In light of the recent Nightline shows about the Waco disaster,
I recalled the manifesto of Linda Thompson, who has been at
the forefront of attempting to incite chaos in the wake of
that tragedy.
Linda Thompson is a very complex person. Her alliances and ties
are ephemeral, and many people who initially associated themselves
with her eventually disavowed any ties with her due to her
evasive answers.
Among her many associations has been one with Narconon.
The following is a copy of a post that I downloaded from the
Fidonet Controversy Conference in 1994.

Subj: AEN ALERT / MILITIA ALERT !
********** AEN ALERT ********** IMPORTANT ********** AEN ALERT *********
*********** COPY AND FORWARD THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY ***********
Every member of the United States House of Representatives and
Senate are this week being delivered an ultimatum that demands that each
of them personally take the initiative to revoke unconstitutional
legislation and initiate an inquiry into Waco. A copy of the Ultimatum
follows in the next message.
All MILITIA units will convene in Washington, D.C. the second full
week that the Congress is in session in September to enforce this
mandate and to deliver copies of the Declaration of Independence to the
White House.
All units will be armed and prepared to enforce this mandate. This
is exactly what it sounds like.
**NOTE: MILITIA UNITS MUST WEAR IDENTIFYING INSIGNIA AND BE ARMED.
If you are armed and wear a military insignia identifying you as a
member of a military unit, if captured, you must be treated as a
Prisoner of War, not as a criminal arrestee, by law.
We have five months to get in shape and be prepared to restore this
country's liberty. Mentally and physically, we must be ready, willing,
and able, to do the job.
I have personally signed the ultimatum to be delivered to Congress,
as John Hancock said, in handwriting so large that the King cannot
mistake my identity. No other persons are or will be identified,
however, please feel free to copy and issue the ultimatum to Congress
yourself.
A copy of the ultimatum follows in the next message.
Additionally, a signed Declaration of Independence will be delivered
to the White House on the day the militia convenes in Washington, D.C.
in September, very likely with millions of signatures.
Below the initial 100 signers' names which are affixed on the
original, we will attach every page of signatures obtained between now
and September. Please circulate the Declaration of Independence and
obtain signatures throughout the country through every means possible
and return to AJF, 3850 S. Emerson Ave., Suite E, Indianapolis, IN
46203.
We will be air-dropping this information throughout the country and
distributing it through churches, gun shows, etc. All national media
have been provided copies as well.
Please distribute all pages of the Militia Alert, Ultimatum, and
Declaration of Independence everywhere. Make thousands of copies. Put
them out in grocery stores, wherever you can think of.
More pilot volunteers, printers, and funding for the distribution of
the Declaration of Independence are needed.
Whether I am arrested or killed in the interim has no bearing on the
preparations of the militia units, the ultimatum, or the Declaration of
Independence throughout this country.
Proceed as planned, plan accordingly, and God bless us all.
Linda Thompson
Acting Adjutant General
UMUS, pursuant to
10 USC 311
Articles I and II, Bill of Rights, Constitution of the United States of
America
Additional information and updates will be posted on the American
Justice Federation voice mail line at 317-780-5200 beginning April 20,
1994. Leave a message if you can volunteer to help print these
documents, fly planes to airdrop literature, get the information on
radio or television, etc.
========================================================================
ORGANIZATION AND PURPOSE OF THE AMERICAN JUSTICE FEDERATION
1. The American Justice Federation (AJF) is a charitable and
educational organization dedicated to providing educational services to
the public concerning current issues of Constitutional law and
individual Constitutional rights.
2. As part of the educational services provided by AJF, the
Associated Electronic News (AEN) network, a computerized electronic news
network dedicated to providing a free-to-the-public public forum for
discussion of Constitutional rights issues, is operated and funded by
the AJF and all equipment for this service is provided by the AJF. The
AJF also publishes a newspaper, AMERICAN JUSTICE NEWS, distributed
nationally to subscribers, as part of its educational services and as a
source of fundraising. Presently, all staff and reporters are working
as volunteers, however, the AJF expects to hire staff reporters, editors
and distributors as funding becomes available.
3. As a charitable organization, the AJF screens cases for persons
who request assistance in securing Constitutionally guaranteed rights,
persons who may or may not be indigent but who cannot find adequate
legal representation or who cannot pay an attorney, such as defendants
in state and federal criminal law cases and Constitutional rights
actions. The AJF obtains attorneys who are willing to work pro bono or
for a reduced fee or to take cases which are solely on a contingency
basis, such as 42 USC 1988 actions, or civil rights actions which would
provide payment for legal services to the prevailing party under 42
U.S.C. 1988, and the AJF pays expenses, such as deposition and travel
expenses, for these cases.
4. The AJF obtains funding through private donations and grants which
(at such time as such donations and grants reach a level to facilitate
such payment) pay the salaries of staff and expenses of operation,
production of educational literature and speaker's programs and
expenses, and legal services for clients needing legal services who
otherwise cannot afford such services.

TO: Each member of the Unites States House of Representatives
and United States Senate
DATE: April 19, 1994
ULTIMATUM
WHEREAS, the federal government of the United States of America is
constrained by the law of the Unites States Constitution, the Supreme
law of this country, to limited jurisdiction, and limited power; and
WHEREAS, the federal government of the United States of America,
through unlawful Executive Orders, and through legislation passed
without quorum and without proper ratification or otherwise unlawfully
enacted under mere color of law by members of the legislative branch,
have usurped the Constitutional authority of the sovereign states and
sovereign citizens of this country, and laws which are unlawful and
unconstitutional have been enacted in voluminous number which have
outrageously exceeded the boundaries of law and decency; and
WHEREAS, the people of this country have been exploited and
subjugated to an unlawful authority by an unlawful system of loans from
a private banking institution known as the Federal Reserve, and been
forced, even at gunpoint, to submit to an unlawful federal income tax
which is not and never has been within the authority of the federal
government to enact or enforce, all to the benefit of private
individuals and corporations at the expense of the liberty, lives, and
property of the citizens of this nation; and
WHEREAS, persons acting under color of law as federal agents, under
the direction of those claiming to be elected officials operating under
color of law, sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United
States, have infringed upon the rights of citizens to keep and bear
arms, have conducted unlawful warrantless house to house searches and
seizures, have assaulted and killed sovereign citizens of this country
on the false pretense of "gun control," "child abuse," "the war on
drugs" and a plethora of unlawful statutes enacted to unlawfully control
the lives and liberty of the citizens of this country;
WHEREAS, elections are now controlled through the power of
committees and lobbies wielding the most money to obtain electoral votes
or sway the nomination of candidates and persuade the enactment of
legislation that has made it impossible for the common citizen to
participate as a candidate in an election or for the vote of the common
citizen to be meaningful; and
WHEREAS, through an unconstitutional and unlawfully enacted "income
tax," the federal government has created a "carrot and stick" that has
seduced and coerced the elected officials of the several states to
submit to the unlawful incursion of the federal government and its
agents into the sovereign territory of each state, as a trade off for
the receipt of these ill gotten proceeds;
THEREFORE, YOU ARE COMMANDED to uphold your oath and duty to the
citizens of this country, and to uphold the Constitution and the rights
of the citizens of this country, and in so doing, you are commanded to
personally initiate legislation and do all things necessary to:
Repeal the Fourteenth, Sixteenth, and Seventeenth Amendments to the
Constitution of the United States and to publicly acknowledge that the
federal government has no jurisdiction to make or enforce criminal laws
outside its territories, limited to the area of Washington, D.C., and
the property and territories actually owned by the United States, which
does not include any State within the several states of the United
States; and
Repeal the Brady Bill and NAFTA;
Repeal the Drug Interdiction Act and any laws which allow the use
of military equipment or military personnel against the United States
citizens. Presently, these laws provide a backdoor method to fund
"national guard" and "drug enforcement" using military troops and
equipment against U.S. citizens, while claiming these aren't "really"
military troops, they are "merely" national guard, or worse, "federal
law enforcement," but all are trained in military tactics, possess
military weapons, and military equipment. These laws must be repealed
and you must publicly acknowledge that the federal government may not,
through any means, use military force, weapons, or equipment against any
person on U.S. soil or upon the soil of any sovereign State, except in
the event of an actual invasion by troops of a foreign country within
the boundaries of the United States of America, and only then, against
such foreign troops, not citizens or residents of this country; and
Immediately remove any and all foreign troops and equipment and to
immediately identify each and every federal military troop and federal
law enforcement or tax enforcement agent and all equipment now located
within the boundaries of any and every State, including all assets of
military or task force "special operations" units, CIA, NSA, or any
other covert law enforcement, quasi-law enforcement or military agency
or activity; and
Declare that the United States of America is not operating under
the authority of the United Nations or if it is, to immediately renounce
and revoke any and all agreements binding the United States to such
authority; and
Declare the federal debt to the Federal Reserve null and void,
unconstitutional, and without effect and order that currency no longer
be printed by the Federal Reserve or any entity other than the Treasury
of the United States, backed by gold within the possession of the United
States; and
Convene a full Congressional inquiry, to be conducted publicly, by
an independent prosecutor selected from a person who has no association
in any way whatsoever with any agency of the federal government, into
the events in Waco, Texas, from February 28, 1993 through the present,
at the property known as Mt. Carmel, with the special prosecutor to have
the full power to convene a grand jury from the citizens of all the
fifty states, obtain indictments, and issue subpoenas duces tecum and
subpoenas for testimony before a grand jury, and to prosecute any and
all persons, regardless of their position in government, for any crimes
for which a true bill of indictment is returned.
Notice: You have until 8:00 a.m., September 18, 1994, the Monday
following the second full week that the Congress reconvenes in
September, to personally initiate legislation to this effect and to do
all things necessary to effect this legislation and the restoration of a
Constitutional government in within this country.
If you do not personally and publicly attend to these demands, you
will be identified as a Traitor, and you will be brought up on charges
for Treason before a Court of the Citizens of this Country.

DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE OF 1994
A Declaration by the Sovereign Citizens
of the Several States
Within the 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.
We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all people are
created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain
unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit
of Happiness.
That to secure these Rights, Governments are instituted among the
people, deriving their just Powers from the Consent of the Governed,
that whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these Ends,
it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to
institute a new Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles,
and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most
likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established
should not be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly
all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to suffer,
while Evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the
Forms to which they are accustomed.
But when a long Train of Abuses and Usurpations, pursuing
invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce them under
absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to throw off
such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future Security.
Such has been the patient Sufferance of the people of the several
states of the United States of America; and such is now the Necessity
which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government.
The History of the present federal government of the United States
of America is one of repeated injuries and Usurpations, all having in
direct Object the Establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States
and over the sovereign citizens within the several states. To prove
this, let Facts be submitted to a candid World:
All Branches, the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial, of the
federal government, have refused Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and
necessary for the public Good, the most blatant example of which is the
total contempt in which they have held the Constitution of the United
States and the rights of the citizens of this country protected by the
limitations upon government set forth in the Constitution;
The President and Congress have forbidden state Governors to pass
Laws of immediate and pressing importance, under inducement or threat of
the loss of federal funding, unless suspended in their Operation till
their Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, they have
utterly neglected to attend to them;
The legislative branch has refused to pass other Laws for the
Accommodation of large Districts of People, unless those People would
relinquish the Right of Representation in the Legislature, a Right
inestimable to them, and formidable to Tyrants only, as evidenced
through the passage of the Seventeenth Amendment to the Constitution of
the United States, and the present federal voting system, which is a
national sham and disgrace, and prevents the common man from
participating either as a candidate, or by meaningful vote for a
candidate of his choosing in a truly free and open election;
The Congress convenes in a manner which is inaccessible to the
general public who are not allowed to address the Congress nor to
directly supervise the activities of Congress, and publishes its
business in records not readily accessible to the People, intentionally
obtuse in the construction of both the laws and the publication thereof,
for the Purposes of deceiving and fatiguing the people into Compliance
with such Measures. The federal judicial offices have set themselves
wholly apart from and above the people, immune even from suit for their
transgressions, answerable to none, and responsive to none except those
who further their private interests;
The federal government, through unlawfully constituted federal
agencies which purport to be law enforcement agencies, and under the
color of laws enacted by the legislature which exceed the constitutional
jurisdiction of the federal government, has repeatedly murdered or
incarcerated those who have opposed with manly Firmness the invasions on
the Rights of the People;
The federal government has endeavored to prevent the Population of
these States; for that Purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization
of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their Migrations
hither, and raising the Conditions of new Appropriations of Lands; and
has endeavored to depopulate the United States, and for that purpose,
has waged chemical, biological, and radioactive warfare upon the people,
and encouraged and funded abortions and acts of genocide upon large
populations of the people;
All the branches of the federal government have obstructed the
Administration of Justice, by subjugating the federal courts to the
department of Treasury and the Executive Branch, and by refusing Assent
to Laws for establishing Judiciary Powers and the independent
Investigation of crimes committed by agencies and officials of the
federal government, insulating them from their crimes through executive
pardon, legislated and judicially created immunity from criminal and
civil prosecution;
The Federal Judiciary have been selected on the will and whim of
the executive branch and a Congress inattentive to anything but their
own special interests and the will and money of lobbying groups, and the
judiciary is dependent upon them for the Tenure of their Offices, and
the Amount and payment of their Salaries;
The federal government has erected a Multitude of new Offices, and
sent hither Swarms of Officers to harass our People, and eat out their
Substance;
The federal government has kept among us, in Times of Peace,
Standing Armies, without the consent of our Legislatures, or through the
seduction or coercion of the state legislatures through the mechanisms
of "federal tax monies" offered in exchange for the cooperation of the
state legislatures in handing over the sovereignty of each state;
The Military has been rendered independent of, and superior to the
Civil Power, through the enactment of laws which wholly abridge the
Constitution of the United States and which seek to avoid the effect of
the Posse Comitatus Act through surreptitious and covert methods;
The President, officers of the executive branch, and Congress have
combined with others to subject us to a Jurisdiction foreign to our
Constitution, and unacknowledged by our Laws; giving Assent to their
acts of pretended Legislation;
For quartering large Bodies of Armed Troops, foreign and federal,
among us;
For protecting agents of the federal government and military, from
any trial or by a mock Trial, from Punishment for any Murders which they
should commit on the inhabitants of these States;
For regulating and strangulating our Trade with all Parts of the
World;
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent; for failing to
publicly acknowledge, more than 60 years ago, that the federal
government was in fact, bankrupt, but instead, concealing these facts
from the people and entering into a fraudulent agreement to finance the
bankruptcy, by creating and perpetuating a fraudulent monetary system,
to the enrichment of private bankers, insurance companies, and their
stockholders, called the "Federal Reserve System," whereby paper notes
are created to "loan" to the federal government at interest rates fixed
by these private bankers, and where only a portion of the interest and
none of the principal on these loans is paid each year; a system whereby
the payments are extorted from the people through a fraudulent,
coercive, unjust and unlawful federal tax scheme foisted upon the people
without their knowledge or consent and through a labyrinth of licensing
agencies and required licenses for all manner of endeavors, which are
themselves nothing more than taxes by another name, all enforced by
unbridled terrorist tactics and fear produced by the brute force of an
unrestrained government that destroys the lives and property of those
who do not submit.
For depriving us, in many Cases, of the Benefits of Trial by Jury;
For proposing and enacting legislation to federally criminalize,
indeed to suffer the death penalty in many cases or at least the
forfeiture of property, for the free exercise of the unalienable rights
of free speech and free press, freedom of worship, freedom of assembly,
or the right to keep and bear arms;
For enacting legislation to seize the property of the people under
a myriad of pretenses, and to imprison persons on the testimony of a
unknown, unidentified, and often paid, informants, who become informants
to secure for themselves a more favorable position in a prosecution
brought against them, and all within the states where the federal
government has no legal powers of law enforcement;
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in the states, and
establishing therein an arbitrary Government, and enlarging its
Boundaries, so as to render it at once an Example and fit Instrument for
introducing the same absolute Rule into these states;
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws,
and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments;
For usurping the power of our own Legislatures, and declaring
themselves invested with Power to legislate for us in all Cases
whatsoever;
The federal government has abdicated Government here, by declaring
us out of its Protection and waging War against us;
The federal government has plundered our Seas, ravaged our Coasts,
burnt our towns, and destroyed the Lives of our People;
The federal government, at this Time, is transporting large Armies
of foreign Mercenaries to complete the works of Death, Desolation, and
Tyranny, already begun, often under the color of law of the United
Nations, and with circumstances of Cruelty and Perfidy, scarcely
paralleled in the most barbarous Ages, and totally unworthy of a
civilized Nation;
The government has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on
the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the
Executioners of their Friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by
their Hands;
The federal government has excited domestic insurrections amongst
us;
In every stage of these Oppressions we have Petitioned for Redress
in the most humble Terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered
only by repeated injury. A President, whose Character is thus marked by
every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the Ruler of a free
People.
We, therefore, the sovereign citizens of the several states of the
united states, which now form the United States of America, appealing to
the Supreme Judge of the World for the Rectitude of our Intentions, do,
in our own names and right and by the authority of God Almighty,
solemnly Publish and Declare, that each of the sovereign citizens
undersigned are, and of Right ought to be, Free and Independent
Sovereign Citizens; that they are absolved from all Allegiance to the
federal government of the United States of America, and that all
political Connection between them and the federal government of the
United States of America, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that
as Free and Independent Sovereign Citizens, each has the full Power to
levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to
do all other Acts and Things which an Independent Sovereign may of right
do. And for the support of this declaration, with a firm Reliance on
the Protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each of our
lives, our Fortunes, and our sacred Honor.
