From the January 2009 Idaho Observer:
No answers, no taxes: Founding concept with contemporary application Safety engineer, 9/11 truth activist and concert violinist Don Meserlian of
North Caldwell, New Jersey(pictured above),has submitted government evidence
disproving the government’s explanation for the Twin Towers and Building 7 collapses
on 9/11 to his mayor and city council. After claiming to have received the information,
city officials have thus far refused to publicly proclaim that the government’s
evidence warrants a new 9/11 investigation. Meserlian’s response has been to
place his property taxes into an escrow account until they sign a proclamation
or supply him with a letter describing a valid reason why they will not. Just
as committees of safety are forming all over the nation today (see above)
have roots dating back to the founding of our nation, the tactic of withholding
taxes until government responds appropriately to petitions for redress of grievances
is also rooted in our nation’s founding era. Following is the letter Meserlian
sent to officials in his town. Meserlian, 80, is encouraging everyone who believes
a new investigation into 9/11 must be conducted to supply their elected officials
with the evidence and a copy of the proclamation. If they refuse to proclaim
their support for 9/11 truth, Meserlian is also encouraging people to say, "No
answers, no taxes" and place property taxes in escrow until their respectfully-submitted
grievance is redressed. To Richard Mondelli, Chief Financial Officer, North Caldwell, N.J. &
Joe Kunz, N. Caldwell Administrator: I have placed my Feb 1, 2009 property
tax in an escrow account that will be paid to N. Caldwell when the following
terms of the account are met. 1. All officials will return phone calls and discuss any citizen’s concerns.
2. The Administrator will not refuse to present any documents addressed to
the Mayor and Council based on his unauthorized personal opinion. 3. All town officials who take the "Oath of Office" "to uphold
and defend the U.S. Constitution," including the Police Chief and Administrator,
will enforce the 1st amendment right to petition and their "obligation
to respond". 4. The "9/11 Truth Proclamation", that I petitioned the mayor and
council to sign, will either be signed or a valid written reason provided for
not signing. Note: Since the Proclamation is based on the U.S. government’s seismic
and FAA evidence, that basement explosions occurred before the planes struck
the twin towers, the mayor and council must prove that the government’s evidence
is in error or sign the Proclamation. The above terms must be met in order that you receive my property tax on the
due date. I will not pay any interest charges if the terms are met after the
due date. My personal attempts at nonviolent civil disobedience, based on taxation without
representation and your violation of your oath of office will be broadcast on
radio and in print. This is a test as to whether a citizen’s constitutional
rights must be enforced by anyone who takes the "Oath of Office."
Failure to do so is a betrayal of their sworn oath of office and they are subject
to prosecution for the minimum crime of perjury, a felony, or the more serious
crime of treason. "Don’t Tread on Me"..... Donald Meserlian, P.E., National Leader Citizen’s Campaign for 2009 Year of 9/11 Truth The 9/11 Truth Proclamation and instruction on how to proceed can be found
