What is Sovereign Citizenship? Sovereign Citizenship is the status held by our forefathers. George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and everyone else who won their freedom from the British Empire had this status. It was and is the birthright of all Americans, and we are generous in extending this most important right to foreign-born persons through the naturalization laws. With this status, our unalienable rights of life, liberty, and property can not be infringed.

What does it mean to be a Sovereign Citizen? The word “sovereign” is defined in the 6th edition of Black’s Law Dictionary, published in 1990, as being, “A person, body, or state in which independent authority is vested; a chief ruler with supreme power; a king or other ruler in a monarchy.” Prior to the War for American Independence, the British king was the sovereign and the American people were his subjects. The war’s outcome changed all this. For the first and only time in recorded history, the people were recognized as being the true sovereigns.

It will be sufficient to observe briefly, that the sovereignties in Europe, and particularly in England, exist on feudal principles. That system considers the prince as the sovereign, and the people as his subjects; it regards his person as the object of allegiance… No such ideas obtain here; at the revolution, the sovereignty devolved on the people; and they are truly the sovereigns of the country, but they are sovereigns without subjects… and have none to govern but themselves…

Each individual, at least so far as respects his unalienable rights, is his own sovereign. These rights weren’t given to any government. In fact, they can’t be. Perhaps you can give up all of your rights, if you so choose, but who has the power to give your rights up for you? In America, no one can, because we’re all equal.

In American this principle of popular sovereign is recognized by all our governments - local, state and federal. When the states became independent, the state governments were formed, all of them based on the Authority of the People, and not the will of one man or a small body of men.

The federal government as we know it today was created in 1789 when the federal constitution went into effect. The Constitution established something previously unknown in America, Citizenship of the United States.

Thus a Sovereign Citizen of a State is, by the federal Constitution, made a Citizen of the United States. This means that a Citizen of any one of the states is considered and treated as being a Citizen of all of them. The phrase “Citizen of the United States” does not refer to a separate class of citizenship. Similarly a Citizen of Rome, no matter where he resided, had all the rights and freedoms attendant to one who resided in Rome.

This brings us to what are considered as being the rights inherent in Citizenship in America:

When men enter into a State they yield a part of their absolute rights, or natural liberty, for political or civil liberty, which is none other than natural liberty restrained by human laws, so far as is necessary and expedient for the general advantage of the public. The rights of enjoying and defending life and liberty, of acquiring and protecting reputation and property, and, in general, of attaining objects suitable to their condition, without injury to another, are the rights of a Citizen; and all men by nature have them. Attendant with these rights is the responsibility for maintaining these same rights for all other Citizens, the Defense of Liberty.

Unfortunately, as a result of the citizenry not being attentive to the machinations, fraud and deceit of the politicians and bankers, the government of the United States (and indeed of most, if not all, countries of the world today) has once again devolved to a feudal system as a result of imposition of feudal law, Roman Law, known today as Admiralty or Martial Law, where the inherent rights of the Sovereign Citizen are not recognized as such, but as privileges granted by the “Ruling Class”.

The deceit of the politicians and banker have gradually imposed statutory laws and regulations which have in effect suspended the Constitution for the United States. It is in defense of the Constitution and the Sovereign rights of all Men that the Militias are instituted, for the very same reasons that Jesus was motivated to speak out in defense of the inherent rights of All Mankind. It is the essence of the Great Commandment, Love your God with all your mind and body and soul, and love your neighbor as yourself.”
