"Supreme Court Dictatorship in America"
|
||
|
|
( by Don Bell, _The CDL Report_, Issue 129, June 1990 )</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> The conditioning of the people by the brainwashers has been beyond
|
||
|
|
comparison. The Socialist Nations of Western Europe and the Communist
|
||
|
|
Nations of Eastern Europe are merging, as planned, into one great Regional
|
||
|
|
World Government. The comparatively free and wealth United States of America
|
||
|
|
and the basketcase Union of Soviet Socialist Republics are converging
|
||
|
|
economically and otherwise through most favored trade, aid, educational,
|
||
|
|
social and financial alliances. And while the captive peoples of the
|
||
|
|
Communist countries are given the semblance of freedom and conditional
|
||
|
|
independence, the people of the United States are losing their freedom
|
||
|
|
and independence, their standard of living, their republican form of
|
||
|
|
government and their right to worship as their fathers worshipped. Most
|
||
|
|
recent example of the latter is less than a month old. But the moguls
|
||
|
|
that manage the media have kept the news off their satellites and out
|
||
|
|
of their daily and weekly columns to such an extent that few have heard
|
||
|
|
of the Judicial Tyranny committed by five un-elected rulers we call
|
||
|
|
Supreme Court Justices.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> On Wednesday, April 18, 1990, the Supreme Court killed our United States
|
||
|
|
Constitution. The coup de grace was a simple but fatal action whose reaction
|
||
|
|
is yet to be felt. The Court decreed that federal judges have the authority
|
||
|
|
to order state and municipal elected officials to raise taxes, and to issue
|
||
|
|
injunctions preventing laws and State Constitutions from being used to do
|
||
|
|
anything about it. A Constitutional expert tells us that by this decree
|
||
|
|
the Supreme Court has abolished the representative form of government at
|
||
|
|
the state and local level and along with it nullified the US and State
|
||
|
|
Constitutions, "California's Proposition 13, supply-side economics,
|
||
|
|
federalism, the separation of powers and the national tax-limitation and
|
||
|
|
balanced-budget amendment movement." Quoted remark was by Paul Craig Roberts,
|
||
|
|
professor of political economy at the Center for Strategic & International
|
||
|
|
Studies in Washington. He explains: "Elected legislators and the people
|
||
|
|
to whom they are accountable no longer have control over the power of the
|
||
|
|
purse, or the quantity and quality of public expenditures. The Court's
|
||
|
|
ruling ... transfers all meaningful governmental power to the federal
|
||
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
||
|
|
judiciary. It will take some time for judicial tyranny to become fully
|
||
|
|
^^^^^^^^^
|
||
|
|
manifest, but the process for establishing judicial rule is now in place.
|
||
|
|
Unless we revolt, we have lost our freedom." (Emphasis was added).</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> In common Americanese, this is what happened. A federal judge believed
|
||
|
|
that racial desegregation in the Kansas City, Mo. public school system was
|
||
|
|
not up to the standard set by federal judges. On that pretext he gave
|
||
|
|
orders for an extravagant school improvement plan that would cost an
|
||
|
|
estimated $260 million, to include high schools with air-conditioned
|
||
|
|
classrooms, an alarm system and 15 microcomputers, a 2000-square-foot
|
||
|
|
planetarium, greenhouses and vivariums, a 25-acre farm with an air-conditioned
|
||
|
|
meeting room accommodating 104 persons, a model United Nations wired for
|
||
|
|
language translations, broadcast-capable radio and television studios with
|
||
|
|
an editing and animation lab, a temperature-controlled art galley, movie
|
||
|
|
editing and screening rooms, dust free diesel mechanics rooms, 1875-square-foot elementary animals rooms for a zoo project, and swimming pools. Not
|
||
|
|
only that, but the federal judge ordered that magnet schools be built
|
||
|
|
throughout the school district at the additional estimated price of $200
|
||
|
|
million. This nearly half a billion dollars was not to be spent to
|
||
|
|
better educate students, just to make them more comfortable while
|
||
|
|
enjoying extra-curricular activities.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> The school board, the State Legislature and the people who would have to
|
||
|
|
pay for the improvements, were shocked. They didn't have that kind of money
|
||
|
|
for such a purpose, and the federal judge had no right or authority to issue
|
||
|
|
such an order. They pointed out that the power of taxation is a power that
|
||
|
|
the federal judiciary does not possess. Only elected legislative bodies
|
||
|
|
have such power. So affirms the US Constitution, State Constitutions, and
|
||
|
|
common sense derived from "taxation without representation" cries that
|
||
|
|
helped start a revolutionary war. So, the federal judge demanding and the
|
||
|
|
state and local elected authorities refusing, the case went to the US
|
||
|
|
Supreme Court.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> By a vote of 5-to-4 the Supreme Court ruled that federal judges do have
|
||
|
|
the power of the public purse; Constitutions, state laws, county and
|
||
|
|
municipal ordinances to the contrary notwithstanding. The five traitors,
|
||
|
|
mark them well, were Byron R. White, William J. Brennan, Thurgood Marshall,
|
||
|
|
Harry A. Blackmun and John Paul Stevens. The other four Justices were
|
||
|
|
powerfully and vocally opposed to the decree, but they were a minority.
|
||
|
|
Justice Anthony M. Kennedy was supported by Chief Justice William H. Rhenquist,
|
||
|
|
Sandra Day O'Connor and Antonin Scalia, in warning that "Today's casual
|
||
|
|
embrace of taxation imposed by the unelected, life-tenured federal
|
||
|
|
judiciary disregards fundamental precepts for the democratic control of
|
||
|
|
public institutions... [The Court's] assertion of judicial power in one of
|
||
|
|
the most sensitive of policy areas, that of involving taxation, begins a
|
||
|
|
process that over time could threaten fundamental alterations of the form
|
||
|
|
of government our Constitution embodies ... The power of taxation is one
|
||
|
|
that the federal judiciary does not possess." Quoting Judge Robert Bork
|
||
|
|
(remember him?) to back up his sentiments, Professor Roberts (op.cit.)
|
||
|
|
warned: "As a result of the court's ruling, anyone who continues to hold
|
||
|
|
municipal bonds or real property -- including their homes -- would be
|
||
|
|
foolish, because federal judges can now wreck the tax base of any state
|
||
|
|
or municipality and destroy real estate values by running up property taxes.
|
||
|
|
It is possible that the American people won't accept the usurpation of
|
||
|
|
power by the judiciary, which in effect turns our legislative bodies into
|
||
|
|
a cloak for judicial tyranny. However, so far they have accepted everything
|
||
|
|
else -- routine release of dangerous criminals, destruction of neighborhood
|
||
|
|
schools, busing of their children, racial quotas in university administrations
|
||
|
|
and work-places. We have become an effete people since the time our
|
||
|
|
ancestors condemned King George III 'for imposing taxes on us without
|
||
|
|
consent' and for taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable
|
||
|
|
Laws, and altering fundamentally the forms of our Government."</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> There is one hope of defeating this judicial tyranny. The April 28th issue
|
||
|
|
of _Human Events_ which we have just received as we write this Report,
|
||
|
|
contains the following information:</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> "In the wake of the Supreme Court's astonishing 5-to-4 decision
|
||
|
|
that says federal judges may order local governments to increase
|
||
|
|
taxes... Sen. Gordon Humphrey (R-NH) thinks he can make headway
|
||
|
|
with S-34, the _Judicial_Taxation_Prohibition_Act_. The measure
|
||
|
|
which had 10 co-sponsors before the decision, would flatly
|
||
|
|
prevent judges from compelling state or local authorities to
|
||
|
|
impose new taxes or raise old ones... Humphrey's bill is now
|
||
|
|
the only vehicle available to block further judicial tax tyranny."</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> As serious as was this granting to un-elected federal judges the power to
|
||
|
|
tax, an equally important decision had previously been handed down by the
|
||
|
|
Court in regard to the Fourth Amendment's protection against search and
|
||
|
|
seizure. The Amendment states "The right of the people to be secure in
|
||
|
|
their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches
|
||
|
|
and seizures, shall not be violated..." But the present treasonous Supreme
|
||
|
|
Court disagreed. The excuse for making it easier for police to search and
|
||
|
|
seize people's private property and papers was probably the so-called drug
|
||
|
|
war. But the intent also made it easier to seize and confiscate guns.
|
||
|
|
Anti-gun legislation is not popular; so why not just stage a raid, seize
|
||
|
|
and confiscate whatever weapons citizens might have with which to defend
|
||
|
|
themselves? Weakening the Fourth also could nullify the Second Amendment.
|
||
|
|
So, in a case possibly designed for just such purpose, the Court "gave police
|
||
|
|
broad new (and unconstitutional) authority to conduct sweeping searches in
|
||
|
|
private homes," said an article appearing in the _Amarillo Daily News_ of
|
||
|
|
Marcy 2, 1990. The article said: "The Court decreed that police may search
|
||
|
|
throughout a house when they have a reasonable suspicion there is a hidden
|
||
|
|
danger to the arresting officers, even if the arresting authorities are
|
||
|
|
interested in knowing how this violation of the Fourth Amendment works in
|
||
|
|
actual practice, then consider the Franklin Sanders case. A small army
|
||
|
|
of various types of officers, all supposedly raiding in behalf of the IRS,
|
||
|
|
invaded the Sanders home, arrested and jailed Franklin and his wife,
|
||
|
|
isolated, tried unsuccessfully to intimidate and harass their children
|
||
|
|
for hours. Being Christian children they were made of stern stuff. They
|
||
|
|
confiscated all of Franklin's papers and computer ware. The officers also
|
||
|
|
arrested the Pastor and Elders of the Presbyterian Church where the Sanders
|
||
|
|
family worships. Undaunted and praising God for his ability to continue in
|
||
|
|
his calling, he's out on bail ($100000). This one-out-of-scores of
|
||
|
|
examples of how totalitarian tactics are being employed in the United States
|
||
|
|
should awaken everyone to the dangers facing Christian American families in
|
||
|
|
this "era of merging."</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> This Supreme Court's decision amending the Fourth's protection against
|
||
|
|
search and seizure is doubly dangerous because it tends to "legalize" a law
|
||
|
|
passed by the Oklahoma Legislature and signed by Governor Bellman. An
|
||
|
|
Oklahoma patriot, Margie M. Martin, of Texhoma, OK, has been fighting this
|
||
|
|
law, almost single handedly because the media, even the supposedly
|
||
|
|
conservative media, fail to give her the support she deserves. This is a
|
||
|
|
law (House Bill 1750) that makes every item owned by every Oklahoma citizen
|
||
|
|
taxable. It also provides that officers may enter a home and check and
|
||
|
|
record every item (including guns, of course) in the house. We haven't a
|
||
|
|
copy of this 96 page bill, but _The Christian World Report_ of May 16, 1989,
|
||
|
|
gave an excellent report which we copy.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> "The citizens must provide a list of all their possessions
|
||
|
|
to the government. This list must include everything from
|
||
|
|
watches to farm tractors. Citizens who fail to give the
|
||
|
|
list are paid a visit by a government agent. If denied
|
||
|
|
entry to the citizen's residence, the government agent
|
||
|
|
later returns with a warrant, enters the home and compiles
|
||
|
|
the list. Is this country the Soviet Union or the Peoples
|
||
|
|
Republic of China? No, it is Oklahoma in 1991. In the
|
||
|
|
last legislative session, House Bill 1750 was passed by
|
||
|
|
the state legislature and signed into law by the governor...
|
||
|
|
The measure goes into effect January 1, 1991. The law reads:</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> "On or before January 1st of each year, the Oklahoma
|
||
|
|
Tax Commission shall prescribe for the use of tax
|
||
|
|
assessors, suitable bank forms for the listing and
|
||
|
|
assessing of all property, both real and personal.
|
||
|
|
These forms will then be furnished to the taxpayer
|
||
|
|
for listing all personal property. From January 1
|
||
|
|
through the end of February, the country assessor
|
||
|
|
must set up a temporary office in each town in the
|
||
|
|
county for a minimum of one day each to allow the
|
||
|
|
taxpayer to submit the list. The assessor must
|
||
|
|
then be present at the county seat from March 1
|
||
|
|
through March 15 to receive lists not turned in
|
||
|
|
at the temporary offices. Personal property, for
|
||
|
|
the purposes of ad valorem taxation, includes:
|
||
|
|
All goods, chattels and effects: -- All horses,
|
||
|
|
cattle, mules, asses, sheep, swine, goats and
|
||
|
|
other livestock; -- All household furniture,
|
||
|
|
including gold and silver plate, musical instruments,
|
||
|
|
watches and jewelry; -- All wagons, vehicles, or
|
||
|
|
carriages and all farm tractors, implements or
|
||
|
|
machinery; -- Personal, private, or professional
|
||
|
|
libraries; -- All other property having an actual,
|
||
|
|
constructive, or taxable status. Taxpayers failing
|
||
|
|
to provide the list will be visited by the assessor.
|
||
|
|
Prior to entering the premises of any taxpayer for
|
||
|
|
purposes of discovering household personal property
|
||
|
|
located within a commercial place of business, the
|
||
|
|
county assessor or deputy shall request permission
|
||
|
|
to enter the premises and shall state the reason for
|
||
|
|
the inspection. If access to the premises is denied,
|
||
|
|
the county assessor or deputy shall be required to
|
||
|
|
obtain a search warrant in order to conduct an
|
||
|
|
inspection of the interior of the premises. A
|
||
|
|
search warrant may be obtained upon a showing of
|
||
|
|
probable cause ... Property not previously listed,
|
||
|
|
or undervalued, will result in a penalty of up to
|
||
|
|
20% of the value of the property. At least once
|
||
|
|
every four years, the assessor must physically
|
||
|
|
inspect all real property in the county'."</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> "H.B. 1750 is a cleverly contrived piece of legislation that I believe was
|
||
|
|
put together by other than Oklahoma Legislators," said Margie Martin. We
|
||
|
|
agree. Who needs the registration of weapons if the authorities, under the
|
||
|
|
guise of property evaluation, can enter your home, inspect all of your
|
||
|
|
personal possessions, having a "reasonable suspicion" that you did not
|
||
|
|
declare certain items, like firearms? This is the case in Oklahoma, and
|
||
|
|
similar legislation is being introduced in other state legislatures. A
|
||
|
|
respected subscriber and correspondent, Dr. Harry Walkup of Worton, MD, wrote:</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> "We are living in troubled times in which the Keynesian/Fabian,
|
||
|
|
Socialist, Power-Centralizing Revolutionary Strategy is being
|
||
|
|
imposed on us, with its financial policies designed to progressively
|
||
|
|
destroy individual economic, political and cultural independence.
|
||
|
|
This can only be accompolished if our firearms are confiscated..."</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Under firearms registration the complete confiscation of weapons would be
|
||
|
|
difficult and costly. But with the death of the Constitution and its Bill
|
||
|
|
of Rights, plus Judicial Tyranny and Totalitarian Legislation, weapons could
|
||
|
|
be confiscated from law-abiding citizens, making slaves of us all. When
|
||
|
|
situations change, plans may also change:</p>
|
||
|
|
<p> "And He said unto them (His disciples), When I sent you without
|
||
|
|
purse, scrip and shoes, lacked ye anything? And they said, Nothing.
|
||
|
|
Then He said unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him
|
||
|
|
take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let
|
||
|
|
him sell his garment, and buy one." ( Luke 22:3536 ).</p>
