You cannot have a legal conflict unless a minimum of two parties are involved. The two parties involved for the purposes of this discussion are patriots who support the country and the federal government which has usurped power.
For clarification, we have to define some terminology and principles:
A person who loves and strongly supports or fights for his or her country.
The crime of saying, writing, or doing something that encourages people to disobey their government.
18 U.S. Code § 2384 – Seditious conspiracy
If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow, put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.
IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
…
And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.
Note that the name of the country in the Declaration of Independence is “united” instead of “United”.
A set of rules inherent in human behavior and human reasoning that governs human conduct. Natural law is preexisting and is not created in courts by judges. Philosophers and theologians throughout history have differed in their interpretations of natural law, but in theory, natural law should be the same throughout time and across the world because it is based on human nature, not on culture or customs.

The conflict that has arisen is clear: patriots versus government. Patriots who used their first amendment right to petition the government for a redress of government abuse have been arrested and denied bail for protests at the Bundy Ranch, Sugar Pine Mine and Malheur Wildlife Refuge. What is the responsibility of a patriot whose country has been usurped by a federal government? The government of the United States of America is not representing the people, the country or following the Constitution. They have replaced the rule of law with a two-tiered judicial system based on race, money and political class. The founding principle that all men are created equal is no longer true. What are our rights guaranteed under natural law:
Natural law and natural rights follow from the nature of man and the world. We have the right to defend ourselves and our property, because of the kind of animals that we are. True law derives from this right, not from the arbitrary power of the omnipotent state.
The reasons our forefathers declared their independence from tyranny are now in place at a larger scale. Our duty is the same as their duty: the freedom of our children is more important than a government. But I would like to ask a different question: how would you expect a tyrannical government to act? The federal government has:
- Enacted taxation and regulations without representation that account for over 50% of the fruits of our labor. This mainly applies to the second class tier of people who work to support the welfare/workfare state and the political elite.
- The government’s political elite is exempt from the law. Hillary Clinton’s email treason, Fast and Furious, Eric Holder’s selective enforcement of law based on race and the illegal ratification of the Affordable Health Care Act are only a few examples.
- Ignored the Bill of Rights: the illegal spying on the people by the NSA continues without any discussion in any of the three branches of the federal government is only one example.
- People are selectively targeted by the government. The IRS scandal and the murder of LaVoy Finicum are only two examples which have had no consequences.
- Usurped power from the States as guaranteed under the Constitution. Immigration and the importation of “refugees” without background checks are bankrupting our schools and local governments regardless of State laws.
A government that recognizes it has broken the compact of the Constitution with the people will act exactly as it has: it classifies patriots as domestic terrorists.
But a list of grievances will not cause a patriot to act. Only Sacred Honor and moral conviction will force an individual to recognize the consequences of tyranny. The choice is simple: we can either stand up and fight to regain our Liberty or bear the heavy chains of tyranny.
And yes, this qualities as sedition.

You might think that the most courageous thing Matt Bracken’s ever done is taking a SEAL team to Beirut, Lebanon in 1983, the same year of the Marine Barracks bombings… but you’d be wrong. Bracken is standing up as a bulwark for Liberty in the face of growing danger to those who speak out against the regime.
