Bill Of Rights 'Killed In Action' By Drug War

[Ganjarden]

Why is the press aiding and abetting the deprivation of rights under the color of law?

Millions of Americans have been arrested and their property has been seized for violating marijuana laws.

Millions of us have the right to question the validity of these laws and are denied the right to due process of law.

Marijuana is still illegal because the judiciary does not recognize marijuana users as people and does not recognize marijuana as property. Only people and property under the Constitution's 4th and 5th Amendments are protected from unreasonable deprivation of liberty and property.

Lawyers and judges deny the enforcement of marijuana laws affect individual rights to privacy, liberty and property secured by the 4th and 5th Amendments.

The courts claim no rights are affected by the enforcement of marijuana laws because marijuana is not a fundamental right. Judicial review is the rational basis test, not the reasonableness standard of the 4th amendment.

Reasonable criminal laws are to protect the rights of others from an individual's activities.

This year, without review, the U.S. Supreme Court is saying that it is rational to search and seize my person, house papers and effects for violating marijuana laws.

The Bill of Rights was adopted to the Constitution of the United States on Dec. 15, 1791. What happened to 4th and 5th Amendment of the Bill of Rights?

I would have to say "killed in action" in the "war on drugs" by those who take an oath to protect them.

The simple ugly truth is this . Article 1 , Section 8 , Clause 17 of the Constitution allows congress to exercise " exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever" in the District of Columbia .In other words , this means that congress can not be held to adhearance to the Constitution in the 10 square miles of the District of Columbia . There is no control . None whatsoever. ...The 14th amendment places all citizens under the jurisdiction of the District of Columbia , ie. a ward of Washington D.C. , which means that instead of haveing "Rights " , you now have government granted statutory priviliges that may be granted or taken from you for any reason or no reason whatsoever. The ugly truth is that the people of the nation have unwittingly and unknowingly have surrendered their freedom and rights and are now "Ruled over by the Kingdom of Washington D.C".....The sooner that the people are made to understand this , the sooner that liberty and freedom will be restored .
