I Am Not a Terrorist
By Ed Lewis
I am not a terrorist. I was born in the Republic of Missouri. This makes
me a citizen of the union of Republics known as the United States of
America.
As a 'by birthright' citizen, I am sovereign. Government is not. It has
no power over me except what it enforces through corrupted peace
officers, legislators, prosecutors, and judges. It forces upon me 'laws'
that are not just, nor within the limits of the Constitution under which
the many Republics united in common need and defence.
I am free as a creation of the Christian God. As such, I am free to
exercise my will in any manner I deem fit as long as I do not interfere
with the rights of another citizen.
Governments are not citizens but are created by citizens to protect these
rights known as unalienable, self-evident rights.
Any who would deprive me of these rights do so in a concerted effort to
displace the Constitution securing those rights. They do so in order to
force acceptance of government demands made upon a people who have not
given them the authority to do so.
As a citizen of this country founded on Christian principles, it is not
only my right, but my self-accepted duty, to voice whenever I detect any
actions by government which exceed the limits of government as granted by
the people in the Constitution for the United States. Government is but a
tool and not to define my rights - as it has no power to do so but
instead, is relegated to only one task - defense all self-evident
rights.
It is not the place, nor is it within the authority, of the majority to
determine what my rights are. My rights were given me before my birth at
the instant I began to grow as a human being. No other human may affect
those rights, as those rights existed far in advance of men forming
government.
No government entity, whether legislator, judge, law enforcer of invalid,
null and void laws, or group of citizens may determine any law affecting
me, as all laws that bind me as a human being come from the highest
source possible - my Creator.
I will voice my opinion. I will do whatever is in my power to preserve my
rights. As I preserve my rights, I will be instrumental in preserving the
rights of all people on Earth.
I do not accept - nor will I accept - that any government entity has
power and authority to run my life as it sees fit rather than me living
my own life as I see fit.
I accept that I may be incarcerated, tortured, or even killed in attempts
to force me to the will of the few. But, regardless, it will not change
my love for the freedoms I now know I am to have preserved and the love
of the country that is supposed to be. Such inhumane means will, however,
increase the awareness of many others to the tyranny being forced upon us
by people who are as evil as any who have ever existed.
When enough become awakened to the lack of freedom to which they have
gradually been subject; when enough become irate enough to force
government compliance to its limitations; then the traitorous ones to
liberty and to the union formed by the people, will be forced into
compliance to the sovereign people - or they will be destroyed. Either
way, I will have served my perceived duty as a citizen of the United
States of America.
If these beliefs in the rights of Man granted by God, and in the country
founded on the same, defines me as a terrorist because a few officials
said it does, then I am a terrorist.
If my exercising my rights as a citizen of the United States of America
is taken as acts of terrorism by those changing our governing almost
daily, then I am a terrorist.
If my disdain of government that has far exceeded its authority,
including state and local governments, is taken as an act of terrorism,
then I am a terrorist.
You decide. Am I, in expressing my opinion, a terrorist or am I a better
citizen for having expressed it and exercising my rights in spite of
government threats against others and me who do the same? Which is
indicative of the love of America and freedom - those who wish to
preserve it by word and deed - or those who wish to force compliance to
laws and actions intended only to oppress your rights as a creation of
God?
If the former, then declare yourself a citizen of the United States of
America and not a subject of unconstitutional governments via the many
transgressions and treasons against the people.
If the latter, then just go ahead and put on the ball and chain. Call
them up and get branded as one of their livestock.
You see, the end of liberty has already arrived for
you.

"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the
citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a
double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the
mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood
boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in
seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with
fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto
the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done.
And I am Caesar."
- Julius Caesar
