Notice how he said YOU?
Thomas Jefferson
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
YOU
must be
VIGILANT
We must actively
participate in
government
to ensure it
stays in line.
So what did the Founders do
when they were being oppressed
by a tyrannical government?
THEY ORGANIZED!
They gathered to discuss their issues
with the crown...
They petitioned King George
for 11 years.
Receiving no answers to their
petitions, the morale of the
colonists grew more uneasy.
They became
increasingly
FRUSTRATED!
Their “repeated Petitions…
(were) answered only by
repeated injury.“
-Declaration of Independence
The colonists continued
to organize.
Threw a few parties.

www.GiveMeLiberty.org
The original
Continental
Congress
resulted
in the creation
of the
Declaration of
Independence.
3/5 of the Declaration of
Independence comprises of
GRIEVANCES.
Many of which apply to our
situation today.
HISTORY IS REPEATING!
WHO IS MAD
AT THE
GOVERNMENT?
Don’t blame
the government.
It is OUR responsibility!
Our Founding Fathers
REPEATEDLY
WARNED US about
the EVIL nature of
government!
Don’t blame the bankers.
Don’t blame the media.
Don’t blame the politicians.
Don’t blame anyone
… except…
the American people.
The American people
allowed this to happen.
It is our responsibility.
THEREFORE, it is
OUR FAULT!
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
How much longer will
we allow governmental
abuse of power?
It is your RIGHT to
correct these abuses.
What if I told you
it is your DUTY?
DUTY
Declaration of Independence
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
The Founders put their lives on the line to give us
the most inspired and just form of government the
world has ever known.
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
They put their lives on the line!
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
We must not allow
their risk and
sacrifice to go
in vain.
You need to
live up to
YOUR DUTY!
A republic
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“…and to the REPUBLIC
for which it stands...”

Democracy: Two wolves and one
sheep voting on what is for dinner.
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
Today we find ourselves in a similar
situation as the Founders.
We do have a few advantages
over our Founding Fathers.
We have better technology.
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
We also have a few documents
the Founders didn’t have.
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
These documents put into
writing and into law our
unalienable rights.
UNALIENABLE (adj.) - incapable of being,
repudiated, alienated, surrendered, or
transferred to another.
These documents also
established a system of
checks and balances:
• Legislative Branch
• Executive Branch
• Judicial Branch
The scale is unbalanced.
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
It is OUR DUTY to balance these scales.
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
Too many Americans
have relinquished
their civic duties.
So what do we do?
We must get
active
civil
lives.
That is the ONLY WAY we will
RESTORE OUR REPUBLIC
to a Constitutional form.
"All that is necessary for the
triumph of evil is that good
men do nothing."

Is there anything or anyone
above the law in our country?
~The Jury~
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“The jury has the right to determine
both the law and the facts.”
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“The jury has the power to bring
a verdict in the teeth of both
law and fact.”
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“The law itself is on trial quite
as much as the cause which
is to be decided.”
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
Jury Nullification is the right and
duty of all jurors to judge the law.
BAD LAW = NOT GUILTY
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
"I consider trial by jury as the only
anchor yet imagined by man,
by which a government can be held
to the principles of its constitution."
-Thomas Jefferson
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
The Grand Jury is the most
powerful force in our country.
The Grand Jury hears evidence
presented by the prosecutor
and decides if there exists
reasonable suspicion and
probable cause for the
trial to continue.
The Grand Jury can indict anyone,
even the President!
In most jurisdictions, the use
of a Grand Jury has been
abolished and replaced with
preliminary hearings
decided by a Judge.
The Sheriff used to call the
Grand Jury.

Constitutional answer.

The SECOND Amendment
Is NOT about hunting!
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
The SECOND Amendment
protects the FIRST.
The government is supposed to be
scared of the people.
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“When governments
fear the people,
there is liberty.
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“The strongest reason for the
people to retain the right to
keep and bear arms is,
as a last resort, to protect
themselves against
tyranny in government.”
– Thomas Jefferson
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“The best we can hope for
concerning the people at large
is that they be properly armed.”
– Alexander Hamilton
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“The beauty of the 2nd Amendment
is that it will not be needed
until they try to take it.”
– Thomas Jefferson
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
“We should not forget that the
spark which ignited the American
Revolution was caused by the
British attempt to confiscate
the firearms of the colonists.”
– Patrick Henry
www.GiveMeLiberty.org
The 1st Amendment
• Freedom of religion
• Freedom of speech
• Freedom of press
• Freedom to peaceably assemble

Section 61, Magna Carta
“If we, our chief justice, our officials, or any of our servants offend in any respect
against any man, or transgress any of the articles of the peace or of this security,
and the offence is made known to four of the said twenty-five barons, they shall
come to us - or in our absence from the kingdom to the chief justice - to declare it
and claim immediate redress.
If we, or in our absence abroad the chief justice, make no redress within
forty days, reckoning from the day on which the offence was declared to us or to
him, the four barons shall refer the matter to the rest of the twenty-five barons,
who may distrain upon and assail us in every way possible, with the support of the
whole community of the land, by seizing our castles, lands, possessions, or
anything else saving only our own person and those of the queen and our
children, until they have secured such redress as they have determined upon.
Having secured the redress, they may then resume their normal
obedience to us.”

We are the rightful
owners of our
government.

The downfall of the
USA and the situation
we find ourselves in
today, can be traced
back to the Federal
Reserve Act of 1913.
REMEMBER:
Our Founding Fathers
Petitioned for 11 years
prior to calling the
First Continental Congress.
We The People Foundation for
Constitutional Education
have been researching,
filing, recording and
documenting their
Petitions to our
servant government
for 10 years.
We are
building a
legal case
with a long
history of standing.
Just as our
Founders did!

“One thing people who are dollar-based need to
look at is the Amero. That is the one thing that
nobody is talking about, that is going to have a
big impact on everyone in Canada, US and
Mexico. The Amero is the proposed new currency
for the North American community which is
being developed right now between Canada,
US and Mexico, to make a borderless community
much like the E.U. and the Dollar (Canada/US)
and Peso will be replaced by the Amero.”
