same outrage and the same initial protests would have erupted (or would have been fitting)? I should hope not.

The sole difference in the protest aftermath in that hypothetical would have been its immunity (pardon the expression) to co-option and diversion by the false (or at least, irrelevant) charge of "racism" from the real root of the real problem-- the judicially-invented, Constitution-defying doctrine of "official immunity".

I urge everyone to become a force of re-centering. Denounce the co-opting opportunists (just as you denounce the rampaging looters and thugs), and the the false narratives. Help keep the focus where it belongs-- on the law-defying judicial deference to the interests of the burgeoning police state in defying the law with impunity known as "immunity".

***

BTW, I HEARD TODAY THAT DEREK CHAUVIN is going to receive his $50,000-per-year pension even if convicted of the murder of George Floyd and parked in prison for the rest of his life. Criminal convictions don't affect that benefit, it is reported.

Heck of a union contract, yes?

When I heard this I had to wonder if there was an exception in that contract for, say, a conviction for embezzling from the police pension fund? Just kidding...

As appropriate as such an embezzlement exception would seem to be, I'm sure no one would have thought to include it. Doing so would have been so "off message", right?

SERIOUSLY, THOUGH, HOW ABOUT THIS for a proper municipal union contract provision: A worker's pension gets reduced by whatever amount the city for which he worked has to pay for legally-determined malfeasance, whether in settlements to victims, the city's legal bills, or whatever.

There is much proper harmony in such a notion, I think.

Further, such a balance of cause and effect would not only be harmonious. It would also operate as a much-needed deterrent against recklessness, negligence or malice-- the only things for which a worker could be personally found responsible for the losses to the city.

Negligence, recklessness and malice should all be viewed as utterly intolerable in the first place. Thus, making the people of the city whole to as much a degree as possible by the expedient of reducing the compensation (deferred as a pension or otherwise) to the one responsible could only be seen as justice.

By the same token the notion that citizens of the city should be compelled to pay benefits to someone who has cost them money for his bad behavior-- behavior conducted in their name, and which therefore damages their reputation-- is crazy. This is especially true when the malfeasance has terrorized the citizenry personally and diminished their quality of life-- such as where a rogue cop has unlawfully killed someone walking among them.

***

I WAS PLEASED TO COME ACROSS this excellent video presentation in an article I was reading the other day. It's well worth the six-and-a-half minutes, doing a lot to help explain some of the crazy responses by some to the George Floyd killing which, regardless of anything which may or not be true about Floyd or his past, was completely wrong and indefensible in every way:

***

FINALLY, let me end by pointing out the unique opportunity for memorable and meaningful expression offered to the CtC-educated community by the protest response to the George Floyd murder, and by encouraging everyone to make good use of opportunity-- right away, while it is hot:

Show some respect for the law, and some respect for yourself, America!

Still Timely: Not Letting This "Crisis" Go To Waste...

...an important action item opportunity.

FRIENDS, THE BIT OF EASING of the despotic measures to which most of the country has been subjected this spring should not be allowed to bleed off the head of steam you probably had been developing. The offenses happened, and they're far from over. Stay hot.

And while you are all warmed up, and while others, if they're smart, are just as hot, I'd like you to send an email (and Facebook post, or whatever) with the following content to everyone you can (with a request that they pass it along, in turn):

[Name], over the last several months you've watched as over-fed state power has been used to literally destroy classical Western civilization and impose a new despotic paradigm. No dissent or debate permitted-- no permission or agreement sought.

YOU KNOW where this will end up if the arrogant state power being used to make this happen isn't radically diminished in size, influence, resources and popular support, and exposed as an opportunistic exploiter of legal ignorance (an ignorance which it has been nurturing in the average mind for decades).

Those things having not yet happened, you should be quaking in your boots-- and you probably are.

Isn't it time-- and past time-- for you to begin helping to make those desperately-needed defensive changes take place? There is only one way these things can happen short of a who-knows-what we'll-end-up-with explosion of violence. I'm going to show it to you.

Read this little two-page document. Click on the links at the end.

When you're done with that reading, you'll know what to do next.

BTW, REMEMBER, ALSO, THAT EVERY AMERICAN has lately been given a stark lesson in the fact that government officials at all levels will lie to you and violate the law without batting an eye. They will do so any time it serves their agenda, and you don't call them out for it.

If you know anyone who has been persisting in denial on the truth about the income tax, you know such nonsense is usually be grounded in some version or another of, "That can't be true..." or "They would never do something like that...". Now's the time to put a pin in that delusional bubble.

As the C19 hoax has starkly shown, "that" certainly CAN be true, and they certainly WOULD do something like that.

Use this evidence in all your outreach efforts.

"It is not the function of our Government to keep the citizen from falling into error; it is the function of the citizen to keep the Government from falling into error."

Regarding Trolleries

(Deceitful efforts to discourage Americans from learning the truth about the "income tax")

 

 

FOR ALL THE YEARS SINCE 2003 when CtC was first published, the government has engaged in a concerted effort to frighten people away from its truths. This effort involves official government websites and press releases touting an occasional court ruling that appears to be at odds with some CtC-revelation (but without details sufficient to expose the real substance of the ruling)-- and sometimes even more mendacious behavior.

Are the presentations and resources offered on this site and in my other work of any value to you?

Tim Kendrick has posted a video on YouTube regarding donations. I didn't know what to do about it to begin with; I don't do what I do intending for anyone to feel obligated in any way.

But of course, no one IS obligated. I will continue to make my work freely-available here, and in my books for only the cost of a cheap paperback.

Thus, even though I post it here below, Tim's very thoughtful personal resolution and encouragement to others is just an invitation for consideration by those who may not be conscious of the fact that I can't do what I do without support. No one is to feel any pressure from it; if it moves anyone to act let it be solely because it seems right.

LEAD BY EXAMPLE

KNOW WHERE TO FIND THE RESOURCES

BE FAMILIAR WITH THE SCAMS, THE MISUNDERSTANDINGS, AND THE TROLL-POLLUTION

TAKE CHARGE IN YOUR STATE FORUM, HELPING EVERYONE TO THINK CLEARLY AND STAY ON TOPIC

All-in-all, just be the sort of person for others that you would go to yourself for trustworthy leadership.

Leadership is a challenge. But it's not complicated, and you can do it.

A Good Man Urges Americans To Put On Their Big Boy And Big Girl Pants

Forrest Voss in Texas tells it like it is, and everyone should pay heed.

TEXAS WARRIOR FORREST VOSS included me in the distribution of his reach-out-and-grab-by-the-lapels effort, below. I'm very pleased to be able to share it with all of you, in hope that it will inspire more of the same.

Long or short, eloquent or simple, it doesn't matter-- what matters is getting the stuff out there. Here's how Forrest did that for his part (under the subject line, "I have had enough!", and with The Texas Liberty And Accountability Key attached):

To my esteemed family, friends, colleagues, acquaintances, representatives in congress, media moguls, and whomever else I can think of to send this to:

Enough is enough! The lunacy taking over this country and the world is absolutely astounding. It is time to grow up and start using our God given brains for more than hat racks. It is time to start using some Common Sense and Common Courtesy, two very rare commodities these days, which, if brought back in good measure would fix a lot of problems the world is dealing with right now I will try to keep this as short as possible, so here are the bullet points:

1. You can live in fear or you can live in faith, but you CANNOT DO BOTH.

2. Eventually we are ALL going to DIE from something, it is a part of life, get used to the idea.

3. If you think wearing your flimsy little mask is keeping you safe in public, THINK AGAIN! Ever see the chem suits lab technicians wear when working with (you guessed it) VIRUSES! Your puny little face covering is not going to save you, or anyone else. In a 60 Minutes interview, even fascist Fauci said wearing a mask in public is practically useless (then changed his tune a few weeks later). If you are sick (or think you might be) STAY HOME! Common Sense 101. Do you not realize how many viruses, bacteria, pollutants, poisons, etc., you breathe in every day? Yet you are not SICK? It's a MIRACLE! That's right, you are a miracle in motion with an immune system designed to protect you from foreign invaders. If you are immuno-compromised, you are in trouble, whether from Covid 19 or ANY OTHER OPPORTUNISTIC FOREIGN AGENT! Most, if not ALL of us have already been exposed to Covid 19, and most do not come down with any symptoms. Of those who are symptomatic, the very small percentage that incur further complications leading to death is about the same as a bad year for the flu virus(es). Yet we don't go to this extreme neurotic behavior for flu!!! Nosocomial infections (hospital induced) and Iatrogenic diseases (doctor induced) together cause over 500,000 deaths per year in America alone, yet you did not boycott the hospitals or shun your doctors before this scamdemic (plandemic, damndemic, it's all the same) hit.

4. We are supposed to be AMERICANS! We the People are the SOVEREIGNS (look up that word in the dictionary if you have forgotten what it means) and our so-called government is OUR PUBLIC SERVANT! We get to call the shots. There is NO PROVISION, WHATSOEVER, in any of our constitutions, federal or state, that gives our public servants carte blanche authority to shut down our businesses or lock us down in our homes for ANY REASON WHATSOEVER, even in any so-called or so-declared disaster or emergency. Look it up in your own state constitution. If you are a business owner and have been harmed by "executive orders," it is time to get your big boy/girl pants on and sue the government for damages. The attachment to this email will help (this key is for Texas, but your state constitution will have same or similar wording, just look up the differing articles and sections). Understand that the struggle for control of the masses has historically been between church and state, and many times in collusion, for the SOLE PURPOSE of TRANSFERRING THE WEALTH from the masses into their pockets. I spent ten years of the prime of my life in military service for the cause of LIBERTY, I'll be damned if I'm going to start living like a slave now! "A nation of sheep will beget a government of wolves." Edward R. Murrow

5. One of President Trump's campaign promises was to "drain the swamp." Pretty hard to do if you keep pumping it full of water, which is exactly what you are doing if you labor in a job of common right NOT associated with ANY federal benefit or privilege, ANY federal excise taxable activity, utilizing any federal property, nor are employed in any capacity in the federal government, and are still paying the federal income tax. FEDERAL INCOME should give you a clue as to what is legally taxable by the federal government. Go to losthorizons.com, get the book Cracking the Code: The Fascinating Truth About Taxation in America by Peter Hendrickson, read the articles on the website, dig a little into the origin, history, supreme court decisions, etc. regarding the federal income tax, then do the right thing and stop feeding the ever-growing Leviathan state. We have CREATOR ENDOWED UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, but only as long we understand that we must ACCEPT THE RESPONSIBILITIES TO ENSURE THOSE RIGHTS! That means to "know the law and be well disposed to use it." Get off your lazy, couch potato, spoiled, privileged, fried chicken eatin' American asses and READ! Then ACT! The more people that ACT on the TRUTH, the sooner we can get back to the Great Republic this country used to be. If you don't, re-read bullet number 4 above.

“Knowledge will forever govern ignorance; and a people who mean to be their own governors must arm themselves with the power which knowledge gives.”

-James Madison

6. RACISM...and the idiocy produced as a result. I don't care who you THINK you are, how rich, how famous, how infamous, how talented, how smart, how good looking, what color, what sex, what belief system, what politics, what religion, how educated, where you grew up, who you know, how privileged, what job you have (including President of the United States of America), etc., while those things might make you BETTER OFF, they surely DO NOT MAKE YOU BETTER THAN any other living human being on this planet. And the sooner you realize that and start treating ALL people with love, honor and respect, and realize we are all endowed by our Creator with certain UNALIENABLE rights, among those the right to LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS, and that if you want to partake of those rights, you MUST also respect the same rights for everyone else, including the person cleaning your toilet, the faster we can heal our homes, neighborhoods, communities, cities, counties, states, and yes, the whole world. NO ONE, not even government, has the RIGHT to INITIATE the use of force, but EVERYONE has the ABSOLUTE RIGHT to DEFEND themselves in any and every way possible from those who violate that prohibition. And if you have a family, that becomes more than a right, it is a DUTY to protect. Get off your high horse, you ain't all that and a bag of chips, NONE of us are. We are all DIFFERENT, that fact DOES NOT MAKE ANY OF US BETTER. We are all human, prone to weaknesses and mistakes, with the inward capacity to do great good...or great evil as history has shown. That is a choice you must make every single waking moment of every single day of your short, pathetic miserable life. Just STOP THE INSANITY!

For most of the people receiving this whom I know personally, I realize I am "preaching to the choir." But please, if you agree, heck, even if you don't, send it to everyone on your contact list(s) and urge them to do the same. We need as many people to jump on the Common Sense and Common Courtesy bandwagon as soon as possible in order to get out of this Twilight Zone and back to reality. Also, please forgive me for using the somewhat sarcastic and twisted bits of attempted humor from a frustrated, opinionated, grumpy, grouchy old fart trying to motivate more people into action. Sometimes it takes more than a "hey, come on, let's get going," like a sharp poke in the eye (metaphorically speaking). Realize the spirit and intent behind it and don't take it personally (unless, of course, the shoe fits, lol).

Humbly submitted with much love, honor and respect to and for you all,

Forrest William Voss

FORREST PEGS IT, as he so often does. There is a looming question right now of whether this American experiment of a state subordinated to the primacy of individual liberty and the rule of law begun by the Founders 244 years ago will survive, or will go out like a candle starved for oxygen.

It's up to you, my friends.

If you put more value in what you imagine to be the personal safety to be had by acquiescing to the masks and the "distancing" and being tracked, and to the restrictions on your movement and your management of your own life and business, and to the egregious violations of state and national Constitutions by which you are being threatened if you resist these things, than you do in the principles of the American experiment, it will die. This year. Before your very eyes. No joke.

And though it doesn't matter, you will also get nothing good for doing that acquiescing. There really is nothing meaningful from which any of it will protect you, since C19 is just a typical coronavirus such as we have handled without any of these impositions every year for all of human history, and less dangerous than many of them.

YOU ARE BEING PLAYED, those of you that are acquiescing to the hobgoblin-floggers. As Forrest says, pull on your big-boy and big-girl pants and stand up like real Americans.

Only idiots and children would let the enduring blessings of liberty and the rule of law slip away from them and their posterity in order to protect themselves from a transient hazard, even if it WAS a truly dire threat.

Grow up.

If a foreign enemy invaded these shores to impose tracking and to dictate who gets to work or operate a business and who doesn't, and whether or not you can go to church, or to a political rally, or even just to a football game, you would put your life on the line in a heartbeat, braving bombs and bullets repelling such tyranny.

Are you seriously going to huddle at home and not repel that same tyranny when all you risk is contact with a bug? Especially a bug sporting nothing but an insignificant case fatality rate, which leaves 80-90% of infected individuals not even knowing they've had it?!

Grow up. Then get loud and start calling out the bad guys.

You can find Liberty And Accountability Keys for Michigan, Texas, Virginia, Kentucky, Wyoming and now Georgia here, and these can be used as models from which to construct one for YOUR state, if that's not among these six.

"Necessity is the plea for every infringement of human freedom. It is the argument of tyrants; it is the creed of slaves."

Are You Having Trouble Spreading The Word??

SKEPTICISM (SOMETIMES INVOKED BY FEAR) IS TO BE EXPECTED when you're trying to explain to someone that everything they've been encouraged their whole lives to believe about something as entrenched and significant as the income tax is basically nonsense. So here's a way to help cut through the resistance:

Ask your listener how he or she would react if you were to show an announcement from the Commissioner of Internal Revenue admitting that the tax doesn't apply to the earnings of most Americans and is misapplied most of the time because people don't understand how it works? Or how about if you showed a ruling from the Supreme Court saying the same?

Now you just have to explain that you're going to show exactly those things-- but because the state really doesn't want people to know this, these things haven't been said quite as forthrightly as we would all wish. It's going to take a bit more work to take these admissions in than is sufficient for just reading a press release. But it'll be worth the effort...

The Liberating Truth About The 16th Amendment

IF YOU'RE NOT SPREADING THIS LINK with every bit of energy you can, to school libraries, homeschool families and community groups, your neighbors, your family members, your pastors and co-congregationalists, journalists, lawyers, CPAs, members of congress, tax-agency workers, Wikipedia, Anonymous, WikiLeaks, the Tax Foundation, everyone in the "tax honesty" movement, the 9/11 truth movement, other activist movements and everyone else, you have only yourself to blame for your troubles with the tax, and a whole lot else of which you might complain. It's on you.

WRITE A NICE, FRIENDLY AND BRIEF introductory note explaining what will be seen at the link-- cryptic is bad; excited is good-- and then send this WMI (weapon of mass instruction) far and wide.

Remember: Real Americans don't accommodate fog, lies and a sliding scale of adherence to the rule of law. Real American men and women stand up for the truth and the law, come what may, knowing that it is only by setting the bar at the top and enforcing it, come what may, that liberties are secured.

Under Four Presidents, The Feds Neglected Duty To Collect Statistics On Police Killings

Why has the Justice Department (sic) failed to follow a law from 1994?

by James Bovard

The brutal killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police has been condemned by former Presidents Bill Clinton, George W. Bush and Barack Obama. However, police violence spiraled out of control in part because each of those presidents failed to obey a law compelling the feds to track police killings around the nation.

In 1994, Congress enacted the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act, which boosted subsidies for local and state law enforcement. The bill also required the attorney general to “acquire data about the use of excessive force by law enforcement officers” across the nation and to “publish an annual summary of the data acquired.” Congress effectively ordered the Justice Department to document how often police kill unarmed private citizens.

Two years later, a Justice Department report raised the white flag: “Systematically collecting information on use of force from the nation's more than 17,000 law enforcement agencies is difficult given ... the sensitivity of the issue.” 

Instead of requiring local and state law enforcement agencies to comply with the new federal law, the Justice Department expanded its "police-public contact survey" to ask "a series of questions about the use of both appropriate and inappropriate force during police-civilian encounters."

Yet as professor James Fyfe, one of the nation’s foremost experts on police shootings, observed, “Since dead people can’t participate in such a survey, this work tells us nothing about how often police kill.”

Seven years after the 1994 crime bill was enacted, the Justice Department issued a report that effectively presumed that anyone who was gunned down by police deserved to die. "Policing and Homicide, 1976–1998: Justifiable Homicide by Police, Police Officers Murdered by Felons" labeled everyone in the nation who perished as a result of a police shooting as “felons justifiably killed by police.” There were hundreds, if not thousands, of people shot unjustifiably by the police in those decades, but their innocence vanished in a copy-editing flick.

The Justice Department was so embarrassed by the report’s “lack of distinction between justifiable police shootings and murders, that it did not send out its usual promotional material announcing the report,” according to The New York Times.

Afterword

YOU'VE GOT TO BE IMPRESSED BY THE SHAMELESSNESS of whoever it was at the "Justice" Department who chose to explain its defiance of the 1994 mandate to gather and publish stats on police killings of civilians in America by reference to "the sensitivity of the issue." Where do these government agencies find their sociopaths?

Or perhaps they aren't "found". Maybe they just arise spontaneously as what may have been starry-eyed new hires come to Washington to do good steep for a few years in the toxic environment of the swamp in which they find themselves.

Just in case that particular nutcase is reading, let me explain: It is the "sensitivity" of the issue TO US that is the reason why we want you to collect and publish the stats. The sensitivity of the police departments doing the killing is irrelevant.

Further, of course, (and hardly needing to be said), the very degree to which people like you, "Justice" Department spokesperson, and the police departments whose "sensitivities" you are so eager to protect even in defiance of our explicit command to you suggests that the withheld data is of great import and will be of very great interest to us.

INDEED, THE FAILURE OF THE "JUSTICE" Department to obey the law (and of four presidents to see to it that it is obeyed) makes me want to have another law passed (just for the irony, I suppose). I'm thinking of a law mandating the DoJ collection and publication of a list of all Congressional mandates on which the executive branch persistently pisses rather than obeys...

For instance, there is the mandated audit of the Pentagon that has never really been done (and was outright defied without even a pretense of compliance for nearly 30 years). And how about the persistent defiance of 22 U.S.C. §§ 2799aa and 2799aa-1 discussed here?

Then there's the War Powers Act of 1973... And this is to list three big items just off the top of my head. I think we'd end up seeing a very long and very important list if ever THIS mandate were followed-- and I'm sure it would impinge on the "sensitivities" of a lot of swamp creatures.

ANYWAY, THE REAL RESPONSE to Jim Bovard's journalism about the AWOL police killings report is simple and straightforward:

DEFUND THE POLICE STATE

A Little Extra

EVEN AS ARDENT A STATIST as Abraham Lincoln, in announcing his willingness to burn the Southern states to the ground in order to keep them paying the tariff for the benefit of Northern interests in his first inaugural address on March 4, 1861, paid at least lip service to the Founders design of leaving control over the fuel available to feed the fires Washington wants to light in the hands of the individual citizenry when he said, "Doing this I deem to be only a simple duty on my part; and I shall perform it, unless my rightful masters, the American people, shall withhold the requisite means..."

Do you know someone truly steeped in the Kool-Aid?

 

 I mean someone who finds it easier to believe that the far-better-educated, far-more-suspicious-of-government Americans of a hundred years ago were complete morons who granted authority to the state to take whatever it wished from themselves and their posterity than to imagine that they themselves simply misunderstand the true nature of the income tax? Even while knowing that their beliefs about the tax are derived entirely from the representations of those who profit from those beliefs (like tax bureaucrats and "tax professionals")?

 

Do you know someone like that? Shake them awake with the latest (fifteenth) edition of CtC!

C'mon! CtC can't be right! You're crazy!

If CtC were actually right, it would mean the government's been concealing and denying and suppressing the truth for years on end, and everybody knows THAT would never happen...

About The Author

Pete Hendrickson is possibly the most effective lawyer in history, even while never having set foot in a law school, nor ever being a card-carrying member of "the bar". He is the first American in history to secure a complete refund of Social Security and Medicare ‘contributions’ withheld from his earnings (along with all other property taken for federal taxes); further, since 2003 students of his legal analyses and arguments in ‘Cracking the Code- The Fascinating Truth About Taxation In America’’ (CtC), and its sequel, 'Was Grandpa Really a Moron?' have been routinely retaining and recovering billions of dollars which otherwise-- wrongly, but as a matter of course-- would have gone to federal or state government treasuries. This despite concerted efforts by government to suppress his work, and in some cases vigorously oppose the claims by his students.

Hendrickson is also a widely-read essayist on matters of politics, public policy and law; many of these works are collected in his second book, ‘Upholding the Law And Other Observations’. He is a member of Mensa; an award-winning artist; and has paid his dues as a youth soccer coach. He is a long-time political activist as well, and has served as co-chair and platform convention delegate of Michigan’s largest county Libertarian Party organization; as a consultant to the National Right to Work Foundation and Citizens for a Sound Economy; as a member of the Heartland Institute; and as a member of the International Society for Individual Liberty. He is a frequent radio-show guest on stations across the country.

Hendrickson's business career has included nearly a decade-and-a-half at the leading edge of the renewable-energy industry, both as Director of Purchasing and Materials Management and member of the R&D board at Starpak Energy Systems, the mid-west's then-largest solar heating and energy-recovery-and re-utilization company; and as founder and president of AFJ Inc., a high-efficiency lighting design, manufacture and installation firm.

Beginning in the mid-1990s and continuing for the twelve years before his present full-time focus on the restoration of the rule of law in America, Hendrickson directed purchasing activities for the $84 million-a-year multi-family-housing division of the Farmington Hills, Michigan branch of Edward Rose and Sons, with responsibility for 18,000+ apartments, direct supervision of 35 technicians and agents, and incidental authority over several hundred divisional workers. He also ran the division's 10 cable television earth-station and distribution systems in four states, and designed and administered the company's website.

On rather the other end of the spectrum, amidst these more mundane pursuits Hendrickson co-founded and was the primary creative force behind a small board- and card-game company that enjoyed a modest success for several years.

Hendrickson makes his home in southeast Michigan, with his wife and two children. He is currently working on his next book.
