TOP QUESTIONS TO ASK AN FBI AGENT
Are you a "Special Agent" ?
Are there any "General Agents" in the FBI?
When you tell me you are a "Special Agent," are you telling me that you have only specific, limited authority, and that I am responsible for finding out what the limits to your authority are? Am I responsible for making sure you stay within the limits of your authority, even if you are unaware of what those limits are? Please show me documentation of your authority. Is it true that the authority of an FBI agent is the same as the authority of a Park Ranger?
Did you swear an "Oath of Office" ?
Please show me a copy of it. If you violate your Oath of Office, what are the consequences to you? How are those consequences enforced? Do I have to complain to your superiors, or sue you, or what? What is the name of your superior? What is your badge number? Are you authorized to use an alias? How can I serve process on you if I don't know your real name?
When you took office, did you file a bond? Is there any liability insurance to cover damage that you cause while on duty?
Please show me a copy of the insurance policy.
Are you here on campus as an "invitee" or as a "licensee" ? How does that affect the liability of the Trustees if you are injured while here? How does that affect the liability of the Trustees if you cause damage? Which program are you here under: Applicant, Civil Rights, Counterterrorism, Financial Crime, Foreign Counterintelligence, Organized Crime/Drug, or Violent Crimes and Major Offenders?
Is it true that if you arrest me, and I sue you for false arrest (also false imprisonment, assault, battery, and kidnapping), the only thing I need to prove is that an arrest occurred, and then the burden is on you to show that it wasn't false? Would I sue you in State or Federal court? Why? Is it true that "imprisonment" includes "restraining me of my liberty by words and acts which I fear to disregard" ? Is it true that you can conduct a warrantless arrest only if you witness a felony or a breach of the peace, the same as any citizen? Please show me documentation of any other powers of arrest.
What is the Constitutional authority for the FBI to exist? Is it true that the "police power" means the power to protect the health, safety, morals, and welfare of the public? Is it true that the police powers are reserved to the States under the 10th Amendment? How can you call yourself "law enforcement" if you're not exercising the police power? Is it true that the only Federal crimes (under Article I of the Constitution) are counterfeiting, piracy and treason? If you're not exercising police powers, and you're not a standing army, then what are you?
Is it true that Congress technically ceased to exist during the Civil War, by adjourning "sine die" ("without day")? Is this the reason that Congress has not used the Constitutionally mandated procedure for admitting any States to the Union since 1859?
Is this the reason Senators and Representatives are not actually sworn in during "swearing-in" ceremonies? Is this the reason the President calls the Congress into session every two years? Why two years? Is it because the salaries of Congress fall under the two-year limit on military appropriations?
Are there geographical limits to your authority? Please show me documentation of those limits. Are you authorized to operate in one of the 10 Federal "Regions" ? What is the Constitutional authority for the Nixon-era creation of those "Regions" ? How can the Federal government create "Regions" if it is forbidden to create States? Was it done through emergency or martial-law powers? Isn't "Region" a military word?
Do you have any reason to believe that any of us are engaging in interstate commerce?
Do you know that any mention of the “interstate commerce clause” in any court, by the Prosecution or the Plaintiff, brings the Constitution into evidence and I am free to use it OR object on the grounds that the Constitution has not been entered into evidence.
Do you know Lon Horiuchi, who shot Vicki Weaver while she was holding a baby in her arms (in the infamous Ruby Ridge incident), all over a shotgun that was a quarter of an inch too short? Do you know the agent who shot 14-year-old Sammy Weaver in the back as he tried to run home?
Did you have any part in the Waco massacre (in which the FBI used CS gas and its flammable propellant, in a surprise attack with no element of surprise)? Isn't CS gas illegal to use in war? Did you help destroy evidence from Waco? Is it true that the U.S. Marshals Service falsely claimed a possible drug problem with the Weavers at Ruby Ridge in order to get military reconnaissance flights over the cabin? (and the "hot spot" from the alleged drug lab turned out to be a doghouse?) And that the bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms invented a phony drug nexus at Waco in order to obtain massive assistance from the U.S. Army, the Texas National Guard, and the Alabama National Guard? Is it true that civilian agencies routinely obtain free military support by lying about drugs, and because there is no sanction for lying, obvious falsehoods are accepted by the military as a pretext for intervention? Is it true that the infamous FBI Hostage Rescue Team has spent considerable time in recent years holding hostages and has not even attempted to rescue a hostage for several years? Why are there 56 FBI SWAT teams and what's that got to do with investigation?
Is it true that almost the entire Waco operation, not only 2/28 but the siege, had been improperly financed from money that law enforcement was supposed to use only in the war on drugs?
Have you had any military training? Are you connected in any way to military intelligence? How come you're not covered by the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which was passed to outlaw the use of federal troops for civilian law enforcement and which made it a felony to willfully use "any part of the Army . . . to execute the laws" ?
Is it true that during the 1930s J. Edgar Hoover, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, falsely told the American people that an unprecedented wave of child kidnappings was in progress, and the FBI was rewarded with substantial attention and funding, and in the 1980s a very different FBI earned itself more funding by putting out phony claims about a wave of serial killers of children?
Is it really a federal crime to transport artificial teeth into a state without the approval of a local licensed dentist, with penalty of up to one year in prison? Is this the sort of thing we pay the FBI to investigate?
Is it true that the federal courts have virtually taken over such vital state functions as the operation of prisons and mental hospitals? And that by 1993, the federal courts operated 80 percent of all state prison systems in America? Is it true that federal judges determine virtually every detail of these prisons, including standards for food and clothing, grievance procedures, and cell space per convict? Is it true that these prisons are run by private corporations for profit?
TOP THINGS THE BANKS DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW
Did you know that the FDIC doesn't really insure bank accounts?
Did you know that when a bank goes under and is taken over by the FDIC, instead of paying the $100,000, the FDIC just pays its own people to come into the bank and divvy up what's left of the bank's assets? (This comes from a woman who once worked as a temp for the FDIC. Her job was to talk on the phone to the angry depositors and explain this to them.)
Did you know that a bank cannot legally require a fingerprint as a condition of cashing a check?
According to UCC 3-501(b)(2), they can only require you to:
Exhibit the instrument (i.e. you show them the check)
Give reasonable identification, and evidence of your authority if you are cashing the check on behalf of someone else
Sign the check, and make a written receipt for partial payment, or the surrender of the check upon full payment (i.e. you let them keep the check)
They write the brochures to say that they "ask" for a fingerprint (not "demand" as a condition of payment). Their excuse for the fingerprint is "reasonable identification." So if you can get them to agree that your picture ID is reasonable identification, they have NO LAWFUL EXCUSE for refusing to pay the check just because you don't give them a fingerprint! In this case they have "dishonored" the check and you can proceed exactly as you would if they blatantly, and for no reason, refused to pay. Contact us for ideas on how to use the fingerprint issue.
Did you know that if you write “Without Recourse” below your endorsement or signature that the bank can not take any action against you for any reason!
Did you know that banks do not loan their own assets, nor the assets of their depositors?
Do you realize this means they do NOT loan money, but instead, there is an exchange of credit for credit, in which interest is charged on one side, but not the other?
If the borrower walks away with cash (which has value in the form of "purchasing power"), but the bank didn't loan any of its assets, isn't it obvious that the "purchasing power" must have come from SOMEWHERE?
Did you know that when a bank makes a "loan," the money supply (M1) expands -- in other words, the volume of currency in circulation increases?
Did you know that the value of the Federal Reserve Note "dollar" depends on the size of the money supply via the law of "supply and demand" -- in other words, the more FRNs there are, the less they are worth?
Do you understand that when the bank makes a loan, the value of the FRN "dollar bills" in everybody's pocket declines -- in other words, the bank is creating FRN dollars in competition with the FRN "dollars" in your pocket, and this reduces the value of the FRN "dollars" in your pocket? Do you realize this is the cause of inflation?
Do you realize that this means the "value," or "purchasing power," loaned by the bank is essentially STOLEN from the public via the mechanism of inflation? Contact us for ideas on how to use the "Theft by Inflation" issue

Marie
Marie came to me because I always have been vigilant and seen how bullies tear their victims apart sometimes. It hurts to see, and I never understood how it goes on so often. As a child, other kids were mean to me, but nothing serious. Marie's abuse is not shown in the story, but it is a higher level of abuse than I never hope any child should have to go through.
Marie stands and watches the other children play. Legs kicking swings higher into the air, bright smiles and laughter. A single leaf drifts slowly down and distant thunder is heard in the distance. She fades away.
Clouds of dust mark the school bus's arrival. Eleice runs to the door, full of questions about Marie's school day. Big sisters try to protect. Big sisters try to be role models. Big sisters turn a blind eye to abuse.
"Did you have a good day, Marie?"
Stooped down to eye level, Eleice tries on her kindest big sister smile. Marie turns her back, silently trods down the dark hallway. The beatings continue. Her spirit is turning gray. She cries, hungry, and no one comes to comfort her. She rubs her bruised skin, an old habit, and tries to escape into the night.
Days pass, seasons pass, but life stays the same. She is tired now, tries to stand up straight but can't anymore. Fragments of memory flit through her mind like wild butterflies. She sees the hand, not the face, coming down again. Hears the harsh words. She squeezes her eyes shut tighter. It never ends. At school she hears them talk.
"She's so different."
"I hate her."
"Why don't you smile, Marieeee?"
Syllables drawn out into a nasty mockery. She cannot explain or voice the pain inside, and if they could see it, they would scream.
Home is not home but a place she is dragged back to, needs for survival. Years pass and she is older now, boys are attracted to her. They make things worse. It is the same hand, the same voice, but different people wield it against her, even though by now she has learned that the past is the past. Sitting in a room with a brightly painted cartoon dog on the wall, they peer at her like a specimen. They write notes. It's all a game to them. Questions, so many questions, until she puts her head in her arms and curls into a tight ball. They whisper about her now, she can hear the mock pity in their voices, the scritch-scratch of pens on paper, writing more observations. Then the doors open and she is free until next Saturday. Eleice doesn't smile at her now, she looks down with what looks like pity. She whispers about Marie, too, when she thinks she isn't listening.
One day it is too much. She is too tired and knows what lies ahead. She knows. Wearily yet determined she pulls the noose tight around her neck. Bends her head in a last wish, and goes.
They whisper still, yet not as much as before.
"She was troubled."
"She didn't want to live."
Marie still listens, although lacking her sight, it is still the same to her. It's how life was before. The tunnels are dark, so dark, and she calls it home. She is free like the wind, the birds sing their greetings to her, the moon is her night light. She smiles, finally, and fades away.
