From edf4e6695e6370ac2d3ed400e5bd3559f5273761 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: freestateme <101294419+freestateme@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Wed, 9 Mar 2022 13:46:43 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] Create master-file-00.00.01.4.txt MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit MASTER (was slipstream-compile_all) (now with changes) 2022CEy2m9d 1030hh PST v00.00.01.4 --- --- --- Section 1 Article 1 AMENDS ORIGINAL PROVISION TO SECTION 1 OF ARTICLE 1 IN THE Oregon CONSTITUTION, ADDS NUMBERING AND NEW SUB-SECTIONS ON POWER INHERENTLY RESIDING WITHIN THE PEOPLE, DUTY TO REBEL, and RIGHT OF REVOLUTION (1) We the People of the State of Oregon find and declare, that in order to ensure the liberties and necessary security of the rights of nature in we members of humankind, and to ensure consistency with respect to the fair application of natural law to all persons, who are principally bound to abide by its cornerstones, we, as with all People, are independent, and to be our own masters over our selves, as each one of us shall so desire, as each one of us is endowed by the universe with free will and Autonomy by our nature, being slaves to nobody (and at most, upon our discretion, indentured servants for a fixed number of years as we may so desire and consent), insofar as each of us commit no act of natural crime or otherwise perpetrate injustice upon another, their property, or any other rights. So long as a person commits no fundamental evil against another, they are rendered free to do with themself, their property, and all other rights, and to dispose of all these as they shall see fit, given the direct stipulation that they not interfere with the equal rights in another to do the same with their own self. Given this essential Freedom in Liberty, the ability to protect these rights with impunity must be afforded defense by law, and additionally be secured by members of Government where they are so able to benefit and safeguard the People, when they are able to do so. The natural power in a person to do as they please with themself within the limit to allow others to do the same with theirself, shall also freely permit without license or need of let by another to afford their own self-security and self-defense, resistance against injustice, rebellion against tyranny, revolution against arbitrary and/or illegitimate Government, and the Liberty to perform all needful actions and implement all necessary tools and devices to affect a sufficient response to any usurpation as it may so arrise from time to time. Given that these foundational precepts are fundamental to our sovereignty as Individuals, we the People of Oregon, as Citizens of the United States, residents of the World, occupants of the Universe, and members of reality, now do establish, ordain, and enact the following provisions to be incorporated into the constitution of Oregon, and Command our Government to abide by its authority and directives in favour of the rights of Persons. (2) We find and declare that all People are endowed with Universal, Fundamental, Inherent, Inalienable, Natural Rights, among those are the rights to Life and Health, Liberty/Freedom and Autonomy, Self-security [and the freedom to lawfully and justly secure others whom mutually consent] and Self-Defense [and the freedom to lawfully and justly defend others whom mutually consent], Privacy, Property, and the Pursuit of Happiness, and that when they form a social compact, are to be equally respected in these rights, with no one Individual or group of Individuals superior in right or power to any other Individual; that all power stems from the rights inherent in the People, and that all free [civil] governments are founded upon their (the People's) authority, and instituted for their Liberty, Peace, Safety, and Happiness; and they have at all times a right to alter, reform, or abolish the government in such manner as they may think proper. (3) As all power is originally inherent in and consequentially derived from the People, therefore, all members of government, whether Judicial, Legislative, or Executive are their trustees and servants; and at all times, in a legal way are accountable to them; All members of Government [including but not limited to public officials and officers] are servants of the whole community, and not of any one group thereof, except of course for such community at large/whole; (4) Rebellion against tyranny. being an essential Pillar to uphold Freedom/Liberty, in order to Promote the Natural as well as Constitutional rights, and Secure Justice, a Citizen's Natural Duty to rebel shall be secured by law, which itself refers to the essential duty of any Person, but Particularly the Citizenry, to rebel against unjust laws, orders, and actions that are contrary to, de-valuate, or which do violate any of the natural rights or natural justice, such as, but not limited to Life and Health, Liberty/Freedom and Autonomy, Self-security and Self-defense [and the freedom to secure or defend others], Privacy, Property/Estate, and the Pursuit of Happiness, which are fundamental in themselves and inalienable. This duty entails that People dismiss, oppose, forcibly resist, and correct any violations of natural and constitutional rights, as well as such justice, against any unjust law, order, or action of any level of government, or any contractor/s beneath them, in any jurisdiction, including from imminent threats against Individuals, such as Standing Armies or Police Forces erected to enforce violations of volition. (5) All People recognize the right [and duty] of revolution; that is, the right [and duty] to refuse allegiance to, and to resist the government, when its tyranny and inefficiency, oppression, and/or usurpation are great and un-endurable. Resistance to injustice is the consequence of the other rights of Individuals. The doctrine of non-resistance against arbitrary Power and Injustice is absurd, slavish, repugnant to a free People, and destructive of the good and happiness of humankind. Whenever the government endeavor to take away and destroy the lives and/or property of the People, or reduce them to slavery under arbitrary power and/or absolute dominion, they put themselves into a state of war with the People, who are thereupon absolved from any further obedience, and are left to the common refuge, which is provided for all People universally, against force and violence. Whensoever therefore the Government shall transgress this fundamental rule of society; and either by Ambition, Fear, Folly, or Corruption, endeavor to grasp themselves, or put into the hands of any other an absolute power over the lives, liberties, properties/estates, and/or any other right of the People; by this breach of trust they forfeit the power the People had put into their hands for quite contrary ends, and it devolves to the People, who have a right to resume their original Liberty. Those who incite, dispatch, Sign, or Execute Arbitrary or Unjust Acts or Orders, or cause them to be executed, must be punished seriously. The decision to support, aid, assist, or oppose any foreign government or revolutionary movement will be reserved to the People, as Individuals. --- Section 9 Article 1 AMENDS Oregon CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 1 SECTION 9 WITH MORE STRINGENT REQUIREMENTS FOR DETENTIONS, WARRANTS, AND ARRESTS No law shall violate the right of Persons to be secure in their Persons, Personal and Private information/records which include but are not limited to medical and psychological information/records, papers, homes, effects, location as well as network information, electronic and radio data (including but not limited to: Meta-data) as well as private communications, from [any and all] un-reasonable and un-warranted searches, seizures and storage; Nor shall any person be stopped or detained unreasonably, neither but upon probable cause, for the sole purpose of temporarily retaining them while a warrant may be secured to proceed in search or seizure; and no warrant to search any place, seize any person or thing, or access electronic/radio data or communications, shall issue without particularly describing the place to be searched, the person or thing to be seized, tracked, or put under surveillance, or the data or communication to be accessed or stored, as nearly as may be; nor without a modicum of credible evidence for which it is apparent that the accused has likely committed an offense against the rights of another person (which evidence may include or be the statement of a witness sworn under oath by pain and penalty of law for its falsification by any measure or degree), which shall be presented to a judge of competent jurisdiction to provide authorization. Neither shall Oregon pass or enforce any law abridging or infringing the right of the People to encrypt their documents, effects, data, and communications. --- JuryReform Initiative Draft v1.3.2 AMENDS Oregon CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 1 SECTION 16 by SPLITTING UP AND ADDING NEW NUMBERED PROVISIONS TO ENHANCE PROTECTIONS AGAINST EXCESSIVE FINES AND CRUEL OR UNUSUAL PUNISHMENTS, REFINE JURY POWER TO JUDGE LAW AND FACT, AND, PERMIT JURY TO ACQUIT CRIMINAL DEFENDANT PROVEN GUILTY and PERMIT JURY TO STRIKE DOWN UNCONSTITUTIONAL OR UNJUST LAWS (1) Excessive bail shall not be required, or excessive fines be imposed, neither excessive terms of incarceration, or any other excessive form of criminal punishment, nor any torturous, cruel, degrading, or unusual treatments or punishments be inflicted. (2) There shall be proportionality of a punishment for a crime, in the forfeiture of property for the magnitude of a felony, and in the fines for both felonies and misdemeanors, weighing on an individual basis given the facts and circumstances under which a crime took place, fitting a specific punishment to serve the needs of the community for protection against recidivism while at the same time without applying excessive punishment, to achieve reasonable outcomes for the equal interests of both the convicted and their victims. (3) It is the natural right of every citizen of the state of Oregon, when serving on a civil-trial or criminal-trial jury, to judge both the law and the facts pertaining to the case before the jury, in order to determine whether justice will be served by applying the law to the defendant. It is mandatory that all jurors be informed of this right. Before the jury hears a case, and again before jury deliberation begins, the court shall inform jurors of their rights in these words: "As jurors, your first responsibility is to decide whether the prosecution has proven beyond a reasonable doubt every element of the civil/criminal liability/charge. If you decide that the prosecution has proven beyond a reasonable doubt every element of the civil/criminal liability/charge but you cannot in good conscience support a liable/guilty verdict, you are not required to do so. To reach a verdict which you believe is just, each of you has the right to consider to what extent the []defendant's[] actions have actually caused harm or otherwise violated your sense of right and wrong. If you believe justice requires it, you may also judge both the merits of the law under which the []defendant[] has been [held] liable/charged and the wisdom of applying that law to the defendant. Accordingly, for each charge against the []defendant[], even if review of the evidence strictly in terms of the law would indicate a liable/guilty verdict, you have the right to find the defendant not liable/guilty. The court cautions that with the exercise of this right comes the full moral responsibility for the verdict you bring in." As part of their oath, the jurors shall affirm that they understand the information concerning their rights which this section requires the court to give them, and that no party to the trial may be prevented from encouraging jurors to exercise this right. For the jurors to be so informed is declared to be part of the defendant's fundamental right to a fair trial by jury, and failure to conduct any criminal trial in accordance with this section shall not constitute harmless error, and shall be grounds for a mistrial. No potential juror may be disqualified from serving on a jury because they express willingness to judge the law or its application, or to vote according to their conscience. (4) Juries retain the right to vote their conscience, and the power to strike down as void and unlawful any laws in conflict with the constitution, with the duty to elaborate upon the decision for the benefit of the People, and the responsibility to do so mindfully and only upon serious consideration through their deliberations. --- AMENDS Article 1 Section 11 of the Oregon CONSTITUTION by numbering and altering the previous provision, and adding a new [numbered] provision beneath which both: REQUIRE UNANIMOUS JURY DECISIONS and REQUIRE A FULLY INFORMED JURY (1) In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall have the right to public trial by an impartial jury in the county in which the offense shall have been committed; to be heard by himself and counsel; to demand the nature and cause of the accusation against him, and to have a copy thereof; to meet the witnesses face to face, and to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor; provided, however, that any accused person, in other than capital cases, and with the consent of the trial judge, may elect to waive trial by jury and consent to be tried by the judge of the court alone, such election to be in writing; provided however, that they shall only be found guilty by unanimous verdict, and not otherwise; provided further, that the existing laws and constitutional provisions relative to criminal prosecutions shall be continued and remain in effect as to all prosecutions for crimes committed before the taking effect of this amendment. (2) Criminal defendants have the right to be served justice by a fully informed jury, who know all of their Rights, Powers, Duties, and Responsibilities, as well as who are learned and understand all basic legal rules and procedures as well as definitions, and whom know all relevant laws and case rulings, as they are applicable to the case at hand. --- Section 27 article 1 AMENDS Oregon CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 1 SECTION 27 BY CHANGING AND ENHANCING TEXT AS WELL AS ADDING NUMBERED SUB-SECTIONS FOR FURTHERING THE RIGHT TO OWN AND/OR POSSESS/KEEP, CARRY, MANUFACTURE AND/OR MODIFY, TRANSFER AND/OR GIVE/RECEIVE, BUY AND/OR SELL, AND USE AND/OR BEAR ARMS (1) All Persons are by nature free and independent, and have certain inherent and Inalienable rights, among these are Life and Health, Liberty/freedom and autonomy, Privacy, Property/Estate, and the Pursuit of Happiness, and the right to own and/or possess/keep, carry, manufacture and/or modify, transfer and/or give/receive, buy and/or sell, and use and/or bear arms (meaning armaments, ammunitions, armors, and others), for security and defense of self, family, home, property, business, hunting, recreational use, and all other just purposes, and such rights shall not be restricted, denied, suspended, abridged, obstructed, impacted, or in any other way infringed by the government or any sub-division or affiliation thereof.

(3) In addition to the already existing right to self-security and self-defense [and the Freedom to secure and defend others upon voluntary consent] of Property and Person, and any natural or Constitutional right, and to unlimitedly access [in all just ways (meaning without violating the rights of another),] all such needful equipment and other resources to secure these, all free People shall at all times have the right to own and/or possess/keep, transfer and/or give/receive, buy and/or sell, and use and/or bear non-lethal defensive tools in their just course of daily life. (4) A well regulated Militia, composed of the body of the people, being necessary for the best security of a free State and a sovereign society composed of independent individuals, the [fundamental] right of the People [as Individuals] to keep and bear Arms for lawful public purposes, and justible private purposes, is elevated above all other interests, and shall not be restricted, denied, suspended, abridged, obstructed, impacted, or otherwise infringed[], but no one, whether conscientiously, morally, or [a]spiritually/[a]religiously, or otherwise objecting to their bearing arms, shall be compelled to render military service in person[]; People [as Individuals] are ensured the right to own and/or possess/keep, carry, manufacture and/or modify, buy and/or sell, and use and/or bear a diversity of arms in all variations, powers, and capacities, meaning any weapon [including but not limited to blunt or spiked knuckles or clubs, blades, and firearms or missiles], destructive device, ammunition of offense, or [?]projectile propellant[?], whether black powder fired or otherwise, whether fully-automatic, select-fire, semi-automatic, revolver, pump-action, level-action, single-shot, multi-barrel (double, triple, quadruple, etc...), crank operated, or elsewise, as well as any armor of defense, including but not limited to body and vehicular armor, irregardless of the arms' common use with the Military or Militia of Greenway or the several States, whether openly or concealed, in times of peace or war[], for defense of their lands, homes, vehicles/crafts domicile, themselves at home or abroad, Greenway or their State, to hunt, and for sport, and the freedom to fowl and hunt game is seasonable times on the lands they hold, and on all other lands therein not enclosed; -And no free person shall ever for any reason be debarred of arms within their own lands or tenements[]. As such, the people naturally do have the right to bear arms for the defense of themselves, and upon their own consent, in assistance to the State, but the Military shall be kept in strict subordination to the civil power. (5) The right of the People to repel invasion of, or attack on, their property, shall freely enable the owners or right holders of real estate to free and openly erect and set [incapacitating, wounding, or death] trip/trigger wires, buttons, or any other trip/trigger sensor, snares, or entanglements, traps, and sentries on their lands and Structure's Premesis, as well as to enhance their vehicle/s or craft/s with such affixments or modifications, so long as they are justible deterrents or weapons, as well as that all reasonable steps are taken to prevent the accidental injury or slaughter of a/n authorized Individual/s or of a/n innocent bystander/s. The property owner shall be criminally liable for any accidental or deliberate injury or slaughter of [an] Authorized Individual/[s]'s or Innocent Bystander/[s]'s through fault of their own.

(8) In the context of the non-aggression principle, "aggression is defined as threatening or initiating any forcible interference with an individual in the exercise of their rights including their Property. The non-aggression principle does not forbid forceful defense. --- Section 33 article 1 AMENDS Oregon CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISION IN ARTICLE 1 SECTION 33 ABOUT THE ENUMERATION OF RIGHTS BEING NOT-EXCLUSIVE, AND THAT ALL RIGHTS ARE RESERVED TO THE PEOPLE This enumeration of rights, and privileges, shall not be construed to impair, deny, or disparage others retained by the People, which rights are inalienable, and which privileges shall be equally provided for Citizens upon the same terms, throughout the several Counties of Oregon. All of those other rights, and privileges, which are not specifically mentioned, or otherwise alluded to, in this constitution, are still reserved to the People in all cases. The existence of an Individual's rights, or privileges, are not contingent upon governmental recognition of them. --- section 47 article 1 amend of Oregon constitution (slip-streamed): AMENDS Oregon CONSTITUTION by creating a new section (47) which: SETS FORTH THAT PUBLIC ADMINISTRATION IS CIVIL SERVICE, ENUMERATES RIGHT OF RESISTANCE, and ENUMERATES RIGHT OF DEFENSE (possibly more, being slip-streamed right now) - (1) The Agents and members of the Public Administration, and those contracting beneath the government [while in actual service], are intended to operate as a civil service, and shall at all times be answerable and held accountable to "the People" of Oregon as Public Servants. (2) It is proper for People to Protect themselves, their families, and others from intruders and attackers without fear of Prosecution or civil action for acting in defense of themselves and others, including against their property. Each Individual has the Inalienable [Natural] right of Self-Defense against the Initiation of [unjust] force, or any other form of aggression. No Individual or association of Individuals, however constituted, has the right to initiate force against any other individual; No one may rightfully threaten, or commit, the initiation of aggression/offensive_violence/[un-just]_force against another Person or their Property; Written, verbal, and physical threats of imminent Physical Violence are sufficient justification for a defensive response in a physical manner; violence may be [justly] employed only against the Individual/s who threaten/s to or do/es commit such violence, that is, only defensively against the aggressive violence of another or others; No violence may be [justly] employed against [a] non-aggressor/s. (3) Everyone possesses an inherent right to defend their natural rights, including [upon their discretion] with lethal force, as may be prescribed by this constitution and the laws made in accordance therewith. All Persons shall have secured by law their right of self-defense as well as defense of their property, along with any natural and constitutional rights, and for other persons who are under a direct and real threat, against initiators of aggression, including any Agent of the Public Administration acting unlawfully or in error, regardless of if it is within the discharge of their duties or performed in good faith. This right shall include the right to resist any law or order that infringes on their rights, freedoms, or guarantees, and to use sufficient force to repel or effect an end to any violation of themself or other true aggression against them. This shall also include the right to resist any assualts against them constituting an unlawful arrest or a illegal restraint, as well as to escape wrongful detentions and false imprisonment. There is no duty to retreat before engaging in defense of one's or another's rights, and nobody shall be charged with a criminal offense for standing their ground in the face of an attack against them, their property, or interference with the exercise of any right, freedom, or guarantee. People convicted for resisting unlawful arrest shall be released from imprisonment immediately and have their charges connected to such resistance expunged, including any attempted or successful defensive force upon the assaulting officer/s attempting to affect the illegal arrest, before or after any illegal entry by the offender, if there be any. (4) All Persons shall have the right of self-defense as well as of defense of their Property, Person, as well as any Natural and Constitutional rights, and for others who are under a direct and real threat, against initiators of aggression. Defense of property is defense of self, as it it a defense of one's rights. A person is justified in using physical force upon another Person to defend themself or others, or their Property, as well as any Natural and Constitutional rights from what they believe beyond irrefutable proof to be the use or imminent use of aggression or [un-just]_force/attack/offensive_violence; In defending, a person may use whatever force they deem necessary, including with maximum escalation, without need to alert anyone to their injury, or warn about their iminient use of defensive force first. Any violations of natural or Constitutional rights may be met with lethal force, upon the discretion of the victim, regardless of if it was an accident/error, even when performed in good faith without malice. As with any form of aggression against another, whether theft, fraud, the initiation of [un-just]_force/attack/offensive_violence, interference with any right, or the imminent threat therof, the law shall not require the assailed Part[y]/ies to weigh with great nicety/signification the probable extent of the attack upon them or another, and they may freely decide to use the most violent means against their or another's assailant, as the defender shall deem proper, even to the extent of ending the assailant's life. A defender cannot, as a matter principle, be criminally charged or held civilly liable for any act or response to an aggressor or initiator of[un-just]_force/attacker/violator, nor for wounding the aggressor. The People, as a popular sovereign, at all times, are ensured this right, without need of restraint, as a means of their Independence. (5) The Castle Doctrine and defense of a person's lands, is a legal doctrine of ancient origins that designates a Person's abode, or any legally occupied place such as a vehicle/craft or home, and the property they own or lawfully control, regardless of whether it is where the abode is parked or placed, is a place in which that Person has protections and immunities permitting one, in certain circumstances as laid forth by law, to use force [including deadly force] to defend oneself or one's property against an intruder, free from legal prosecution for the consequences of the force used; Persons residing in or visiting this Commonwealth have a right to expect to remain unmolested on or within their land, homes, or vehicles/crafts. No Person should be required to surrender their personal safety to a criminal, nor should a Person be required to needlessly retreat in the face of intrusion or attack outside the person's dwelling or vehicle/craft. (6) No Person should be required to surrender their perosnal safety to a Criminal, nor should a person be required to needlessly retreat in the face of intrusion or attack outside the Person's Dwelling or Vehicle/Craft, nor their business/es. (7) No law shall abridge the right of self-defense and defense of others against initiators of aggression, including, but not limited to, any members of the Public Administration where acting unlawfully or in error. (8) Everyone shall possess the right to resist any law or order given by the Public Administration or its members and contractors beneath the government [in actual service], if the Person/s reasonably believe the law or order to be in opposition to the will of "the People", or that which infringes on their rights, freedoms, or guarantees, whether natural or otherwise, and that they may furthermore refuse to co-operate with them as well for the same reason, as well as to use sufficient [including if needed, lethal] force to repel any aggression, as may seem to them to be reasonably necessary. (9) Everyone may resist unlawful arrest and unlawful detention, as well as escape false imprisonment, without legal consequence, up to the point of taking an arresting officer's or other person's life if reasonably necessary to sufficiently repel the assault and battery, or kidnapping, constitution the arrest or illegal confinement. So too shall be secured everyone's right to repel unlawful entry by any public servant, including up to using lethal force to defend land or premises from illegal invasion. (10) Upon enactment of this section, those who are, or were previously charged or sentenced under statutes or rulings in conflict with and contrary to this section shall be immediately released from imprisonment, automatically granted immediate pardon and expungement for the false crimes for which they were convicted of, + receive full pardon and repreive from the gubernor, be resituted for the entire duration of time in which they were imprisoned, detained, or incarcerated, and all Statutes and Instructions to the Jury, and any judicial ruling contrary to it shall immediately become invalid on their face, and be null and void, with no more effect. (11) For the purposes of this constitution, "Aggression" is in the context to the [mutual] non-aggression principle, and shall be defined as threatening or initiating any forcible interference with an Individual, or Individual's property, or the exercise of any of their rights, freedoms, or guarantees therewith. The non-aggression principle does not forbid defensive posturing or forceful defense. "Force" (or Compulsion/Coercion/Extortion) is defined as Taking/Damaging/destroying or threatening to Take/Damage/Destroy someone else's Life and Health, Liberty/Freedom and Autonomy, Self-Security [and freedom to secure others'] and Self-Defense [and freedom to defend others'], Privacy, Property, and the Pursuit of Happiness. --- right-to-strikedown-unjust-laws AMENDS OREGON CONSTITUTION TO ENABLE STRIKEDOWN OF UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAWS, ACTS, AND ORDERS BY ADDING A NEW SECTION (SECTION 48) We the People of Oregon, reserve to our State Legislatures and Courts, as well as to ourselves as Electors by the ballot, and as members of the Jury, the Power to nullify and strike down Unconstitutional and unjust Federal and State laws, acts, and orders, as well as the power to grant amnesty and exoneration to Individuals trapped under their crushing weight, and provide pardon, expungement, exoneration, and restitution. --- explanation rule for constitution amendment AMENDS OREGON CONSTITUTION TO REQUIRE EXPALINATION OF LAWS/ACTS/REGULATIONS/ORDERS/RULES/ORDINANCES TO AS TO WHAT EMPOWERS THEM AND WHY THE LAW IS WHAT IT IS, BY ADDING A NEW SECTION (SECTION 49) Every law, act, regulation, order, rule, or ordinance must contain an explanation as to the constitutional provisions empowering its enactment, and must expalin in clear/un-ambiguous, coherent, concise, and in a a plain-english way, the "why", as to "why it is the way it is?", according to the customs of law applicable to the jurisdiction under which it is erected. The drafters, ratifiers, amenders, and potential replacers of the constitution of Oregon ar encouraged to explain every principle, process, and prescription of law found within it, and to incorporate into it, accept it, or to abandon it, according to their explanations for the same. --- conform statutes laws to constitutional civil-common-contract law Any Statute opposed to this State's or the United States Constitution, the Roman civil law, English common law, or Contract law, shall be null and void, and struck down immediately, with all those imprisoned underneath them released, granted amnesty, pardoned, expunged, and resituted, and left open to press their own civil suit or launch a criminal complaint action against their aggressor of government or its actors; --- abolish_taxes (1) We the People of Oregon hereby declare that all portions of our constitution which refer to taxation power be struck down, and for a new series of sections be erected in their place, which incorporate the following as an alternative to a taxation based system, whereby taxation will hereby be abolished permanently within Oregon so long as this provision of law and this section shall apply as the law of the land, and instead the government shall run its own business for providing Goods and Services for sale to the Public and others upon the terms set by the People. (2) For it is surely the plunder of an Individual's property, the fruits of their labor, and the freedom of volition to voluntarily transact as the Individual, whose rights are affected, with their non-transferable non-negotiable right to revocable fully-informed xxx consent, may so see fit, in which the collective sucks the lifeblood of the Individual's productivity, for the State's outrageous justifications for their demands, having imposed force upon a non-aggressing Sovereign person, who had committed no injustice by exercising their inalienable right ot property, Taxation by Oregon or on its behalf is hereby abolished; -And, Being that taxation is the legalized plunder of the fruits of ones labor and productivity, the blood letting by venomous leeches which suck the sustenance out of the people, and have them converted into meat to be fed to their brethren, taxation by Oregon or on its behalf is hereby abolished permanently. (3) Oregon shall establish a Department of Goods and Services, and shall have Power to establish facilities, as well as procure resources and labor for the manufacturing and retailing of goods or services desired by the public, to pay for State expenditures that would had otherwise been funded on collected taxes, which Public Sector businesses shall be operated autonomously in like manner to that of a citizen-owned co-op and worker's council [bicameral stakeholder system] where the people's co-op house is the representative branch, and the worker council is the senatorial power, in a profit-for-the-public-good venture; but it shall not have the power to conscript the resources or labor of any person; nor shall it use tax dollars to establish or maintain itself, meaning that the 'Public sector' businesses established must be operated on their own revenues at their own expense, with any profits not re-invested into them placed into the general fund of their State; The States are encouraged to accept donations from the People, designated by the People, for the purpose of funding the Department of Goods and Services; 'Public sector' business shall be subject to the same laws and regulations as Private business, and neither shall hold an exclusive monopoly to operate within Greenway. The People shall be free to petition through Initiative or Referendum to engage/produce, query, or cease any Operation, action, Product, manufacture, method, or other mode of execution in the Department of Goods and Services as so alike shall the Legislature if in conformity to the will of the People's Just Authority. (4) Citizens can elect to have any portion of their Individual proportional control of Public funds which are under their direction, allocated to government department[s] and program[s] as they see fit/suitable, and optionally towards reducing the debt of the Nation and/or their State, if such debt exists, as they decide, without the possibility of diversion to non-Individual-specified alternative "absorbing deparment[s]/program[s]". Each department and program shall have spending caps to be determined by the Legislative branch. Once a spending cap is met for any particular department or program, the Citizen's Individual proportional control of Public funds which are under their direction can then be allocated to one of the other departments or programs that they the Individual Citizen may have chosen. --- oregon sovereignty package limits on power (preliminary) v00.00.00.1 (1) The Powers of the Oregon Public Administration shall be derived solely from the provisions of the Constitution of the United States of America, or this Constitution, and neither the Public Administration, nor any agent or Member thereof shall possess any inherent authority; the Public Administration shall neither have nor exercise any power other than those expressly conferred upon it by this constitution or the constitution of the United States of America, in conjunction to what is set forth in this pact. (2) All Powers delegated in this constitution are constrained to be exercised only for a proper, or reasonable, rational, and legitimate, Public Purpose, as a fiduciary trust for the general benefit of all People of Oregon and not for the Special Benefit of any part of them, partially but not completely stated in the Preamble of our own State as well as the United States of America.

Relative to the people, no branch of government has inherent or reserved powers, implicit or assumed prerogatives, or presupposed attributes of sovereignty. Powers must be expressly granted to government by the People, and the extent and range of such powers shall be strictly and narrowly construed. [] [] The Powers of the Public Administration shall be derived solely from the provisions of this Constitution, or for the States, by their respective Constitutions, and neither the Public Administration, nor any Agent or Member thereof, shall possess any inherent authority; the Public Administration shall neither have nor exercise any power other than those expressly conferred upon it by this Constitution, or for the States, by their respective Constitutions, in conjunction to what is set forth in this pact. All powers delegated in this Constitution are constrained to be exercised only for a proper, or reasonable, rational, and legitimate, public purpose, as a fiduciary trust for the general benefit of all the People and not for the special benefit of any part of them, partially but not completely Stated in the Preamble. No power is plenary or without limits, and no power may be extended to accomplish a purpose without amendment. Relative to the people, no branch of government has inherent or reserved powers, implicit or assumed prerogatives, or presupposed attributes of sovereignty. Powers must be expressly granted to government by the people, and the extent and range of such powers shall be strictly, narrowly construed. The Constitution of Oregon shall be interpreted in good faith and literally (within strict constructionism), as far as it does not produce any absurd result, with due regard to the original intention behind its provisions; in case of doubt, consideration may be given to any statements or notes related to the text made before or at the time of its adoption. On all constitutional issues precedents shall be regarded as only perhaps persuasive and never binding. Constitutional text shall be construed only on historical evidence of the meaning of the terms for, first, their ratifiers, and second, their framers. Equity and prudential decisions shall not be regarded as precedents. To the extent that any provisions of this Constitution are inconsistent with the provisions of any other laws of Oregon, the provisions of this Constitution shall prevail and shall be deemed to supersede the provisions of such laws. The powers delegated by the Constitution to the government of Oregon, shall be exercised as therein appropriated, so that the Legislative shall never exercise the powers vested in the Executive or Judicial; nor the Executive the powers vested in the Legislative or Judicial; nor the Judicial the powers vested in the Legislative or Executive. It is at all times unlawful for the Oregon State government to at any time "operate outside of the constitution".

[] In conformity to the natural right to Privacy, there shall be no legal requirement to surveil the premises where cannabis, hashish, cannabinoids, or their products are grown, synthesized, or otherwise created, extracted, processed, stored, shipped, sold, or consumed. Claims against theft of Cannabis, Hashish, Cannabinoids, or their products do not legally require this evidence so long as the identity of the thieves can be proved beyond a reasonable doubt by other means.

The organization stresses that Appellation d'origine contrôlée products will be produced in a consistent and traditional manner with ingredients from specifically classified producers in designated geographical areas. The products must further be aged at least partially in the respective designated area. Under French law, it is illegal to manufacture and sell a product under one of the Appellation d'origine contrôlée-controlled geographical indications if it does not comply with the criteria of the Appellation d'origine contrôlée. Appellation d'origine contrôlée products can be identified by a seal, which is printed on the label in wines, and with cheeses, on the rind. To prevent any possible misrepresentation, no part of an Appellation d'origine contrôlée name may be used on a label of a product not qualifying for that Appellation d'origine contrôlée. This strict label policy can lead to confusion, especially in cases where towns share names with appellations. If the town of origin of a product contains a controlled appellation in its name, the producer (who is legally required to identify the place of origin on the product label but legally prohibited from using the full town's name unless the product is an approved Appellation d'origine contrôlée product) is enjoined from listing anything more than a cryptic postal code. For example, there are a dozen townships in l'Aude that have Cabardès in their names, several of which are not even within the geographical boundaries of the Cabardès Appellation d'origine contrôlée. Maybe to solve this, use a bio-regional attribute to labeling. Any vineyard that produces wine in one of those towns must not mention the name of the town of origin on the product labels. -- make the law friendly to connoisseurs, but also navigable by your typical "just want to get high" stoner who don't want to learn a whole new thing just to be able to enjoy their smoke!; -- xxx --- microbial test is looking for human pathogens, along with broad indicator tests such as total yeast and mold (TYAM) AND total aerobic bacteria (TAB) pesticide residue testing for heavy metals, including arsenic and lead, and, benzine for wildfire damage (for cases when the fires pass through municipal areas) heavy metals panel analysis that includes lead, cadmium, arsenic, nickel and mercury contamination from smoke, ash, fire retardant dust --- [!+]allow use of marijuana outdoors in parks[!+] people are free to tour facilities upon consent of the owner or other authorized party to "grant consent on behalf of the owner" --- define shake? what would it be? at least 35% leaf, but no more than 65% leaf (compared to bud) by weight?

So long as a person commits no fundamental evil against another, they are rendered free to do with themself, their property, and all other rights, and to dispose of all these as they shall see fit, given the direct stipulation that they not interfere with the equal rights in another to do the same with their own self. Given this essential Freedom in Liberty, the ability to protect these rights with impunity must be afforded defense by law, and additionally be secured by members of Government where they are so able to benefit and safeguard the People, when they are able to do so. The natural power in a person to do as they please with themself within the limit to allow others to do the same with theirself, shall also freely permit without license or need of let by another to afford their own self-security and self-defense, resistance against injustice, rebellion against tyranny, revolution against arbitrary and/or illegitimate Government, and the Liberty to perform all needful actions and implement all necessary tools and devices to affect a sufficient response to any usurpation as it may so arrise from time to time. Given that these foundational precepts are fundamental to our sovereignty as Individuals, we the People of Oregon, as Citizens of the United States, residents of the World, occupants of the Universe, and members of reality, now do establish, ordain, and enact the following provisions to be incorporated into the constitution of Oregon, and Command our Government to abide by its authority and directives in favour of the rights of Persons. + +(2) We find and declare that all People are endowed with Universal, Fundamental, Inherent, Inalienable, Natural Rights, among those are the rights to Life and Health, Liberty/Freedom and Autonomy, Self-security [and the freedom to lawfully and justly secure others whom mutually consent] and Self-Defense [and the freedom to lawfully and justly defend others whom mutually consent], Privacy, Property, and the Pursuit of Happiness, and that when they form a social compact, are to be equally respected in these rights, with no one Individual or group of Individuals superior in right or power to any other Individual; that all power stems from the rights inherent in the People, and that all free [civil] governments are founded upon their (the People's) authority, and instituted for their Liberty, Peace, Safety, and Happiness; and they have at all times a right to alter, reform, or abolish the government in such manner as they may think proper. + +(3) As all power is originally inherent in and consequentially derived from the People, therefore, all members of government, whether Judicial, Legislative, or Executive are their trustees and servants; and at all times, in a legal way are accountable to them; All members of Government [including but not limited to public officials and officers] are servants of the whole community, and not of any one group thereof, except of course for such community at large/whole; + +(4) Rebellion against tyranny. being an essential Pillar to uphold Freedom/Liberty, in order to Promote the Natural as well as Constitutional rights, and Secure Justice, a Citizen's Natural Duty to rebel shall be secured by law, which itself refers to the essential duty of any Person, but Particularly the Citizenry, to rebel against unjust laws, orders, and actions that are contrary to, de-valuate, or which do violate any of the natural rights or natural justice, such as, but not limited to Life and Health, Liberty/Freedom and Autonomy, Self-security and Self-defense [and the freedom to secure or defend others], Privacy, Property/Estate, and the Pursuit of Happiness, which are fundamental in themselves and inalienable. This duty entails that People dismiss, oppose, forcibly resist, and correct any violations of natural and constitutional rights, as well as such justice, against any unjust law, order, or action of any level of government, or any contractor/s beneath them, in any jurisdiction, including from imminent threats against Individuals, such as Standing Armies or Police Forces erected to enforce violations of volition. + +(5) All People recognize the right [and duty] of revolution; that is, the right [and duty] to refuse allegiance to, and to resist the government, when its tyranny and inefficiency, oppression, and/or usurpation are great and un-endurable. Resistance to injustice is the consequence of the other rights of Individuals. The doctrine of non-resistance against arbitrary Power and Injustice is absurd, slavish, repugnant to a free People, and destructive of the good and happiness of humankind. Whenever the government endeavor to take away and destroy the lives and/or property of the People, or reduce them to slavery under arbitrary power and/or absolute dominion, they put themselves into a state of war with the People, who are thereupon absolved from any further obedience, and are left to the common refuge, which is provided for all People universally, against force and violence. Whensoever therefore the Government shall transgress this fundamental rule of society; and either by Ambition, Fear, Folly, or Corruption, endeavor to grasp themselves, or put into the hands of any other an absolute power over the lives, liberties, properties/estates, and/or any other right of the People; by this breach of trust they forfeit the power the People had put into their hands for quite contrary ends, and it devolves to the People, who have a right to resume their original Liberty. Those who incite, dispatch, Sign, or Execute Arbitrary or Unjust Acts or Orders, or cause them to be executed, must be punished seriously. The decision to support, aid, assist, or oppose any foreign government or revolutionary movement will be reserved to the People, as Individuals. + +--- + +Section 9 Article 1 + +AMENDS Oregon CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 1 SECTION 9 WITH MORE STRINGENT REQUIREMENTS FOR DETENTIONS, WARRANTS, AND ARRESTS + +No law shall violate the right of Persons to be secure in their Persons, Personal and Private information/records which include but are not limited to medical and psychological information/records, papers, homes, effects, location as well as network information, electronic and radio data (including but not limited to: Meta-data) as well as private communications, from [any and all] un-reasonable and un-warranted searches, seizures and storage; Nor shall any person be stopped or detained unreasonably, neither but upon probable cause, for the sole purpose of temporarily retaining them while a warrant may be secured to proceed in search or seizure; and no warrant to search any place, seize any person or thing, or access electronic/radio data or communications, shall issue without particularly describing the place to be searched, the person or thing to be seized, tracked, or put under surveillance, or the data or communication to be accessed or stored, as nearly as may be; nor without a modicum of credible evidence for which it is apparent that the accused has likely committed an offense against the rights of another person (which evidence may include or be the statement of a witness sworn under oath by pain and penalty of law for its falsification by any measure or degree), which shall be presented to a judge of competent jurisdiction to provide authorization.

It is mandatory that all jurors be informed of this right. Before the jury hears a case, and again before jury deliberation begins, the court shall inform jurors of their rights in these words: "As jurors, your first responsibility is to decide whether the prosecution has proven beyond a reasonable doubt every element of the civil/criminal liability/charge. If you decide that the prosecution has proven beyond a reasonable doubt every element of the civil/criminal liability/charge but you cannot in good conscience support a liable/guilty verdict, you are not required to do so. To reach a verdict which you believe is just, each of you has the right to consider to what extent the []defendant's[] actions have actually caused harm or otherwise violated your sense of right and wrong. If you believe justice requires it, you may also judge both the merits of the law under which the []defendant[] has been [held] liable/charged and the wisdom of applying that law to the defendant. Accordingly, for each charge against the []defendant[], even if review of the evidence strictly in terms of the law would indicate a liable/guilty verdict, you have the right to find the defendant not liable/guilty. The court cautions that with the exercise of this right comes the full moral responsibility for the verdict you bring in." As part of their oath, the jurors shall affirm that they understand the information concerning their rights which this section requires the court to give them, and that no party to the trial may be prevented from encouraging jurors to exercise this right. For the jurors to be so informed is declared to be part of the defendant's fundamental right to a fair trial by jury, and failure to conduct any criminal trial in accordance with this section shall not constitute harmless error, and shall be grounds for a mistrial. No potential juror may be disqualified from serving on a jury because they express willingness to judge the law or its application, or to vote according to their conscience. + +(4) Juries retain the right to vote their conscience, and the power to strike down as void and unlawful any laws in conflict with the constitution, with the duty to elaborate upon the decision for the benefit of the People, and the responsibility to do so mindfully and only upon serious consideration through their deliberations. + +--- + +AMENDS Article 1 Section 11 of the Oregon CONSTITUTION by numbering and altering the previous provision, and adding a new [numbered] provision beneath which both: REQUIRE UNANIMOUS JURY DECISIONS and REQUIRE A FULLY INFORMED JURY + +(1) In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall have the right to public trial by an impartial jury in the county in which the offense shall have been committed; to be heard by himself and counsel; to demand the nature and cause of the accusation against him, and to have a copy thereof; to meet the witnesses face to face, and to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor; provided, however, that any accused person, in other than capital cases, and with the consent of the trial judge, may elect to waive trial by jury and consent to be tried by the judge of the court alone, such election to be in writing; provided however, that they shall only be found guilty by unanimous verdict, and not otherwise; provided further, that the existing laws and constitutional provisions relative to criminal prosecutions shall be continued and remain in effect as to all prosecutions for crimes committed before the taking effect of this amendment. + +(2) Criminal defendants have the right to be served justice by a fully informed jury, who know all of their Rights, Powers, Duties, and Responsibilities, as well as who are learned and understand all basic legal rules and procedures as well as definitions, and whom know all relevant laws and case rulings, as they are applicable to the case at hand. +--- + +Section 27 article 1 + +AMENDS Oregon CONSTITUTION ARTICLE 1 SECTION 27 BY CHANGING AND ENHANCING TEXT AS WELL AS ADDING NUMBERED SUB-SECTIONS FOR FURTHERING THE RIGHT TO OWN AND/OR POSSESS/KEEP, CARRY, MANUFACTURE AND/OR MODIFY, TRANSFER AND/OR GIVE/RECEIVE, BUY AND/OR SELL, AND USE AND/OR BEAR ARMS + +(1) All Persons are by nature free and independent, and have certain inherent and Inalienable rights, among these are Life and Health, Liberty/freedom and autonomy, Privacy, Property/Estate, and the Pursuit of Happiness, and the right to own and/or possess/keep, carry, manufacture and/or modify, transfer and/or give/receive, buy and/or sell, and use and/or bear arms (meaning armaments, ammunitions, armors, and others), for security and defense of self, family, home, property, business, hunting, recreational use, and all other just purposes, and such rights shall not be restricted, denied, suspended, abridged, obstructed, impacted, or in any other way infringed by the government or any sub-division or affiliation thereof. + +(2) The right of any Person to own and/or Possess/Keep, Transfer and/or give/receive, carry, manufacture and/or modify, sell and/or buy, and use and/or bear arms in defense of their own home, business, Person, and Property, or to the defense of another's or other's home, business, Person, or Property, or in consensual Aid of the Civil Power when thereto legally summoned, shall not be called into question. + +(3) In addition to the already existing right to self-security and self-defense [and the Freedom to secure and defend others upon voluntary consent] of Property and Person, and any natural or Constitutional right, and to unlimitedly access [in all just ways (meaning without violating the rights of another),] all such needful equipment and other resources to secure these, all free People shall at all times have the right to own and/or possess/keep, transfer and/or give/receive, buy and/or sell, and use and/or bear non-lethal defensive tools in their just course of daily life. + +(4) A well regulated Militia, composed of the body of the people, being necessary for the best security of a free State and a sovereign society composed of independent individuals, the [fundamental] right of the People [as Individuals] to keep and bear Arms for lawful public purposes, and justible private purposes, is elevated above all other interests, and shall not be restricted, denied, suspended, abridged, obstructed, impacted, or otherwise infringed[], but no one, whether conscientiously, morally, or [a]spiritually/[a]religiously, or otherwise objecting to their bearing arms, shall be compelled to render military service in person[];

As such, the people naturally do have the right to bear arms for the defense of themselves, and upon their own consent, in assistance to the State, but the Military shall be kept in strict subordination to the civil power. + +(5) The right of the People to repel invasion of, or attack on, their property, shall freely enable the owners or right holders of real estate to free and openly erect and set [incapacitating, wounding, or death] trip/trigger wires, buttons, or any other trip/trigger sensor, snares, or entanglements, traps, and sentries on their lands and Structure's Premesis, as well as to enhance their vehicle/s or craft/s with such affixments or modifications, so long as they are justible deterrents or weapons, as well as that all reasonable steps are taken to prevent the accidental injury or slaughter of a/n authorized Individual/s or of a/n innocent bystander/s.

Each Individual has the Inalienable [Natural] right of Self-Defense against the Initiation of [unjust] force, or any other form of aggression. No Individual or association of Individuals, however constituted, has the right to initiate force against any other individual; No one may rightfully threaten, or commit, the initiation of aggression/offensive_violence/[un-just]_force against another Person or their Property; Written, verbal, and physical threats of imminent Physical Violence are sufficient justification for a defensive response in a physical manner; violence may be [justly] employed only against the Individual/s who threaten/s to or do/es commit such violence, that is, only defensively against the aggressive violence of another or others; No violence may be [justly] employed against [a] non-aggressor/s. + +(3) Everyone possesses an inherent right to defend their natural rights, including [upon their discretion] with lethal force, as may be prescribed by this constitution and the laws made in accordance therewith.

There is no duty to retreat before engaging in defense of one's or another's rights, and nobody shall be charged with a criminal offense for standing their ground in the face of an attack against them, their property, or interference with the exercise of any right, freedom, or guarantee.

A defender cannot, as a matter principle, be criminally charged or held civilly liable for any act or response to an aggressor or initiator of[un-just]_force/attacker/violator, nor for wounding the aggressor. The People, as a popular sovereign, at all times, are ensured this right, without need of restraint, as a means of their Independence. + +(5) The Castle Doctrine and defense of a person's lands, is a legal doctrine of ancient origins that designates a Person's abode, or any legally occupied place such as a vehicle/craft or home, and the property they own or lawfully control, regardless of whether it is where the abode is parked or placed, is a place in which that Person has protections and immunities permitting one, in certain circumstances as laid forth by law, to use force [including deadly force] to defend oneself or one's property against an intruder, free from legal prosecution for the consequences of the force used; Persons residing in or visiting this Commonwealth have a right to expect to remain unmolested on or within their land, homes, or vehicles/crafts.

So too shall be secured everyone's right to repel unlawful entry by any public servant, including up to using lethal force to defend land or premises from illegal invasion. + +(10) Upon enactment of this section, those who are, or were previously charged or sentenced under statutes or rulings in conflict with and contrary to this section shall be immediately released from imprisonment, automatically granted immediate pardon and expungement for the false crimes for which they were convicted of, + receive full pardon and repreive from the gubernor, be resituted for the entire duration of time in which they were imprisoned, detained, or incarcerated, and all Statutes and Instructions to the Jury, and any judicial ruling contrary to it shall immediately become invalid on their face, and be null and void, with no more effect. + +(11) For the purposes of this constitution, "Aggression" is in the context to the [mutual] non-aggression principle, and shall be defined as threatening or initiating any forcible interference with an Individual, or Individual's property, or the exercise of any of their rights, freedoms, or guarantees therewith.

No power is plenary or without limits, and no power may be extended to accomplish a purpose without amendment.

The organization stresses that Appellation d'origine contrôlée products will be produced in a consistent and traditional manner with ingredients from specifically classified producers in designated geographical areas. The products must further be aged at least partially in the respective designated area. + +Under French law, it is illegal to manufacture and sell a product under one of the Appellation d'origine contrôlée-controlled geographical indications if it does not comply with the criteria of the Appellation d'origine contrôlée. Appellation d'origine contrôlée products can be identified by a seal, which is printed on the label in wines, and with cheeses, on the rind. To prevent any possible misrepresentation, no part of an Appellation d'origine contrôlée name may be used on a label of a product not qualifying for that Appellation d'origine contrôlée. + +This strict label policy can lead to confusion, especially in cases where towns share names with appellations. If the town of origin of a product contains a controlled appellation in its name, the producer (who is legally required to identify the place of origin on the product label but legally prohibited from using the full town's name unless the product is an approved Appellation d'origine contrôlée product) is enjoined from listing anything more than a cryptic postal code. For example, there are a dozen townships in l'Aude that have Cabardès in their names, several of which are not even within the geographical boundaries of the Cabardès Appellation d'origine contrôlée. Maybe to solve this, use a bio-regional attribute to labeling. Any vineyard that produces wine in one of those towns must not mention the name of the town of origin on the product labels. + +-- + +make the law friendly to connoisseurs, but also navigable by your typical "just want to get high" stoner who don't want to learn a whole new thing just to be able to enjoy their smoke!; + +-- + +xxx + +--- + +microbial test is looking for human pathogens, along with broad indicator tests such as total yeast and mold (TYAM) AND total aerobic bacteria (TAB) +pesticide residue +testing for heavy metals, including arsenic and lead, and, benzine for wildfire damage (for cases when the fires pass through municipal areas) +heavy metals panel analysis that includes lead, cadmium, arsenic, nickel and mercury +contamination from smoke, ash, fire retardant +dust + +--- + +[!+]allow use of marijuana outdoors in parks[!+] + +people are free to tour facilities upon consent of the owner or other authorized party to "grant consent on behalf of the owner" + +--- + +define shake? what would it be? at least 35% leaf, but no more than 65% leaf (compared to bud) by weight? + +(eyeballed estimates; needs proper correcting with observations from a greater set of information) + +budshake: +no less than 55% calyx green mass +no more than 35% leaf green mass (including "sugar leaf") +no more than 10% stem + +shake proper: +no less than 35% calyx green mass +no more than 50% leaf green mass (including "sugar leaf") +no more than 15% stem + +trim is defined as: +no minimum requirement for calyx green mass +more than 50% leaf mass (including sugar leaf) +no maximum limit for stem + + + +-- + +Landrace shall be defined as a human selected heirloom cultivar which has grown as an apalacian in its indigenous environment for at least 2000 years. + +--- + +define how much pot gets tested out of what size batch, regulate the standards for uniformity purposes, allow more to be tested than the minimum 6.66666% per whole unit; + +1:[10-or-]15[-or-20] ratio for tested to batch size (standard batch size is one kilogram, therefore, standard test size is 66.666gram [or more] per 1000 grams {kilo-gram}) + +[?]standard ounce under initiative is 28.4 grams[?] with an exception for over-weight up to[?]0.155gram[?] [over] per unit + +--- + +no limits on quantity that may be purchased or carried + +--- + +randomized product checks for quality testing, including for mold and bacteria, PLUS, directed testing upon reports of faulty goods, including from anonymous tips, up to once every two weeks for up to 65% of all products they carry at a time, in a given instance; + +--- + +Producers and Manufacturers of Cannabis and Cannabis products shall retain liability for defective goods when they are used in a mnner as directed or as they would normally be used.
