Ron Paul Campaign Under Cyber Attack

The recently reported spam emails that are believed to originate from a botnet do the Ron Paul campaign direct harm not good.

by Michael McDonnough
(Libertarian)

There has been a recent flurry of news articles (click here and here and here and here) that have made the conjecture that the Ron Paul campaign or his supporters are in possession of a botnet and are using it to generate spam emails for the candidate. I have been in the business of computer technology for a long time and have good friends in the IT security business and we have discussed this at length. Cui-bono (who benefits)

I find it far more likely that this botnet spam attack is not the design of the Paul campaign or any of its supporters. It is far more likely that this is the release of a first round of direct cyber attack against the Ron Paul campaign. I base this opinion on the fact that the attack is becoming clearly targeted at the youtube videos of Ron Paul. Youtube links to his videos are beginning to be inserted into the the body of these spam message and as a direct result the video's are being pulled by youtube for violation of their terms of use policy.

David-Hatch Bernier (Elaine's Son) Reports That Petition Site Was "Hacked"

We talked to David-Hatch Bernier for the first time today on the phone. He is very concerned about his mother and is very interested in doing whatever we can - in a positive way - to help expand the "court of public opinion" in support of the cause of freedom, liberty and justice in America.

While we were talking David explained how the Yahoo.com email address he created to register for the petition has been hacked/deleted which means that he has no way of moderating/approving of the signatories. Apparently some individuals have been abusing the system to leave negative remarks against his mother and Ed, etc.

David is in the process of creating a new petition account and will be posting/sharing it soon. We will be advising that people sign the new petition because the old petition - see below - cannot post names and comments as the signatories remain "pending approval" because of this problem.

APOSTLES OF PAUL

On the hometown turf of Clinton and Giuliani, EDWARD-ISAAC DOVERE has found a small but determined group who support the quixotic candidacy of Ron Paul.

By Edward-Isaac Dovere

Avery Knapp is a 28 year-old lanky, blond radiologist originally from Rancho Palos Verdes, Calif., in the last year of his residency at Lenox Hill. He is not the guy always talking politics in high school, nor the guy long drawn to iconoclastic ideology—always a conservative, he thinks he voted for Bob Dole in 1996 and knows he picked George W. Bush in 2000 and 2004. He is a committed Republican. But he never thought to vote in a primary or care much about who did.

Knapp found Ron Paul this spring while sitting in his girlfriend’s apartment in Chicago, on a week of vacation. He was surfing the web during a study break, researching monetary policy for his father. Articles about inflation and the federal reserve led him to Give Me a Break, John Stossell’s libertarian polemic, and Freedom to Fascism, a documentary by Aaron Russo in which Paul says there is “a possibility” that the private bankers of Fort Knox could have taken control of America’s wealth.

CAN YOU SAY "FRAUD?"

The following are documented exhibits of fraud presented by Bill Price and published by the NJCDLP –“Whistleblowers”. These exhibits are irrefutable proof that the IRS uses fraud to coerce and intimidate “individuals”. These exhibits also demonstrate that employers, e.g. Ford Motor Co., through corrupt agents like Senior Tax Attorney Tim McGraw, are complicit in an obvious fraud/scam perpetrated by the IRS.

The first two exhibits are letters in response to inquiries made by the victims of a scam perpetrated by an alleged IRS Operations Manager “Stephen P. Warner”. These letters were written by Michael E. Schmidt and David & Gesila Cates, to IRS disclosure officers under the Freedom of Information Act. The letters reveal that “Stephen P. Warner” is not an employee of the IRS. Read more here.

Sherry Jackson Trial - Recounted by Court Observer

Written by djahn
Wednesday, 31 October 2007

Fred Marashall was kind enough to author the following after leaving Sherry's trial.

Tuesday evening, October 30, 2007

This is a sad day. I presume most people know by now that Sherry was convicted of all four counts of WFTF by a mind-numbed indoctrinated jury of the kind of people we walk among every day. I left the courthouse at 5:20 and drove 100 miles to Columbus, Georgia and took my son out for dinner. I will write my account and impressions before I read anyone else's comments.

At the end of the court days on Monday and Tuesday I called Mark Yannone and David Jahn and gave them brief comments on my observations.

Let me begin by creating a mental vision of the setting. The trial was held in Judge Orenda D. Evans' Courtroom 1908, on the 19th Floor of the Richard B. Russell Federal Building in Atlanta. The building is a vulgar, massive, cavernous 26-story monument to federal power. I couldn't help but compare it with the palaces Saddam Hussein built to flaunt his power. Read more.

Jury Nullification

Below is an excerpt from http://www.fija.org/ (click on number 3. for the full text). This is dynamite, and needs to be spread far and wide. [Our Founders described jury nullification as "the last defense against tyranny".]

State Language on Jury Nullification

Citizens Must Claim Rights: Founders Gave Juries the Right to Determine Law

Some say jury nullification is the most practical way to stop the juggernaut police state.

By Tom Stahl

The Washington Post published a front page story entitled, “In Jury Rooms, a Form of Civil Protest Grows,” last year. According to the Post article, jurors are not always following judges’ instructions to the letter.

The article recounted that sometimes in jury trials, when those facts which the judge chooses to allow into evidence indicate that the defendant broke the law, jurors look at the facts quite differently from the way the judge instructed them to. The jurors do not say, “On the basis of these facts the defendant is guilty.’’
Instead, the jurors say, “On the basis of these facts the law is wrong,” and they vote to acquit. Or, they may vote to acquit because they believe that the law is being unjustly applied, or because some government conduct in the case has been so egregious that they cannot reward it with a conviction.

In short, a passion for justice invades the jury room. The jurors begin judging the law and the government, as well as the facts, and they render their verdict according to conscience. This is called jury nullification.

Dr. Jack Kevorkian, recently convicted, was acquitted several times in the past, despite his admission of the government’s facts, of assisting the suicide of terminally ill patients who wanted to die. Those acquittals were probably due to jury nullification. And Kevorkian might have been acquitted again if the
trial judge had allowed him to present his evidence, testimony of the deceased’s relatives, to the jury. Acorollary of jury nullification is greater latitude for the jury to hear all of the evidence.

The Post took a dim view of this and suggested that jury nullification is an aberration, a kind of unintended and unwanted side-effect of our constitutional system of letting juries decide cases. But the Post couldn’t be more wrong. Far from being an unintended side-effect, jury nullification is explicitly
authorized in the constitutions of 24 states.

ALL CRIMINAL CASES
The constitutions of Maryland, Indiana, Oregon, and Georgia currently have provisions guaranteeing the right of jurors to “judge” or “determine” the law in “all criminal cases.”...

The TASER Police State

According to Ed, he was tasered multiple times during his arrest. I have no reason to doubt him. I'm wondering how often tasers are used in prisons.


Query: after the first death as a result of tasering by law enforcement, why were tasers not banned from use by law enforcement? There have been dozens of deaths, and yet tasering continues. The TASER (Thomas A. Swift's Electric Rifle) is a barbaric tool...and being completely misused by some Peace Officers.


It's important to remember that those people who died were innocent; in this country, one is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. At least, it used to be that way.


I've seen video clips of people being tasered while in handcuffs, or while two or three officers were holding a person on the ground. People have been tasered for not getting out of their vehicles, or not moving fast enough when an officer says "jump". This whole thing is out of hand. Police now routinely use the TASER in cases where they would not use a firearm or a baton.

The ethical questions involved are significant. Some folks claim that those who died did so because they were not healthy enough to survive the weapon...weak heart, etc. That's exactly why the thing should be banned. Others say it is preferable to lethal weapons (apparently they ignore the fact that about 200 people have died after being tasered); but in addition to it being barbaric, the problem with the TASER is that it is routinely being used in situations where an officer would NOT use a firearm or even a baton---and there appears to be much less accountability for misuse as compared to misuse of the baton or pistol.


No one should ever be tasered unless that person actually is attacking an officer or another person with deadly force. The militarized police need to take stock of their methods. Many of them appear to be treating every civilian as an "enemy combatant", not as an individual with unalienable rights. Who is providing oversight?


Next will be the tasering of folks involved in peaceful civil disobedience and not threatening officers in any way. That's when even the uninformed should know for certain that we now live in a Police State.


I'm hoping that people will complain to their local governments and protest the arming of Peace Officers with these barbaric weapons.

Comment From David Jahn (Triallogs.com) About Sherry's Trial

I have received calls from folks that attended the trail. I'm led to believe there were fatal errors made by the defense. I'll wait until I hear from others before posting more on the case. This is very disappointing, and I'm sure devastating for Sherry. Once again the law wasn't on trial. I get the impression the government won once again by portraying Sherry as someone who just didn't want to pay her fair share of taxes. Juries continue to buy that crap.

If this is supposed to be a democracy and we are guaranteed rights, how can those rights be so unforgivably taken from us? This couple deserves to be freed and given back their home and assets and never have to pay the IRS again!! I truly cannot believe this story. It has made me sooo upset and I'm not even involved. My prayers are with the Brown's!

1242. Rick James

Our government is to serve us, the people, not the other way around. We the people have a Constitutional right to see the specific law. If the law cannot be produced, then the Brown's should be released and all assets returned to them. Failing to produce a law is a violation of their rights against false imprisonment.

Sherry Jackson Has Something Common With Senator Mike Gravel and Congressman Ron Paul: They All Can't Find The Law

Interviewer gives a copy of Aaron Russo’s movie, America: Freedom To Fascism (AFTF) to Senator Gravel while saying:

“This is a film by Aaron Russo, it’s called America: Freedom To Fascism….it addresses the income tax and I know that….”

Senator Gravel: “Oh great. Ok great. What’s this one now?”

Interviewer repeats himself: “It’s called America: Freedom To Fascism, the guy who wrote…did you ever see the film Trading Places with Eddie Murphy and Dan Aykroyd.…the producer of that he’s now put his effort in that because he’s sees how much…..”

Senator Gravel: “Unbelievable ripoff. What we have done with the income tax is so corrupt. I was on the [Senate] finance committee for 8 years. The code is that high [holds his hand/arm up at waist level] and nobody understands what the hell it says.”

Congressman Ron Paul Cannot Find the Law Either!!

View clip beginning at 2:00 min (left) mark:



Aaron Russo: “Is there a law that requires people to file a 1040?”

Ron Paul: “Not explicitly but it’s certainly implied.”

Aaron Russo: “Well implied by force, but is there a law?”

Ron Paul: “I cannot site a law….I cannot. But…you know…if they think it’s the law and they have all the guns….you know it’s an authoritarian approach.”

Aaron Russo: “But that’s authoritarianism.”

Ron Paul: “Yea (yes)”.

Aaron Russo: “That’s not a country run by law.”

Sherry Jackson Trial Update: Guilty

Former IRS agent convicted of failing to pay taxes
Stone Mountain woman testifies she believes she wasn't required to file returns

By BILL RANKIN
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Published on: 10/30/07

Sherry Peel Jackson, a former IRS revenue agent and certified public accountant, told a federal jury Tuesday she was sure she did not have to file income tax returns.

But after less than 30 minutes of deliberations, the jury convicted Jackson of failing to file income tax returns from 2000 through 2004. The Stone Mountain woman faces a maximum of four years in prison. She will be sentenced early next year.

Jackson, 45, did not fit the typical profile of a criminal defendant. She worked for as an revenue agent from 1988 to 1995 and then worked as an accountant, at one time landing a state contract to audit day care centers.

But in July 2000, Jackson testified, she began to question whether she had to pay income taxes. By the next year, she decided she was not going to file a tax return.

Why Ron Paul Matters

Those of you who know me as a supporter of Rudy Giuliani's presidential aspirations might be surprised to see that I am praising Ron Paul. While I do not support his candidacy, I think that he is an important presence in the GOP and has pushed the party to do a lot of soul-searching in the wake of its 2006 drubbing. His strict libertarianism and great reverence for the Constitution make him one of the best defenders of limited government and individual liberty in Congress. Read more.

A Letter From Elaine Brown

Dear Fred:

It was so good to hear from you, even though the news about Ed's mistreatment was so bad. I can't believe what they have done to him. Thank goodness Shaun has been able to get the word out. Ed and I have still not been able to write to each other. Special permission is needed to write to someone in another prison. My counselor emailed the paperwork over a week ago, but permission has not yet come through. He says they are being really slow. I guess we know why. I am really worried about him. I pray for his safety. And for Yahweh to open the hearts of the oppressors that they may come to the light.

I was also on solitude watch for the first day, but I was clothed in prison garb and was not mistreated. I am ok physically and spiritually and am accepting of my situation.

Remember what Ed and I did was and is for freedom and justice and for a return of the righteous Republic. We knew this would happen but our goals were more important than our own safety. Everyone must carry on the fight in our absence. And we pray the day will come when we can rejoin the fight.

Thank you for your money order, Fred. We cannot receive money ourselves. There is an address online to send money to our accounts. Here in Danbury we have to buy everything - soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, some clothing, etc. and it's all very expensive. It even costs $2 if we request a doctor's appointment.

Please feel free to broadcast anything I write you unless I state otherwise. Also, please stay in communication - it's the only way I know what's happening. Please thank John for keeping the show going and thanks to you and Tim also.

Yahweh's will be done.

Elaine.

GOVERNMENT COLLAPSES CASE – TRIAL SPEEDS AHEAD
October 29, 2007 ATLANTA, GA

Today, the trial of former IRS Revenue Agent and CPA, Sherry Peel Jackson commenced with the government charging ahead with its four count information of willful failure to file at the Richard B. Russell Federal Courthouse by eliminating a host of its estimated 17 witnesses down to only three and presenting then wrapping up its case before 3:30PM.

The Jury selection process took place at approximately 9:30AM and by around 12:40PM the pool of 35 prospective jurors were sorted by the respective counsel and the panel of 12 jurors and one alternate. The empanelled jury consists of white, black and Hispanic men and women.

The government called three witnesses to the stand to make its case. Debbie Fitzpatrick, an IRS Revenue Agent, hired at the same time and attended the same training classes as Sherry Jackson testified to the general aspects of job responsibilities and the training phases she had attended with Ms. Jackson.

Next on the stand was Ms. Marion Cameron, a shareholder in Cameron, Miles and Jackson, PC, a corporation formed after Ms. Jackson had landed a lucrative state contract involving the auditing of state-run day care centers. Ms. Cameron testified to the amounts of gross receipts earned by each shareholder. Read more here.

Trial Update, Day 1 - October 29, 2007

Jury selection was completed after the fortunate candidates were vetted by a standard battery of questions designed to identify those most likely to have an informed opinion about this kind of case. IRS employees and their family members, anyone who had ever had an income tax problem, and radical members of any organization that supports the United States Constitution were not going to be allowed on this jury. The ideal juror was one who had never really thought about this subject much, and wasn't likely to either.

Opening statements were uneventful, except that defense attorney Larry Becraft was able to make his 20- to 25-minute opening remarks without objection, leading one observer to remark that he thought this trial was being guided by the hand of God.

More On HR 1955: The Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007

Excerpts from: Lee Rodgers 10/25/07

The U.S. House of Representatives recently passed HR 1955 titled the Violent Radicalization and Homegrown Terrorism Prevention Act of 2007. This bill is one of the most blatant attacks against the Constitution yet and actually defines thought crimes as homegrown terrorism. If passed into law, it will also establish a commission and a Center of Excellence to study and defeat so called thought criminals. Unlike previous anti-terror legislation, this bill specifically targets the civilian population of the United States and uses vague language to define homegrown terrorism. Amazingly, 404 of our elected representatives from both the Democrat and Republican parties voted in favor of this bill. There is little doubt that this bill is specifically targeting the growing patriot community that is demanding the restoration of the Constitution. First let's take a look at the definitions of violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism as defined in Section 899A of the bill.

The definition of violent radicalization uses vague l anguage to define this term of promoting any belief system that the government considers to be an extremist agenda. Since the bill doesn't specifically define what an extremist belief system is, it is entirely up to the interpretation of the government. Considering how much the government has done to destroy the Constitution they could even define Ron Paul supporters as promoting an extremist belief system. Literally, the government according to this definition can define whatever they want as an extremist belief system.

Essentially they have defined violent radicalization as thought crime. This bill is completely insane. It literally allows the government to define any and all crimes including thought crime as violent radicalization and homegrown terrorism. Obviously, this legislation is unconstitutional on a number of levels and it is clear that all 404 representatives who voted in favor of this bill are traitors and should be removed from office immediately. The treason spans both political parties and it shows us all that there is no difference between them. The bill will go on to the Senate and will likely be passed and signed into the law by George W. Bush.
Considering that draconian legislation like the Patriot Act and the Military Commissions Act have already been passed, there seems little question that this one will get passed as well. This is more proof that our country has been completely sold out by a group of traitors at all levels of government.

Ron Paul Set To Use Radio And TV Ads In Presidential Campaign Bigtime

By Joe Gandelman

If some “mainstream” Republicans in debates and on conservative websites have felt that Rep. Ron Paul is an unwelcome thorn in their side with his views that on many issues don’t skew towards the present GOP establishment, they will be displeased by the following news:

Ron Paul’s campaign is gearing up to be a notable and persistent presence on radio and TV in early primary states by boosting broadcast ads and its fund raising drive. Translate that into: if the ads boost his numbers, it’ll be harder to dismiss him as a voice, harder for him to be as marginalized by editors assigning busy reporters to a daily assignment must-do-list, and it could increase his appeal among young supporters:

FARMINGTON — A local veteran with ties to convicted tax evaders Ed and Elaine Brown of Plainsfield is being held on $20,000 cash bail on misdemeanor charges he threatened to kill the town police chief, the town administrator and other town employees.

William Miller, 41, of Summer Street — an Army veteran of Desert Storm, a follower of the U.S. Constitution Rangers, a national grassroots organization that looks to defend citizens against perceived encroachments by the government, and a self proclaimed freedom fighter — was arraigned Monday at Rochester District Court on misdemeanor charges of criminal threatening and disorderly conduct.

Tempest In A Teapot

36 comments on We The People's post "Speaking To Power".

There's only ONE (1) question: Is our government a servant or master? Nothing else really matters. Good government honors God and is the servant to truth, justice and We The People. Bad government abhors God and serves the interest of evil. Period.

It's time to activate the accountability clause in the 1st amendment:

TEN SIMPLE WORDS:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, 1) and 2) to 3) petition 4) the 5) Government 6) for 7) a 8) redress 9) of 10) grievances.

We The People have petitioned our servant government for redress of grievances and our government refuses to answer. Why?

We The People Foundation wrote:

"With regard to our First Amendment, first impression, questions now before the Courts, there really is, and can be, no "middle ground" under our system of self-government and Popular Sovereignty. Either the People are Free or they are not. Either the Government is a servant government, beholden to the People and constrained in its authority to act by the written word of the Constitution and Bill of Rights, or it is the Master of our house -- the United States of America."

Dear reader, ask yourself: what side of the line are you on? Do you believe our govermment is not beholden to We The People? Do you believe that our government is "the Master of our house?" Do you believe that our government should no longer be "constained in its authority to act by the written word of the Constitution and Bill of Rights?"

Speaking To Power

This week, the We The People organization Petitioned the Judiciary of the United States, twice, on the Record, in what we believe is a historical, intellectually compelling defense of the Constitution and the People’s Right to hold the Government accountable to it.

A Message of Thanks From David-Hatch Bernier (Elaine's Son)

In response to our recent post David-Hatch Bernier wrote:

Dear FF:

Thanks for all the press. To answer your question, I did receive a letter from my mother last week, and she seemed in relatively good spirits, all things considered. I don't know how she'll feel about my being so vocal these past weeks, but I can't just sit back and let the Feds steal and kidnap people, when all they had to do was open a book and point to a law. I still am not able to visit or speak to her on the phone, and I do not yet know if she is receiving my letters. For anyone who may be wondering, the letter was in my mother's very distinct handwriting, so yes, it was her hand.

We are approaching 700 signatures on the second day of the petition being posted. I would love to deliver a ten-pound package to the courthouse in two weeks containing tens of thousands of signatures.

Thanks to everyone for all the support. You may never know how muchit means at a time like this. If anyone has a way on contacting Sherry Jackson, please forward my best wishes to her and her family in the weeks to come.

Editor's Note: David, we are 1000% behind you and your mother. Thanks for sharing some of the very special spirit of love, justice and hope that is so central to your mother's life. We wrote to her and Ed last week and will be sharing any response here on this blog. Thanks again!

PS. Please sign the "Ed and Elaine Brown Petition!"

Elaine's Son Comments On Sherry Jackson's Upcoming Trial

David-Hatch Bernier wrote:

I just want to follow up on Donna's request. I can't tell you all how much the actions of the courtroom audience can affect the trial. At Ed and Elaine's trial, some of their supporters got a bit carried away, and I could see a look on the jurors' faces to the effect of, "what a bunch of whackos." Incidentally, it was the only time those twelve sheep formed any exression other than dumbfoundedness, but that's not the point. To aid Sherry in her credibility, "we" need to look and act like "them." Like my mother and Ed, I'm sure Sherry will sincerely appreciate all the support, but in the courtroom, give them NOTHING to use against you.

Editor's Note: Be sure to sign the "Ed and Elaine Brown Petition" which Elaine's son, David-Hatch Bernier initiated, at this link.

We still do not know if David - or anyone - has been able to contact Elaine. See David's recent interview by WMUR9 about how he is worried about his mother - at this link.

Former Police Captain Stonewalls on Torture Allegations.

Casey Lee Cobb | ShowTheLaw.com | October 23, 2007

Former Cranston Police Department Captain, Robert Brown, who is currently employed at the Donald W. Wyatt Detention Facility in the criminal investigations division fails to address torture complaints reported by advocates of the Brown’s. All inquiries into the matter are being referred to the Warden of the facility who seems to be consistently and repeatedly unavailable to speak on the matter of the alleged torture inflicted upon Ed Brown who was housed in the Wyatt Detention Facility.

Yesterday Co-founder of ShowTheLaw.com, Beverly Durand, contacted Robert Brown at his place of work at the Wyatt Detention Facility in order to press the claim of torture that allegedly occurred at Wyatt on the 8th, 9th, and 10th of October. It has been confirmed that Beverly reported the claim that Ed Brown was being gassed while in the “care” of Wyatt. However, instead of receiving the claim of abuse, the investigator has chosen to refer Beverly to the warden of the facility.

Both this author and Beverly have previously left our contact information with Robert Brown in hopes that he will reach out to us in good faith in order that he may receive the full details of the claim, and or confirm that an investigation into the alleged incident has been launched. In both cases, Robert Brown seemed more interested in investigating us rather than getting specifics on the claim. Further efforts will be made by the founders of this site into the torture allegations that Ed Brown reported during a phone interview which took place on the 17th.

Investigation of Torture Allegations at the Wyatt Detention Facility in Rhode Island.

Tuesday, October 23, 2007

Casey Lee Cobb | ShowTheLaw.com | October 23, 2007

10/23/07: I am currently investigating the claims made by Ed Brown that he was gassed in a Rhode Island private prison. It has been confirmed by an employee at Wyatt Detention Facility that Edward Lewis Brown was released on the 10th.

I have contacted the investigative division of Wyatt Detention Facility and spoke with Rob Brown who asked for my first name, last name, and phone number. I provided the gentleman with the details, and he said he will call me back. When he calls back I plan on requesting a formal investigation into the claims that Edward Lewis Brown was gassed at that facility on the 8th 9th & 10th for a duration of 2-3 hours, per incident.

I made the gentleman aware of the claims during the initial call, but rather than address the claims he seemed more interested in my name and contact information. We will wait and see if Rob Brown contacts me back and acknowledges the claims, or initiates an investigation.

10/24/07: I have not received a phone call back as promised from Rob Brown, the main investigator in the investigations division of the Wyatt Detention Facility, located at 950 High Street Central Falls, RI. An associate investigative blogger who contacted the facility today reported that Investigator Rob Brown would not confirm that an internal investigation would be held into the alleged incident. My associate reported the only thing said and repeated was that “he was directed to have me call the wardens office.” Multiple attempts were made in contacting the warden, to no avail.

Hello members:

Regarding wearng the WTP shirts at the Sherry Jackson Trial:
Sherry and her attorneys have asked that we not wear them at the trial. They suggest that we dress in business attire and that we refrain from gasps, comments, or gestures during the trial. They feel this could hurt the case more than help. We can however wear them after the trial is over and interview Sherry after the trial. If you have video cameras do not take them to the courtroom, wait until after the days court events and interview others then. Sherry will not be able to talk about the trial until after it is over. Please watch the proceedings as we always do. Report any illegalities to Sherry's attorney in affidavit form. But above all, please be respectful. For those attending and those who want to attend, Sherry said "thank you for your love and support."

We have one member who would like to share a room and share a ride back to Tampa. He will fly in for the trial Monday morning and would love to ride back with someone. If you can do that, let me know and I will get you in touch. I can tell you he is a very nice guy, I have known him for years.

Political Prisoner Danny Riley Speaks
Out Via Recorded Phone Conversation.

Casey Lee Cobb | Show The Law | October 22nd 2007

Danny Riley is a True Patriot, he has my highest respects and should have yours as well. Please do everything in your power to assist him during these trying times. Riley stood for our constitution, and for this, he is now being jailed for no reason whatsoever.

Remember this all started with a simple question, it could have ended with a simple answer. However it's not very simple to explain to a nation that it has been robbed, people have been killed, and people have commited suicide, over a monumental fraud.

Their is no law that makes the avarage American liable for an income tax. The fraud has resulted in innnocent people being murdered, lives have been ruined, people jailed for no reason, and people have commited suicide. Were not going away, we want answers, we will get answers!

Visit: Daniel J. Riley Legal Defense be a patriot and make a $100.00 donation, the future of this country is on the line.

If we can't support our fellow brethren, who have been willing to risk their very own freedom in order to get answers. Then to be quite frank we will fail, and we will have no one to blame for said failure but ourselves. Let you're conscience be your guide.

Bill Douglas Responds to Bill Maher

Bill Maher has been the white shining knight for the anti-war movement for years now, when he was canned from network TV, and eventually found a place on HBO. He’s weekly insulted viciously those on the right who disagreed with him. I personally actually was a fan of Bill’s standup long before, back when he was the fashion photographer on an episode of Roseanne.

The Revolution Has Begun

From the video’s description:

People are not beholden to the Government, but rather the Government is beholden to the people. Never let anyone tell you Ron Paul can’t win.

You can’t count on television stations owned by corporations to tell you the truth. Research and make your own decision. We don’t have to elect just another politician. Support the candidate who wants the Government out of our lives and our troops out of Iraq NOW.

Bill Maher: Corporate Media Gatekeeper and Security Guard

Activist from We Are Change LA gets under the skin of corporate shill

After HBO employee Bill Maher lent a hand in evicting a “rowdy protester” from his show on Friday, the Associated Press wasted no time characterizing him as a “security guard” for the effort. “Maher on Friday night helped security remove a rowdy protester from the studio during his weekly HBO show ‘Real Time with Bill Maher,’ and it was all captured on live television,” including the point made by the so-called protester. “Maher was talking science during one of his weekly panel discussions when a protester in his audience stood up, held up a smuggled-in sign reading ‘9/11 is a cover up fraud’ and shouted comments to the same effect.”

The federal agent who arrested Ed and Elaine Brown on the porch of their Plainfield home spent more than a day visiting the couple a few weeks before the arrest, according to the man who introduced him to the tax-protesting couple.

In a radio interview yesterday, Shaun Kranish, an Illinois supporter of the Browns who founded the pro-Brown website makethestand.com, described his months-long relationship with a man who described himself as a "security consultant" and went by the nickname "Dutch." Read more here.

Benzene Poisoning: Take Action Now!

Benzene Poisoning: Take Action Now!

Casey Lee Cobb | Show The Law | October 20th 2007

As revealed in a recent phone interview between Shaun Kranish and Ed Brown. Ed Brown has made serious allegations that he was subjected to what he perceived to be Benzene Poisoning via the ventilation system in his prison cell for 3 days straight, while in the custody of US marshals in a Rhode Island detention facility.

The 65 year old tax honesty advocate reported that he was gassed, and it smelled of benzene. The now raspy voiced Ed Brown began to relay his experience on how he had to lay on the floor and breathe in the oxygen that came through the crack of the door in order to survive, he also reported that he lost consciousness a few times due to the alleged gassing.

This author takes these allegations very seriously and encourages you to do the same. Yes, Ed Brown is guilty of asking a question. He asked for the law, and now according to Ed he has been tortured and poisoned for asking this question. According to the CDC Benzene Poisoning could prove to be lethal. Ed Brown has also reported that the damage may be permanent.

Listed CDC Benzene Poisoning Symptoms

People who breathe in high levels of benzene may develop the following signs and symptoms within minutes to several hours: Drowsiness, Dizziness, Rapid or irregular heartbeat, Headaches, Tremors, Confusion, Unconsciousness, Death (at very high levels).

Initial Recommended Course of Action:

Poison Control: 1-800-222-1222

FCI ELKTON: 330-420-6200
(Demand that Ed Brown be allowed access to medical treatment.)

RI Governor Donald L Carcieri: (401) 222-2080
(Demand an investigation!)

Demand from U.S. federal Marshals; a chain of custody, documenting Ed’s Travels from his arrest to his arrival at the Elkton facility.

FYI: The knowledge of problems relating to benzene exposure are thought to date back as far as 1897, when there were case reports of blood disease caused by exposure to the chemical. In 1928 the first report that showed that Benzene could cause leukaemia was published. This was followed in the late 1940s by a toxicity review by the American Petroleum Institute, which showed that high level Benzene exposure caused leukaemia. Another study into the matter was conducted in 1977, and another report was filed regarding the link between Benzene and leukaemia. Other studies conducted since that time have confirmed the link between the chemical and leukaemia.
