§1983 Claims

⁣https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hOZEn7Ugxk⁣ <br> <br> <br>Alpha Force7 months ago <br> <br>For the people who don't know, 42 USC § 1983 does not grant any remedies nor is it a cause of action on it's own. This statute merely grants federal courts a particular subject matter jurisdiction to hear claims where civil rights were deprived under color of law. Why does this matter? Because you need to be able to specifically state facts as to what was done to you by one of these state actors, and what actual injuries you suffered as a direct result. Private individuals can also be liable under this statute if they are working with government officials. <br> <br>The other big caveat here is knowing where you stand before these courts. If you do not specifically rebut the presumption that you are a US CITIZEN (citizen of the United States) and/or you invoke any amendment to the Constitution beyond XIII (13), you will have an uphill battle. The reason is that there are at least two distinct classes of citizens regarded by the Constitution. If you are a US CITIZEN you have no rights or privileges, the Bill of Rights does not apply to you...you are fully at the mercy of the court. If you choose to be a Citizen of the several States (US Constitution Article IV § 2), you are regarded as one of the people (i.e. We the People). <br> <br>The 14th amendment was created primarily to deceive freed involuntary slaves into becoming voluntary slaves, and the amendments post 13 were never passed in a lawful manner despite claims to the contrary in certain courts.
