Gun Confiscation Ramps Up As United Nations Recruits Disarmament Troops For U.S. Civilians

Need A Job?  UN Careers Post Job Listing . . .

New York UN Office Recruits Paramilitary Troops for ‘Disarmament’ and ‘Reintegration’ of US Civilians

 

 

The United Nations is now accepting job applications in New York City, New York for Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration officers to “contribute to security and stability in post-conflict environments.”

The job listing was posted to the U.N. careers homepage on Dec. 26, and notes that “female candidates are strongly encouraged to apply for this position” because “the United Nations Secretariat is committed to achieving 50/50 gender balance in its staff.”

UN DDR forces operate under the intergovernmental organization’s Department of Peace Operations to “assist” the Member States, including the United States, in a boots on the ground capacity.

The job listing describes the UN’s core values as “.”

Applicants eager to conduct DDR “field missions” are required to have “seven years of relevant experience in disarmament affairs, political analysis or in national military or paramilitary service” and an “advanced university degree (Master’s degree or equivalent degree) in disarmament affairs, military studies, political affairs, economics, international relations, or a related field.”

The UN describes the Disarmament, Demobilization, and Reintegration protocol as “a complex process, with political, military, security, humanitarian and socio-economic dimensions.”

Key components of DDR as defined by the UN include disarming the civilian population and “the development of responsible arms management programmes” and the implementation of mass detainment camps:

"Disarmament is the collection, documentation, control and disposal of small arms, ammunition, explosives and light and heavy weapons of combatants and often also of the civilian population. Disarmament also includes the development of responsible arms management programmes.

Demobilization is the formal and controlled discharge of active combatants from armed forces or other armed groups. The first stage of demobilization may extend from the processing of individual combatants in temporary centres to the massing of troops in camps designated for this purpose (cantonment sites, encampments, assembly areas or barracks). The second stage of demobilization encompasses the support package provided to the demobilized, which is called reinsertion.

Reinsertion* is the assistance offered to ex-combatants during demobilization but prior to the longer-term process of reintegration. Reinsertion is a form of transitional assistance to help cover the basic needs of ex-combatants and their families and can include transitional safety allowances, food, clothes, shelter, medical services, short-term education, training, employment and tools. While reintegration is a long-term, continuous social and economic process of development, reinsertion is short-term material and/or financial assistance to meet immediate needs, and can last up to one year.

Reintegration is the process by which ex-combatants acquire civilian status and gain sustainable employment and income. Reintegration is essentially a social and economic process with an open time-frame, primarily taking place in communities at the local level. It is part of the general development of a country and a national responsibility, and often necessitates long-term external assistance."

The UN website notes that “it is important to break outside of the traditional view of DDR participants as only being adult males carrying weapons, and remember that DDR participants and beneficiaries may fit all types of profiles including female ex-combatants and women associated with armed forces and groups, children, youth, the elderly and persons living with disabilities.”

UN hopefuls hoping to work in New York and “contribute to security and stability in post-conflict environments” can submit their applications to become DDR officers December 26, 2019 through February 8, 2020.

Entrapment By The FBI - The Arrest Of Schuyler Barbeau

What I refer to as "The Roundup" of Patriots in the American West, started with Schuyler Barbeau.  This is part of his story.  From the writings of Gary Hunt, the article "Barbeau-Qued In Seattle.  The details are as follows...

Schuyler Barbeau On Stage With Cliven Bundy Bundy Ranch Stand Off April 2014

In the late morning of December 6, 2015, Schuyler Barbeau had been helping Allen Aenk by rescuing service dogs as a business service run from the Aenk family Ranch, in Stevens County, Washington some 280 miles away from where the following events begin to unfold.

At the Weigh Station

After dealing with the dogs, Schuyler wanted to stop to collect some money owed him by Oliver Murphy. Murphy texted Schuyler to meet him at a weigh station at Interstate 90 on Washington Highway 18 (between Preston and Snoqualmie). When they arrived at the weigh station, Oliver’s car was there, but Oliver was nowhere to be seen. So, they parked next to Oliver’s car and Allen got out of the car, cell phone in hand to call his wife and to take the dog to the Dog Walk.

Before he could complete his intended tasks, he saw between 10 and 12 battle dressed people encircle him and the car. He was told to lie down on the ground. He complied, though he questioned why he and Allen were being treated this way. They then handcuffed Allen, and since Schuyler was on the other side of the car, he didn’t really see what happened to him. Allen did note that he saw FBI, US Marshalls, and Coast Guard, though there were no apparent BATF agents on the scene. But, we’ll get to the charges shortly.

The agents were going through his car, but they had no warrant with them, they simply stated that they did have one (There was a warrant to search the car at the premises – the ranch, but nothing identifying the car specifically).

They then moved Allen away from the car and began asking questions about Schuyler, but Allen told them to ask Schuyler, not him.

After they had searched the car, one of the agents, acting rather rudely and assertively, asked Allen to sign a “Receipt for Property Seized”, which Allen refused to sign, and Special Agent Kera O’Reilly affirmed that Allen refused. However, he was provided a copy, it shows the following items seized from the car:

— Green “Bad Inc” Vest with visible firearms magazine with unknown contents inside pockets, bags, etc

— Grey “Universal” bag with yellow straps, with green sunglasses on strap and unknown contents

— FNH VSA pistol (FNX-45 Tactical Serial # FX3U025994) w/ [intelligible]

Inforce tactical light

1 round loose, 15 in magazine full metal jacket 45 cal

— Cellular telephone, Android platform,

Droid Turbo, w/ other box (grey w/ yellow outline)

Allen was not allowed to verify some of those seized item, in particular, the “Grey Universal bag with yellow straps”, so the feds can do anything they want with the contents. It was Special Agent O’Reilly  who, rather rudely, refused Allen’s request to review the contents.

Just so we know who the rather rude agent that dealt with Allen is, she was Kera Wulbert, and may have been Kera Wulbert Wagner, prior to that. Around 2013, she married Brendan Gerard O’Reilly (age 46) and quitclaimed her house at 2914 S Hill Street, Seattle, to herself and her new husband.

The other Special Agent was Matthew Acker, who acted courteously, as we should be able to expect our public servants to act toward us. These two agents were, apparently, assigned to Allen, while we can suppose that the rest of the jackboots were needed to assure that Schuyler didn't take over the surrounding forces, though we will have to get that information from him, when he is removed from sequestration and allowed visitors and phone calls.

The Criminal Complaint

Though we have no proof of the existence of an Arrest Warrant being issued prior to the arrest, we do have the Criminal Complaint that resulted in the arrest, as well as the Search Warrant.

The only Count in the Complaint says that Schuyler “knowingly possessed a firearm which was not registered to him in the National Firearms Registration and Transfer Record, as required by law, namely, a particular black, semiautomatic AR-15 5.56 mm caliber assault rifle with a 10.5 inch barrel and holographic sight, a rifle having a barrel of less than 16 inches in length”, for which the government wants a $200 tax (refer to Title 26, US Code, §§5861(d) and 5845(a)(3) as the violations). Title 26 is the tax code, so they are assuming that Schuyler owes a tax, and that he failed to pay it. Can you imagine how much it cost the government to persecute Schuyler, as opposed to, say sending him a bill?

It appears that what he had was a Rainier Arms UltraMatch .223 Wylde Complete Upper – 10.5. This is advertised by Rainier Arms, and the add states that, “ALL NFA Rules Apply”.

So, we know and understand that a Class III license holder has, by obtaining the license, agreed to do certain things. Among them would be to verify that if he sold such an item, alleged to be illegal in the Complaint, he would have to run a background check, provide the necessary paperwork to the purchaser, submit the paperwork, and fulfill all of the duties that the regulations require of him. But, that is because he contracted, by obtaining the license, with the government to perform those tasks required by those regulations. This would include 18 USC (criminal) and 26 US Code (tax), and perhaps others. But, it is only the licensee (which only applies to land, the IRS is making a stretch here), that has agreed to abide by those regulations.

However, the Second Amendment has confirmed our right to bear arms, without infringement. This leaves the government, with only limited jurisdiction, via the Commerce Clause (interstate commerce) and the taxing authority, as the means of the government to try to circumvent the limits imposed upon the government by the Constitution. However, if someone hasn’t contracted with the government, they, as well as the government, should be bound only by the Constitution. Schuyler’s right to possess that firearm is sacred; there is no justification for the government to attempt to, by force of arms, pay a tax on that right — regardless of what the government thinks. And, it is his right to do so that we, the People, need to “support and defend”.

Back to the Complaint. Special Agent Michael Baldino executed the Complaint. He is a member of the Seattle Division’s Domestic Terrorism Squad of the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF). Those are the guys that let Muslims kill people in California, while they mess with Americans that are intent on defending America against those Muslim terrorists, and BLM wannabes.

In paragraph 5 (page 3/6) we see that a Confidential Human Source (CHS) provided information (snitched) to the FBI about Schuyler. The Complaint is a substitute for the constitutionally required affidavit, and a poor substitute, at that. An affidavit is sworn as to personal knowledge, and is not supposed to give any validity to hearsay. However, since Baldino didn’t “swear” to the document, well, he can say anything that he wants.

Back to the CHS. It has been confirmed that the CHS in the Complaint is none other than Oliver Murphy. Yes, that is the one that baited Schuyler and Allen to the Weigh Station, but it doesn’t end there. Before we proceed, perhaps we ought to look at Mr. Murphy. His father, Patrick Murphy, was Snohomish County Sheriff. He was appointed to that position in 1995, when then Sheriff Jim Scharf stepped down to become the Everett Police Chief. Patrick Murphy, however, didn’t stay long. He was charged with four counts of felony possession of prescription medication. Patrick died in 2006, so maybe Oliver wanted to follow in his father’s footsteps and become recognized in “law enforcement”. At any rate, Oliver was in from the beginning to the end of Schuyler’s ordeal.

 

Hear Schuyler Barbeau Tell Of His Entrapment In This Video

 

Paragraph 7 (Complaint) tells us that CHS was invited to the trailer that Schuyler was staying in at the Aenk’s ranch, on October 19, 2015. The Aenk’s have confirmed that it was Oliver Murphy that stayed with Schuyler, on that date. There is only one CHS (if there are more than one, they would be numbered in the Complaint), so it is Murphy in every instance in the Complaint.

Next, we have Baldino going to Facebook to see what “dirt” he could get on Schuyler. He found photographs where Schuyler acknowledged that he owned a “short-barreled rifle” (SBR), which would be the Rainier Arms UltraMatch. So, when Schuyler suggested that he wanted to sell it. Murphy, being such a nice guy, let Schuyler know that he had found a buyer for the SBR.

On November 22, Schuyler dropped the SBR off at Murphy’s “residence”. So now, Murphy possess the SBR, but he has not been charged, and, according to the available information, he is not law enforcement, nor is he exempt from any regulation that might be imposed, legally, or not, on Schuyler. But, Murphy was never charged with a crime, but, that is the nature of a police state, isn’t it?

Schuyler has given up the SBR, Murphy gives it to the FBI, but nobody has paid Schuyler for the purchase the SBR. That sounds awfully like what is commonly referred to as theft, fraud, swindle, or some other real crime that has an injured party, namely Schuyler. But, in this modern world where it is always somebody else’s fault, the only one that didn’t hurt anybody by stealing property was Schuyler.  So, he was charged.

It was probably to collect the money that Murphy was supposed to have collected do to the sale of the SBR, for that was the enticement for Schuyler and Allen to go to the Weigh Station.

Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch

About the same time that those events were occurring at the Weigh Station across the state in Springdale, Carrie Aenk (Allen's Wife) was facing her own ordeal. The following is based upon an interview and documents that have been provided.

Thirty to 35 people showed up in 7 or 8 vehicles. Carrie, when she saw them driving in, tried to call Allen. There was no answer. however, the Agents used a battering ram on the back door of the house. They also released some of the dogs from their kennel.  These thugs go the extra mile in creating complete chaos!

The search warrant is marked with an “X" in the daytime 6:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m.” (Page 1 of pdf). It says nothing about “no knock”, so it must be served in a civil manner. A battering ram at the back door of the house hardly satisfies that expectation, but, then, when you give thugs a license, they can do as they please — the Constitution notwithstanding.

I think we need to note here that the Search Warrant among other things, states that “I find that the affidavit(s), or any recorded testimony, establish probable cause to search and seize the person or property.” However, no affidavit, or recorded testimony, has been provided. And, if we were to assume that the Criminal Complaint somehow satisfies that requirement, then even more curious is the fact that the Search Warrant brings in charges that were not included in the Complaint, or anywhere else in any of the currently existing court documents.

As far as the Warrant, it gives permission to search for the person or property described in “Attachment A”. “Attachment A” says, “This warrant authorizes the search of Schuyler Pyatte Barbeau for any cellular phones. This warrant authorizes the search of any such phones for the items described in “Attachment B”. Then, it remarks that Schuyler resides in a trailer on the property. So, the Warrant only allows them to search Schuyler for any phones, and then to search any phones for items in “Attachment B”. So, to make this clear, Schuyler can be searched for phones. Presumably, if phones are found, those phones can be searched for the items identified in “Attachment B”. There doesn’t appear to be any authority to search beyond that limitation. So, let’s look at "Attachment B" to see just what might be found in the phones.

“Attachment B” begins with, “Items to Be Seized from the Phone Described in "Attachment A.” Before we continue with "Attachment B", let’s reflect on what they just said. The items to be seized are to be seized from the phone. I know that the concept of seizing items from a phone is difficult to digest, unless, of course, you are a government agent. I still have a problem understanding how items can be seized from them. But, let’s continue and see just what those federal agents can “seize” from a phone.

Continuing in Attachment B, “All documents and items reflecting evidence and/or fruits of the commission of the crimes of (a) unlawful possession of a firearm, in violation of Title 26, United States Code, Sections 5861(d) and 5845(a)(3); (b) possession of stolen federal property, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 641; and (c) possession of a machine gun, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 922(o), including:”, then it goes on to list, not items, rather, telephone serial numbers; sent, received, and missed calls; stored contact information; and, any stored photographs or Facebook posts –that might show something illegal.  This will establish Oliver Murphy as the "lynch-pin".

This brings to mind an important part of the Constitution, you know, where they itemized some of the inherent rights of the People, not "granted" by government, rather, prohibitions against the government violating them. Specifically, the Fourth Amendment:

"The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized".

So, if information stored on a cell phone (since it can’t be the items that were to be seized) is simply a modern substitute for “papers and effects”, then it requires that the probable cause must be supported by “Oath or affirmation”. Unfortunately, the government failed to provide such.

The Complaint was for a tax violation, only, and being singularly concerned with that SBR. If we assume that the “affirmation” (that is really stretching our language to an extreme), to the extent of that affirmation must be limited to the SBR and Title 26 (taxes). So, where the hell does “possession of stolen federal property” and “possession of a machine gun” come into the picture? Do they just make this crap up while sitting around the water cooler? Also, consider Judge Thomas O. Rice; does he even read what he signs? And, all of these idiots, even the judge, probably make over $100,000 a year — on our dime. It seems more like the Mafia than a government.

Just to throw a little confusion into the mix, both of these attachments mentioned above bear the case number directly below the title. There are two more attachment “A”s, but neither of them have a case number, so they are either sloppy, or they inserted these from some other source, or they could care less about the identification of legal documents. Take your pick, but when you are dealing with incompetence, it can only be a wild guess.

Given the limits of what could be searched for, let’s look at what they found “on the phone”:

1) Plastic bag with .223 ammo

2) Seven (7) 223 magazine

3) Verizon bill, ID cards, record book

4) Motorola mobile phone, model XT 912

5) Nylon bag with camping tool, tape (?)

6) Plastic box with gun parts

7) Large plastic bag with gun parts

It is hard to believe that any of those items, except No. 4, could satisfy the conditions of the warrant!

However, the act of the service of this Warrant, after the battering ram entry, gets even more interesting. After they entered the house, they flash-banged every room they entered. Carrie counted at least eight of them in the house. That’s right, they threw flash-bang grenades into each room, in order to clear it, perhaps, from evil spirits, since it would be difficult to otherwise understand the necessity of causing intentional damage, including gaping holes in walls, windows blown out, not to mention the back door that was battered open, and one helluva mess to prove that the government has come to “help you”. If there is an assumption being made here that the government will perform restitution for the damage they caused, especially if the charges are dropped against Schuyler, then you are sadly mistaken.

While this “search” (and destroy mission) was going on, Carrie was held handcuffed for about an hour and a half, and she was not allowed to contact her attorney! They also held a gun on Carrie throughout this entire ordeal! Perhaps there is reason for concern when there is just one pissed off woman, and only 30 to 35 armed men to keep her under control.

While searching the rest of the premises, they used at least ten more flash bangs, some of them apparently only to scare the dogs, which resulted in laughter by some of the agents, who apparently were enjoying themselves immensely while terrorizing Carrie. I will conclude by stating that this is, by far, the most egregious abuse of presumed governmental authority that I have seen since my visit to Waco, back in 1993.

Perhaps it is time to reflect on whether we are truly a self-governed nation, or have become subject to a government far more despotic that that one cast off by the Founders, over 239 years ago. And, to reflect upon our obligation, as that “Posterity” identified in the Preamble to the Constitution, to assure that this once great nation returns to its intended object, for our own Posterity.

 

Update-

September 9, 2017

Schuyler Barbeau-

There are two Federal charges, including possession of an unregistered firearm and possession of a machine gun.
Schuyler Barbeau Sentenced to 27 Months in Prison

Schuyler Barbeau plead guilty to two Federal charges, including possession of an unregistered firearm and possession of a machine gun, on June 6th. Each count could carry up to a maximum of 10 years in Prison plus hefty fines. Judge Robert Jones waived the fines and ordered minimum fees of $100.00 per count.

Today, Barbeau was given 27 months for the two counts, plus three years of probation. He has also lost his rights to possess firearms.

Barbeau has been incarcerated since December 2015. If he were to serve the entire sentence he would not be released prior to March 2018, another 6 months. However, he is eligible for early release, totaling 108 days. This means that he is expected to return home before Christmas.

What was most interesting about this hearing was that, though the charges were strictly firearm related, the sentencing recommendations revolved around the First Amendment.

The prosecution repeatedly cited Barbeau’s social media postings in their recommendations of 72 months incarceration. They also took issue with Barbeau’s “anti-government” associates, and even referenced the Bundy’s, the Bunkerville Standoff, and the Malheur Refuge Protest.

Noting the hefty allegations from the prosecution, Judge Jones was even moved to ask the prosecution if their recommendations for incarceration were based on the actions of others? The prosecution quickly backed away from that theory, yet did not withdraw their comments.

The prosecution spent a bit of time discussing Barbeau’s fascination with the Founding Fathers and the American Revolution. They seemed to think that this was a detriment to Barbeau’s character, and offered it as evidence against him.

Based on the statements from the prosecution, the court found that a threat of force and intimidation did exist from Barbeau and weighted this evidence heavily in the sentence.

However, in spite of the prosecution’s rhetoric, Judge Jones found that Barbeau was misguided in his understanding of the Second Amendment. He seemed to have some sympathy for Schuyler and feels that he is remorseful and repentant of his misdeeds.

 

Update-

Schuyler Barbeau will be released Monday November 20, 2017 at 10:00 a.m.  His Mother is planning a party for him after his release, which may take some time since he will be required to do a lot of paperwork etc.  I will post details if I can find them.  Welcome Home Schuyler!

Calf-Roped Into Submission - Private Property Rights - Google Fiber & Due-process

The Corporatocracy That Bound Ray Keller In Defending Family & Property & Stripped Him of His Firearms and Constitutional Rights

 

 

Meet Ray Keller of Utah County.  He's a family man, who along with his wife, home-school their children and believe in the free-market system, until Google Fiber and Provo Police decided their rights trumped Keller's Private Property Rights and his God Given Right to protect such.  Keller had repeatedly called Google Fiber to inform them not to enter his property, as they had done repeatedly in order to service their clients using the service, Keller chose not to use the services of Google and continue paying for his current WiFi and Cable Company.  Although the Keller's had personally asked the servicemen to vacate his property on several occasions, Google Fiber sent servicemen in unmarked vehicles and no company logo or ID on their person to his property while he was not at home and his wife and children where home alone.  After the servicemen ignored his wife's demands to leave the property Ray was summoned home, and as Keller relates,

"The Provo police eventually made their way to me in my front yard and short story, they handcuffed and arrested me in front of my family cause two men claimed that I pointed my shotgun at them.  A blessing later revealed itself is that two of my neighbors witnessed all of this and saw that I never pointed my gun at anyone and are both willing to testify to this.

 I'm now facing two counts of Aggravated Assault which are felonies. What that means is that I could be taken to prison and away from the family I support and protect.  As I was carted away to prison the two men working for Google Fiber were escorted back onto my property without even a slap on the wrist."

In short Ray Keller will be facing trial next month and needs the help of every constitutionally minded citizen in his defense!  I include his version of the events in several formats and ask that you donate to his efforts in defending himself against this tyranny.

Ray Keller's Story In His Own Words. 

Listen to Radio Interview Defending Utah on K-Talk 630 AM #LibertyLineUp The Naked Truth with Ben McClintock and Enoch Moore.

Via generosity:

"I'm gonna start with my story then introduce myself at the end. (I'll say this much now. I am a father of almost 5 (any day now) and the sole provider for my family so hopefully you will take a few minutes to hear me out and help if you can.)

I've already received an email back from a friend who thinks I was stupid and wrong.  I'm not saying I made the best decision and I'll be the first to say there is always room for improvement but I don't deserve prison or a felony.

I live in Provo, Utah which is one of the first test cities to be blessed with Google Fiber. I say that sarcastically of course. Google Fiber gives away "free" internet service to everyone in the city, which to anyone not in Provo, this might seem like a screaming deal.  I would probably agree 20 years ago but today, I strongly believe that nothing is Free and there is always a price even if it's not monetary.

With that understanding, my family chose to continue to support the free market way of doing things and still pay a local provider for our TV and Internet Service rather than contribute to the entitlement mentality of get something for nothing that already plagues our great Nation.

This should be the end of my story...but it isn't. It's only just begun.

Over the course of many months I was continually harassed by Google Fiber reps coming to my home. My first encounter with Google Fiber, I found someone already in my backyard where I politely asked him who he was and what was he doing there. He said he was with Google Fiber and needed to access the utility line that was in my neighbor's yard and because she had a fence around her yard and I didn't, he had to use my yard. I told him that I don't subscribe to Google Fiber and I don't want him in my yard. He said he had an "easement" right granted to him by the city.  I didn't understand how that could be possible since Google is a private company, so I politely asked him to provide evidence of the easement or leave.  Since he couldn't, he grudgingly left against his will.

I then called Google Fiber directly to notify them that I do not want to be a pest but I also don't want to be pestered anymore by their reps on my property and that I intentionally pay another local provider for their service with the sole purpose of not having to deal with Google Fiber. The attendant said that they do have an easement and that I couldn't do anything about it.  I told the attendant that I expect proof of this easement, not just her word, if we are to comply. She apologized but said that there is nothing we could do about it.

Over the course of many months, we were repeatedly harassed by their reps knocking at my door wanting permission to work on the pole without the proof of easement we requested.  We would ask them every time to show us proof or evidence of an "utility easement" that they said they had but they would never provide it.  Instead they would just get back into their little Google Fiber mini vans and appear to make a phone call then just leave. This continued for months until the day I was arrested and removed from my family and property as they were escorted back onto my property.

If you don't wish to read on you can watch the video link I provided which is an audio recording I did of my story with a local radio station.

I'll try to summarize my story for those that are still reading but the devil is in the details.

..My wife and kids were home alone earlier this summer. My pregnant wife was resting when a knock came at the door. My kids went and looked out the window to see who it was. There were two men in regular clothes, no uniforms except for an orange vest. (With the wisdom of my wife, she took pictures of these men later as I was carted off to jail) Because they were strangers and my kids didn't recognize them, they ignored their knock.  Before long, the kids noticed the two men in our backyard.  They told my wife that the two guys that knocked on our door are now in our back yard on the utility line, that again, is in our neighbors yard. My wife got up and told the kids to stay inside and she'll go try to find out who they are and why they are here.

My wife then went into our backyard and asked them to identify themselves and why they are in our backyard. They said that they were with Google Fiber.  My wife told them that we don't want them in our yard without proof of easement and that we've already told many of their reps that have come before. They said the same thing, that they have an easement and there is nothing we can do about it.  Instead of providing evidence like we asked, they ignored my wife telling her that they too need to feed their families and basically that we couldn't do anything about it.  They thought it was enough to simply identify themselves in word and that we had to take them at face value, two strangers not in uniform and without the normal Google Fiber trucks you see all around town.

My wife then called me at work to tell me about the two strangers in our yard. I told her that I would come home right away. I drove home as quick as I could and came inside to grab my empty shotgun from the basement and came upstairs.  My wife saw the gun and asked if I knew what I was doing.  I opened my shotgun to clear it and showed my wife that it was empty. I told her that "I've thought this through, the gun is empty and that I'm not going to shoot anyone but I am gonna get these guys off our property." I walked outside and closed my shotgun out of the sight of the men but because they heard me close my shotgun, they said I racked it to shoot them.

Because they heard me close my shotgun, the manager, who later admitted in court that they came in two because they knew that I didn't give permission without proof of easement to come on my property.  He knew in advance that I didn't want them there but still decided to do it anyway since no one answered the door when they knocked. Once they heard my gun close and I walked into the backyard yelling "my wife's home alone and she tells you you're not welcome and you just ignore her", I said "pack up your stuff, you have 5 minutes to get your stuff and leave"  As they left, they said that they would call the police and have me arrested which I said to "go ahead."  I said "if you're Google Fiber I've asked you repeatedly to provide proof of easement and you just ignore my pregnant wife is unacceptable."

Even with my empty shotgun they still didn't leave right away but argued with me for a bit.  Once they finally left, I put my shotgun away and looked out my front window to see where they were.  I saw that they were both on their cell phones probably calling the police so I called the police to let them know who I was and that my shotgun had been put away since they left my property as I asked. After I called and told the dispatcher that my shotgun was put away, i went into my front lawn and waited for the police to come and talk to me.

The Provo police eventually made their way to me in my front yard and short story, they handcuffed and arrested me in front of my family cause two men claimed that I pointed my shotgun at them.  A blessing later revealed itself is that two of my neighbors witnessed all of this and saw that I never pointed my gun at anyone and are both willing to testify to this.

I'm now facing two counts of Aggravated Assault which are felonies. What that means is that I could be taken to prison and away from the family I support and protect.  As I was carted away to prison the two men working for Google Fiber were escorted back onto my property without even a slap on the wrist.

One of the police officers told me as I was arrested that if I don't like the rules in Provo that I should move.  I took that advice to heart since this whole thing left me heartbroken that I could be treated like this in my own city on my own property.

Here's my plea for help:

I have a really good attorney, someone who loves our Country, Liberty and Freedom as much as I do and he's already working virtually for free since I don't have much money to throw at my defense.   Our hands are tied since he also has his own big family to support so needs to take on full paying customers and his time is limited to help us. Since the prosecutor is only offering me one felony instead of two (out of the kindness of her heart), we've decided to fight this all the way which means going to a jury trial to free me completely. A trial by jury, as I'm discovering the hard way, is a very costly and time consuming thing to prepare for, so bare minimum, I need $7k but more likely $10k as minimum to fight this effectively.

My trial is in early December and I have a final pretrial conference coming up in two weeks so I need the money yesterday but I feel blessed to find this site even this late in the game and the emotional support we've already received is nothing short of a miracle.

I think it goes without saying that if you're a father, whether you agree or disagree with my choices, you would say I don't deserve to go to prison or be burdened with a felony that will make my future as a provider complicated at best. 

If there is anything you take away from this donate or not is that when one person's freedom is taken unjustly, no one is safe.  Please stand with me to be victorious and vote with your dollars.  A victory against evil benefits everyone.

My name is Ray Keller and I thank you in advance for your donations and prayers."

In the words of Pastor Martin Niemöller-

"First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me."

Update:

October 17, 2016

A lot has happened since my last update.  I dismissed my existing attorney about 9 months ago and found a new attorney Mike Petro who has been helping me  We are scheduled for a 3 day jury trial the first week of November where I will be acquitted with our Father in Heaven's help.  I am not updating all of you to raise more money but to give you all an update especially those who have helped with a donation, kind words or prayers.



Thank you!  Hopefully I will be available to update you in a few weeks.

Epilogue

Ray Keller had his day in court.  It was a lengthy process that took over a year, with his first Attorney, Morgan Philpot, Keller was told, "no matter how much money he had to fight his case, he would no win".  Philpot eventually coaxed Keller into a Plea Deal.  Keller's eyes were opened when he saw the paperwork the court produced that included many pages, much of which were lists that went on and on, of every item he had purchased/owned.  Keller immediately felt he had done the wrong thing by signing the Plea Deal.  That evening he wrote a handwritten letter to the Judge explaining he was not fully aware of what he was signing, and asked his Plea be Rescinded.  Keller dismissed Morgan Philpot and through a lot of personal research and referrals hired a new Attorney Mike Petro.

Ray said how tirelessly Mike Petro worked on his case, getting that Plea Rescinded was the first item of business.  Then it was preparation for trial and Jury Selection, as he now was going to have a Jury of his peers hear his case and not have the Judge hand down his punishment.  Ray said Mike Petro worked so hard that he didn't sleep through much of the time he spent preparing, including making sure Morgan Philpot's name remained clean in the eyes of the Attorney's Community, apparently if you are dismissed by your client your reputation/record gets "dinged", so Petro was going out of his way to help Philpot, with great success Keller said.  Ray was able to sit in on Jury Selection.  He was pretty pleased with the Jury selected with the exception of one woman, a fairly young mother, who did not like to idea of guns at all, and didn't think there was really a need for them.

Ray went to trial, his wife and his neighbor testifying on his behalf.  As a side note.  Keller's neighbor who was an eye witness, when interviewed by Morgan Philpot, Keller was told he was a "hostile witness" and would be no use in Ray's case.  Come to find out this was NOT the case at all!  As Attorney Mike Petro hired a Private Investigator to research the man and do a face to face interview with him, he turned out to be very credible.  Keller himself took the stand in his own defense.  Although the Prosecutors really came unhinged trying to rattle Keller and his wife on the stand, they were unsuccessful.  Keller says, "it's easy to tell your story when it is the truth".  Ray was brought to tears while Attorney Mike Petro gave closing arguments.  The Jury deliberated for six hours and came back with a Not Guilty verdict!  Even the woman who he was concerned about, who thought guns were "scary", acquitted him!  He did say there was one holdout though, a young man who was determined Ray was going to use his victory for "political purposes".  He warned Ray in the parking lot after the verdict not to do so.

Ray was victorious, despite Chris Jones of KUTV News smearing his name as a "gun-toting thug".  In the end it was the Jury, Jury Nullification, that acquitted him.  The Jury saw through the Prosecution trying to make him out as the "bad guy".  The Jury heard the truth and could identify with it, and, Ray Keller Won!  A small victory for The Constitution and "the right to keep and bare arms" to protect Life, Liberty and Property, which guarantees happiness.  A true success story!

Some of the interesting facts exposed during the case...one of the men that contracted with Google Fiber to do installation of their product had a wrap-sheet six feet long!  Remember, the Provo Police woman shown in the KUTV story had Keller stripped of his unloaded firearm and carted off to jail while the two men were escorted back on to Keller's property by the Police and Keller's wife and small children were left at home without their protector!  Also, the Provo Police Department was supposed to return Keller's rifle to him after the trial, and although Keller has called them repeatedly, they have failed to do so.  So, it's a partial victory.

Keller, soon after his wrongful arrest and imprisonment, moved from the neighborhood where the Provo Police Department told him, "if you don't like the way things are run around here, MOVE"!   

 

  Please watch the video above to see a recap of Ray's story and an interview after his acquittal.

 I think it is important to note that Attorney Morgan Philpot has been retained by Ammon Bundy for his upcoming trial in Nevada after the roundup the Federal Government made of individuals two years after the Protest at Bundy Ranch.  If money couldn't buy a defense in this small case, how is Philpot going to provide a defense for Ammon regarding the biggest news story of 2014?  And, Ammon was only the cook for the biggest part of the protest, cooking and serving food to 200 people a day.  He was instrumental in negotiating a truce with Sheriff's Deputy Tom Roberts and the Bureau Of Land Management on the final day of the protest.  After hearing Ray Keller's story, I for one, am very concerned!  Is is too late to get Marcus Mumford back?
