The Bill That Holds No Power, Holds No People
The Bill that holds no power will be known going forward as
the Bill of NO Rights-This bill was established in the United States of America
in 1791. The date of this bill is very important. It was drawn right after the
United States was detaching itself from British rule. The reason it was drawn
was in response to many request from several states for greater constitutional protection
for individual liberties. The “Bill” would allow for specific prohibitions on
government power, where people were concerned. Government (even back then)
power had the potential of being unfair, far reaching and harmful to the individual
man. Remembering that it is your local government that has the power over the
policemen, firemen, public works, utilities, economic development, education,
parks, roadways and every other public entity that isn't privately owned and
operated. That power…is given by us at a very basic level. We hand over this
power in small local elections, community board meetings and every time and
place we spend our money.
Every time we “opt out” of jury duty because it is an inconvenience,
we allow someone who doesn’t care about our community to be selected for a
grand jury. Even in their attempt to pull the grand jury “charade” together
they immediately change the rules to apply to this particular situation. http://northdallasgazette.com/2014/12/02/attorney-calls-for-immediate-suspension-of-ferguson-d-a/ Each and every dollar we spend in our
community and on our governmental necessities in our towns and cities is
translated into good or bad economic development. The media is charged with getting
the news out to us in any way possible to slant our opinion or position on any
given point of contention. Back to the Bill of Rights-1791 is an important time
in our history as it was the year of the Haitian revolt. The rebellion of
August 1791 would eventually ripen into the full-fledged Haitian Revolution,
lead to the revolution of African Haitian people, to the establishment of the Haitian
Republic. It also put an end to any thoughts Napoleon for a French- American
Empire in the West. It’s actually called Black August. http://news.newamericamedia.org/news/view_article.html?article_id=401e0400ac592cf0d44f467337723370
The bill of Rights that was adopted here in these United
States however... Either was NOT written for the black man…or it was. If it
was. We have some clear infractions and violations that have to be addressed in
order for this country to move forward. It is a clear travesty that the United
States spent in access of $6 trillion dollars in its Operation Freedom War, to
bring democracy to Afghanistan and Iraq. Sad thing is we have NO such freedom
here in the states. The 1% has economic power over the 99%, the government
charges its citizens to go to school and then acts like the biggest debt
collectors and home wreckers for US citizens. Foreign students simply take that
education “free” of charge and go back when their visas are over or simply
merge into society without issue. Scholars 3 dev website even suggest American
students do the same thing abroad. Most won't have to because tuition in a lot
of countries are free http://www.scholars4dev.com/4031/list-of-european-countries-with-tuition-freelow-tuition-universities-colleges/ United
States citizens that are black have the extra added stress of being stopped in
the streets and asked for identification for no reason as if in a 3rd world
country where roadblocks and passes are required. Israel enforces
restrictions on the freedom of movement of Palestinians in the West Bank by
employing a system of permanent, temporary and random manned checkpoints.
We now will have to see some paramount changes in order to
correct these years of civil disobedience to this BILL of No Rights for black
people. Most will assert the fact that these things take time, when in fact the
police officers that were “put” before a grand jury were not arrested nor
jailed at the time the grand jury was formed and deliberated and this took just
minutes to decide and make it so. There are fundamental actions that will have
to take place to make this nightmare cease.
Police Officer killings of unarmed citizens needs to be
classified as manslaughter at the least.
Manslaughter
The unjustifiable, inexcusable, and intentional killing of a human being without deliberation,premeditation, and malice.The unlawful killing of a human being without any deliberation, which may be involuntary, in the commission of a lawful act without due caution and circumspection.
Broken Bill of Rights promises include the following
Amendment VI
In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an
impartial jury of the state and district wherein the crime shall have been
committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law,
and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted
with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining
witnesses in his favor, and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense.
Amendment VIII
Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines
imposed, nor cruel and unusual
punishments inflicted.
Amendment IX
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights,
shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
Amendment X
The powers not delegated to the United States by the
Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states
respectively, or to the people.
God Bless Us…everyone
