This land was your land Posted: June 24, 2005 1:00 a.m. Eastern © 2005 WorldNetDaily.com
I wrote a book a few years ago about property rights. It was called, "This Land Is Our Land." I didn't think of it as an optimistic book at the time. But after yesterday's chilling U.S. Supreme Court ruling that government can seize our property against our will for no other reason than it capriciously chooses to do so, the title is certainly no longer accurate. We do not own our property any more in America. Imagine the home you own the one you scrimped and saved your entire life to purchase, the one you planned on living in for the rest of your life, the one you planned to pass on to your heirs was taken from you, capriciously by a small group of local officials in conspiracy with wealthy developers who want to level it and build office buildings. You may not have to imagine it. It could happen to you any time. It has already happened to a group of Connecticut homeowners salt-of-the-earth, working Americans whose modest homes represent their life savings, their estates, their life's work. That was the finding of the U.S. Supreme Court yesterday. Your property is not your property. That home you invested so much of your life in it belongs to the government. It is only on loan to you until the day the government chooses to loan it to someone else. That is the message of the black-robed tyrants. Listen to it well. This is the most basic freedom upon which all the other liberties we hold dear are built. That's what the founding fathers explained. Freedom of speech? It descends, they said, from the right to property. Your thoughts, your beliefs, your opinions were equated with your personal property and possessions. That's why you had the right to express them according to your conscience. Notice I said "had." Five fascists on the U.S. Supreme Court undercut every freedom we know in America. I do not exaggerate when I say they have done more damage to the Constitution than any five people in history. Stop worrying about Osama bin Laden and nuclear-armed terrorists. All they can do is kill you. Anthony Kennedy, David Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, John Paul Stephens and Stephen G. Breyer have done something worse. They would have you live in servitude to the state. They would reduce all free Americans to serfs. They would make government your master. The Congress better stop worrying about trivial issues like flag desecration. The Constitution has just been trampled, spit upon and torched. In doing so, these judicial terrorists have done more harm to the American way of life than weapons of mass destruction ever could. If this ruling is permitted to stand by the U.S. Congress, it's simply time to start shopping for a new country or start planning the revolution. I don't know what else to say about it. President Bush needs to speak out against this travesty of justice. The Congress needs to be heard from. Yes, the Congress has the power, should it ever have the courage to use it, to set aside a ruling like this and permanently enjoin the court from ever ruling in the future against the well-enshrined, inalienable, well-documented, constitutionally protected right to own and enjoy property. This country was birthed in a war of independence fought against an unaccountable empire that failed to acknowledge and respect the rights of colonists in America. But the grievances of those heroic patriots that created the greatest experiment in freedom the world has ever known were trivial compared to the grievances 21st-century Americans have against the empire in Washington. The only question is whether or not we have the courage of our forefathers. Are we willing to sacrifice our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor to reclaim our American birthright of freedom? It's time for a new tea party. It's time for a new Lexington and Concord. It's time for a new Declaration of Independence. It's time for civil disobedience and throwing off the shackles of rule by men. It's time to begin plotting how to re-establish the rule of law under a sovereign God. http://www.worldnetdaily.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=44960 *************************************************************************** Berdikusi dg Santun & Elegan, dg Semangat Persahabatan.
