4346: Double Meanings for Different Things from Lincoln County Watch
By Anna Von Reitz
My
Readers are no strangers to the kinds of deceitful games the rats play
with words and names, so it should come as no surprise that the same
applies to entire phrases and definitions.
Let
me offer some helpful guidance through this morass of misspeak and run
through an example that is currently causing a lot of problems.
David
Straight has encouraged millions of people, especially U.S. Citizens,
to "correct" their political status to that of an "American State
National". He has done this on the basis of Federal Code found in Title
8--- 8 USC 1101 (a) (21) --(I think) but regardless of the exact
citation, the point is that--- Number One, he has justified this on the
basis of Federal Code.
Now,
other people, also citing Federal Codes have come forward and said,
"No, no, no! You can get in trouble making a claim to be an American
State National....and they then cite their Federal Code sources, saying,
the term "American State National" only applies to American Samoans,
etc.
It's
a typical Federal Code Ballywhump, where nobody is reading the Code
correctly and where people are not being helped, because they don't have
the tools to sort out the verbiage.
And both parties are right --- to an extent.
Let's begin with the fact that Federal Code does not apply to Joe Average in any broad way.
You,
American, eating your lunch beside a railroad track, may have
unknowingly come into physical Federal jurisdiction, or maybe you
knowingly entered Federal jurisdiction by going to the Post Office, and
therefore need to obey the Federal Codes attached to those environs.
You might actually be engaged in interstate commerce, though that is unlikely and an unnecessary supposition.
You might be engaged in the manufacture, sale, or transportation of alcohol, tobacco, or firearms across state lines.
You might be operating a boat or ship or barge.
You might be licensed as a Uniformed Officer, like a Medical Doctor or Registered Nurse.
But,
the point is, aside from such special occupations and locations, the
vast majority of you are not "generally subject" to Federal Code.
Federal Code applies to Federal employees and their direct dependents -- either military or Federal Civil Service.
Now
doesn't that make sense? Federal Code applies to Federal Employees.
Just like Federal Income means profits derived from Federal employment.
So
that is the first issue: the use of Federal Code when talking about or
to Joe Average American is generally speaking not appropriate. Patriots
constantly make this mistake and it is a Big Mistake.
Ask yourself: why reference Federal Code if it does not apply to you?
The
only reason that a member of our General Public would have to reference
Federal Code is to convince Public Employees that they are in violation
of their own Code, and if that is what you are doing, you must make
that very explicit.
"Yes, you are a Public Employee, and here is the pertinent Federal Code you need to obey...."
Estimates
are that 92-95% of all Federal Code has no application related to Joe
Average American, so, unless your are a Public Employee, please stop
this pernicious habit of trying to justify everything according to
Federal Code.
I
repeat: unless you are engaged in a federally regulated activity or
know that you are physically in a federally regulated location -- an
army base, a post office, a railroad corridor, etc. -- Federal Code does
not apply to you.
David
Straight is trying to help people like himself who have, for one reason
or another, a compelling reason to adopt British Territorial United
States (U.S.) Citizenship. They typically adopt this political status
because of their employment and lose their Constitutional Guarantees as a
result.
He
is trying to show them a way that they can reclaim their guarantees and
make use of their ability to adopt Dual Citizenship/Nationality.
So
David is trying to help Federal Employees and the use of Federal Code
could be appropriate, but in this case, it isn't. Why? Because his
critics are right, the phrase "American State National" as used in
Federal Code only applies to American Samoans.
Please notice the words "as used in Federal Code".
When
these same words "American State National" are applied outside of
Federal Code, in the world where actual people speak plain English, they
apply to anyone born or naturalized within the physical borders of an
actual State of the Union.
So
in Federal-ese, the words "American State National" refer to the
political status of American Samoans. In Common Parlance, the same
words, "American State National" mean anyone born or naturalized within
the physical borders of an actual State of the Union.
How do you tell the difference between the two?
When the words are written on paper, they look identical, and when they are spoken, they sound the same.
Hints
are provided from context, but the only sure way to tell the difference
is to know the definition you are using and say it or write it out.
The
bureaucrats resort to using Latin conventions--- and use "American
State National" to refer to American Samoans' political status, and
American "state national" to refer to those born or naturalized in the
States of the Union.
Even though English is our official language, the use of Latin style conventions has been allowed as an exception since 1851.
This
just adds to the confusion for Joe Average American, who according to
English, assumes that he is an American State National, when in the
Federal System he is an American state national.
Obviously,
there are considerable communications obstacles embedded in this
situation, obstacles that can be overcome by tediously expressing the
definitions you are using, or, by adopting Latin style conventions, or
both.
Such differences can also be exploited by unscrupulous persons.
When
you are claiming your birthright political status and you are obligated
to maintain U.S. Citizenship for some reason, its necessary to
establish what you mean by "American State National" versus what they
mean by "American State National" --- and because your meaning comes
from Common Usage, it's inappropriate to reference Federal Code which
assigns a totally different meaning to the same words.
There. Does that help?
