Conducting forums to discuss Constitutional rights’
issues, stressing the First Amendment; conducting
public access cable television and internet programs
featuring guests, interviews and documentaries on
current issues stressing the use of lawful, peaceful
and positive means to achieve democratic ends.
Conducting litigation (or amicus curiae) to lessen the
burdens of government under the “private attorney
general” method to secure and advance civil,
constitutional and First Amendment rights.
According to petitioner, “private attorney general” means that
“citizens assist in enforcement of the laws, saving the
government time and expense of doing so, such as by private
litigation”. Petitioner’s constitution states that it shall be a
nonprofit charitable and educational organization dedicated to
advancing American freedom, American democracy, and American
nationality.
Petitioner seeks to become the legal and educational arm of
rightist and promajority Americans. Petitioner states, in a
letter soliciting donations from the public, that it will use the
courts to bring “terrorists” who attack promajority demonstrators
to justice. The letter cites two examples of events where
petitioner would bring litigation using the “private attorney
general” technique:
In Simi Valley, self-described communists
advertised in the newspaper that they would kill
patriots assembled to thank the jury that acquitted
Officers Koon and Powell (Police officers accused of
beating Rodney King).
