US Corps: Happily Taking the Knee while Cheapout doing Nothing to Actually Help Solve Anything Engage

https://edition.cnn.com/2019/09/03/business/walmart-ends-handgun-ammo-sales… Walmart reverses position to appease sheep, enable govt... Walmart on Tuesday announced it will reduce its gun and ammunition sales, one month after more than 20 people were killed in a mass shooting at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas. Walmart also pressured Congress to enact gun safety measures. From a report: The company, America's largest retailer, said it will stop selling handgun ammunition and ammunition for short-barrel rifles after selling all of its current inventory. Walmart will also stop selling handguns in Alaska, the only state where it still sells handguns. And Walmart will request that customers no longer openly carry guns into its 4,700 US stores, or its Sam's Club stores, in states that allow open carry. However, Walmart will continue to sell long barrel deer rifles and shotguns and much of the ammunition for those guns. Walmart will also continue to allow concealed carry by customers with permits in its stores. In a memo to employees on Tuesday, Walmart CEO Doug McMillon said Walmart's changes were prompted by the El Paso, Texas, shooting, as well as recent mass shootings in Dayton, Ohio, and Midland and Odessa, Texas. "In a complex situation lacking a simple solution, we are trying to take constructive steps to reduce the risk that events like these will happen again," he said. "The status quo is unacceptable."

Hollywood Reporter: YouTube says it has removed more than 17,000 channels for hate speech, representing a spike in takedowns since its new hate speech policy went into effect in June. The Google-owned company calls the June update -- in which YouTube said it would specifically prohibit videos that glorify Nazi ideology or deny documented violent events like the Holocaust -- a "fundamental shift in our policies" that resulted in the takedown of more than 100,000 individual videos during the second quarter of the year. The number of comments removed during the same period doubled to over 500 million, in part due to the new hate speech policy. YouTube said that the 30,000 videos it had removed in the last month represented 3 percent of the views that knitting videos generated during the same period. YouTube says the videos removed represented a five-times increase compared with the previous three months. Still, in early August the ADL's Center on Extremism reported finding "a significant number of channels" that continue to spread anti-Semitic and white supremacist content.

Black's Law Dictionary

infohash:C9635CAA4772FBA4BE0C9343D52C684ECA77EFEA Black's Law Dictionary ========================================================================================= Now you can empower yourself to know the meaning of the words being used against us. Combine this with the definitions in the United States Code, and you're well on your way to figuring out what's really going on. These are all PDF versions. Only the 8th and 9th editions are searchable where text is recognize, all others are scanned images. Have fun and share! ========================================================================================= 1st Edition - 871 pages - Published 1891 2nd Edition - 1322 pages - Published 1910 3rd Edition - 1952 pages - Published 1933 4th Edition - 1956 pages - Published 1968 5th Edition - 1525 pages - Published 1979 6th Edition - 1663 pages - Published 1990 7th Edition - 1788 pages - Published 1999 8th Edition - 5426 pages - Published 2004 9th Edition - 1943 pages - Published 2009 ========================================================================================= In law, a law dictionary is known as a secondary authority in law. "A secondary authority is an authority purporting to explain the meaning or applicability of the actual verbatim texts of primary authorities; such as constitutions, statutes, case law, administrative regulations, executive orders, treaties, or similar legal instruments. Some secondary authority materials are written and published by governments to explain the laws in simple, non-technical terms, while other secondary authority materials are written and published by private companies, non-profit organizations, or other groups or individuals." Black's Law Dictionary is one of those secondary authority in law. The 5th edition is reportedly the edition modern day judges use in American court houses, which are really merchant tribunals based upon how they operate today. Courts are measures and machines for collecting cash for governments nowadays. You see this all time pertaining to traffic cases. However, this is not the fault of judges, the court system, politicians,or government in my opinion. It is the fault largely due to the American people who have become so fearful,lazy, and ignorant pertaining to their rights and the duties of their governing bodies and officials, so much so that their elected officials tell them what to do despite the people paying the elected officials via their tax dollars. Employers (American people) are supposed to telltheir employees (government officials) what to do, but no longer with American citizens. Americans, generally speaking, have been successfully dumb downed! People fear government instead of government fearing people. This was the slogan of the movie "V For Vendetta". The 5th edition was the last edition to contain case-decisional law orlegal precedent. All editions after the 5th edition - the 6th, 7th, 8th, and now 9th, do not contain case-decisional law or legal precedent. [from 1215.org] However, Black's Law Dictionary, 5th through 7th Editions are not as accurate because references to common law are progressively removed, and Roman Civil Law concepts are augmented in order to conform to the law enforcement needs of political power centers such as the Federal Government and the United Nations. The rule of thumb is that older dictionaries are useful for understanding natural rights, common law, personal sovereignty, and the people's point of view. Newer dictionaries are useful for understanding civil rights, Roman civil law, centralized authority, and the government's point of view. All attorneys are trained in the latter. Judges may go to special seminars to learn the former. ========================================================================================= Interesting Notes: The properly and completely defined the term “United States” was removed from the 7th Edition of the same dictionary by the publisher (possibly in an apparent effort to further conceal the truth about the limited jurisdiction of our federal government). The properly and completely defined term "Marriage License" has been removed from the 6th Edition and up.

Please honor our copyrights and our trademark rights, expressly reserved above. To order printed hard copies of our classic book "The Federal Zone," click here. To order signed and embossed copies of our very popular "31 Questions and Answers about the IRS," click here. We no longer provide pro bono answers to questions that arise from this website. Please read our support policy before sending email questions. See the Supreme Law Forum for latest Update Highlights. This website will provide important updates and information about our distance-learning seminars and the SupremeLaw discussion list and message archive. We also provide a vital depository in our Supreme Law Library. Be sure to bookmark and return often as we grow into a vital and essential Internet resource. Founder Paul Andrew Mitchell, an advanced systems development consultant for 35 years, has spent the past sixteen years since 1990 A.D. doing a detailed investigation of the United States Constitution, federal statute laws, and the important court cases. Writing under several pen names, Mitchell's work has reached all the way into the U.S. Supreme Court, which adopted "the federal zone" as a household word in their sweeping 1995 decision in U.S. v. Lopez. His massive book entitled "The Federal Zone: Cracking the Code of Internal Revenue" was first published in 1992, and became an instant underground success for its lucid language and indisputable legal authority. The Appendices are available, for free, right here. Mitchell has litigated important cases in State and federal courts, including the case of People v. Boxer, which established that the so-called Sixteenth Amendment was a massive fraud upon the American People. U.S. Senator Barbara Boxer fell totally silent in the face of Mitchell's pleadings in that case. He has also worked as Vice President for Legal Affairs and Counsel to an Arizona Trust, in a major confrontation with the federal government over tax administration policy, and as Counsel to a trespass and piracy victim whose legal strategy has attracted nationwide attention on the Internet. Mitchell is also the Private Attorney General in the case of People v. United States et al., filed in the Article III District Court of the United States ("DCUS") in Billings, Montana state. Mitchell's work blazed a courageous new trail, on first impression, in Gilbertson's OPENING BRIEF to the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals in St. Louis, Missouri. This masterpiece, in 50 pages, has now withstood the test of time and remains unchallenged, and without any known errors. Mitchell most recently re-focused his research on Title 28 -- the laws which govern the entire federal court system. His Press Release is an excellent introduction to this topic. In his copyright and trademark infringement case against AOL Time Warner, Inc. et al., Mitchell has forged a comprehensive foundation and nationwide strategy for lawfully restoring the Article III District Courts of the United States. His findings are fully documented in his OPENING BRIEF, delivered to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco on March 27, 2002 A.D. and his REPLY briefs. His PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI in that case was delivered to the Supreme Court of the United States on June 6, 2003 A.D. See also the companion PETITION FOR WRITS OF MANDAMUS in that case. Judging from the many compliments and positive comments we have received from numerous Internet users, we have every reason to expect that the Supreme Law Library will easily become an essential resource in your list of favorite digital libraries.

Re: Total Lack of Self-Awareness

That may be so. Certain Nazi sterilization programs required a court order. The most horrific acts can be cloaked with a clever argument. I make no such clever argument, but democracies are founded on persuasion, hence the ballot box and the jury box. Society must function in spite of errors, perfection is the enemy of good, etc. As long as policies fulfill a commonly agreed upon objective, is this not democracy in action?

Johnstone: A Society Is Only As Free As Its Most Troublesome Political Dissident - [FREEDOM]
by Zenaan Harkness 02 Sep '19

02 Sep '19

Johnstone has a real flair for apropos! "One of the greatest British rock musicians of all time" or rather one of the greatest rock musicians of all time. Doing a concert for Assange. For us all. For our rights and freedoms. And Johnstone nails it with, in hindsight, the obvious: "A society is only as free as its most troublesome dissident". And Julian Assange is surely that - the modern empire's most troublesome dissident, exposing many secrets that pain the empire to be reminded of, and which remind the masses in this our shared world of the evil of the current Western empire/regime. Thank you Johnstone. And thank you Julian Assange. We do not live in "a free society", and as Caitlin Johnstone states, "this is going to have to change". Peace, ----- Forwarded message from Caitlin Johnstone <donotreply(a)wordpress.com> ----- From: Caitlin Johnstone <donotreply(a)wordpress.com> Date: Mon, 2 Sep 2019 01:16:42 +0000 Subject: [New post] A Society Is Only As Free As Its Most Troublesome Political Dissident Post : A Society Is Only As Free As Its Most Troublesome Political Dissident URL : https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2019/09/02/a-society-is-only-as-free-as-its-mo… Posted : September 2, 2019 at 1:16 am Author : Caitlin Johnstone Tags : assange, empire, media, propaganda, Roger Waters Categories : Article, News You wouldn’t know it from any western mass media reporting as of this writing, but musician Roger Waters is about to perform the iconic Pink Floyd song "Wish You Were Here" ( https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2019/08/31/assa-s01.html ) in front of the office of British Home Secretary Priti Patel in order to draw attention to the persecution of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Earlier this year, billionaire Richard Branson staged a "Live Aid"-stye concert in Colombia near the Venezuela border with the purported goal of helping the Venezuelan people. In reality the stunt was nothing other than a ploy to advance the entirely false narratives ( https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2019/02/23/anyone-buying-this-venezuela-bullsh… ) that President Maduro was blockading bridges and turning away all foreign aid, and the funds raised ended up being embezzled ( https://www.rt.com/news/462175-guaido-aides-embezzled-aid/ ) by the Trump-backed regime change opposition group led by US puppet Juan Guaido ( https://consortiumnews.com/2019/01/29/the-making-of-juan-guaido-us-regime-c… ) . The British mass media, however, went absolutely bananas over the story. Each ( https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-47271182 ) word ( https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-47329806 ) in ( https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-47354754 ) this ( https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-47325201 ) sentence ( https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-47329806 ) is ( https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/feb/19/maduro-government-richard-bra… ) hyperlinked ( https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/feb/19/venezuelan-opposition-plans-d… ) to ( https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/feb/20/pink-floyd-roger-waters-conde… ) a ( https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6734005/Thousands-begin-arriving-R… ) different ( https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6708983/Richard-Branson-announces-… ) story ( https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6720815/Venezuela-President-Nicola… ) about ( https://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/news/world/richard-branson-stages-live-ai… ) the ( https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/02/23/nicolas-maduro-orders-colombian… ) concert ( https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2019/02/19/richard-branson-nicolas-maduro-… ) from ( https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/8474687/what-is-richard-bransons-venezuela-ai… ) mass ( https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/venezuela-aid-live-concer… ) media ( https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/venezuela-crisis-richard-… ) outlets ( https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1091560/venezuela-latest-nicolas-madur… ) in ( https://www.dailymail.co.uk/video/news/video-1864044/Sir-Richard-Branson-la… ) the ( https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/violent-clashes-venezuela-border-s… ) UK ( https://www.express.co.uk/news/world/1090882/venezuela-latest-us-forces-rus… ) alone ( https://www.ft.com/content/21d2e9a8-364e-11e9-bd3a-8b2a211d90d5 ) . And that was a concert on the other side of the planet, while the Assage event is happening right in London, in front of the office of a prominent British official, featuring one of the greatest British rock musicians of all time. This discrepancy tells you everything you need to know about the so-called "free press" in western society, and indeed about western society itself. > Russian media are covering it. Turkish media are covering it... Where's Western media? #FreeASSANGE ( https://twitter.com/hashtag/FreeASSANGE?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw ) https://t.co/uo1Rzr61ob > > — 𝐣𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐚 (@jaraparilla) September 1, 2019 ( https://twitter.com/jaraparilla/status/1168269460173553665?ref_src=twsrc%5E… ) A society is only as free as its most troublesome political dissident, which today means that you are only as free as Julian Assange. As long as you live in a society which can give rise to a coordinated multi-governmental campaign to lock up a journalist for the rest of his life ( https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2019/05/24/how-many-times-must-assange-be-prov… ) based on bogus charges ( https://medium.com/@caityjohnstone/debunking-all-the-assange-smears-a549fd6… ) because he exposed US war crimes, you are not free, and you should not agree to pretend that you are. The old saying "actions speak louder than words" resonates with people because words can lie while actions cannot. And while the millionaire pundits of the billionaire media continually assure us with their words that we live in a free society, the actions of the people who wield official and unofficial power over us tell us that we actually live in a society which tortures ( https://medium.com/@njmelzer/demasking-the-torture-of-julian-assange-b252ff… ) and imprisons dissident journalists for telling inconvenient truths. The persecution of Julian Assange tells us so much more about our society than the authorized narratives we're sold: The persecution of Julian Assange tells us about the real function of the mass media. The discrepancy between the news media coverage of the Assange benefit event and Richard Branson's regime change propaganda party are just one of many, many examples we could discuss about the way those outlets reliably slant their coverage ( https://medium.com/@caityjohnstone/how-to-make-sense-of-foreign-protests-co… ) in favor of agendas which just so happen to align with the interests of the CIA and the US State Department. Every time Assange's plight makes headlines, social media lights up with ambitious blue-checkmarked media aspirants posting snarky quips about him in an attempt to show the operators of the billionaire media just how far they'll go to defend the status quo. We are told with words that the mass media are here to tell us the truth about what's going on in the world, but we are told with actions the exact opposite. The persecution of Julian Assange tells us about the mechanics of empire. Assange was pried out of the embassy and imprisoned by an extremely obvious collaboration ( https://medium.com/@caityjohnstone/the-legal-narrative-funnel-thats-being-u… ) between the US, UK, Sweden, Ecuador, and Australia, yet they each pretended that they were acting as separate, sovereign nations completely independently of one another. Sweden pretended it was deeply concerned about rape allegations, the UK pretended it was deeply concerned about a bail violation, Ecuador pretended it was deeply concerned about skateboarding and embassy cat hygiene, the US pretended it was deeply concerned about the particulars of the way Assange helped Chelsea Manning cover her tracks, Australia pretended it was too deeply concerned about honoring the sovereign affairs of these other countries to intervene on behalf of its citizen, and it all converged in a way that just so happens to look exactly the same as imprisoning a journalist for publishing facts. You see this same dynamic constantly, whether it’s with military interventions, trade deals, or narrative-shaping campaigns against non-aligned governments. The persecution of Julian Assange tells us about the kind of society we actually live in. We are inundated from early childhood with feel-good slogans about freedom and democracy, which we are told must be spread to everyone on earth as forcefully as necessary even if we have to kill every last one of them. In reality we live in a society made of lies and led by liars, who violently persecute anyone who exposes the truth. These people are your oppressors. These people are your prison wardens. Their sneering faces tell you that you are free from behind prison bars, and that they'll end you if you disagree. This is going to have to change. https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EDaWEr2UEAADp36?format=png&name=small _________________________ The best way to get around the internet censors and make sure you see the stuff I publish is to subscribe to the mailing list for my website ( http://caitlinjohnstone.com/ ) , which will get you an email notification for everything I publish.

Trump's communism
by Punk 01 Sep '19

01 Sep '19

One of the means that murderous jew marx wanted to use in order to gain absolute power for him and his accomplcies was "Centralisation of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly." Such banks do exist today of course, and are known as 'central banks'. It easily follows that supporters of central banking are supporters of 'national' communism. Now, what does the orange monkey aka trump cunt say about central banking? "Trump hits the Fed again, says 'small rate cut' is not enough" https://www.cnbc.com/2019/07/29/trump-hits-the-fed-again-ahead-of-rate-deci… So not only the trmp cunt supports central banking(duh!) but he wants the bank to do as much damage as possible and to steal as much money as possible - money that goes to trump and his cronies, i.e. the governmetn and corporations. ps: and that's just ONE of the many ways in which the trump cunt his robot-followers endorse and support communism.
