Class action suit against the DEA, DOJ, etc...

Submitted by David Borden on
I'm ready to launch one. The claim originates from this Federal Code; TITLE 42 > CHAPTER 21 > SUBCHAPTER I > § 1983 Civil action for deprivation of rights The creation of the drug laws was illegal - unconstitutional. The supreme court had ruled that congress could NOT use the commerce clause to regulate PRODUCTION or MANUFACTURE of... ANYTHING. This was mentioned again in U.S. v Lopez; U.S. Supreme Court U.S. V Lopez The Constitution creates a Federal Government of enumerated powers. See U.S. Const., Art. I, 8. As James Madison wrote, "[t]he powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite." The Federalist No. 45, pp. 292-293 (C. Rossiter ed. 1961). This constitutionally mandated division of authority "was adopted by the Framers to ensure protection of our fundamental liberties." “...The commerce power "is the power to regulate; that is, to prescribe the rule by which commerce is to be governed. This power, like all others vested in Congress, is complete in itself, may be exercised to its utmost extent, and acknowledges no limitations, other than are prescribed in the constitution.” “...When cases involving these laws first reached this Court, we imported from our negative Commerce Clause cases the approach that Congress could not regulate activities such as "production," "manufacturing," and "mining." See, e.g., United States v. E. C. Knight Co., 156 U.S. 1, 12 (1895) “ The drug laws violated these (there were more than one) supreme court rulings. Strike one against congress, strike one against the drug laws. The charges in drug crimes are for possessing private property. Property RIGHTS are GOD GIVEN rights that are SUPERIOR to any government interaction. All powers of government (in the USA) are derived from the rights of the people. Can I legally prevent someone from selling their personal computer to you - if you want to buy it, they want to/are willing to sell it, and you agree upon a price? Can I get a group of people - a few hundred of us - and PREVENT that transaction from taking place? And assuming you make the deal, buy the computer - I can then take the computer FROM you, and hold both you and the seller because I WANT to? Can I EVER LEGALLY deprive you of your rights - to own property and contract with it freely - which are granted to you BY GOD - by getting a larger group together and deciding to strip you of those rights? The government has authority derived from our rights. I cannot do this without the government - so I cannot GIFT this authority - AS A PRIVILEGE - to the government. Strike two against congress... Strike two against the drug laws... If that isn't enough... U.S. Code Title 18 Chapter 13 Section 242 - Deprivation of Rights Under Color of Law... This FEDERAL LAW prohibits the government or ANYONE acting under ANY law to deprive a citizen (or anyone) of their RIGHTS, privileges, etc... protected under the constitution. This is great CRIMINALLY - but as citizens we cannot press criminal charges - only file formal complaints and wait for the authorities (who in this case ARE the criminals...) to arrest and punish themselves. This is ridiculous. Luckily there is another remedy; TITLE 42 > CHAPTER 21 > SUBCHAPTER I > § 1983 § 1983. Civil action for deprivation of rights Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia. Here is where I want to base my civil class action suit - with any currently or past incarcerated non-violent drug war VICTIM - political prisoners - silenced through incarceration - able to sign on to the suit. I think the nation's ready for it. We need to reclaim our GOD GIVEN rights - shake off the UNGODLY government that has taken those rights from us... And reclaim our nation for the PEOPLE - the rulers of this nation. Anyone have a legal resource to tap to begin this suit? I'm ready to push it. Hard. I'm ready to testify. And I'm ready to put my name on the thing to get it started. Hook me up with someone willing to write it, and lets get going. It's time to stop letting the aggressors run over the citizens they are sworn to protect. It's time, in this war, to begin taking up arms of knowledge and piercing the armor of lies that the enemies of the United States have taken upon themselves. It's time to stop WHINING about the war and FIGHT it. I'm ready. I'm able. Someone please give me a clue where to start a class action suit.
