Nowhere did I state I supported that decision -

Your reply was in response to a simple yes/no question on whether you believed Wickard was in keeping with original meaning. So what you are saying is that you did not answer it.

I ask again, do you think Wickard is in keeping with the original meaning of the Commerce Clause... YES or NO?

I've been off of FreeRepublic as a regular reader and poster almost two years. I came here today to research an issue seemingly unrelated to this thread. My research and that of several others found a few very effective ways to stop a legal proceeding that is a charge against a person for having committed a victimless crime.

If a charge against a person is not founded on an injury to a man, woman or child -- commonly called a victimless crime -- then there's no corpus delicti (body of the crime) for a valid cause of action. Ratification of commencement demands that the prosecutor brings to court an injured man, woman or child and that the injury was allegedly due to an act by the defendant. This would typically be an affidavit of a sworn complaint signed by the injured living person under an oath of perjury. That is the body of the crime.

Do a Google search on "ratification of commencement" and "corpus delicti" and you'll find dozens of court cases that were dismissed because they lacked both of those. You'll also find the requirement for corpus delicti in most State constitutions. To learn more about corpus delicti google Adventures in Legal Land or go to marcstevens.net . Also, while there watch the video Delusions. For ratification of commencement see statusisfreedom.com -- right sidebar. 

Think of how many victimless crimes are being prosecuted: traffic tickets, IRS charges, illicit drug charges, driving an unregistered motor vehicle, driving without a license, and the list goes on.

People are using the fact that there's no injured party (man, woman or child or their property) that has cause to state a claim to get charges dismissed.

These aren't flukes or loopholes. They're people waking up to reality. 

Here's another thing. With most charges the plaintiff is the State. Yet the State cannot testify that it has been injured because the State has no energy. The State is a legal fiction. If a judge says the prosecutor represents the State of ________... Response, "Then I demand the prosecutor produce the document that the State of Texas signed granting the prosecutor power of attorney for the State of Texas." The State can't sign a document anymore than a car, fork or hat can.

Also, know that all lawyers are an officer of the court and their first obligation is to the court. Second in priority is to the bar association and last in line is the defendant. I'll never hire a lawyer to defend me.

Reality check: Government is men and women providing services at the barrel of a gun. If those services were so valuable people would freely avail themselves of them.
