As NOSY NEIGHBOR AND THE GANG use public surveillance to PRETEND I am OWNED/ENSLAVED to this SEXUAL PREDATOR network-----looking much like DOS in upstate NY------TRACK HER------I am bringing REALITY to what is DELUSION-----the illusions of our US 99% WE THE PEOPLE taken to COLONIALISM-----let's look back to what US colonial leaders fighting to make our US a sovereign nation and not a colonial entity were saying and doing.
So, all this PSYCHO-SEXUAL capture of people inside their homes-----all the public surveillance cameras and microphones capturing EVERYONE'S movements and conversations-----not really ALL-AMERICAN.
My problem with NOSY NEIGHBOR AND THE GANG began as a MONEY-MAKER morphed into political prisoner mode these few decades of what I call
MY VOICE AS A US CITIZEN------
This is MARYLAND STATE CONSTITUTION telling me just that.
Article 40
Text of Article 40:
That the liberty of the press ought to be inviolably preserved; that every citizen of the State ought to be allowed to speak, write and publish his sentiments on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of that privilege.
Hmmmmmmm, seems like a FREE MAN OR WOMAN cannot be treated or considered void of that status of CITIZEN WITHOUT DUE PROCESS. So, what is NOSY NEIGHBOR AND THE GANG ---up to?
So, is GROUP SPEAK ----JUST SAY IT------chatter considered 'judgement of peers'? I think here in Baltimore with THE NETWORK saturated public surveillance----thinks that is trial and judgement----but IT IS NOT. This is why I cannot be made a SLAVE as too ALL 99% OF WE THE PEOPLE.
There is no JUDGEMENT BY PEERS happening in GROUP SPEAK-----JUST SAY IT----JUST SAY IT-----JUST SAY IT.
Art. 24.
That no man ought to be taken or imprisoned or disseized of his freehold, liberties or privileges, or outlawed, or exiled, or, in any manner, destroyed, or deprived of his life, liberty or property, but by the judgment of his peers, or by the Law of the land (amended by Chapter 681, Acts of 1977, ratified Nov. 7, 1978).
Maryland Constitution seems to ABHOR MONOPOLIES------yet, our MOVING FORWARD economic goals of US FOREIGN ECONOMIC ZONES are completely filled with global corporate monopolies.
Art. 41. That monopolies are odious, contrary to the spirit of a free government and the principles of commerce, and ought not to be suffered.
Let's remember our FOUNDING FATHERS and leaders who broke with COLONIALISM-----broke with the connections to RULE BY A GLOBAL GOVERNMENT------tyranny of a government NOT DOING ITS JOB.
When we GET RID OF GOVERNMENT-----we are getting rid of the PEOPLE in government----not our 300 years of US sovereign government structures and citizens' rights.
The Declaration of Independence, Civil Disobedience, & Common Sense Essay
Below is an essay on "The Declaration of Independence, Civil Disobedience, & Common Sense" from Anti Essays, your source for research papers, essays, and term paper examples.
The Common Themes
In the “Declaration of Independence”, written by Thomas Jefferson, “Civil Disobedience”, written by Henry David Thoreau, and Common Sense – “Thoughts on the Present State of American Affairs” and “Of the Origin and Design of Government in General, and Design of Government in General, with Concise Remarks on the English Constitution”, written by Thomas Paine, each of the three pieces have one common idea. The idea expressed in each of the authors writing is: government isn’t always what is best for the citizens.
In the “Declaration of Independence” Thomas Jefferson uses a highly affirmative, yet respectful tone. Quotes such as “… a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that within that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation,” and the three truths: “… all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, and among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.” Another right that he states within the declaration is,
“ … -- That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or abolish it, and to institute new Government.”
He is stating that it should be the citizen’s right to institute, change, or even get rid of government when they are not doing their job. That job being: securing the rights of the citizens. He also provided examples to the readers of tyrannical situations and how it effected the lives of citizens negatively, which is why he believes that it is essential for the people to have a say in the government and have their rights. His affirmative tone helps to support his claim and reasoning as to why he believes what he does.
In the next piece, “ Civil Disobedience” Henry David Thoreau has more of a defiant tone to his writing. He believes that the citizens have the right to rebel against the government if they feel that they are falling into a tyrannical situation or if their...

'They work for a totalitarian one-party state'
Fascism is a form of government which is a type of one-party dictatorship. Fascists are against democracy. They work for a totalitarian one-party state.[1] This aim is to prepare the nation for armed conflict, and to respond to economic difficulties.[2] Fascism puts nation and often race above the individual. It stands for a centralized government headed by a dictator.[3] Historically, fascist governments tend to be militaristic, and racist. In the Third Reich, German society was pictured as a racially unified hierarchy, the Volksgemeinschaft.
REAL left social progressives are absolutely the TARGET of any far-right wing fascist totalitarian movement-----ergo, I am being HIT-----being SILENCED----being told I am not a CITIZEN. Keep in mind, when I say -----I AM a victim of NOSY NEIGHBOR AND THE GANG tied to building this extremely repressive DEEP DEEP REALLY DEEP STATE illegal surveillance structure inside our homes and outside in public----my circumstance is not unique---it is being experienced 'silently' by just about all of our US 99% WE THE PEOPLE and new to US immigrant citizens black, white, and brown.
Project MKUltra, also called the CIA mind control program, is the code name given to a program of experiments on human subjects that were designed and undertaken by the United States Central Intelligence Agency—and which were, at times, illegal.[1][2][3] Experiments on humans were intended to identify and develop drugs and procedures to be used in interrogations in order to weaken the individual and force confessions through mind control. The project was organized through the Office of Scientific Intelligence of the CIA and coordinated with the U.S. Army Biological Warfare Laboratories.[4]
The operation was officially sanctioned in 1953, was reduced in scope in 1964, further curtailed in 1967, and recorded to be halted in 1973. The program engaged in many illegal activities,[5][6][7] including the use of U.S. and Canadian citizens as its unwitting test subjects, which led to controversy regarding its legitimacy.[5](p74)[8][9][10] MKUltra used numerous methods to manipulate people's mental states and alter brain functions, including the surreptitious administration of drugs (especially LSD) and other chemicals, hypnosis,[11][12] sensory deprivation, isolation, verbal and sexual abuse, and other forms of torture.[13][14]
The scope of Project MKUltra was broad with research undertaken at 80 institutions, including colleges and universities, hospitals, prisons, and pharmaceutical companies.[15] The CIA operated through these institutions using front organizations, although sometimes top officials at these institutions were aware of the CIA's involvement

What Are Some Examples of Civil Disobedience in U.S. History?
The United States has a long history of civil disobedience, stretching back to the Boston Tea Party and continuing through the Suffrage and Civil Rights movements. While some of the country's most notable acts of civil disobedience have been non-violent occupations, other instances such as anti-war protests have resulted in violent clashes with police and opposition.
Civil disobedience is an option when a person feels that a law is immoral or against her personal conscience. Henry David Thoreau's "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" is one of the main texts about the practice, and states that when a person's conscience and the laws clash, the conscience must win. Thoreau's arrest for refusing to participate in the United States' war with Mexico in 1849 was one example of civil disobedience in the United States, and protests against the Vietnam War and Gulf War utilized many of his tactics.
The Civil Rights movement had many instances of civil disobedience: sit-ins at segregated establishments, marches and boycotts all helped to erode segregation in the South by opposing unjust laws. The development of labor laws and unions also had a number of sit-ins and strikes that were illegal at the time, but advanced the rights of workers and the passage of new legislation.

30 Quotes on Civil Disobedience By Really Famous Leaders
DISOBEDIENCE IS THE TRUE FOUNDATION OF LIBERTY.....THE OBEDIENT MUST BE SLAVES-----HENRY THOREAU.
Civil disobedience is an act of protest against the unjust laws of a government. It is a non-violent way to address the unjust state of affairs. Resisting oppressive regimes through peaceful means is a characteristic feature of civil disobedience. The aim is to bring social change and end the unruly system of the powerful authority.
The Civil Rights Movement in the United States against the racial discrimination of African-Americans and the Indian campaign to end the British regime are some examples of civil disobedience that changed the course of history. These popular movements, led by some of the greatest leaders in history brought a radical change to human life. Following are some quotes on civil disobedience by famous leaders.
"I became convinced that noncooperation with evil is as much a moral obligation as is cooperation with good."

― Martin Luther King Jr.
"You're not supposed to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who says it."
― Malcolm X
"An unjust law is itself a species of violence. Arrest for its breach is more so. Now the law of nonviolence says that violence should be resisted not by counter-violence but by nonviolence. This I do by breaking the law and by peacefully submitting to arrest and imprisonment."
― Mahatma Gandhi
"All men recognize the right of revolution; that is, the right to refuse allegiance to, and to resist, the government, when its tyranny or its inefficiency are great and unendurable."
― Henry David Thoreau
"Civil disobedience has an honorable history, and when the urgency and moral clarity cross a certain threshold, then I think that civil disobedience is quite understandable, and it has a role to play."

― Henry David Thoreau

― Joe Biden
"Under a government which imprisons unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison."
― Henry David Thoreau
"The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing."
― Edmund Burke
"Half a century ago, the amazing courage of Rosa Parks, the visionary leadership of Martin Luther King, and the inspirational actions of the civil rights movement led politicians to write equality into the law and make real the promise of America for all her citizens."
―David Cameron
"Mass civil disobedience is like an earthquake, a sort of general upheaval on the political plane."
― Mahatma Gandhi
"I had no idea that history was being made. I was just tired of giving in."
― Rosa Parks
"When a man's conscience and the laws clash, it is his conscience that he must follow."
― Henry David Thoreau
"If we accept and acquiesce in the face of discrimination, we accept the responsibility ourselves. We should, therefore, protest openly everything ... that smacks of discrimination or slander."
― Mary McLeod Bethune
"The first principle of non-violent action is that of non-cooperation with everything humiliating."
― Cesar Chavez

― Henry David Thoreau
"Civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty when the state becomes lawless and corrupt."
― Mahatma Gandhi
"Civil disobedience means capacity for unlimited suffering without the intoxicating excitement of killing."
― Mahatma Gandhi
"If a law is unjust, a man is not only right to disobey it, he is obligated to do so."
― Thomas Jefferson
"First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you, then you win."
― Mahatma Gandhi
"If the machine of government is of such a nature that it requires you to be the agent of injustice to another, then, I say, break the law."
― Henry David Thoreau
"Women have to risk civil disobedience for their rights."
― Sonia Johnson
"As long as the world shall last there will be wrongs, and if no man objected and no man rebelled, those wrongs would last forever."
―Clarence Darrow
"I am free, no matter what rules surround me. If I find them tolerable, I tolerate them; if I find them too obnoxious, I break them. I am free because I know that I alone am morally responsible for everything I do."
―Robert A. Heinlein
"If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality."
―Bishop Desmond Tutu
Indeed, civil disobedience is an instrument of social change and can be used for betterment of society and individuals. It can help bring awareness about unfair practices meted to the weaker sections of society.
So, all this PSYCHO-SEXUAL capture of people inside their homes-----all the public surveillance cameras and microphones capturing EVERYONE'S movements and conversations-----not really ALL-AMERICAN.
