War is the source of law and in today's case the 1861-65 war
is the source of U.S.,UNITED STATES LAW.
Example:
The judge at the Court of Constitutional Guarantees told Fidel
Castro concerning the court's lack of jurisdiction in
Castro's case against Batista; "Revolution is the font
(source) of law". The rest is history.
Reality says many wars were fought to change the source of
law to the victor.
The millions of people in the U.S. who comprise the political
power which maintains today's GOV. in power consent to the
governing of themselves by force under man's rules and
regulations (code law).
==============================================================
LAW OF NATURE. The law of nature is that which God,
the sovereign of the universe, has prescribed to all men, not
by any formal promulgation, but by the internal dictate of
reason alone. (Bouiver 1856 law dictionary)

Feel free to disagree. Your mind and thoughts are your's alone.

The Information contained in the following pages + links
has been provided to counter the BOGUS LEGAL INFORMATION
put forth by so-called PATRIOT-MILITIA leaders.
The "We the People" constitution is not law or legal.
Today the "We the People" constitution is political doctrine
in the context of deception and ruse which is legal under the
Lieber code which is (one nation's) law of war which is a
branch of the law of nations which is roman based law.
Law of war (war powers) do not depend upon any constitution
to exist (be legal).
Read the TITLES index of the U.S. CODE; You will find the
sections of the "We the People" constitution that were
codified into military style code and regulation.
Read The U.S. Code. You will find the real authority for the;
1) The Congress
2) The President
3) Flag and Seal, seat of Government, and the States
(including political subdivisions, today's "STATES").
So on and so forth!
Any person or organization which states that the IRS has no
legal authority to collect taxes is a liar or ignorant of law, surety, suretyship,
matters of equity + or does not know lawful from legal.

Hitler's propaganda minister:
Joseph Goebbels is said to have said: "There is no need to
argue with the masses, slogans are much more effective.
Slogans are like strong drinks to people. The crowd doesnt
react like men but like women, who rely on their feelings,
rather than on intelligence if any, Propaganda is a great,
difficult and noble art,------

STATE OF GA. v. STANTON, 73 U.S. 50 (1867)<>The CHIEF JUSTICE
This court has no jurisdiction.-The distinction between
judicial and political power is so generally acknowledged in
the jurisprudence both of England and of this country, that
we need do no more than refer to some of the authorities on the subject.
The Attorney-General quite understates the effects of these
Reconstruction Acts. Their actual effect is to restrain at
once the holding of any election within the State for any [73
U.S. 50, 64] officers of the present State government by any
of the State authorities; to direct all future elections in
the State to be held under the direction of, and by officers
appointed by, the military commander; and that all persons of
certain classes described shall be the electors permitted to
vote at such election. It is, therefore, an immediate
paralysis of all the authority and power of the State
government by military force; a plain setting aside of the
present State government, and depriving it of the necessary
means of continuing its existence. It is substituting in its
place a new government, created under a new constitution, and
elected by a new and independent class of electors
But these defendants cannot compel the registration. These
laws compel no man in Georgia, black or white, to be
registered; nor do they authorize the military commander to
seize and punish any one for not going to the election. It is
left entirely to the citizens to decide for themselves
whether they shall be registered or not. You cannot very well
stop them. What next? An election is held. Who votes at the
election? Just who chooses. How do you know that anybody is
going to attend that election? [73 U.S. 50, 60] How do you
know that an election will be ordered, or that, if ordered,
Georgia is going to accept the offer made by Congress? The
people that the State of Georgia comes here to protect, can
protect themselves against all this mischief by not going to
the election, because the mischief is the election of a
government that is going to displace the existing government.
But suppose the people go to the election and vote for
delegates; the delegates are not obliged to go to the
convention; there is no law to punish them for not attending.

The CSA was a sovereign nation. This sovereign nation was
defeated in the highest court of the land; the battle fields
of the 1861-65 war. This defeat created a new source of law
for the victors (the Federal Union forces). This 1861-65 war
was fought under the law of nation's law of war and the common
law of war not any constitution.
