cmoljoe, the only reason they have this power is because we gave it to them, or in other words, we believe in manmade-imaginary-laws.
You give them power when you contract with them, not when you believe in manmade-imaginary-unreal-abstract-intangible laws. They have the power simply because people believe that U.S. Citizen, or citizen period is a term to describe free, independent people, but in fact it is just a political status that is presumed from adhesion contracts, so if you get a Social Security, or a Birth Certificate, you are tied to the Political Status of Citizen, or servant for the federal government. You can be a Texas Citizen and that will mean that you are a servant for the Nation of Texas.
Natural law doesn't exist. Natural law is as existent as prophesying that unicorns exist.
There exist many laws, calling them imaginary doesn't make them not laws. There exist many systems of laws, calling them intangible doesn't make them NOT laws. There exist many jurisdictions and they are all there to fulfill a special function.
The fake spells on papers, people in fancy clothes called "uniforms" and imaginary lines called "bordors", don't really apply to us and it's about time we as the human race put our differences a side, stand together and tear this system down.
You cannot tear down what you didn't create and it isn't yours. Find out who owns the patent to grants, trusts, maritime law, and everything you think doesn't apply to us but don't understand why and how, and see if it's yours to tear down or if you have that kind of jurisdiction or authority, it would be akin to patenting an invention and then saying "we must take the patent down! it doesn't apply to us" but you have no such authority, just like saying "this person wrote this awful book, this person invented this awful game, this person created this system of law" (person in the common use of the word as an unincorporated, free, sovereign individual, not to a Corporate Entity)
And the essence of it is starring one in the face, what need do you have to tear down what is wholly imaginary and not even your own creation? Should you undertake such futility? or simply not deal with the imaginary or treat it as anything other than imaginary, and in other words, how would you tear down a fake spell? Or a true spell? You cannot, and there is no reason to. The best method is simply to be polite, and ask very pointed questions pertaining to clarification on jurisdiction and the roles of everyone there, or simply don't chose to go into or contract with the court or the law enforcement, state your birthright, tell them that you are not a U.S. Citizen, you are a Free Individual, a Sovereign of the land of your birth and you don't accept their offer to contract.
If you clear the jurisdiction and identity confusion that is set forth with U.S. Citizen and the numerous adhesion contracts that they might use and claim "here is proof, you are a U.S. Citizen" then if they do challenge your claim that you are a American State National you simply state "I do not consent to any and all contract that are not in kind, fully disclosed and of mutual benefit to both individuals, and any such agreements are void as I would never willingly agree to subjugate myself to imaginary, fictional entities."
"Natural law" = knowing the true mening about right and wrong, its that simple :-)
