Black-Robed Liars and What Juries Can Do
By Christopher Hansen,
Vin Suprynowicz wrote a wonderful article today on jury rights.
It convinced me that I should comment on my favorite solution to American’s problems… so I have.
It is said we have four voting boxes and that we must use the first three properly to avoid the need to use the fourth.
Those four are:
#1 The good ole, seldom used properly voting box which has, in Nevada, been turned into an electronic vote stealer that no one in the right mind could trust.
#2 The Grand Jury box. This box was meant to protect Citizens from over zealous prosecutors. The old saying now is that you can indict a ham sandwich but that is not always the case. In many cases the IRS has to go to a grand jury several times before getting an indictment. They refine their case each time and can go back until the get what they want. If Grand Juries would just stop allowing for indictments by tyrant supporting Department of [in]Justice attorneys freedom could be restored to America but few Grand Jury members understand much of anything because they attend government schools that do not teach about jury rights.
#3 This is the Jury box. The one you see on TV where you watch prosecutors violate the law and no one does anything about it because it is okay and allowable to get the bad guys off the street by breaking the law and violating the Constitution…just like it happens in real courts. If the public would just stop convicting people on tax law violations where the judge cannot show the jury the law that was violated (because there usually isn’t one) or on drug charges which are, as Vin put it, unconstitutional, or weapons violations that usually are in violation of the 2nd amendment, or other non-violent crimes that do nothing but generate prison jobs and do nothing to actually protect the public then freedom could be restored no matter who was elected because bad laws passed by these tyrants (Republicans and Democrats makes no difference) because there would be no real enforcement and the government would fear the people which Jefferson said was the only way to have liberty.
#4 is, of course, the cartridge box. That is one that no sane person wants. I know I do not.
So what are you going to do about this. Will you tell your friends? Will you show the the trust. Will you have them read Vin’s article or read about Jury Nullification or learn more about Fully Informed Juries?
If you are an average Public School taught Republican or Democrat then you will follow the normal path and do nothing, just like you have done your whole life.
Freedom is dying and Americans doing nothing are to blame.
VIN SUPRYNOWICZ: Friday is Jury Rights Day — Do you know yours?
To grasp why the Bill of Rights leads off by barring Congress from “establishing” any religion, “or prohibiting the free exercise thereof,” you must understand that in 18th century England there was no “separation of church and state.” The English monarch to this day includes in her title “Fidele Defensor” — Defender of the Faith. Which helps explain why even our right to a jury trial stems directly from this era.
In 1670, it was declared illegal to hold a religious gathering or preach a sermon in England which was not a “Church of England” sermon. Dissident churches, including the Quaker meeting houses, were closed.
Unable to get into his London meeting house, William Penn led a Quaker meeting in the street outside. He was arrested and put on trial — on Sept. 5, 1670, 338 years ago this week.
The judges explained to the jury that preaching a nonconformist sermon was illegal, and Penn had been caught doing just that. They instructed the jury to convict.
The jury asked to be read the wording of the law Penn was said to have violated. The judges told them they didn’t need to read any stinking law, they were to “take the law as we give it to you” — an insufferably aristocratic phrase that’s cropping up a lot in our own courthouses, these days.

A good description of the “four boxes.” Our Founding Fathers gave each of these to us so that we could protect ourselves from them - the government.
I also badly do not want #4 to happen, so it is very important for freedom loving Americans to exercise the other three!
Regarding #1, it is obvious that the twin party monopoly on government must be broken. It is time to elect Independent Americans to office.
