Petition to the Court to address grievance(s) of a citizen of the United States of America;

It is my contention that the Laws of The Constitution of The United States of America and the Bill of Rights, in its Original Intent when written, have been subverted and perverted by those within the Government. These perversions, both past and present, were committed by those whom were supposed to safeguard the liberties implied therein. In addition that the 'ideals' contained within the Declaration of Independence, are indeed admissible in a court of law, for they provide further detail as to the thought and intent of the collective whole body of the founders of our country. Thus establishing precedence of their intent in writings thereafter. So that they must be considered when rendering any type of deliberation that would have adverse affect on the Constitution as it was originally formed. For it is evident that there have been many rulings that are contrary to the original intent of the Founders of these United States of America. To that end, the following grievances are being brought to the court for readdressing and further deliberation;

The first grievance being presented is that of the perversion, if you will, of the First Amendment of The Bill of Rights which was an addition to the original Constitution. It is very plain, and is within quoted context that 'separation of State' was meant that the Government could not mandate that a specific Religion be adhered to as if being 'State sponsored'. As well as that the Government would be unable to dictate to the Church on what matters could be publicly proclaimed. That would make the Everson v. Board of Education, 1947 decision a total perversion of the original intent of the Founders as EVIDENCED by the following statements;

The First Amendment has erected a wall of separation between church and state, but that wall is a one directional wall; it keeps the government from running the church, but it makes sure that Christian principles will always stay in government.

Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States, January 1, 1802, in an address to the Danbury Baptists
.......................................................................................................................................................................

Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers and it is the duty as well as the privilege and interest, of a Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers.

John Jay, 1st Chief Justice of Supreme Court
.......................................................................................................................................................................

The reason that Christianity is the best friend of government is because Christianity is the only religion in the world that deals with the heart.

Thomas Jefferson
.......................................................................................................................................................................

It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians, not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ!

Patrick Henry

.....................................................................................................................................

The highest glory of the American Revolution was this: that it connected, in one indissoluble bond, the principles of civil government with the principles of Christianity.

John Quincy Adams
.......................................................................................................................................................................

We have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people...it is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.

John Adams
.......................................................................................................................................................................

The church must take right ground in regard to politics. Politics are a part of a religion in a country as this, and Christians must do their duty to the country as a part of their duty to God...He will bless or curse this nation according to the course Christians take in politics.

Charles Finney
.......................................................................................................................................................................

Indeed, I tremble for my country when I reflect that God is just, that His justice cannot sleep forever.

Thomas Jefferson, (Inside the Jefferson Memorial)
.......................................................................................................................................................................

The 1st Amendment has been previously judicially reaffirmed on many occasions as outlined;
By our form of government, the Christian religion is the established religion and all sects and denominations of Christians are placed upon the same equal footing.

Runkel v. Winemiller, 1796
.......................................................................................................................................................................

Whatever strikes at the root of Christianity tends manifestly to the dissolution of civil government.
People v. Ruggles, 1811 (2 decades after the 1st Amendment)
.......................................................................................................................................................................

The purest principles of morality are to be taught. Where are they found? Whoever searches for them must go to the source from which a Christian man derives his faith - the Bible.

Vidal v. Girard's Executors, 1844
.......................................................................................................................................................................

Had the people, during the Revolution, had any suspicion of any attempt to war against Christianity, that Revolution would have been strangled in its cradle...At the time of the adoption of the Constitution and the amendments, the universal sentiment was that Christianity should be encouraged, not any one sect ... in this age there can be no substitute for Christianity. ... That was the religion of the founders of the Republic and they expected it to remain the religion of their descendants ... The great vital and conservative element in our system is the belief of our people in the pure doctrines and divine truths of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

House Judiciary Committee Report, March 27, 1854,

(after a one year study brought about by a suit to force the separation of church and state.)
.......................................................................................................................................................................

Delaware Constitution, 1776, (consistent with the First Amendment); I do profess faith in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ his only Son, and in the Holy Ghost...one God and blessed forevermore; and I do acknowledge the Holy Scriptures of the Old and New Testament to be given by divine inspiration.

.......................................................................................................................................................................

Our laws and our institutions must necessarily be based upon and embody the teachings of the Redeemer of mankind. It is impossible that it should be otherwise; and in the sense and to this extent our civilization and our institutions are emphatically Christian.

George Washington, from his Farewell Address to the Nation

Church of the Holy Trinity v. United States, 1892.
.......................................................................................................................................................................
In the Supreme Court; In the case of Reynolds v. United States, 1878, the court pulled out Jefferson's speech in its entirety and confirmed that Jefferson also said that Christian principles were never to be separated from government. The Supreme Court used Jefferson's speech for the next 15 years to make sure that Christian principles stayed part of government. Unitl; Christian principles stayed part of government.

It remained this way until 1947, when, in the first time in the Supreme Court's history, the court used only eight words out of Jefferson's speech.

The First Amendment has erected a wall between church and state. That wall must be kept high and impregnable.

Everson v. Board of Education, 1947
.......................................................................................................................................................................

The 1947 decision was a deliberate definitive perversion of the original intent and therefore must be considered as null and void! For it bears not with the facts presented in any way, shape or form!

Yet the perversion was allowed to continue despite the preponderance of evidence of it being contrary to that of the original intent;

Almighty God, we acknowledge our dependence upon Thee and we beg Thy blessings upon us, our parents, our teachers, and our Country.

The 22 word prayer that was declared to be unconstitutional and which led to the removal of all prayer from public schools in the case Engel v. Vitale. (This little prayer acknowledges God only one time. The Declaration of Independence itself acknowledges God four times).

The above decision was not only obvious in error but was in direct violation of the original intent of the 1st Amendment. These facts need to be reconsidered and weighed out in the scales of justice! For it is evident the decay in society has correlationorelation to the unjust decisions previously made by the court. That it is the responsibility of the court to correct decisions made in error. I pray the court to take heed of the words of John Jay, 1st Chief Justice of The Supreme Court;
"Providence has given to our people the choice of their rulers and it is the duty as well as the privilege and interest, of a Christian nation to select and prefer Christians for their rulers".

The words of the Honorable John Jay are testimony, in and of itself, of the original intent! The previous rulings must be overturned - they are in obvious error and are in direct conflict to the General Welfare of the citizens of The United States of America!

For the court to not consider the writings attributed to the Founders, AND of the Court itself, is inept and unconscionable. It would have to be considered an abomination of truth and justice itself! It would provide ample proof that the government itself is in violation of its own constitution! And that it is a collective intention by all branches of the government to stray from the principles of a Republican form of government and institute a new perverse form. Thereby causing the enslavement of the citizens of these United States of America. ......................................................................................................................................................................

The second grievance presented is that of the Laying aside, by many localities and states and by many attempts of those in the Federal government, the clear intent of the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights in the U.S. Constitution. It is VERY clear, and beyond dispute the intention of the Founders when this Bill was made into Law. The following quotations from the people instrumental in writing the Bill spell out their exact meaning concisely and have direct bearing in addressing the grievance presented;

(Amendment II - A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed).



Article IV of the U.S. Constitution;

Section 2
The Citizens of each State shall be entitled to all Privileges and Immunities of Citizens in the several States.

Article VI of the U.S. Constitution;

This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in
Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the
Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the
Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or
Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.
.......................................................................................................................................................................

"A militia, when properly formed, are in fact the people themselves ... and include all men capable of bearing arms."

- Richard Henry Lee
......................................................................................................................................

"When the government fears the People, that is Liberty. When the People fear the Government, that is tyranny."

- Thomas Jefferson

"False is the idea of utility that sacrifices a thousand real advantages for one imaginary or trifling inconvenience; that would take fire from men because it burns, and water because one may drown in it; that it has no remedy for evils, except destruction. The laws that forbid the carrying of arms are of such a nature. Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man."

- Thomas Jefferson, COMMON PLACE BOOK 314
......................................................................................................................................................................

The Constitution shall never be construed to prevent the people of the United States, who are peaceable citizens from keeping their own arms...

- Samuel Adams
.....................................................................................................................................

The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properly armed.

- Alexander Hamilton
.....................................................................................................................................

"A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."

- George Washington
.....................................................................................................................................

"Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands?"

- Patrick Henry
.....................................................................................................................................

"The balance of power is the scale of peace. The same balance would be preserved were all the world not destitute of arms, for all would be alike; but since some will not, others dare not lay them aside ... Horrid mischief would ensue were one half the world deprived of the use of them ... the weak will become prey to the strong."

- Thomas Paine
......................................................................................................................................................................

"Americans have the right and advantage of being armed, unlike the people of other countries, whose leaders are afraid to trust them with arms."

- James Madison
.....................................................................................................................................

"...arms...discourage and keep the invader and plunderer in awe, and preserve order in the world as well as property. ...Horrid mischief would ensue were (the law-abiding) deprived the use of them."

- Thomas Paine
.....................................................................................................................................

"The Constitution of most of our states (and of the United States) assert that all power is inherent in the people; that they may exercise it by themselves; that it is their right and duty to be at all times armed."

- Thomas Jefferson
.....................................................................................................................................

And again this has been upheld in a court of law as well as expanded as to its meaning and intent;

"The right of the whole people, old and young, men, women and boys, and not militia only, to keep and bear arms of every description, and not such merely as are used by the militia, shall not be infringed, curtailed, or broken in upon, in the smallest degree; and all of this for the important end to be attained: the rearing up and qualifying a well regulated militia, so vitally necessary to the security of a free State. Our opinion is, that any law, State or Federal, is repugnant to the Constitution, and void, which contravenes this right, originally belonging to our forefathers, trampled under foot by Charles I. and his two wicked sons and successors, reestablished by the revolution of 1688, conveyed to this land of liberty by the colonists, and finally incorporated conspicuously in our own Magna Carta! And Lexington, Concord, Camden, River Raisin, Sandusky, and the laurel-crowned field of New Orleans, plead eloquently for this interpretation!"
- Nunn vs. State, 1 Ga. 243, 250, 25 - (1846)
......................................................................................................................................................................

The preceding quotations plainly show the intent of the Founders of this country. For the court not to receive them into evidence and give them due and just consideration would be ludicrous. As well as provide evidence of complicity that the court itself is involved in enslavement of the citizens of The United States of America! If that be the case, then it is morally mandatory that the court itself be dissolved. And a new court instituted that will abide by the laws set forth by the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

The grievances presented to the court are from one citizen of these United States of America. They are made to urge the court to reconsider previous positions that are in direct violation of the Laws of this land. There are however MILLIONS of citizens of like mind that desire the court to address these perversions in our present governmental systems. The attempt to correct these matters needing tended to are presently in a lawful and peaceful manner. One cannot say what the result will be, should the grievances not receive just attention! The frustration and anger as well as disillusionment with the present government, by the people, may bring about another remedy. One which would not be in the best interest of all involved! It would therefore behove the court to consider the words found in one of our precious historical documents, The Declaration of Independence...That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.

Government was created of the people, for the people and by the people - not people being created, to be governed!

It is therefore requested of the court to reaffirm the Original 1st and 2nd amendments in the Bill of Rights contained within the United States Constitution. And strike down, as null and void, any LOCAL, STATE or FEDERAL ruling that is found contradictory to the Original U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.
