Could you document this? The courts have shown the opposite in fact. Lots of courts have rules a lot of ways. In a Constitutional Republic, however the CITIZEN is Sovereign, above and beyond the State and Federal governments. Under this theory We as citizens get to interpet the laws for ourselves and judge whether they apply to us? I'll have to remember that next time for traffic court. It hasnt worked in the past. The Constitution of the United States uses PERSON and CITIZEN in contexts which make it clear that they meant CITIZEN and PERSON as used in that document. The 5th Amendment, for example, provides that PERSONS get due process, while the first clause of the 14th Amendment specifies what CITIZENS are, then goes beyond that limited definition and extending Equal Protection to ALL PERSONS. So the answer is no then, you cant show like I have. That the Constitution does not extend the right of habeas corpus to noncitizens held outside the sovereign territory of this country This ruling was from a federal appeals court, Im sure it will be appealed to the supreme court. But until then thats the law. Your interpetations of the constituton, while fervid rarely hold water. That might be the opinion of an illiterate who cannot trust their own poor reading comprehension. However, everyone else clearly understand that PERSON and CITIZEN are two different things, and when the word PERSON is used it does not mean CITIZEN, it means PERSON. I don't know HOW anyone considered literate can get that confused. We learned not to mix up words that simple in like first grade. Excepting the Dyslexic kids.
