Your letter could save Bernard von NotHaus from prison


Subj: Your letter could save Bernard von NotHaus from prison
 

|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|*|

 

Bernard von NotHaus faces many years in prison. *What was his crime?*

 

von NotHaus dared to compete with the Federal Reserve monopoly to provide

people with an alternative form of money based on gold and silver.

 

*His customers were happy with his service.*

 

But the federal gangsters were not happy. (If you think I'm wrong to call

them gangsters please see my counter-argument below).

 

The feds hate it when their legalized counterfeiting has to compete with

money having real value. So . . .

 

They arrested von NotHaus and confiscated his *CUSTOMERS'* property.

 

von NotHaus didn't victimize anyone. But his customers were victimized by

The State.

 

Now, von NotHaus faces years in prison.

Jim Babka wrote a letter to the Judge in the Von NotHaus case asking for a

new trial.

 

I read Jim's letter and loved it.

 

I told Jim it deserved a wider audience, and that we should turn the von

NotHaus case into a cause of action. Jim agreed to let me proceed.

 

*Before we begin, a word of warning . . .*

 

Jim's letter to the Judge is long. I tend to dislike long writing. You will

notice, for instance, that the Dispatch has been under 700 words for most

of its history, and recently we've been striving to keep it under 400

words. By comparison . . .

 

Jim's letter to the Judge is 1,723 words. So I must really think the letter

is special to endorse asking you to read something of that length. I do

think the letter is special.

I think you'll be glad you invested the time.

 

*So here's what I'm asking you to do . . .*

Read Jim's letter here.

Then write your own letter to the Judge on behalf of von NotHaus

 

*Bernard von NotHaus has asked that letters be written this way . . .*

 

Use your own words, though you can quote from Jim's letter if you want.

Be polite. Von NotHaus says the Judge is a fair and open-minded man.

Ask the Judge to give von NotHaus a new trial. That's what Bernard is

seeking.

 

Mail your letter here:

 

The Honorable Richard L. Voorhees

 

US District Judge for the Western District of North Carolina

 

250 Charles R. Jones Federal Building

 

401 West Trade Street

 

Charlotte, NC  28202

 

Please share your letter with us. We will send some of them on to Bernard.

Email it to us at feedback@downsizedc.org

 

*Finally, a word about words . . .*

 

Are the fed's really gangsters? If you think politicians and federal agents

have some special magic to turn wrong into right then they are not

gangsters. But . . .

 

If you think agents of The State must abide by the same moral rules you

do, then . . .

The words they apply to you for an act must also apply to them.

 

*For instance . . .*

 

If you printed massive amounts of worthless paper money The State would

call you a counterfeiter.

If you used threats of violence to detain and hold a man like Bernard

von NotHaus you would be called a kidnapper.

If you confiscated property as the Feds did to Bernard's customers you

would be called a thief.

 

*As they would judge you, you should judge them.*

 

We need to overcome The [LINK:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Stockholm_Syndrome] Stockholm Syndrome by

which victims come to identify with their oppressors. This is exactly how

most of us relate to The State. *That must stop.*

 

Using honest words to make honest judgements is a step on the path to a

future society based on the *Zero Aggression Principle:* /No one should

initiate force or fraud against others, nor delegate doing so to agents of

The State./

 

*I hope you read [LINK:

Jim's letter and then write the Judge.*

I can tell you for sure that the Judge will not read that letter, he just won't. If you can't keep your's short then forget it. Ken
