Former UAW President Gary Jones Charged With Conspiring To Steal Money From Union – Will Plead Guilty

Personally , this is how I see most of these labor union bosses .
They aren ’ t really out for the people they are supposed to serve .
They are out for themselves , much like many in the political world .
Former UAW President Gary Jones has been charged by federal prosecutors with conspiring to embezzle union funds , according to the Wall Street Journal .
For five years , federal investigators have pieced together a broad pattern of corruption within the United Automobile Workers .
They documented the diversion of dues for high living by union officials @ @ @ @ @ @ @ compromised dealings with a leading automaker .
Now prosecutors have taken aim at their biggest target yet , charging a former U.A.W .
president with embezzlement of union funds .
And they left no doubt that there may be more to come — possibly including a federal takeover of the union , a pillar of the nation ’ s labor movement .
In a criminal filing unsealed Thursday , the former president , Gary Jones , is accused of misusing more than $ 1 million of union money for extravagant meals , golf @ @ @ @ @ @ @ purposes over several years before his election in 2018 .
He is the highest-ranking U.A.W .
official to be prosecuted in the inquiry , in which more than a dozen people have pleaded guilty , including several former union officers and three former Fiat Chrysler executives .
One of those executives , the company ’ s chief labor negotiator , was found to have used funds from a training program for union workers to buy a Ferrari and renovate his home .
“ We stand before you because of greed — greed of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Steven M. D ’ Antuono , a federal special agent who worked on the case , said on Thursday at a news conference in Detroit .
On their own , the various elements of the scandal , which came to light through an investigation that began in 2015 , appear lurid but relatively small-time .
In one case , a senior union official who once held a seat on G.M.

Back in November , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which came just weeks after the union struck a deal with General Motors to end one of the longest labor strikes in history .

Back in November, we reported Jones’s resignation, which came just weeks after the union struck a deal with General Motors to end one of the longest labor strikes in history. Jones had already been on ‘leave’ for a few weeks when he left. 10 others – mostly former union officials – have pleaded guilty to federal corruption charges as part of the investigation.

Over the summer, the FBI raided Jones’s home, which we reported at the time.
If he hadn’t resigned, Jones would have been facing a ‘union trial’ over the alleged misuse of funds, though it’s believed he won’t be facing the proceeding now that he has resigned.
Around the same time, GM sued Fiat Chrysler alleging the auto manufacturer bribed top UAW officials to secure better terms during a labor negotiation. The investigation is believed to have initiated over the bribes, which encouraged the union leadership to screw over the workers to whom they were responsible to brazenly enrich themselves.

Encouraging The Police State: Federal Courts Rule Individuals Shot By Police But Not Immediately Arrested May Not Sue Police For Wrongdoing Under The Fourth Amendment
WASHINGTON, DC — In a case before the U.S. Supreme Court that could determine how far the courts may go in shielding police from being held accountable for wrongdoing, The Rutherford Institute is challenging a lower court ruling that prevents victims of police shootings for suing police for violations of their civil rights if the shooting did not result in an immediate arrest.
In an amicus brief filed jointly with the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (NACDL) in Torres v. Madrid, Rutherford Institute attorneys argue that lower courts erred in ruling police did not violate the Fourth Amendment rights of a woman who, mistaking police officers for carjackers, fled from police, was pursued and shot twice in the back.
The lower courts reasoned that because the woman was not arrested, she had not technically been “seized” by the police and, thus, could not sue police for “unreasonable searches and seizures” in violation of the Fourth Amendment.
Affiliate attorneys Jeffrey T. Green and John L. Gibbons of Sidley Austin, LLP, and Sarah O’Rourke Schrup of the Northwestern Supreme Court Law Clinic assisted The Rutherford Institute and the NACDL in advancing the arguments in Torres.
“This particular case underscores the unfortunate reality that we live in an age of hollow justice,” said constitutional attorney John W. Whitehead, president of The Rutherford Institute and author of Battlefield America: The War on the American People . “With every ruling handed down, it becomes apparent that the courts are more inclined to render narrow rulings that protect government interests than they are committed to upholding the rights of the people enshrined in the U.S. Constitution.”
Early in the morning of July 15, 2014, Roxanne Torres dropped a friend off at an apartment complex in Albuquerque, N.M.
After parking and exiting her car, Torres reentered and remained in the car with the engine running and the car doors locked.
At that same time, four New Mexico State Police officers arrived at the complex intending to arrest a woman who was not related to Torres.
Two of the officers approached Torres’s car and, with guns drawn, attempted to open the driver’s side door.
Because the officers wore indistinguishable dark clothing and Torres did not hear what they shouted at her, Torres mistook them for carjackers and attempted to drive away.
After the car moved forward mere inches, the police opened fire on Torres and she accelerated away.
The officers continued shooting at Torres, firing 13 shots in all, two of which struck Torres in the back, paralyzing her right arm.
Torres drove a short distance before she was forced by her injuries to stop.
When a bystander refused to call police on her behalf, she found another car and drove it to a hospital, where she was airlifted to another hospital due to the seriousness of her injuries.
She was subsequently arrested on charges related to fleeing the police.
Torres, in turn, sued the police for using excessive force in violation of the Fourth Amendment’s prohibition on “unreasonable searches and seizures.”
However, the trial and appeals courts ruled that because Torres was able to escape after being shot, she had not technically been “seized” by the police.
In their amicus brief before the U.S. Supreme Court, which has agreed to hear the case, The Rutherford Institute and the NACDL argue that all uses of unreasonable and excessive force by police merit review under the Fourth Amendment, whether or not the victims of police brutality are arrested or temporarily elude capture.

Like its namesake , the Biden campaign does odd and inexplicable things .
Even as a panicked Democrat establishment united to boost him to a win on Super Tuesday , Biden was in the one major state that he lost badly to Bernie Sanders .
And when he decided to give a loudly incoherent victory speech , he did it in Los Angeles , putting him within reach of Bernie Sanders supporters and animal rights activists .
Two of them upstaged him and birthed a thousand memes by leaping on to the stage with anti-dairy signs .

Colorado:  Woman Gets $325,000 From Taxpayers After Horrifying Video Showed Cop Hit Her 61 Times With Baton

Fort Collins , CO — Natasha Patnode received word last month that she will be receiving $ 325,000 from the city of Fort Collins — roughly $ 5,300 for every baton blow doled out by a Fort Collins police officer that struck her body .
She was suspected of shoplifting clothing and was nearly killed over it .
On March 29 , 2018 , Fort Collins police officer Todd Hopkins was called in to arrest Patnode after she was accused of stealing clothing from a Target store .
Hopkins senselessly and needlessly escalated force during the arrest , which led @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the end of the officer ’ s job with the Fort Collins police department .
Prior to Hopkins arriving on the scene , Patnode was attempting to evade a loss prevention employee from Target .
When Hopkins arrived , things turned violent fast .
Hopkins grabbed the woman by the collar , threw her to the ground , pepper sprayed her , and began unleashing a fury of punches and baton blows in a beating that would last several minutes .
Patnode did not appear to pose a threat to the officer and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ his rampage , curled up in the fetal position on the floor as this woman-beating cop laid into her .
Surveillance video showed Hopkins threw Patnode to the ground , punched her multiple times in the side while she was on the ground and struck her repeatedly with a baton while trying to handcuff her .
Throughout the beating , Patnode remained on the floor in a curled position .
Five minutes after Hopkins first took Patnode to the ground , a second officer arrived on the scene .
His body camera footage @ @ @ @ @ @ @ give them her second arm , which was beneath her body .
Patnode said she would give it to them but couldn ’ t because Hopkins was sitting on her head .
The second officer then Tased Patnode twice in the back .
After Patnode ’ s second arm was freed and officers had control of both hands , Hopkins Tasered her again .
After she was handcuffed , Hopkins continued to sit on her head and punched her once because she was holding her purse .
Even after both of Patnode ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Hopkins continued to use his Taser on her , which can be seen about 8:15 minutes into the body camera footage .
“ You can not beat me like you was , ” Patnode said after cops finally put the handcuffs on her .
“ I can strike you , I can restrain you , I can Tase you — you were resisting arrest , ” Hopkins said before threatening to taser the handcuffed woman .
“ I still have my Taser probes inserted into your back , so if you go uncooperative @ @ @ @ @ @ @ again for five more seconds , ” Hopkins said .
Patnode admitted she did steal the clothing from Target and later pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor shoplifting charge .
However , she was not charged with resisting arrest .
After the beating was investigated , the District Attorney claimed Hopkins did nothing wrong .
“ While disturbing to watch , it should be noted that Ms. Patnode repeatedly ignored commands , refused to remove her hand from underneath her , and refused to surrender the purse , which was also underneath her , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a letter clearing the officer of criminal wrongdoing .
“ Those actions by Ms. Patnode only reinforced Officer Hopkins ’ concerns that the suspect may have a weapon of some type in her purse.
” Amazingly enough , however , the police chief disagreed and moved to fire the officer for excessive force .
“ Just because something is deemed lawful from the district attorney doesn ’ t mean it ’ s appropriate ” or “ in line with our training , ” Fort Collins Police Services Chief Jeff Swoboda said in an @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , Swoboda said the recommendation by Officer Todd Hopkins ’ chain of command was for him to be fired .
However , before Swoboda could fire him , Patnode quietly resigned to avoid the discipline — a common move for cops in trouble .
David Lane filed Patnode ’ s lawsuit along with several others against the Fort Collins police department who has an ominous track record at best — especially when it comes to beating up women .
“ My law firm has four cases pending against the Fort Collins police department @ @ @ @ @ @ @ said in a statement provided to the Coloradoan last month .
“ Three of the four cases have videos of officers brutalizing women .
This settlement is the tip of the iceberg and much more taxpayer money will be spent on cleaning up the messes made by the police department.
” Michaella Surat was a sorority girl who was violently slammed to the ground .
An 80-year-old Fort Collins man , Stanley Cropp , was violently tackled by Fort Collins police while walking in his neighborhood .
Joe Heneghan was pepper sprayed after @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a Fort Collins cop entry into his home .
While off duty , officer Stephen Sparacio stopped Kimberly Chancellor outside of her apartment complex on October 6 , 2017 .
He accused her of speeding and then viciously attacked and arrested her .

Hopkins grabbed the woman by the collar, threw her to the ground, pepper sprayed her, and began unleashing a fury of punches and baton blows in a beating that would last several minutes.
Patnode did not appear to pose a threat to the officer and simply seemed to be shielding herself from his rampage, curled up in the fetal position on the floor as this woman-beating cop laid into her.
As the Denver Post reports:

Patnode said she would give it to them but couldn’t because Hopkins was sitting on her head. The second officer then Tased Patnode twice in the back. After Patnode’s second arm was freed and officers had control of both hands, Hopkins Tasered her again. After she was handcuffed, Hopkins continued to sit on her head and punched her once because she was holding her purse.
Even after both of Patnode’s hands were behind her back, Hopkins continued to use his Taser on her, which can be seen about 8:15 minutes into the body camera footage.
“You cannot beat me like you was,” Patnode said after cops finally put the handcuffs on her.
“I can strike you, I can restrain you, I can Tase you — you were resisting arrest,” Hopkins said before threatening to taser the handcuffed woman.
“I still have my Taser probes inserted into your back, so if you go uncooperative again I’ll light you up again for five more seconds,” Hopkins said.
Patnode admitted she did steal the clothing from Target and later pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor shoplifting charge. However, she was not charged with resisting arrest.
After the beating was investigated, the District Attorney claimed Hopkins did nothing wrong.
“While disturbing to watch, it should be noted that Ms. Patnode repeatedly ignored commands, refused to remove her hand from underneath her, and refused to surrender the purse, which was also underneath her,” stated District Attorney Cliff Riedel in a letter clearing the officer of criminal wrongdoing. “Those actions by Ms. Patnode only reinforced Officer Hopkins’ concerns that the suspect may have a weapon of some type in her purse.”
Amazingly enough, however, the police chief disagreed and moved to fire the officer for excessive force.
“Just because something is deemed lawful from the district attorney doesn’t mean it’s appropriate” or “in line with our training,” Fort Collins Police Services Chief Jeff Swoboda said in an interview.
After an internal affairs investigation, Swoboda said the recommendation by Officer Todd Hopkins’ chain of command was for him to be fired. However, before Swoboda could fire him, Patnode quietly resigned to avoid the discipline — a common move for cops in trouble.
David Lane filed Patnode’s lawsuit along with several others against the Fort Collins police department who has an ominous track record at best — especially when it comes to beating up women.
“My law firm has four cases pending against the Fort Collins police department for using excessive force,” Lane said in a statement provided to the Coloradoan last month. “Three of the four cases have videos of officers brutalizing women. This settlement is the tip of the iceberg and much more taxpayer money will be spent on cleaning up the messes made by the police department.”
Michaella Surat was a sorority girl who was violently slammed to the ground. An 80-year-old Fort Collins man, Stanley Cropp, was violently tackled by Fort Collins police while walking in his neighborhood. Joe Heneghan was pepper sprayed after refusing to show his ID and denied a Fort Collins cop entry into his home. While off duty, officer Stephen Sparacio stopped Kimberly Chancellor outside of her apartment complex on October 6, 2017. He accused her of speeding and then viciously attacked and arrested her.

Senior Editor Mollie Hemingway joined Fox News’ “Special Report” to discuss New York billionaire Mike Bloomberg’s historic level of campaign spending, and what it reveals about the power of media and establishment consensus.
Hemingway pointed out how Bloomberg’s failed campaign, despite unlimited resources, pokes holes in the popular narrative that Russia helped Donald Trump “steal” the 2016 election.
“WE HAD YEARS WHERE PEOPLE WERE SAYING A COUPLE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS IN BARELY LITERATE FACEBOOK ADS FROM RUSSIANS CAUSED DONALD TRUMP TO WIN. HERE YOU HAD A GUY SPEND NEARLY $1 BILLION AND HE WENT NOWHERE. IT’S A HUMILIATING DEFEAT FOR MICHAEL BLOOMBERG,” SHE SAID.
Host Bret Baier drilled the point home: “So Russians influenced the election with $200,000, or $300,000 in Facebook ads? And Mike Bloomberg couldn’t get more than 50 delegates with $600 million dollars?”
“And this hurts Bernie Sanders’s message, too, because he likes to say the billionaires control everything,” Hemingway said. “Clearly Bloomberg having all this money didn’t do as much for him as Biden having the media and the establishment behind him. I would pick media and establishment over millions all day.”

New University Model:  COVID-19 “Best Case Scenario” Death Toll Worldwide Is 15 Million – Global GDP Loss Of $2.4 Trillion

Over the past week , the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 outside of China more than tripled once again .
Hopefully , it is extremely unlikely that such a rapid growth rate will continue because if it does , there will be more than a million confirmed cases outside of China just a month from now .

That means that a whole lot of people will die if this virus can not be contained somehow .
Researchers at a major university in Australia modeled seven different scenarios for how a COVID-19 pandemic might go , and in the “ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 15 million… New modeling from The Australian National University looks at seven scenarios of how the COVID-19 outbreak might affect the world ’ s wealth , ranging from low severity to high severity .

Vice-President Pence had hoped to get a million testing kits to local communities this week, but that is simply not going to happen…
Mike Pence admitted Thursday that the administration will not be able to follow meet its promise to deliver one million coronavirus testing kits by the end of the week. ‘We don’t have enough tests today to meet what we anticipate the demand going forward,’ Pence said during a visit to a 3M Company plant in Minnesota Thursday afternoon.
Meanwhile, things are really starting to get weird out there.
The number of confirmed cases in the Seattle area has surged to 70, and authorities have transformed an aging EconoLodge into a “quarantine village”…
The EconoLodge in Kent, which is in the heart of the Seattle–Tacoma metropolitan area, will be America’s first Covid-19 quarantine village. As cases and deaths surge in Washington state, officials aren’t constructing modular hospitals in two weeks like China did last month, but rather buying existing commercial properties, such as motels, and stuffing infected people within. Markovich said another “Covid-19 quarantine village using modular units now underway at 1100 block of 128th St. in North Seattle. There has been no public announcement about this so far.”
I suppose that such facilities will be able to house a few hundred people, but what are local officials going to do if hundreds of thousands of people get the virus?
Once this virus begins to spread in a community, the number of cases can escalate at a staggering rate. If you have any doubt about this, just look at what is happening in France.
We will probably see that sort of a growth rate in certain communities here in the U.S., and that is truly chilling.
In Iran, the number of confirmed cases has now crossed the 3,500 mark, and it is being reported that “dozens of bodies” are piling up in Iranian morgues…
Dozens of bodies sheathed in black bags line the floor of an Iranian morgue, while workers in protective suits and masks busily walk among them. It’s unclear which, if any, of the people whose bodies lie in the morgue were infected with the coronavirus gripping the country, in this footage from inside Qom’s Behesht-e Masoumeh morgue.
The official death toll in Iran is only 107 at this point, but many believe that the true number is much, much higher.
As usual, the Iranians are blaming their problems on the United States and Israel. In fact, one Iranian general is publicly claiming that this virus is “a manmade bioweapon” that was purposely deployed against China and Iran…
An Iranian military leader has suggested that the coronavirus is not a naturally occurring disease, and that it is a manmade bioweapon cultivated and released against China and Iran by a ‘hostile state’. Brigadier General Gholam Reza Jalali, an Iranian officer in charge of the country’s Civil Defense Organization claimed Tuesday that “A study of the consequences of the virus in terms of tolls or the extent of the epidemic and the type of media propaganda over this issue that is aimed at increasing fear and panic among people strengthens the speculations that a biological attack has been launched against China and Iran with economic goals.”
Of course, the truth is that this virus has created a major crisis for the entire planet.
In the UK, there is so much anxiety about this virus that British supermarkets are actually preparing for “food riots”…
British supermarkets are prepared for food riots if panic buying becomes widespread in the worst-cast scenario of a coronavirus pandemic, a retail expert has said. Former Tesco supply chain director Bruno Monteyne said a major outbreak of the virus would result in ‘panic buying, empty shelves and food riots’ but that at this stage retailers would revert to ‘feed the nation’ status to avoid anyone going hungry.
And all over the western world, fans are already being banned from major sporting events in order to help prevent the spread of this disease.
If this outbreak continues to rapidly escalate, the way that we live our lives is going to be dramatically altered. So let us pray for mercy, because we definitely need it.
Sadly, many Americans are not getting prepared for a potential pandemic because they have been told over and over again that this virus is not any more dangerous than the flu.
That is definitely not true. As I explained the other day, the flu usually has a death rate of about 0.1 percent each year, and this virus currently has a death rate of 3.4 percent…
“Globally, about 3.4 percent of reported COVID-19 cases have died,” said WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus at a press briefing Tuesday. The rate describes the proportion of deaths among confirmed cases. And it was greater than the previous coronavirus CFR estimate (2 percent in China), far higher than the seasonal flu (which kills 0.1 percent of those infected on average), and even worse than the Spanish flu pandemic (which killed 2 to 3 percent of those infected).
Last century, the Spanish Flu pandemic killed somewhere between 50 million and 100 million people, and this virus currently has an even higher death rate.
Are you starting to understand?
This outbreak has the potential to kill millions upon millions of people, and anyone that is not taking it seriously is not being very wise at all.

Remembering The Alamo

March 6 , marks the anniversary of the fall of the Alamo outside of San Antonio , Texas , back in 1836 .
This event is so significant in my mind that I always try to devote a column that honors the heroism of these men on or around the anniversary of the occasion .
For 13 days , 189 brave and determined patriots withstood Santa Anna ’ s seasoned army of over 4,000 troops .
To a man , the defenders of that mission fort knew that they would never leave those ramparts alive .
They had several opportunities @ @ @ @ @ @ @ chose to fight and die .
How foolish they must look to this generation of spoiled Americans .
It is difficult to recall that lionhearted men such as Davy Crockett ( a nationally renowned frontiersman and former U.S. congressman ) , Will Travis ( only 26 years old with two small children at home ) , Jim Bowie ( a wealthy landowner with properties on both sides of the Rio Grande ) and Almaron Dickinson ( a 36-year-old blacksmith and artillery captain who was one of the very last men to die at @ @ @ @ @ @ @ daughter were two of only three Alamo survivors ) really existed .
These were real men with real dreams and real desires .
Real blood flowed through their veins .
They loved their families and enjoyed life as much as any of us do .
However , there was something different about them .
They possessed a commitment to liberty that transcended personal safety and comfort .
Freedom is an easy word to say , but it is a hard word to live up to .
Freedom involves much more than financial gain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ her constant and unattractive companion , Responsibility .
Neither is she an only child .
Courage and Honesty are her sisters .

March 6, marks the anniversary of the fall of the Alamo outside of San Antonio, Texas, back in 1836. This event is so significant in my mind that I always try to devote a column that honors the heroism of these men on or around the anniversary of the occasion.
For 13 days, 189 brave and determined patriots withstood Santa Anna’s seasoned army of over 4,000 troops. To a man, the defenders of that mission fort knew that they would never leave those ramparts alive. They had several opportunities to leave and live. Yet they chose to fight and die. How foolish they must look to this generation of spoiled Americans.
It is difficult to recall that lionhearted men such as Davy Crockett (a nationally renowned frontiersman and former U.S. congressman), Will Travis (only 26 years old with two small children at home), Jim Bowie (a wealthy landowner with properties on both sides of the Rio Grande) and Almaron Dickinson (a 36-year-old blacksmith and artillery captain who was one of the very last men to die at the Alamo and whose young wife and daughter were two of only three Alamo survivors) really existed. These were real men with real dreams and real desires. Real blood flowed through their veins. They loved their families and enjoyed life as much as any of us do. However, there was something different about them. They possessed a commitment to liberty that transcended personal safety and comfort.
Freedom is an easy word to say, but it is a hard word to live up to. Freedom involves much more than financial gain or personal pleasure. Accompanying Freedom is her constant and unattractive companion, Responsibility. Neither is she an only child. Courage and Honesty are her sisters. They are inseparable: Destroy one, and all will die.
Early in the siege, Travis wrote these words to the people of Texas:
“Fellow Citizens & Compatriots: I am besieged by a thousand or more of the Mexicans under Santa Anna. . . . The enemy has demanded a surrender at discretion, otherwise, the garrison are to be put to the sword. . . . I have answered the demand with a cannon shot & our flag still waves proudly from the walls. I shall never surrender or retreat. . . . VICTORY OR DEATH! P.S. The Lord is on our side.”
As you read those words, remember that Travis and the others did not have the National Education Association (NEA) telling them how intolerant and narrow-minded their notions of honor and patriotism were. They didn’t have the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) telling them they were a hate group. A hostile media did not constantly castigate them as a bunch of wild-eyed extremists. As schoolchildren, they were not taught that their forefathers were nothing more than racist jerks. The TSA didn’t have them on a terrorist watch list. Neither did they have 501c3 pastors constantly filling their hearts and minds with this imbecilic “obey-the-government-no-matter-what” misinterpretation of Romans chapter 13.
The brave men at the Alamo labored under the belief that America (and Texas) really was “the land of the free and the home of the brave.” They believed in God and that their cause was just. They also believed that the freedom of future generations depended on their courage and resolve. They further believed their posterity would remember their sacrifice as an act of love and devotion. It all looks pale now.
By today’s standards, the gallant men of the Alamo appear rather foolish. After all, they had no chance of winning—none. Yet the call for pragmatism and compromise never sounded. Instead, they answered the clarion call, “Victory or death!”
Try to remember the heroes of the Alamo as you watch Republicans and Democrats in Washington, D.C., create a more draconian Police State than Santa Anna could have even dreamed of creating.
One thing is certain: Those courageous champions at the Alamo did not fight and die for a political party or for some “lesser of two evils” mantra. They fought and died for a cause—and that cause was liberty and independence.
Those 189 defenders of the Alamo joined the ranks of the world’s greatest freedom fighters: patriots such as the 70 Minutemen (most of whom were congregants in Pastor Jonas Clark’s Church of Lexington) who stood against 800 British troops in the pre-dawn hours of April 19, 1775, at Lexington Green and the hundreds more who joined them at the Concord Bridge a few hours later.
I’m also talking about men such as the great freedom fighter, William Wallace, and his band of 7,000 stouthearted Scots who stood against a force of 18,000 well-trained British soldiers at the Battle of Stirling Bridge on September 11, 1297—and again on July 22, 1298, when Wallace and 5,000 Scots went up against an English force of over 15,000 soldiers at the Battle of Falkirk.
And let’s not forget the single greatest example of men who chose to fight for liberty against the greatest of odds: The 300 Spartans who squared off against more than 100,000 Persians at the Battle of Thermopylae in August or September of 480 B.C.
These stories—and hundreds like them—are the heritage of free men everywhere. And the willingness to stand against overwhelming odds for the cause of liberty is certainly America’s heritage.
At the same time, it is extremely important to note that the Alamo defenders (and the rest of the honorable men mentioned above) did NOT act as a mob. These men acted in accordance with the Natural Laws of God, and thus their resistance was just and righteous.
I heard a pastor recently say, “I can find no justification in the Scriptures for America’s War for Independence.” I hope many of his congregants found no justification for staying under his spiritual leadership after hearing that egregiously erroneous exposition.
The only reason a pastor could say such a thing is because he has totally ignored numerous Biblical references and is totally ignorant of Biblical Natural Law. Either that or he is a desperately deceived monarchical statist. Sadly, I would guess that a huge percentage of America’s pastors today actually share this misguided pastor’s sentiment. (Why don’t you ask YOUR pastor what HE thinks this Sunday?)
The heroes of the Alamo, as well as the heroes of America’s fight for independence, acted bravely and in good conscience under the moral laws of God and the just laws of Nature.
In the Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson wrote,
“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.—Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.”
John Locke (The Father of America’s Founding Fathers) said,
“If a long train of abuses, prevarications and artifices, all tending the same way, make the design visible to the people, and they cannot but feel what they lie under, and see whither they are going; it is not to be wondered, that they should then rouze themselves, and endeavour to put the rule into such hands which may secure to them the ends for which government was at first erected.”
Locke continued:
“Whosoever uses force without right, as every one does in society, who does it without law, puts himself into a state of war with those against whom he so uses it; and in that state all former ties are cancelled, all other rights cease, and every one has a right to defend himself, and to resist the aggressor.”
In line with the law of conscience, for those who advance that civil society’s rules must be abandoned and armed resistance taken (thus putting society in a state of war), there is a standard of proof that must be met, so as to convince The People that the actions taken outside the rules of established law are justified. This is what our founders did when they penned a Declaration of Independence. The founders of the Republic of Texas did likewise.
We have included the Declaration of the People of Texas and the Texas Declaration of Independence in the huge compilation of America’s great historical documents called THE FREEDOM DOCUMENTS.
This is why it is absolutely obligatory that people are thoroughly informed and educated regarding Natural Law—including the divine principles regarding lawful resistance to government.
America’s founders were well versed in Natural Law. Their resistance to and separation from Great Britain—as well as the form of government that they created in the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights—were rightly predicated upon “the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God.” (Declaration)
Plus, it is essential that America’s clergymen immediately familiarize themselves with the Natural Laws of our Creator and quickly begin teaching these principles to their congregations. As with our Founding Fathers, most New England pastors of Colonial America were well versed when it came to the understanding of Natural Law.
As late as the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, Bible scholars such as Matthew Henry, John Gill, Albert Barnes, Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, et al. frequently quoted the great Natural Law philosophers such as Hugo Grotius, John Locke, Charles Montesquieu, et al. in their Bible commentaries.
Sadly, Natural Law has not been taught in America’s churches for over one hundred years—at least to any significant degree. The vast majority of pastors are totally ignorant of Natural Law. As a result, the people of this country have lost all cognizance of the integral relationship between Natural Law and a free society.
For this reason, I have produced a Natural Law, Liberty & Government Package, containing 9 messages on 5 DVDs at a huge discount. This package includes:
*The Biblical Standard For Government—DVD message *Natural Law And Liberty—DVD containing 5 messages: –Biblical Evidence For Natural Law –Christ’s Law Of The Sword –The Law Of Necessity –Liberty In Law –The Importance Of Natural Law *The Bible And The Bill Of Rights—DVD message *“Called Unto Liberty”—DVD message *Sin, Crime, Government & God—DVD message
Again, the Natural Law, Liberty & Government Package contains 9 messages on 5 DVDs at a huge discount. I urge people—especially Christian people—to get this package for themselves and for their fellow church members and pastors. A rebirth of knowledge of the Biblical Natural Law principles of liberty in our pulpits and churches could bring about a rebirth of freedom in our country.
I also urge readers to order The Israel Package-Set Three. In the first message of this series, I illustrate the understanding of Natural and Revealed Law (the Holy Scriptures) as taught by the above-mentioned Biblical scholars.
Furthermore, our State legislators, governors, attorney generals, judges, sheriffs, etc., must not only become familiar with the Natural Law principles of liberty but also come to a comprehension and conviction of their responsibility and authority to use their office within State government to galvanize the Body Politic, “We The People,” in the defense of liberty.
The Alamo defenders, America’s Founding Fathers, William Wallace and his band of Scots and King Leonidas and his brave Spartans all acted in accordance with the Natural Law principles stated above. They did NOT engage in armed resistance as individuals or as a mob but under the Natural Law authority of man’s Creator.
I hope you remember the sacrifice of the brave men of the Alamo tomorrow. I pray we never forget.
