Where You Finally Find Out . . .

They Know You Better Than You.

Criminalizing Innocence

• Cops In Texas Seize Millions By ‘Policing for Profit’ Texas law enforcement are continuing to enrich themselves using a little-known legal doctrine known as civil forfeiture, according to a new series of investigative reports. Under civil forfeiture, property can be forfeited even if its owner has never been charged with a crime. In these proceedings, accused criminals have more rights than innocent owners and the government sues the property, not its owner. These cases can be so baffling, one Texas Supreme Court Justice recently compared civil forfeiture to Alice in Wonderland and the works of Franz Kafka. But civil forfeiture isn’t just a quirky curiosity—it’s a powerful incentive for law enforcement to take millions. The odds of an owner winning a forfeiture case are further lowered by the reverse burden of proof in Texas. Incredibly, innocent owners actually bear the burden of proof in civil forfeiture proceedings. In other words, they are guilty until proven innocent.
  

And “Law” Enforcing Plunder Means

• General Orders No. 100 
  

  Art. 10.

  Martial Law affects chiefly the police and collection of public revenue and taxes, whether imposed by the expelled government or by the invader, and refers mainly to the support and efficiency of the army, its safety, and the safety of its operations.

  Article 1.

  A place, district, or country occupied by an enemy stands, in consequence of the occupation, under the Martial Law of the invading or occupying army, whether any proclamation declaring Martial Law, or any public warning to the inhabitants, has been issued or not. Martial Law is the immediate and direct effect and consequence of occupation or conquest.

  The presence of a hostile army proclaims its Martial Law.

• No Treason: Constitution of No Authority
  

• No Treason, No. 1

  Previous to the war, there were some grounds for saying that — in theory, at least, if not in practice — our government was a free one; that it rested on consent. But nothing of that kind can be said now, if the principle on which the war was carried on by the North, is irrevocably established.

  If that principle be not the principle of the Constitution, the fact should be known. If it be the principle of the Constitution, the Constitution itself should be at once overthrown.

• No Treason, No. 2
• No Treason, No. 6

You Live Either Under an Occupation or Conquest.
