Judge Zeilinger!
With regards to your subpoena of 27 February: Without prejudicial admission, waiver, and with all due reserves: I do not recognize your jurisdiction.
I do not recognize the legality of your order of punishment. I do not recognize the legality of your subpoena. I do not recognize the legality of your laws curtailing freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom of opinion, and freedom of expression.
I do not recognize the legality of being asked to produce evidence when every single one of my defense witnesses and experts is either currently in prison, or is a fugitive from justice, for the "crime" of expressing their internationally recognized freedom of expression, and when every one of their expert opinions and books, have, without exception, been banned, confiscated and burnt.
I demand all documents in English in accordance with article 6, section 3A-C of the European Human Rights Convention.
I demand an indictment based on facts, not opinions and conclusions, so that I may know the exact nature of the charges against me.
I demand to know point by point, word by word, sentence by sentence, document by document, reference by reference, exactly what you object to in every single one of the sentences quoted against me as well as in any other sentence which may be quoted against me, so that I can know exactly what is being alleged against me in order to enable me to prepare my defence.
I demand to be supplied with all documents, evidence, and a list of all witnesses upon which/whom you intend to rely in proving your case.
I demand a continuance of the trial date so that I can study German law. I do not speak correct German.
I demand to know how to appeal your decision to deny me a lawyer.
I demand to be supplied with any and all exculpatory evidence in your possession.
I refuse to accept any burden of proof in this matter whatsoever. The burden of proof is on you, not me.
I am not familiar with the legal systems of Third World dictatorships.
Faithfully, Carlos Whitlock PorterThought for the Day:
"There are many definitions of 'the enemy'. Traditionally, the enemy is a people that makes war against you. But today's wars are not always armed conflicts. They can be cultural wars or economic wars, which are conducted by people who say they are your friends."
