RE: Thought Criminal | Lauren Southern and Stefan Molyneux
There was a man from cobb County Ga arrested for appealling an illegal Gag-a gag was issued for asking a woman out for pizza by email. He was held 19 months no bond, beat his case. Still detained another month after beating his case with no charge. The detective entered into evidence a false copy of the appeal, and admitted to such in federal discovery. Federal Judge Eleanor Ross held that there was no right to judicial review, even though the state constitution says otherwise and so it is a part of due process and the equal protection clause. Said the detective acted without malice despite producing false evidence and falsely swearing out a warrant. And said a prudent officer would have done the same thing. Across the country we are instead seeing police protecting people who made the same legal arguments on the first amendment, even hateful groups like the alt-right in charlottesville. Even you made the argument in your video as you advocated for words not swords. 11th circuit refused to review, as did the scotus. The man lost his home, his reputation, his college degree, and his potential for 6 figure income. Why would a police officer go after a man for appealing a civil case? While the judge refused to find an unconstitutional municipal policy, the county had engaged in one under 42 usc-3796-hh. To limit their exposure to civil damages, the county enacted nobond policies to force people to plead guilty. A detective is n film laughing at acknowledging it destroys peoples lives. One particular detective, A Robby Carl Ray, was using the no bond policies to gain favor with the women who entered into his office. He would befriend them on facebook, and then demand dates and nude pictures from them. Shortly after he waived service in the federal civil suit, he destroyed his facebook account...but couldn't avoid his old habits that resulted in an IA complaint. Why would the federal judge let the cop and the municipality off the hook? Because her own husband, Brian Ross, is prosecuting the same unconstitutional state statutes in violation of 18 usc 242. She refused to recuse herself from the case when she had a duty to do so.
To make matters worse he was also starved while in jail. Feeding inmates in Ga has always been a duty upon the county, and the federal judge recognized this as has all previous courts state and federal based upon the state constitution. However on appeal, a 3 panel review said no: It is a state function, and granted sovereign immunity with a scathing dissent on state law and the expansion of sovereign immunity. Basically William Pryor wanted to Alabamize the Georgia state constitution. On en banc, the 11th circuit again said state function, with one judge dissenting. Case is seeking a writ of certiorari before the scotus.
We are not safe here in the united states. We can be selectively destroyed for speech that any governmental official doesn't like. Cobb County is a prime example. Banks Wise was threatened for addressing a right to raise organic chickens at a county hearing. Amy Barnes was arrested for saying f*** the police-resulted in a 100k settlement-but she was later targetted by the police who ripped apart her family, and she was gagged. Susan McCoy filed an SEC complaint against the county for their half billion dollar deal with the Atlanta Braves, a county official burned down her fence. When she spoke up about it they had her arrested, and was forced into taking a plea deal and being gagged. A Mary Kirkendoll was arrested for saying "This is bulls***" on her way out of a townhall meeting, 85k settlement. A dozen other people were threatened for daying to speak against the atlanta Braves. A Peter Long drove by his ex's place of employment and gave her a double middle finger, he was arrested and held without bond and was gagged from ever seeing his son again. A john Marvin Miller sent letters to his kids wishing them happy birthday, he was arrested without a bond set. He plead guilty hoping to get out of jail, and was sentenced to 10 years prison. People arrested for the speech made of others. See Dixon v Cobb County. And others for trying to make arrangements to pick up their own things. One Alabama man was ticketed for driving while eating while driving a BMW....some 76% of their sheriff's budget is from civil asset forfeiture. I have heard of many other cases but I haven't been provided the names to dig for the details.
This is all in one county. Makes you wonder how large the problem is across the country. Like people being arrested for sending an empty envelope. When Google sends a friend request.
The first amendment makes it clearly established that the government may not commence these types of prosecutions. But What is restraining them? At the end of the day, after the end of years of litigation, they still have their jobs, they are still accepting taxpayer money for the crimes they commit against the American public. How many lives do they have to destroy on the basis of people or ideas they do not like. The get to selectively choose a group of people who become homeless, virtually unemployable, and financially destroyed.
It is getting to the point where the people will have to use swords to deal with the lawless judiary and police.
