Wilcock Shrout Interview Notes – Part III

This entry is part 3 of 3 in the series Wilcock Shrout Interview

Winston Shrout, in his interview with David Wilcock, made these suggestions for further study into Admiralty Law.

  • Google ‘Law Merchant Law’
  • Search for info on the history of the city of London and the Knights Templar banking operations
  • Google UCC and Admiralty Law

Admiralty law is an art form rather than a step-by-step system to follow.

Negotiable Instruments is the first thing Winston studied. Then he backtracked to the Negotiable Instruments Act,

He also studied:

  • Banking
  • Gold Certificates
  • Checks

He said all U.S. courts are Admiralty courts because the U.S. is operating in Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

All lawsuits are suing THINGS not people.

Names in all caps means one of 3 things:

  • A US Vessel,
  • a corporation,
  • or a dead person, as is easily seen by a trip to your local cemetery

Suit in rem = suit in Admiralty. Attorneys then try to “drag it into equity” he said, but didn’t explain what that means.

There is a great deal of detailed background info on law in Part I of the interview that I am not going to attempt to reiterate and comment on.

As I re-listen to this interview, I am thinking that, if what Drake is telling us comes to pass, we really don’t need to know the nitty-gritty of how the liens work. Winston says they work, have worked for years, and I believe him.

Will they work as they should, remains to be seen, but I am optimistic.

That’s all for today. The following is a video from Jordan Maxwell, whom David mentions in the interview. Have a great weekend!

Limited government existed in America under the Articles of Confederation NOT the Constitution

When describing what the documents Drake is telling us all have been filed accomplish, David said:

What’s great about US Marshals is that they date all the way back to the original Republic, so their source of power PREDATES their conversion into a “Service” that supports the current, corporate form of government.

The reactivation of the Declaration of Independence reactivates not only the Republic, but any Lawful police-related offices that the Republic had on all levels – County, State, etc, including the US Marshals acting under the Organic Constitution.


So my understanding is that the paperwork to make the civilian-authorized removal of our “rogue” government lawful, equates to the “reactivation of the Declaration of Independence” and the Republic.

That begs the question, just how does this “reactivate the Republic” rather than the Confederacy, which came before the Republic? We had limited government before the Republic.

Limited government existed in America under the Articles of  Confederation, and expanded to what we have today because of the Constitutional Republic, and the lie that the Articles had been replaced.

Contrary to popular belief (thanks to public school) the Articles of Confederation are still positive law in the United States.

Think about it for a minute. You know that the Constitutional Convention of May 25, 1787 was held in secret, and  many of the participants were politicians, lawyers and Masons. Not saying all of the above are all bad…well, the Masons anyway are not all bad.

George Washington, great leader that he was, led the forces that began the destruction of the common law with the substitution of written government law. George Washington created a dictatorship by combining the office of head of State with the office of head of the government within the Constitution.

In other words, the Constitution is the document that allowed him to combine the two offices above, and create a dictatorship that we refer to as the Presidency.

Thanks to the creative wording of the Constitution, every President of the United States of America, including and since George Washington, has appointed himself to be President of the United States. Yes, these are 2 different offices (elected: POTUSA  and self-appointed: POTUS).

Here is one easy way to see this. Which President pays federal income taxes?  It can’t be the POTUSA, because income taxation would diminish his Compensation during the Period for which he was electedm and the POTUSA has constitutional protection from federal income taxation.

Yet every Spring the POTUS releases his 1040 Tax Returns.

What I am getting at here is that there is more to the Constitution than meets the eye. We should not revere it as perfection on paper, and we must open our minds to the idea that the Articles of Confederation is the existing Organic Law we ought to turn to, to keep government in check.

Because the Articles of Confederation is the document that restrained government so much that they had to deceive us all into thinking it had been replaced. It is, was, and always will be, one of the 4 organic Laws of the United States.

What is the Code of Hammurabi That Drake Mentions?

Ever curious, I decided to look into the Code of Hammurabi that Drake mentions as the basis of this action in his interview with David Wilcock. From their conversation it appears to be the basis of what we call Common Law.

With Common Law, if one were to steal something, the penalty was death. Yep. That would take care of celebrity shoplifting in short order, methinks!

More simply, Common Law is a framework for fairness, integrity and honesty. Do unto others…with a very sharp edge! I have some links to (mostly) free ebooks about common law in the sidebar for those inspired by what Drake said about taking it upon ourselves to get educated about the common law. This site also has a wealth of information: 1215.org

Here is a bit of what Wikipedia has to say about the Code of Hammurabi:

The Code of Hammurabi is the longest surviving text from the Old Babylonian period. The code has been seen as an early example of a fundamental law regulating a government — i.e., a primitive form of what is now known as a constitution. The code is also one of the earliest examples of the idea of presumption of innocence, and it also suggests that both the accused and accuser have the opportunity to provide evidence.

Not all of the laws are still legible upon the tablets and stones, and so I know of no book or website that lists them all. Not that I think it is necessary to read them all, to get the gist of this, lol!

As for Hammurabi himself:

Hammurabi was the sixth king of the first Babylonian Dynasty, and the first king of the Babylonian Empire. Hammurabi is known for the set of laws called Hammurabi’s Code, which is believed to be one of the first written codes of law in recorded history.

Below is a link to a free Kindle ebook that lists all of the Codes that are known, with an introduction by the translator who appears to be well regarded for his historical writings.

You can get a free Kindle Reading app for your PC, Mac or mobile device, and there are tons of free ebooks available daily. Well worth it.

Define Apostille, Apostillian – From Drake Interview with David Wilcock

In the interview between David Wilcock and Drake. Drake said about the documents filed:

DK: The Notary seals were challenged. Certain Secretary of State offices refused apostillian documentation, and a whole bunch of things.

I imagine many people have no idea what apostillian means, myself included, lol! So I gathered some info from Wikipedia and other sources. I did not find that exact usage for the word apostille.

What Information is Included in an Apostille?

The apostille itself is a stamp or printed form consisting of 10 numbered standard fields. On the top is the text APOSTILLE, under which the text Convention de La Haye du 5 octobre 1961 (English: Hague Convention of 5 October 1961) is placed. In the numbered fields the following information is added:

Country … [country name]
This public document
has been signed by … [name]
acting in the capacity of … [function]
bears the seal/stamp of … [authority]
certified
at … [location]
the … [date]
by … [name]
No … [apostille registration number]
Seal/stamp … [of the authority giving the apostille]
Signature … [signature of authority giving the apostille]

The information can be placed on the (back of the) document itself, or attached to the document as an allonge (a strip of paper attached to a negotiable instrument).

Eligible Documents

Four types of documents are mentioned in the convention:

  •     court documents
  •     administrative documents (e.g. civil status documents)
  •     notarial acts
  •     official certificates which are placed on documents signed by persons in their private capacity, such as official certificates recording the registration of a document or the fact that it was in existence on a certain date and official and notarial authentications of signatures.

Read more here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apostille_convention

And here: Hague Conference on Private International Law

The information I turned up all referred to using an Apostille to authenticate documents you want to use in a foreign country.

So in my layperson’s opinion, and because Drake didn’t spell it out at the 4th grade level:-) as far as Americans under the Declaration of Independence, and the still positive Organic Law, the Articles of Confederation are concerned the “United States” is a foreign country.

Please post corrections in the comments, if necessary.

Changes Are Imminent – Do Not Be Taken By Surprise – Good News For A Change!

 

David Wilcock Interview with Drake – March 28, 2012

Please listen to this interview between David Wilcock and “Drake” and spread it far and wide!

Things are going to change, but it won’t be a collapse or collection of the masses to ship off to FEMA camps. The powers that were are no longer running the show.

There will be mass arrests, that will likely cause people to freak out and think the end of the world is here, but they will be incorrect. It will be the good guys cleaning house, not the illuminati, not a new world order taking over.

Rest assured that a plan is in place, started in 1979, probably earlier, and is set to play out in the not too distant future. If you have been prepping for disaster, you may need your supplies as the disruption – though it is meant not be chaotic – may last up to 60 days.

Get informed now and then be the voice of reason among those you know. Please share this interview with your lists and contacts. It is important that as many people as possible know what is happening, to avoid mass panic:

There will be about a 24 hour “warning” before the mass arrests begin, for you to prepare for some short term shortages. It may or may not appear here at freedomsteps.com, so we suggest checking David Wilcock’s blog regularly: divinecosmos.com.

Peace.
