Meet Bernard von NotHaus

He is one of my Heroes. Can he be one of yours too?

Bernard Von NotHaus with Congressman Ron Paul

Please don’t tell me I have to tell you which one he is!

From back in 2014:

Liberty Dollar creator and self-proclaimed “monetary architect” Bernard von NotHaus, who was found guilty in US federal court in North Carolina in March 2011 of counterfeiting and fraud, is scheduled to appear on December 2 before U.S. District Court Judge Richard L. Voorhees. The now-70-year-old von NotHaus has been awaiting sentencing for over 3 1/2 years.

The “Justice” Department asserted that von NotHaus was placing gold, and silver coins, along with precious metals currency into circulation with the purpose of mixing them “into the current money of the United States.”. In short, the government accused von NotHaus of counterfeiting.

Von NotHaus did appeal his conviction stating….

“…if anything is clear from the evidence presented at trial, it is that the last thing Mr. von NotHaus wanted was for Liberty Dollars [to] be confused with coins issued by the United States government…His intention – to protest the Federal Reserve system – has always been plain. The jury’s verdict conflates a program created to function as an alternative to the Federal Reserve system with one designed to [deceive] people into believing it was the very thing Mr. von NotHaus was protesting in the first place…the Liberty Dollars was not a counterfeit and was not intended to function as such. The verdict is a perversion of the counterfeiting statutes and should be set aside.”

and SURPRISE, SURPRISE the black robbed Baal priest, “Judge” Voorhees rejected von NotHaus’s appeal.

Mr. von NotHaus developed the Liberty Dollar in 1998. as an “inflation-proof” alternative currency to the U.S. Dollar, which he has claimed has devalued since the Federal Reserve was established in 1913. The silver and gold “coins” were produced by the Sunshine Mint in Idaho on behalf of the Evansville, Illinois-based Liberty Services, which also issued paper notes that the group says are backed by silver reserves.

In November of 2007, federal officials raided the group’s headquarters, located in a strip mall, and seized (that is STOLE) all documents and the gold and silver that backed up the paper certificates and digital currency being distributed through Liberty Services website. In addition, all coins, bullion and even the dies used to strike the Liberty dollar coins held in the vault at the Sunshine Mint have also been confiscated.

After all, we can’t possibly have REAL money compete in the marketplace against fake created out of thin air Fed Notes, now can we? Which by the way, aren’t even notes for: Federal Reserve Notes are not federal, represent no monetary reserves and no longer conform to the definition of notes. Failing to state who, will pay what, when or to whom - they ceased to be legal tender notes, (offers of money) almost 60 years ago. They are in fact instruments of legalized THEFT.

I ask you…were Bernard’s LIBERTY DOLLARS instruments of theft or did they actually have some REAL value that you could trade or hold in your hand? Let’s go on…

The following was the full statement issued by the US Attorney’s Office after the guilty verdict given by the brain dead gooberment school graduates on the jury was announced:

BERNARD VON NOTHAUS …. was convicted …. by a federal jury of making, possessing and selling his own coins, announced Anne M. Tompkins, U.S. attorney for the Western District of North Carolina. following an eight-day trial and less than two hours of deliberation, Von NotHaus, the founder and monetary architect of a currency known as the Liberty Dollar, was found guilty by a jury in Statesville, North Carolina, of making coins resembling and similar to United States coins, of issuing, passing, selling, and possessing Liberty Dollar coins, of issuing and passing liberty dollar coins intended for use as current money, and of conspiracy against the United States.

The guilty verdict concluded an investigation that began in 2005 and involved the minting of Liberty Dollar coins with a current value of approximately $7 million. joining the U.S. Attorney Anne M. |Tompkins in making today’s announcement are Edward J. Montooth, acting Special Agent in charge of the FBI, Charlotte Division, Russell F. Nelson, special agent in charge of the United States Secret Service, Charlotte Division, and Sheriff van Duncan of the Buncombe County Sheriff’s office.

According to the evidence introduced during the trial, Von NotHaus was the founder of an organization called the National Organization for the Repeal of the Federal Reserve and Internal Revenue Code, commonly known as NORFED and also known as Liberty Services. von NotHaus was the President of NORFED and the Executive Director of Liberty Dollar Services, Inc. until on or about September 30, 2008.

von NotHaus designed the Liberty Dollar Currency in 1998 and the Liberty coins were marked with the “$”, the word Dollar, USA, Liberty, Trust in God (instead of In God we Trust), and other features associated with “legitimate” U.S. coinage. since 1998, NORFED has been issuing, disseminating, and placing into circulation the Liberty Dollar in all its forms throughout the United States and Puerto Rico. NORFED’s purpose was to mix Liberty Dollars into the current money of the United States. NORFED intended for the Liberty Dollar to be used as current money in order to limit reliance on, and to compete with, United States currency.

In coordination with the Department of “Justice”, on September 14, 2006, the United States Mint issued a press release and warning to American citizens that the Liberty Dollar was “not legal tender.” the mint press release and public service announcement stated that the department of justice had determined that the use of Liberty Dollars as circulating money was a federal crime.

Article 1, Section 8, Clause 5 of the United States Constitution delegates to Congress the power to coin money and to regulate the value thereof. this power was delegated to Congress in order to establish and preserve a uniform standard of value and to insure a singular monetary system for all purchases and debts in the united states, public and private. Ahhhh….and has CONgress kept it’s part of the deal? No? I’m shocked.

Along with the power to coin money, Congress has the concurrent power to restrain the circulation of money which is not issued under its own authority in order to protect and preserve the Constitutional currency for the benefit of all citizens of the nation. It is a violation of federal law for individuals, such as Von NotHaus, or organizations, such as NORFED to create private coin or currency systems to compete with the official coinage and currency of the United States. Yep, we sure can’t have REAL money competing with the “official currency” AKA toilet paper of the United States now can we?

Von NotHaus faced a sentence of up to 15 years imprisonment on count two of the indictment and a fine of not more than $250,000. Von NotHaus faces a prison sentence of five years and fines of $250,000 on both counts one and three. YEAH! I feel so much safer!

Anne Magee Tompkins – Dumb Ass Lying Piece of Human Shit United States Attorney claimed:

“Attempts to undermine the “legitimate currency” of this country are simply a unique form of domestic terrorism,” US Attorney Tompkins said in announcing the verdict. “While these forms of anti-government activities do not involve violence, they are every bit as insidious and represent a clear and present danger to the economic stability of this country,” she added. “We are determined to meet these threats through infiltration, disruption, and dismantling of organizations which seek to challenge the legitimacy of our democratic form of government.” (Emphasis mine)

YEAH!!! Don’t you feel so much safer knowing that some brain dead idiot can claim that someone trying to FIX the screwed up monetary system is somehow a terrorist? Well if so, he’s MY kind of terrorist. Terrorism being that which she was in the process of doing.

terrorism /tĕr′ə-rĭz″əm/

noun

1. The use of violence or the threat of violence, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political goals. CHECK

2. The act of terrorizing, or state of being terrorized; a mode of government by terror or intimidation. CHECK

3. The practice of coercing governments to accede to political demands by committing violence on civilian targets; any similar use of violence to achieve goals. CHECK.

She filled all three! Be proud you dumb ass!

When asked about the government’s motive for accusing him of terrorism, von NotHaus replied, “This is the United States government. It’s got all the guns, all the surveillance, all the tanks, it has nuclear weapons, and it’s worried about some ex-surfer guy making his own money? Give me a break!”

No Bernard, they weren’t worrying about you making that money. They were worried about you overturning the thieving, crooked, lying, cheating, robbing, stealing, low life, criminal, terroristic, murdering, FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM! And THAT my dear friends is why Bernard Von NotHaus is one of my HEROES. And he should be yours too.

Which of the following is the REAL Counterfeit? Hint, hint…it’s the one claiming to be something it isn’t. A dollar is weight and measure of a substance.
