Last Friday, Culture Night in Dublin, the Tola Vintage shop in Temple Bar's annual block party was shut down by the Gardaí, and three people were arrested. The police actions were met with criticism for the use of excessive force and suggestions of an underlying racial motivation.The Gardaí's statement about the matter cited "public safety concerns" but that doesn't explain how an innocuous gathering of people inside and outside a vintage shop escalated into baton-charging, threats of pepper-spray and a disproportionate number of guards clearing the busy Temple Bar area with an unwarranted heavy-handiness.The incident happened, in an increasingly hostile environment for minority communities in Ireland. Why was a block party in Temple Bar, that was giving no immediate pressing trouble, met with violence, while violence at far right protests and the burning of buildings earmarked for asylum seekers goes unpunished?Ireland is seeing an increasing number of anti-immigrant accounts online, and the verbal abuse of people of colour has increased, while just this week, the government's Justice Minister Helen McEntee has dropped the incitement or hate speech sections of the Criminal Justice Bill.On this week's podcast, we talk to Silent Jee, a DJ on the night about what went down from his perspective, and how the guards showing up at the block party is nothing new. We explore how these kinds of actions are familiar to black and POC in Ireland's creative community. We talk to Mo Cultivation's Bekah Molony about what allies and peers can do and how nothing has changed since the Black Lives Matter movement in 2020. Things have arguably gone the other way.* Support Nialler9 on Patreon, get event discounts, playlists, ad-free episodes and join our Discord communityListen on Apple | Android | ACAST | Patreon | Pocketcasts | CastBox | Stitcher | Spotify | RSS Hosted on Acast.

Una noche blanca (A White Night) es un relato gótico de la escritora inglesa Charlotte Mew (1869-1928), publicado originalmente en la dición de mayo de 1903 de la revista Temple Bar. Una noche blanca, uno de los mejores cuentos de Charlotte Mew, relata la historia de tres ingleses: Cameron y Ella [hermanos] y King [esposo de Ella], quienes visitan una aldea rural de Andalucía, España, en la primavera de 1876. El énfasis incial se pone sobre Ella, quien muestra una gran fortaleza física para aceptar «cualquier cosa que sucediera, desde la suciedad hasta el peligro». El día del «incidente», el grupo tiene una jornada de viaje agotadora por una «carretera blanca y recta», hasta que llegan a una posada en un pueblo remoto. A pesar de su fatiga, Ella incita a sus compañeros a dar un paseo lejos del pueblo. Pronto se topan con una antigua iglesia y un convento a la «sombra de una colina»: «La gran estructura gris era impresionante por su soledad, su negación rotunda del mundo exterior, su desapego inexpresivo.» Buscando refugio ingresan «en un pequeño claustro» al final del cual encuentran una puerta abierta. El lugar está iluminado por la luz mortecina de una ventana. Al intentar salir se dan cuenta que la puerta está cerrada y, después de considerar varios métodos de escape, se disponen a esperar hasta la mañana para ser rescatados por el sacristán. La completa quietud, oscuridad y silencio de la capilla los oprime: «La quietud se volvió insistente; era literalmente mortal, rígida, excluyente, incluso terriblemente remota. Nos excluía y nos mantenía apartados; nuestras presencias pasivas, nuestra mera vitalidad, parecían casi una perturbación.» Alrededor de la medianoche, el intranquilo descanso del grupo se ve perturbado por «una nota penetrante e intermitente», un grito, seguido del cántico de una procesión. Son unos «cincuenta o sesenta monjes» comprometidos en una ceremonia, un ritual, que culmina con el entierro de una mujer [viva] bajo una losa ante el altar. Cameron, quien narra esta historia, no interviene, e impide activamente que King lo haga bajo el pretexto de que ellos también están en peligro, aunque en realidad es presa de una fascinación morbosa [ver: La atracción por lo macabro]. Cuando los monjes abandonan la iglesia los tres intentan encontrar la losa en la oscuridad, pero al amanecer se dan cuenta que sus esfuerzos han sido inútiles: han encontrado la losa pero no pueden levantarla y abandonan la iglesia. El grupo denuncia el episodio al cónsul británico, quien sólo se encoge de hombros. Les sugiere abandonar España en las próximas horas. Cameron señala, como comentario final, que este episodio todavía atormenta los sueños de Ella y que ella nunca lo ha perdonado. Lo cierto es que Cameron está conmovido por el ritual; sin embargo, hay algo en el comportamiento de la mujer sacrificada que le hace sentir que salvarla estaría mal. «Ella tenía un papel que desempeñar», y continúa describiendo con una especie de éxtasis la expresión inescrutable de su rostro: «Vi su cara. Era de una belleza sorprendente, pero, ¿cuál era su edad? No se podría decir. Tenía los tintes, la pureza de la juventud... de no ser por un velo de fina represión que sólo los años podrían haber tejido. Y era en sí mismo —ese rostro— una máscara, una de las más hermosas máscaras que el espíritu jamás haya usado. ¿Esas facciones ardieron de pasión? ¿Se contrajeron de pena? ¿Acaso sonrió?» Al menos para Cameron, el rostro de la mujer posee agencia propia; es independiente de su cuerpo [ver: El cuerpo de la mujer en el Gótico]. No la ve como una víctima, a pesar de que ella misma ha entrado a la iglesia gritando. Cameron observa [no está claro con qué autoridad] que estos gritos desgarradores son simples reflejos instintivos, mientras que su rostro impasible es la verdadera clave de su estado emocional: «Ella yace ahora en el mismo centro del santuario: tiene un lugar exclusivamente sagrado para su orden, las tradiciones de su especie. Fue este honor, que satisfacía algún orgullo de espíritu o de raza, lo que la ayudó a salir honorablemente.» Es decir que, para Cameron, la mujer no fue sacrificada contra su voluntad; ella misma lo consideraba un «honor» que «satisfacía algún orgullo de espíritu o de raza». Sus clamores desesperados son parte de su desempeño en el ritual. Esto la convierte en la verdadera protagonista de Una noche blanca, o al menos el único personaje indivualizado. Los monjes, en cambio, no son tratados como individuos sino como una entidad confusa e indistinta. Solo obtenemos diferencias superficiales entre ellos, pero sus personalidades están ausentes, se vuelven insignificantes porque son una multitud: «Algunos de los rostros tocaban la divinidad, otros caían por debajo de la humanidad; algunos eran simplemente una mancha de libro y una campana, y todos estaban impasibles hacia la mujer que estaba de pie. Y entonces se perdía el sentido de su diversidad en su semejanza; la similitud persistió hasta que la hilera de rostros pareció fusionarse en uno solo (un rostro sin nada de humano), en un sistema, en una regla. Se cerraron sobre la mujer, se sentía su fuerza: no eran manos de hombres.» Charlotte Mew urde en esta escena una brillante representación de un sistema [que hoy llamaríamos patriarcado] cuyos engranajes están compuestos por gente común, personas que no son «ni santos ni demonios». Ningún monje coloca a la mujer en la tumba; ella entra y se acuesta, pero esos rostros impersonales han creado la atmósfera para que la mujer pueda hacerse eso a sí misma. No se trata de un sistema opresivo tradicional que actúa bajo la amenaza de un castigo, sino más bien de una estructura que obliga a que las personas actúen contra sus propios intereses. King, el marido de Ella, se siente impulsado a ayudar a la mujer, y podría haber sido el héroe de esta historia, pero Cameron lo detiene. Este último percibe únicamente el lado simbólico de la experiencia, la considera «un crimen bastante espléndido». Sólo Ella sigue atormentada por el episodio, algo que Cameron, sugiere, se debe a su irracionalidad femenina: «Ella se niega a admitir que, después de todo, lo que uno se complace en llamar realidad es simplemente la intensidad de su ilusión». Cameron, como representante de la masculinidad, puede darse el lujo de creer que la realidad es una ilusión, porque en muchos sentidos lo es para él. La mujer en el altar no puede permitirse estas reflexiones filosóficas porque la realidad cae sobre ella con todo su peso. Charlotte Mew establece un espectáculo central que, en apariencia, separa la razón de la irracionalidad, lo civilizado de lo bárbaro; pero en realidad es una especie de teatro macabro que concede deleite y gratificación a los observadores, mientras que sus participantes sólo experimentan horror. Para deleitarse con el ritual, Cameron debe cubrir todo el asunto bajo el manto de lo exótico, debe convencerse de que la mujer está actuando «honorablemente», de lo contrario él mismo se transformaría en un voyeurista perverso. Su hermana, Ella, se resiente porque descubre que la mujer sacrificada fue apenas un «espectáculo» para él, y Cameron acepta esto explícitamente. Encuentra belleza y «arte» en la experiencia del mismo modo en que Edgar Allan Poe consideraba que el motivo más sublime del arte es la muerte de una mujer hermosa [ver: Mi esposa nigromante: análisis de «Ligeia»] Charlotte Mew nos obliga a observar todo a través de la mirada de Cameron, quien no es un observador pasivo, sino que participa del ritual al impedir que King y Ella puedan hacer algo al respecto. Al narrar este demencial sacrificio, elige mantenerse ajeno a las implicaciones más amplias del «espectáculo»; y al observar el asesinato está desprovisto de sentimientos básicos. Para deleitarse, necesita ver e interpretar los acontecimientos sin compasión. De ese modo la mujer es «arte», no un ser humano vivo. Se entiende que el narrador de Una noche blanca es Cameron, quien abre el primer párrafo. Lo que sigue a continuación se acepta como una continuación del discurso inicial de Cameron, pero esto no es así. Un «Yo» no identificado emerge después de la introducción y asegura haber transcripto fielmente el relato de Cameron: «Yo lo escribí la noche que me lo contó y, gracias a un truco de precisión, creo que tienes en tus manos la historia tal como la escuché, casi palabra por palabra.» Este escriba anónimo no desarrolla la historia en tercera persona, sino que [«gracias a un truco de precisión»] repite la historia tal como la escuchó de Cameron [«casi palabra por palabra»]. Por alguna razón, los acontecimientos de Una noche blanca hacen que uno olvide esta ironía inicial y confíe en la autoridad narrativa de Cameron, cuando en realidad toda la historia depende de este «truco de precisión» no especificado. No estamos leyendo la interpretación de Cameron de lo que pasó aquella noche en el claustro, sino la reinterpretación de un tercero. De hecho, el propio Cameron reconoce la inutilidad de la narrativa como medio para expresar lo que ha ocurrido [«El incidente... se estropea inevitablemente al contarlo»]. Para salvar esta distancia entre el hecho y su relato, Cameron asegura que la muerte de la mujer fue un «asunto medieval». Es decir, intenta que el lector no juzgue con ojos actuales [1876], sino que «retroceda algunos siglos» para que este horror «adquiera el significado apropiado». Una noche blanca está impregnado de esta especie de conciencia de la imposibilidad: Cameron no puede contar lo que ocurrió sin «estropearlo»; el escriba no puede transcribir esta narración imperfecta [lo hace «casi» palabra por palabra]; Cameron no intercede para impedir que los monjes entierren viva a la mujer, y todo esto es precedido por la admisión de que el «significado» del texto solo es accesible a través de su objetivación. Al final de Una noche blanca, Cameron reconoce que los acontecimientos de la historia requieren que se los reconstruya en la imaginación. Charlotte Mew juega con esta imposibilidad para narrar los acontecimientos, no porque estos no tengan sentido sino porque surgen de un sistema de creencias [la España rural del siglo XIX] ajeno al de quienes se proponen representarlos [la Inglaterra victoriana]. Cameron, King y Ella son «turistas concienzudos», poseen un conocimiento muy rudimentario de la lengua y la cultura españolas. Por ejemplo, cuando Ella intenta hablar con el posadero: «la conversación, decididamente marcada por elogios por su parte, por parte de ella quedó un poco embotada por un vocabulario limitado, y nos dejó a ambos presumiendo un margen para la imaginación». La posterior descripción del ritual sigue esta misma premisa: imaginar para llenar los baches y de este modo asegurarse una forma provisional de comprensión. El significado del ritual nunca se revela. No sabemos porqué la mujer es enterrada viva, pero evidentemente los perpetradores no son un grupo marginal de la sociedad; son monjes y sacerdotes. El hecho de que la iglesia esté situada junto a un convento podría sugerir que la mujer enterrada es una monja o una novicia. Charlotte Mew no proporciona ningún indicio adicional, pero es lícito suponer que si se necesita una mujer, preferente virgen, para llevar a cabo un sacrificio, el convento vecino es una buena opción para conseguirla. Si este fuese un cuento de M.R. James, la mujer habría sido encerrada en la tumba para alimentar a algún vampiro o demonio en las catacumbas de la iglesia; de hecho, podemos pensar que «la sombra de una sonrisa» en los labios de la mujer [a punto de ser enterrada viva] podría revelar que ella tiene sus propios planes. Su vestido blanco, su velo que recuerda a una novia, su aceptación de la muerte, su carácter inescrutable para los hombres, la «plena posesión de sí misma», sugieren que es algo más que una víctima pasiva. Cameron nota que su «presencia», «su perturbación», no dejan «huella» en los monjes; es decir, ninguno reacciona ante sus gritos. «Para ellos, de hecho, ella no estaba». Lo curioso es que la mujer también parece extrañamente inconsciente de quienes la rodean. Sus gritos y sus movimientos parecen «mecánicos», como si fuese una puesta en escena. Para Cameron, la mujer «no era del todo real, no vivía del todo y, sin embargo, su presencia allí era la realidad suprema».

With restaurants closing down, the cost of living crisis continuing, and fears over further rioting, will people be eating out in Dublin's city centre this Christmas? Pat spoke to Adrian Cummins CEO, of the Restaurants Association of Ireland, and also Martin Harte CEO of The Temple Bar.

A new radio documentary, 35 Years of GCN, produced by Shaun & Maurice for Documentary and Drama on Newstalk, explores the story of Ireland's LGBTQ+ community through the pages of Ireland's longest-running free LGBTQ+ publication and press.The story of GCN (Gay Community News) is also the story of LGBTQ+ rights, history, and culture in Ireland. Since 1988, the magazine has reflected and documented the lives and lived experiences of LGBTQ+ people. The first issue of GCN was published from a small office at the top of the Hirschfield Centre in Dublin's Temple Bar, and since then it has been at the heart of the LGBTQ+ community.35 Years of GCN explores some of the LGBTQ+ stories captured by the magazine. The programme features an interview with Tonie Walsh who co-founded GCN with Catherine Glendon during the height of the AIDS epidemic. It features an interview with Senator David Norris about the foundation of GCN in the same year that he won his case against the Irish government at the European Court of Human Rights (which ruled the existence of laws in Ireland criminalising consensual gay sex to be illegal).The documentary also features interviews with former GCN editors Brian Finnegan and Lisa Connell, about the struggles and celebrations that have been documented by the nation's LGBTQ+ paper of record—including the introduction of civil partnership, the passing of both the marriage and abortion referendums, and the introduction of the gender recognition act.The programme was produced with funding from the Coimisiún na Meán Sound and Vision scheme.

As we ease our way into another Christmas season, we're practicing thta somewhat forgotten tradition of telling ghost stories at Christmas time! In 1883, Temple Bar magazine published a story by a writer and physician named Arthur Conan Doyle. Nowadays, we refer to him as sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and we know him best as the creator of that most famous of detectives: Sherlock Holmes. But this 1883 story isn't about Sherlock. It's about a ship trapped in arctic ice and the strange things the captain and crew experience. Join Brian for a reading of The Captain of the Polestar.

Niall Sabongi fell in love with seafood as a child living on the east coast of Ireland, where his father would bring him to the beach to find cockles and mussels to eat for dinner. Today, Niall is at the forefront of the conversation around Irish seafood. As a chef, he founded fish-centric favorite spots like Klaw, Saltwater Grocery, and most recently, The Seafood Cafe. While the stereotypical Irish ocean-based meal might be fish and chips or chowder, at Niall's restaurants, the incredibly wide range of Irish seafood is on display. Everything from oysters to crab to day boat scallops, as well as less common preparations like ceviche and cod collar, is prepared with expert attention and respect for the product.Niall also founded Sustainable Seafood Ireland, a wholesaler focusing on wild-caught Irish seafood. SSI supplies his restaurants and others, making sure that the freshest fish from Ireland's coasts gets on the plate at some of Ireland's best restaurants. During the pandemic, SSI pivoted and made their products available to individuals rather than restaurants, which helped increase general awareness of the truly incredible bounty of Irish wild seafood (something that historically has not been so widespread as it is today).We spoke to Niall about what drove him to focus on seafood, his evolution from chef to entrepreneur, why it's important to directly support independent, small boat fishermen, the seasonality of fish, and using oysters for water reclamation projects.Dyed Green is a project of Bog & Thunder, whose mission is to highlight the best of Irish food and culture, through food tours, events, and media.

The Corporation Of The City Of London•     City of London, municipal corporation and borough, London, England. Sometimes called “the Square Mile,” it is one of the "33" boroughs that make up the large metropolis of Greater London.   The borough lies on the north bank of the River Thames between the Temple Bar memorial pillar (commemorating the old Temple Bar gate) and the base of Tower Hill. The City Corporation is Britain's oldest local government; it has the status of a county, with powers that exceed those of London's "32" other boroughs, notably the control of its own police force. “The City,” as it is known, is only a component, relatively small in area, of the larger urban area known as London. Its area corresponds closely to that of the ancient city from which modern London has grown. The City belongs geographically to the historic county of Middlesex, but its special status and privileges gave it autonomy from that county for most of its history.   Britannica     The Latin motto of the City is Domine dirige nos, which translates as "Master, direct (guide) us". It appears to have been adopted in the 17th century, as the earliest record of it is in 1633. A banner of the arms (the design on the shield) is flown as a flag of the City.     14 dragon statues guarding the city of London. Many other depictions of Dragons adorn various buildings. Some inside, & some on the outer structure. Two at the main gates of the city. The crest of the city has the two dragons with the white shield and a Red Cross, & sword. The cross, & sword resemble upside down crosses. The official explanation says the crest is an homage to St. George was depicted in a fictional story saving a princess from a dragon. The story was loosely based on   St. George being a Templar Knight, & is often depicted in armor riding a stallion.   The Knight's Templar flags were also white with red crosses.   https://londonist.com/london/secret/dragon     Must Watch!   Occult Symbolism On Buildings In The Corporation Of The City Of London   https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2yv8x4     Same Video On YT   https://youtu.be/M9eHVWMF3XU     Another Great Video Showing More Symbolism In The City   https://youtu.be/8lMpTrgqt0M     More Symbolism   https://andrewgough.co.uk/london/       Gog, & Magog Symbolism In London   https://londonist.com/2016/01/gog-and-magog-who-are-they-and-what-do-they-have-to-do-with-london     We learned earlier that the Corporation City Of London is a, or the, most important city in the world for finance. Not to mention, a tax haven, & overseer of other British-controlled tax havens like the Cayman Islands, Jersey, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, the BVI, Gibraltar, & Bermuda.     Elite City of London Taxhavens   American banks moved their assets to "the City" to escape regulations.   Secrecy Jurisdictions, Cayman Islands...   https://youtu.be/-YgFDZNXPyg     The Templar Temple happens to be located in the Corporation City Of Government. The very place they ran their banking empire. Also, remember that one other other main hubs for The Templars was in Switzerland. Still famous for its banks. Not to mention, suspiciously the home of the Bank For International Settlements. Explain BIS. Like the Templars, the Corporation of The City Of London is exempt from laws that others have to go by. The connections are too much to ignore.     List of banks in London   http://www.ukcities.co.uk/City_of_London/Financial_Services/Banks_and_Building_Societies/     City of London ‘set for exemption from new global tax rules'   https://www.cityam.com/city-of-london-set-for-exemption-from-new-global-tax-rules/     Another connection•     It's well known, & even admitted in some circles that Freemasonry is the offspring of The Templars. Freemasonry is predominant in the square mile. The honorable Lord Mayor of the city is closely aligned with Freemasonry, & many Lord Mayors have been Masons. As many as 5000 Freemasons March in the yearly parade celebrating the election of the new Lord Mayor. The alleged oldest Masonic Lodge is located in the city. Author Stephen Knight wrote two detailed books about the influence of Freemasonry in London. He focused especially on the various police forces, & how Masonry had created a true good ole boy network which allowed numerous criminal acts to go unpunished. Stephen explains a little bit about the structure of government in the city.     Knights Templars   Hidden History: World Controllers, Knights Templars, City of London, Unknown American History (1of2)   https://sarahwestall.com/hidden-history-world-controllers-knights-templars-city-of-london-unknown-american-history-1of2/       Stephen Knight Book Excerpts   https://x-cain.angelfire.com/cityoflondon.html     Oldest Grand Lodge In London   https://www.thetravel.com/the-oldest-masonic-grand-lodge/     Freemasons Hall   https://www.countrylife.co.uk/architecture/grand-lodge-the-freemasons-hall-london-a-temple-to-peace-236315     Over 5,000 Freemasons and the Lord Mayor Attend the Services.

It is located in the wider Temple area, near the Royal Courts of Justice, and within the City of London.   https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inner_Temple     Bar Association   http://theftbydeception.blogspot.com/2010/02/bar-association-history-who-owns-us.html?m=1     "Leading justice scholars in the system of the UK are well aware that ....the Temple Church as the cradle of Common Law"   https://knightstemplarorder.org/heritage/templar-magna-carta/     The Conspiracy About The Bar Association     Quote:   "The government and legal system of the United States, Canada, Austraila, New Zealand and of course Britain, is totally controlled by the Crown. I have also stated that the British Monarch is not the Crown. The Crown is the Inner City of London, which is an independent State in London belonging to the Vatican system. It is a banking cartel which has a massive system around and beneath, which hides its true power.
The City is in fact the Knights Templar Church, also known as the Crown Temple or Crown Templar, and is located between Fleet Street and Victoria Embankment. The Temple grounds are also home to the Crown Offices at Crown Office Row. The Crown Temple controls the Global'Legal'system, including those in the United States, Canada,Australia, and much more; this is because all Bar Associations are franchises of the
International Bar Association at the Inns of Court at Crown Temple based at Chancery Lane in London.
   All Bar Associations are franchises of the Crown and all Bar Attorneys/ Barristers throughout the world pledge a solemn oath to the Temple, even though many may not be aware that this is what they are doing. Bar Association 'licensed' Solicitors / Barristers must keep to their Oath, Pledge and terms of allegiance to the Crown Temple if they are to be "called to the Bar" and work in the legal profession. The ruling Monarch is also subordinate to the Crown Temple, this as been so since the reign of King John in the 13th century when Royal Sovereignty was transferred to the Crown Temple and, through this, to the Roman Church.
King John 1167-1216 is the key to this deception."     "The present Queen of England is not the "Crown," as we have all been led to believe. Rather, it is the Bankers and Attornies (Attorneys) who are the actual Crown or Crown Temple. The Monarch aristocrats of England have not been ruling sovereigns since the reign of King John, circa 1215. All royal sovereignty of the old British Crown since that time has passed to the Crown Temple in Chancery.
The U.S.A. is not the free and sovereign nation that our federal government tells us it is. If this were true, we would not be dictated to by the Crown Temple through its bankers and attornies. The U.S.A. is controlled and manipulated by this private foreign power and our unlawful Federal U.S. Government is their pawnbroker.
The bankers and Bar Attorneys in the U.S.A. are a franchise in oath and allegiance to the Crownat Chancery - the Crown Temple Church and its Chancel located at Chancery Lane - a manipulative body of elite bankers and attorners from the independent City of London who violate the law in America by imposingfraudulent "legal"
- but totally unlawful - contracts on the American people. The banks Rule the Temple Church and the Attorners carry out their Orders by controlling their victim's judiciary."   "The legal system (judiciary) of the U.S.A. is controlled by the CrownTemple from the independent and sovereign City of London. The private Federal Reserve System, which issues fiat U.S. Federal Reserve Notes, is financially owned and controlled by the Crown from Switzerland, the home and legal origin for the charters of the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organization, and most importantly, the Bank of International Settlements.
Even Hitler respected his Crown bankers by not bombing Switzerland. The Bank of International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland [Vatican bank] controls all the central banks of the G7 nations.
He who controls the gold rules the world."   "The people who comprise the citizenry of a state are recognised only within natural and common law as is already established by God's Law. Only a State Citizen can be a party to an action within a State Court.
A common state citizen cannot be recognised in that court because he doesn't legally exist in Crown Chancery Courts. In order to be recognised in their State Courts, the common man must be converted to that of a corporate or legal entity (a legal fiction).
Now you know why they create such an entity using all capital letters within Birth Certificates issued by the State. They convert the common lawful man of God into a fictional legal entity subject to Administration by State Rules, Orders and Codes (there is no "law" within any Rule or Code). Of course, Rules, Codes, etc. do not apply to the lawful common man of the Lord of lords, so the man with inherent Godly law and rights must be converted into a legal "Person" of fictional "status" (another legal term) in order for their legal - but completely unlawful - State Judiciary (Chancery Courts) to have authority over him."   The CrownTemple
