Default Admiralty Law Applies on Land

I was shocked to find that Admiralty Law is applied to the land courts
as well as the sea. http://www.apfn.org/apfn/flag.htm


Oh, Gawd, there are so many logical fallacies in that page that it
should be a Logics 101 assignment. I think I could keep a course going
for several weeks on that one, alone.

By applying that jurisdiction we are all under military tribunal
powers. It's all a big coporate-government takeover!


Do you really trust the politicians, who produce nothing but hot air,
and are not affected adversely by anything they do, over corporations
who are required to have enough efficiency to make a profit?

Personally, I trust enlightened self-interest over "altruism". At least
that's being honest.

And it's nice to see Ron Paul's supporters harking back to his
Libertarian days. A local radio talk-show host I admire was his running
mate about 20 years ago.
