Re: Petition for Writ of Certiorari 14-10088 - USAP8 15-1057, David Gerard Jeep, v. United States – counter to “absolute immunity” for the deprivation of rights

Dear People,

I realize that all your quixotic polemics are not even worth a “parchment guarantee,” in the REAL-EVERYDAY-WORLD, for “any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws” of the United States of America… male, female, gay, straight, white, black, red, yellow, pink, or purple. 

Both of your assertions in King v. Burwell and Obergefell v. Hodges are without any real consistent basis, other than self-aggrandizingly rhetorical.  You both want to look like you are defending the “rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws” of the United States of America but you both know that is a lie.  Your support is without any real consistent resoluteness. 

Before the South won, pre-Civil-War, “We the People” could rely on our rights.  It was, at least judicially, "a general and indisputable rule that where there is a legal right, there is also a legal remedy by suit or action at law whenever that right is invaded" (Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 163 (1803)).

As pseudo students of history I would hope you know that “any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws”[1] of the United States of America lost all their gravitas with the despotic southern judicial victory post-Civil-War.  But alas I realize, as M. L. King, Jr. said, “Nothing in all the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.”[2]

I see people fashionably upset by the glorification of the Southern Victories with Rebel Flags and rebel heroes, glorified with street names and public statuary.  If they only knew the true facts, they would be crying as I do.

The Black Robed Royalist Article III oligarchy on the Supreme Court starting after the Civil War in 1868[3] and 1871[4] has quashed the “sense and reason”[5] of the “raison d'être”[6] of We the People’s Constitution, Amendments, and the enactment of the constitutionally authorized ex industria[7] statute laws, now codified into the U.S. Code as 18 USC §241 - §242 Criminal Deprivation of rights under color of law and 42 USC §1983 - §1985 Civil action for deprivation of rights.  We the People have been suffering from the despotic southern Black Robed Royalist Article III oligarchy’s criminal[8] deprivation of rights “under color of law” EVER SINCE!

Now I realize that Ginsburg’s recent assertions might appear on the surface to be more consistent with “rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws” of the United States of America.  But she has turned a blind eye at least 5 times,[9] I am personally aware of, to the 147 year issue of “absolute immunity” for the "the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws of the United States of America."

I have to ask, where would “We the People” be today had the judicial constitutional “general and indisputable rule that where there is a legal right, there is also a legal remedy by suit or action at law whenever that right is invaded" (Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 163 (1803)) HELD post-Civil-War for ALL PERSONS as “We the People” “desired to accomplish, which they attempted to accomplish, and which they supposed they had accomplished by changes in their fundamental law”[10]?

With Scalia’s recent yammerings in Obergefell v. Hodges and King v. Burwell, he clearly does not have the slightest clue as to what rights are all about or how statues are read.  But I restate just so he cannot deny them - the Constitutional Judicial Rule prior to the South winning the Civil War was "a general and indisputable rule that where there is a legal right, there is also a legal remedy by suit or action at law whenever that right is invaded" (Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 163 (1803)).  Post-Civil-War it was REITERATED into ex industria constitutionally authorized statute law, the Civil Rights Acts of 1866 and 1871:

“Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia.”[11]

and

“Whoever, under color of any law, statute, ordinance, regulation, or custom, willfully subjects any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or to different punishments, pains, or penalties, on account of such person being an alien, or by reason of his color, or race, than are prescribed for the punishment of citizens, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than one year, or both; and if bodily injury results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include the use, attempted use, or threatened use of a dangerous weapon, explosives, or fire, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.”[12]

There is no grey-area as to the interpretations of the pre-Civil War constitutional judicial rule and post-Civil-War statutes.  Constitutionally Judges were bound[13] prior to the Civil War and then post-Civil-War “Every person” or “Whoever,” without exclusion, were constitutionally and knowingly prohibited from the “the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States” “under color of any law…” by the constitution and ex industria constitutionally authorized statute law.

The Article III life-time-appointment was never meant to be a cover up for “sincere ignorance or conscientious stupidity.”  There is an enforceable “sense and reason,”[14] of the “raison d'être” if you will, [15] to every law that may conflict with a hypothetically EXTRACTED biased interpretation of a phrase isolated from the whole as the court agreed in King v. Burwell.  The Article III life-time-appointment was meant to establish Justice based on the “sense and reason,”[16] the “raison d'être” [17] if you will, for minorities (LGBT and men in the “Jane Crow” era – see PWCert 14-10088) against entrenched pejorative majorities to vindicate “any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws” for ALL PERSONS.

To any reasonable interpretation the “sense and reason”[18] of the “raison d'être”[19] of both post-Civil-War statutes was the statutory reassertion of the constitutional pre-Civil War judicial rule i.e., "a general and indisputable rule that where there is a legal right, there is also a legal remedy by suit or action at law whenever that right is invaded" (Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. 163 (1803)).

Clearly the rights to have the government endorse your “paternity rights,” your “property rights,” your right to assert next of kin” on a death certificate and “marital commitments” (and associated joint paternity and property rights) are “fundamental right(s) inherent in the liberty of the person” i.e., “rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws” and subject to the constitutional protection of “due process of law” and “equal protection of the laws.”[20]  As the Court’s opinion makes clear quoting Cicero, “The first bond of society is marriage; next, children; and then the family.”[21]

All of that is defeated today by “absolute immunity” for the “the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured or protected by the Constitution or laws of the United States,”         see Petition for Writ of Certiorari 14-10088. 

If there is anything further I can do for you in this regard, please let me know

Thank you in advance,

“Time is of the essence”

David G. Jeep
