PEACE OFFICER PROTECTION AND COMMUNITY RESPONSIBILITY ACTWe, the majority of the Citizens of the United States of America, hereby declare that Establishing Justice, Insuring Domestic Tranquility, and Securing the Blessings of Liberty are the shared Constitutional and Inalienable Responsibilities of the entire community of "We the People" that cannot and shall not be transferred or delegated to Federal, State, or local Peace Officers, thereby exposing them to an increased risk of injury or death doing a job that is properly the Inalienable individual Responsibility of every member of their community.
In order to insure that these United States shall continue to be, in actual fact, the "Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave" with "Liberty and Justice for All of We the People", the following Provisions shall be Enacted.
SECTION 1. The Supreme Court of the United States of America properly ruled in DeShaney v. Winnebago and Castle Rock v. Gonzales that Peace Officers have no Constitutional duty, responsibility, or obligation to protect or defend the other members of their community or their property.
SECTION 2. Therefore, all Federal, State, and local Peace Officers are public servants who have no Constitutional duties, Rights, or Privileges that are superior to or exceed the Inalienable Rights of any other member of the communities they serve.
SECTION 3. Therefore the Unconstitutional legal fiction doctrine that empowers or requires any Peace Officer to issue and execute an extrajudicial warrant, under the Doctrine of Probable Cause, to detain or arrest a person, conduct a search, or seize their property, that is superior to, or exceeds, the equal Rights of any other Person in the community they serve to issue and execute an extrajudicial warrant for probable cause in that situation on their own volition and responsibility, is abolished and forbidden by this Act.
SECTION 4. We further declare that the Unconstitutional legal fiction designation of Federal, State, or local Peace Officers as domestic paramilitary "law enforcement officers" or "police officers" with qualified or conditional civil or criminal immunity creates an Unconstitutional "police state" that puts our Peace Officers and the members of their communities at an increased and unnecessary risk of injury or death.
SECTION 5. The possession of firearms or any other self defense weapons and their use in self defense or any other use of force, of their own volition and on their own responsibility, by any Peace Officer when exercising their own personal Inalienable right to defend their own Life, Liberty or Property, that may not be equally possessed and lawfully employed by any other member of the community they serve, in defense of their own Life, Liberty, or Property of their own volition and on their own responsibility, shall be forbidden by this Act and they shall be criminally and civilly liable for their actions under exactly the same justified self defense doctrine as any other member of their community.
SECTION 6. The 4th and 14th Amendments to the Constitution of the United States clearly state that no extrajudicial warrant shall be issued to deprive any member of the community of their Life, or Liberty, or conduct a search, or seize their Property.
SECTION 7. Therefore, the currently applied extrajudicial "Probable Cause Doctrine" that allows any person to issue and execute an extrajudicial warrant of their own volition and on their own responsibility, must apply equally to Peace Officers and all other members of the communities they serve.
SECTION 8. All Constitutionally issued judicial warrants shall be served and executed by Peace Officers, and/or members of the community, with a minimum use of force to reduce the risk of injury or death to Peace Officers and members of the community they serve.
SECTION 9. The use of paramilitary SWAT teams to serve and execute no-knock or any other judicially issued warrant shall be prohibited when the probable cause evidence relied upon to issue the warrant does not specifically state that a violent felony crime has occurred or a hostage situation exist that requires the use of military weapons and tactics when all other options have been exhausted.
SECTION 10. The proper Constitutional duty of all Peace Officers when engaging members of their communities is to identify themselves as Peace Officers, employ non-violent conflict resolution and crisis management techniques when appropriate and immediately record evidence for possible judicial review and to aid and assist all other members of their communities to establish Justice and Insure Domestic Tranquility when possible.
SECTION 11. The primary duty and responsibility of all Peace Officers shall be to obtain video and audio evidence for the use of the judicial system to properly conduct law enforcement proceedings when required. Upon arriving on the scene of any situation, Peace Officers shall immediately begin to record all relevant video and audio evidence utilizing all available video and audio devices including, but not limited to, hand held and body cameras, vehicle cameras, video equipped glasses, night vision and infrared cameras, etc.
SECTION 12. In order to reduce the risk to our Peace Officers and the other members of the communities they serve, Peace Officers must maintain a minimum 50 foot safety buffer zone from any community members who pose a confrontational risk to the Peace Officer that might result in their injury or death.
SECTION 13. In any potentially dangerous confrontational situations, Peace Officers must continue to maintain at least their 50 foot safety buffer zone even if they must retreat or leave the area.
SECTION 14. Due to the excessive risk to Peace Officers and members of the public associated with any traffic stop, and to resolve any community concerns of "policing for profit" and not to Establish Justice, Insure Domestic Tranquility, or Secure the Blessings of Liberty, the following sub-sections are enacted.
14 a. A Peace Officer may not conduct a traffic stop of a vehicle when that vehicle does not present a clear and present, not hypothetical and improbable, danger to other people or their property.
14 b. Specifically, seat belt, cell phone, helmet, registration sticker, slow rolling stops, speeds that are the flow of traffic, a headlight or tail light out, or any other low or no risk technical violation of a law that does not constitute a clear and present danger shall not constitute cause for an extrajudicial stop which constitutes a detention and arrest warrant without probable cause.
SECTION 15. When conducting any traffic stop a Peace Officer must remain in their vehicle unless they feel they would be safer by exiting their vehicle and retreating from the scene on foot.
SECTION 16. During a traffic stop the Peace Officer must use their vehicle's external sound system to instruct the driver to follow their directions and they must collect as much video and audio evidence as possible and any ticket must be mailed or otherwise delivered to the driver after judicial review of the evidence.
SECTION17. Under no circumstances shall a Peace Officer engage in a vehicle or foot pursuit of any member of the community when it would put the Peace Officer or members of the community at risk of injury or death.
SECTION 18. To further address the community concerns of "policing and the judicial system operating for profit", any and all fines, fees, cash, or proceeds from property seized by any level of Federal, State, or local Peace Officer organization or judicial court shall be used exclusively for the treatment of the victims of crime and restitution of their losses.
SECTION 19. It is beyond question that the governments of the United States were created by our Founders to Establish Justice, Insure Domestic Tranquility, and especially Secure the Blessings of Liberty for all of ''We the People" equally. Therefore any future official references to our respected and valued Peace Officers as paramilitary "police or law enforce officers" as a separate group of members of our communities with superior rights, privileges, and any civil and criminal immunity that exceeds the rights of all other members of our communities are forbidden by our Constitution and the Provisions of this Act.
SECTION 20. All Federal, State, and local Peace Officer organizations are hereby required to be proactive in immediately devising and implementing extensive training programs for their Peace Officers in non-violent conflict resolution and crisis management techniques to insure compliance with this Act aided by all available technologies
SECTION 21. In order to foster and promote a close working relationship between Peace Officers and the members of the communities they serve, all Peace Officer organizations shall encourage community volunteer ride along programs in patrol and other official Peace Officer vehicles. Volunteers shall be issued video equipment so they may back up the evidence collected by the Peace Officers.
Upon being Approved and Ratified by a majority of the adult Citizens of the United States of America, this Act shall immediately become Law.
I am adult Citizen of the United States of America, and I hereby Approve and Ratify this Act.
