Thank goodness for jury-nullification and the lessons it teaches. Whether you’re on a jury or not, it’s your job to decide what is just – what constitutes justice – rather than just follow the law…

….

You will never know it when it hits you where anything you do will be against the law then.

pretty clear to me.

Example 1: Yes, warning a murderer that cops are after him would be a criminal act in itself, because the murderer is already accountable for causing a human death.

Example 2: Not ratting out the “pothead friend.” The pothead in question is NOT violating the Rights or causing injury/damage to anyone else or their property, as long as he smokes it in the privacy of his own home.

Example 3: Not ratting out a “rapist friend” IS a crime because the perp HAS committed injury/damage to someone else.

So, indeed, it’s not a crime to communicate a warning of a speedtrap to other motorists…In fact, you are telling them that a potential violator of their Rights is laying in ambush for them, thus, helping to safeguard THEIR Rights! In truth, is anyone else’s Rights being violated or their property being damaged when a cop pulls you over for speeding? NO! Therefore you are commiting NO crime & speedtraps are nothing more or less than an act of EXTORTION under the “color of law,” not the enforcement of any true Law.

This is the basis of our Law system as it was established by the Founding Fathers…Government is charged with UPHOLDING our Rights & obey the Due Process of Law in punishing those who have violated the Equal Rights of others. “Pre-emptive Law Enforcement” is NOT AN OPTION included in the Law. Also, any legislation enacted into Law must also conform with these principles, otherwise the Law itself automatically NULLIFIES the new legislation (There’s no need for a court judgement to actually declare a law to be invalid under these circumstances…It just IS nullified).

Yes, our nation, government & Law has been severely twisted away from our State & US Constitutions…But the only ones who can truly enforce them is We the People. Nearly all, if not all, State Constitutions include phrasing to the effect that “the source of all political power originates from the People.” Even the Preamble of the US Constitution states that “We the People…ordain & establish this Constitution.” This is only ONE of the primary principles stated in the Declaration of Independence that made its way into the Constitution under more specific terms.

As contracts of employment, every government Officer is required to take on the Oath of Office (to protect, defend & uphold the Constitution) before being allowed to exercise any of the Powers delegated to the Office…Any abuse of that authority results in immediate removal from office & follwed up with charges under indictment: ie; immediately fired from the job & held accountable for any crimes perpetrated against the People and/or State Constitution and/or US Constituion. Also, as contracts of employment, “We the People” are the employers & the Officers are the Employees, therefore the Officers are ALWAYS held accountable to the Public for their behavior while acting in the name of the Office; In short, there is no backing of the Law for a judge to declare that any Citizen has “no standing” to press indictment against a government officer for misbehaviors while in Office.

The main reason things have gotten so badly warped is because the “bosses” have simply ignored the “employees” when they run roughshod over us…What they’re doing now has NO resemblance to the Law except as acting as the violators of it. We the People are the ultimate interpreters (in truth, if any Constitution needs changes or clarifications added, they themselves include the Due Process for MAKING necessary changes…ex: Article 5 in the US Constitution. The employees have NO LAWFUL GROUNDS to enact arbitrary re-interpretations on their own) & ultimate enforcers of these contracts of employment. We’ve simply stopped enforcing the terms & conditions of our Constitutions & corrupted Officers have STOLEN our own Offices away from us.

I agree with Travis above. The point of the law is to slow down traffic. If traffic is slowed because of threat of ticket or due to communication of police, the intent has been met.

It’s the same reason why I support mobile phone apps that map out red light cameras.

That statistic is appalling. It is a good thing that someone has the means to fight it. Whether by tickets or high-beams, the state should be happy that the job is getting done.

If people are required to report “crimes” that is both forced speech and imposed liability for the actions of others.

A legal system that requires 1. silence when government is active or 2. forced expression when citizens are engaged in unapproved activities is totalitarian and violates the constitution.

No. Absolutely not.

Flashing high beams are not only used to communicate with cars on the other side of the highway, but also to communicate with the car in front of you (and not just to tell them to get out of the way – sometimes there is a problem with the vehicle), or to indicate to a truck that it is clear to change lanes.

It is a form of communication, should be fully protected under the 1st amendment, and should be exercised under presumed innocence – unlike most traffic violations seem to be.

Even in the case of your “searching for a murderer” – No. Absolutely not.
