WANTED, Legislators dedicated to

Fulfilling the Spirit & Intent of our Texas Constitution

INFORMED CITIZENS of Texas is asking for legislators to take action to fulfill the promise of Liberty and Justice intended by our Texas Constitution. We are looking for Senators and Representatives to author & sponsor the following Acts, to be titled:

1.     The Restitution to for Wrongful Imprisonment Act

Resolved:

Ø      Whereas the Right to Restitution for the victim of a Wrongful Imprisonment at the hands of government entities operating on our Land of Texas is a god-given, natural, Right among the certain inherent and inalienable Rights referred to in our Texas and US Declarations of Independence;

Ø      Whereas a founder of our State of Texas, Stephen F. Austin, was a victim of Wrongful Imprisonment by the State of Mexico;

Ø      Whereas the spirit of Liberty and Justice behind our US and Texas Constitution requires it;

We, the members of the 81^st Legislature by this Act provide additional security for the Right to recover private property, personal and real, tangible and intangible, taken, damaged, and destroyed by a wrongful imprisonment at the hands of our State of Texas or its subunits of government.  

This act will provide additional security for this Right our Texas Constitution intended to secure in various provisions of Article 1, our Texas Bill of Individual and Citizen Rights, and by Section 51-c of Article 3, from violation by the Judicial Department of our State. This act will protect the Individual and Citizen from malfeasance Judicial and/or Executive Officials that might, otherwise, deprive the Citizen of Texas, the Individual member of people of Texas / public, of this god-given, natural, common-law, Right. 

The Right to Restitution for a Wrongful Imprisonment is an absolute, god-given, natural, common-law, fundamental, essential, substantive Right of every citizen of Texas. There is no greater threat to public safety that a State that is free to imprison its citizens with impunity. If there is no compensation for the citizen wrongfully imprisoned by the State, then there is no Liberty for ANY citizen of the State.

PRIVATE PROPERTY RIGHT. Compensation for a Wrongful Imprisonment is a private property Right. A human comes into this world endowed by god with ownership of only two pieces of property. Their body (often referred to as their person) and their time. If the STATE (meaning government) can wrongfully take a person and their time, without compensation for the wrong, then the citizens of the State have been reduced to abject slavery. They have become the property of the State, and its Actors.

What is a wrongful imprisonment? Obviously, it is the imprisonment of a person for an offense for which they are not guilty of an offense stipulated in  law as a criminal offense. Some who pretend to serve us, and receive regular compensation from our taxes, are of the opinion every citizen of Texas is inherently guilty while those with a title of employment in our government are above reproach, incapable of doing any wrong. Their opinion is invalid and contrary to the Law of our Land of Texas.
