What can Students do in the 21st century?

If a police officer/officers were assigned to a high school in rural New Jersey such as Hunterdon Central High School in the 1970's or early 80's, the students would have walked out in protest. It is unfortunate that high school students are losing their rights. The Cinderella Drivers License Law for New Jersey residents under 18 is ridiculous and gives the police another reason to pull over teenagers. Police officers stopping students or non-students with no probable cause is a disgrace and should not be tolerated by the citizens. Of course, the students also have to take responsibility and conduct themselves in a Godly manner.

If God and the Christian worldview are rejected, then all your rights will disappear—you will either have anarchy or totalitarianism. Remember: The Protestant Reformation was responsible for many of yours rights in the Constitution and Bill of Rights such as double jeopardy (cannot be tried twice—a 5th Amendment Right, which came from the Biblical concept of justification by faith alone, through Christ alone), self-incrimination (freedom of conscience—a 5th Amendment Right, which came from the Reformation), religious freedom, etc. Secular humanism will not bring you freedom, but bondage! Action that can be taken by students:

• If you are 18, register to vote and declare a party so you can vote in the primary. For example, say you register as a Republican, then you can vote for a primary candidate that is not a Globalist or an establishment (Rhino) Republican, but a Constitutionalist and Nationalist that cares about the working class and poor.

• Write complaints to your State Senator and Assemblyman or Assemblywoman.

• If a local police department pulls you over with no probable cause, record the time and place and officer's name--a complaint can be filed with the prosecutor's office in your county, who is over the municipal police offers in the county, not the Sheriff's Office. Unfortunately, there have been problems and abuses, especially in the juvenile court system, with many of the county prosecutors' offices in New Jersey—this is shameful and an abomination to God. (Pennsylvania elects their County District Attorneys, which is the equivalent to New Jersey's County Prosecutor—the Governor of New Jersey appoints each County Prosecutor (the State Senator in the district will recommend or nominate a person for the position), which has to be approved by the NJ State Senator in the district—however, the appointment can be blocked by the State Senator in his or her district.)

• Encourage your elected local township committee men or women to phase out their local police department over a 15 year period and have the Sheriff's Office patrol the township, which is done in many states across this nation. In New Jersey, the taxpayers will save themselves a lot of money. And if the Sheriff's Department does not conduct themselves properly, you can vote for a new sheriff; you do not have this option with a police chief (look what happened in Raritan Twp., Hunterdon County); see Sheriff's Office Information on Supplemental Coverage & Mergers -- PDF (2017/2020 Tri-fold Tract).

• Students could boycott their high school if their rights are flagrantly violated—do not show up. This is in no way implies anarchy or the use of violence.

See article on Students Losing Freedoms and Unnecessary Searches and Drug Testing in High Schools[The President of NJIAT does not believe that students should be taking drugs unless it is for medical reasons; however, to make a major crime out of a student smoking a joint or having a beer or other alcoholic beverages (which is Biblically permissible in moderation--see Whole Body Health tab and the article entitled Alcoholic Beverages in the Bible) is legislating unjust laws per Bible—a law is not justified because the federal or state government passes it; if this was the case, then one would have to accept what Hitler, Mao and Stalin did.]

Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association

This time-honored mission statement of American law enforcement is steadily giving way in police departments all across the nation to an ethos of intimidation, military-style siege, and disdain for citizens' rights. Richard Mack— the man who as sheriff of a rural Arizona county fought the Brady Bill gun-control law all the way to the Supreme Court and won—gives us an insider's glimpse into the pervasive forces that are relentlessly driving America towards a police state.

In almost confessional style, he recounts how he came to realize, while working as a beat cop, how wrong the all- too-common orientation of police officers is when they think of their job as being "to write tickets and arrest people." Richard Mack tells of his personal transformation from "by-the-numbers" cop to Constitution-conscious defender of citizens' safety and freedoms.

"The Proper Role of Law Enforcement" is a wake-up call for all law-enforcement officers. It is a must-read for every man and woman wearing a badge. If you have a friend or relative in law enforcement, make sure you get a copy into their hands. And get a copy for yourself, too. You'll be shocked to learn just how far American law enforcement has strayed from its mission "to serve and protect!"

Richard Mack, a graduate of the FBI National Academy, has served in a wide variety of positions over the course of his nearly twenty year career in law enforcement, including patrol officer, undercover narcotics officer, hostage negotiator, youth officer, school resource officer, communications supervisor, corporal, front desk sergeant, patrol sergeant, detective, sheriff, Search and Rescue supervisor, jail administrator, and DARE instructor.

Mack was named Elected Official of the Year by the Arizona-New Mexico Coalition of Counties in 1994, and the NRA Law Enforcement Officer of the Year in 1995. He is the recipient of the Gun Owners of America Defender of the Second Amendment Award, and of the Cicero Award from the Firearms Industry of America.

Mack's 1994 lawsuit challenging the Brady Bill catapulted him to national attention, with television appearances on The Donahue Show, Good Morning America, Crossfire, Nightline, and CNBC, among other, and with interviews on over 200 radio talk shows nationwide, ranging from G. Gordon Liddy and Michael Reagan to Blanquita Cullum and Pat Buchannan.

Mack is a popular lecturer on constitutional issues relating to gun control, law enforcement, states' rights, and the oath of office.
