Anti-tax advocates out in force
Couple's trial has attracted their notice

David Baker has read the entire internal revenue code. Twice. The Auburn, Mass., man, who drove to Concord several times to attend Ed and Elaine Brown's tax evasion trial, said that he's spent more than 1,000 hours poring over title 26 of the federal code, searching for the provision that requires him to pay taxes.
"You will not see a law making anyone liable for these taxes," he said last week in the federal courthouse.
Baker was just one of a rotating cast of supporters who filled one side of the visitors' benches in the Browns' courtroom. About a dozen friends and sympathizers came to court each day, whispering commentary during the testimony, and gathering at pulled-together tables for lunchtime strategy sessions at Remy's, the restaurant across from the courthouse. They came from different places, and many did not know each other before the trial began, but most said they were there because they believed the Browns' legal arguments and wanted to help them make their defense.
"That's why I'm here," Michael Famolare of Deering said to another supporter early in the trial. "I know I'll have my time."
On Thursday, a jury found the Browns guilty of every crime they had been charged with, including tax evasion, conspiracy to defraud the federal government, failing to withhold employment taxes and disguising large financial transactions to avoid reporting requirements. After the verdict came down, Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Morse said he hoped the outcome would send a strong message to those who might adopt the Browns' views.

"The arguments they put forth have been routinely dismissed," Morse said yesterday. "The government is going to prosecute people who do not pay their taxes."
But in interviews with several court regulars, not one said that his personal beliefs were swayed by the outcome of the trial. Most felt that the Browns were convicted because of unfair trial conditions imposed by the judge, not because their legal position was incorrect. Others said that the Browns were right in their basic view that tax laws are bogus but made tactical mistakes in their courtroom arguments that cost them an acquittal.
"This was not a particularly good representation of someone who was educated at defending themselves in a courtroom," said Greg Lidland, who came to court for one day. "But be that as it may, it was also not a good representation of a true and fair trial."
For most of the trial, the Browns represented themselves with the help of Michael Avery, a Florida man who runs a service called Outlaws Legal Service. (Judge McAuliffe referred to Avery as their paralegal.) But after neither Brown appeared in court Jan. 12, the couple chose different courses. Elaine Brown returned to court Tuesday and accepted the assistance of a public defender. Ed Brown, who said he distrusts all attorneys, holed up in his Plainfield home and refused to participate in the remainder of the trial.
In his rulings on pretrial motions and his statements from the bench, Judge Steven McAuliffe made clear that he agreed with few of the Browns' legal arguments. He said that he believed the Browns' best opportunity for a defense lay in convincing the jury that they honestly misunderstood the tax laws. McAuliffe allowed some discussion of the Browns' tax views into court, but he would not allow the jury to consider the question of whether the tax laws were valid. His rulings prevented the Browns from entering documents into evidence or asking many questions challenging the content and meaning of tax laws.
McAuliffe ruled against nearly 40 pretrial motions filed by the Browns, some of which challenged the jurisdiction of the federal court, the legitimacy of the grand jury indictments and the impartiality of the judge, since he's a federal employee. In court filings, the Browns also demanded documents from the government, including evidence of the plaintiff in their criminal case and the home addresses and social security numbers of grand jury members.
Many Brown supporters pointed to this paper trail, often erroneously saying that the judge had denied "all 42" motions, as evidence that the trial had been rigged.
"You'd think we lived in Somalia or something like that," said Dennis Mounce of Manchester, who said he was distressed by the judge's rulings. "You wouldn't think that would happen in New Hampshire."
Several disgruntled trial attendees plan to meet next week to draft a complaint about McAuliffe for the judicial ethics panel.
But while the Browns' supporters said they were upset about the trial's outcome, most said that the judge's behavior was what they had expected.
"I wanted to see just how the federal courts are in cahoots with the Internal Revenue Service," said Christopher Gronski of Wolfeboro. Gronski is the New Hampshire state coordinator for We The People, a national group that has been challenging the income tax through lawsuits and public confrontations with IRS officials. "I knew the condition of the courts in this country."
Gronski also attended to teach a lesson to his 14-year-old daughter, Rebecca. She sat quietly by his side for two days of testimony, wearing a button reading "No, you can't have my rights. I'm still using them." Gronski home schools his children and expects Rebecca to write a report on her experience.
"She gets pretty verbal about the injustice that she sees there," he said.
Bernie Bastian, a close friend of Ed Brown's, who was in court every day of the trial, said he was upset by the judge's decisions but not surprised. His study of similar trials had shown him that defendants who don't agree with the standard interpretation of the tax code often lose.
"I did expect it going in," he said. "I mean, the government doesn't want anyone to know this, so they're bound to suppress all the evidence they can."
But Bastian, who said he doesn't pay federal income taxes himself, said the knowledge that he might be prosecuted and convicted for similar crimes doesn't give him pause.
"I believe in God and I believe when I get there he's going to be the judge of judges," he said. "If everybody's jumping off a bridge, that's not going to make me."
Scott Wells of Concord has been sending letters to the IRS in place of tax returns for several years. He said that he has his doubts about the treatment he'd receive if he was brought into federal court. But he also said that he was dismayed by some of the strategies employed by the Browns. He has his documents in order and his Supreme Court precedents at the ready, he said, should his time come.
"I'm not scared," Wells said. "And I don't know if that's just because I'm very confident in my methods or extremely foolish. Time will tell."

MESSAGE FROM ED BROWN

From: Ed Brown
Date: Feb 1, 2007 10:33 AM

Something very important is going on here.
Sure it starts with my tax case but lets look at the big picture here.
I am providing a place for us to make a difference, for the people, for this country!

I even offered to pay the taxes just so they would leave me alone, but no,...
They took my guns (before ever being convicted of anything)
Took my wife and court ordered her away from me.
They now want much more money then they say I owe.
Want my house.
And will again offensively attack me and take my life as well as those around me here now unless we have enough people to make a difference!

We may never have another chance!
I need people here Now!

Some ready for a shootout

All of a sudden, Ed Brown has a lot of friends

His anti-tax stance attracts wide support

By Margot Sanger-Katz
Monitor staff

January 22. 2007 8:00AM

Ed Brown parted ways with his wife last week when he decided not to join her for the conclusion of their federal tax evasion trial. But after barricading himself in his fortified Plainfield home and refusing to surrender to authorities, Brown has amassed a new and growing group of friends who support his decision to stand up to government authority.

Since Brown and his wife were convicted last week, his case has captured the attention of a variety of fringe groups, including Gandhi-admiring protesters who have limited their involvement to building bonfires and waving signs and armed militia members anxious for confrontation. Some appreciate Brown's stand against the federal income tax, some his pointed criticism of the federal courts, and others his willingness to die for his cause. Whatever their reasons, they've all congregated at the sprawling fortress Brown calls home, turning it into a libertarian carnival with an uncertain ending.

"Everybody has their own place on that spectrum," said Dave Ridley of Keene, who has spent several days in Plainfield and positions himself on the nonviolent end. Ridley said he owns a gun but locks it up at home before going to Brown's. "Of course, any group of libertarians has a thousand different opinions."

When news of Brown's decision began circulating on talk radio shows and militia-oriented blogs earlier this week, journalists at the Brown homestead outnumbered supporters. As Brown declared that Plainfield might become another Waco, three strangers huddled in his heated garage and emphasized that they had no interest in shooting anyone.

But as word has spread and the weekend freed many from workday obligations, the number of those camping at the Brown home has swelled. Estimates were difficult to obtain because supporters were spread throughout the house, sleeping in shifts. And some, Brown said, were hidden outside. But several visitors estimated that the number fluctuated between 15 and 30 this weekend.

That group includes one woman who drove an hour to Plainfield and brought Brown a bottle of ginger ale, a carload of young libertarians from Keene and the New York leader of a national anti-tax organization with thousands of members.

Brown said he's been moved by the number and enthusiasm of the supporters he's met since deciding to hole up at home.

"This situation is exploding so fast in this nation and internationally that the Illuminati around the world are becoming very aware," Brown said, referring to a rumored secret society that he believes has infiltrated the highest levels of the world's governments.

Brown and his wife, Elaine, were convicted Thursday of 20 felonies related to the couple's refusal to pay income taxes since 1996. They will be sentenced in April. Elaine Brown, who is cooperating with authorities, has been prohibited from returning to the house. On Friday, the court unsealed a bench warrant for Ed Brown's arrest.

Brown said he's prepared to wait as long as it takes. His home, with its solar panels and private well, was designed to function "off the grid." Brown said he has enough food to last several months, and those provisions are replenished daily as supporters come and go, bringing snacks and takeout dinners with them.

Despite the threat of looming violence, Brown's kitchen was abuzz with activity yesterday afternoon. Young children built forts from the kindling stacked beside his woodstove. Activists shared newsletters on how to avoid paying property taxes and why it's a bad idea to register to vote. Men munched on Doritos, and women poured their children glasses of orange juice. Rob Jacobs of Allenstown prepared to be sworn into the Constitution Rangers of the Continental Congress of 1777, a group charged with holding law enforcement officials accountable to the Constitution.

Over the course of the week, Brown has said repeatedly that he would rather die than submit to federal jurisdiction and that he's readying himself for an armed standoff when the marshals come to arrest him.

But U.S. Marshal Stephen Monier has said his office has no intention of beginning a violent confrontation. Monier said that his officers have been communicating regularly with Brown in hopes of reaching a peaceful resolution.

Several friends and bloggers have been calling for a bloody conclusion to the situation. William Miller, a friend and fellow Constitution Ranger, sent an e-mail last weekend demanding the hanging of the federal judge and prosecutor who worked on Brown's case - and the martyrdom of Brown himself.

"Ed Brown, my friend and mentor, for patriotic reasons, is now worth more to me, and to what I stand for, dead, than alive," Miller wrote.

Brown said that Miller has clarified his position with the marshals and that he does not personally endorse any violence toward court officials. But Miller is not the only Brown supporter making violent proclamations.

Supporters at Brown's home said the only violence they anticipated was defensive, but several said that they see a shootout as an inevitability.

"There's been violence throughout our history, and it's sometimes what it takes to right the wrongs." said Bernie Bastian, a close friend of Brown who has been at his side since the trial ended. "It's a shame that men can't right the wrongs without resorting to it."

Other visitors said they were visiting Brown to lend moral support but did not plan to participate in any gun battle. Tim and Marylisa Logsdon spent the weekend at the house with their three young children. Tim Logsdon said he did not feel he was putting his family in any danger.

"The building is pretty secure," he said. "And the feds have promised that they won't raid."

Brown said he was ambivalent about the prospect of violence. He'd prefer a peaceful resolution, he said, but feels that there are few options available to him.

"I would like to see this whole thing go away," he said. "But now's the time it's continuing to build."

Urgent: Ed Brown has "only just begun to fight!" The ongoing standoff

Posted by: "jsk" jsk@kingcon.com Wed Jan 24, 2007 5:45 pm (PST) Dear friends:

There is much yet to come in the Ed Brown "standoff". I have promised
previously that when I had more time I would give you all an update, and so
I am.

Ed knows that Jackie and I have taken great risk to film him and get the
word out, and that I'm doing so not because I want to self-promote, but
co-promote. That is, his situation is giving my book and me more exposure,
but the reverse is also true - I have numerous upcoming media events related
to my book that were arranged before this situation started, in which I will
tie in to Ed's situation, and also Aaron Russo's film.

But there is a much deeper co-promotion going on. Ed was being portrayed in
the media as a crazy man. In fact, this morning at a local bank when I
mentioned his case the woman there waved her hand and said - that guy's
crazy. Well, some sheeple are so afraid of this government that they think
anything like free speech is crazy. But moreover, this woman formed her
views from watching Channel 3 news last night, which apparently did not
present Ed in a flattering light.

And there is an even deeper co-promotion yet, and that is what all you folks
are doing. We are all co-promoting, for we represent We the People, not We
the Sheeple! Every American has a stake in this matter, whether they see it
yet or not. With God's blessings, they will. Thus we are all co-promoting.

The real story here is that the Internet is replacing the media as a
reliable source of information, and we have to get that story out, to
convert more sheeple to patriots. Ed knows I hold religious beliefs which
prohibit my taking guns to his home over money, and that if the government
came to me for money then I would give them whatever they wanted. No offense
to those who feel differently - this is a debate for another day. But Ed
also knows I respect his freedom to choose his own faith, and his own death,
and that's why he respects my view. I am well armed for my family's defense,
but in this fight my weapon is the pen. Ed feels God brought us together to
do this thing, and we don't fully understand God's plan, but we trust Him
and are filled with joy to be humbly entrusted with this task. But many of
you are also part of this plan, and you know it! Thus we are all
co-promoting, brothers and sisters..Let us not be divided over little
things, or over means.

You must all spread Ed's story and the press coverage, because that is the
real story. Ed trusts me to carry his message, but he is trusting you also.
My life and family are in jeopardy also, and so I too am trusting you.
Please don't let this flame die.

The national media are cooling on this story, presumably because the
government does not want the kind of flashpoint attention that Ed is now
receiving. But we must not let it cool. This will soon be a news story not
about Ed, but about a referendum on an overly powerful federal government
which has already swept away our constitutional rights, and which has evil
plans in store for us. This must be what unites us all in a cause much
greater than a rich guy in New Hampshire with a gun, or a poor couple from
Vermont with a camera. Make no mistake - I more than most of you am keenly
aware of how grave Ed's situation is, and that he is likely to be killed. It
is because of that gravity that I know also that the best way to prolong or
save Ed's life is to humanize him before they kill him, not afterwards, when
he can no longer speak or draw attention to his (our) cause.

Over the weekend I told Ed I'd be coming on Tuesday to visit again, though I
was actually planning to visit on Monday, which we did. Jackie and I filmed
Ed for several hours, including all of the footage taken by Channel 3. We
interviewed that reporter: when he arrived, he told me he was very nervous.
I said "Do you have a gun?" Shocked, he exclaimed "No!" I said "Then you
have absolutely no reason to be afraid". After he interviewed Ed, I
interviewed him, and asked him whether he feared Ed. Completely relaxed, he
answered honestly "No, and it's been a long time since I've seen two gun. We
also filmed Ed's complete conversation with his wife Elaine when she called
to tell him she had been informed that the big guys were on their way from
Washington, D.C. We then filmed Ed as he called many of you, including his
call to Rick Stanley.

I've heard some express that they were afraid to go to Ed's home. Fear of
the federal government is what gives that government power. I had no fear at
all, nor did my wife, for if this is God's plan for our deaths, so be it. If
you don't want to bring a gun (which would likely be aiding and abetting
under federal law: whether "legal" or not), then how can you possibly be so
cowardly as to not go without one? This is a chance to look in the mirror,
and for such people to consider where they will stand when the real
fireworks begin, probably sometime soon. Such fear has no place in this, and
will not serve anything but to enslave you. Imagine how our founding fathers
felt, with no health or homeowners' insurance, and when if they were killed
their wives and children often could not run the farm, etc, without them. We
the People do not fear our servant government: it is this runaway government
which must fear the wrath of an awakened We the People.

And speaking of colonial times, consider how our forefathers advanced their
cause - on horseback, with wax-stamped envelopes and printing presses that
printed one page at a time. Thomas Paine printed his first pamphlet (Common
Sense, I believe) with his own money: he was a model for my own endeavor,
which I similarly printed for people to read with my own money. And now I'm
so broke I am borrowing money to work on this project. I'm not complaining -
Ed's willing to risk everything he has, and I already risked it, with joy.
For we both know that money will not protect us from tyranny, and that we
will just lose everything anyway if we don't stand now. To paraphrase the
New Testament (the book of John): he who tries to save his money will lose
it. Soon the full meaning of that Scriptural gift will be tested - He who
tries to save his own life will lose it. Without God we have nothing, so
what are we willing to give back? As with our government, who is the servant
and who is the master? God is my guide, and it is He who I trust and fear
(respect, in awe).

So Jackie and I are walking this walk, with Ed and with all of you. We have
about six hours of video of Ed Brown the man, and what he stands for. Do you
want to see it? The station that allowed me to use their camera is not
willing to be further involved, for good reason and not cowardice: I must
not ask them to go beyond what their legal purposes are, or many jobs and a
truly independent news medium will possibly be jeopardized. I fully respect
this. I have hidden the tapes securely, but the government does not want
them out. I mean, believe me, the government really does not want them out!
Now who amongst you will stand with me and Jackie, with the power of the
pen, to carry this further? Will we stand alone and go down without the
public seeing these videos? Imagine if the Weavers had been filmed through
their ordeal.. Ed is not even charged with violent crime, or with gun
violations. No one from the government has been shot at, let alone killed.
Don't you think they will come for me soon? I only fear that my work will be
left unfinished - I fear nothing else, for this is my task, and my wife (God
bless her and protect her!) shares this passion. You see, if we get more of
this out, we may be able to save Ed's life, and he knows this. He wouldn't
talk with me about strategy to do this. He just kept saying: "Naw, that's
your thing. I'm doing my thing! People don't seem to understand - I'm all
right with the Father." But it's not just about saving Ed's life, or my and
my family's freedom from the threat of prison - it's about your lives, and
the sheeple's lives. Many of us know this. Rick Stanley takes enormous risk
advising people to bring arms in peaceful defense to N.H. Don't you think he
and his wife are aware of the risks, after all he's been through? Rick and I
differ on some points (because I haven't had time yet to straighten him out!
:-)), but we are brothers in mutual respect who will follow our own paths

I've sent a plea to the guys and gals at Loose Change, and am awaiting a
response. Perhaps you folks will e-mail or phone them
(publicity@loosechan ge911.com; phone # (607) 267-4456) or both, and
encourage them to at least let me bring them the film and encode it before
it's lost, taken or damaged. I await their call anxiously, so that I may
complete my task. You can fire off e-mails even if you don't fire guns,
can't you? Do you want to see what Ed Brown has to say about torture and
depleted uranium, about George W. Bush and the use of the U.S. Military
against American civilians? Ed studies the law - he's got a more complete
law library than most lawyers. He knows that the John Warner National
Defense Authorization Act of 2007, passed with the cowardly assistance of
"our" Democrats in Congress, allows George W. Bush to send National Guard
troops from anywhere in the country to N.H. without state consent, to
assault people like Ed and those who are there with him. Do you want to hear
him say so, so that his voice will carry to others, even the sheeple? For
this government has not passed these laws with no intention of using them,
my countrymen! Look it up on the government's web site: www.senate.gov
<http://www.senate. gov/> . This is our right, isn't it, Americans? To look
at the laws and talk about them? They snuck these and other laws into
massive military spending bills so we wouldn't notice, and they are counting
on the sheeple staying dumb. But Ed noticed, and I noticed, and you have
noticed. How shall we spread the word? What if Paul Revere had owned a
laptop?

Arise, We the People! Don't let this be another tale about the past, unless
it is a glorious one! I am poor in wealth and in health, and I give my
widow's two cents to you now. I'm not a member of many groups, I'm limited
in time (and technical competence), and I need help NOW! Ride, Paul Reveres:
it's not just a story anymore. It's the modern revolution. If Loose Change
declines my approach, who out there will help me? I have guns, all unloaded,
for I will not resist, or otherwise give this government cause to discredit
me and thus you. Ed and Jackie and I are at the Alamo. (Remember the Alamo?
:-)). I'm only afraid of my own potential for failure, but I know that you,
and God, will not fail me.

Just help me get out Ed's story, would you, countrymen? Where are We the
People?

Your humble servant, watching at the wall, in Christ,

Cancer news from Johns Hopkins?Hospital

My wife went through breast cancer in April two years ago.
This is the same thing her oncologist told her.??It is a good summary, so I will pass it on.

Cancer updates -- Johns Hopkins -- Cancer News from Johns Hopkins:

1.????? No plastic containers in micro.

2.????? No water bottles in freezer.

3.????? No plastic wrap in microwave.

Johns Hopkins has recently sent this out in its newsletters.
This information is being circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical Center as well.
Dioxin chemicals cause cancer, especially breast cancer.
Dioxins are highly poisonous to the cells of our bodies. Don't freeze your plastic bottles with water in them as this releases dioxins from the plastic.

Recently, Dr. Edward Fujimoto, Wellness Program Manager at Castle Hospital, was on a TV program to explain this health hazard. He talked about dioxins and how bad they are for us. He said that we should not be heating our food in the microwave using plastic containers. This especially applies to foods that contain fat. He said that the combination of fat, high heat, and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately into

Instead, he recommends using glass, such as Corning Ware, Pyrex or ceramic containers for heating food. You get the same results, only without the dioxin.

So such things as frozen dinners, instant raman noodles and soups, etc., should be removed from the container and heated in something else.

Paper isn't bad but you don't know what is in the paper. It's just safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc. He reminded us that a while ago some of the fast food restaurants moved away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem is one of the reasons. Also, he pointed out that plastic wrap, such as Saran, is just as dangerous when placed over?foods to be cooked in the microwave. As the food is nuked, the high heat causes poisonous toxins to actually melt out of the plastic wrap and drip into the food.

Cover food with a paper towel instead. This is an article that should be sent to anyone important in your life

Sweers 1 Dallas 43, Treaty of Commerce 8 Stat 116, The Society for Propagating the Gospel, &c. V. New Haven 8 Wheat 464, Treaty of Peace 8 Stat 80, IRS Publication 6209, Articles of Association October 20, 1774.)

23. Britain is owned by the Vatican. (Treaty of 1213) [????]

24. The Pope can abolish any law in the United States. (Elements of Ecclesiastical Law Vol.1 53-54) [????]

25. A 1040 form is for tribute paid to Britain. (IRS Publication 6209)

34. Everything in the "United States" is For Sale: roads, bridges, schools, hospitals, water, prisons airports etc. I wonder who bought Klamath lake. Did anyone take the time to check? (Executive Order 12803)

35. We are Human capital. (Executive Order 13037)

36. The UN has financed the operations of the United States government for over 50 years and now owns every man, women and child in America. [COME AND TAKE ME!] The UN also holds all of the Land in America in Fee Simple. *

37. The good news is we don't have to fulfill "our" fictitious obligations. You can discharge a fictitious obligation with another's fictitious obligation. *

38. The depression and World War II were a total farce. The United States and various other companies were making loans to others all over the World during the Depression. The building of Germanys infrastructure in the 1930's including the Railroads was financed by the United States. That way those who call themselves "Kings," "Prime Ministers," and "Fuher,"etc could sit back and play a game of chess using real people. Think of all of the Americans, Germans etc. who gave their lives thinking they were defending their Countries which didn't even exist. The millions of innocent people who died for nothing. Isn't it obvious why Switzerland is never involved in these fiascoes? That is where the "Bank of International Settlements" is located. Wars are manufactured to keep your eye off the ball. You have to have an enemy to keep the illusion of "Government" in place. *

39. The "United States" [THE CORPORATION] did not declare Independence from Great Britain or King George. *

40. Guess who owns the UN?

* Caveat Redemptor - Verify for yourself
