There are only a few ways that you become guilty. I might miss some, but here is a list.
1. You are guilty if you say you are.
2. You are guilty if somebody who is stronger than you says you are.
3. You are guilty if you do harm or damage.
4. You are guilty if you break a contract (harm or damage).
That's about it.
In America, the bottom line law is based on man-to-man relationships (women included). This means that the government or anybody else, must face you man-to-man regarding any claim of legal or lawful a government official makes about you...
if you demand it. It's the same regarding claims that you make about anyone else.
Such thinking is based in the 9th Amendment, which allows individual people to overrule government. The rights of the people are what they had been before the Constitution and government were installed/initiated/created/formed.
This thinking is true about every government in the world simply because no government does anything except that people do it in positions of government. However, most of the other governments don't have the easy freedom for their people that America has, because it is not stated as such right in the foundation of the governments like the American 9th Amendment is in the U.S.
So, what is the claim of illegality that anyone makes against you? It is based on your self incrimination. The U.S. courts slyly attempt you to get you to incriminate yourself. You incriminate yourself when you make any kind of agreement with them, verbal or written. How does this work?
Because the government is paperwork, because it is agreements, if you make an agreement with anyone and bring it to court, there is a "fight" between the agreements. Don't make agreements with the court... not so much as between yourself and an attorney, or between yourself and yourself (self represented), or between yourself and the judge, or between yourself and anybody else.
In America, you aren't guilty unless you physically harm somebody, or unless you injure him by damaging his property, or unless you break a contract (which is harming somebody or damaging his property). When you make any agreements, with court or otherwise, the only way you can truly defend yourself is to get out of the agreements. If the courts say you have an agreement with them, you have to show that you don't. The way to do this is to bring it man to man, using the 9th amendment to show government people that government has no claim and power over you, by its own admittance, in the 9th Amendment.
You are only guilty in America through harm or damage, or if you say you are by agreement. You can force EVERYTHING into a man-to-man confrontation in the courts. Where is the injury or harm to the man who is accusing you?
