    Suing Your Federal Government for Civil Rights Violations


    On the occasion of the 200th anniversary of the Bill Of Rights, many attorneys may not realize that these rights each contain within them an intrinsic enabling authority for the purpose of redressing violations of these rights by those federal employees entrusted to uphold and protect them.
    It is worth remembering that the authors of the Bill Of Rights were heavily influenced by Anglo-Saxon legal theorists such as Sir William Blackstone, who declared that there were "three absolute rights ... the right of personal security, the right of personal liberty and the right of personal property. [1] Blackstone believed the principal aim of society is to protect individuals in the enjoyment of these absolute rights which were vested in them by the immutable laws of nature. [2]

    cadet. We all know you are angry, and we all feel just about the same way.

    Fact is. The Constitution IS STILL in effect.

    Before anyone can go before the Supreme Court to argue any case.
    They must first have something they can prove...has happened.
    Seems like SCOTUS has no reason to defend anyone Defending the Constitution.

    THAT IS....after all. THEIR JOB.
    I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
    So, this is for them.

    I'm just sayin, it's about time someone sued the federal gov't on behalf of the founding fathers.
    They need to be shown that their breaking the laws set upon them.

    We agree with you, and would also like to see that take place. BUT...the big problem is.

    When you say SUE the Federal Gov't.

    You must first remember WHO you, and WE THE PEOPLE would be SUING.

    Seems like it would be a case of SUING ourselves since we elect those we SHOULD be suing.
