I told you that there’s a treaty involved. Heck, there’s probably a slew of treaties involved. You asked me to find them, and I asked you to pay for the research. Isn’t that how your law firm operates?

By what authority does the U.N. have subject matter jurisdiction over U.S. citizens?


By the same authority they think they can use to seize the firearms of private U.S. citizens.

;-)

Ok, you win. I'll answer your question--I'd shoot him. If you had a point to make, let's hear it . . . or is this one of those pretend-conservative-sophistry-exercises?

By the way, have you ever heard of the term "red herring?" Just curious.

I want to know under what authority, what treaty, as you call it, the U.N. has jurisdiction over American citizens’ affairs.

"The Convention Establishing the World Intellectual Property Organization or WIPO Convention, was signed at Stockholm, Sweden, on July 14, 1967 and entered into force on April 26, 1970. As its name suggests, it established the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO). WIPO Convention has 183 Contracting Parties. The United States ratified it on May 25, 1970."

From the Constitution: "...all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land ..."

You made a claim, and I asked you to back up your claim. You refused. That’s how “that” works with you.

When someone else makes a claim, you demand that they provide evidence, and then when they do, you demand it be spoon fed to you, line by line, or else, what was posted is, according to you, without merit. According to you, that’s how “that” works, as well.

Double standards. Animal Farm, anyone?

Thank you for your post. From the Constitution: "...all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land ..."

Therefore, the U.N. has no LEGAL jurisdiction or authority over ANY U.S. citizen, company, enterprise, or entity.

For those of you keeping score out there in FReeperland, the following answers have been given to my question regarding how one enforces a U.S. injunction against a foreign entity:

1. shoot him, and
2. ask about pedofiles in U.N. uniform.

The Constitution would not LEGALLY allow any U.S. citizen to fall under the control of a foreign entity.

And when the UN white vans show up at a U.S. citizen’s home and knocks on their doors because Congress “wrote a treaty” saying it’s “legal”, these liberal thinks that’s compelling evidence that U.S. citizens becomes subjects of the U.N.

Not.

Help the rest of the people reading this thread follow your argument. Are you arguing that there are no treaties involved, and the claim I'm making is false? Do you simply want their names? What?

Better check for a U.N. Heritage site nearby. That’s where the white vans will come from.

I wish I could print out your comment #86 and show it to the partners at your law firm. They’d be chuckling all week.

My point was that few informed U.S. citizens trust the UN. We have very good reason not to.

The situation you described in your question is highly unlikely to happen to anyone who is not a celebrity (except when done by people who know the victim well). I recall several famous people filing lawsuits due to exactly what you described.

What I described is a common tragedy during UN missions. A family who is displaced by a natural disaster or a conflict find themselves victimized by their protectors. Often the girls (most very young) are shunned if they fall pregnant from the attack.

Cyber-squatting is not limited to celebrities. I am not (legally) entitled to create a website named cokeisit.uk, and post pictures of that Lohan creature snorting lines.

“How do you propose enforcing your (U.S.) cease and desist order?”

It isn’t enforcable outside of US territory, as well it shouldn’t be.

“The Constitution would not LEGALLY allow any U.S. citizen to fall under the control of a foreign entity.”

Precicely why it has to be muddied, watered-down and all but deemed irrelevant for our “so-called” leaders to have their way...pretty as they do right now.

“Congrats. You just shut down the U.S. economy.”

You mean to tell me that so much of the US Economy balances on the outside world. Wow! How did our leaders put us in this position? Just Damn!

You know very well there is much more in my posts than what you just wrote. You are cherry picking through the information. Then you accuse others of doing precisely what you are doing.

If you want to have a civil discourse than I am more than pleased to correspond with you.

However; if you insist on behaving like an ass than I am finished with you.
