How The Law Became A Sword Instead Of A Shield

Steve Kubby was a candidate for the Libertarian Presidential nomination in 2008, and the runner up for the party's VP nomination in 2008 and 2000. He was also the party's candidate for Governor of California in 1998. He is currently working on a new business venture in the medical field. Disclosure: I worked on his presidential campaign.

The Law and those who enforce the Law, have made a fundamental, immoral, illegal and unconstitutional shift in their Rules of Engagement. As a medical cannabis activist, my colleagues and I are the first to be see and feel the boots of those who are intent on hijacking the Law to suit their own evil purposes. Here is what we see.

Under the Constitution and Bill of Rights in the US and the Charter of Rights in Canada, the Law is intended to provide a SHIELD, to protect the rights and welfare of citizens from those who would abuse those rights and those citizens through force or fraud.

However, the Police, Prosecutors and Judges, have betrayed the trust placed in them, subverted the Law, and turned their dreary, moronic rules and regulations into a SWORD, intended to harm, not protect the citizens they are supposed to serve.

Those responsible for these crimes against their fellow citizens, are traitors, by the very definition provided by the US Constitution, Article 3, Section 3: "Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort."

The penalty for treason is usually death: "Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States."

(Cite: 8 USC 2381 - Sec. 2381. Treason, 18 USC - U.S. Code - Title 18: Crimes and Criminal Procedure, January 2004)

When our the Police, Prosecutors and Judges, have betrayed the trust placed in them, when they wage a "War on Drugs" that is used as an excuse to jail more people and more minorities than any other country in the world, or in history, then we have Traitors and our security is more threatened than any criminal act by terrorists.

These same Police, Prosecutors and Judges have violated their oath of office to uphold and defend the Constitution, and now openly violate and abuse the very laws that give them their power to begin with.

When they protected us, our Police, Prosecutors and Judges deserved our trust and respect. But now that these public serpents, have betrayed our trust and openly wage an illegal, unconstitutional, immoral, and Treasonous war against us, they are the Enemy of all freedom loving people and only a real and genuine revolution will right the wrongs of such a corrupt and evil society.

As freedom loving, peaceful people, we abhor violence, but there is no avoiding the blood fight that lies ahead. When the Law becomes a Sword, instead of a Shield, honest men will take up arms to defend their rights, their families and their way of life. As difficult and painful as it is to admit it, Thomas Jefferson said it best:

"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants."

More good Libertarian thought...

This reminds me of timireferseeds' quote of the month
@timireferseed

"Police used to serve and protect now they enforce and collect!"
 
The whole thing sucks,we pass a law and try to enforce it and they scream fed law trumps state law,so why even let us have the charade of our vote counts,if they wont let us use the laws we pass,insanity and greed still rule the way we do things.
