ON THE TITLE 4 U.S.C. 1, AMERICAN FLAG
OF PEACE
OF THE united STATES OF AMERICA.
by Tom Gipson
THE FLAG, AS WITH ALL THINGS IN LAW, IS HIGHLY DEFINED
On June 14, 1776, Congress made the following resolution: "The flag of the United States shall be thirteen stripes, alternate red and white, with a union of thirteen stars of white on a blue field..." Because Congress made no rule for the arrangement of the stars, they were displayed in different ways, most usually in a circle. As new states joined the Union, they demanded representation in the stars and stripes of the flag. In 1795 Congress voted to increase to 15 the number of stars and stripes. Legislation enacted in 1818 reestablished the number of stripes at 13 and instituted the policy, "That on the admission of every new state into the Union, one star be added to the Union of the flag..."
An executive order issued by President William Howard Taft on Oct. 29,1912, fixed the overall width and length of the U.S. flag, known technically as the hoist and fly, respectively, in a ratio of 1: 1.9. The thirteen stripes were fixed at equal width. The hoist of the blue field containing the stars was fixed at seven-thirteenths of the overall hoist, that is, as extending from the top of the flag to the bottom of the seventh stripe. The fly of the blue field was fixed at a tiny fraction over three-fourths the overall hoist. The diameter of each star was established as a minute fraction under one-sixteenth of the overall hoist.
Currently, the Flag of the united States of America is defined at title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 and Presidential Executive Order 10834, found in the Federal Register at Vol. 24. No. 166, P.6365-6367. The American Flag of Peace of the united States of America is described as red, white and blue, with thirteen alternating red and white horizontal stripes, and a blue field (union) with 50 stars, one to represent each of the several States. The Flag is proportional, (1 X 1.9) . This proportion is easily determined by measuring the length (fly) and dividing by the measurement of the width (hoist). The length divided by the width should be very nearly 1.9. If the flag is not to the correct 1 X 1.9 proportion, it is not a title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 American Flag of Peace of the united States of America.
THERE ARE ABSOLUTELY NO PROVISIONS IN THE LAW
FOR ADDING
A FOURTH COLOR (YELLOW FRINGE) TO THE TITLE 4 U.S.C.
1, 2 FLAG.
Title 4 U.S.C. 3 provides that anything put on the title 4 U.S.C., 1, 2 Flag (gold fringe) MUTILATES the Flag and carries a one-year prison term. This is confirmed by the authority of title 36 U.S.C. 176 (g). The gold fringe is the fourth color and represents "color of law" and when placed on the title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 Flag, mutilates the Flag and suspends the Constitution and establishes "color of law." (Refer to title 18 U.S.C. 242, see Black's Law Dictionary).
As provided by title 36 U.S.C. 173 and Army Regulation 840-10, chapter 2-1(b), the Flag of the united States of America is defined and described in title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2. Civilians must use the title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 Flag (see title 36 U.S.C. 173 and Army Regulation 840-10, chapter 2-7) and when military flags are displayed by Army Regulation 840-10, chapter 2 and title 36 U.S.C. 175.
THE ONLY AUTHORITY FOR A FRINGE ON THE FLAG IS
IN
THE ARMY REGULATIONS FOR THE NATIONAL (MILITARY) FLAGS ONLY
The U.S. Attorney General has stated: "The placing of a gold fringe on the national flag, the dimensions of the flag, and the arrangements of the stars in the union are matters of detail not controlled by statute, but are within the discretion of the President as Commander-in- Chief of the Army and Navy. . .ancient custom sanctions the use of fringe on regimental colors and standards, but there seems to be no good reason or precedent for its use on other flags. . .the use of such a fringe is prescribed in current Army Regulations, No. 260-10." (See 34 Ops. Atty. Gen. 483 & 485) The only statute or regulation, in the United States, prescribing a yellow fringed United States flag is Army Regulation No. 260-10, making it a military flag.
By Army Regulation 260-10, the gold fringe may be used only on regimental "colors," the President's flag, for military courts martial, and the flags used at military recruiting centers.
"A military flag emblem of a nation, usually made of cloth and flown from a staff; FROM A MILITARY STANDPOINT flags are of two general classes...those flown from stationary masts over army posts, and those carried by troops in formation. The former are referred to by the general name of flags. The later are called colors when carried by dismounted troops. COLORS AND STANDARDS are more nearly square than flags and are made of silk, with a knotted FRINGE OF YELLOW ON THREE SIDES. . .USE OF A FLAG -- THE MOST GENERAL AND APPROPRIATE USE OF THE FLAG IS AS A NATIONAL SYMBOL OF AUTHORITY AND POWER." (National Encyclopedia, Vol. 4)
The adornments on the top of the flag pole are for military use only. The gold eagle is for the use of the President of the United States only, and only in time of war. The gold spear ball is for military recruiting centers only. The gold acorn is for military parades only. (Army Regulation 840-10, chapter 8).
Colors -- "A flag, ensign, or standard borne
in an army or fleet." (Webster's 1971)
Color -- An appearance, semblance, or simulacrum,
as distinguished from that which is real. A prima facie or apparent right.
Hence, a deceptive appearance; a plausible, assumed exterior, concealing a
lack or reality; a disguise or pretext. (Black's Law Dictionary, 6th Ed.)
Color of law -- The appearance or semblance,
without the substance, of legal right. Misuse of power, possessed by virtue
of state law and made possible only because wrongdoer is clothed with authority
of state, is action taken under "color of state law." (Atkins v. Lanning,
415 F. Supp. 186, 188)
Colorable --That which is in appearance only,
and not in reality, what it purports to be, hence counterfeit, feigned, having
the appearance of truth. (Windle v. Flinn, 251 P. 2d 136, 146)
Colorable alteration -- One which makes no
real or substantial change, but is introduced only as a subterfuge or means
of evading the patent or copyright law. (Black's 6th)
Colorable imitation -- In the law of trademarks,
this phrase denotes such a close or ingenious imitation as to be calculated
to deceive ordinary persons. (Black's 6th)
The Title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 American Flag of the united States of America takes precedence over all other flags, as it is the superior flag, and establishes the jurisdiction of the united States of America, and the laws made in pursuance thereof.
THE LAW OF THE FLAG
The Law of the Flag, an International Law, which is recognized by every nation of the planet, is defined as: " .. a rule to the effect that a vessel is a part of the territory of the nation whose flag she flies. The term is used to designate the right under which a ship owner, who sends his vessel into a foreign port, gives notice by his flag to all who enter into contracts with the ship master that he intends the Law of that Flag to regulate those contracts, and that they must either submit to its operation or not contract with him or his agent at all." (Ref.: Ruhstrat v. People, 57 N.E. 41)
By the doctrine of "four cornering" the flag establishes the law of the country that it represents. For example, the embassies of foreign countries, in Washington D.C., are "four cornered" by walls or fencing, creating an "enclave." Within the boundaries of the "enclave" of the foreign embassy, the flag of that foreign country establishes the jurisdiction and law of that foreign country, which will be enforced by the Law of the Flag and international treaty. If you enter an embassy, you will be subject to the laws of that country, just as if you board a ship flying a foreign flag, you will be subject to the laws of that flag, enforceable by the "master of the ship," (Captain), by the law of the flag.
Under Article IV, section 3, of the Constitution for the united States of America, no new State shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State. So -- why have the Germans been allowed to erect a German enclave at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico, under the Law of the Flag? Why have the judges of the State and Federal courts been allowed to erect foreign enclaves within our courthouses under the foreign flag of the yellow fringe on the soil of Texas?
The flags displayed in State courts and courts of the United States have gold or yellow fringes. It is your warning that you are entering a foreign enclave and will be under the jurisdiction of that flag. The flag of the gold or yellow fringe has no constitution, no laws, and no rules of court, and is not recognized by any Nation on the earth, and is foreign to Texas and the united States of America. When you enter a courtroom displaying a gold or yellow fringed flag, you have just entered into a foreign country, and you better have your passport with you, you may not be coming back. The judge under a gold or yellow fringe flag becomes the "captain" or "master" and has absolute power to make the rules as he goes. The gold or yellow fringe flag is your warning that you are leaving your Constitutionally secured rights at the door. "It is an elementary rule of pleading, that a plea to the jurisdiction is a tacit (silent) admission that the court has a right to judge in the case and is a waiver to all exception to the jurisdiction." (Girty v. Logan, 6 Bush KY, 8)
You can watch over the ramparts by the dawn's early light, with bombs bursting in the air, until you go blind, but you will not see a title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 Flag with its bright stars and broad stripes. When the flags are gone, the Country is gone.
You may see something that looks like an American Flag, (a colorable flag, a colorable alteration or imitation) but it is a shortened National Flag, for military use only. Take your tape measure and calculator to determine what kind of a flag it is. Five will get you ten that its proportion is 1 X 1.66 or 1 X 1.5. It looks like a duck, walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, but it ain't a duck.
Why do private businesses display National Flags with military adornments on the flag pole? Why do banks display gold or yellow fringed flags, with gold adornments, in their lobbies? Is McDonald's competing with the Army recruiters? Why have military "colors" been placed in our public schools? Why are our children being taught under martial law, in foreign or military enclaves with no Constitutionally secured rights, under the Law of the Flag. Why do most churches display gold or yellow fringed flags with gold adornments? Does your Church have a pastor or chaplain? A military or foreign flag, displayed without the presence of a title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 Flag suspends the Constitution, by the international law of the flag.
BUT MOST OF ALL, WHY DO CIVILIAN COURTS DISPLAY
MILITARY OR FOREIGN FLAGS?
WHY DO CIVILIAN JUDGES CONDUCT COURTS MARTIAL FOR CIVILIANS?
WHY ARE THERE NO MANUFACTURERS THAT PRODUCE CORRECT TITLE 4 U.S.C. 1 FLAGS? Try to buy one.
AMERICA HAS BEEN CONQUERED AND BY TACIT ADMISSION,
THE PEOPLE HAVE SURRENDERED!!
When two nations go to war, the object of the game is to capture the other guy's flag. When you go onto foreign soil, take the other guy's flag down and put yours up, you have captured the other guy's territory and put it under the law (Constitution) of your flag.
Sun Tzu, the ancient Chinese philosopher and general, said that when the Art of War is brought to its highest pinnacle, the enemy will be conquered without the opposing armies ever having met in the field. By skillfully using the art of deception, and skillful use of agents to infiltrate the enemy's government, the enemy may be conquered without the enemy even knowing that it had been conquered.
WE HAVE BEEN CONQUERED! WHERE IS THE VFW? WHERE ARE THE VETERANS THAT PAID SO HIGH A PRICE FOR THE TITLE 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 AMERICAN FLAG AND THE LIBERTY AND COUNTRY THAT IT REPRESENTS? WILL THESE MEN WHO SACRIFICED SO MUCH CONTINUE TO CONSENT TO THE FALL OF OUR NATION BY THEIR CONTINUED SILENCE? HAVE THEY CAPITULATED BY TACIT AGREEMENT?
Capitulation -- the act or agreement of surrendering
upon negotiated or simulated terms. (Black's Law Dictionary, 6th Ed.)
Tacit -- Existing, inferred, or understood without
being openly expressed or stated; implied by silence or silent acquiescence,
as a tacit agreement or tacit understanding. Done or made in silence, implied
or indicated, but not actually expressed. Manifested by the refraining from
contradiction or objection; inferred from the situation and circumstance,
in the absence of express matter. (Black's Law Dictionary 6th Ed.)
Tacit admissions -- An acknowledgment or concession
of a fact inferred from either silence or from the substance of what one
has said.
Maxim of Law -- "Tacita quaedam habentur
pro expressis" -- THINGS UNEXPRESSED ARE SOMETIMES CONSIDERED AS EXPRESSED.
CONCLUSION
Our elected officials, judges, county commissioners, city councils, school boards and school administrators, police, the State Legislators, Governor, the U.S. Congress, and even the President have all committed acts of CONSTRUCTIVE TREASON, (defined as: "..an attempt to establish treason by circumstantiality, and not by the simple genuine letter of the law, and therefore is highly dangerous to public freedom." C.J.S., vol. 87, p. 910) either knowingly or unknowingly, against the People of the united States of America by surrendering the American Flag of Peace of the united States of America to the foreign state/power of the yellow fringe flag and erecting 'foreign enclaves' on the soil of the several States in breach of Article IV, Section 3. When all of the title 4 U.S.C. 1, 2 American Flags are gone, our country, the united States of America and our precious Constitutions are gone.
If the flag is not important, why then, did an entire battalion of Marines, in early 1942, die to the last man on Wake Island defending the flag against the Japanese? These Marines DID NOT SURRENDER THE FLAG!
In early 1942, in the Philippines, a young officer named Lt. Ramsey, under the command of Gen. Wainwright, led the last mounted calvary charge in the history of the U.S. Army. Lt. Ramsey and his men fought so viciously and with such determination that, against overwhelming odds, the Japanese were routed, buying precious time to enable the American forces to retreat to the peninsula of Bataan. When the American forces were finally forced by starvation to surrender to the Japanese, Lt. Ramsey refused to surrender and slipped through the Japanese lines with a handful of his men and continued to make war against the Japanese with the Philippine Army. By hiding in the mountains and jungle, Lt. Ramsey, though poorly equipped, was able to train a guerrilla army and wreak havoc on the Japanese until Gen. McArthur returned. Lt. Ramsey did not surrender his flag!
DEFINITION
Constructive Treason -- Officers that swear
an oath and affirmation for supporting and defending the Constitution for
the united States of America and by surrendering the oath and affirmation
to the foreign state/power of the foreign yellow or gold fringe flag, causing
the party before the court a deprivation of rights, with will of intent by
the judge, by overt acts to surrender the Constitution of the united States
of America into the hand of a foreign power/state, by definition is guilty
of constructive treason.
Constructive Treason -- Treason imputed to
a person by law from his conduct or course of action, though his deeds taken
severally do not amount to actual treason. (Black's 6th)
