You can tell a REAL journalist from a propaganda artist by their characterization of Bundy as a tax cheat who breaks the law. Congress can pass a LAW that says you must kill your first-born. There is ABSOLUTELY nothing to prevent Congress from passing ANYTHING that crosses their mind. So to simply justify the massacre of Bundy and his supporters in Nevada based upon the fact they have broken a LAW is totally outrageous and they had better understand the government structure we have.
What is UNLAWFUL is the fact that we have a pretend tripartite government where Congress can enact absolutely anything its member think of or are paid to do corruptly and it is the Judiciary’s job to say it is lawful or not – but only if it wants to hear the case. Yes, we have the circuit courts of appeal sitting on top of district courts. But did you realize what that TRULY means? The Second Circuit can uphold the old common law Prima Noctum and allow the governor of New York to demand the “first night” with any woman who gets married because that was the English tradition for a governor. The Fourth Circuit in Virginia can disagree. It is then the Supreme Court that is supposed to resolve differences in the LAW among the circuits – but only if it WANTS to hear the case.
The Supreme Court’s ability to declare a Legislative act of Congress or Executive act of the President to be in violation of the Constitution, is not found within the text of the Constitution itself. The Court established this doctrine in the case of Marbury v. Madison (1803). However, when exercising its appellate jurisdiction, the Court, with a few exceptions, does not have to hear a case. The Certiorari Act of 1925 gives the Court the discretion to decide whether or not to do so. In a petition for a writ of certiorari, a party asks the Court to review its case. The Supreme Court agrees to hear about 100-150 of the more than 7,000 cases that it is asked to review each year.
Therefore, there is no ABSOLUTE rule of law in the United States because the various circuit court of appeals are all independent and their “view” of the law need not agree with any other circuit. That means the law is NOT the same around the country. Consequently, anyone claiming Bundy is violating the “law” and is really an “outlaw” and thus not a patriot but a terrorist is a propaganda artist and NOT a legitimate independent journalist. We do not have a system that requires a law to be tested BEFORE it is enforced. The constitution is NEGATIVE and is therefore intended to be a restraint upon Congress, but it is the burden of the people to say NO.Under this reasoning of obvious questionable journalists, you can be forced legally to give your daughter to sleep with the governor or to execute your oldest son because Congress passed a law. That is NO excuse to simply do as Congress demands under our system BECAUSE it is the very obligation of the citizen to defend his own personal rights. Hello – read the very law you use to justify killing Bundy and his supporters!
In Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych passed a law that no more than 5 cars can travel in a group because he was trying to suppress the people. That was the “law” in Ukraine and the people said NO. They had signs in the back of the car – Do not follow me I am the Fifth Car. If Viktor Yanukovych was wrong then so is Harry Reid. You cannot be inconsistent in your opinion without being just biased. What is right is right.
Sorry – Harry Reid is the one acting totally unconstitutional in EVERY possible respect. That is the REAL legal system in America. Passing “laws” do not make them right morally or ethically. Do not forget, those same arbitrary laws imposed by George III prompted the American Revolution. So those who call Bundy an “outlaw” are the same type of people who said George III was right and Jefferson should have been hung with Franklin, Adams, Washington, etc, etc.
