| | John E. Wolfgram: How the Judiciary Stole the Right to Petition |
 | | In substantive Petition Clause cases, the right to that due process regularity is also a Petition Clause right because Congress may not abridge access to the courts for substantive Petition Clause purposes with special procedural requirements. | | | Effective Rights is the Hallmark of Civilization : The argument that the Right of Petition includes the right of use the compulsory process of law against government to redress grievances with it does not depend on any particular idea of the common law or of history. | | | That is to petition the government for redress through the courts. |

| | Right of Petition -- Time to Sign |
| | The right to Petition is the foundation of Popular Sovereignty and is the direct vehicle for the peaceful, non-violent resolution of matters concerning violations of right, law and limited governance. | | | In 1791, the right to petition became the primary right of the People of the United States of America, expressed in the First Amendment to the federal Constitution. | | | Implicit in our first amendment constitutional right to petition our government for a redress of grievances, is the government's absolute moral and legal obligation to respond honestly and completely to the people's petition. |

| | Petition of Right, Sir Edward Coke |
| | Charles did not like the Petition of Right, but he accepted it because he knew of no other way to persuade Parliament to vote the funds he had demanded. | | | The petition declared unconstitutional certain actions of the king, such as levying taxes without the consent of Parliament, housing soldiers in homes, setting up martial law (military government), and imprisoning citizens illegally. | | | The Petition exhibited to his Majesty by the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, concerning divers Rights and Liberties of the Subjects, with the King's Majesty's royal answer thereunto in full Parliament. |

| | However, the petition is addressed to Attorney General Ashcroft because he has gone on record saying the Second Amendment is an individual right, and he oversees the federal agency that is tasked with enforcing civil rights laws. | | | Do not be misled by the Petition's references to California - the infringements in California are being focused on because of this state's particular legal situation, as outlined in the Petition itself. | | | Again, the Petition has the potential to affect ALL Americans by setting a precedent and/or initiating a U.S. Supreme Court case. |

| | Like freedom of speech, the right to petition is protected by the First Amendment, which is the basis of the American Civil Liberties Union's assertion that Citrus County is violating the Constitution by prohibiting petition-signing in libraries. | | | Battista disagreed with that line of reasoning, saying Citrus County is only limiting place and manner - restrictions that have been legally tried and tested - and not citizens' right to petition. | | | And if they can't regulate the content of speech that would also include the right to petition." |

| | It is worth noting that the Second Amendment of the Bill of Rights specifically mandates that "the right to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED". | | | Pursuant to the constitutional right to keep and bear arms, the Southern Independence Party (www.siptn.org) has initiated a petition which calls for the Governor and legislature to formulate and pass legislation which will declare federal gun laws to be null and void here....and illegal under the Constitution. | | | Over the years, however, this fundamental constitutional right has been gradually eaten away by illegal federal firearms legislation. |
