[00:00.000 --> 00:11.640] 31 people were killed Monday and 168 injured in an explosion at Moscow's busiest airport.
[00:11.640 --> 00:15.960] The cause is unknown, but the bomb was believed detonated by a suicide bomber.
[00:15.960 --> 00:21.040] The same airport was the point of origin for two suicide bombers in 2004 who detonated
[00:21.040 --> 00:25.760] their explosives in mid-flight, killing 88 people.
[00:25.760 --> 00:30.320] Inspired by the revolt in Tunisia, thousands of Yemenis, fed up with their president's
[00:30.320 --> 00:36.360] 32-year rule, demanded his ouster Saturday, the first large-scale public challenge to
[00:36.360 --> 00:37.360] the strongman.
[00:37.360 --> 00:42.800] In Tunisia, anti-government protesters joined by police marched through the capital, continuing
[00:42.800 --> 00:48.480] to put pressure on Prime Minister Mohamed Ghanouchi to quit.
[00:48.480 --> 00:53.520] Iran executed two members of an exiled opposition group Monday, but are alleged involvement
[00:53.520 --> 00:58.000] in unrest after the disputed 2009 presidential election.
[00:58.000 --> 01:02.680] The two were members of the Mujahideen cult organization and had filmed and distributed
[01:02.680 --> 01:07.880] footage of huge opposition protests that erupted in Iran after the vote.
[01:07.880 --> 01:13.560] Iran executed two people last year in connection with the unrest, charged with waging war against
[01:13.560 --> 01:16.240] God.
[01:16.240 --> 01:22.000] Thousands of documents detailing the deaths of 190 detainees in U.S. prisons in Iraq and
[01:22.000 --> 01:26.280] Afghanistan were released by the American Civil Liberties Union Friday.
[01:26.280 --> 01:31.000] The documents, provided under a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, reveal how four Iraqi
[01:31.000 --> 01:36.120] detainees were executed by a group of U.S. soldiers, then pushed into a Baghdad canal
[01:36.120 --> 01:37.120] in 2007.
[01:37.120 --> 01:41.920] In another case, a wounded detainee was killed by an unnamed sergeant who walked into the
[01:41.920 --> 01:46.880] room where the detainee was lying wounded and assaulted him, then shot him twice, thus
[01:46.880 --> 01:48.080] killing him.
[01:48.080 --> 01:53.040] The ACLU said, quote, so far the documents released by the government confirm one troubling
[01:53.040 --> 02:00.600] fact that no senior officials have been held to account for the widespread abuse of detainees.
[02:00.600 --> 02:05.520] In Britain, a former cabinet secretary said Saturday former Prime Minister Tony Blair
[02:05.520 --> 02:10.160] should be forced to release secret documents showing he lied to parliament over the Iraq
[02:10.160 --> 02:11.160] war.
[02:11.160 --> 02:15.560] Speaking anonymously, the senior civil servant said Blair was wrong to refuse to release
[02:15.560 --> 02:20.960] notes of discussions and memos concerning pledges made to George Bush before the Iraq
[02:20.960 --> 02:21.960] war.
[02:21.960 --> 02:26.800] Current cabinet secretary Sir Gus O'Donnell came under fire last week after announcing
[02:26.800 --> 02:29.680] Blair would not be forced to publish the documents.
[02:29.680 --> 02:33.480] The former cabinet secretary said, quote, it is unfair to all those who have lost loved
[02:33.480 --> 02:37.640] ones in Iraq and to the public to keep them secret.
[02:37.640 --> 02:42.800] Four cabinet secretaries spanned Blair's 10 years in office, Lord Butler, Lord Wilson,
[02:42.800 --> 02:45.280] Lord Turnbull and Sir Gus O'Donnell.
[02:45.280 --> 02:50.440] The Gus is expected to be grilled by the Iraq war inquiry for refusing to release files
[02:50.440 --> 03:20.360] containing details of talks between Bush and Blair.
[03:21.360 --> 03:50.360] Bad boys, whatcha gonna do, bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do,
[03:50.360 --> 03:56.160] bad boys, bad boys, whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do when they come for you, when you
[03:56.160 --> 04:01.760] were eight and you had bad dreams, you go to school and learn the golden rules, so why
[04:01.760 --> 04:02.760] are you...
[04:02.760 --> 04:03.760] All right, folks, good evening.
[04:03.760 --> 04:04.760] This is Rule of Law Radio.
[04:04.760 --> 04:05.760] This is Eddie Craig and Deborah Stevens.
[04:05.760 --> 04:06.760] It is January 24, 2011.
[04:06.760 --> 04:07.760] And on tonight's show, I'll be short and sweet up front.
[04:07.760 --> 04:19.760] But just to give you a review of what we're going to talk about tonight, for the past
[04:19.760 --> 04:27.560] two Saturdays of Brave New Books, we've more or less done some mock trial of what are and
[04:27.560 --> 04:35.160] cross-examination on how to ask questions, lay foundation and so on and so forth whenever
[04:35.160 --> 04:39.400] you're in court for a case.
[04:39.400 --> 04:41.160] Hopefully that's going well.
[04:41.160 --> 04:48.880] But while we were doing our little mock trial there, a lot of questioning developed where
[04:48.880 --> 04:56.160] we had the clerk of the court on the stand as the actual accuser in a criminal case.
[04:56.160 --> 04:59.280] Now how this comes to be is very simple.
[04:59.280 --> 05:04.320] The process, as it appears to function, at least here in Austin and several other large
[05:04.320 --> 05:07.240] municipalities, is this.
[05:07.240 --> 05:10.540] An officer issues a citation.
[05:10.540 --> 05:17.400] The officer also generates a police report in connection with that citation.
[05:17.400 --> 05:23.440] If the police report especially involves an accident.
[05:23.440 --> 05:29.720] Now there's multiple issues here as to who has the authority to issue a citation to begin
[05:29.720 --> 05:35.000] with because the rule of law in the authority of a police officer to arrest without warrant
[05:35.000 --> 05:37.600] is very specific.
[05:37.600 --> 05:46.280] The officer must have witnessed the event or it occurred in his general presence, meaning
[05:46.280 --> 05:56.880] within his hearing in a way that he could positively identify the cause and the actor.
[05:56.880 --> 06:03.080] Now in the case of issuing a citation at the scene of an accident, this is not the case.
[06:03.080 --> 06:08.680] The accident, the majority of the time, did not occur in the presence of the officer.
[06:08.680 --> 06:12.480] He wasn't even there.
[06:12.480 --> 06:19.720] And yet the officer will issue one or both parties a citation.
[06:19.720 --> 06:26.320] They didn't witness the event, it wasn't within their immediate presence, yet they put someone
[06:26.320 --> 06:33.160] into a custodial arrest without a warrant for the specific purpose of issuing them a
[06:33.160 --> 06:34.160] citation.
[06:34.160 --> 06:38.680] And if you've been listening to me for very long on this show, you know full well the
[06:38.680 --> 06:46.680] moment they begin the citation issuing process, Texas law says you are under a custodial arrest.
[06:46.680 --> 06:50.480] That's true if it's traffic and the citation is issued in accordance with the rules of
[06:50.480 --> 06:54.040] Chapter 543 Transportation Code.
[06:54.040 --> 06:59.260] That is true of a criminal offense that is brought out under the Code of Criminal Procedure
[06:59.260 --> 07:01.720] or the Penal Code.
[07:01.720 --> 07:12.440] Those are written in compliance with the provisions of 1406A, Subsection A and B, and 1406A, B
[07:12.440 --> 07:20.160] and C. And B and C are very clear that a citation can be issued in a Class C misdemeanor under
[07:20.160 --> 07:30.320] Subsection B or a Class A or B misdemeanor under Subsection C. So as you can see, officers
[07:30.320 --> 07:37.400] can issue citations in those specific types of misdemeanors, but the law says that his
[07:37.400 --> 07:47.280] authority to do it is based upon it being committed in his presence or his view.
[07:47.280 --> 07:51.240] Doesn't give him the authority to show up after the fact and make an arrest without
[07:51.240 --> 07:56.960] a warrant, but this is what they're doing.
[07:56.960 --> 08:26.920] They will issue the citation, the citation gets filed, anyway, the citation is issued
[08:26.920 --> 08:32.640] it's filed, a police report is issued also in the case of an accident, I haven't looked
[08:32.640 --> 08:39.280] to see whether or not there is one actually issued for every citation that's done.
[08:39.280 --> 08:46.360] But then, somehow or other, it appears that the information related to either the citation
[08:46.360 --> 08:53.640] or the police report or both winds up in the hands of a clerk of the court.
[08:53.640 --> 09:00.840] The clerk then takes the information in this format from either the citation or from the
[09:00.840 --> 09:08.920] police report or both and generates a criminal complaint and signs off on it.
[09:08.920 --> 09:19.320] Another clerk allegedly administers the oath to the first clerk who signed it as the complainant.
[09:19.320 --> 09:25.880] Now the first thing you need to understand is, whoever signed that complaint as the affiant,
[09:25.880 --> 09:33.760] that is your accuser who you have a right to face in a court of law.
[09:33.760 --> 09:38.960] That person never shows up for your trial, why?
[09:38.960 --> 09:43.760] Because you don't subpoena them as a witness.
[09:43.760 --> 09:50.360] But here's something I've noticed about the Austin Municipal Court, if they determined
[09:50.360 --> 09:58.040] that that clerk doesn't have any competent first-hand knowledge of the events of that
[09:58.040 --> 10:06.240] day, meaning they weren't there either, then the clerk is not allowed to appear in your
[10:06.240 --> 10:12.840] subpoena to pull them to trial to testify is denied by the court.
[10:12.840 --> 10:19.320] That is a direct denial of your right to face your accuser in court.
[10:19.320 --> 10:24.220] But that's still not even the biggest problem that the clerk is facing here.
[10:24.220 --> 10:31.320] The biggest problem is that the court itself cannot be the initiator of a criminal complaint,
[10:31.320 --> 10:40.480] just like the prosecutor's office cannot be the initiator of a criminal complaint.
[10:40.480 --> 10:45.360] Now the presumption has always been, well, the clerk is signing the complaint in their
[10:45.360 --> 10:47.720] personal capacity.
[10:47.720 --> 10:51.760] Well, no they're not.
[10:51.760 --> 10:54.960] And here's why they cannot be.
[10:54.960 --> 11:01.360] At the time the clerk signs the complaint, the clerk is being paid on the public payroll
[11:01.360 --> 11:04.000] by we the people.
[11:04.000 --> 11:12.360] The clerk, as a part of their official duties, is being directed to do the process of completing
[11:12.360 --> 11:17.700] these complaints and signing them for going to court.
[11:17.700 --> 11:21.240] They're on the payroll the entire time.
[11:21.240 --> 11:27.520] In fact, they are being paid through the entire day for doing exactly what they're doing,
[11:27.520 --> 11:31.480] generating criminal complaints.
[11:31.480 --> 11:36.840] Now this may only take up a part of their day, or it may be their entire work day every
[11:36.840 --> 11:38.880] time they go down there.
[11:38.880 --> 11:44.960] Now considering that by our estimation, based upon the numbers involved, there's somewhere
[11:44.960 --> 11:54.920] between 50,000 and 300,000 plus thousand citations a year issued just in Austin, Texas, I'm pretty
[11:54.920 --> 12:02.080] sure there's a dedicated number of clerks generating these criminal complaints.
[12:02.080 --> 12:09.520] Somebody is spending their entire day making these complaints for the record.
[12:09.520 --> 12:12.880] And they're getting paid for it.
[12:12.880 --> 12:14.460] Here's the problem.
[12:14.460 --> 12:20.240] The clerk can't claim they're spending their entire day doing this in a personal capacity
[12:20.240 --> 12:23.440] if they're getting paid with public funds.
[12:23.440 --> 12:26.240] They're not clocking out to sign the thing.
[12:26.240 --> 12:32.440] They've been directed to create the complaint by either their superiors or whoever's trained
[12:32.440 --> 12:36.080] in them or whoever gave them their duties for the day.
[12:36.080 --> 12:37.480] Here's a stack of police reports.
[12:37.480 --> 12:41.600] We need you to generate these criminal complaints from that stack of police reports or this
[12:41.600 --> 12:44.400] stack of citations.
[12:44.400 --> 12:48.800] And they're on the clock the whole time they're doing that.
[12:48.800 --> 12:57.360] There is no way they can do this and it not be embezzlement or misuse of public funds
[12:57.360 --> 13:07.040] if they are drawing a paycheck for doing something the entire time in their personal capacity.
[13:07.040 --> 13:12.200] If the clerks of the court are being paid to go shopping for their bosses the entire
[13:12.200 --> 13:16.000] day, is that a valid use of public funds?
[13:16.000 --> 13:20.360] I mean, after all, the clerk is having to act in their personal capacity while they're
[13:20.360 --> 13:22.000] out shopping.
[13:22.000 --> 13:25.960] They can't be out doing it in their official capacity.
[13:25.960 --> 13:32.480] Do you understand the problem yet?
[13:32.480 --> 13:39.340] We are being railroaded by a system designed to load us into the cattle car, to hook it
[13:39.340 --> 13:49.000] to the train, to put the train in motion and to drive us to the slaughterhouse called trial.
[13:49.000 --> 13:55.880] And it's all being done directly in violation of the due process rights of the individual.
[13:55.880 --> 14:02.980] It's all being done in the violation of the fact that neither the court system itself
[14:02.980 --> 14:10.760] can keep itself alive by generating cases to keep it active any more than the prosecutor's
[14:10.760 --> 14:16.080] office can generate cases for the purpose of keeping itself active.
[14:16.080 --> 14:22.200] It's a denial of due process.
[14:22.200 --> 14:28.360] If they do that, then it becomes a matter of the judge is a member of the court.
[14:28.360 --> 14:34.080] He is a member of the municipality in these cases or the county in these cases.
[14:34.080 --> 14:37.360] The clerk is also a member of the court.
[14:37.360 --> 14:41.640] The prosecutor is a member of the court, okay?
[14:41.640 --> 14:46.480] He's either the county attorney, the city attorney, or the district attorney.
[14:46.480 --> 14:52.800] But in these cases, we stick with county attorney and city attorney, all right?
[14:52.800 --> 14:57.600] But if it's the county doing it in all three positions in one or the city doing it in all
[14:57.600 --> 15:02.760] three positions in the other, is that not a denial of due process?
[15:02.760 --> 15:08.440] Are you not being prosecuted by the same entity from every side?
[15:08.440 --> 15:13.320] The county prosecutor, the county clerk, and the county judge.
[15:13.320 --> 15:18.200] The city prosecutor, the city clerk, and the city judge.
[15:18.200 --> 15:26.440] And it does not matter that they all claim to be acting in the name of the state.
[15:26.440 --> 15:31.880] My understanding of this is this is a claim of no harm.
[15:31.880 --> 15:38.640] The state is proclaimed to be the injured party but can't show any injury.
[15:38.640 --> 15:46.600] The people are the injured party because they're being railroaded down this system in a manner
[15:46.600 --> 15:51.600] the system itself specifically prohibits.
[15:51.600 --> 15:55.760] And yet it's what they're doing.
[15:55.760 --> 16:01.840] Now while it's true in Texas law that the person signing the complaint is not required
[16:01.840 --> 16:08.680] to have personal first-hand knowledge of the events in order to make the complaint.
[16:08.680 --> 16:12.600] They just have to believe that a crime is committed.
[16:12.600 --> 16:20.760] If that person is a paid professional complaint maker, we now have robo-signing in the criminal
[16:20.760 --> 16:25.360] complaint process just like we do in mortgage foreclosures.
[16:25.360 --> 16:28.000] The clerk has no first-hand knowledge.
[16:28.000 --> 16:33.400] The clerk is not even reading the case most of the time beyond the point of get this piece
[16:33.400 --> 16:37.040] of information, put it here in the complaint, get this piece of information, put it there
[16:37.040 --> 16:38.040] in the complaint.
[16:38.040 --> 16:45.880] That's all we're dealing with, robo-signing of criminal complaints and it's illegal and
[16:45.880 --> 16:46.880] it's unconstitutional.
[16:46.880 --> 16:49.440] All right folks, we're going to break.

[19:00.320 --> 19:30.000] All right, folks.
[19:30.000 --> 19:31.000] We are back.
[19:31.000 --> 19:32.000] Rule of Law Radio.
[19:32.000 --> 19:33.000] Any corrections?
[19:33.000 --> 19:34.000] I'm Steve, and you're welcome.
[19:34.000 --> 19:35.000] Okay.
[19:35.000 --> 19:40.200] Now, as you can see, what we're talking about here with the robo-signing of these criminal
[19:40.200 --> 19:46.320] complaints by these clerks as a part of their official duties, you understand that?
[19:46.320 --> 19:51.680] If these clerks are being paid to do this and they are being directed to do it by a
[19:51.680 --> 20:00.600] peer or superior, they're assigned to do it by someone for some part or all of their work
[20:00.600 --> 20:09.480] day, and they're getting a paycheck to do it, they cannot make the test to testify that
[20:09.480 --> 20:15.080] this was done in a personal capacity, because if this is how they spend their entire day,
[20:15.080 --> 20:17.160] that's misuse of public funds.
[20:17.160 --> 20:25.800] They're being paid professionally to act in a personal capacity using the people's money,
[20:25.800 --> 20:28.080] and that is not allowed.
[20:28.080 --> 20:29.360] Okay.
[20:29.360 --> 20:31.840] We have a couple of callers up on the board.
[20:31.840 --> 20:32.840] Javonna?
[20:32.840 --> 20:33.840] Javonna.
[20:33.840 --> 20:34.840] How you doing?
[20:34.840 --> 20:35.840] Did I say that right?
[20:35.840 --> 20:36.840] Yes, sir, you did.
[20:36.840 --> 20:37.840] Okay.
[20:37.840 --> 20:38.840] How can we help you?
[20:38.840 --> 20:45.560] Yes, I'm calling because my brother-in-law, Dominic Moinari, he told me to suggest that
[20:45.560 --> 20:50.280] I call because I'm unsure of a citation that I received.
[20:50.280 --> 21:03.360] On 12-31-2010, I took a right turn onto Intersection, and there were two officers stopped another
[21:03.360 --> 21:06.960] vehicle, so when I saw that, I was in a two-lane.
[21:06.960 --> 21:12.360] I moved to the further out lane, and the speed limit was 45, and I reduced it to 43.
[21:12.360 --> 21:22.360] Next thing I know, one of the officers stopped me, and he asked if I knew why I was stopped
[21:22.360 --> 21:28.920] being stopped for, and I told him I had no idea, and he stated because I did not reduce
[21:28.920 --> 21:29.920] my speed.
[21:29.920 --> 21:35.640] I said, well, I was on the other lane, the further one out, and he said that the only
[21:35.640 --> 21:40.600] way that I can proceed with my normal speed is if there was a third lane or a barrier,
[21:40.600 --> 21:44.760] so I didn't know if that was the case.
[21:44.760 --> 21:48.120] How close were you when you approached where the officers had pulled over before you had
[21:48.120 --> 21:50.600] the opportunity to adjust your speed?
[21:50.600 --> 21:53.600] I was pretty far away.
[21:53.600 --> 21:57.760] I can't... Maybe a car or two away.
[21:57.760 --> 21:59.960] How many other cars were around you?
[21:59.960 --> 22:02.320] There was one in front of me.
[22:02.320 --> 22:04.320] How far in front of you?
[22:04.320 --> 22:13.320] Let me see, about... I mean, we were far apart because I can't... I don't know exactly
[22:13.320 --> 22:18.400] how far, but I mean, I could see his car.
[22:18.400 --> 22:20.920] I wasn't like riding him or anything.
[22:20.920 --> 22:21.920] Right.
[22:21.920 --> 22:25.280] Well, when you say pretty far away, I'm not trying to see if you were tailgating somebody
[22:25.280 --> 22:26.280] or something.
[22:26.280 --> 22:30.680] I'm trying to see if there was a way for the officer to measure your speed to make such
[22:30.680 --> 22:31.680] an accusation.
[22:31.680 --> 22:40.880] I was like... I wasn't even paying attention all that soon as I saw that that was occurring.
[22:40.880 --> 22:48.560] My first instinct was to move my far the furthest out because they were close to the first lane,
[22:48.560 --> 22:53.040] so I immediately moved further out.
[22:53.040 --> 22:55.360] Do you happen to have the citation with you by any chance?
[22:55.360 --> 22:56.360] I do.
[22:56.360 --> 23:04.640] Does it give you any information on the citation regarding the specific code section they're
[23:04.640 --> 23:06.320] charging you with?
[23:06.320 --> 23:18.960] The only thing it says is violation or citation V101, passing authorized emergency vehicle.
[23:18.960 --> 23:21.440] Passing authorized emergency vehicle?
[23:21.440 --> 23:22.440] Yes.
[23:22.440 --> 23:23.440] All right.
[23:23.440 --> 23:29.400] Well, we'll have to look that up.
[23:29.400 --> 23:30.400] Okay.
[23:30.400 --> 23:36.400] Now, and that's what the actual charges is not speeding.
[23:36.400 --> 23:38.400] No, there's no speeding.
[23:38.400 --> 23:46.600] It's actually a printed sticker or a printed piece of paper, and it states where they're
[23:46.600 --> 23:51.640] from, who they are, police department, the violator's name, which could be mine.
[23:51.640 --> 23:54.640] Is it a computer-generated ticket?
[23:54.640 --> 23:55.640] Yes, correct.
[23:55.640 --> 24:00.600] If it's under violation, that's the only thing that it says, and then it just tells you where
[24:00.600 --> 24:03.920] the violation occurred.
[24:03.920 --> 24:05.880] Okay.
[24:05.880 --> 24:09.160] What kind of police officer issued it to you?
[24:09.160 --> 24:15.480] It was just a regular cop, I guess.
[24:15.480 --> 24:19.440] A city cop, a county sheriff's deputy, a constable?
[24:19.440 --> 24:20.920] A city cop.
[24:20.920 --> 24:21.920] Right.
[24:21.920 --> 24:32.360] All right, and he didn't actually give you a, let's see, all right, let's see what the
[24:32.360 --> 24:36.280] criteria of this particular charge is.
[24:36.280 --> 24:43.880] On approaching, it is section 545.157, passing authorized emergency vehicle.
[24:43.880 --> 24:49.320] Subsection A, on approaching a stationary authorized emergency vehicle using visual
[24:49.320 --> 24:58.480] signals that meet the requirements of sections 547.305 and 547.702, an operator, unless otherwise
[24:58.480 --> 25:04.120] directed by a police officer, shall vacate the lane closest to the emergency vehicle
[25:04.120 --> 25:08.240] when driving on a highway with two or more lanes traveling in the direction of the emergency
[25:08.240 --> 25:15.960] vehicle, or slow to a speed not to exceed 20 miles per hour, less than the posted speed
[25:15.960 --> 25:23.040] limit when the posted speed limit is 25 miles per hour or more, or five miles per hour when
[25:23.040 --> 25:27.440] the posted speed limit is less than 25 miles per hour.
[25:27.440 --> 25:35.360] A violation of this section is a misdemeanor punishable under section 542.401, a misdemeanor
[25:35.360 --> 25:42.440] punishable by a fine of $500 if the violation results in property damage, or a class B misdemeanor
[25:42.440 --> 25:46.000] if the violation results in bodily injury.
[25:46.000 --> 25:50.720] If conduct constituting an offense under this section also constitutes an offense under
[25:50.720 --> 25:55.040] another section of this code or the penal code, the actor may be prosecuted under either
[25:55.040 --> 25:57.320] section or under both sections.
[25:57.320 --> 26:01.920] Now you assert that you had already moved to the far left-hand lane from the officer,
[26:01.920 --> 26:02.920] correct?
[26:02.920 --> 26:03.920] Correct, oh yeah.
[26:03.920 --> 26:07.560] Then the officer violated law by the issuance of the citation.
[26:07.560 --> 26:12.640] This specifically says that you shall vacate the lane closest to the emergency vehicle
[26:12.640 --> 26:18.040] when driving on a highway with two or more lanes traveling in the direction of the emergency
[26:18.040 --> 26:19.040] vehicle.
[26:19.040 --> 26:20.920] How many lanes was the road?
[26:20.920 --> 26:21.920] Two.
[26:21.920 --> 26:25.120] Two going in the direction you were going?
[26:25.120 --> 26:28.120] No, no, no, four lanes, I'm sorry.
[26:28.120 --> 26:29.120] Okay.
[26:29.120 --> 26:32.200] Two ongoing and two incoming, so.
[26:32.200 --> 26:33.200] Right.
[26:33.200 --> 26:39.200] This says that you will do that or you will slow to a speed not to exceed.
[26:39.200 --> 26:43.920] If you had moved to the outside lane, the officer is not only dead wrong, the officer
[26:43.920 --> 26:48.840] himself committed a crime by acting in violation of law.
[26:48.840 --> 26:56.200] Now let's go down and look at 542.401, or up in this particular case I should say, and
[26:56.200 --> 27:00.240] see what else this brings to us here.
[27:00.240 --> 27:01.240] And we'll do this.
[27:01.240 --> 27:04.040] Hang on just a second, the Internet's being kind of slow.
[27:04.040 --> 27:11.480] But let's see what 542.401 actually tells us in relation to this charge as well.
[27:11.480 --> 27:18.880] But yeah, the code is very clear that you can do either or not, it does not require
[27:18.880 --> 27:20.240] you to do both.
[27:20.240 --> 27:21.240] Okay.
[27:21.240 --> 27:22.240] So.
[27:22.240 --> 27:24.240] Now we do have a question.
[27:24.240 --> 27:29.880] Let's say, because today I went to court and I'm having to have a court date and it's
[27:29.880 --> 27:38.880] in March, and let's say that I, the lady stated, the clerk stated that if I was plead guilty
[27:38.880 --> 27:48.160] that I cannot do defensive or defer, none of that, does that, I mean, because now it's
[27:48.160 --> 27:49.160] like if I go.
[27:49.160 --> 27:50.160] If you plead guilty.
[27:50.160 --> 27:51.160] Right.
[27:51.160 --> 27:52.160] Well that's true.
[27:52.160 --> 28:00.960] Sorry, right, but now like let's say if I go up to the, to the judge and it's now my
[28:00.960 --> 28:06.160] word against theirs, you know, against the officer, so it's kind of.
[28:06.160 --> 28:09.200] Well it's not a matter of your word against theirs.
[28:09.200 --> 28:14.040] You need to know how to couch the questions to directly get the officer in the position
[28:14.040 --> 28:18.960] to admit, well she had already moved to the outside lane when I stopped her.
[28:18.960 --> 28:19.960] Right.
[28:19.960 --> 28:25.400] So if you're getting to admit that, then you demand for an immediate dismissal because
[28:25.400 --> 28:28.760] the officer is misrepresenting what the law states.
[28:28.760 --> 28:35.800] The section you're charged under very clearly says under 545.157, and you need to write
[28:35.800 --> 28:36.800] that down.
[28:36.800 --> 28:37.800] Okay.
[28:37.800 --> 28:45.640] That as long as you've moved to the outside lane, that's all that's required.
[28:45.640 --> 28:50.840] You only have to go down below the posted speed limit if you have to remain in the lane
[28:50.840 --> 28:54.000] next to the stopped vehicle.
[28:54.000 --> 28:56.040] Right.
[28:56.040 --> 28:58.400] Okay.
[28:58.400 --> 29:04.160] So you can take section 545.157 and a copy of the citation.
[29:04.160 --> 29:09.680] You can go to the prosecutor's office and you can show him, you see this right here?
[29:09.680 --> 29:13.760] The officer lied in order to issue this citation.
[29:13.760 --> 29:16.400] The citation is fraudulent.
[29:16.400 --> 29:22.280] When I get your officer on the stand, I'm going to make him admit it was fraudulent.
[29:22.280 --> 29:29.040] And when I do that, I'm going to sue him, and you, and the judge for malicious prosecution.
[29:29.040 --> 29:30.040] Okay.
[29:30.040 --> 29:31.040] Okay.
[29:31.040 --> 29:32.040] Okay.
[29:32.040 --> 29:33.040] Okay.
[29:33.040 --> 29:34.040] Okay.
[29:34.040 --> 29:35.040] Thank you so much.
[29:35.040 --> 29:36.040] I appreciate that.
[29:36.040 --> 29:37.040] You're very welcome.
[29:37.040 --> 29:40.040] All right, folks.
[29:40.040 --> 29:45.760] This is Rule of Law Radio, Ever Stevens, Eddie Kelton, Eddie Craig.
[29:45.760 --> 29:51.120] We're about to go to break 512-646-1984 is the call-in number.
[29:51.120 --> 29:54.240] We are ready to take your call, so give us a holler.
[29:54.240 --> 30:00.160] We will talk to you here on the other side of the break.
[30:00.160 --> 30:01.160] I lost my son.
[30:01.160 --> 30:02.160] My nephew.
[30:02.160 --> 30:03.160] My uncle.
[30:03.160 --> 30:04.160] My son.
[30:04.160 --> 30:05.160] On September 11th, 2001.
[30:05.160 --> 30:08.440] Most people don't know that a third tower fell on September 11th.
[30:08.440 --> 30:12.600] World Trade Center 7, a 47-story skyscraper, was not hit by a plane.
[30:12.600 --> 30:18.440] Although the official explanation is that fire brought down Building 7, over 1,200 architects
[30:18.440 --> 30:22.200] and engineers have looked into the evidence and believe there is more to the story.
[30:22.200 --> 30:23.680] Bring justice to my son.
[30:23.680 --> 30:24.680] My uncle.
[30:24.680 --> 30:25.680] My nephew.
[30:25.680 --> 30:26.680] My son.
[30:26.680 --> 30:27.680] Go to buildingwatch.org.
[30:27.680 --> 30:30.680] Why it fell, why it matters, and what you can do.
[30:30.680 --> 30:38.160] The U.S. Constitution gave Congress the power to establish the Postal Service, but mismanagement
[30:38.160 --> 30:39.640] is threatening to snatch it away.
[30:39.640 --> 30:43.600] I'm Dr. Catherine Albrecht, and I'll be back in just a moment with news of the financial
[30:43.600 --> 30:47.400] hemorrhage that threatens the U.S. Postal Service.
[30:47.400 --> 30:49.000] Privacy is under attack.
[30:49.000 --> 30:52.600] When you give up data about yourself, you'll never get it back again.
[30:52.600 --> 30:57.360] And once your privacy is gone, you'll find your freedoms will start to vanish, too.
[30:57.360 --> 31:02.400] So protect your rights, say no to surveillance, and keep your information to yourself.
[31:02.400 --> 31:03.400] Privacy.
[31:03.400 --> 31:05.120] It's worth hanging on to.
[31:05.120 --> 31:09.400] This public service announcement is brought to you by StartPage.com, the private search
[31:09.400 --> 31:12.960] engine alternative to Google, Yahoo, and Bing.
[31:12.960 --> 31:16.520] Start over with StartPage.
[31:16.520 --> 31:21.440] Neither snow nor rain nor poor financial planning has kept the U.S. Postal Service from making
[31:21.440 --> 31:28.320] its rounds so far, but this privatized government agency has lost billions, $9 billion in 2010
[31:28.320 --> 31:29.320] alone.
[31:29.320 --> 31:32.720] The U.S. Treasury has been coming to the rescue, but it looks like the Postal Service will
[31:32.720 --> 31:37.520] exceed its $15 billion credit line this year, and that could mean trouble.
[31:37.520 --> 31:42.440] The Constitution spells out the federal government's power to establish post offices and post roads,
[31:42.440 --> 31:44.000] and for good reason.
[31:44.000 --> 31:48.480] Mail service is essential to liberty, and private companies couldn't financially justify
[31:48.480 --> 31:49.480] serving everyone.
[31:49.480 --> 31:55.320] So let's keep universal postal service alive and demand responsible management of the mails.
[31:55.320 --> 31:57.320] I'm Dr. Catherine Albrecht.
[31:57.320 --> 32:04.320] More news and information at CatherineAlbrecht.com.
[32:04.320 --> 32:27.840] All right, folks, we are back on Little Law Radio.
[32:27.840 --> 32:34.760] The 542.401 that is referenced in the other statute is just the general penalty phase
[32:34.760 --> 32:37.280] under subchapter D of the transportation code.
[32:37.280 --> 32:40.840] A person convicted of an offense that is a misdemeanor under this subtitle for which
[32:40.840 --> 32:46.280] another penalty is not provided shall be punished by a fine of not less than $1 or more than
[32:46.280 --> 32:47.800] $200.
[32:47.800 --> 32:53.600] So that's the only other attachment there that would be considered for Genova's purposes,
[32:53.600 --> 32:58.960] but you really need to go after this officer for issuing a false citation.
[32:58.960 --> 33:01.480] Okay, we have D in Illinois.
[33:01.480 --> 33:04.480] D, what can we do for you?
[33:04.480 --> 33:05.480] Hello?
[33:05.480 --> 33:06.480] D, are you there?
[33:06.480 --> 33:07.480] Nope, looks like not.
[33:07.480 --> 33:08.480] Okay, D dropped off.
[33:08.480 --> 33:09.480] Let's go to James in Texas.
[33:09.480 --> 33:24.480] James, how can we help you?
[33:24.480 --> 33:32.840] Yes, sir, I've allowed myself to get on the Omnibase.
[33:32.840 --> 33:33.840] What is this?
[33:33.840 --> 33:34.840] Omnibase.
[33:34.840 --> 33:44.800] I didn't show up for court and I guess they put a warrant out and now I can't get my driver's
[33:44.800 --> 33:51.240] license renewed or get insurance on my vehicle without paying a bunch of money and I was
[33:51.240 --> 33:55.640] wondering if there's anything I could do other than pay a bunch of money.
[33:55.640 --> 34:04.760] Okay, first off, what kind of case was it that you were supposed to go to court for?
[34:04.760 --> 34:15.840] That was, oh, not having my, what do you call it, the registration.
[34:15.840 --> 34:16.840] Not having registration.
[34:16.840 --> 34:22.160] Yes, that wasn't up to date, so I got a ticket for that and my driver's license had expired
[34:22.160 --> 34:28.640] say three weeks ago, or not three weeks ago, three weeks after before I got the ticket
[34:28.640 --> 34:33.440] and then I went out of town and totally forgot all about it and by the time I got back it
[34:33.440 --> 34:36.640] was a warrant and had gone to Omnibase.
[34:36.640 --> 34:40.960] Okay, when did you get the ticket?
[34:40.960 --> 34:45.600] Well, September, August.
[34:45.600 --> 34:46.600] Just past September?
[34:46.600 --> 34:47.600] Yes, sir.
[34:47.600 --> 34:48.600] Okay.
[34:48.600 --> 34:55.320] Well, the first thing is you definitely need to go to court and make them drop the ticket
[34:55.320 --> 34:57.400] or prosecute you properly.
[34:57.400 --> 34:58.400] Okay.
[34:58.400 --> 35:03.760] Here's the problem I see with what they're doing.
[35:03.760 --> 35:10.920] By putting in the information that denies you the ability to do this without the case
[35:10.920 --> 35:15.120] having been adjudicated, they're punishing you without a conviction.
[35:15.120 --> 35:17.120] This is correct.
[35:17.120 --> 35:18.120] Okay.
[35:18.120 --> 35:22.080] Now, this hasn't been tried in court, of course.
[35:22.080 --> 35:25.760] Most people don't try to go and fight this for any reason, so it hasn't been tried in
[35:25.760 --> 35:26.760] court.
[35:26.760 --> 35:27.760] Right.
[35:27.760 --> 35:34.360] But the fact is that they are inducing a punishment for something you have not yet been convicted
[35:34.360 --> 35:35.360] of.
[35:35.360 --> 35:44.000] Now, that in and of itself should bring the bells of problems and wave bright red flags
[35:44.000 --> 35:45.000] to everyone.
[35:45.000 --> 35:49.560] How can I be punished when I haven't even been convicted of this?
[35:49.560 --> 35:58.600] I mean, let's face it, even murderers aren't punished at the DMV because they haven't gone
[35:58.600 --> 36:03.680] to trial yet.
[36:03.680 --> 36:07.320] But the fact of the matter is that's the problem.
[36:07.320 --> 36:08.800] So you need to go to court.
[36:08.800 --> 36:12.200] You need to get them to set a court date for you.
[36:12.200 --> 36:15.120] Now, here's the other thing.
[36:15.120 --> 36:17.200] How long have you been listening to the show?
[36:17.200 --> 36:19.840] A couple years.
[36:19.840 --> 36:25.560] So you know at this point what you should be doing as far as when you deal with these
[36:25.560 --> 36:29.360] people and what you should be paying attention to, correct?
[36:29.360 --> 36:32.640] Usually, yeah.
[36:32.640 --> 36:33.640] What exactly is usually?
[36:33.640 --> 36:40.680] Well, I mean, yes, I do pay attention most of the time.
[36:40.680 --> 36:41.680] Okay.
[36:41.680 --> 36:45.880] But you know what the process is you're about to go through and how you need to document
[36:45.880 --> 36:48.960] it and keep track of it, right?
[36:48.960 --> 36:52.000] You're going to go down and say, I need to get a court date set for this.
[36:52.000 --> 36:57.520] I was out of town when all this occurred and now I'm trying to get my stuff caught up and
[36:57.520 --> 37:00.240] you guys won't let me do it so I need a court date.
[37:00.240 --> 37:01.240] All right.
[37:01.240 --> 37:05.840] But you're recording this when you do it and you don't let the clerk of the court give
[37:05.840 --> 37:08.720] you guff stating, well, you've already been found guilty.
[37:08.720 --> 37:09.720] That's baloney.
[37:09.720 --> 37:10.720] Right.
[37:10.720 --> 37:11.720] Okay.
[37:11.720 --> 37:14.720] Okay.
[37:14.720 --> 37:16.800] So get a court date set up for it.
[37:16.800 --> 37:17.800] Check the court file.
[37:17.800 --> 37:19.400] See what's in it.
[37:19.400 --> 37:24.200] Is everything that's supposed to be there, there?
[37:24.200 --> 37:29.680] Now be aware that if they issued a warrant, odds are you're going to have to have bond
[37:29.680 --> 37:32.400] or bail money when you go down there.
[37:32.400 --> 37:33.880] Right.
[37:33.880 --> 37:35.480] Okay.
[37:35.480 --> 37:40.360] So try to make arrangements for that ahead of time.
[37:40.360 --> 37:43.360] Take some cash with you.
[37:43.360 --> 37:44.360] Yeah.
[37:44.360 --> 37:48.600] And remember that it's going to be double whatever the fines would have been if the
[37:48.600 --> 37:52.800] judge does what they usually do.
[37:52.800 --> 37:58.280] The problem with this for them, however, is there's no authority in law for them to issue
[37:58.280 --> 38:04.520] a citation for failure to appear on a Class C misdemeanor citation.
[38:04.520 --> 38:11.160] Now 543 Transportation Code says the person that doesn't appear is guilty of, but it doesn't
[38:11.160 --> 38:15.520] say what they're guilty of other than just a misdemeanor.
[38:15.520 --> 38:18.520] It doesn't say they're guilty of failure to appear.
[38:18.520 --> 38:25.000] It says they're guilty of a misdemeanor, but it doesn't define what misdemeanor.
[38:25.000 --> 38:30.160] But when you go through the process under 1517 that shows that's where they're required
[38:30.160 --> 38:39.200] to act upon the citation that was issued and perform their due diligence under 1517A, they
[38:39.200 --> 38:47.480] actually have to invoke 1517G as in George first because that's where it says a person
[38:47.480 --> 38:56.680] that is showing up in compliance with the citation under so and so in a Class B or Class
[38:56.680 --> 39:04.680] C misdemeanor or a Class A or B misdemeanor should have everything in this section done
[39:04.680 --> 39:07.200] as a matter of law.
[39:07.200 --> 39:15.240] But it goes on to say only those guilty of a Class A or B misdemeanor that fail to show
[39:15.240 --> 39:18.120] may have a warrant issued for their arrest.
[39:18.120 --> 39:22.320] So they just do it with a C?
[39:22.320 --> 39:27.560] They just do it because they make the presumption that it applies to all misdemeanors that they
[39:27.560 --> 39:28.560] can do that.
[39:28.560 --> 39:30.880] That is not what the law says.
[39:30.880 --> 39:34.360] Not in 1517G, right?
[39:34.360 --> 39:35.360] Correct.
[39:35.360 --> 39:44.000] I don't know what else to ask, but I'll try this first.
[39:44.000 --> 39:45.000] Okay.
[39:45.000 --> 39:50.200] So give that a shot and after you get the information about what is in your court file
[39:50.200 --> 39:54.440] then give us another call and let's talk about what is or isn't in there.
[39:54.440 --> 39:56.320] Thank you, sir.
[39:56.320 --> 39:59.320] You're very welcome.
[39:59.320 --> 40:00.320] All right.
[40:00.320 --> 40:01.320] Thanks, James, for calling in.
[40:01.320 --> 40:03.480] Now we have Steve in Texas.
[40:03.480 --> 40:04.480] Hi, Steve.
[40:04.480 --> 40:12.200] How can we help you?
[40:12.200 --> 40:13.200] I can't hear you, Steve.
[40:13.200 --> 40:14.660] How can we help you?
[40:14.660 --> 40:22.280] I still can't hear you.
[40:22.280 --> 40:28.080] I can barely hear the sound of your voice.
[40:28.080 --> 40:36.960] Well, Steve dropped off the line also, maybe he'll call right back in, he just about had
[40:36.960 --> 40:39.360] a bad connection or something.
[40:39.360 --> 40:44.520] Okay, now let's go back for just a minute while we're waiting on callers on the board
[40:44.520 --> 40:51.320] and for those of you that are out there listening, if you want to call in, 512-646-1984 is the
[40:51.320 --> 40:54.880] call in number.
[40:54.880 --> 41:00.000] The issue with the clerk of the court on the criminal complaints, as we said, is a cause
[41:00.000 --> 41:02.680] of real concern.
[41:02.680 --> 41:07.360] This makes the court itself virtually self-sustaining.
[41:07.360 --> 41:14.480] They can generate criminal complaints all day long to ensure that people are brought
[41:14.480 --> 41:20.820] into court and the clerk of the court is swearing out a complaint that says, I have reason to
[41:20.820 --> 41:25.720] believe and do believe that the accused committed this act.
[41:25.720 --> 41:32.360] So one of the questions that was asked in our little mock trial there was, how do you
[41:32.360 --> 41:40.160] make the determination, Ms. Clerk, that the information on the citation or in the police
[41:40.160 --> 41:45.240] report is accurate and true?
[41:45.240 --> 41:52.160] Well, the problem is there isn't any way for the clerk to do that.
[41:52.160 --> 42:01.560] They are operating on a presumption the information is correct, but they have no first-hand knowledge
[42:01.560 --> 42:08.160] to the facts in the written document.
[42:08.160 --> 42:12.440] So where does that leave us?
[42:12.440 --> 42:19.840] If the clerk is generating complaints based on faulty citations and faulty police reports,
[42:19.840 --> 42:24.400] the clerk is the one responsible for bringing somebody to court.
[42:24.400 --> 42:29.800] Now here's the issue, as Randy has brought up, you cannot be held accountable for generating
[42:29.800 --> 42:33.200] a criminal complaint in Texas.
[42:33.200 --> 42:38.600] Well, under normal circumstances, I would agree with that.
[42:38.600 --> 42:44.800] That's to protect the person making the complaint so that they can have no reason to fear repercussions
[42:44.800 --> 42:50.020] against them for reporting a crime.
[42:50.020 --> 42:56.840] But in this particular case, the issue is that the person testifying to the complaint
[42:56.840 --> 43:03.080] and its veracity is getting paid for it.
[43:03.080 --> 43:12.480] They're on the payroll, on the clock, and they're getting paid to generate these complaints.
[43:12.480 --> 43:16.320] And they have no concern or consideration for whether or not the information they're
[43:16.320 --> 43:21.720] using is true and correct.
[43:21.720 --> 43:27.080] Now granted, they should be able to have the presumption that the police officer as being
[43:27.080 --> 43:34.680] the one generating these things has told the truth, but we all know that is not the way
[43:34.680 --> 43:35.680] it works.
[43:35.680 --> 43:36.680] Okay?
[43:36.680 --> 43:40.240] All right, Steve is back on the line.
[43:40.240 --> 43:41.240] Hang in there, Steve.
[43:41.240 --> 43:42.240] We're about to go to break.
[43:42.240 --> 43:44.600] I will get you back up on the other side here.
[43:44.600 --> 43:51.840] This is Rule of Law Radio, Eddie Craig, Randy Compton, Denver Stevens, 512-646-1984 is the

[45:11.520 --> 45:17.960] The team behind Centrition believes that supplements should over-deliver on their promises.
[45:17.960 --> 45:21.920] And Centrition does just that.
[45:21.920 --> 45:25.600] Centrition utilizes the ancient healing wisdom of Chinese medicine.
[45:25.600 --> 45:30.440] In conjunction with the science of modern nutrition, adaptogenic herbs serve as the
[45:30.440 --> 45:31.920] healing component.

[46:57.360 --> 47:01.800] All right, folks.
[47:01.800 --> 47:02.800] We are back.
[47:02.800 --> 47:03.800] Rule of Law Radio.
[47:03.800 --> 47:04.800] All right.
[47:04.800 --> 47:06.760] It looks like we managed to get Steve back.
[47:06.760 --> 47:08.880] So Steve, how can we help you?
[47:08.880 --> 47:12.800] Yeah, that was a fluke I dropped off over there, but we love you down here and I'm spreading
[47:12.800 --> 47:13.800] the word on y'all.
[47:13.800 --> 47:18.920] But yeah, I got several tickets over the course of several years.
[47:18.920 --> 47:24.000] Had them all adjudicated and then extended on time and had them all traffic-safetied
[47:24.000 --> 47:30.040] out, hired this local lawyer to get them all adjudicated and traffic-safetied so they can
[47:30.040 --> 47:33.640] get the mafia, can get their cut, and then I'd be all off my record.
[47:33.640 --> 47:39.280] Well, due to a series of tentative events, I wasn't able to make any of my agreements.
[47:39.280 --> 47:43.880] And now that I'm listening to you guys and finding out how illegal all these tickets
[47:43.880 --> 47:50.680] were to begin with, but now there's a warrant down for my arrest, APD be knocking on my
[47:50.680 --> 47:52.480] door any day.
[47:52.480 --> 47:56.200] And well, one thing I learned that you can't even, don't let them in the house.
[47:56.200 --> 47:57.200] That's for one thing.
[47:57.200 --> 47:59.920] The last time I let them in, I had my lawyer on the other line and they were knocking at
[47:59.920 --> 48:00.920] the door.
[48:00.920 --> 48:05.040] And when I got his paralegal on there, he couldn't even tell me what to do.
[48:05.040 --> 48:06.040] I said, what do I do?
[48:06.040 --> 48:07.040] Do I let them in?
[48:07.040 --> 48:08.040] Do I let them take me?
[48:08.040 --> 48:10.880] And he says, well, yeah, you're going to have to.
[48:10.880 --> 48:14.920] So being the fool that I was, I let them take me down for eight hours and I stayed out in
[48:14.920 --> 48:15.920] that blue room.
[48:15.920 --> 48:16.920] And I don't want them doing that now.
[48:16.920 --> 48:17.920] I'm getting on my feet again.
[48:17.920 --> 48:18.920] And you know, it's up to a thousand now.
[48:18.920 --> 48:23.120] They're going to tell you to make an agreement and don't pay them, it goes up to another
[48:23.120 --> 48:27.600] 50, 80 bucks and then DPS gets their little cut and you know, everyone want it, but the
[48:27.600 --> 48:28.600] grandmother wants a cut.
[48:28.600 --> 48:29.600] Yeah.
[48:29.600 --> 48:30.600] That's the problem with it.
[48:30.600 --> 48:32.280] But now here's the thing.
[48:32.280 --> 48:37.480] If you had all these non-adjudicated out and you signed contracts to that effect, you're
[48:37.480 --> 48:39.480] bound to the terms of those contracts.
[48:39.480 --> 48:40.480] Yeah.
[48:40.480 --> 48:41.480] Yeah.
[48:41.480 --> 48:46.000] At this point, this is all about an agreement previously made.
[48:46.000 --> 48:53.720] Now you can go back and state that the agreement itself is based on fraud, but guess what?
[48:53.720 --> 48:59.680] That means you have to sue whoever issued the citations and the city and the court and
[48:59.680 --> 49:01.800] everybody involved.
[49:01.800 --> 49:08.960] And if you don't know what you're arguing here, that's not going to pan out very well.
[49:08.960 --> 49:13.240] That'd be in the form of like some sort of injunction or similar to?
[49:13.240 --> 49:14.240] No.
[49:14.240 --> 49:19.280] No, it would be a civil lawsuit to get all of the stuff thrown out.
[49:19.280 --> 49:26.480] The problem is, is if you do it and you fail, you set really bad precedent for somebody
[49:26.480 --> 49:30.240] else to have to follow up on.
[49:30.240 --> 49:34.580] If you don't make the right argument, and I guarantee you, you're not going to find
[49:34.580 --> 49:38.800] an attorney to do this for you, which means you're going to have to do it yourself.
[49:38.800 --> 49:43.440] Unless I'm going to need a liar, I'll just pro-say it.
[49:43.440 --> 49:45.600] Well, again, be careful with that.
[49:45.600 --> 49:48.040] Know what you're arguing and why you're arguing it.
[49:48.040 --> 49:49.040] Yeah.
[49:49.040 --> 49:50.040] Okay?
[49:50.040 --> 49:51.040] Yeah.
[49:51.040 --> 49:58.040] The point being that right now, you are where you are because you signed off on actual agreements.
[49:58.040 --> 50:00.960] I don't agree with the fact that they make you do that.
[50:00.960 --> 50:04.720] I don't agree with the fact that they did it in the first place, but that is what it
[50:04.720 --> 50:06.160] is for all it's worth.
[50:06.160 --> 50:07.160] Yeah, sir.
[50:07.160 --> 50:12.000] Yeah, it was all kinds of stuff that wasn't even right.
[50:12.000 --> 50:19.440] From the speed limits to the illegal towing to the inspection sticker that's now $380.
[50:19.440 --> 50:20.440] Right.
[50:20.440 --> 50:24.400] That you don't need to have when to begin with.
[50:24.400 --> 50:29.440] Well, the problem also is that it wouldn't have mattered if they had gone through and
[50:29.440 --> 50:32.400] hit you with these, the cost on all this would have went up anyway.
[50:32.400 --> 50:35.600] See, that's another problem with the way they're doing it right now.
[50:35.600 --> 50:40.920] The court reports that they convicted you and fined you, and then you are held to pay
[50:40.920 --> 50:45.200] more fines in addition to what the jury found you guilty of.
[50:45.200 --> 50:46.200] Yeah.
[50:46.200 --> 50:49.880] Now, that right there, that's a problem.
[50:49.880 --> 50:56.000] They're attaching surcharges and extra fees and extra fines outside of the venue of the
[50:56.000 --> 50:58.320] court.
[50:58.320 --> 51:01.160] There's something inherently wrong with that.
[51:01.160 --> 51:06.080] I was found guilty by a jury and I was fined $110.
[51:06.080 --> 51:12.280] Where does the DPS now get the authority to fine me another $800 over four years?
[51:12.280 --> 51:15.400] Yes, sir.
[51:15.400 --> 51:21.480] This is exactly why, people, we're not required to have those licenses.
[51:21.480 --> 51:27.560] This is how they tax you to death through an illegal tax that they're not allowed to
[51:27.560 --> 51:30.140] lay upon us to begin with.
[51:30.140 --> 51:32.200] This is how they're getting away with it.
[51:32.200 --> 51:36.440] They couldn't get their hands on this money if they didn't rig this system for that purpose.
[51:36.440 --> 51:41.840] Well, now I'm riding a bicycle and I have a sticker that these Moonlight riders gave
[51:41.840 --> 51:42.840] me that says paying taxes.
[51:42.840 --> 51:47.840] Every time someone accuses me of not paying, I tell them, yes, you are.
[51:47.840 --> 51:52.520] Whether you want to be or not.
[51:52.520 --> 51:57.320] Is there anything specific you wanted to ask regarding this, Steve?
[51:57.320 --> 52:02.400] Well, you pretty much rolled it up in a tortilla.
[52:02.400 --> 52:08.600] Well, now I know what to do and must show up and hit them with affidavits and motions.
[52:08.600 --> 52:11.400] You tell the court, basically telling the court what to do.
[52:11.400 --> 52:13.480] My finances come into play.
[52:13.480 --> 52:17.960] I'll be able to spend time with the seminar and the jurisdictionary class.
[52:17.960 --> 52:23.480] Twice a Sunday, if I have to, that's where I'm headed and I'm trying to back here to
[52:23.480 --> 52:28.080] the entertainment industry down here, so I'm spreading the word everywhere I go.
[52:28.080 --> 52:29.080] Okay, well, good.
[52:29.080 --> 52:33.680] If you have the opportunity, I'd highly recommend you come to Brave New Books on Saturdays from
[52:33.680 --> 52:38.480] 3 to 6 while I'm here in town and go through the courses down there.
[52:38.480 --> 52:39.480] Yeah, yeah.
[52:39.480 --> 52:45.200] Sergeant Sam Cox, I got on there in Kelby Day and every time he says that driving is
[52:45.200 --> 52:47.440] a privilege, I try to tell them they don't want to hear it.
[52:47.440 --> 52:48.440] They just drop me off.
[52:48.440 --> 52:53.400] When I try to tell them that it's not a privilege, we have a right to travel on a skateboard,
[52:53.400 --> 52:58.440] bicycle, back up a donkey if we have to, and before I can get to the end of the sentence,
[52:58.440 --> 53:00.920] they'll just drop me off every time he brings that up.
[53:00.920 --> 53:01.920] Right.
[53:01.920 --> 53:07.440] You know, the problem with our public servants is they're willfully ignorant of the facts.
[53:07.440 --> 53:11.640] His job is to collect money on behalf of the city.
[53:11.640 --> 53:13.760] It's not to enforce law.
[53:13.760 --> 53:16.200] It's not to protect the rights of the people.
[53:16.200 --> 53:18.600] It's to be a revenue-generating workhorse.
[53:18.600 --> 53:19.600] Yeah.
[53:19.600 --> 53:24.280] Yeah, I told him, just like our elected officials don't read the bills they pass, police don't
[53:24.280 --> 53:27.640] read the transportation code, and then he says, well, you need to read the transportation
[53:27.640 --> 53:28.640] code.
[53:28.640 --> 53:35.120] And I told him to class C, license means commercial, and he said, it's called the CDL, and then
[53:35.120 --> 53:36.120] they hung up on me.
[53:36.120 --> 53:39.120] Hey, well, thanks for your time.
[53:39.120 --> 53:40.120] Yes, sir.
[53:40.120 --> 53:41.120] No problem.
[53:41.120 --> 53:42.120] Thanks for calling in.
[53:42.120 --> 53:43.120] Yeah, yes, sir.
[53:43.120 --> 53:44.120] All right.
[53:44.120 --> 53:45.120] Bye-bye.
[53:45.120 --> 53:46.120] All right.
[53:46.120 --> 53:47.120] Let's go to Brad in Texas.
[53:47.120 --> 53:49.120] Brad, how can we help you?
[53:49.120 --> 53:50.120] Yes, sir.
[53:50.120 --> 53:55.320] I actually, I've heard you several times on the radio, and I've wanted to call in.
[53:55.320 --> 53:57.280] Just didn't have the opportunity to get an out.
[53:57.280 --> 54:01.880] Do you represent people in court as well?
[54:01.880 --> 54:02.880] Can I legally?
[54:02.880 --> 54:08.440] According to the laws of Texas, yes, because there's no law against it.
[54:08.440 --> 54:10.640] Will they allow me to do it?
[54:10.640 --> 54:11.640] Absolutely not.
[54:11.640 --> 54:15.680] That would be treading in the domain of the liars that just are there to steal your money,
[54:15.680 --> 54:17.680] not to help you out.
[54:17.680 --> 54:18.680] Right.
[54:18.680 --> 54:19.680] What kind of classes?
[54:19.680 --> 54:24.680] I just heard the last caller, he spoke about that you get classes.
[54:24.680 --> 54:26.680] Is that in Austin, Texas?
[54:26.680 --> 54:27.680] Yeah.
[54:27.680 --> 54:32.920] I'm in Austin right now, and every Saturday at Brave New Books from 3 to 6, we go over
[54:32.920 --> 54:37.320] things about how to handle things in court.
[54:37.320 --> 54:42.240] We go over the various laws, including the transportation code.
[54:42.240 --> 54:48.520] That's what we use for examples in most of our case recitations down there, is the transportation
[54:48.520 --> 54:49.520] code.
[54:49.520 --> 54:53.400] That's because that's where most people are going to wind up going to court, is involving
[54:53.400 --> 54:54.920] the transportation code.
[54:54.920 --> 55:00.440] They'll go because of citations, but we go over the code of criminal procedure, we go
[55:00.440 --> 55:07.160] over the various alleged violations of the transportation code, so on and so forth, and
[55:07.160 --> 55:14.180] show exactly where, just like the first caller we had tonight, the officer lied in what he
[55:14.180 --> 55:16.840] accused her of and charged her with.
[55:16.840 --> 55:23.000] The law does not say what the officer told her it did or what he cited her for.
[55:23.000 --> 55:25.560] It wasn't about her doing anything wrong.
[55:25.560 --> 55:31.440] It was an opportunity for him to do his other duty, which is to generate money, so he issued
[55:31.440 --> 55:32.440] a citation.
[55:32.440 --> 55:33.440] Right.
[55:33.440 --> 55:38.520] But this, once again, is the perfect example of how we show they themselves do not read
[55:38.520 --> 55:40.320] the laws they're enforcing.
[55:40.320 --> 55:47.600] Had he read that, there is no way he could have reasonably been heard to say, she was
[55:47.600 --> 55:51.520] required to do this, or I can give her a ticket.
[55:51.520 --> 55:52.520] Right.
[55:52.520 --> 55:54.680] Well, let me ask you this.
[55:54.680 --> 55:59.080] When someone shows up in court who's armed with the information that you are, how does
[55:59.080 --> 56:01.280] the court react to that?
[56:01.280 --> 56:02.280] Hostile.
[56:02.280 --> 56:04.320] They don't like it.
[56:04.320 --> 56:11.960] They don't like it.
[56:11.960 --> 56:16.040] That all depends on whether or not you get the evidence and information in, and that's
[56:16.040 --> 56:21.160] part of what we're going over down at Brave New Books is how to do that, because they
[56:21.160 --> 56:28.320] will pull every dirty trick in the book to prevent you from introducing the law or any
[56:28.320 --> 56:33.360] other piece of information that will prove you didn't commit the act.
[56:33.360 --> 56:35.040] They're very good at that.
[56:35.040 --> 56:40.600] But if you do present it, the judge is left to find you innocent, is that correct?
[56:40.600 --> 56:45.400] That's correct, but the problem here is it's not the judge you have to worry about because
[56:45.400 --> 56:49.280] you don't ever want to go to a bench trial in Austin.
[56:49.280 --> 56:53.920] We got a statistics report on how the revenue flow works down there.
[56:53.920 --> 57:00.240] Trust me, you have a better chance of a bolt of lightning turning you into a battery than
[57:00.240 --> 57:04.160] you have of winning a case before a judge in Austin Municipal Court.
[57:04.160 --> 57:07.840] Do you ask for a trial by jury?
[57:07.840 --> 57:12.920] Yes, you always ask for a trial by jury, always.
[57:12.920 --> 57:17.480] I have several friends, not to deviate from what we're talking about, but I have several
[57:17.480 --> 57:23.200] friends who ask for trials by juries for every traffic ticket they've gotten here in Austin,
[57:23.200 --> 57:26.560] because I live here in Austin.
[57:26.560 --> 57:35.480] They show up to court and they try to cope them into settling before they go in real
[57:35.480 --> 57:36.480] life.
[57:36.480 --> 57:41.440] That's right, because the prosecutor knows if the individual being charged knows what
[57:41.440 --> 57:47.080] they're doing and what the law says and how to get it in, they can't win this case at
[57:47.080 --> 57:50.160] trial and they know it and they'll be losing money.
[57:50.160 --> 57:55.760] If they try to convince you they have a good case, they'll try to make a deal with you.
[57:55.760 --> 57:59.200] This deal process serves two purposes for the prosecution.
[57:59.200 --> 58:04.840] One, it gives them the ability to generate money without any additional cost.
[58:04.840 --> 58:12.880] Two, it gives the prosecutor the ability to gain insight into what you do or do not know
[58:12.880 --> 58:17.880] that he could prevent you from getting in or knows what to do to make you lose.
[58:17.880 --> 58:25.360] Both of these scenarios is meant to make it better for him, not for you.
[58:25.360 --> 58:29.000] Well, I do appreciate the information.
[58:29.000 --> 58:30.000] Yes, sir.
[58:30.000 --> 58:35.320] So, please folks, come on down to Brave New Books on Saturday from 3 to 6.
[58:35.320 --> 58:41.560] It's a $20 cover charge, but I promise you we will leave that seminar knowing more than
[58:41.560 --> 58:42.560] when we walked in.
[58:42.560 --> 58:43.560] You and me both.
[58:43.560 --> 58:44.560] Okay, I appreciate it.
[58:44.560 --> 58:45.560] I'll see you on Saturday.
[58:45.560 --> 58:49.080] All right, we'll be looking forward to it.
[58:49.080 --> 58:50.080] Thank you very much.
[58:50.080 --> 58:51.080] Okay.
[58:51.080 --> 58:52.080] Yes, sir.
[58:52.080 --> 58:53.080] Thank you.
[58:53.080 --> 58:54.080] All right.
[58:54.080 --> 59:00.400] After the break, please give us a call, 512-646-1984.
[59:00.400 --> 59:05.840] The Bible remains the most popular book in the world, yet countless readers are frustrated
[59:05.840 --> 59:08.640] because they struggle to understand it.
[59:08.640 --> 59:14.040] Some new translations try to help by simplifying the text, but in the process can compromise
[59:14.040 --> 59:17.280] the profound meaning of the scripture.

[59:59.080 --> 01:00:04.680] This news brief brought to you by the International News Network.
[01:00:04.680 --> 01:00:10.560] News Network Al Jazeera Sunday published documents showing Palestinian authority negotiators
[01:00:10.560 --> 01:00:16.520] offered to concede almost all of East Jerusalem for which Israel offered nothing in return.
[01:00:16.520 --> 01:00:21.960] The documents were part of the largest avocation of leaked documents relating to the Israeli-Palestinian
[01:00:21.960 --> 01:00:22.960] conflict.
[01:00:22.960 --> 01:00:28.480] Thousands of pages of diplomatic correspondence detail the inner workings of the peace process
[01:00:28.480 --> 01:00:36.080] from 1999 to 2010 between U.S. Israeli and Palestinian authority officials.
[01:00:36.080 --> 01:00:40.800] Eighteen people were killed one day after two car bombs struck Shiite pilgrims in the
[01:00:40.800 --> 01:00:47.080] Iraq holy city of Kabbalah as crowds massed for religious rituals for the Islamic sect's
[01:00:47.080 --> 01:00:48.720] most beloved saint.
[01:00:48.720 --> 01:00:56.160] The blasts were the latest in nearly a week of attacks that have killed at least 159 people.
[01:00:56.160 --> 01:01:01.760] Boeing has laid off 1,000 workers in Southern California one day after the company agreed
[01:01:01.760 --> 01:01:06.400] to a $19 billion deal with China to produce 200 airplanes.
[01:01:06.400 --> 01:01:09.520] The company has been consistently cutting jobs in Long Beach.
[01:01:09.520 --> 01:01:16.680] It had 20,000 employees there in 1990 and now has only 7,000.
[01:01:16.680 --> 01:01:22.360] Global food prices have begun to soar above levels reached in 2008 when hunger riots broke
[01:01:22.360 --> 01:01:24.280] out in 26 countries.
[01:01:24.280 --> 01:01:29.560] The U.N. warns prices are expected to rise at least 40 percent in the next decade, mainly
[01:01:29.560 --> 01:01:31.880] because of financial speculation.
[01:01:31.880 --> 01:01:36.840] The same banks, hedge funds, and financiers whose speculation on global money markets
[01:01:36.840 --> 01:01:41.640] caused the subprime mortgage crisis are causing food prices to rise.
[01:01:41.640 --> 01:01:46.480] By taking advantage of the deregulation of global commodity markets, speculators are
[01:01:46.480 --> 01:01:50.000] making billions from food and causing worldwide hunger.
[01:01:50.000 --> 01:01:56.000] Since commodity markets were deregulated in the mid-1990s, contracts to buy and sell food
[01:01:56.000 --> 01:02:00.520] have been turned into derivatives that can be bought and sold among traders who have
[01:02:00.520 --> 01:02:02.520] nothing to do with agriculture.
[01:02:02.520 --> 01:02:08.040] Mike Masters of Masters Capital Management warns speculation adds volatility to the market
[01:02:08.040 --> 01:02:13.840] and quote, will end badly as all Wall Street fads do.
[01:02:13.840 --> 01:02:19.280] Human Rights Watch Monday accused the U.N. and the E.U. of cowardice by claiming to tackle
[01:02:19.280 --> 01:02:25.040] human rights abuses in China and Uzbekistan through quiet dialogue and cooperation.
[01:02:25.040 --> 01:02:31.720] The HRW report on global human rights violations was issued the same day the E.U. hosted Uzbek
[01:02:31.720 --> 01:02:35.760] President Islam Karimov amid a flurry of protests.
[01:02:35.760 --> 01:02:41.960] HRW Executive Director Kenneth Roth says the fundamental error made by U.N. Secretary General
[01:02:41.960 --> 01:02:47.680] Ban Ki-moon and other leaders was to place the accent on quiet diplomacy, which was really
[01:02:47.680 --> 01:02:54.680] a euphemism for other interests at stake.
[01:03:17.680 --> 01:03:46.680] All right, folks, we are back with a little wall radio.
[01:03:46.680 --> 01:03:51.080] This is Eddie Craig, Evan Stevens.
[01:03:51.080 --> 01:03:52.360] Okay.
[01:03:52.360 --> 01:03:55.120] We have Joseph in Austin.
[01:03:55.120 --> 01:03:57.920] Joseph, what can we do for you?
[01:03:57.920 --> 01:03:58.920] Hi.
[01:03:58.920 --> 01:04:01.160] Thanks for doing all you do.
[01:04:01.160 --> 01:04:08.720] I'm a cab driver and usually when I get stopped, I pay the fine because it seems to me it would
[01:04:08.720 --> 01:04:14.480] be just cheaper and then I go to, you know, defense driving.
[01:04:14.480 --> 01:04:22.960] I take the defense driving course, but I got this point or adversary notice, I never heard
[01:04:22.960 --> 01:04:23.960] of it.
[01:04:23.960 --> 01:04:28.120] I just got this in the mail today and I was just wondering, it sounds similar to what
[01:04:28.120 --> 01:04:29.120] you were saying.
[01:04:29.120 --> 01:04:30.120] You had to pay twice.
[01:04:30.120 --> 01:04:34.920] I mean, if I pay the fine and I go to defense driving and then they're saying that I'm
[01:04:34.920 --> 01:04:50.520] under, let's see, under transportation code chapter 708, the accumulation of six points
[01:04:50.520 --> 01:05:01.280] on the driver's records within a period of 36 months will generate a $100 annual surcharge
[01:05:01.280 --> 01:05:12.960] and each point over six will add an additional $25 to the surcharge amount and that sounds
[01:05:12.960 --> 01:05:14.880] similar to what you were talking about paying twice.
[01:05:14.880 --> 01:05:24.760] I mean, they're saying right now I got four points though, not to do anything about it
[01:05:24.760 --> 01:05:33.120] right now, but let me know if I get six points and over, I'd owe $100 plus $25 more over
[01:05:33.120 --> 01:05:34.120] six.
[01:05:34.120 --> 01:05:37.320] I mean, what's that about?
[01:05:37.320 --> 01:05:45.480] Well, here's the issue regarding what you do for a living in this case.
[01:05:45.480 --> 01:05:51.520] You have to have a driver's license and registration and insurance to engage in a commercial activity
[01:05:51.520 --> 01:05:56.200] upon the roads, which you said you're a taxi cab driver, correct?
[01:05:56.200 --> 01:05:57.200] Correct.
[01:05:57.200 --> 01:05:58.200] Okay.
[01:05:58.200 --> 01:06:03.720] That is a lawfully regulatable activity.
[01:06:03.720 --> 01:06:11.060] That particular occupation or any similar occupation that uses the roads and streets
[01:06:11.060 --> 01:06:18.200] as a place of actual business falls completely under their control.
[01:06:18.200 --> 01:06:19.520] Okay.
[01:06:19.520 --> 01:06:27.280] So they can do anything they like as far as what relates to the prosecution of that business.
[01:06:27.280 --> 01:06:28.280] Okay.
[01:06:28.280 --> 01:06:35.040] As long as it's not excessive or so on and so forth and you have to remember that a license
[01:06:35.040 --> 01:06:39.560] fee and things of that nature is a tax, okay?
[01:06:39.560 --> 01:06:45.440] There's no way to escape it, but the courts have said over and over again that when something
[01:06:45.440 --> 01:06:52.600] falls within the power of the legislature to tax, they can tax it even to the point
[01:06:52.600 --> 01:06:59.640] of making the tax unreasonable and self-destructive so that the business can't even be allowed
[01:06:59.640 --> 01:07:01.920] to function.
[01:07:01.920 --> 01:07:07.620] That's allowable because we gave them the authority to do that to begin with.
[01:07:07.620 --> 01:07:11.440] So they can actually destroy a business through the method of taxation.
[01:07:11.440 --> 01:07:12.440] Okay.
[01:07:12.440 --> 01:07:18.760] The problem is, is when it goes to something that's not within their power to regulate,
[01:07:18.760 --> 01:07:23.440] which is the right to travel and the right to use our property for the purpose of that
[01:07:23.440 --> 01:07:24.440] travel.
[01:07:24.440 --> 01:07:25.440] Right.
[01:07:25.440 --> 01:07:30.440] That's why I usually go in and like I said, I pay the right click and then take a defensive
[01:07:30.440 --> 01:07:36.720] driver's course and get it over with because I don't have a lot of citations in my experience,
[01:07:36.720 --> 01:07:41.800] but I just got this in the mail today and I just, I never heard of it, but okay.
[01:07:41.800 --> 01:07:42.800] I understand now.
[01:07:42.800 --> 01:07:43.800] Okay.
[01:07:43.800 --> 01:07:44.800] All right.
[01:07:44.800 --> 01:07:45.800] Thank you.
[01:07:45.800 --> 01:07:46.800] Yes, sir.
[01:07:46.800 --> 01:07:47.800] Thank you for calling in.
[01:07:47.800 --> 01:07:48.800] All right.
[01:07:48.800 --> 01:07:49.800] All right.
[01:07:49.800 --> 01:07:50.800] Now let's get with Jason.
[01:07:50.800 --> 01:07:51.800] Jason, how are you doing?
[01:07:51.800 --> 01:07:52.800] How can we help you?
[01:07:52.800 --> 01:07:53.800] All right.
[01:07:53.800 --> 01:07:54.800] All right.
[01:07:54.800 --> 01:07:55.800] Hey Eddie and Debra.
[01:07:55.800 --> 01:07:56.800] I was called a couple of times about a year and a half ago.
[01:07:56.800 --> 01:07:57.800] I was arrested for 4602, which is in loss of variable weapon.
[01:07:57.800 --> 01:07:58.800] Right.
[01:07:58.800 --> 01:08:11.800] And it was because the officers claimed my pistol was in plain view when I just found
[01:08:11.800 --> 01:08:12.800] where it was.
[01:08:12.800 --> 01:08:13.800] Right.
[01:08:13.800 --> 01:08:27.840] But, fun reading the 46 a little bit further, 46.15, specifically 9B2, 46.15 is exemption
[01:08:27.840 --> 01:08:34.160] and 9B2 says it doesn't apply to a person who's traveling.
[01:08:34.160 --> 01:08:35.160] That's correct.
[01:08:35.160 --> 01:08:40.060] I wonder if you could tell me where I could find the definition of traveling.
[01:08:40.060 --> 01:08:45.600] Traveling is, I forget exactly what the bill is that was passed here several years ago,
[01:08:45.600 --> 01:08:52.360] but basically speaking, traveling is when you are in your automobile or some other mode
[01:08:52.360 --> 01:08:53.360] of conveyance.
[01:08:53.360 --> 01:08:58.040] It doesn't even have to be an automobile, but you're in some mode of conveyance that
[01:08:58.040 --> 01:09:04.040] takes you across one or more county lines or municipal locations.
[01:09:04.040 --> 01:09:07.840] And usually if you're crossing into different municipalities, you're crossing county lines
[01:09:07.840 --> 01:09:08.840] in the process.
[01:09:08.840 --> 01:09:09.840] Okay.
[01:09:09.840 --> 01:09:14.400] Because I was outside of the city limits in a different city from where I was coming
[01:09:14.400 --> 01:09:15.400] from.
[01:09:15.400 --> 01:09:16.400] That you were traveling.
[01:09:16.400 --> 01:09:17.400] Right.
[01:09:17.400 --> 01:09:18.400] Okay.
[01:09:18.400 --> 01:09:22.480] Well, I've heard the old wives tell you, you know, if you cross the bridge and pass
[01:09:22.480 --> 01:09:26.760] a tree over three counties and this and that, but I've never been able to find it exactly
[01:09:26.760 --> 01:09:27.760] in law.
[01:09:27.760 --> 01:09:28.760] No.
[01:09:28.760 --> 01:09:33.440] No, it's actually written into the bill that they passed for that purpose.
[01:09:33.440 --> 01:09:38.640] But yeah, that's the exclusion and I was wondering why that had never been brought up.
[01:09:38.640 --> 01:09:42.800] But if you are traveling, then that rule does not apply.
[01:09:42.800 --> 01:09:44.560] The officer knows that.
[01:09:44.560 --> 01:09:47.720] Again, same example as our first caller tonight.
[01:09:47.720 --> 01:09:53.640] Had the officer actually read it and asked the proper question, then he would have gotten
[01:09:53.640 --> 01:09:58.240] the answer that he should have gotten and there would have been no arrest and no citation.
[01:09:58.240 --> 01:10:01.560] But then they couldn't extract fees.
[01:10:01.560 --> 01:10:02.840] There you go.
[01:10:02.840 --> 01:10:07.800] That's exactly why the officers wish to remain ignorant.
[01:10:07.800 --> 01:10:14.680] They have culpable deniability, plausible deniability, sorry, plausible deniability
[01:10:14.680 --> 01:10:20.120] when they can honestly say, oh, I didn't know, well, sorry.
[01:10:20.120 --> 01:10:23.480] That plausible deniability does not work for the rest of us.
[01:10:23.480 --> 01:10:28.000] When you tell us we violated the law, it's not going to work for you.
[01:10:28.000 --> 01:10:29.000] That's right.
[01:10:29.000 --> 01:10:35.200] Well, can you give me any lead on that legislation or the law you're talking about?
[01:10:35.200 --> 01:10:36.200] Hang on just a second.
[01:10:36.200 --> 01:10:43.880] Let me look and see if I've got it in my right to bear arms research material and I will
[01:10:43.880 --> 01:10:44.880] see.
[01:10:44.880 --> 01:10:51.280] But yeah, the legislature actually passed that bill here in Texas quite a while ago.
[01:10:51.280 --> 01:10:52.280] Okay.
[01:10:52.280 --> 01:10:58.600] Was that right about the 2007, was that in the same year that they said it was okay to
[01:10:58.600 --> 01:11:02.240] carry a loaded concealed pistol in your automobile?
[01:11:02.240 --> 01:11:03.240] Yes.
[01:11:03.240 --> 01:11:04.240] Okay.
[01:11:04.240 --> 01:11:11.120] Because that's such a, that was so open for interpretation without that legally defined
[01:11:11.120 --> 01:11:13.520] definition of traveling, you know?
[01:11:13.520 --> 01:11:16.000] Well, it's not open to interpretation.
[01:11:16.000 --> 01:11:21.920] They have to give the same legal definition of travel as you would have to.
[01:11:21.920 --> 01:11:26.200] Remember, it's up to them to prove you violated the statute.
[01:11:26.200 --> 01:11:27.520] Right.
[01:11:27.520 --> 01:11:33.920] When they don't do that, you have every right to tell the judge, I move the court for a
[01:11:33.920 --> 01:11:36.600] directed verdict in favor of the defendant.
[01:11:36.600 --> 01:11:43.680] The prosecution has not proven its case on the record.
[01:11:43.680 --> 01:11:49.320] The prosecution never broached the subject of my right to travel and have the gun in
[01:11:49.320 --> 01:11:52.960] my car plain view or otherwise.
[01:11:52.960 --> 01:11:54.000] Right.
[01:11:54.000 --> 01:11:58.720] They did not prove I was not traveling at the time.
[01:11:58.720 --> 01:12:00.920] They have failed to prove their case.
[01:12:00.920 --> 01:12:02.880] I demand a directed verdict.
[01:12:02.880 --> 01:12:07.440] I imagine the gavel would be slamming up to the first order too.
[01:12:07.440 --> 01:12:10.480] Get it into record anyway.
[01:12:10.480 --> 01:12:11.480] Oh, sure.
[01:12:11.480 --> 01:12:12.480] Okay.
[01:12:12.480 --> 01:12:18.200] Real quick, have you gotten any traction with getting in front of the legislature?
[01:12:18.200 --> 01:12:22.960] At the moment, I have yet to be able to complete the stuff I want to present to the legislature.
[01:12:22.960 --> 01:12:29.040] I've been so busy with cases and helping people that I haven't even got to finish what I want
[01:12:29.040 --> 01:12:30.280] to get in front of the legislature.
[01:12:30.280 --> 01:12:33.200] But I've got to get it done because they're in session.
[01:12:33.200 --> 01:12:34.200] Well, no doubt.
[01:12:34.200 --> 01:12:35.200] No doubt.
[01:12:35.200 --> 01:12:36.200] Okay.
[01:12:36.200 --> 01:12:38.440] Well, I won't bog you down with looking for that bill.
[01:12:38.440 --> 01:12:40.440] I'll try to check it out myself.
[01:12:40.440 --> 01:12:41.440] Okay.
[01:12:41.440 --> 01:12:42.440] Yeah.
[01:12:42.440 --> 01:12:43.440] I know it's there.
[01:12:43.440 --> 01:12:46.040] I just saw the act the other day, in fact, but I can't for the life of me remember what
[01:12:46.040 --> 01:12:47.040] the number of it is.
[01:12:47.040 --> 01:12:48.040] Okay.
[01:12:48.040 --> 01:12:49.040] All right.
[01:12:49.040 --> 01:12:50.920] Well, if I find it, I'll call back in.
[01:12:50.920 --> 01:12:51.920] All right.
[01:12:51.920 --> 01:12:52.920] Thanks, Jason.
[01:12:52.920 --> 01:12:53.920] Thank you.
[01:12:53.920 --> 01:12:55.160] All right, folks.
[01:12:55.160 --> 01:12:58.000] We have now an empty caller board.
[01:12:58.000 --> 01:12:59.000] Please give us a call.
[01:12:59.000 --> 01:13:03.040] 512-646-1984.
[01:13:03.040 --> 01:13:06.960] While we're waiting for callers to give us a holler, let's take a look at something I
[01:13:06.960 --> 01:13:13.240] was asking folks to go take a look at, which is the posting on the elliscountyobserver.com
[01:13:13.240 --> 01:13:15.960] website.
[01:13:15.960 --> 01:13:21.720] Here a week or two ago, Joey, which is the publisher of the site, sent me an email asking
[01:13:21.720 --> 01:13:28.080] me about information regarding the statutes on the unauthorized practice of law.
[01:13:28.080 --> 01:13:37.360] I'm immediately referring to penal code 38.123 and 38.122.
[01:13:37.360 --> 01:13:44.640] Those are the only two specific statutes that make an offense for the unauthorized practice
[01:13:44.640 --> 01:13:46.080] of law.
[01:13:46.080 --> 01:13:56.280] Now, in order to be lawfully charged with this, 38.123 makes it very, very clear that
[01:13:56.280 --> 01:14:02.320] you can only be guilty of this if you are giving legal advice for the purpose of gaining
[01:14:02.320 --> 01:14:14.320] a financial benefit for yourself for any receipt of payment regarding a personal injury suit
[01:14:14.320 --> 01:14:18.360] for damages or acting as a broker.
[01:14:18.360 --> 01:14:29.200] In other words, you have the person injured pay you money for you to go out with the exclusive
[01:14:29.200 --> 01:14:36.660] right from that injured individual under your contract to have the exclusive right to go
[01:14:36.660 --> 01:14:43.440] out and seek and hire legal counsel on behalf of that injured person.
[01:14:43.440 --> 01:14:46.360] That act is forbidden.
[01:14:46.360 --> 01:14:54.840] The other act that is forbidden by one of the statutes but does not define an offense
[01:14:54.840 --> 01:15:02.880] is that you are not allowed to act in a legal capacity for the transfer of title to real
[01:15:02.880 --> 01:15:15.400] property or for the revocation or reallocation or something of that effect regarding personal
[01:15:15.400 --> 01:15:21.480] property or a lien.
[01:15:21.480 --> 01:15:22.480] Bible tax is law.
[01:15:22.480 --> 01:15:27.240] That's the only condition for which one can be charged with the unauthorized practice
[01:15:27.240 --> 01:15:29.400] of law.
[01:15:29.400 --> 01:15:33.760] On this blog site, we've got all these people in there that are doing nothing but giving
[01:15:33.760 --> 01:15:38.600] me personal attacks and all this for what I stated, even though not a single one of
[01:15:38.600 --> 01:15:45.740] them has produced a single piece of law or a single court case that refutes my position
[01:15:45.740 --> 01:15:51.240] and statement as to what the law said it applies to.
[01:15:51.240 --> 01:15:56.240] When they couldn't win the argument in law, they went to main calling and all this.
[01:15:56.240 --> 01:16:00.280] What I would like to ask is for all you folks that are listening, if you haven't yet, go
[01:16:00.280 --> 01:16:09.480] to www.elliscountyobserver.com and in the search field in the top right where you get
[01:16:09.480 --> 01:16:13.680] there put in unauthorized practice of law.
[01:16:13.680 --> 01:16:17.560] That will take you to the comments for that particular blog.
[01:16:17.560 --> 01:16:22.880] Click on the top right hand corner right beneath the title where it says a number and then
[01:16:22.880 --> 01:16:28.360] comments and that will take you to the section where you can actually post your own comment.
[01:16:28.360 --> 01:16:29.840] Please read it through.
[01:16:29.840 --> 01:16:31.840] If you disagree with me, fine.
[01:16:31.840 --> 01:16:32.840] Make a post.
[01:16:32.840 --> 01:16:38.240] If you agree with me, make a post, but let's get some good argument out there on this because
[01:16:38.240 --> 01:16:41.800] they resorted to main calling to solve the problem on their side.
[01:16:41.800 --> 01:16:42.800] All right.
[01:16:42.800 --> 01:16:44.640] We have Zach and Sheldon on the line.
[01:16:44.640 --> 01:16:48.720] Sheldon is just listening in, but Zach, if you'll hang on, I will pick you up on the
[01:16:48.720 --> 01:16:51.120] other side of the break and there's Robert also.
[01:16:51.120 --> 01:16:52.120] 512-646-1984.
[01:16:52.120 --> 01:16:56.000] This is Rule of Law Radio.
[01:16:56.000 --> 01:17:00.440] We will be right back.
[01:17:00.440 --> 01:17:05.440] It is so enlightening to listen to 90.1 FM, but finding things on the internet isn't so
[01:17:05.440 --> 01:17:09.160] easy and neither is finding like-minded people to share it with.
[01:17:09.160 --> 01:17:12.040] Oh, well, I guess you haven't heard of Brave New Books then.
[01:17:12.040 --> 01:17:13.040] Brave New Books?
[01:17:13.040 --> 01:17:14.040] Yes.
[01:17:14.040 --> 01:17:18.440] Brave New Books has all the books and DVDs you're looking for by authors like Alex Jones,
[01:17:18.440 --> 01:17:20.400] Ron Paul and G. Edward Griffin.
[01:17:20.400 --> 01:17:23.800] They even stock inner food, Berkey products and Calvin Soaps.
[01:17:23.800 --> 01:17:26.720] There's no way a place like that exists.
[01:17:26.720 --> 01:17:28.200] Go check it out for yourself.
[01:17:28.200 --> 01:17:32.560] It's downtown at 1904 Guadalupe Street just south of UT.
[01:17:32.560 --> 01:17:35.960] By UT, there's never anywhere to park down there.
[01:17:35.960 --> 01:17:41.160] Actually, they now offer a free hour of parking for paying customers at the 500 MLK Parking
[01:17:41.160 --> 01:17:44.160] Facility just behind the bookstore.
[01:17:44.160 --> 01:17:47.160] It does exist, but when are they open?
[01:17:47.160 --> 01:17:52.520] Monday through Saturday, 11 AM to 9 PM and 1 to 6 PM on Sundays, so give them a call
[01:17:52.520 --> 01:18:02.480] at 512-480-2503 or check out their events page at bravenewbookstore.com.
[01:18:02.480 --> 01:18:07.520] Capital Coin and Bullion is your local source for rare coins, precious metals and coin supplies
[01:18:07.520 --> 01:18:09.520] in the Austin metro area.

[01:18:15.600 --> 01:18:16.600] and metals purchases.

[01:18:47.720 --> 01:18:48.720] with any questions.
[01:18:48.720 --> 01:18:53.400] Ask for Chad and say you heard about us on Rule of Law Radio or 90.1 FM.
[01:18:53.400 --> 01:18:56.400] That's Capital Coin and Bullion, 512-646-6440.
[01:18:56.400 --> 01:18:59.400] Ain't gonna blame me.
[01:18:59.400 --> 01:19:10.400] Don't bore me.
[01:19:10.400 --> 01:19:25.760] Well, ain't gonna fool me with that same old trick again.
[01:19:25.760 --> 01:19:32.760] I was blindsided, but now I can see your plan.
[01:19:32.760 --> 01:19:50.760] You put the fear in my pocket, took the money from my hand.
[01:19:50.760 --> 01:19:51.760] Ain't gonna fool me with that same old trick again.
[01:19:51.760 --> 01:19:52.760] Hang on.
[01:19:52.760 --> 01:19:53.760] All right, folks.
[01:19:53.760 --> 01:19:54.760] We are back.
[01:19:54.760 --> 01:19:55.760] Okay.
[01:19:55.760 --> 01:19:58.760] Turns out Sheldon has been holding all this time and he does have a question, so we'll
[01:19:58.760 --> 01:19:59.760] go ahead and take Sheldon.
[01:19:59.760 --> 01:20:00.760] Sheldon, what do we do for you?
[01:20:00.760 --> 01:20:01.760] Yes.
[01:20:01.760 --> 01:20:10.760] What's the name of the folder that you said when you go in and ask people to have, you
[01:20:10.760 --> 01:20:17.760] said to complain that the citation is another thing you said to be in that folder and what
[01:20:17.760 --> 01:20:18.760] was the name of the folder?
[01:20:18.760 --> 01:20:19.760] Well, it'll be the court record.
[01:20:19.760 --> 01:20:24.760] The court record that's maintained by the clerk of the court in which the case is pending
[01:20:24.760 --> 01:20:29.760] should have a record that has every document that's been filed in the case.
[01:20:29.760 --> 01:20:30.760] Yeah.
[01:20:30.760 --> 01:20:31.760] Court record.
[01:20:31.760 --> 01:20:32.760] Yeah.
[01:20:32.760 --> 01:20:38.760] Just tell him you want to see the court record associated to whatever the citation number
[01:20:38.760 --> 01:20:42.760] is, the incident report is, or the cause number if you have one.
[01:20:42.760 --> 01:20:43.760] Okay.
[01:20:43.760 --> 01:20:49.760] Well, like I said, I appreciate it.
[01:20:49.760 --> 01:20:53.760] Another question I had, how do you feel about laid off not opening these books?
[01:20:53.760 --> 01:20:54.760] Now, wait.
[01:20:54.760 --> 01:20:55.760] Say that again.
[01:20:55.760 --> 01:20:56.760] Like the checks and all that.
[01:20:56.760 --> 01:20:57.760] How do you feel about them not opening those books?
[01:20:57.760 --> 01:20:58.760] When we were talking about people at work, we were talking about since they don't want
[01:20:58.760 --> 01:20:59.760] to open the books, why do we still have to pay checks?
[01:20:59.760 --> 01:21:10.760] I know it's a different subject, but I just want to know how do you feel about it?
[01:21:10.760 --> 01:21:17.760] Well, there's a real big issue with giving the IRS your books.
[01:21:17.760 --> 01:21:21.760] Now, if you're a corporation, you don't have a choice.
[01:21:21.760 --> 01:21:27.760] But privately speaking, the Fifth Amendment says you're not required to give anyone information
[01:21:27.760 --> 01:21:30.760] that can be used against you in a court of law.
[01:21:30.760 --> 01:21:36.760] Now, they try to sidestep that by saying, well, we haven't filed any criminal charges yet.
[01:21:36.760 --> 01:21:40.760] Yeah, but you're asking me to produce information that would allow you to do it if you could
[01:21:40.760 --> 01:21:44.760] contrive some reason to do it with the information.
[01:21:44.760 --> 01:21:49.760] And they will.
[01:21:49.760 --> 01:21:56.760] So this is the IRS trying to make an argument that constitutionally speaking does not hold
[01:21:56.760 --> 01:21:58.760] water.
[01:21:58.760 --> 01:22:07.760] The Constitution doesn't limit it to what will specifically be used upon its release.
[01:22:07.760 --> 01:22:11.760] It says that can be used against you.
[01:22:11.760 --> 01:22:21.760] And even though it's civil today, it can be used against you criminally later.
[01:22:21.760 --> 01:22:22.760] Okay?
[01:22:22.760 --> 01:22:29.760] So given that, my position is you want my books, you get a court order, and that court
[01:22:29.760 --> 01:22:37.760] order better not order me to violate my rights in the process.
[01:22:37.760 --> 01:22:38.760] That's right.
[01:22:38.760 --> 01:22:41.760] Fifth or Fourth Amendment?
[01:22:41.760 --> 01:22:43.760] Yeah, Fourth, Fifth, all of that.
[01:22:43.760 --> 01:22:48.760] Unlawful search and seizure, Sixth Amendment, so on and so forth.
[01:22:48.760 --> 01:22:50.760] Well, I appreciate the information.
[01:22:50.760 --> 01:22:53.760] And like I said, I want to continue because the unlawful search and seizure is working.
[01:22:53.760 --> 01:22:54.760] So I want to continue to listen.
[01:22:54.760 --> 01:22:56.760] Thank you for the information tonight.
[01:22:56.760 --> 01:22:57.760] You're very welcome, Sheldon.
[01:22:57.760 --> 01:22:59.760] Thank you for calling in.
[01:22:59.760 --> 01:23:01.760] Okay.
[01:23:01.760 --> 01:23:03.760] Let's go to Zach in Texas.
[01:23:03.760 --> 01:23:06.760] Robert, LeAnn, we see you out there.
[01:23:06.760 --> 01:23:07.760] Just hang on.
[01:23:07.760 --> 01:23:08.760] We'll get to you here momentarily.
[01:23:08.760 --> 01:23:10.760] Zach, how can we help you?
[01:23:10.760 --> 01:23:11.760] Hey, what's going on?
[01:23:11.760 --> 01:23:15.760] I was just listening to a video, and I think it was the taxi driver, and you guys started
[01:23:15.760 --> 01:23:17.760] talking a little bit about traveling.
[01:23:17.760 --> 01:23:18.760] Yes.
[01:23:18.760 --> 01:23:21.760] I have just a few questions.
[01:23:21.760 --> 01:23:26.760] So my understanding is that commercially, you know, if you're not operating under commercial
[01:23:26.760 --> 01:23:32.760] business or whatever, then you have a right to travel now.
[01:23:32.760 --> 01:23:38.760] Are we not all defined as a bank, you know, and going to our next transactions pretty
[01:23:38.760 --> 01:23:39.760] much at all times?
[01:23:39.760 --> 01:23:42.760] So are we not always really acting out?
[01:23:42.760 --> 01:23:45.760] Are you incorporated?
[01:23:45.760 --> 01:23:46.760] I'm not.
[01:23:46.760 --> 01:23:50.760] But am I in control of a corporation?
[01:23:50.760 --> 01:23:56.760] No, not unless you're incorporated or you've been appointed as the CEO or some other officer
[01:23:56.760 --> 01:24:00.760] of a corporation, in which case you must be specifically named in the corporate papers
[01:24:00.760 --> 01:24:02.760] for that purpose.
[01:24:02.760 --> 01:24:04.760] Okay.
[01:24:04.760 --> 01:24:05.760] Let's see.
[01:24:05.760 --> 01:24:10.760] I'm trying to think of some other.
[01:24:10.760 --> 01:24:13.760] I'm drawing a blank right now just because I'm on the radio.
[01:24:13.760 --> 01:24:14.760] All right.
[01:24:14.760 --> 01:24:15.760] Let's think for just a second.
[01:24:15.760 --> 01:24:16.760] Oh, okay.
[01:24:16.760 --> 01:24:22.760] So also another thing is registering your car and signing up for the driver's license.
[01:24:22.760 --> 01:24:26.760] At that point, aren't you just signing up to follow all the rules?
[01:24:26.760 --> 01:24:31.760] And if so, the statutes that you're talking about, are that in there that you can travel?
[01:24:31.760 --> 01:24:34.760] I think that's what you're talking about, that it's actually in the statute so you could
[01:24:34.760 --> 01:24:37.760] follow those rules once you sign up for the driver's license.
[01:24:37.760 --> 01:24:38.760] Right.
[01:24:38.760 --> 01:24:44.760] Think of the driver's license and things when it regards the ability to be impacted by the
[01:24:44.760 --> 01:24:46.760] statutes in this way.
[01:24:46.760 --> 01:24:51.760] The state would like you to believe that to be a pest control individual, you have to be
[01:24:51.760 --> 01:24:52.760] licensed by the state.
[01:24:52.760 --> 01:24:53.760] But guess what?
[01:24:53.760 --> 01:24:54.760] You don't.
[01:24:54.760 --> 01:24:58.760] But let's presume for a moment that you do.
[01:24:58.760 --> 01:25:04.760] Now, as someone that is in the pest control business, when you go to someone's house for the
[01:25:04.760 --> 01:25:13.760] purpose of eradicating their pests, are you conducting business under the license you procured?
[01:25:13.760 --> 01:25:14.760] No.
[01:25:14.760 --> 01:25:16.760] No?
[01:25:16.760 --> 01:25:20.760] If I hire you to come to my house as a pest controller to spray my house for roaches, you're
[01:25:20.760 --> 01:25:22.760] not acting under the license?
[01:25:22.760 --> 01:25:24.760] Which license are we talking about?
[01:25:24.760 --> 01:25:26.760] The pest control license.
[01:25:26.760 --> 01:25:27.760] From the state?
[01:25:27.760 --> 01:25:28.760] Yes.
[01:25:28.760 --> 01:25:29.760] Yeah, okay.
[01:25:29.760 --> 01:25:30.760] Yes.
[01:25:30.760 --> 01:25:31.760] Okay.
[01:25:31.760 --> 01:25:32.760] You are.
[01:25:32.760 --> 01:25:38.760] However, if you buy a can of Raid to spray roaches in your own house, does it matter
[01:25:38.760 --> 01:25:42.760] that you have a pest control license?
[01:25:42.760 --> 01:25:43.760] No.
[01:25:43.760 --> 01:25:49.760] No, because you're not acting under that pest control license.
[01:25:49.760 --> 01:25:54.760] So the issue becomes, when it comes to the driver's license, is at the time they issue the
[01:25:54.760 --> 01:26:00.760] citation or the alleged offense was perpetrated that required you to abide by those rules,
[01:26:00.760 --> 01:26:06.760] were you using the license that bound you to them?
[01:26:06.760 --> 01:26:14.760] If you weren't, and that's to whom the rules apply, then there is no case against you,
[01:26:14.760 --> 01:26:16.760] not lawfully speaking.
[01:26:16.760 --> 01:26:20.760] Okay, so to travel you don't even need the license, is that what you're saying?
[01:26:20.760 --> 01:26:22.760] That's exactly what I'm saying.
[01:26:22.760 --> 01:26:23.760] Okay.
[01:26:23.760 --> 01:26:26.760] One is a right, the other is a privilege.
[01:26:26.760 --> 01:26:32.760] Okay, and as far as state plates, registering your vehicle pretty much granting title to
[01:26:32.760 --> 01:26:36.760] them, and then, I mean, you're not really driving your property around anymore.
[01:26:36.760 --> 01:26:38.760] That part is true.
[01:26:38.760 --> 01:26:42.760] When you turn over that MCO or MSO to the state and get a certificate of title, the
[01:26:42.760 --> 01:26:47.760] law is very clear about what a certificate of title is.
[01:26:47.760 --> 01:26:52.760] In that case, a certificate of title is a negotiable instrument.
[01:26:52.760 --> 01:27:01.760] And all it does, according to Texas law, is to register who holds liens against the property.
[01:27:01.760 --> 01:27:09.760] But it specifies in the title that the person that is named in the title is the legal owner,
[01:27:09.760 --> 01:27:11.760] not the lawful owner.
[01:27:11.760 --> 01:27:13.760] And there is a difference.
[01:27:13.760 --> 01:27:18.760] The owner is different than the legal owner.
[01:27:18.760 --> 01:27:22.760] And if you don't believe that, look at the two definitions in Black's law.
[01:27:22.760 --> 01:27:29.760] The legal owner is one who has all the appearance of right and ownership without any of the
[01:27:29.760 --> 01:27:36.760] power and benefit of ownership.
[01:27:36.760 --> 01:27:41.760] Now, that's a problem.
[01:27:41.760 --> 01:27:51.760] So the state cannot lawfully nor reasonably demand that you give them legal title to a
[01:27:51.760 --> 01:27:59.760] piece of property that you paid for and they give you no compensation for.
[01:27:59.760 --> 01:28:05.760] And then you must seek their permission to use what you have believed all along and what
[01:28:05.760 --> 01:28:13.760] they say, well, yeah, it really is yours, but we can control how you use it.
[01:28:13.760 --> 01:28:14.760] No, sorry, folks.
[01:28:14.760 --> 01:28:18.760] That's not the power and authority given to a public servant.
[01:28:18.760 --> 01:28:21.760] So it wasn't given to them when we gave it to them?
[01:28:21.760 --> 01:28:22.760] I mean, we are...
[01:28:22.760 --> 01:28:24.760] We didn't give it to them.
[01:28:24.760 --> 01:28:26.760] That's the whole point.
[01:28:26.760 --> 01:28:32.760] The transportation code was given to affect those over which we did give them the authority,
[01:28:32.760 --> 01:28:39.760] which were those that were using our roads for the purpose of a business endeavor.
[01:28:39.760 --> 01:28:41.760] That we gave them the power to regulate.
[01:28:41.760 --> 01:28:42.760] Why?
[01:28:42.760 --> 01:28:47.760] Because the roads belong to us for our personal private use, not for the use of companies
[01:28:47.760 --> 01:28:51.760] or individuals to make a profit.
[01:28:51.760 --> 01:28:58.760] So one is an extraordinary use, the generation of profit on the road, and the other is the
[01:28:58.760 --> 01:29:05.760] intended use, which is travel and private business and pleasure.
[01:29:05.760 --> 01:29:07.760] One is a right.
[01:29:07.760 --> 01:29:09.760] One is a privilege.
[01:29:09.760 --> 01:29:13.760] The privilege can be regulated.
[01:29:13.760 --> 01:29:15.760] Gotcha.
[01:29:15.760 --> 01:29:17.760] All right.
[01:29:17.760 --> 01:29:18.760] Thank you.
[01:29:18.760 --> 01:29:19.760] You're welcome.
[01:29:19.760 --> 01:29:20.760] Thanks for calling in.
[01:29:20.760 --> 01:29:21.760] See you later.
[01:29:21.760 --> 01:29:22.760] All right.
[01:29:22.760 --> 01:29:23.760] Bye-bye.
[01:29:23.760 --> 01:29:24.760] Okay.
[01:29:24.760 --> 01:29:26.760] Now, let's go to Robert in Texas.
[01:29:26.760 --> 01:29:28.760] Robert, how can we help you?
[01:29:28.760 --> 01:29:29.760] How are you doing, Eddie?
[01:29:29.760 --> 01:29:31.760] I just had a real quick question.
[01:29:31.760 --> 01:29:32.760] I just wanted to know...
[01:29:32.760 --> 01:29:33.760] Oh, Robert.
[01:29:33.760 --> 01:29:34.760] There's the music.
[01:29:34.760 --> 01:29:35.760] We're about to go to break.
[01:29:35.760 --> 01:29:38.760] If you'll hang on to your questions to the other side, I'll get right back with you.
[01:29:38.760 --> 01:29:39.760] Okay.
[01:29:39.760 --> 01:29:40.760] I will.
[01:29:40.760 --> 01:29:41.760] All right.
[01:29:41.760 --> 01:29:42.760] Hang on.
[01:29:42.760 --> 01:29:43.760] All right, folks.
[01:29:43.760 --> 01:29:49.760] Hello, Eddie Craig, Deborah Stevens, 512-646-1984 is the call-in number.
[01:29:49.760 --> 01:29:50.760] Give us a call.
[01:29:50.760 --> 01:29:52.760] We're about to go to break.
[01:29:52.760 --> 01:30:00.760] But we will be right back.
[01:30:00.760 --> 01:30:03.760] Christ fed them multitudes with only one loaf of bread.
[01:30:03.760 --> 01:30:06.760] Poor people, there's something for you.
[01:30:06.760 --> 01:30:08.760] Austin's own Caribbean, One Love Kitchen.
[01:30:08.760 --> 01:30:10.760] On the banks of Colorado River.
[01:30:10.760 --> 01:30:13.760] At 3109 East 1st Street is where you'll find One Love Kitchen.
[01:30:13.760 --> 01:30:16.760] Jerk chicken, vegetarian restaurant.
[01:30:16.760 --> 01:30:19.760] Monday through Wednesday, lunch and dinner, $5.
[01:30:19.760 --> 01:30:22.760] Friday and Saturday, we got late night with Emperor Sound Crew.
[01:30:22.760 --> 01:30:24.760] Still a $5 place.
[01:30:24.760 --> 01:30:26.760] Jerk chicken and vegetarian place to beat.
[01:30:26.760 --> 01:30:29.760] One Love Kitchen, Austin, Texas.
[01:30:29.760 --> 01:30:34.760] Back in the 90s, when cities started putting up red light cameras for traffic enforcement,
[01:30:34.760 --> 01:30:37.760] critics warned they could be turned into tracking systems.
[01:30:37.760 --> 01:30:39.760] Now it turns out they were right.
[01:30:39.760 --> 01:30:42.760] I'm Dr. Catherine Albrecht, and I'll be back in a moment with the details.
[01:30:42.760 --> 01:30:46.760] Your search engine is watching you, recording all your searches
[01:30:46.760 --> 01:30:50.760] and creating a massive database of your personal information.
[01:30:50.760 --> 01:30:51.760] That's creepy.
[01:30:51.760 --> 01:30:53.760] But it doesn't have to be that way.
[01:30:53.760 --> 01:30:56.760] Startpage.com is the world's most private search engine.
[01:30:56.760 --> 01:30:59.760] Startpage doesn't store your IP address, make a record of your searches,
[01:30:59.760 --> 01:31:02.760] or use tracking cookies, and they're third-party certified.
[01:31:02.760 --> 01:31:07.760] If you don't like Big Brother spying on you, start over with Startpage.
[01:31:07.760 --> 01:31:10.760] Great search results and total privacy.
[01:31:10.760 --> 01:31:13.760] Startpage.com, the world's most private search engine.
[01:31:13.760 --> 01:31:18.760] Privacy advocates once warned that red light cameras would quickly go from traffic enforcement
[01:31:18.760 --> 01:31:20.760] to Big Brother surveillance.
[01:31:20.760 --> 01:31:24.760] But lawmakers ridiculed those concerns and promised they'd never trap people with the systems.
[01:31:24.760 --> 01:31:25.760] Well, guess what?
[01:31:25.760 --> 01:31:27.760] They've gone back on their word.
[01:31:27.760 --> 01:31:32.760] In Inglewood, Ohio, police now use powerful red light cameras to zoom in on individuals,
[01:31:32.760 --> 01:31:36.760] and they use a joystick to follow them through a chain of networked cameras.
[01:31:36.760 --> 01:31:41.760] They say they're tracking suspected criminals, but how long before they turn their gaze to ex-spouses,
[01:31:41.760 --> 01:31:45.760] pretty girls, political opponents, or even you?
[01:31:45.760 --> 01:31:48.760] When government goes back on its word time and again, why, oh why,
[01:31:48.760 --> 01:31:52.760] do we keep trusting them with powerful new technologies?
[01:31:52.760 --> 01:31:53.760] I'm Dr. Katherine Albrecht.
[01:31:53.760 --> 01:32:06.760] More news and information at KatherineAlbrecht.com.
[01:32:24.760 --> 01:32:29.760] All right, folks, we are back.
[01:32:29.760 --> 01:32:32.760] Now, let's finish up with Robert.
[01:32:32.760 --> 01:32:34.760] Okay, Robert, go ahead and ask your question, please.
[01:32:34.760 --> 01:32:35.760] How you doing, Eddie?
[01:32:35.760 --> 01:32:41.760] I've got a real quick question, and that is about the constables writing traffic tickets.
[01:32:41.760 --> 01:32:46.760] Are they within their rights and within the law writing traffic tickets?
[01:32:46.760 --> 01:32:49.760] Absolutely not.
[01:32:49.760 --> 01:32:56.760] I've seen a checkpoint on 183 and Vernon of three constables holding up people
[01:32:56.760 --> 01:33:00.760] looking for registrations and insurance.
[01:33:00.760 --> 01:33:02.760] In Texas?
[01:33:02.760 --> 01:33:05.760] I'm in Austin, Texas, 183 and Vernon Road.
[01:33:05.760 --> 01:33:09.760] Well, here's the problem for these constables.
[01:33:09.760 --> 01:33:14.760] First thing is the administrative code specifically says the constable's authority to enforce traffic
[01:33:14.760 --> 01:33:20.760] is limited to acting as an officer in a way station.
[01:33:20.760 --> 01:33:23.760] Doesn't give them authority to act anywhere else.
[01:33:23.760 --> 01:33:27.760] They're throwing people over and giving tickets here in Austin, Texas.
[01:33:27.760 --> 01:33:31.760] Yeah, that's because nobody knows that they should be suing these officers behind
[01:33:31.760 --> 01:33:34.760] for acting without lawful authority.
[01:33:34.760 --> 01:33:35.760] Okay.
[01:33:35.760 --> 01:33:40.760] But the other problem that the constable has is that it's very clear in Texas law
[01:33:40.760 --> 01:33:45.760] that the county commissioners can only appoint five individuals
[01:33:45.760 --> 01:33:48.760] for the purpose of enforcing the traffic laws,
[01:33:48.760 --> 01:33:52.760] and in emergencies can increase that number of people to seven,
[01:33:52.760 --> 01:33:58.760] and that those people are to report directly to the sheriff's office.
[01:33:58.760 --> 01:34:00.760] The constables do not.
[01:34:00.760 --> 01:34:05.760] The constables are independent of the sheriff's office.
[01:34:05.760 --> 01:34:06.760] Wow.
[01:34:06.760 --> 01:34:11.760] Therefore, their authority to enforce traffic is limited to what it's shown
[01:34:11.760 --> 01:34:13.760] under the administrative code.
[01:34:13.760 --> 01:34:20.760] Now, while it's true that the transportation code says any peace officer may arrest
[01:34:20.760 --> 01:34:26.760] for an offense under this subtitle, meaning subtitle C of the transportation code,
[01:34:26.760 --> 01:34:30.760] there seems to be a historical issue with that language change.
[01:34:30.760 --> 01:34:37.760] That is that peace officer is not defined in subtitle C.
[01:34:37.760 --> 01:34:44.760] In fact, the definition of the term there is police officer,
[01:34:44.760 --> 01:34:49.760] and it specifically says in that definition that the police officer is one that is
[01:34:49.760 --> 01:34:57.760] authorized by law to conduct traffic stops and so on and so forth.
[01:34:57.760 --> 01:35:02.760] Well, how do they get authorized by law if not through the means of those under
[01:35:02.760 --> 01:35:08.760] whom that authority rests, which is the Department of Public Safety?
[01:35:08.760 --> 01:35:12.760] That's clearly defined in every chapter of the transportation code that the
[01:35:12.760 --> 01:35:16.760] Department of Public Safety is the one that makes the rules and regulations
[01:35:16.760 --> 01:35:21.760] associated with this particular chapter.
[01:35:21.760 --> 01:35:25.760] In other chapters, it is the Department of Transportation if the chapter deals
[01:35:25.760 --> 01:35:30.760] with maintenance or signage or something of that nature.
[01:35:30.760 --> 01:35:35.760] So these are the two state agencies that delegate and grant the authority and
[01:35:35.760 --> 01:35:41.760] make the regulations associated with traffic enforcement.
[01:35:41.760 --> 01:35:45.760] So how does the power get from the DPS into the hands of the locals if not by
[01:35:45.760 --> 01:35:49.760] delegation?
[01:35:49.760 --> 01:35:52.760] Why are they on the street writing tickets, Eddie?
[01:35:52.760 --> 01:35:55.760] Well, check the bank account of the city.
[01:35:55.760 --> 01:35:56.760] You'll see why.
[01:35:56.760 --> 01:35:59.760] Oh, okay.
[01:35:59.760 --> 01:36:03.760] The problem is that these are county officers, so they're doing the same thing
[01:36:03.760 --> 01:36:08.760] at the county level that the city of Austin does at the city level, which is
[01:36:08.760 --> 01:36:12.760] just break the law and mug people for money at gunpoint.
[01:36:12.760 --> 01:36:14.760] They're within the city, though.
[01:36:14.760 --> 01:36:15.760] They're in the city doing this.
[01:36:15.760 --> 01:36:19.760] They're not just out in the county, but they're within the city.
[01:36:19.760 --> 01:36:21.760] They're within the city limits?
[01:36:21.760 --> 01:36:22.760] That's what they're sending them to.
[01:36:22.760 --> 01:36:24.760] They had a checkpoint.
[01:36:24.760 --> 01:36:26.760] It was a three-car checkpoint.
[01:36:26.760 --> 01:36:27.760] Yeah, but here's my question.
[01:36:27.760 --> 01:36:32.760] What court are the constables sending the people to that they issue the tickets
[01:36:32.760 --> 01:36:33.760] to?
[01:36:33.760 --> 01:36:34.760] I don't know.
[01:36:34.760 --> 01:36:38.760] When I saw the checkpoint, I turned around, so they didn't get me.
[01:36:38.760 --> 01:36:39.760] Yeah.
[01:36:39.760 --> 01:36:42.760] So I don't know what they did.
[01:36:42.760 --> 01:36:44.760] I thought it was quite odd.
[01:36:44.760 --> 01:36:45.760] I drove up one.
[01:36:45.760 --> 01:36:46.760] I thought it was quite odd.
[01:36:46.760 --> 01:36:48.760] I'd never seen this before.
[01:36:48.760 --> 01:36:49.760] Let's solve that problem.
[01:36:49.760 --> 01:36:54.760] If anyone out there listening or anyone out there knows somebody that isn't
[01:36:54.760 --> 01:37:00.760] listening that got a citation at this checkpoint or one similar to it where
[01:37:00.760 --> 01:37:06.760] it was a county official rather than a municipal official acting within the
[01:37:06.760 --> 01:37:10.760] city limits, please call into the show or send me an email with their
[01:37:10.760 --> 01:37:16.760] information and what the ticket directed them to as far as the court is
[01:37:16.760 --> 01:37:17.760] concerned.
[01:37:17.760 --> 01:37:18.760] All right.
[01:37:18.760 --> 01:37:19.760] Thank you, Eddie.
[01:37:19.760 --> 01:37:20.760] I appreciate it.
[01:37:20.760 --> 01:37:21.760] Yes, sir.
[01:37:21.760 --> 01:37:23.760] Thank you for calling in and letting us know, Robert.
[01:37:23.760 --> 01:37:24.760] I will.
[01:37:24.760 --> 01:37:25.760] Bye-bye.
[01:37:25.760 --> 01:37:26.760] All right.
[01:37:26.760 --> 01:37:27.760] Thanks.
[01:37:27.760 --> 01:37:28.760] All right.
[01:37:28.760 --> 01:37:32.760] Now let's go to Leigh Ann.
[01:37:32.760 --> 01:37:35.760] Leigh Ann, how can we help you?
[01:37:35.760 --> 01:37:36.760] Hi, Eddie.
[01:37:36.760 --> 01:37:41.760] I'm in Houston and I'm helping a friend of mine out.
[01:37:41.760 --> 01:37:51.760] She was pulled over just before the first of the year because she had purchased
[01:37:51.760 --> 01:37:56.760] another automobile and the temporary tag had expired.
[01:37:56.760 --> 01:38:03.760] She had contacted the guy that she bought it from who was supposed to have sent
[01:38:03.760 --> 01:38:09.760] in for the title application and the plate and had not been able to connect
[01:38:09.760 --> 01:38:12.760] with him to get updated plates.
[01:38:12.760 --> 01:38:18.760] So she got pulled over in the evening and she gave them first a document that
[01:38:18.760 --> 01:38:29.760] said, I'm not a person, I'm not a resident, I'm a woman, this.
[01:38:29.760 --> 01:38:37.760] And they read it all and it had in there about not needing a driver's license
[01:38:37.760 --> 01:38:39.760] and this kind of thing.
[01:38:39.760 --> 01:38:47.760] They read it all and they kept holding her and telling her they needed some
[01:38:47.760 --> 01:38:51.760] identification other than that.
[01:38:51.760 --> 01:39:02.760] And she eventually gave them her passport.
[01:39:02.760 --> 01:39:08.760] They couldn't get any information off of either the VIN.
[01:39:08.760 --> 01:39:11.760] They ran her a VIN.
[01:39:11.760 --> 01:39:21.760] And apparently, well, ultimately she got a ticket under her passport number
[01:39:21.760 --> 01:39:28.760] and name and they said that they would take her in and confiscate her car
[01:39:28.760 --> 01:39:33.760] and take her children to the CDC if she didn't give an address
[01:39:33.760 --> 01:39:34.760] and sign the ticket.
[01:39:34.760 --> 01:39:43.760] They gave her a ticket for expired inspection sticker, expired license,
[01:39:43.760 --> 01:39:49.760] improper titling, no driver's license, and no proof of insurance.
[01:39:49.760 --> 01:39:54.760] But she never identified herself as a driver, only as a traveler.
[01:39:54.760 --> 01:39:59.760] Okay, well, here's the problem with the charges.
[01:39:59.760 --> 01:40:07.760] The fact is is she only provided them with the passport as a form of ID.
[01:40:07.760 --> 01:40:13.760] And remember, folks, there is no law in existence that requires any American
[01:40:13.760 --> 01:40:20.760] citizen to possess state or federally issued ID of any kind.
[01:40:20.760 --> 01:40:24.760] There is no such law.
[01:40:24.760 --> 01:40:32.760] Given that, if she only provided them with the passport, every other charge is
[01:40:32.760 --> 01:40:37.760] based upon presumption, not fact.
[01:40:37.760 --> 01:40:41.760] If she did not give them proof of insurance and they charged her for not having
[01:40:41.760 --> 01:40:49.760] it without verifying positively that she didn't, that's a false charge.
[01:40:49.760 --> 01:40:52.760] The rest of them will follow suit.
[01:40:52.760 --> 01:40:57.760] As far as improper titling, they're very aware that the title isn't currently in
[01:40:57.760 --> 01:41:02.760] her name as she informed them of that, didn't she?
[01:41:02.760 --> 01:41:09.760] She had a document that showed that she purchased the car, and I don't know
[01:41:09.760 --> 01:41:13.760] whether she had told them that it was, you know, that she was waiting on it or
[01:41:13.760 --> 01:41:19.760] what, but obviously it did not have current plates on it, it had dealer plates
[01:41:19.760 --> 01:41:22.760] on it or buyer plates.
[01:41:22.760 --> 01:41:23.760] Okay.
[01:41:23.760 --> 01:41:24.760] That were expired.
[01:41:24.760 --> 01:41:27.760] And she bought it from a used car lot?
[01:41:27.760 --> 01:41:33.760] Apparently, but it wasn't like a big name one or so because...
[01:41:33.760 --> 01:41:35.760] Okay, well, that's still irrelevant.
[01:41:35.760 --> 01:41:41.760] If she paid the dealer for the procedure of getting the car registered and the
[01:41:41.760 --> 01:41:48.760] dealer failed to do it, then she needs to pull him in on this.
[01:41:48.760 --> 01:41:53.760] She needs to file a cross complaint against the dealer for not getting the title
[01:41:53.760 --> 01:42:05.760] properly to her because that's a very big problem for a dealer in Texas.
[01:42:05.760 --> 01:42:08.760] Okay.
[01:42:08.760 --> 01:42:09.760] All right.
[01:42:09.760 --> 01:42:12.760] I have a court date for the 31st.
[01:42:12.760 --> 01:42:19.760] Then she needs to get a subpoena into the court for the car dealer, and the
[01:42:19.760 --> 01:42:23.760] subpoena needs to demand that he produce all records related to the sale of this
[01:42:23.760 --> 01:42:30.760] car, the application for title, the whole nine yards.
[01:42:30.760 --> 01:42:36.760] If she wasn't operating in commerce, though, which she told them repeatedly,
[01:42:36.760 --> 01:42:39.760] I'm not in commerce.
[01:42:39.760 --> 01:42:43.760] Is she prepared to make that legal argument?
[01:42:43.760 --> 01:42:44.760] Say what now?
[01:42:44.760 --> 01:42:48.760] Is she properly prepared to make that legal argument?
[01:42:48.760 --> 01:42:53.760] Does she know the law itself and court procedure well enough to get that in and
[01:42:53.760 --> 01:42:59.760] prove it to the jury?
[01:42:59.760 --> 01:43:03.760] She's Chinese and doesn't speak English well.
[01:43:03.760 --> 01:43:09.760] Then I would say the answer to that is absolutely not.
[01:43:09.760 --> 01:43:16.760] So the problem they've got for this ticket or set of charges anyway is that one,
[01:43:16.760 --> 01:43:21.760] they're going to have to provide her with a Chinese interpreter because they
[01:43:21.760 --> 01:43:26.760] can't prosecute her when English is not her first language without one.
[01:43:26.760 --> 01:43:32.760] But she's not going to have a clue how to present her case, and a lawyer is
[01:43:32.760 --> 01:43:35.760] just going to steal her blind.
[01:43:35.760 --> 01:43:40.760] So this in and of itself is a sticky, wicked kind of situation.
[01:43:40.760 --> 01:43:43.760] I tell you what, this is going to be a little long to handle on air.
[01:43:43.760 --> 01:43:47.760] So if you would please send me some contact information via e-mail.
[01:43:47.760 --> 01:43:52.760] I will get in touch with you offline and see what else I can help you with.
[01:43:52.760 --> 01:43:53.760] Okay?
[01:43:53.760 --> 01:43:54.760] Okay, Doug.

[01:46:03.760 --> 01:46:19.760] All right, folks, we are back, Rule of Law Radio.
[01:46:19.760 --> 01:46:22.760] This is Eddie Craig, Deborah Stevens.
[01:46:22.760 --> 01:46:26.760] Okay, we have a couple other callers on the board.
[01:46:26.760 --> 01:46:29.760] We have Nikki in Texas, a first-time caller.
[01:46:29.760 --> 01:46:31.760] Hi, Nikki, how can we help you?
[01:46:31.760 --> 01:46:32.760] Oh, I'm fine.
[01:46:32.760 --> 01:46:36.760] I'm just so grateful that I had the opportunity to talk to you,
[01:46:36.760 --> 01:46:38.760] and I thank you for taking my call.
[01:46:38.760 --> 01:46:40.760] Amen.
[01:46:40.760 --> 01:46:47.760] I'm here in Austin, and at one point I was living in Abilene,
[01:46:47.760 --> 01:46:54.760] and to get from Austin to Abilene I had to drive 183,
[01:46:54.760 --> 01:47:08.760] and I went through a little town called Gold Lake that is about 88 miles from Austin in Mills County,
[01:47:08.760 --> 01:47:19.760] and I learned going through that county that I could be lynched and hung by the sheriff,
[01:47:19.760 --> 01:47:22.760] whose name is Doug Story.
[01:47:22.760 --> 01:47:27.760] And believe me, they put me in jail.
[01:47:27.760 --> 01:47:33.760] I wasn't driving my car, but I was driving my son, and I didn't have my license with me,
[01:47:33.760 --> 01:47:38.760] but the car had everything on it.
[01:47:38.760 --> 01:47:45.760] He's in the military, and so he had insurance.
[01:47:45.760 --> 01:47:50.760] The car was licensed, insured.
[01:47:50.760 --> 01:47:55.760] Everything was to date on that vehicle.
[01:47:55.760 --> 01:48:04.760] They harassed me, the DPS, with this guy, Doug Story, because in that town he's the sheriff,
[01:48:04.760 --> 01:48:16.760] but he also works with the DPS, and the DPS uses his jail to put people in.
[01:48:16.760 --> 01:48:19.760] They're really hard on black people up there.
[01:48:19.760 --> 01:48:22.760] They put me in jail.
[01:48:22.760 --> 01:48:27.760] George Walker Bush had me put in jail to lynch and hang me.
[01:48:27.760 --> 01:48:30.760] This was in 2005.
[01:48:30.760 --> 01:48:35.760] They are still on my—they held me in jail nine months.
[01:48:35.760 --> 01:48:44.760] Every holiday, like Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday, Martin Luther King Jr.'s anniversary,
[01:48:44.760 --> 01:48:47.760] the anniversary of his death,
[01:48:47.760 --> 01:48:53.760] they were going to lynch and hang me, but I had kept contact with the United States Congress,
[01:48:53.760 --> 01:48:57.760] and they were working on the case trying to get me out of there.
[01:48:57.760 --> 01:49:00.760] I had to stay in there nine months.
[01:49:00.760 --> 01:49:03.760] Everything they did to me was illegal.
[01:49:03.760 --> 01:49:06.760] Rick Perry is in on it.
[01:49:06.760 --> 01:49:10.760] I can't know who else, but I can tell you this.
[01:49:10.760 --> 01:49:20.760] They had me under death threats, death watch, and this federal judge
[01:49:20.760 --> 01:49:27.760] that was murdered in Nottingham, Arizona, Mr. John Rowe,
[01:49:27.760 --> 01:49:35.760] had signed a death warrant for George Walker Bush to lynch and hang me
[01:49:35.760 --> 01:49:46.760] so that his daughter, Barbara Pierce Bush, can be initiated into the Texas night of the Ku Klux Klan.
[01:49:46.760 --> 01:49:48.760] I was absolutely appalled.
[01:49:48.760 --> 01:49:58.760] But what they did was they fixed it where I cannot get a civil rights lawyer or any attorney.
[01:49:58.760 --> 01:50:05.760] I've been struggling with this thing now since 2004,
[01:50:05.760 --> 01:50:17.760] and they did lynch and hang a young black man at Galway jail on April 4, 2005,
[01:50:17.760 --> 01:50:22.760] which was the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
[01:50:22.760 --> 01:50:28.760] He was a black man, and I understand they had lynched and hung his parents,
[01:50:28.760 --> 01:50:34.760] who were traveling from Houston through that small town, the DPS did.
[01:50:34.760 --> 01:50:36.760] So they lynched and hung him.
[01:50:36.760 --> 01:50:40.760] I refused to step outside of the cell.
[01:50:40.760 --> 01:50:46.760] I had enough sense to say, no, I am not coming out there.
[01:50:46.760 --> 01:50:54.760] I was the only woman in the old jail, black, white, brown, anyways.
[01:50:54.760 --> 01:50:59.760] And I had heard the people talking in the office,
[01:50:59.760 --> 01:51:03.760] and they definitely intended to lynch and hang me that night.
[01:51:03.760 --> 01:51:07.760] I refused to go out, but they did go and get Kevin Smith,
[01:51:07.760 --> 01:51:10.760] who was the black man who was being held there.
[01:51:10.760 --> 01:51:19.760] And the story is the head executioner paid by Rick Perry for the state of Texas
[01:51:19.760 --> 01:51:23.760] to lynch and hang people in this state.
[01:51:23.760 --> 01:51:36.760] And in 2009 alone, there were 2,248 people lynched and hung in the state of Texas
[01:51:36.760 --> 01:51:41.760] and surrounding areas that allow lynching and hanging.
[01:51:41.760 --> 01:51:47.760] And I refused to leave until this matter is taken care of.
[01:51:47.760 --> 01:51:49.760] I have no lawyer.
[01:51:49.760 --> 01:51:52.760] I don't really know what to do.
[01:51:52.760 --> 01:51:54.760] I don't know what I'm charged with.
[01:51:54.760 --> 01:51:55.760] I really don't.
[01:51:55.760 --> 01:52:02.760] All I do know is that it has gone from state of Texas to federal,
[01:52:02.760 --> 01:52:11.760] and that my neck, if I guess they want to, could be on the chopping block
[01:52:11.760 --> 01:52:17.760] or I could be lynched and hung from some tree or some gallows.
[01:52:17.760 --> 01:52:25.760] So I'm very concerned about my safety and the safety of other people
[01:52:25.760 --> 01:52:34.760] who must drive on 183 heading from Austin into Gold Lake,
[01:52:34.760 --> 01:52:40.760] Mills County, Brownwood, going on into Abilene.
[01:52:40.760 --> 01:52:46.760] And the reason I'm concerned is that we have the military in Iowa,
[01:52:46.760 --> 01:52:51.760] the United States Air Force, we have one there in Abilene.
[01:52:51.760 --> 01:53:00.760] And we have military men and women coming from Abilene into Austin
[01:53:00.760 --> 01:53:09.760] who might get stopped on this highway that is Ku Klux Klan adopted.
[01:53:09.760 --> 01:53:13.760] And they could be, you know, telling how many military men and women
[01:53:13.760 --> 01:53:18.760] that are missing because they're dead.
[01:53:18.760 --> 01:53:22.760] And what they do, it's a rocket now with the DCS,
[01:53:22.760 --> 01:53:25.760] because after they murder these people, black people,
[01:53:25.760 --> 01:53:28.760] that's the only one I heard of that was murdered there,
[01:53:28.760 --> 01:53:33.760] and know about Kevin, they have a doctor right next door to the jail.
[01:53:33.760 --> 01:53:40.760] After he's resting on outside there between the jail and the doctor's office,
[01:53:40.760 --> 01:53:44.760] they immediately take his body parts.
[01:53:44.760 --> 01:53:49.760] Immediately, Doug's story of his wife is a nurse.
[01:53:49.760 --> 01:53:51.760] She works with the doctor.
[01:53:51.760 --> 01:53:56.760] So they immediately after this person had been tortured by lynching and hanging,
[01:53:56.760 --> 01:54:01.760] they immediately take the body parts and they sell those.
[01:54:01.760 --> 01:54:07.760] It is so shocking and appalling in the 21st century.
[01:54:07.760 --> 01:54:11.760] Well, Nikki, the only thing is I understand the story
[01:54:11.760 --> 01:54:16.760] and I understand the seriousness of it, but exactly what is it you're wanting us to do
[01:54:16.760 --> 01:54:19.760] other than just let you voice that on the air?
[01:54:19.760 --> 01:54:22.760] Well, I want to voice it, but not only just voice it.
[01:54:22.760 --> 01:54:24.760] I want to find out what I could do.
[01:54:24.760 --> 01:54:35.760] If you might have some type of form for something
[01:54:35.760 --> 01:54:41.760] that maybe I can fill out since I haven't a lawyer and they won't allow me to have one.
[01:54:41.760 --> 01:54:46.760] Well, the only issue here is we don't have forms that would fit anything
[01:54:46.760 --> 01:54:48.760] like you're talking about here.
[01:54:48.760 --> 01:54:52.760] What you're talking about in the way of forms, I presume, is legal filings.
[01:54:52.760 --> 01:54:53.760] Yes.
[01:54:53.760 --> 01:54:58.760] But the issue here is if you don't know how to pursue them once they're in court,
[01:54:58.760 --> 01:55:02.760] just filing the documents isn't really going to do you any good.
[01:55:02.760 --> 01:55:06.760] In fact, if everything you're stating is correct,
[01:55:06.760 --> 01:55:09.760] it would most likely put you in even more danger.
[01:55:09.760 --> 01:55:13.760] That's true because I did file on them.
[01:55:13.760 --> 01:55:15.760] As I said, they've taken over.
[01:55:15.760 --> 01:55:18.760] I moved out of my house.
[01:55:18.760 --> 01:55:19.760] Okay.
[01:55:19.760 --> 01:55:25.760] Well, the next question I need to ask you is what evidence do you have to support what you're stating?
[01:55:25.760 --> 01:55:28.760] Absolutely none.
[01:55:28.760 --> 01:55:32.760] I have no weight. It's 88 miles from Austin.
[01:55:32.760 --> 01:55:34.760] It's out in the middle of nowhere.
[01:55:34.760 --> 01:55:37.760] When I left that jail, they gave me no papers.
[01:55:37.760 --> 01:55:40.760] I can't prove that I was ever there.
[01:55:40.760 --> 01:55:44.760] And they've taken me, I understand, out of the computer.
[01:55:44.760 --> 01:55:48.760] It's not like I'm even in the computer.
[01:55:48.760 --> 01:55:52.760] So if you're not in the computer, then you're dead.
[01:55:52.760 --> 01:55:55.760] That is my concern.
[01:55:55.760 --> 01:55:58.760] Well, that's not exactly true.
[01:55:58.760 --> 01:56:04.760] That just simply means if it's an isolated station that they don't have any record of you in that station.
[01:56:04.760 --> 01:56:08.760] That doesn't mean they shouldn't, but that's really all that means.
[01:56:08.760 --> 01:56:12.760] Now, in the case of what you're dealing with here,
[01:56:12.760 --> 01:56:15.760] I'd be happy to try to talk with you about this offline,
[01:56:15.760 --> 01:56:20.760] but there's not going to be a lot I can recommend to you here on the show.
[01:56:20.760 --> 01:56:22.760] There just isn't.
[01:56:22.760 --> 01:56:29.760] This is way too much information and way too big an issue, set of issues actually,
[01:56:29.760 --> 01:56:32.760] and it's way beyond what we're going to be able to cover on the show.
[01:56:32.760 --> 01:56:33.760] All right.
[01:56:33.760 --> 01:56:36.760] The biggest problem you face is evidence to prove what you're saying.
[01:56:36.760 --> 01:56:41.760] Without evidence, you can't even take the information before a grand jury.
[01:56:41.760 --> 01:56:43.760] That's true.
[01:56:43.760 --> 01:56:46.760] So that becomes the problem.
[01:56:46.760 --> 01:56:50.760] How do you get the evidence without putting yourself further within their reach
[01:56:50.760 --> 01:56:52.760] or endangering yourself further?
[01:56:52.760 --> 01:56:57.760] Absolutely, and I have written up to Mills County
[01:56:57.760 --> 01:57:01.760] asking for them to send me something, anything,
[01:57:01.760 --> 01:57:08.760] because what they did was they would take me from Goldway over to Comanche,
[01:57:08.760 --> 01:57:10.760] you know, those two little towns in there,
[01:57:10.760 --> 01:57:14.760] and they already listed some guys over at Comanche.
[01:57:14.760 --> 01:57:23.760] So I was really in a – I just thank God for our old United States Congress,
[01:57:23.760 --> 01:57:30.760] because when Mr. Kennedy and some – Stephanie Davis-Jones and those people were on the Congress,
[01:57:30.760 --> 01:57:33.760] they did fight for my rights.
[01:57:33.760 --> 01:57:39.760] I would not be alive had it not been for God and them to get me out of there.
[01:57:39.760 --> 01:57:40.760] Okay.
[01:57:40.760 --> 01:57:44.760] Well, I can appreciate that position, I really can, but if it's all right,
[01:57:44.760 --> 01:57:48.760] if you'll send me an email offline, I'll talk with you about it there,
[01:57:48.760 --> 01:57:51.760] but we've only got a minute left and we've got one other caller I'd like to try to get to.
[01:57:51.760 --> 01:57:54.760] We've got two, but we're not going to be able to get to Gary.
[01:57:54.760 --> 01:57:57.760] So if you don't mind, Nikki, I'd like to go ahead and move on,
[01:57:57.760 --> 01:57:59.760] and you can just talk to him about this offline, okay?
[01:57:59.760 --> 01:58:00.760] All right.
[01:58:00.760 --> 01:58:01.760] Thank you so much.
[01:58:01.760 --> 01:58:02.760] All right.
[01:58:02.760 --> 01:58:04.760] Thank you.
[01:58:04.760 --> 01:58:05.760] All right.
[01:58:05.760 --> 01:58:08.760] Robin, if you could make this less than 50 seconds, you're good.
[01:58:08.760 --> 01:58:11.760] What can I do for you?
[01:58:11.760 --> 01:58:14.760] Tort letter, threat of a bar grievance.
[01:58:14.760 --> 01:58:21.760] Can I put those together in a tort letter, a threat of a bar grievance, or is that –
[01:58:21.760 --> 01:58:24.760] Well, you can do the bar grievance without a tort letter.
[01:58:24.760 --> 01:58:27.760] Do that anyway if you have a proper complaint.
[01:58:27.760 --> 01:58:30.760] The tort letter is just to let them know you're going to sue them.
[01:58:30.760 --> 01:58:32.760] Correct.
[01:58:32.760 --> 01:58:34.760] Can I use the threat of a bar grievance?
[01:58:34.760 --> 01:58:36.760] So the answer is yes, you can do it, but there's no need.
[01:58:36.760 --> 01:58:39.760] Just do the bar grievance separate.
[01:58:39.760 --> 01:58:40.760] Okay.
[01:58:40.760 --> 01:58:43.760] And I can do it for each different thing that didn't help with it?
[01:58:43.760 --> 01:58:44.760] That's correct.
[01:58:44.760 --> 01:58:48.760] You can bar grieve them for every act they did that was a violation of law.
[01:58:48.760 --> 01:58:49.760] Okay.
[01:58:49.760 --> 01:58:50.760] Good.
[01:58:50.760 --> 01:58:51.760] Okay.
[01:58:51.760 --> 01:58:52.760] Thank you.
[01:58:52.760 --> 01:58:53.760] All right.
[01:58:53.760 --> 01:58:54.760] Thank you.
[01:58:54.760 --> 01:58:55.760] All right.
[01:58:55.760 --> 01:58:56.760] Sorry, Gary.
[01:58:56.760 --> 01:58:57.760] I'm not going to have time to get to you.
[01:58:57.760 --> 01:58:58.760] Folks, thank you for listening in.
[01:58:58.760 --> 01:59:07.760] We'll see you next time.
[01:59:28.760 --> 01:59:48.760] Thank you.
[01:59:48.760 --> 01:59:58.760] Thank you.
