Dear Public Officials and Other Interested Parties,
Invidious discrimination, bigotry, and civil oppression of any type should be intolerable! The unlawful banishment of American Citizens, under the pretext of public safety is unconstitutional!
In America, freedom from physical restraint is recognized by “The People” as the “Heartbeat of Liberty,” protected by the United States Constitution and based in the Due Process Clause of our Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment. Why then, does the State of Texas continue to undermine the Federal Constitution, while operating under Color of Law, constructively yet invidiously discriminately against American Citizens, particularly those of us now considered sexually dangerous, i.e. predatory? {This by the way is Legal Fiction.} The State of Texas and its Legislators continue to show callous disregard for both our Liberty and Property Interests, as well as traditional principles of a democratic society. Family’s Lives are being torn apart, as men like myself are illegally subjected to secondary prison sentences -via- Involuntary Civil Commitment Sanctions, misleadingly described as Preventive Medicine, in the form of “Preventive [In]Justice” being allegedly used to ensure public safety, contrary to the actual statistics.
Are such grossly excessive Civil Penalties such as Banishment, Defamation, Civil Death, and Forfeiture of Civil Rights, to be considered reasonable, as well as being necessary and proper? If said penalties, in fact serve a Legitimate Governmental Interest, then why are 30 States out of 50 disengaged from this inhumane practice, against their undesirable residents?
The United States Constitution created a national right to be Free from Enslavement, as well as Badges of Shame, Dishonor, and Indicia, associated with this unnaturally cruel disservice to mankind. In this situation, Involuntary Civil Commitment in the State of Texas, said is comparable to the relationship between Texas and the African Slaves of yore, who were, in fact, still being held captive, a full two years, after the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863.
The State of Texas has discretely legislated vestiges of this inhumane practice, via Involuntary Servitude, based on commitment, by making provisions for ongoing Deprivation of Freedom and Imposition of Civil Oppression, based on Invidious Discrimination.

The Law of Nations prohibits Banishment and other Inhumane Treatment of Mentally Disordered Persons, so how then does our state “sue” us, in order to create civil forfeiture, of our constitutional rights, based on antecedent crimes (prior convictions) and the possibility of what “might happen”, at some future date? Isn’t this fortune-telling on the part of the State of Texas?
The State of Texas is using its “failed” experimental civil commitment project, as a sham mechanism, for retribution and illegal banishment. Acting ultra vires, in order to disparage and deny the rights of those deemed sexually dangerous/predatory, and thereby abusing the Tenth Amendment of the Federal Constitution, in order to override the Ninth Amendment thereby, creating RETRO-TEX-FACTO LAW, a De-Facto Private Penal Code, that serves only the Interests of the State. Allowing punishment to be inflicted, “unchecked”, against alleged sexually violent persons, while unofficially relegating us to the status of Second-Class Citizens, and operating under Color and Law and behind the Colors of Justice- UNCONSCIONABLY!!
Take a good look around America today. Take a good look at the structure of our legal system and governance, to see how *Authoritarian* and *Orwellian* our country has become over the past 50 years. Civil Liberties have been and are now being sacrificed for piecemeal freedoms. Big Government is now in vogue and thereby increases the enumerations of restrictive statutes, allowing states to override the Ninth Amendment of our National Constitution with impunity, thereby encroaching upon and disparaging the Rights of All American Citizens.
Sovereignty is a way of being, an attitude and a deep knowing that you have your full rights “sui juris.” It states that you are responsible for everything that is happening in your life and that you are in charge of your own destiny! As a sovereign man you can be self-reliant, self-regulating, needing no outside governance to tell you what to do. The sovereign man aims for complete self autonomy and self-mastery, knowing that if he cannot control himself, there are forces eager to step right in and control him. Your knowledge of the Law and your Rights are most essential to maintain your Full Liberty. “Freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.” – (Martin Luther King, Ir.) Having a Sovereign mindset, is your demand for Liberty!
Constitutional Law – Guaranty of Liberty – What is included.
1.) The liberty guaranteed by the 14th Amendment to the Federal Constitution denotes not merely freedom from bodily restraint, but also the right of the individual to contract, to engage in any of the common occupations of life, to acquire useful knowledge, to marry, establish a home and bring up children, to Worship God- (According to the dictates of your own conscience), and generally to enjoy those privileges long recognized at common law, as essential to the orderly pursuit of happiness by free men.

Constitutional law – Interference with Liberty – Protection of Public Interests.
2.) The liberty protected by the 14th Amendment to the Federal Constitution may not be interfered with, under the guise of protecting the public interests, by legislative action which is arbitrary or without reasonable relation to some purpose within the competency of the state to effect. [For other cases, see Constitutional Law, IV. B, 3, in digest Sup. Ct. 1908]
Those who are Civilly Committed should read the following Texas Rules:
TEXAS RULES OF CIVIL PROCEDURE- G. G. FINDINGS BY COURT
- 296. Requests for Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law.
- 297. Time to File Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law.
- 298. Additional or Amended Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law.
- 299. Omitted Findings.
Don’t let the TCCO Contracted Clinical Examiners just roll you over, and don’t let your Committing Court to just Cite some Legal-Hogwash, to keep you in captivity for 2 more years. Make then PAY! Make them EXPLAIN! Let them know you will not go quietly into the night. Laws aren’t enough, we must change hearts and mindsets of all citizens.
Just remember, that whenever any form of government, -: (In our case, the TEXAS CIVIL COMMITMENT OFFICE and the Creatures of the State like MTC), becomes Destructive to Liberty and Justice for All, it is the Right of the People to Alter or to Abolish it. America, our 4th, 5th, 6th, 8th, 13th and 14th Amendment Rights are at Risk! {Another Slippery Slope based on Hogwash!)
There can be no acceptable deviance from the principles, spirit and doctrines of these rights. We cannot allow Greed, Organized Evil and Corruption in Today’s Law Enforcement Fueled Entities, and in the Prosecutors’ Offices to jeopardize what many Americans fought and died for, believing in what they were fighting for in this country and the United States thereof. We have to stop the SCFO Attorney’s, that want to find -“work-a-rounds”-, around the 6th amendment, and State Bar and Texas Lawyer’s Creed Requirements upon them.
We all share the same proud title: Citizen. So start acting like it, and show them that even though your Government may not love you, that you still love this country! Remember, it is the Duty of a Patriot, to Protect this Country from its Government, whenever required.
