Great! Also, I feel that the word "unalienable" (or "inalienable") stems from the word "lien," which is of course a hold, retention, or restriction of some kind. So, I prefer to think of the word as pronounced as such:

un-a-LIEN-able

In this sense, our Creator-given rights cannot be taken way nor conferred, but also they cannot be held for ransom or restricted for some illegal, unlawful reason, that is "a-liened."

But somehow, over the course of centuries, the psychopathic tyrants have incrementally hypnotized us into believing that they — and they alone — confer and a-lien our rights.

WRONG! Let us remain ever vigilant and courageous, no matter their pathetic attempts to make fear overtake our Creator-given senses.💖🗡💝

I live in the "banana republic of Colorado" on the western slope near Aspen. I am 75 years old and I hold a BA is sociology from the University of California (1975).

In Colorado, if you are the product of the public (government) schools; the concepts of "life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness" and "unalienable rights" are not known. And the very thought of; "That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness." is illogical and senseless. Especially to the Colorado millennials who have been "dumb-down" to the point of truly incapable of any form of logic and reasoning.

It is my humble opinion our Constitutional Republic is fallen and will never stand again. I politely suggest to all who read this comment, to immediately begin to prepare to defend your homes and families for a hot civil war in 2024-2025.

My only hope for mankind is the Return of Jesus Christ as King of kings.

I think a lot of people have hoped though out history for the return of Jesus Christ. Maybe our Creator has plans that don't quite match up to the common revealed belief systems.

Courageous Lion: Please know that I hold your work and stated purpose of "awakening the other lions" in the highest regards and I agree completely with your posit: "Maybe our Creator has plans that don't quite match up to the common revealed belief systems."

That is why my only hope for mankind is the Return of Jesus Christ as King of kings.

Great essay on the importance of rights. 2 thoughts:

Most libertarians want to do away with intellectual property rights, but the right to own intellectual property is ensconced in the Constitution itself, in Article I, Section 8, Clause 8.

A threat to real rights are the phony rights that leftists create, such as the "right" to housing and the "right" to medical care, as I discuss in my recent substack post and Rumble video https://rumble.com/v43jipo-you-have-a-right-to-leftists-fill-in-the-blank.html

Labor unions are Communist. I'll watch the video.

It behooves us to know that the terms "communist" and "socialist" have been co-opted and besmirched by the Nasties to confuse us about the things that are good for us... Nazis were NEVER "socialist," they were/are FASCIST. It is entirely possible to have a nice little communist (communal) sort of group, town, etc, IF the govt and the CIA are kept at bay. Note the use of the terms actual meanings: COMMUNE-ist, and SOCIAL-ist are all about groups of the Regular Folks, not the Muckities.

Simply making a point about terminology and the smearing of efforts to have People Power, as opposed to tyranny. NOT making a judgment on the "best" system or whatever, just noting the sabotage of language in order to boggle minds, a la CIA...

Good post, Lion.

I think the Nazi's were both fascist and socialist. Maybe a new word needed to be coined. Oh I know Nazi. The pilgrims tried a communal group and it didn't work out. It would NEVER work out due to individual abilities. It's like when you work somewhere and get the same pay as the next guy and he does half the work. If I see he is doing half the work for the same pay, what is my incentive to not cut my workload to equal his? That's why piece work is a fairer type of system. I would have thought that my post about Communism American Style would have helped you understand what really is vs what we think it is. I checked and see you did read it.

Not always and the US Congress declared the BAR Associations are communist.

I hope you do! It starts out a repudiation of the so-called "right to strike".

No one can have a "right" at the expense of another which is why the "right" to housing and medical care cannot in any way be a right.

Something to consider:

When it comes to Intellectual Property Rights and Informed Consent (such as with Patents for medical countermeasures, pharmaceuticals, vaccines, foodstuffs/beverages/health and beauty aides/supplemental vitamins and minerals, cleaning supplies like laundry detergent, etc.):

How can one give Informed Consent when one does not know what the Intellectual Property ingredient (Trade Secret) is unknown?

In the past, we entrusted oversight agencies to do due diligence; and how has that worked out?

Expand full comment

Oversight agencies become compromised with bribes and stipends to those running the agency. So, yes, there is a problem for sure.

I've tried and tried to become more understanding of what you are writing about, but there is so many conflicting articles that I've about tossed my hands up and said...IF IT IS FRAUD, IT IS FRAUD. If WE THE PEOPLE are not cognizant of this kind of bullshit that was done without our knowledge, without our consent, without entering in an actual signed sealed and delivered agreement...then it is NULL AND VOID for FRAUD. It appears to me to be quite a lot of CONSTRUCTIVE fraud. I was 14 when I was issued the socialist security number. Try existing without it. Good luck. ME? I'm 69 and they can shove this shit up their ass and I'll deal with it if I have to the same way Patrick Henry would have.

What actually made it to the 1st law of the land.

We hold these truths to be self evident.

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to

(1) dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and

(2) to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should

(3) declare the causes which impel them to the separation.

was this,

and this.

The First Amendment to the United States Constitution prevents the government from making laws that: regulate an establishment of religion; prohibit the free exercise of religion; abridge the freedom of speech, the freedom of the press, the freedom of assembly, or the right to petition the government for redress of grievances.

All the freedom of religion is not actually in the documents that count. Then Article IV Section 4 precludes Islam.

Expand full comment

How does that section preclude Islam? If someone that follows that belief system lives here they obviously cannot force it on us.

Expand full comment

Article IV Section 4 requires a Constitutional republican form of government. Islam requires Sharia law. They are not compatible law forms. Muslims are required to kill, convert of collect fees from infidel men; women are chattel. You need some serious work to catch up. Like read The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America; Our Confederation and perpetual Union's articles; The United States of America's Constitution circa 1859; then your states constitution all those after Oregon are de facto federal states.

Expand full comment

So if they are ISLAM they have two choices. GET THE FUCK OUT or die trying to force us into their obviously sick way of thinking. As it stands that section is not a prohibition against Islam. Their beliefs may be a prohibition against it, but not the other way around. The Constitution stands. Islam AND Judaism AND Zionism can go to hell. Have you done some reading about Zionism? Like the Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion? Maybe you need to do some catching up. As for me catching up? I always love communicating with a know it all. I'm not going to "catch up" to your way of thinking because my views are probably a lot different than yours are. I THINK I've read The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America; but I am wondering if you are going to claim there is another version. As for that 1859 version. WHERE IS IT? My brother and I have searched and searched and figure it must be bullshit. And yes I "know" about the OTHER 13th amendment and the titles of nobility. I also "know" the 14th amendment was not properly ratified or the current 13 amendment or the 16th amendment. Problem is WTF can you do about it? Raise an army to fight it? Good luck with that!

It is not know it all. It is knowing about what you say and saying it correctly. As an example the United States of America is bogus. The United States of America is our name styled in the articles of Confederation and perpetual Union.

Again you write before you read the material. Neither document accepts the other. There is no Constitutional freedom of religion. That came from SCOTUS.

Identify Zion in our lawful documents.

As for the Constitution each time it is amended or a new state is added all previous versions become artifacts. Just as it was designed. The last Amendment was in 1819 13 TONA. The last state was Oregon. All states after 1859 are de facto federal states not of The United States of America's lawfully Constituted states. Thinking and abstract reasoning and deductive analysis.

There is no Congress assembled and there has not been since March 1861. Like I said you and your brother need to work a bit to comprehend and not assume. If there is no evidence then there is not. I am not you enemy. Your ignorance is. You know a lot just not enough. Find or form your Jural Assembly. www.orsja.org. No bullshit. It is all signed, sealed, stamped, witnessed, with proof of service and published by the provisional government on Oregon June 2018. www.orsja.org.

Got all the way to Declaration of Independence. An Added affectation similar to the Preamble. It is de facto never ratified , bogus. The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen United States of America. Before they named themselves, The United States of America in our Confederation and perpetual Union's articles . All of us, should really know wtf we are talking about and stop perpetuating "their lies." Back to the posting.

Does it fail at the first defect? individual Black's 6th page 773; they specifically do not have rights but can have debt. Men and women have rights they also have body, mind, spirit, flesh, blood, soul they are the sovereign people in Bouvier's Dictionary 1856 not persons as are individuals.

SOVEREIGN. A chief ruler with supreme power; one possessing sovereignty.

(q.v.) It is also applied to a king or other magistrate with limited powers.

2. In the United States the sovereignty resides in the body of the

people. Vide Rutherf. Inst. 282.
