I, MichaelAnthony Fullilove now known as: Marshawn Shiloh Wijaya Sha'ul me'el c/o 3916 N
Florissant St.Louis Missoun do solemnly declare in accord with: the 1931 statute of Westmrnster
(hrtp://wwvr.cietaxcaniia.ore/),1118Aiticles of confederation and perpetual Union Anicles XI, 1812
Treary of Ghent; 1794 Jay Treaty; 1836 Treaty of Marrakesh (Morocco) all recognized and valid
treaties, constitution for the united states of America, the 1948 Charter of the United Nations, the
1975 Inter-American Declaration on the rights of Indigenous Peoples and the United Nations 2nd
decade of the world's Indigenous people, that upon discovering that the registration of a Live Birth
of February -5'h 1976, in the STATE OF MISSOURIA4ISSOURI REPUBLIC called Missouri
Republic was a contract between my mother and the U.S. Government Corporation who did not tell
her she was selling me, a flesh and blood child. to the STATE OF MISSOURI CORPORATION as
the Chattel Property/Slave which is a violation of Human Rights, I hereby void the contract, ab
initio for fraud. Since I am a Flesh And Biood: Melaninite Cherokee Native American Moor of
Turlle lsland and of this Planet in accord with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of
Indrgenous Peoples, HJR 194- http:/i govtrack.irs/congress/Lrilis/ I l0/hrcr l-2llfqll - U.S Congress

Defense Appropriations Act) http://rvwu,.eovtrack.us./congress/bills/ll l/hr3326/text .. Upon
discovering that Elizabeth Alexandra Mary Windsor Mountbatten Battenberg [MISNOMER: Queen
Elizabeth III violated her coronation oath ( a legally binding contract) of June 2'd 1953. On May 14,
2011 at Southward Crown Courr (1 English Grounds in Southward, London, England) Defendant:
John Anthony Hill in the United Kingdom proved befbre an English jury that Elizabeth Alexandra
Mary Windsor-Mountbatten, was not the rightful monarch and never was: queen! Elizabeth is not
the rightful monarch and never was. This was a two point argument. Firstly, Elizabeth knew- then
and now- that she was crowned on a fake coronation stone instead of the real Stone of
Destiny/Coronation Stone, which meant not only was she never properly crowned, but she
knowingly and fraudulently was conning the Public and that is why she did not want her coronation
televised. REGINA v.JAH (case Ref. Number:T20107746) ( See
h{p://r u,'rv. rrtrial.org/ltpde/ I 33). I declare that the name MICHAEL ANTHONY FULLILOVE
on the registration of the Live birth is a corporation and Michael Anthony Fullilove, is an
Indigenous, Flesh & Blood Man. I am Not a corporation, artificial person, natural person, fictitious
entity or vessel of the United States as defined under 18 U.S.C.9 and I give notice lnternationally,
Domestically and Universally via this Declaration that I deny corporate existence. Under
reservation of All My Rights Unalienable and otherwise. I am: Indigenous/Autochthon of this
planet. And i make this solemn declaration conscientiously believing it to be true, and knowing that
this is the same force and effect as made under oath.

Atthough Latin American church leaders have issued apologies in the past, this
one n ent further and \A'as much more targeted, the.'s:r1..,,:ll l'.'r: f : :r.,. reported.
Previous apologies had not been directed at Indigenous Peoples ofthe Americas,
AP said.
The Catholic Church was one of many Christian denominations that ran boarding
schoois in Canada ard the U.S. designed to "kill the Indian in the child" by taking
kids from their farnilies, cutting them off from their culture and educating them in
the wa1,s of the European-minded settlers. The Canadian Truth and
Reconciliation Commission on June 2 came out rr-ith a report calling such
practices "cultural genocide" and recornmending that Prime Minister Stephen
Harper ask the Pope for an apologv. Th.ough Harper met u-ith Pope Francis and
mentioned the report, he did not specifically request the apology, and the Pontiffs
words in Bolivia did not reference the TRC document.

they are committing "a grave sin," AP said.

MESSAGE OF HIS HOUNESS

POPE FRANCIS
FOR THE CELEBMTION OF THE

WORLD DAY OF PEACE

1 JANUARY 2015

NO LONGER S|AVE+ BUT BROTHERSAND STSTERS

the beginning of this New Year, which we welcome as God's gracious gift
to all humanity, I offer heartfelt wishes of peace to every man and woman, to
all the wodd's peoples and nations, to heads of state and govemment, and to
religious leaders. In doing so, I pray for an end to wars, conflicts and the great
suffering caused by human agency, by epidemics past and present and by the
devastation wrought by natural disasterc. I pray especially that, on the basis of
our common calling to cooperate with God and all people of good will for the
advancement of harmony and peace in the world, we may resist the temptation
to act in a manner unworthy of our humanity.
1. At

In my Message for Peace last year, I spoke of "the desire for a full life... which
includes a longing for fratemity which draws us to fellowship with others and
enables us to see them not as enemies or rivals, but as brothers and sisters to
be accepted and embraced".[1] Since we are by nature relational beings, meant
to find fulfilment through interpersonal relationships inspired by justice and love,
it is fundamental for our human development that our dignity, freedom and
autonomy be acknowledged and respected. Tragically, the growing scourge of
man's exploitation by man gravely damages the life of communion and our
calling to forge interpersonal relations marked by respect, justice and lov,e. This
abominable phenomenon, which leads to contempt for the fundamental rights of
others and to the suppression of their freedom and dignity, takes many forms. I
would like briefly to consider these, so that, in the light of God's word, we can
consider all men and women "no longer slaves, but brothers and sisters".
Listening to God's plan for humanity
2. The theme I have chosen for this year's message is drawn from Saint Paul's
Ietter to Philemon, in which the Apostle asks his co-worker to welcome
Onesimus, formerly Philemon's slave, now a Christian and, therefore, according
to Paul, worthy of being considered a brother'. The Assstle of the Gerrtiies
writes: "Perhaps this is why he was parted from you for a while, thal y'ou rnight

have him back for ever, no longer as a slave but more tharr a slava as a

N CI{IN4INAL N,IATTERS

our times, the conmon good is increasingly threatened by transnational organized critne, the improper
use of the rlarkets and of the economy, as rvell as by tenoristl.
11

It is therefore necessary for the intemational community to adopt adequate legai instrutnents to prevent
ancl counter criminal activities, by plomoting intemational judicial cooperation on criminal matters.
In ratifying numerous intemational conl,entions in these areas, and acting also on behalf of Vatican City
State, the Holy See has constantly maintained that sr-rch agreetnents are effectiYe means to prevent
criminal actir,ities that threaten human dignity, the common good and peace'

\Vith a vreu, to renerving the Apostolic See's commitment to cooperate to these ends, by means of this
Apostolic Letter issued llotu Prr-tprio,I establish that:
1. The competent Judicial

Authorities of Vatican City State shal1 also exercise penal jr.rrisdiction over:

a) crirnes committed against the security, the fundamental interests or the patrimony of the

Holy

See;

b) crirnes refened to:

- in Vaticair City State Law No. VIII, of
Nornts on Crininal Law Matters;

the Critninal Code and the Critninal Procedttre Code;

u/hen such crimes are committed by the persons refered to in paragraph

below, rn the exercise of their functions;

c) any other crime whose prosecution is required by an intemational agreement ratified by

the Holy See, if the peryetrator is physically present in the tenitory of Vatican City State and

2. The crirnes refened to in paragraph i are to be judged pursuant to the criminal law in force in Vatican
City State at the tir-ne of their commission, u,ithout prejudice to the general principles of the iegal systern
on the temporal application of critninal 1arvs.
3. For the purposes olVatican cnminal larv, the follorving persons are deemed "public

fficials":

a) members, officials and personr-re1 of the various organs of the Roman Curia and of the
Institutions connected to it.

c) those persons u,ho serrre as representatives, managers or directors, as u,ell as persons rvho
even cle facto manage or exercise control over the entities directly dependent on the I{oly

Vatican City State;
d) any other person holding an administrative or judiciai tnandate in the Holy See,
peruanent or temporary, paid or unpaid, irespective of that person's seniority.
4. The jr-irisdiction referred to in paragraph 1 comprises aiso the administrative liability of juridical
persons arising fiom crimes. as regulated by Vatican Cit-v State larvs.

colrcurrent jurisdiction shall apply.
6. The content of arlicle 23 of Larv No. CXIX of 21 November 1981, rvhich approves the Judicial Order
o-f l/atican Ci4, State remains in force.

This I decide and establish, anything to the contrary notu,ithstanding.

L'Osservatore Romano, entering into force ou 1 Septernber 2013.
Given in Rome, at the Apostolic Palace, on

ll
