Alleged Bill of Rights.

If you look at all of the state constitutions from 1781 to 1850 A.D., you will find that the people have stated their rights with respect to their government in a "Declaration of Rights." After 1861 A.D., most of the legislative bodies of the states inserted a "Bill of Rights" into the state constitutions in place of a "Declaration of Rights."

Before 1861 A.D., there was no header in front of the alleged first ten articles of Amendment to the constitution of the united States of America. After 1861 A.D., the alleged first ten articles of Amendment to the constitution of the united States of America became known as the "Bill of Rights."

The "Declaration of Rights" should only be found in the state constitutions, and not in front of the alleged first ten articles of Amendment to the constitution of the united States of America. The alleged "Bill of Rights" under the first ten articles of Amendment to the constitution of the united States of America is a fiction. The alleged first ten articles of Amendment are not a "Bill of Rights," nor are they a "Declaration of Rights." The alleged first ten articles of Amendment to the constitution of the united States of America are declaratory and restrictive clauses placed upon our servants by the people of the united States of America for the sole purpose as to prevent misconstruction or abuse of governmental powers. There should not be a "Bill of Rights" in any of the state constitutions or the constitution of the united States of America.

Some of the state's constitutions have "Declaration of Rights," but there is a fraud as the statement in the beginning of the constitution, states "We the people of the State of Idaho." It is the people who create the state and not the state who create the people. By stating it as stated above, the people now belong to the state and then who created the state? It should be stated in the following manner, "We the people of Missouri (whatever state)" and therefore can create whatever they chose which includes a state.

Before February 6, 1861 A.D., the people were in power in a republican form of government and after that date, the President has, by a self assumed power, declared himself above the people and has declared this nation to be a democracy with the alleged passage of the XVII amendment to the constitution of the united States of America, the republican form of government was dissolved.

Now the people only have the rights dictated to them by the King to his subjects, which are called a "Bill of Rights." (Civil Rights Act 1964), (Roman Civil law). This is shown by the "Bill of Rights" of 1689 from King William and Queen Mary. As stated in the definitions from the following law dictionaries; Bouvier's law dictionary, 3rd edition, 1848 and Black's law dictionary, 6th edition, 1990. If the King violated the subject's rights, then the subject can sue the King through a Bill in equity.

The "Declaration of Rights" comes from the people who are the master, king or Sovereign telling his servants exactly what Rights he has, and tells his servants through the constitution and statutes exactly what his job duties are.

The evidence of this fraud is in the difference of definitions between Bouvier's law dictionary, 1848 and Black;s law dictionary, 1990. As it is a maxim of law that the only definition that can be used, is the one that was in use at the time the document was brought into action. This falls under the customs and usages of the common law.

The word "alleged" is used because we have three different versions of the first fourteen articles of amendment to the constitution of the united States of America. Last time I checked the Amendments were only written once and added to the constitution of the united States of America.

A.D. 1689

BILL OF RIGHTS.

I William & Mary, Sess.2, c. 2.

Whereas the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, assembled at Westminster, lawfully, fully, and freely representing all of the estates of the people of this realm, did, upon the thirteenth day of February, in the year of Our Lord one thousand six hundred and eighty-eight, present unto their majesties, then called and known by the names and style of William and Mary, Prince and Princess of Orange, being present in their proper persons, a certain declaration in writing, made by the said Lords and Commons, in the words following, viz.:
Whereas the late King James II, by the assistance of diverse evil counsellors, judges, and ministers employed by him, did endeavour to subvert and extirpate the Protestant religion, and the laws and liberties of this kingdom:
1. By assuming and exercising a power of dispensing with and suspending of laws, and the execution of laws, without consent of Parliament.
2. By committing and prosecuting divers worthy prelates, for humbly petitioning to be excused from concurring to the same assumed power.
3. By issuing and causing to be executed a commission under the Great Seal for erecting a court, called the Court of Commissioners for Ecclesiastical Causes.
4. By levying money for and to the use of the crown by pretense of prerogative, for other time, and in other manner than the same was granted by Parliament.
5. By raising and keeping a standing army within this kingdom in time of peace, without consent of Parliament, and quartering soldiers contrary to law.
6. By causing several good subjects, being Protestants, to be disarmed, at the same time when Papist were both armed and employed contrary to law.
7. By violating the freedom of election of members to serve in Parliament.

8. By prosecutions in the Court of King's Bench, for matters and causes cognizable only in Parliament; and by diverse other arbitrary and illegal courses.
9. And whereas of late years, partial, corrupt, and unqualified persons have been returned and served on juries in trials, and particularly diverse jurors in trials for high treason, which were not freeholders.
10. And excessive bail had been required of persons in criminal cases, to elude the benefit of the laws made for the liberty of the subjects.
11. And excessive fines have been imposed; and illegal and cruel punishments inflicted.
12. And several grants and promises made of fines and forfeitures, before any conviction or judgement against the persons upon whom the same to be levied.
All which are utterly and directly contrary to the known laws and statutes, and freedom of this realm.
And whereas the said late King James II, having abdicated the government, and the throne being thereby vacant, his Highness, the Prince of Orange (whom it hath pleased Almighty God to make the glorious instrument of delivering this kingdom from popery and arbitrary power) did (by the advise of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and diverse principal persons of the Commons) cause letters to be written to the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, being Protestants, and other letters to the several counties, cities universities, boroughs and cinque ports, for the choosing of such persons as represent them, as were of right to be sent to Parliament, to meet and sit at Westminster upon the two-and-twentieth day of January, in this year one thousand six hundred eighty and eight, in order to such an establishment, as that their religion, laws and liberties might not again be in danger of being subverted; upon which letters, elections have been accordingly made.
And thereupon the said Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons pursuant to their respective letters and elections, being now assembled in a full and free representation of this nation, taking into their mist serious consideration the best means for attaining the ends aforesaid, do in the first place (as their ancestors in like case have usually done), for the vindicating and asserting their ancient rights and liberties, declare:-
1. That the pretended power of suspending of laws, or the execution of laws, by regal authority, without the consent of parliament, is illegal.
2. That the pretended power of dispensing with laws, or the execution of laws by regal authority, as it hath been assumed and exercised of late, is illegal.
3. That the commission for erecting the late Court of Commissioners for Ecclesiastical Causes, and all other commissions and courts of like nature, are illegal and pernicious.
4. That levying money for or to the use of the Crown, by pretence of prerogative, without grant of parliament, for longer time or in other manner than the same is or shall be granted, is illegal.
5. That it is the right of the subjects to petition the king, and all commitments and prosecutions for such petitioning are illegal.
6. That the raising or keeping a standing army within the kingdom in time o peace, unless it be with consent of parliament, is against the law.
7. That the subjects which are Protestants may have arms for their defense suitable to their conditions, and as allowed by law.

8. That election of members of parliament ought to be free.
9. That the freedom of speech, and debates in proceedings in parliament, ought not to be impeached or questioned in any court or place out of parliament.
10. That excessive bail ought not to be required, nor excessive fines imposed; nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
11. That jurors ought to be duly impaneled and returned, and jurors which pass upon men in trials for high treason ought to be freeholders.
12. That all grants and promises of fines and forfeitures of particular persons before conviction, are illegal and void.
13. And that for redress of all grievances, and for the amending, and strengthening, and preserving of the laws, parliament ought to be held frequently.
And they do claim, demand, and insist upon all and singular the premises, as their undoubted rights and liberties; and that no declarations, judgements, doings or proceedings, to the prejudice of the people in any of the said premesis, ought in any wise to be drawn hereafter into consequence or example.
To which demand of their rights they are particularly encouraged by the declaration of his Highness the Prince of Orange, as being the only means for obtaining a full redress and remedy therein.
Having therefore an entire confidence that his said Highness the Prince of Orange will perfect the deliverance so far advanced by him, and will still preserve them from the violation of their rights, which they have here asserted, and from all other attempts upon their religion, rights, and liberties;

Bill. Legislation. The draft of a proposed law from the time of its introduction in a legislative body through all the various stages in both houses. Once introduced, a federal bill may be considered in any session of a Congress, but it dies at the end of a session, and it must be reintroduced as a new bill if a succeeding Congress is to consider it. The form of a proposed law before it is enacted into law by vote of the legislative body. An "Act" is the appropriate term for it after it has been acted on by, and passed by, the legislature.

Bill of Rights. English law. A statute passed in the reign of William and Mary (February 13, 1689-March 8, 1702), so called because it declared the true rights of British subjects. W. & M. stat. 2, c. 2.

Right. …The absolute rights of mankind may be reduced to three principal or primary articles: the right of personal security, which consists of a person's legal and uninterrupted enjoyment of
his life, his limbs, his body, his health, and his reputation; the right of personal liberty, which consists in the power of locomotion, of changing situation, or removing one's person to whatsoever place one's inclination may direct, without any restraint, unless by due course of law; the right of property, which consists in the free use, enjoyment and disposal of all his acquisitions, without any control or diminution, save only by the laws of the land.

Sovereign. 1. - A chief ruler with supreme power; one possessing sovereignty. 2. - In the United States the sovereignty resides in the body of the people.

Sovereignty. Strictly speaking, in our republican forms of government, the absolute sovereignty of the nation is in the people of the nation; and the residuary power of each state, not granted to any of its public functionaries, is in the people of the state.


Black's law dictionary, 6th edition, 1990.

Bill. Legislation. The draft of a proposed law from the time of its introduction in a legislative body through all the various stages in both houses. Once introduced, a federal bill may be considered in any session of a Congress, but it dies at the end of a session, and it must be reintroduced as a new bill if a succeeding Congress is to consider it. The form of a proposed law before it is enacted into law by vote of the legislative body. An "Act" is the appropriate term for it after it has been acted on by, and passed by, the legislature.

Bill of Rights. A formal and emphatic legislative assertion and declaration of popular rights and liberties usually promulgated upon a change of government;…

Declaration. In common-law pleading, the first of the pleadings on the part of the plaintiff in an action at law, being a formal and methodical specification of the facts and circumstances constituting his cause or action. It commonly comprises several sections or divisions, called "counts", and its formal parts follow each other in this general order: Title, venue, commencement, cause of action, counts, conclusion. The declaration, at common law, answers to the "libel" in ecclesiastical and admiralty law, the "bill" in equity, the "petition" in civil law, the "complaint" in code and rule pleading, and the "count" in real actions. The term "complaint" is used in the federal courts and in all states that have adopted Rules of Civil Procedure.

Declaration of Right. See Bill of Rights.

Sovereign. A person, body, or state in which independent and supreme authority is vested; a chief ruler with supreme power; a king or other ruler in Monarchy.

Page five of six.
Sovereignty. The supreme, absolute, and uncontrollable power by which any independent state is governed; supreme political authority; the supreme will; paramount control of the constitution and frame of government and its administration; the self sufficient source of political power, from which all specific political powers are derived; the international independence of a state, combined with the right and power of regulating its internal affairs without foreign dictation; also a political society, or state, which is sovereign and independent.
The power to do everything in a state without accountability, --to make laws, to execute and to apply them, to impose and collect taxes and levy contributions to make war or peace, to form treaties of alliance or of commerce with foreign nations, and the like.
Sovereignty in government is that public authority which directs or orders what is to be done by each member associated in relation to the end of the association. It is the supreme power by which any citizen is governed and is the person or body of persons in the state to whom there is politically no superior. The necessary existence of the state and that right and power which necessarily follow is "sovereignty." By "sovereignty" in its largest sense is meant supreme, absolute, uncontrollable power, the absolute right to govern. The word which by itself comes nearest to being the definition of "sovereignty" is will or violation as applied to political affairs.

P.S. We hope with the information provided in this document, it will help the reader to better understand the true nature and meaning of what our founding fathers intended for the great empire known as the united States of America. It took us many hours of effort and research along with resources to produce knowledgeable documents that may at one day be used so that "the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth" shall be taught to our kids and our kids, kids. A donation of any amount would be helpful and grateful so that we can continue conducting further research into the "real truth."
