DEMANDING THAT THE STATE RECOGNIZE COMMON LAW MARRIAGE, SO YOU CAN RESCIND YOUR OLD CIVIL MARRIAGE AND START OVER IN COMMON LAW
Filed Under COMMON LAW, FREEDOM, GAY MARRIAGE, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, Martial Law, Territorial Jurisdiction | 2 Comments
Ten States and the District of Columbia recognize common law marriage, so 80% of the States refuse to recognize that a mature man and woman can live together as husband and wife without purchasing a marriage license.
Only one of the six States that allows same sex marriage recognizes common law marriage.
Clearly, the over whelming majority of the States are into marriage for the money and the control the licensing of the most intimate of human relationships provides government.
Government marital money grubbing can be stopped dead in its tracks, if married people individually or as couples rescind the marriage license that was purchased from a State on the false representation that any marriage without the license would be invalid.
How much sense does it make to refuse government recognition to a husband and wife in a common law marriage, while such recognition is extended to a same sex couple? It doesn’t make any sense, but government will not change its spots any more than a leopard can.
Government is a commercial enterprise, so if it can coerce the people to pay government for the “privilege” of enjoying human society’s most fundamental, it has become a “public trust” that needs busting.
Trust busing is as easy as learning the ABC’s of law and government by enrolling in my Basic Course in Law and Government. Licensing requires written laws and many regulations, which have to apply to one place and to the exclusion of all others. Governments are limited to making laws for the lands owned by the United States of America. You will learn how, when you enroll. To enroll contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

GAY MARRIAGE, PROPOSITION 8, MARRIAGE LICENSES, COMMON LAW AND THE GOVERNMENT OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
Filed Under COMMON LAW, CONGRESS, GAY MARRIAGE, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, ORGANIC LAWS, Oath of Office, State of California, Territorial Jurisdiction | 1 Comment
California was named by Spanish explorers and claimed for the Spanish monarchy many centuries ago.
California and Texas were republics of the Mexican Union of States and Spanish property law currently applies in these and other American States. English is the common language in California and Texas and the English common law is the law in both places.
The original thirteen States formed the perpetual Union, the United States of America on March 1, 1781 when Maryland became the thirteenth State to ratify the Articles of Confederation of November 15, 1777. The State of California joined the perpetual Union when her two Senators were admitted to the Senate of the United States of America.
The State of California was admitted to the Union established by the Constitution of September 17, 1787 on September 9, 1850 and according to Article 3 Section 1of its Constitution of 1879, “is an inseparable part of the United States of America and the Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the land.” The State of California, an inseparable part of the United States of America, is both a government and that part of California, which is owned by the United States of America.
The State of California does not recognize common law marriage, which is an unlicensed marriage between a man and woman, but does recognize the licensed marriages of the other 55 States of the Union established by the Constitution of September 17, 1787, which was ratified by the States, but not adopted by a government bound to support that Constitution.
The Supreme Court of the State of California issued an opinion in a case that marriages between persons of the same sex were lawful and, therefore, should be licensed by the State of California.
Proposition 8, which defined marriage as only between one man and one woman, was approved by a majority of State of California registered voters and conforms with Title 1 United States Code Section 7. Definition of “marriage” and “spouse:” “
In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States, the word ‘marriage’ means only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife, and the word ‘spouse’ refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife.”
Based upon these facts, the Congress of the United States of America recognizes the existence within the place called California two kinds of territory one owned by the United States of America and another owned by others not the United States of America.
The decision and opinion rendered by United States district judge Vaughn Walker in the matter of the constitutionality of Proposition 8 is inconsistent with the Organic Laws of the United States of America and an act of the Congress of the United States of America.
The recognition by Congress and the refusal of the State of California and many other States of the United States to recognize common law marriage illustrates the nature of the Article I Section 8 Clause 18 ”exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever.” The Congress of the United States has the power to recognize common law from outside the United States, but the States of the United States do not.
Because the officers of the federal government have never taken and subscribed a written Article VI oath “to support this Constitution,” the Constitution of September 17, 1787 has not been adopted for the United States of America. The “exclusive Legislation” afforded by proprietary power of Congress trumps the un-adopted Constitution of the United States every time.
Has your state withdrawn recognition of common law marriage and is there a gay marriage movement in your state or has same sex marriage become a reality there? Then you are in luck, if you want to claim your freedom. The right to pick your marriage partner is a fundamental human right, so the attempt by the State to outlaw common law marriage and to license civil marriage is a clear signal that the State has unlawfully extended its power beyond the lands owned by the United States of America.
To take advantage of all the possibilities common law and gay marriage present, you must know law and government. My Basic Course in Law and Government is the only one that will prepare you to take on the State government’s legal establishment. To enroll, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com

VAUGHN R. WALKER OPENLY GAY UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT JUDGE FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA SAYS PROPOSITION 8 IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL—SAME SEX MARRIAGES ARE LEGAL IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
Filed Under CONGRESS, CONSTITUTION, GAY MARRIAGE, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, ORGANIC LAWS, State of California, U.S. District Court | 3 Comments
The territorial jurisdiction of Chief Judge Walker is the land owned by the United States of America within the counties that comprise the Northern District, so Judge Walker’s findings are limited to that territory.
The legal result of the ruling is that same sex couples may marry in a place under the exclusive legislative power of the United States Congress. Using that authority Congress has enacted Title 1 United States Code Section 7, the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which recognizes only a marriage between one man and one woman.
Judge Walker’s opinion is in direct conflict with an act of Congress, when one knows how to interpret the first sentence that appears in Chapter 5—District Courts Title 28 United States Code: “Sections 81 - 131 of this chapter show the territorial composition of districts and divisions by counties as of January 1, 1945.”
Sections 81 through 131 of Chapter 5 of Title 28 describe the territorial composition of the 48 States, the two Territories, Alaska and Hawaii; the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The only territory common to the 48 States, two territories, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico is land owned by the federal government, the United States of America, the Confederacy.
Knowing the proper legal territorial jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Northern District of California is the only sensible way to understand the consequences of Judge Walker’s opinion.

SAVING CALIFORNIA FROM THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I have been too busy saving California from the government of the State of California and the government of the United States to write new posts. I am sharing with regular readers a portion of what I have written to help Californians out of the hole government has dug for them.
The “Dear State of California Superior Court Judge Letter” is both a lesson for the students in my advanced class and a notice to the so-called judicial branch of State government. Only the first and last paragraphs of this six-page letter appear here. Only former law clients and students who have enrolled and paid for the basic course in law and government will be able to participate in the advanced course and receive this and other advanced lessons. For information on the basic and advanced course, contact me at edrivera@edrivera.com
Dr. Eduardo M. Rivera
Dear State of California Superior Court Judge:
It is the intention of this notice to make you aware that your evident lack of basic knowledge of the structure of government and the difference between written and unwritten law have caused me and other Californians great financial harm in that you and judges like you are extending the written law of the State of California outside the territorial limitations of that law. There are no real judges in the State of California, as sovereignty is based on the authority of a written constitution that has not been adopted by government. The government of the United States is based on the popular election of a President of the United States, who has taken only an oral oath to “preserve, protect and defend” the Constitution of the United States.
***
Dr. Rivera’s research confirms that none of the presidential libraries contain any evidence of a subscription to a written oath. The complete absence of a written oath by any of the 44 Presidents of the United States provides such overwhelming evidence that a United States Constitution or Constitution of the United States, whether, by now, written or unwritten must be confined to the territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America. In any event, the evidence I have provided is so compelling it requires a response from you. I will assume that your refusal or failure to respond as an acknowledgement that your territorial jurisdiction does not extend beyond the federal territory in California.
Very truly yours,
Your name

WHY ARE ATTORNEYS TED OLSEN AND DAVID BOIES UNLIKELY ALLIES IN A SUIT TO DEFEAT PROP 8?
Filed Under GAY MARRIAGE, LEARNING THE LAW, State of California | Leave a Comment
The Supreme Court of the State of California upheld Proposition 8 and the right of the voters of the State of California to make non-enumerated power laws for the inhabitants of the State of California. Could the Supreme Court do anything else? Congress has already defined marriage as only between one man and one woman. The voters of the United States elected Congress and Congress enacted Title 1 of the United States Code.
The judges of the State of California also decided that there is no common law marriage in the State of California. Common law marriage is part of the English common law, which is the law in California. The Supreme Court of the State of California decided to sanction the 18,000 same sex marriages that prompted Proposition 8, because in the State of California statutory law is made on the fly, by the legislature, the governor and the judges.
Olsen and Boies have teamed up to save gay marriage and the so-called legal profession. Young people in California long ago abandoned licensed statutory marriages in favor of common law unions. Gays are the only cohesive group that support statute laws. Olsen and Boies are shamelessly trolling the troubled State of California waters for the only supporters of the kind of law that will sustain them and a bankrupt State of California.

MAINE GOES FOR GAY MARRIAGE
Filed Under COMMON LAW, CONSTITUTION, GAY MARRIAGE, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, Northwest Ordinance, Property Taxes, Territorial Jurisdiction | Leave a Comment
Actually, it is the State of Maine that is the latest State to go gay marriage. Maine’s legislators voted for gay marriage and Maine’s Governor John Baldacci quickly signed the bill into law.
This is actually good news because it makes it easier to understand all the quirks and queer turns written law can take. The English common law is unwritten law and this inconspicuousness has made it easy for State governments to ignore, but it is the law in every state except for Louisiana. In England the people were relatively free because their law was the unwritten common law, which allowed them to govern themselves in their ordinary affairs. The king controlled government with written law. In America when the patriots got rid of the king, the Founding Fathers had to fake a king in the form of a President of the United States. Without a substitute king, written laws could not be made for the people.
There is no statutory language in the State of Maine that prohibits common law marriage, however, according to the Martindale-Hubbell Law Digest, volume 1, common law marriage is “not recognized” in the State of Maine. It cites a Maine Supreme Judicial Court case, which states that “common law marriages are not recognized as valid under the laws of the state” (Pierce v. Secretary of U.S. Dept. of Health, Education and Welfare, 254 A.2d 46 (1969).
The State of Maine does not accept the English common law because the Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the land, which is the territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America.
The State of Maine is on a collision course with federal law, Title 1 United States Code Section 7:
In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States, the word “marriage” means only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife, and the word “spouse” refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife.
Americans got rid of taxation when they kicked out George III. Those great and glorious Founding Fathers brought it back with the Northwest Ordinance of July 13, 1787, the Constitution of September 17, 1787 and President of the United States George Washington.
As more and more States go gay and taxes go higher and higher, the 49 on shore English common law states will become tax havens to the world. If you aren’t living in the White House, you are very likely living in a common law state. Despite a rather mundane name, the English common law provides some very attractive creature comforts.

GAY MARRIAGE IN IOWA? NO. IOWA STATE GOVERNMENT LICENSES COUPLES OF THE SAME SEX WHO WANT ALL THE GOVERNMENT BENEFITS PAID BY THEIR TAXES
Filed Under GAY MARRIAGE, LEARNING THE LAW, Territorial Jurisdiction | Leave a Comment
On April 3, 2009, the State of Iowa Supreme Court in a unanimous ruling, upheld an August 2007 decision by Polk County District Court Judge Robert Hanson, who had decided that a State of Iowa revenue law limiting marriage only to unions between a man and a woman denied the constitutional right to the equal protection of the laws to same sex couples, who wanted to be married.
Gay couples pay income and other taxes to the State of Iowa and they don’t have the privilege of paying the marriage license tax, so Judge Hanson decided it just wasn’t fair that a gay couple not have the right to pay another tax for the privilege of doing what they were already doing without the license.
Marriage hasn’t always been a privilege. Making privileges out of the rights of Americans has been the steady work of American politicians since George Washington usurped power over the American people. Regular readers of these posts can track the birth of the nanny State back to April 30, 1789, the date George Washington took the oath of Office of President of the United States.
The State of Iowa now joins the State of Connecticut and the State of Massachusetts as purveyors of gay marriage licenses to all couples so they can freely commit what were once classified as crimes against nature. The State of Iowa can now be accurately classified as the red light district of the Midwest. State government is near bottom.
Black’s Law Dictionary 4th Ed. defines “buggery” as “A carnal copulation against nature; a man or a woman with a brute beast, a man with a man or man unnaturally with a woman.” The carnal copulations of women with women are not reported, we brutes are not privy to such connections, but they must, of course, exist. The State of Iowa gay marriage license legalizes all of it, provided it is done in the State of Iowa.

DIVORCE THE GOVERNMENT: DID YOU BUY A LICENSE TO MARRY IN THE UNITED STATES?
Filed Under GAY MARRIAGE, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, OBAMA, Oath of Office, PRESIDENTS, ProperTea Tax Tea Party, Territorial Jurisdiction | Leave a Comment
When a couple get a license to marry, they are contributing to the process of being ruled by the military dictatorship begun by George Washington. It was Washington who made it possible by his election on February 4, 1789 to the Office of President and his switch in office to President of the United States. Big government was initiated by George Washington and will end when couples come together as a Tea Party for two.
On April 30, 1789 took an oath of employment allegiance to the Congress of the United States, as 43 other sneaky men have done after him. As the people are finding out with Barack Hussein Obama, Presidents of the United States are faithless to the people.
Whether or not George Washington was faithful to Martha is not the issue. Washington was just one of the first of many faithless men who have let the American people down by pretending to be something that they are not.
Law is all about relationships. An otherwise auspicious one like marriage is easily ruined when an evil third party like government is made part of the relationship. When the marriage relationship ends and divorce appears, the last thing an unhappy couple needs is the long arm of military law in the form of a Black Robe “family law judge.”
Common law marriage licenses aren’t for sale because they don’t exist. The popular myth peddled by the government and its licensed media is that the English common law has been replaced by State Codes and the United States Code. Young people today are marrying and rearing children under both the common law and written law. All they need is a nudge in the direction of the truth and they will quit the written law.
Divorce for couples who are married under the English common law, whether or not recognized by the State, cannot be an issue for the Black Robes. No paper marriage license means no marriage in the United States. Under the guise of caring for minor children, the Black Robes claim jurisdiction over children not within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.
The State is just the business the oligarchy operates to manage its assets and yours, if you allow it. Learn to take your business elsewhere by contacting me at edrivera@edrivera.com

CLASH OF THE UNIONS
Filed Under COMMON LAW, GAY MARRIAGE, LAW OF THE LAND, LEARNING THE LAW, State of California | Leave a Comment
The controversy over gay marriage in California is a clash of the Unions. The holy Union of marriage was conceived by God as the first Union. All other unions are conceived by men to achieve various ends.
The first Union recognized in the New World between the colonists of England was the English common law marriage between man and wife. This Union required no license from any form of government. This Union between man and wife made the couple one and the man was the one.
The second Union in America was the perpetual Union of the thirteen states joined to form the Confederacy, under the Articles of Confederation, known as the United States of America. The Confederacy was famous for having no power to impose direct taxation on the Confederate States and no authority to create legislation to impose indirect taxation on anyone or anything. And as there were no laws there was no need for any courts.
The Congress of the United States of America then known as the United States, in Congress assembled then initiated the Union of the United States by creating States with very sparse populations, the States of the Northwest Territory, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and part of Minnesota. These States were permanently united with the Confederacy known as the United States of America and were thereafter known as the United States in the Constitution of September 17, 1787. The United States is, today, the territory within the States of the second Union and perpetual Union known as the United States of America.
There is a movement to make Washington, D. C. a part of the third Union by giving it a voting Representative. Like the old States of the Northwest Territory, Washington, D. C. has a non-voting Representative in Congress. Washington, D. C. would not be a part of the second Union, the United States of America, because it would not have two Senators. An easy way to keep track of the third Union, the United States, is to collect the State quarters you are given in change. This year the rest of the United States will come out in coin. Save them to remind yourself that the United States is the federal territory within each state of the United States of America and Washington, D. C., Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands, Guam, and America Samoa.
The United States is the third Union in America. The United States consists of that territory owned by and ceded to the perpetual Union of the United States of America. The United States Government consists of a President of the United States and a Congress of the United States, which enacts legislation for the territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America.
The third Union in America, the United States cannot make laws for the inhabitants of the United States, who are not an employment oath taking part of the government, so it can only define the words used to make law for government. The Union of marriage is defined in Title 1 United States Code Section 7:
In determining the meaning of any Act of Congress, or of any ruling, regulation, or interpretation of the various administrative bureaus and agencies of the United States, the word “marriage” means only a legal union between one man and one woman as husband and wife, and the word “spouse” refers only to a person of the opposite sex who is a husband or a wife.
Article 3 Section 1 of the State of California Constitution confirms that the State of California consists of territory owned by and ceded to the United States of America:
“The State of California is an inseparable part of the United States of America, and the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land.”
The final clash of the Unions may be over gay marriage. The written law in the State of California only applies in the federal territory in California, where the Constitution of the United States is the supreme law.
Let us pray that the final clash of the Unions will limit government and all its ungodly unions to federal territory.

The State of California was officially admitted to the so-called “more perfect” Union of government territory created by “this Constitution” on September 9, 1850. The first “perpetual union” and “firm league of friendship” formed by the ratification by the first thirteen states of the Articles of Confederation is, of course, still operating. California was admitted to the Confederacy known as, the United States of America, when its two Senators were accepted by the rest of the Senate of the United States.
The thirteen states that declared their independence on July 4, 1776 were not immediately accepted as nation states by the established countries of the world. The states of the United States had to be recognized by another free and independent state under the Law of Nations, before they could call themselves nation states.
Benjamin Franklin first became commissioner to France then Minister Plenipotentiary. He would become one of the ministers who would sign the Treaty of Paris. Franklin is largely responsible for the myth that “this Constitution” created a republic that credit should go to George Washington.
On March 1, 1781 Maryland completed the Confederacy of the United States of America by ratifying the Articles of Confederation. Article I of the Treaty with Great Britain of 1783 acknowledged the thirteen states as “free, sovereign and independent States.”
New Hampshire became the ninth State to ratify “this Constitution” on June 21, 1788 according to Article VII. Note that Article VII of ”this Constitution” states that nine States ”shall be sufficient for the Establishment of this Constitution between the States so ratifying the Same.” “Establishment is, thus, fundamentally different from “Adoption.”
Although the People of the United States have Established this Constitution and the ratification of nine States shall be sufficient for the Establishment, 221 years after ratification and Establishment “this Constitution” is yet to be adopted by any branch of the United States Government. The Constitution is “the Constitution” found in the oath of Office of President of the United States.
California is one of the 37 states that became part of the United States of America, which is the Confederacy under the Articles of Confederation, after May 29, 1790, the date Rhode Island became the thirteenth state to ratify “this Constitution.” The urban legend that the Articles of Confederation were repealed by “this Constitution” is completely baseless, because “this Constitution” was to be established when only nine States ratified. The Articles require a unanimous vote of all thirteen states.
The original thirteen states organized into the United States of America, when Maryland became the final state to ratify the Articles of Confederation, contained no territory owned by the United States of America. The ratification of “this Constitution” by nine States permitted a Congress to purchase land, pursuant to a provision in “this Constitution.”
The District of Columbia, Places purchased by Congress in the original thirteen states and all the new territory in America owned by the United States of America would become the United States. The President of the United States is dictator of this government land and he administers it as if were under military occupation.
Proponents of gay marriage in California are relying on the State Constitution and the State Supreme Court. Even if the Constitution for the State of California guaranteed everyone in the State of California the right to marry the partner of his or her choice that right would have to be limited to the State of California, which has to be government territory. The United States Code of the United States Government defines marriage as between a man and woman, so it will not permit the Supreme Court of the State of California to make law for its territory.
The Constitution of the State of California should have the last word and here it is: “Article 3 State of California. Section 1. The State of California is an inseparable part of the United States of America, and the United States Constitution is the supreme law of the land.”
