Free will is tangent and can only be unified for cause; unification can only remain if connection is just. That which is just, just is and acceptance is Justice for just us in acceptance; this is to be in-justice. Privilege is something observed but not recognized by all nor granted to each.
A band of Free People of Will broke their chains to history, historical connections and formed connection in recognition of Freedom. This happened once in America when the King of England was the most powerful Force and Figurehead in the world. Individuals joined to observe the land of the free and it was inhabited by those without government and they were called Savages and could be claimed as Slaves because they only knew them as Slaves and Savages, not People. They unified in hope and power of might in Unity and set a unanimous declaration that “When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.” This applied to People, not all, and mankind was of Men. They recognized their short comings and knew that anything was better than being subject of control. A subject of control is a Slave. They hoped for better and more understance with time and progress.
They continued in proclamation to declare, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, –That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security,” and declared this because they knew nothing else. Only the light of the future could enlighten future generations and they assured themselves that this was right and the path of Righteousness would continue to develop as they began to blaze the present with their light of Truth. This was the richness of the Age of Enlightenment. The product was the birth of independence that cut ties to dependence. They succeeded in their quest for recognition of independence but granted dependence upon the group in Union, the United States. Creation of the city state created the City-Zen (Zen is State of attent to observe and monitor the state and state of being) and thus developing City Sons (citizens) who would serve the attent of State.
Those that sought and fought to be free did not see bond to state above the needs of Free Will and recognized this a controlled will. They declared the leader of control to be a Tyrant in practice of tyranny. They stated the following as cause for division to freedom.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
After division, the quest for unification in a new nation, later framed in the Constitution of the United States of America, but division remained in Unification and this was expected to resolve through Legislation by and of citizens, courts of justice served by judges of juris (right for all) and elected leader of, for and by the People. The US Constitution opens with, “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” This attempt at peace did not quell division and the period of revolution for independence transitioned to the Civil War Era. Those in the cause for Freedom knew that none could be control or denied out. If any could be property, all could be property. Classism was denied but present in definition of State and Union, leaders and president, citizen and not. Exclusion and inclusion are both control and this control was used by the state, government and Union to deny access to rights. It was certain that rights could never be denied and those called right but denied to some are privilege. Privilege is control of class, classism and hierarchy. The US Civil war was defined by separation of groups and factions that would not unite in cause to separate from government to reform government or abandon it but control was the cause and the enemy of all sides. Abraham Lincoln addressed the people of this cause after defeat at Gettysburg in attempt to re-empower their cause to fight and survive as free in union. In this Gettysburg Address, he said,
“Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow—this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”
In attempt to honor his words, the nation was recollected as a country, denying power of states over people and Union over all, powered by force of individuals. The leader of this cause would be killed and all the soldiers who would fight were also killed. Families were broken, destroyed or gone and there was nothing left to save but the economy of those who still saw cause for it. The people settled for peace over freedom, life over extermination, in hopes that they could still try. The Nation countered with imposition of three Constitutional amendments:
This Amendment codifies Slavery in the system and freedom is codified as right of privilege not inherent to all and both requires and allows the power of the courts to impose slavery as punishment for acts against the state, country and union.
This amendment addresses only privilege and denies existence of Rights to any and all while granting power to State and government to deny recognized privileges to citizens by process of law without regard to juris or justice and only due process while forcing citizenship to any who may believe they are separate of the State and/or United States, like those who seceded in separation or would, those previously unrecognized and the Native Aboriginals of the land, even if granted treaty to reside on sovereign land in concentration camps called reservations.
The 15th Amendment grants right to vote to all who are recognized as citizens, granting them say in governing and government access as such and provides enticement to claim citizenship for those purposes with all other sovereignty denied by the 14th Amendment.
From here the nation carried forward in forced realized unification and denial of Freedom as right and Will of the People chartered to right to vote, which can be dissolved by due process making it privilege, but the economy sustained and was exalted over the needs of individuals and groups within the union of these United States. Political interest was assumed by and in Party as parties had pooled funds to push interest over scattered individuals.
Today we are here. Life With Jaco has sought the views of individual observers of the process to join in journalistic quest to explore and understand why we are here, what to do next and how to accomplish what needs to be done.
