NOTE FROM THE EDITOR: As we see another election coming this November, most people are guided by the same power that has sustained a complete monopoly of the political process in the United States – the mainstream media. Univision, Telemundo, CBS, NBC, ABC, and even local National Public Radio affiliate KQED, all of whose agenda is to lead us on the transition into a World Government.
The election euphoria is like the Super Bowl, where a year prior, we start being bombarded with propaganda – with marketing at work, trying to sell us everything that is for sale in the mall. They prepare us to submit our mind and time to watching their big event, which will take us away from the real issues: poverty, lack of a quality education, jobs and on the continuous ongoing loss of our liberty.
Check this out, can you believe just how big and powerful the government has become and how far they’ve gone to declare itself the owner of Planet Earth?
Teachers are being arrested for praying in the classroom, while the promotion of violence on TV and in movies accelerate the dehumanization and demoralization of America’s youth with its institutionalized violence and promiscuous sex. Meanwhile, American soldiers are condemned to the lowest treatment in violation of the most basic rights afforded to a human being despite their willingness to make the ultimate sacrifice for their country: that of their lives.
Such is the case of Bradley Manning, who is accused of leaking state secrets to WikiLeaks, and was held in a 6×8 foot cell nearly 24 hours a day. In addition, when not sleeping, Manning was banned from lying down, or even using a wall to support him.
His lawyers filed a motion that claims Manning was punished through “degradation and humiliation”, notably by forcing him to stand outside his cell naked during a morning inspection. This was considered by his defense “retaliatory punishment” for speaking out about the way he was treated.
The following article, written by editor and writer for PrisonPlanet.com, Paul Joseph Watson, better describes what the abuse of big government looks like.
Man jailed for collecting rainwater begins sentence

An Oregon man sent to prison for collecting rainwater on his own property began the first day of his jail sentence with a warning that the American people need to stand up to a government that is operating completely outside the boundaries of common sense unless they wish to see liberty vanish.
After an 11-year battle with the state of Oregon, landowner Gary Harrington was found guilty under a 1925 law and sentenced to spend 30 days in jail for collecting rainwater in three “illegal reservoirs” despite the fact that they are on his property.
After refusing to follow an order to empty the “reservoirs” (which in reality are little more than large ponds), Harrington decided to follow through with the jail sentence as an example to other Americans as to how far the country has slipped from its constitutional values.
Harrington’s case has become a cause célèbre for Americans sick to the back teeth of big government interfering in property rights.
Flanked by protesters gathered outside of the Jackson County (Ore.) Jail, Harrington said he loved his country and was willing to go to jail “to get the truth out and restore freedom and common sense in America.”
Accusing Oregon state officials of failing to uphold their oath of office and pledge of allegiance, Harrington pointed out that citizens did not consent to be governed by those who fail to understand the rights enshrined in the constitution, adding that officials did not take into account the “historically understood” legal right to collect rain water during wet season.
Harrington pointed out that the state had broken their own law by issuing permits to individuals allowing them to divert water from public supplies, whereas Harrington was merely collecting rainwater that fell on his own property and was not taken from municipal supplies.
“Common sense is the basis for common law, without common sense, the Corporatismlaw is insane and we did not agree to be governed by insanity or illegality,” said Harrington, adding that throughout American history, citizens have laid their lives down to preserve cherished rights.
“I’m sacrificing my liberty so that we can wake up as a country and stand for our liberty,” said Harrington, adding that his campaign had only just begun.
As we have documented, Harrington’s case is just one of dozens across the country that illustrate how the establishment is using draconian regulatory powers to eviscerate property rights and re-define Americans as de-facto feudal slaves with no inherent rights whatsoever.
This process is being carried out under the umbrella of the United Nations’ Agenda 21 project, which demands that member nations adopt “sustainable development” policies that are little more than a disguise for the reintroduction of neo-feudalism and only serve to reduce living standards and quality of life.
