They have to vilify America’s history to replace it with their Communist Dictatorship.

What was William Penn’s crime?

THE FIRST AMENDMENT
The year was 1670, and the case Bushnell sat on was that of William Penn, who was on trial for
violation of a “Conventicle Act.” This was an elaborate Act which made the Church of
England the only legal church. The Act was struck down by their not guilty vote. Freedom of
Religion was established and became part of the English Bill of Rights and later it became the
First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. In addition, the Right to peaceful assembly was
founded, Freedom of Speech, and also habeas corpus. The first such writ of habeas corpus ever
issued by the Court of Common Pleas was issued to free Edward Bushnell. Later this trial gave
birth to the concept of Freedom of the press.
Had Bushnell and his colleagues yielded to the guilty verdict sought by the judge and
prosecutor, William Penn most likely would have been executed as he clearly broke the law.
HE BROKE THE LAW!
There would have been no Liberty Bell, no Independence Hall, no city of Philadelphia, and no
state called Pennsylvania, for young William Penn, founder of Pennsylvania, and leader of the
Quakers, was on trial for his life. His alleged crime was preaching and teaching a different
view of the Bible than that of the Church of England. This appears innocent today, but then,
one could be executed for such actions. He believed in freedom of religion, freedom of speech
and the right to peaceful assembly. He had broken to government’s law, but he had injured no
one. The four heroic JURORS knew that only when actual injury to someone’s person or
property take place is there a real crime. No law is broken when no injury can be shown. Thus
there can be no loss or termination of rights unless actual damage is proven. Many imposter
laws were repealed as a result of this.
IT IS ALMOST UNFAIR!
The trial made such an impact the every colony but one established the jury as the first liberty
to maintain all other liberties. It was felt that the liberties of people could never be wholly lost
as long as the jury remained strong and independent, and that unjust laws and statutes could not
stand when confronted by conscientious JURORS. JURORS today face an avalanche of
imposter laws. JURORS not only still have the power and the RIGHT, but also the DUTY, to
nullify bad laws by voting “not guilty.” At first glance it appears that it is almost unfair, the
power JURORS have over government, but necessary when considering the historical track
record of oppression that governments have wielded over private citizens

The bass turds are going to have to get rid of the name of their state. With all the “gender” problems this country is having, they should change it to Transylvania. And then there is that flag. The Nazi’s flag isn’t be used officially by anyone anymore. They could adopt that one.

Thank goodness that they are getting rid of Quaker WIlliam Penn.He was dedicated to a eaceful coexistence with everybody.

I am so happy that the Penn statue will be replaced with this fixture already in place in various blue states about the country, where the fascist dems are in control! ( sarc.)

For all of you Republicans getting ready to vote or caucus, remember that it was Nimarata Randhawa Haley that started the cancel culture ball rolling.

From my limited knowledge of Quakers I believe they are both abolitionists and pacifists.

..."For almost 90 years, an unwritten gentlemen's agreement forbade any building in the city from rising above the hat on the Penn statue."

Penn, the founder of Pennsylvania in 1681, was notorious for his amicable relations with the Native tribes of the region

It will not stop. Harris said so. This is Marxist Year Zero stuff. They have won. It’s over. Just a matter of watching it all collapse - slowly at first and then all of the sudden.
