The petition


As American citizens, we declare that no US armed forces unit has the right to subdue us, imprison us, or take our property, in keeping with the spirit and letter of the US Constitution, including the Amendments, and especially the Posse Comitatus Act, a United States federal law (18 U.S.C. § 1385).

We urge our representatives in Congress to pass emergency legislation reasserting Posse Comitatus and to strip the President, George W. Bush, of rights he claimed in his 'signing note' appended to HR5122 (also known as the John Warner Defense Authorization Act) on January 28, 2008).

We assert that under no circumstances should US armed forces be used against US civilians, including and not limited to crowd control or to put down insurgency.

We urge every armed force personnel to refuse to obey orders if directed to act against US citizens. We the people will collect funds for such infantry and officer's legal defense and will hold them as heroes and defenders of freedom for any time served in the defense of the US constitution.

When President Bush swore to uphold and defend the US Constitution, he agreed that he would be subject to two years' time in prison for any use of US Armed Forces personnel against US citizenry. It's time for even more toughly worded legislation to protect the people of the United States from domestic tyranny.
