Chapter 7 — The Strawman

One of the fundamental keys to taking your understanding of your rights to the next level, beyond what we have covered to this point in this e-book, is the concept of the ‘Strawman’, or ‘legal person’, as opposed to you, the flesh and blood man or woman.  You need to understand that you are not a ‘person’ according to the private laws passed through the Parliament, you have possession of a ‘person’ by having the birth certificate and, as such, you have identification, but you do not own the Person: the State created it, and you have equity claim to it if you are willing to learn the complexities of that maze.

A person / natural person is, in the eyes of government, a company/ corporation/ body corporate, and is simply a bond registered as a derivative and traded as such on a daily basis on the New York Stock Exchange, in order to justify the printing of the fiat/debt promissory notes printed by the Reserve Bank.  The ‘person’ is equally just a piece of paper (your Birth Certificate), registered with other Government agencies, (Births, Deaths and Marriages and the Bureau of Statistics).

We recommend that you watch the short, 5 minute “Meet Your Strawman” video on the References CD as a brief introduction to this concept if you don’t yet understand it.

This video clearly explains the difference between the ALL CAPS ‘person’ – which is what the Government deals with – and you, the flesh and blood man or woman.

So, let’s break this concept of a ‘person’ down into bite-sized chunks.

Firstly, who, or what, is a ‘person’?

According to John Bouvier’s Law Dictionary, 6th edition:

“2. Used to denote a corporation, which is an artificial person.”

Accordingly, unless there is a specific reference in the statute to a man or woman, then the artificial is the meaning of the word ‘Person’.

Ballentine’s Law Dictionary states:

“Person: where used in Statutes defining crimes, is usually construed to include a corporation, so as to bring corporations within the prohibition of the Statute”.

This is how the Government brings about control over the living being, which is in breach of a court principle ruled on in the case of Rundle v Delaware & Raritan Canal Co., 55 U.S. 80 (1852), which we cover a little later in this chapter.

What is Australia’s definition of a ‘Person’?

According to the law operated in Australia by the Roman “Parliament of Australia”, a person is:

Section 195.1 of A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 defines a ‘person’ as “includes a company”.  The same Act defines ‘company’ as (a) a body corporate: or (b) any other unincorporated association or body of persons: but does not include a Partnership or a non-entity joint venture.”

So now that we understand that a ‘person’ is a corporation, what sort of corporation is it?

A ‘person’ is a constructive trust, created by ‘the State’, also known as ‘The Nation.’

So, what exactly is a ‘trust’?

Ballentine’s Law Dictionary defines a ‘trust’ as “expressing a fiduciary relationship, a confidence between a trustee a beneficiary and a Res.”

So, the State creates the ‘person’ from a man or woman’s name, and forces them into acting as the trustee and fiduciary slave of the trust by requesting the man / woman to supply identification via a birth certificate for the purpose of attaining a driving licence or to be able to have a bank account or start up a billing contract with a utility supplier.

Ballentine’s Law Dictionary defines an ‘express trust’ as “A trust that comes into existence by the execution of an intention to create it by the person having legal and equitable dominion over the property made subject to it.”

Ballentine’s Law Dictionary defines ‘fiduciary’ as:  “Adjective: Held or founded in trust or confidence. Noun:  A trustee, at least where the trust is an express trust.”

Ballentine’s Law Dictionary defines the ‘trustee’ as “That person who holds the legal title to the property subject to the trust, for the benefit of the beneficiary or cestui que trust, with certain powers and subject to certain duties imposed by the terms of the trust, principles of equity, or statutory provision.”

Basically, the States deceive us into acting as trustees of the trusts that have been created in the name, rather than as beneficiaries.

Ballentine’s Law Dictionary defines a ‘beneficiary’ as “A Person who receives a benefit or advantage, a cestui que trust.”

The States now take on the role of beneficiary through the fines, fees, taxes, etc. that they issue in the name of the person and that we, the living, aid and abet the fraud by paying on behalf of the person.

Ballentine’s Dictionary defines a Res’ as an “Abbreviation of resolution, also of reserve” and also as “Latin: The thing. The real thing. A transaction. An affair. The subject matter of a trust in the sense of the property held under trust. The subject matter of an action in the sense of the property or status involved.”

Ballentine’s Dictionary defines a ‘Trust Company’ as “A Corporation, usually involved in general banking business and, in particular, as a compensated trustee of funds or property.  A bank for purposes of regulation.”

Again, the States treats us as banks – when they want more money for something, they simply issue the person with a ‘notice’ and we unwittingly and unknowingly pay it on behalf of the person.

So, what is a Cestui Que Trust?

Cestui: also known as cestuy, is the beneficiary of a trust.

Que:  is an estate

Therefore, a Cestui Que Trust is beneficiary of an estate held in trust:  the person for whose benefit property is held in trust by a trustee.

Accordingly, ‘the person’ that the State created in the name is a Cestui Que Trust.

Many people have heard of the term Cestui Que Vie, but what does it mean?

Ballentine’s Dictionary defines it as “A Person, for the duration of whose lifetime an estate has been granted.”

These terms come from the Cestui Que Vie Act of 1666. Anyone who remembers their high school history will recall that was the year of the Great Fire of London, which was a ‘false flag’ operation, designed to clear the Parliament so that they could pass this outrageous Act.

  •  Chapter 11, 18 and 19 Charles the Second.
  • An Act for Redresse of inconveniencies by want of proofe of the Deceases of Persons beyond the Seas or absenting themselves upon whose lives Estates doe depend.”

If you grab your wallet or your purse and pull out any one of the numerous cards that it contains – whether that be a Driver’s Licence, credit card, etc. – you will see that it has your name printed in all capital letters – eg. JOHN SMITH – yet that is not how you would usually write you name, is it? You would generally write John Smith.

So, why do they do it that way? Remember, earlier, we likened the ‘person’ to a company – if you have a look at any document or identification that has been issued to a company, you will see that it contains the company’s name in all capital letters. It is the same with the ‘person’ – the States use the person to corporatize the name.

The reality is, as you will see below, the States actually own all permutations and combinations of the name, whether it be in upper case, lower case or title case. In fact, each type of case has a different meaning in respect of the legal rights of that entity.

The following is a complete breakdown of the different versions of the name, and the legal rights that each incarnation has, presented in their official, original Latin form:

 Capitus Deminutio

“In Roman Law, this refers to the destruction of the caput (Roman law Person) or the legal personality”.

Capitus Demunitio basically ‘wipes out’ the former individual and puts a new one in its place and, between the old and the new individual there is, legally speaking, nothing in common. A Juristic (person) personality may be thus destroyed in one of three ways:

  • 1) “By loss of the Status libertatus: this is the capitus deminitio maxima, maximum loss of status; a slave.”  Blacks Ninth Edition, page 268.
  • 2) “By the loss of status livitatus: this is the capitus deminitio media, a dimunation of a person’s legal status involving a change of family, while both citizenship and freedom were retained.” Blacks Ninth Edition, page 268.
  • 3) “By severance from the Agnatic family.
  • …..the civil issue of the State was the Agnatic family.
  • Cognates were all persons who could trace their blood to a single ancestor or ancestress.
  • Agnates were those cognates who could trace their connection esclusively through males.”  Black’s Ninth Edition, page 268.

Capitus Diminutio media

Refers to “a medium loss of status through the use of capitalisation”, for example John DOE. This occurs where a Man loses his rights of citizenship, but without losing his liberty.

Capitus Diminutio Maxima

Refers to “the maximum loss of status through the use of capitalisation”, for example: JOHN DOE or DOE JOHN

 This is the highest or most comprehensive loss of status.  This occurred when Man’s condition was changed from one of freedom to one of bondage, when he became a slave.  It swept away with it all rights of citizenship and all family rights.”  Black’s Fourth Edition, 1968

Now that you understand the different versions of your name, we can explain how the States actually create them. Most people realise that they have a Birth Certificate, and many people have a copy of that document. However, people incorrectly believe that their Birth Certificate is the official record of their birth – but it is not.

 There is actually a separate document, called a ‘Live Birth Record’ - that you can request a copy of from your State’s Births, Deaths and Marriages office – that is the actual record of your birth.

If you want to obtain a copy of the Live Birth record – to see the difference between the two documents for yourself – you can do so by amending the Birth Certificate Application form.

You simply cross out the words ‘Birth Certificate’ and insert the words ‘Live Birth Record’. Please note that you cannot do that on-line, however, and you are best off going into your State Births, Deaths and Marriages office personally – to make sure that they understand your request properly – rather than trying to do it via mail.

We have included a copy of an actual Birth Certificate and a Live Birth Record for you in our References section/CD so that you can easily see the distinct difference between these two documents.

The Birth Certificate is what the government creates, from the Live Birth Record, to create the ‘person’ or ‘Strawman’. The Birth Certificate is actually the record of the birth of the person, not you. The Live Birth record is fraudulently converted into a Birth Certificate (Bond) without your consent.

If you refer back to the Banking chapter, you will recall that we explained that a Certificate of Title is currency or money and that is exactly what your Birth Certificate is.

Remember, Section 39 of the Banking Act 1959 states that,  “Australian Currency includes: notes, coins, postal notes, money orders, bills of exchange, promissory notes, drafts, letters of credit and travellers’ cheques payable or expressed in Australian money, and also includes rights and instruments of title to Australian money” (emphasis added)

So, what do the States do with the Birth Certificate and all that ‘money’?

Well, they trade it on the stock market and, currently, your Birth Certificate earns about $250,000 per quarter for the State!

Those who want to understand how this occurs in a more detailed way should be aware of a few entities that you have likely never heard of before, but which are far more powerful and worth far more money that any of the public companies your read about in Forbes magazine or hear about on the news.

We have included a list of some of those corporations for you below, along with an explanation of what they do:

Cede & Company

  • Cede and Company is the sole registered shareholder, through its parent company the D.T.C.C., which is a nominee for trading securities. This is the company that trades your Birth Certificates.

 D.T.C.C. – Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation

  • The D.T.C.C. owns and controls Wall Street.
  • The D.T.C.C. owns, through its subsidiaries, the vast majority of all private, public, civil, commercial, financial and real assets in the country through the D.T.C.
  • The D.T.C.C. has a subsidiary called Mortgage Backed Securities Clearing Corporation which owns over 99% of all mortgages around the World.
  • Total value of these securities exceeds 4.6 Quadrillion dollars.

D.T.C. – The Depository Trust Company

  • The Depository Trust Company is owned by the D.T.C.C. and is a member of the Federal Reserve Bank.
  • The D.T.C. owns the equity stock of the 12 member banks of the Federal Reserve Bank and the Reserve banks around the World.
  • They are: Citibank, Morgan Stanley, U.B.S., Wells Fargo, Bank of New York, J.P. Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq, Bank of America, Merill Lynch and the Deutsche Bank.

Federal Reserve Bank

  • The Federal Reserve was created through the Congress, but it is a self-regulating organisation answerable only to itself, which is why it has never been audited.
  • All governments around the world who borrow from a Reserve Bank are expected to maintain a constant debt, which is a never-ending cycle of ever-increasing debt. This is something we detailed in our Banking chapter.
  • Governments reliant upon reserve currency need to collateralise (secure) the debt owed through the Social Security System (Social Security number, Medicare number, cusip number) where the people pay the tax to the Reserve Bank to justify the interest owed – but only the interest, not the principal borrowed.

These are the primary entities that cause you, through the ‘person’ that has been created in your name, to exist as a slave to the banks, as we covered in our Banking chapter.

So, now that you truly understand the distinct difference between you and your person, how can you use that information to your advantage?

As with most legal arguments, it really comes down to the words that you use. The tricky part is retraining yourself after using some really basic words for so long.

Let’s have a look at some key words, their definitions, and the issue with using them in the future:

You, Your and We

  • ‘You’ and ‘Your’, as pronouns, relate to ownership.
  • ‘We’, in an editorial sense is used to avoid the personal, or to represent the collective viewpoint.

‘I’

  • “The Roman numeral for 1.  The personal pronoun in the singular of the nominative case.  Sufficiently connected with the person executing the instrument where it appears in the body of a deed, that he is bound.”  Ballantine’s Law Dictionary
  • “The initial letter of the word instituta, as in the Institute of Justinia, which is a Roman institution.” Black’s Law Dictionary, 3rd edition.

If you watch any footage of the Royal Family or listen to interviews with them, you will quickly realise that they never us the word ‘I’ – they always use the words ‘we’ or ‘one’ – such as, ‘we are not amused’, ‘one does not partake in such activities’. They don’t just use those words to sound posh, they use them so as to avoid any connection to their person.

So, how should do we refer to ourselves?

Whenever you are confronted by, or when corresponding with, any of the corporate administrative offices that make up so-called Government, we recommend that you use the following phrase:

We are that Person’s Personal Representative of Person ……… in his/her private capacity in being.”

Okay, let’s break that phrase down so that you understand the importance of each and every word in it.

We

  • Refers to the many entities that make up the trust they have created, for example: Trusts have a grantor, settlor, executor, administrator, beneficiary and trustee, to name but a few, so you could be referring to any one particular entity, but not the trustee fiduciary, as that is the State-created slave.

That

  • Referring to another entity – being the person - not being claimed by the user and not within their obligation.

Personal Representative

  • A very powerful entity within any trust that can only be heard in a court room situation in a court called a court of Chancery, which has in it the Queen’s or King’s Bench, where only a man or woman, living being, can be seen.
  • Also, in trust law, a Personal Representative acts as an executor and administrator (please refer to the Administrative Probate Act and also the Trust Act in your State).

In Private Capacity

  • Meaning “in the Man’s private capacity” which their corporations have no jurisdiction over, as they are implementing obligations on Persons (artificial) through their private law in their “Public” through the District of Columbia in Washington D.C.

If you go to our References section/CD, you will find a very important case in the matter of  Rundle v Delaware & Raritan Canal Co., 55 U.S. 80 (1852) - That case dictates that, “A corporation, therefore, being not a natural person, but a mere creation of the mind, invisible and intangible, cannot be a citizen of a State, and cannot fall within the terms or the power of the above mentioned article, and can therefore neither plead nor be impleaded in the courts of the United States” (emphasis added)

What this means is that no corporate entity can claim any power or authority over a living, breathing man or woman and that is why they brought in Birth Certificates, to create corporations out of the living breathing men and women, in order to ‘do business’ them. When you walk into a court and they call out the name, they are actually calling out the person’s name but you respond to it and, therefore, you have joined yourself with the person and thus, they now have power over you and can make orders against you that you have to fulfil, on behalf of the person.

In Being

  • Designates life, the living, which the corporate system has no jurisdiction over unless there has been damage caused by one to another via the Ten Commandments found in the King James Version of the Bible, not the New King James or the New International Version of the Bible, as the latter has been corrupted by the Vatican, also known as the Rulers of Evil.

If you want to learn more about how you can put the Strawman concept into practice in your day-to-day life, we recommend listening to this interview, which details a step-by-step account of how a woman in Queensland separated herself from her ALL CAPS name when the police pulled her over, and was sent on her way.

We also recommend watching this short video, which is an excellent example of how you can stand up for your rights, once you fully understand them. Despite the threats from the cop, this individual left the scene, in his automobile, without a valid driver’s licence and without any vehicle registration or insurance.  What an incredible victory against ‘the system’!

As you can see, once you truly get your head around the distinct separation between you and the Strawman, or person, you can use it when dealing with the police, the ATO and even in court.

Please don’t be put off by the complexity of this chapter, though: we have been studying this concept for well over 10 years, so please don’t expect to fully understand it by simply reading through a single chapter in an e-book. Whilst we have gone into significant detail in this chapter, there is still a lot to learn and to practise before you will be ready to make full use of this information.

If you are after more detailed information and training on this concept, be sure to refer to our Seminar page for any upcoming seminars and/or advanced workshops that we are conducting in a city near you.
