Patriot Resource List

Okay, I'm going to start off with resources I can strongly recommend from
personal experience or relationships with someone with a good experience and
then branch out into whatever I have left for resources, which often amounts
to not much more than names and numbers.
A warning: You may find, upon examination of the "patriot movement" (as they
like to refer to themselves), genuinely valuable insights on questions of
monetary policy and law, and at the same time, false and outrageous views
regarding Jews, blacks, homosexuals or other generally disliked groups. This
is a consistent pattern in American populism going back at least as far as
Father Coughlin, who exhibits a striking metamorphosis over the course of
his career from a primary concern with social justice and monetary reform to
a blatant anti-Jewish stance. I think it is important for all those
concerned with this question to explore, analyze, and attempt to understand
this dynamic, lest monetary reformers and sovereign defenders of rights be
tarred for all time by a continued association with the spectre of blind,
unreasoning hatred. Patriots for Liberty explicitly states that they do not
(as a group) condone such attacks, even though the same wackos I just
mentioned all showed up in droves and PFL itself associates strongly with
the John Birch Society. Another common direction is that many of these
groups are highly religious. In any respect, deal with it; they have
valuable information even if their prejudices drive you up the wall.
On a related topic, I have given a "Level of Religiousness" for each person
or organization listed. Since I personally am a natural law atheist, I give
more credence to legal arguments that do not rely upon religion. I also
believe that judges are more likely to listen to arguments that are grounded
in solid, objective legal fact, and not subjective religious ideas.
Prices are sometimes given in Federal Reserve Notes (FRN's) and sometimes in
gold and/or silver.
There are two existing mailing lists for discussion of these topics:
The Frog Farm (frog-farm-request@blizzard.lcs.mit.edu)
Patriots (patriots@kaiwan.com)
Relevant articles and an FAQ (Frequently Asked-for Quotes) can be had from
ftp://etext.archive.umich.edu/pub/Politics/FrogFarm
[I would like to add here all relevant FTP sites, WWW servers, etc., that may
be of interest to those studying the topic of sovereignty. If you know of
any, please send them in! I'd also like to add a brief paragraph on the
chronic lack of clue exhibited by those who claim that only "white males" can
claim the status of sovereign...]
George Gordon's School of Common Law
P.O. Box 297
Isabella, MO
65676
1-417-273-4967 or 417-273-4772
(every day except Sundays sundown to sundown)
George has been defending his rights in court for almost twelve years now. A
small businessman who taught himself to fight back when Big Brother put him
out of business, he founded Barrister's Inne School of Common Law in Boise,
Idaho with Roger Elvick. As a result, the city of Boise stopped pulling over
automobiles without license plates; it was getting too expensive to
prosecute cases they almost always lost. In his original 1982 videotaped
lessons, George said that many people told him that he wasn't long for this
world. But here it is, eleven years later, and he's still succeeding! His
classes cost one (1) ounce of gold per week, with gold at 500.00 FRN's per
ounce. Write or call for a catalog of books and list of classes. Good stuff:
Scott McGee's "Do You Speak Credit?", 14 pp., 1 silver dollar or 6 FRN's;
Walter M. Froengen's "Legal Quotes 1", 88 pp., 2 silver dollars or 12 FRN's;
Paul Conley's "Zoning and the Property Owner", 104 pp., 6 silver dollars or
33 FRN's; "Trial Preparation", 177 pp., 6 silver dollars or 33 FRN's; and
James C. Cissell's "Proving Federal Crimes", 252 pp., 6 silver dollars or 33
FRN's. Level of Religiousness: Reasonable; explicitly ties into legal
defenses in some areas.
Note on Gordon himself: This guy is amazing. He follows ALL 759 laws of
Moses to the letter and runs a farm where he teaches his school. He is
extremely articulate and hopefully he got over his previous problems. If you
do have a talk with him, ask him about Gordon vs. State, 108 Idaho 178, 697
P.2d 1192; State vs. Von Schmidt, 109 Idaho 736; and State vs. Gibson, 108
Idaho 202, 697 P.2d 1216. These are all cases which appear to involve Mr.
Gordon and his school and I am interested in what the outcome was and how he
managed to avoid problems like what happened in those cases later on (and he
obviously has).
Don't worry about Roger Elvick much, except perhaps sending him a letter if
you get into the mood for it. He's a prisoner of war, currently being held
captive by the federal government for fighting their unlawful dictatorship.
His own Nitty Gritty School of Common Law was even better than George
Gordon's school, but he is pretty much permanently out of it now.
Bruce G. McCarthy
HC-62, Box 375
Smithville, OK
74957
The author of "MSO: Key To Ownership", an excellent example of tacit
procuration against administrative agencies, dealing with vehicle license
plates and registration. Send $0.50 in pre-1965 U.S. silver coin, or 5.00 in
postage stamps, for the two booklets "The Pernicious Treadmill of Credit"
and "Theocratic v. Democratic Money". Level of Religiousness: Somewhat more
pervasive than George Gordon, but still quite reasonable overall. If nothing
else, get the book anyways for humor value.
National Commodity and Barter Association
8000 E. Girard Ave., Suite 215-S
Denver, CO 80231
First year membership is 280 FRN's. With it, they send you all their
research as a giant multi-volume "encyclopaedia" set. They also have
extensive legal services and have been actively creating the precedents in
the area of income tax that most of the other people mentioned here are
using. They obviously also offer banking and barter services. If you can
afford it, I would give Barrister's Inne, NCBA, and FES my personal approval
as the best that money can buy.
The following information is taken directly from an NCBA brochure sent to me
in January of 1991.
I would call these facts to your attention first:
- The NCBA considers it a Good Thing to be "politically involved",
i.e., being registered to vote and voting, stirring up "grass roots"
action, etc., whereas the Frog Farm's position has always been that
free persons do not need to vote, and are actually better off not
voting at all, since "rights are not subject to a vote" or to the
whims of a majority.
- You should remember that if you are a "member" of a "group" or
"organization", your status before the law changes.
- Never allow anyone to represent you, do not represent yourself,
DEFEND yourself. NCBA offers (among other things) information
regarding the few lawyers who will operate on this sort of
level. But one of the Frog Farm's many golden rules is to NEVER
give power of attorney to anyone, except to a very limited
degree, and even then only under dire circumstances.
With this in mind, let's let the brochure speak:
GREETINGS FROM THE NCBA
The National Commodity and Barter Association is the strongest First
Amendment association in the nation today offering vital services to
members. The NCBA is a political redress, first amendment association,
formed for effective redress of greivances as provided for and protected
by the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. It was founded in 1978
by John Grandbouche, who remained its director until his death in May
of 1986. The NCBA is now under the leadership of Mr. John Voss. It is,
by definition, a First Amendment association dedicated to educating all
Americans and helping them exercise and protect their individual rights.
In numerous confrontations with the government, particularly with the
Internal Revenue Service, the NCBA has consistently had its claims
upheld, most recently in the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals where the
NCBA challenged and defeated the IRS over the use of an illegal search
warrant issued upon its main office in Denver. (Voss, Grandbouche, et.
al., v. Agents Bergsgaard, et. al., 774 F2d 402, 1985.) The court
stated, among other things... "Certainly, the organization's advocation
of modifying or abolishing our country's tax system is a legitimate
activity. Indeed, it is an activity protected by the first amendment."
NCBA director John Voss, who believes that he, as a private individual,
was not and is not required to file income tax returns and that his
wages did not constitute taxable income, was charged by the IRS with
willfully failing to file income tax returns for years 1979-1980. He
was found not guilty by a district court jury.
The NCBA carries the fight for individual rights forward on many fronts:
o The right of parents to home educate their children as an alternative
to public schooling is only one area of activity within the association.
With the high illiteracy rates among our young people and our public
schools suffering from a decline in educational quality, is it any
wonder why increasing numbers of concerned parents are choosing home
instruction for their children?
o The NCBA is active in putting a stop to the tyrannical activities of
the IRS against the American citizen, and ridding America of the
present, counter-productive system of income taxation.
o Members have access to some of the best legal help in the country for
defending themselves from the illegal and oppressive tactics of
government. [Frog Note: No, government actions are not illegal --
they're done with all due form of law. But they're UNLAWFUL -- because
they do not have the SUBSTANCE of law.] This includes the Mutual
Assistance Plan (MAP) which provides financial assistance to NCBA
members needing a licensed attorney or to those wishing to defend
their rights pro se.
o NCBA provides Freedom Books to its members which contain over 60
chapters on Constitutional Law and Taxation, home education litigation,
administrative procedure, tax court, criminal and civil litigation,
history and much more. These books are constantly updated and revised
and are worth much more than the price of membership.
o In addition, NCBA encourages its members to become involved in the
political process by running for public office or serving on community
action committees. [Frog Note -- remember what happens then? You give
up your status as a freeman in exchange for limited powers, privileges
and immunities, under contract (Constitutions) as a Public SERVANT.
And that's fine, if you really WANT to...]
Political action to many people means writing your congressman and supporting
candidates for public office. To others, it means effective courtroom action.
[Yep!] Another effective action is to participate in an exchange rather than a
commercial bank, in order to regain control of your financial affairs.
[Actually, this should preferably be done BEFORE you engage in any courtroom
action -- it's called "judgment proofing" yourself.]
Mr. Grandbouche established the NCBA without government sanction or license.
His attitude of, "Do what is right and let the consequence follow," has
brought consequences that have resulted in significant victories in the courts
for the NCBA.
First and most importantly, we assert the right to associate without
government identification numbers, licenses or permits. This is a fundamental
right of natural born persons in our free Republic.
Secondly, we assert the natural right to make agreements and contracts between
each other without the permission of bureaucratic would-be masters.
Thirdly, we claim the right to associate and contract privately. The right to
privacy is essential in a free society, and poses a threat only to a corrupt,
prying government.
These three basic rights, combined with NCBA court victories, illuminate the
once dark path leading back to the basics. You can exercise these rights in
two simple steps:
1. You become a member of the NCBA, which is "a legitimate First Amendment
association".
2. You make a private contract with an authorized NCBA associate to receive
funds from you, buy and sell gold and silver for you and make
disbursements of federal reserve "notes" and other commodity at your
direction.
The member using the exchange properly has little need for a commercial
checking account and can remove themselves from direct personal contact with
the destructive federal reserve banks, their only contact with such entities
being indirect and through NCBA. This is political redress against the federal
reserve and an exercise of the right of privacy in financial affairs to which
everyone is entitled.
NCBA services are not available to the general public and are therefore not
subject to public regulations. The National Commidity Exchange exists without
government permission. Any NCE operator will be pleased to act as an agent in
receiving deposits, buying or selling commodity and making disbursements at
the member's direction with the following understandings:
1. NCE exists to facilitate a member's inherent and inalienable right to
privacy. You must become an NCBA member and remain one to continue as a
participant in the exchange.
2. It is understood that NCE does not exist to shield any illegal activity or
funds derived from an illegal activity, nor does it provide a shelter from
lawful obligations.
3. The contact between you and the NCE agent is a common law contract.
Accordingly, NCE must conduct transactions with individual, natural born
persons who are also NCBA members, and may not contract with juristic
persons, trusts, corporations or other artificial entities.

Don't know much about them, other than their newsletter has some pretty good
research in it.
Free Enterprise Society
300 West Shaw Ave., Suite 205
Clovis, CA 93612
These guys are sort of like the "Loompanics" of law. Lots of neat nifty
books in their catalog. They also offer private banking services (your money
does not devaluate continuously when deposited with them, unlike regular
banks), services for getting out of driver's licenses, and several other
legal aid services as well as classes and seminars. The catalog is free and
also includes several articles of use in each one; it doubles as their
newsletter. Essentially, these guys are a cheap NCBA.
Our Ageless Constitution
PO Box 2909
Asheboro, NC 27204
919-626-2176
They offer bound editions of the constitution along with a big
interpretative section of some sort. I have not seen the actual goods, so I
decline to comment further.
NTP Newsletter
c/o Otto Skinner
PO Box 6509
San Pedro, CA 90734
213-515-3369
Otto offers _The Best Kept Secret: Taxpayer vs. Non-Taxpayer_ and _If You
Are the Defendent_ and a bi-monthly newsletter entitled _Nontaxpayers
United_.
National Citizen Education
9205 S.E. Clackamas Road, Suite 435

They have a book called _Financial Survival_ discussing the Federal Reserve,
banking, money, income taxes, deciphering IRS Code, the "coming currency
switch", and other topics.
Irwin Schiff
60 Skiff St., Suite 300
Hamden, Conn., 06517
He wrote a book entitled _The Federal Mafia -- How it illegally imposes and
Unlawfully Collects Income Tax_. He also has several other publications of a
similar nature.
Cornerstones of Freedom
PO Box 29265, Dept. T-1-D
Honolulu, Hawaii 96820
They have collected opinion letters from noted tax attorneys, CPA's, tax
experts, and language experts who have all stated numerous legal reasons why
you can't be required to liable to file or pay income tax. They offer it as
supporting documentation if you want to disclaim "willful" failure to file,
as in the recent Cheek vs. US case.
The Upright Ostrich
PO Box 11691
Milwaukee, WI 53211
Another newsletter that I have heard extremely high recommendations for,
although I have not personally seen it.
PEGS Bookstore
PO Box 9337
Missoula, Montana 69807
Jeffrey Dickstein is an excellent tax lawyer and they carry his books,
including _Judicial Tyranny and the Income Tax_ which analyzes every
pertinent court case to date dealing with income tax.
Citizen's Bar Assocation
PO Box 935
Medford, OR 97051
503-779-0950
These guys do some excellent research. Some of their work is actually
used in the articles I have written.
Remnant Church Library
4015 Clinton Ave.
Klamath Falls, OR
97603
1-503-883-8243
Their videotapes are rather expensive, but are real meat and potatoes
hardcore detail on law. Level of Religiousness: Very explicit, but not
overbearing; very friendly folks, a father-and-son team.
Vic Lockman
Box 1916
Ramona, CA
92065
Produces cute comic booklets that at first glance look like Jack Chick
comics. However, instead of cheap and stupid moralizing, Vic writes very
easily comprehensible explanations of many of the legal difficulties facing
those who wish to exercise Rights. Good stuff includes "Money, Banking and
Usury", for 3.95 FRN's. For 8.00 FRN's, you can get 50 copies of his 11-page
"Social Security: A Crumbling Fraud", which you can randomly distribute to
the sheeple and maybe educate a few of them. Certainly more productive than
those ridiculous Chick comics. Level of Religiousness: About the same as
Gordon.
Laissez Faire Books
942 Howard St.
San Francisco, CA
94103
1-800-326-0996
Widest available selection of libertarian, history, philosophy, economic and
Randian books, audio and video tapes; publishes regular informative catalog
with book reviews. Good stuff: Frederic Bastiat's "The Law", "The Lysander
Spooner Reader", Randy E. Barnett's "The Rights Retained by the People",
Albert Jay Nock's "Our Enemy the State", Adam Cash's "Guerilla Capitalism:
How to Practice Enterprise in an Unfree Economy" and "How to Do Business
'Off the Books'" and Grace Llewellyn's "The Teenage Liberation Handbook".
Recommendation: Snag _The Law_ from the networks and at least read that. If
you are a bleeding heart liberal and managed to understand what you are
reading after that, I pity you for being so stupid. Give copies to all your
liberal friends, too, so you can at least carry on reasonable conversation
with them.
International Society for Individual Liberty
1800 Market St.
San Francisco, CA
94102
Publishes "Freedom Network News", a compilation of worldwide events relating
to (what else) freedom. Excellent tool for networking with people all over
the globe (pen pals in foreign countries are great!).
Michigan Bar Association (Common Law)
28600 Gratiot Ave.
Roseville, MI 48066
They have a study group? that meets every Wednesday evening at 7pm at the
above location. I still have NO information about them, but if I knew
anything about them, I might show up even though it's a 4 hour drive (more
or less) for me.
Justice Times
PO Box 163
Upland, CA 91785
This is a pretty decent magazine in large newspaper format with lots of
decent references and current news of interest. For those of you who listen
to Rush Limbaugh or Chuck Harder, one of the regular writers for the Justice
Times is none other than Oliver North.
Patriots for Liberty
Box 334
Rochester, IN 46975
This is the group I mentioned that is using the administrative remedy and a
letter-response method that I mentioned earlier with a 100% success rate in
dealing with the IRS. They ask for donations (say 5-10 FRNs for a year or
so) to cover their printing costs on their newsletter, which comes out about
4-5 times a year, but irregularly. The newsletter is constantly FULL of new
information and additional references and contacts. I highly recommend their
newsletter if for no other reason than that.

Antioch, Illinois
60002
Fax: (708) 838-0316
Surveillance Hotline: (708) 356-9646
