Judge Nap's rousing defense of Tyranny Fighter Julian Heicklen

Julian Heicklen was indicted on a bogus charge of "jury tampering" in 2011 for the act of standing on a public sidewalk in front of the federal courthouse in Manhattan and handing jury nullification information to randomly passing citizens.


When Judge Andrew Napolitano heard about this he vigorously defended Julian on his Fox News Freedom Watch show with statements like "This act is protected by the First Amendment to the Constitution" and "This charge is a farce!"

Now you can get the full story on that and much, much more from a new book that details the American legal establishment's attempts to force Julian and his supporters to shut up and go away.

Book review NOT about Tyranny Fighters

Is there really "no such thing as bad publicity?" I knew what to expect when I asked Glenn Conley to review Tyranny Fighters: Profoundly repulsive profanity. That's because, true to form, Glenn Conley's review was not about Tyranny Fighters; all of Glenn Conley's reviews are always about Glenn Conley.

WARNING: If you have a weak stomach hold your nose and keep your eyes firmly closed while reading Conley's venomously vulgar "reviews." You've been warned.

The crude-lewd-rude review caricature that he consciously created for himself is just an attention-getting gimmick. I skimmed his book Glenn Hates Books and every one of his over 100 "reviews" are nothing more than jumping-off points to display his grotesquely nasty profanity, like a peacock flaunting its tail feathers.

So I did him the favor of writing my own review of him for Libertarian News Examiner. All of this is explained in "Glenn Hates Books: Reviewing the vulgo reviewer" (including the word "vulgo" if you follow the link in the article.)


When I asked Conley to review Tyranny Fighters I was hoping beyond hope to uncover a smidgen of intellectual depth from him. But not a chance. He won't step out of his XXX Adult Video Store character in public. So you'll learn nothing about my book from him. You'll have to do that on your own.

Free Tyranny Fighters excerpt on Goodreads

This is another free excerpt from Tyranny Fighters: The Julian Heicklen Chronicles, this time posted on the Goodreads Group appropriately named Book Excerpts.

This isn't the same excerpt that previously appeared on BookDaily's Tyranny Fighters page.


This excerpt is from Chapter 3 which graphically describes one of Julian's earliest illegal arrests and transport to a psychiatric ward of a New York hospital for having committed the "crime" of actually attempting to exercise his First Amendment right of Freedom of Association by standing on a public sidewalk and his Freedom of Speech by distributing literature to others who voluntarily chose to accept it.

The full FREE excerpt is here:

Have you met the Tyranny Fighter Julian Heicklen?

This is one of Julian's earliest known video interviews, recorded by a supporter called "bile" on September 11, 2009 during Julian's fourth trip to the federal courthouse in Manhattan where he was illegally prevented from distributing Fully Informed Jury Association pamphlets to citizens on public property.

 

Now you can read his full story, how he began, how he inspired a thousand-strong following called Tyranny Fighters, how he and many of them were confronted, harassed, heckled, abused, arrested and jailed for committing the "crime" of exercising their First Amendment rights on public property.

Even the interviewer "bile" himself was later prevented from recording, had the video card from his camera illegally seized, and sued the Department of Homeland Security with ACLU assistance.

Buy the book and read the whole story here:

A new book, TYRANNY FIGHTERS: THE JULIAN HEICKLEN CHRONICLES documents the story of one man with a simple purpose – to inform people that juries have the right to nullify bad laws and protect their fellow citizens from corrupt governments.



Read the book description and sample chapter at BookDaily's Tyranny Fighters page. (http://tinyurl.com/ooc2vy3)

The legal and judicial establishments treated him as a criminal and tried to shut him up by harassing, hounding, threatening, abusing, arresting and jailing him.

Now you can read the full story of how he inspired over 1,000 Tyranny Fighters to support his cause – and how many of them also braved legal and judicial abuses themselves – to help educate the public about their rights.

TYRANNY FIGHTERS BOOK NOW AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE

This is a book that had to be written, about a story that had to be told.

Tyranny Fighters: The Julian Heicklen Chronicles


Now it's available through worldwide distribution for purchase or download in paperback, eBook, Kindle and iTunes at online booksellers like Amazon, Barnes&Noble, Goodreads and Lulu.


From age 77 until he turned 80 veteran rights activist Julian Heicklen was confronted, harassed, attacked, arrested and jailed by the very law enforcers and justice officials charged with protecting his rights. On more than one occasion he was injected with dangerous antipsychotic drugs, all because he refused to be complicit in his own illegal arrests.

His "crime" was giving jury rights pamphlets to fellow American citizens who voluntarily chose to accept them while both were standing peacefully on public sidewalks in front of America's public courthouses.

Over the years he was joined by a thousand-strong group of supporters who came to be known as Tyranny Fighters, freedom-loving men and women who assisted him in whatever capacity they could; helping distribute brochures, video recording, photographing, witnessing, reporting, publicizing, interviewing, advocating and aiding in his legal battles.

Many of these Tyranny Fighters themselves became victims of the establishment's confrontations, threats, harassments, attacks, arrests and prosecutions.

In my own role as a Tyranny Fighter I served as a reporter, writer, opinionizer, publicist and advocate with my online column The Libertarian News Examiner. From the beginning of Julian's activism and the rise of the Tyranny Fighters I wrote and posted some 70 news and commentary articles in their support.

Now I've collected it all in a single volume under the title Tyranny Fighters: The Julian Heicklen Chronicles. All of the original articles are here, amplified with additional introductory notes and by never before published background material from activist emails, and further supplemented with reader comments, social media commentaries and mainstream news sources.

The book tells the story as it happened, from beginning to end, article by article, dateline by dateline, blow by blow, the setbacks and successes and even the infighting, the coming together of the libertarian community in overwhelming support of the jailed activists with demonstrations and protests and marches and call floods and freedom pages on social media sites.

More than just a riveting chronicle of real world conflict and confrontation in the name of freedom this book celebrates the courage and inspiration of Julian Heicklen and applauds the contributions of all those who proudly took up the mantle of Tyranny Fighter.
