One of the points I've been trying to make is that the
exact terminology of the laws is what makes all the difference between Rights &
privileges...It is a Right to Travel Freely, but it's a privilege to Drive a Motor Vehicle. The Right to Travel Freely does include "automobiles,"
but registering that automobile with the State re-classifies it a Motor Vehicle...That's where they get you on the path to
unwittingly waive
your Rights.

I don't consider the Constitution to be a religion. I consider it (rightly so) to be the Supreme Law of the Land:
Which all Government Officers
are oath bound to obey! I just have a "bad habit" of pointing out the difference between
real laws &
idiot laws.

I disagree with that notion of privilege, the state did not invent cars, they did not purchase my car and they did not teach me how to drive my
car.
They did not purchase your car, but when it was registered, you nevertheless gave them
ownership of the Title to it...That's how they can
legally turn it into a privilege. Even after you pay off whatever loan you had for it, you only get the
certificate that proves that the Title
exists, but the State still has the actual Title itself.
However, if you buy a car, make sure you don't let the dealer send the Title to the State...Ask them to give it to you instead & you'll take care of
any registration required: But also don't forget to ask if there are any liens on the Title...If they say "no" & you check with your local Hall of
Records & there
is a lien, you can sue the dealer for "non-disclosure." But to get license
plates for the car, you'll need to
register the car by giving the Title to the State (They won't give you any plates if you don't).
Just make sure that when you sign your name to the Title to register it, don't sign your name in all capital letters & be sure to include "under
duress" & "all rights reserved without prejudice UCC 1-207 & UCC 1-203" next to your signature. Also, when you get your Driver's License, include
those two phrases next to your signature there too.
That's the only way you can defend yourself
under the Constitution in a courtroom. To avoid getting hassled by the cops too often, still stop
when they tell you & cooperate up to the extent of your patience so that they can determine that they're not looking for
you specifically &
they'll let you go sooner: Be sure to (politely) ask them if they have "probable cause" for stopping you. If they
don't have probable cause
& hassle you beyond your patience with your Rights, you can nail 'em in court but good.

We have hired representatives among us in order that we can all drive safely on the same highways and those highways will be maintained and
regulated.
The whole proposed
purpose of such regulations are to help protect Free Traveling Citizens from the extra traffic congestion caused by business
interests making use of public roads for gain/profit. Business interests would include truck drivers, taxi drivers, even the pizza delivery boy, who
all perform their
jobs on public roads...It's the conducting of business that's legally defined as a "privilege." The real trickery comes
from the State DMV's that try to entrap Free Travelers into becoming Vehicle Drivers.
If you manage to retain your Rights under the Constitution (instead of waiving them for State-granted privileges), then you can defend yourself all
the way up to the Supreme Court.

Basically saying that unless a jury says you are guilty you are innocent. One thing checkpoints do is make everyperson Guilty before
Innocent.
Well, not quite...Since most Courts will uphold the UCC or the Admiralty Court
before they uphold the Constitution. The real reason they do
this
legally is, if your name on the Birth Certificate is all capital letters (which makes you an "item of inventory" as well as a State
Citizen) & you have a Social Security card (which makes you a federal citizen as well as a State Citizen), then you fall under UCC jurisdiction or
Admiralty Court jurisdiction more firmly than under Constitutional jurisdiction.
This is why, when the judge asks you for your plea, he states it as, "guilty or not guilty." But if you can successfully retain your
Constitutional Rights by invoking the UCC remedies & recourses, then you can make your plea as "innocent or guilty" instead of "guilty or
not guilty" & there's not a damn thing the judge can say against that once you've explained
how your Rights were retained.
I think of it like, if the saying is, "a lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client" is true only so far as your "client" has to
prove that he's not a fool before he can get real justice.

If they choose not to listen to our wishes or demands we will replace them and if they refuse to leave we reserve our right to implement our 2nd
amendment. Our right to have guns, is there for when our representatives no longer represent us.
In my opinion, apparently
your opinion & in
Charlton Heston's opinion too,
the 2nd Amendment is the single most important Right that we have. Without the Right to Keep & Bear Arms, we have no method to defend any other Rights
at all.
BTW, Don't go by my word alone. I also urge you to check it out with a lawyer, all I've said in my various posts here, mentioning everything about
the registration, licensing & UCC codes...Most lawyers will provide a first-consultation for free.
