Advancing the ideas of freedom, liberty and non-aggression

Fascist Tyranny Reinstated

A New York federal judge, Raymond Lohier, has overruled U.S. District Judge Katherine Forrest, who had ruled against the section of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2012 that “legally” allows the executive branch to detain American citizens indefinitely  without any due process of law. Lohier’s ruling temporarily blocks the earlier ruling of Forrest.

This of course pleased the U.S. “Justice” Department and Obama, as the belief of this agency and the president is that the executive has a right under the Constitution to detain anyone indefinitely without benefit of evidence, charge, or trial. That thinking is atrocious, and is an affront to the idea of freedom and liberty. Obama had stated recently that Judge Forrest’s ruling against the NDAA was unconstitutional, so this administration obviously has no use for liberty.

Lohier gave no explanation whatsoever for his position, but that should come as no surprise, as the judiciary in this country is corrupt at most every level.

Most will argue that the Constitution protects us from this due to the language in the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments, but that is simply not true. If it were, we would never have lost most all our rights over the past 200 years or so. Lysander Spooner put it best when he said:

But whether the Constitution really be one thing or another, this much is certain – that it has either authorized such a government as we have had, or has been powerless to prevent it. In either case, it is unfit to exist.

The Constitution has never protected our natural rights, and in my opinion, was never meant to do so. (See my articles about the Constitution under my articles tab) The powers given to the federal government in the Constitution are broad and almost unlimited. This was accomplished by Hamilton and his followers, and by design. History tells a different story than what most of us were taught in the government controlled schools.

That the NDAA is one of the most dangerous threats to civil liberty cannot be questioned, as nothing is more dangerous to liberty than the “right” of government to disappear any citizen who questions its authority. The elected president and those so-called representatives of the people, have done nothing but destroy any semblance of freedom, and continue to either draft legislation or pronounce law through executive orders that harm us all.

The executive branch of government now has the power to indefinitely detain any American citizen without any due process, has the “legal” power to disappear them, to torture them, to rendition them, and to assassinate them. What other power is necessary in order for the government to have total control over this nation and all its inhabitants? The answer to that question should be clear to any who still retain the ability to think!
