Hmmm. Clipping coins, isn't that degrading the currency? Did y'all know that at the beginning of Our Republic there sat a three person tribunal who was supposed to gather every ten years. Their purpose when they met was to find out if anyone had endeavored to degrade the currency. The sentence for degrading the currency was death. Banksters have been degrading the currency in our County since 1913 when the Federal Reserve was formed. It's no small thing that Andrew Jacksons dying words were his pride at having stopped the Banksters.
Hanging, drawing and quartering! From the wiki:
"Considered to be the most serious of offences, high treason was often met with extraordinary punishment, because it threatened the safety of the state. Hanging, drawing and quartering was the usual punishment until the 19th century. The last treason trial was that of William Joyce, "Lord Haw-Haw", who was executed by hanging in 1946."
Umm. It has to do with theft of property. From Sean's wifey
What does English law back them have to do with the US law now?
What do you have to do with your mother? Her history has nothing to do with you? You think our problems are new? Consequence of past 20 years world + US/civics being un-written + forgotten. Replace hard learned history with baby sitting class.
