		<description><![CDATA[Dear Mr Turley, I&#039;m a homeless person living in LA. I offended some people back min 1998 with connections to the fire dept, fed ex and the Bergen county sheriifs office. A smear campaign was initiated against me. I was illegally injected with microchips during a consumer product study in July 2004 in Fairfield, NJ. For the past 12 years I&#039;ve been systematically stalked like an animal by large groups of people. I&#039;ve been ignored by virtually anyone who can make a difference. Personally gave a letter to Chris Christie in Dec 2008 at Bergen Community college, had filed a complaint with his office in 2003. Being ignored by all people in LA who can do something. I feel like I&#039;m the enemy and I&#039;m just a civilian. So I walk around with foreign objects in my body so people at the police/fire dept. can get their jollies. Our country is in far worse shape than anyone previously thought. If no cares that I don&#039;t have civil rights anymore, who&#039;s next? and why will anyone care? Can you tell me where I can go for surgery. I&#039;m getting the perpetual runaround here.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am new to the blog and enjoy reading the articles.  I spent 38 years practicing law and a lot of my best time was for civil rights clients.  I have found here something that centers on my civil liberties interests.  When I chime in with comments it may be jocularly.  But this is serious stuff.

When Gingrich came out with the call to arms to arrest activist judges on the Ninth Circuit and elsewhere with the Capitol Police (sp) and the U.S. Marshals, he stepped over the line into war crimes.  It would be appropriate in this blog to discuss the Judges Trial at Nuremberg prosecuted by the United States alone right after the International Tribunials.  Folks can Google Josef Alstoetter and find the articles.  Here is a description from wikipedia:
The Judges&#039; Trial (or the Justice Trial, or, officially, The United States of America vs. Josef Altstötter, et al.) was the third of the 12 trials for war crimes the U.S. authorities held in their occupation zone in Germany in Nuremberg after the end of World War II. These twelve trials were all held before U.S. military courts, not before the International Military Tribunal, but took place in the same rooms at the Palace of Justice. The twelve U.S. trials are collectively known as the &quot;Subsequent Nuremberg Trials&quot; or, more formally, as the &quot;Trials of War Criminals before the Nuremberg Military Tribunals&quot; (NMT).
The defendants in this case were 16 German jurists and lawyers. Nine had been officials of the Reich Ministry of Justice, the others were prosecutors and judges of the Special Courts and People&#039;s Courts of Nazi Germany. They were — amongst other charges — held responsible for implementing and furthering the Nazi &quot;racial purity&quot; program through the eugenic and racial laws.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mr Turley, I watched a wonderful interview you did on privacy and the erosion of same, including the erosion/amendments to the constitution, and arrest and confinement at the will/whim of the government without due process .
I don&#039;t know a-lot about the American voting system other than when it comes to Americans on the day of voting they have options of A or B, as you say Blue or Red. Perhaps a end result is voting for the one you least despise.
Would it not be possible especially in today&#039;s climate of such (largely ignored) civil dissatisfaction and unrest that a motion be promoted that instead of voting A or B that the people write through the middle of the vote NEITHER OF THE ABOVE, actively vote for NEITHER OF THE ABOVE! 
Surly it would have some impact if only in letting the American people see that they do have a choice by actively voting against. It may help dissipate some of the downtrodden lethargy and helplessness experienced by many or most of America today!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Turley---------do you think polygamy should be legal??   Do you think we should have legalized gay marriage 100 years ago??   Why is President Obama and Hillary and Al Gore and John Kerry against gay marriage??   Maybe because they fear God.     Do we have too many law schools in our blessed country??     I for one think we should just keep society simple and have faith, prayer, fasting, pay tithing, community support,  strong families, traditional marriage and be honest with ourselves and say it is breaking God&#039;s commandments that breaks down the family and that in turn breaks down society.  (Bible is more important than law school and constitution)  It is that simple.  It is not complex.   It is not legal theory.    Sin is sin-----Paul and Peter said so;   all are free to agree or disagree----but nobody can change the commandments and the need for prophets both anciently and today (yes I&#039;m Mormon)---- to say what we read in 1 Corinthians (chapters 1-3) that the wisdom of this world is foolishness---the wisdom in law school is foolishness.    Being moral and honest and of faith in sacred texts ---works!!!!!!   And if one has faith,  there is never a need to worry about free speech----God will protect us----if you have no faith---you are on your own in life.   Intellectuals run around saying &quot;Be afraid of this&quot;  &quot;Be afraid of that&quot;------people will take this away from you----or that-------no,  God is in control and you can not force me to live by fear.   Book of Mormon is near 150 million printings and you are fighting an uphill battle against simple faith, prayer and keeping God&#039;s commandments.    You are kicking against the pricks as Paul was told in Acts.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Turley,

With all this praise your hat size must have grown 4 inches.
That you would &quot;chide&quot; Madison is appalling arrogance.

Those who&#039;ve been kissing up to Turley, especially the women--did you know that Turley has vowed he will stop at nothing to assure that American females are never, ever going to be included in the nation&#039;s contract with its people, the US Constitution?  That though males or male pronouns are listed there 39 times, females are never listed there--and you know what it means if you are not named in a contract!

By the way, Mr Turley,  I have read your news quotes on how haughtily you mock the efforts of those work endlessly to block sex discrimination against BOTH genders by passing the Equal Rights Amendment which barely missed passing by THREE states and IS declared &quot;viable and contemporaneous&quot;.

For this alone, you should yourself be impeached for professing to be an icon for the US Constitution.  

That you would be willing to sling such sleaze around to keep females, girls and males from anything like guaranteed democratic rights is incredible.  We 300 000 ask you to take off your &quot;superman&quot; costume and dump it in the garbage.  Start over as a genuine person.

How you have hoodwinked these sincere folks (above) is criminal.  Folks, go ask Turley what he will do to stop passage of the Equal Rights Amendment: 

 &quot;Equality under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.&quot;/gender.

Does not matter to him how anyone else feels nor how he ducks accountability for keeping American women second-class, in the company of Jordan, Sudan, Saudi Arabia, Lesotho possibly backed by his Mormon past.

Always ask for more evidence when worshipping idols.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[P.S. If the Rules of Evidence apply to all legal proceedings then judge&#039;s character evidence is not admissible.  

Connecting Blackstone on Judgment to the Founders of the Constitution must be like finding the Intent of Congress when a statute is open to more than one interpretation. We would look to speeches and writings by the Founders and to the plain definitions of the words commonly accepted at the time.   I typed &quot;Blackstone&quot; &quot;Jefferson&quot; and &quot;judgments&quot; into Google advanced search find these words and a bunch of references came up. For instance:

		<description><![CDATA[Probably most people have some personality &quot;issues&quot;. I don&#039;t think it is practical to monitor judges&#039; personalities. It doesn&#039;t work to fire teachers on the basis of personalities and it won&#039;t work with judges either.  If you were a judge you would also react negatively to the idea that judges should be fired for having bad personalities. 

What I am really interested in is regulating the format of judgments. I have until Christmas to resubmit a S.C. mandamus petition based on the S.C. having jurisdiction because a writ of certiorari isn&#039;t available because former judge Edward Nottingham didn&#039;t write an opinion in my civil lawsuit D of Colorado 02-cv-1950 and I don&#039;t have access to the 10th Circuit either because they ordered the clerks to return my documents. 

I found some good citations about the form of judgments in American Jurisprudence and would appreciate any others from anyone. I know that some people think that A.J. is too accessible but I think it is great.  I found:

&quot;It is a fundamental rule that a judgment should be complete and certain in itself and its form should be such as to indicate with reasonable clearness the decision which the Court has rendered so that the parties may be able to ascertain the extent to which their rights are fixed.&quot; American Jurisprudence section 444 p 89. 

How can I sell that to the S.C.? Help!  What legal authorities will they recognize on the form of judgments?  What is the legal significance of the U.S. Judicial Canons?   Is the form of judgment part of the privileges and immunities clause?  There must be something in some old law books.....  

Here is William Blackstone: Of Judgment. The S.C. would recognize this right as underlying the privileges and immunities clause because it predates the Constitution and was influential right?

		<description><![CDATA[The crackpot Judge, David Gamble, in Minden, NV has only gotten worse since his last ridiculous sentence, however now his dubious court orders have put many children in danger.  None of Dave Gamble&#039;s children will have anythng to do with him do to his contentious, controlling behavior.  Instead of taking responsibility for his poor parenting, he has blamed his ex-wife, and every other woman that walks into his court room unsuspectingly.  He has placed numerous children in abusive paternal homes without any regard for the law governing these cases, which states that there must be a change of circumstances to change custody.  Gamble believes he is above the law and simply relocates children as far away from their mothers as possible.  The children have been sexually, verbally, emotionally and physically abused and Gamble refuses to look at the CPS records.  One child has died.  How many more have to suffer because of his ego?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[wow, popular guy.  Prof. Turley, heard you on NPR (of all places) on the way home from the doctor.  Wanted to thank you for having the courage to speak up for the truth visa vi Obama and civil liberties.  I never actually supported Obama, me being a libertarian and admirer of Ron Paul, but I did have some hopes for him with respect to civil liberties and the rule of law and felt that , certainly, he had to be an improvement over Dubya.  Boy was I ever wrong.  The sad truth is, neither the left nor the right give a crap about   civil liberties when it comes down to it.  I suspect that no one who defines themselves by the left/right paradigm in this country counts civil liberties among their important concerns.  My best, doug carkuff]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear Ms. Wolk 

Thank you for your correction.   I did look up the complaint on PACER after reading what you wrote and it said that the plaintiff suffered &quot;mental anxiety, anguish, distress, humiliation and sleeplessness&quot; but did not mention other damages from prolonged unemployment.  

You&#039;re right that the law firm advertises itself as &quot;affordable&quot;.

I&#039;ve heard of you too. And I checked &quot;become a fan&quot; seeing an article you wrote about someone convicted of  a non existent crime.

		<description><![CDATA[Re: Kay&#039;s reference to Rentzell v. Dollar Tree. Unfortunately, you spelled the plaintiff&#039;s name wrong and it was a headache to locate the ruling. The case was not completely dismissed, only part of it. As to your statement that the plaintiff must have incurred financial, possibly property damages and possibly physical (health) due to stress from the defamation--his lawyer did not include any mention of this in his very brief pleadings.

In this case I think you cannot blame the judge. In my experience, unless a judge is given every fact and shown every available evidence, and everything is explained clearly, the judge may not know anything about that area of law. And these days, due to the economy, they have less help and far greater case loads.

Please note I am not an automatic admirer of judges. Too many are political appointees who do not subscribe to the oath they have taken. In this case, however, I believe the judge did not have an alternative. My sense is the plaintiff is paying little for representation, which is why the complaint is ten pages and the opposition to the motion to dismiss is seven pages.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Mr. Ward

Do you mean the president or the president&#039;s men?

Do you believe that there is a &quot;right&quot; not to have rights ignored, such as a right not to be prosecuted without probable cause, a right not to face perjury in court, etc.

I just read a court order dismissing Ralph M. Pentzall v Dollar Tree Stores U.S. Court Eastern PA 10-4270.  Pentzall complained that his former employer&#039;s agents spread lies about him to prevent him from getting employment. The Court dismissed because Pentzall didn&#039;t claim that he suffered physical damage to his body or his property (house? car?) and therefore didn&#039;t have a cognizable loss.  And of course, three years of unemployment must have damaged his health and caused him to sell or abandon his property. I just don&#039;t see how a court could decide that.

So do you think there is a right not to be defamed?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I read and appreciated your article on Obama and his poor civil liberties record. 
I was wondering if you knew anyone (or if you have yourself) created a chronological list of Bush and Obama actions against civil liberties. I would find this useful, and I think others probably would also, to see the recent history of civil liberties ingringements.
Thank you.

		<description><![CDATA[I have been researching DOJ&#039;s computer systems.  I found out that the Warrant Information Network, according to OIG, has inadequate controls over who can log in and inadequate records as to who does log in.  Once someone gets a USMS log in ID they can skip the WIN system and go directly to the NCIC and the National Law Enforcement Telecommunications System.  There they can post a notice that they want someone arrested and that can be implemented without a verification that there is a legitimate warrant and without creating an executed warrant.  Then a person, such as myself, can be held indefinitely without a bail hearing, a criminal charge, a notice of rights, an arraignment, or a recognized right to an attorney.  I don&#039;t have a criminal record at all but I was held by USMS for 5 months without a bail hearing, an arraignment, or notice of charges. I was told in court before being imprisoned that I didn&#039;t have a right to an attorney or to discovery or to witnesses on my behalf.  I was told that I would only be allowed to make a short presentation and I was not allowed to cross examine the witnesses against me, who were not sworn. 

My perception of my various blogs and other public notices is that what I am doing is akin to the warnings people wrote on walls before the WWII exterminations. Beware-- our rights are gone!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jonathan,

Thanks for turning me on to your blog.  I&#039;ve spent some time reading it this morning and you were right.  It&#039;s quite an intriguing Internet destination.  Many of your posters are very interesting and intelligent people (although I&#039;m still trying to get a grip on who constitutes &quot;the regulars&quot; as they call themselves).  The quality of the conversations on any given thread is quite high, even when they digress.  It&#039;s truly a tribute to you that you&#039;ve attracted such a following.  What you have to say about the Constitution, governance and even general topics of the day really seems to resonate with people.  

Kudos on a blog well done.

		<description><![CDATA[To: Jonathan Turley, Esq.

Out of a several year curiosity, I wonder if perhaps you are related to Jack Turley, Architect, who was Partner at Skidmore, Owings and Merrill, in Chicago?

As a young freshly minted architect (Washington University, STL)in the 70s
I worked in Jack Turley&#039;s studio.  He came to mind on the 4th of July as we
worked through that holiday one summer.  It was fun, BTW.

I have enjoyed your appearances on MSNBC and your calm measured thoughtful commentary.  Thanks for a measured voice in what is all too
often a debate in cacophony.

I am working on a complaint against our federal government based on inadequate arrest booking systems per 5 USC section 552a subsection e (9).   I have the 2004 and 2009 manuals for the Joint Automated Booking System and also the manual for the Prisoner Tracking System.  None of these manuals require verification that there is an actual pending criminal prosecution.  The computer systems allow the listing of emails of interested parties but don&#039;t require that the interested parties be actual authorized government prosecutors.

Since 9/11 the feds have spent a lot of money on finger print, eye ball, and tattoo identification but the computer specifications don&#039;t include any mechanism to determine that the prisoner is actually legally a prisoner due to an allegation that they committed a federal offense and/or that there was a hearing in which it was determined that there was an actual criminal charge.  

Personally, I was held by USMS 3 times for 5 months total without a criminal charge. I don&#039;t have a criminal record.  I was accused of petitioning the U.S. federal courts without permission.

I am really worried that there will be a new organized system of citizen arrests without formal written procedure or criminal prosecutions in the U.S.A.  Past genocides were quickly implemented. New computer technology enable mass arrests to be implemented quickly. Prior to WWII some people warned of the risks of genocide but they were ignored. I hope I am wrong. I want to be wrong. I have the DOJ manuals showing that DOJ computer systems are not set up to protect us, only to identify and track us, although the computer systems could protect our rights if so configured.

I hope you get to read my comment posted today, May 13,2011, regarding the striking French police. My daughter and I were 
mistreated so badly by the police, it&#039;s almost hard to believe. My sister told me she had seen something about the French police wanted to strike over there inability to consume alcohol and was outraged and did a search where I came upon your blog. They accused us of being drunk! We did nothing but try and search for a metro pass.
