📧 Capitol “doesn't belong to fragile elites” to Hanes

[response to "Conditions" email]

Sup Brett, cool name. Coupla things:

Nowhere in your first paragraph do you specify any federal, state, or local laws I may have violated such that a restriction of my Constitutional rights may be (lawfully) "restricted." The Oregon State Capitol is not private property, and you possess no private right to deprive other citizens of political power without cause.

Furthermore, "[your] authority" does not supersede the United States Constitution, federal law, or my rights thereunder. Therefore, your "decision to restrict" the lawful exercise of my rights is unlawful. Oregon is federated under said laws, not above. The very least the Constitution, and my service thereto, requires is access to political power. In other words, civil rights.

For the reason stated above, the rest of your letter is fundamentally irrelevant because I do not recognize authority without force of law. I will visit my state capitol whenever I damn well please, because it doesn't belong to fragile elites who can't tell the difference between their feelings and political determination.

Let's be real clear, if you continue to assert your so-called (and unlawful, private) power "under color of law," then you are gifting me a private right of action to sue you, Brettt Haines, under a couple of federal laws, namely 42 USC §§ 1983 and 1985(3). That is one gift I'd happily accept!

You have until midnight on Sunday, February 23, 205, to amend, retract, or rescind your illegitimate and unlawful written assertion.
