===WE HAVE THE POWER===
Officers A.J. Seitz and Mike Lewis Puyallup Police Department, WA.

Mike writes:<br>
When A.J. and I first informed people that we were going to start writing an article on the U. S. Constitution,
we received mixed responses. Some of our fellow officers were sharpening their pencils preparing to write a
rebuttal until they saw the piece (no, not A.J.'s HK-91. I'm talking about the article.) The article was
primarily written as an opening statement just to get the ball rolling and hopefully make people probe into their
beliefs and ideals.

Several comments were made as to whether we wore white hoods when we wrote the article. We neither
support nor condone the activities of the K.K.K. or any other similar organization. What we do believe in is
the U. S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights. This is something that every officer has sworn to protect and
serve. Yet, it's amazing the number of people, officers included, that really don't know what the Bill of Rights
contain and where it is applicable in the field of Law Enforcement. How many of you can recite the first,
second, fourth, fifth, sixth and the eighth amendment if asked by a citizen? These listed are primarily used in
our profession. Of course, we all have some idea that freedom of speech, religion and search and seizure are in
there somewhere, but most are not exactly sure what else is in there. We all know that the Constitution and Bill
of Rights supersedes all other laws. It gives the people the right to govern themselves as they see fit. It was
our founding fathers' goal to not have a totalitarian state such as England. How many of us have been
dismayed over the passage of a new law, with the knowledge that the act would not be practical on the street,
or just does not sound quite legal? All we do is bitch or enforce it unquestionable. It goes no further than that.
We as a people (especially police officers) have a great amount of power. Let's begin to use it! We want you
only to have an open mind, which for some will be tough, I know. Do something for yourself. LIFE
MAGAZINE has a special Fall edition solely based on the Bill of Rights. Take one home (Well, pay for it
first!) and read it. You'd be surprised at what you find. Plus it will be great for your kids' future history papers.
All we ask is that you search your own soul and question yourself if you are upholding the people's right, or
are you upholding the Federal and State Legislative wishes.

A. J. writes:<br>
As Officer Lewis said above, some people, including officers, feel that when a person uses the Bill of Rights as
supportive material to an argument on a social issue, then the person must be a radical. Perhaps if you
are pro-government control, I guess you're right. However, were our founding fathers radicals against the
English government when they were fighting for our freedom? Since we are discussing the right of the
people to govern themselves, fellow officers label us "right wing extremists".

This brings us top the First Amendment in the Bill of Rights: "Congress shall make no law respecting an
establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or the
press, or the right of the people to peaceably assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of
grievances." This has been said to be the cornerstone of all other rights, yet this right seems to be
constantly under attack by politicians who owe allegiance to special interest groups, as in the political
correctness issue.

This has obviously irritated the citizens of this country, which can be seen by the recent election across the
nation, where several special interest politicians were voted out of office, and in our own state where term
limitation nearly passed.

One of the reasons that the government is in this state (excessive taxation, creating tighter government control,
and any of the other topics people complain about) is that the people have little knowledge about the history
of our government. One example is the Sedition law. In 1797, John Adams, a Federalist, beat Thomas
Jefferson, a Republican, by three votes for the presidency. In 1798, Jefferson and Madison opposed an
imminent war with France. The Federalists, who had close ties with the Plutocrats (rule by the wealthy) in
England, passed the sedition law. Bouviers law dictionary defines sedition as "a revolt against legitimate
authority, the raising of commotions and disturbances in the state or advocacy or suggestion by word, act, or
writing of public disorder or resistance to the government". The idea behind sedition is that the government
has the right to protect itself against disgruntled citizens. This sounds great on the surface until you
remember that, as stated in the Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights, and the U.S. Constitution, the
U.S. Government is a government of, for and by the PEOPLE.

The first victim of this law was Matthew Lyons, a member of the Vermont Congress and reporter of a
Vermont newspaper. He accused Adams of setting himself in a position of king of the people. Lyons soon
found himself imprisoned, as did many other politicians, writers, and anyone else who dared suggest they
could govern themselves of speak out against Adams and fellow Federalists. Jefferson labeled the law as
the "Alien Friends Act" and persuaded Kentucky and Virginia to pass resolutions against the law. As the
people of the New Nation began to see their new-found freedoms slip away at the hands of another King
George, they began to rally against Adams, the Federalist and the sedition law. In 1800, Jefferson won
election to the presidency by a landslide and Federalists slowly left, apparently in name only. The citizens
now lived in freedom once again, but only for a short period of time.

In the 1940's, a group called the American Firsters began to oppose President Roosevelt, the New Deal, the
government ties with the Soviet Union, and in particular, going to war with Germany. The FDR administration,
with help from a reporter from the Washington Post, entrapped 28 people. Using an alias, the reporter ordered
books, pamphlets, etc. and had them sent to Washington D.C.. The 28 defendants were indicted, arrested
and taken to Washing D.C. on sedition charges. After four years Chief Justice Laws states, "This is a
travesty upon justice, ... case dismissed." Although the government did not win the case, they did succeed in
ruining the defendants financially and in scaring anyone else who would oppose the current administration.
On Feb. 16, 1988 at Fort Smith, Arkansas, the government again indicted 14 individuals on sedition charges.
After 110 witnesses for the state, 1200 pieces of visual evidence, and 8 weeks of trial, all defendants were
found innocent.

The other tool the federal government uses is "conspiracy to commit RICCO". The only evidence required
is for someone to say that they discussed a commission of a crime with another, just like in Orwell novel,
"1984". Interesting! Just think, you can be imprisoned for thought crimes. This is not new. It's been developing
since the country started. If certain professional politicians had their way, they would control everything.
Another example is the media. We're not saying that we support either of these professionals, but look at the
difference in standards. During the Louisiana governor's race, established professional politicians, with a lot of
help from mass media, succeeded in lambasting David Duke's campaign and yet the same media censored
Gary Trudeau's editorial cartoon depicting allegations of Dan Quayle and a DEA file. Nothing obscene or
disgusting, but an issue that the people deserve to hear. What happened to unbiased news???

We realize these things are far removed from the issues we deal with on the street, but you have to stop and
think. If the federal government tries to make these terror tactics and harassment seem like "the end
justifies the means", it hasto make us justify any tactic we may use to make an arrest (or dare I say "A STAT")
no matter what rights we may bend or break.

Remember, we have the power to protect these rights that were given to us all, even to street cops. Those of you
who have had I.S.'s should know best. Citizens deserve no less protection of their rights that what you got,
or at least what you should have gotten. - End

Editor McLamb continues:<br>
You see, since most Cops are highly patriotic, the truth about what is wrong with America, can spread like
wildfire among the ranks. And officers like A.J. and Mike who are definitely two Police Officers "Against the
New World Order," are starting the fire in the bosom of their fellow officers. I wish to cmmend and thank both
these wonderful young officers for their patriotism and efforts to save our nation. As usual, they are taking a
bit of heat, but that is the price of liberty and true leadership today. As my dear friend Col. Bo Gritz says ... "If
you're over the target, you are going to take flak."

These Officers have since written other articles and are working hard to educate our colleagues in their
state. Think of how many of our fellow Officers they will reach, educate and turn back to serving the
People of our nation. And then how many of the officers A.J. and Mike educate will in turn reach out to touch
other Officers and Guardsmen across their state, and other states. And so it goes and grows. We, who call
ourselves "POLICE AGAINST THE NEW WORLD ORDER" are growing in number as in a geometric
progression. Every patriotic officer whom we can awaken becomes a "force of one" that can have a great
impact on many others, who will then have an impact on others. There are over 4,500 Police and National
Guardsmen on our educational, constitutional Aid & Abet Police Newsletter. We "ENFORCERS" have the
potential of stopping this treasonous Global Government scam very quickly. Remember,
"IF OFFICERS DON'T ENFORCE TREASON, IT WON'T GET ENFORCED"?

This editor is humbled by the love and devotion to "We The People" of the many federal, state and local
officers and Guardsmen with whom I am in communication across America. I am fortunate to be able
to work and communicate daily with our nation's greatest assests - its Patriots. -End
