Finding the Love in the Law

love-and-law

by Kevin Ferry

Obtaining a maximum justice verdict is possible in any case, from soft tissue injury or mental anguish only cases. The result will depend on the vibrational energy created during the trial which points to Love. Yes folks, take it from someone who thought the best trial lawyers were half crazed wolves looking to battle every second. 35 years later when I approach a case, I am feeling my way through the facts, legal principles, the cast of characters involved in the case and the judicial system that provides the opportunity to tell the human story of pain, struggle, and hope. I am trying to touch universal truths that resonate with love and compassion.

The court system in Connecticut, where I try cases, is understaffed, overwhelmed and short on patience. In a recent case involving a 19-year-old passenger of a car driven at a speed of up to 100mph, which slammed into a large shag bark hickory tree and went up in flames, the trial judge told us during jury selection we would be limited to 3 damages witnesses. We had ten ready to surround our client in a blanket of love by pitching in to tell different pieces of her story. It took time and patience to slowly convince The Judge to drop the wall he created. After two days of trial, The Judge recognized we had a “big case” as he described it, and we never heard another word about limiting damages witnesses.

The Defense bar is a step slow and lagging behind in trying to tell its story in a human way that points to love, and we hope to stay just out of their reach as we put things back in balance, one compelling human story of pain, loss, and hope, at a time.

Suing your insurance carrier

suing-insurance-companies

What does it mean to sue your own insurance carrier? We all know in basic terms what it means, namely to bring a lawsuit against your insurance carrier, but what is the significance of it? There is a lot of apprehension surrounding this notion… including “Will my carrier drop me?” “Will they raise my rates?” The bottom line is you pay for insurance each year providing the insurance carrier with hundreds if not often thousands of your own dollars that they hold onto for the “in case” situation. They collect it, saying it is for “your benefit” but then punish you if you want to use it? Doesn’t it make sense to take some of that back? Especially when you are injured due to no fault of your own and need it? It is no different than paying for health insurance and then not using it when you go to the doctor/hospital. No one would do that! We should not be afraid to use motor vehicle insurance in the same way. 

Ferrylaw is a firm that is not afraid to go after the big corporations to see that you get something back for the insurance policies you have paid into for all of these years. When these corporations continue to hold onto your money without paying what you are owed, this can be considered bad faith on their part. What is bad faith? In the context of an uninsured/underinsured motorist claim – either where the driver who is responsible for the accident does not have insurance (uninsured) or is not adequately insured (underinsured), your carrier has a duty of good faith and fair dealing. What is that? It means they owe you an obligation to review your claim in a timely and effective manner and pay you what is justly owed to you. It is a greater duty than what they would owe if you were merely someone bringing a claim against one of their drivers. When you are insured by these big insurance companies, they must treat you “special” and when they fail to do so, this can be considered bad faith. 

Insurance companies holding onto your money

We recently handled a case against one of the largest insurance carriers out there, Geico, and took the claim all the way to trial where our client was given a verdict of $2.2 million dollars – over 25 times the carrier’s last offer at $79,000.00. It took Geico over two years to offer our client $79,000.00 only to be told by a sensible group of people (a jury of her peers) that her harms and losses were worth more than 25 times this amount. Given this fact and Geico’s failure to offer a reasonable amount, we brought a bad faith claim that is now up on appeal. Insurance companies should not and cannot be allowed to hold onto our money to their benefit and our detriment. Our client was forced to endure the long and painstaking journey of going all the way to and through a trial only to be told what we knew all along, that her claim was worth well in excess of what Geico was willing to pay her (their own insured). Now that is bad faith at its finest.  Imagine if our client was too afraid to go after her own carrier or tried to handle it on her own. She would be left a fraction of what she was entitled to. Unfortunately, her policy was capped at the $79,000 which Geico finally offered at trial. However, without taking them all the way to the courthouse steps, she would not have obtained anywhere close to that. Their last offer prior to trial was less than half the policy limits.  It is important to hold these companies accountable, particularly where it is your own carrier committing these bad acts. 

Trucking Regulations in Connecticut Overview

Semi truck on side of road in CT

Trucks Laws in CT – Are truck drivers following the rules?

Trucking regulations in Connecticut are rules and requirements specific to the Constitution state that govern the operation of trucks on its roads. These regulations are designed to ensure safety, protect the environment, and maintain the quality of Connecticut’s transportation infrastructure. Here are some key points about trucking regulations in Connecticut:

  1. Commercial Driver’s License (CDL): Similar to the nationwide requirement, truck drivers in Connecticut must obtain a CDL to operate commercial vehicles. This license ensures that drivers have the necessary skills and knowledge to safely drive large trucks.
  2. Weight and Size Limits: Connecticut has specific weight and size restrictions for trucks to protect its roads and bridges. These limits determine the maximum weight a truck can carry and the dimensions it must adhere to. Violations can result in fines and penalties.
  3. Hours of Service (HOS): Connecticut follows the federal HOS regulations that limit the number of hours a truck driver can be on duty and driving. These rules are in place to prevent driver fatigue and maintain road safety. Drivers must take regular breaks and have mandatory rest periods.
  4. Special Permits: Oversized or overweight trucks may require special permits to operate in Connecticut. These permits are issued for loads that exceed the standard weight or size limits. They ensure that the transportation of these loads is done safely and without causing damage to infrastructure.
  5. Vehicle Inspections: Trucks in Connecticut undergo regular inspections to ensure they meet safety standards. Inspections cover areas such as brakes, tires, lights, and cargo securement. Violations can lead to fines or the truck being taken out of service until the issues are addressed.
  6. Environmental Regulations: Connecticut has environmental regulations in place to reduce truck emissions and promote cleaner transportation. These regulations include requirements for emission control systems and the use of cleaner fuels to minimize air pollution.
  7. Hazardous Materials: The transportation of hazardous materials in Connecticut is subject to specific regulations to ensure the safety of the public and the environment. These regulations govern the handling, labeling, and transportation of dangerous substances.

It’s important for truck drivers and trucking companies operating in Connecticut to be aware of and comply with these regulations. Failing to do so could result in severe injuries and death. These regulations help maintain safety on the roads, protect the environment, and ensure the efficient movement of goods throughout the state.

Ferry Law is thoroughly trained in investigating and analyzing whether the truck driver and the companies they are driving for were following these regulations after a wreck. We work with the nation’s top experts in the field to forensically evaluate each truck crash case we handle. Frequently we find evidence and involved parties that even the Police miss. Understanding the regulations that apply to commercial drivers and the companies they drive for can better inform victims of what went wrong and what decisions were made to put that truck on the road if they or a loved one get hurt in a wreck involving a truck.

Contact us today if you have been involved in a truck wreck or truck-related accident.

DOCKET NO: UWYCV195030819S
DOE, JAMES
V.
BEMER, BRUCE, J
SUPERIOR COURT
JUDICIAL DISTRICT OF WATERBURY
AT WATERBURY
12/16/2022
ORDER

The following order is entered in the above matter:

ORDER:

“The hearing in probable cause of the issuance of a prejudgment remedy is not contemplated to be a full
scale trial on the merits of the plaintiff’s claim. The plaintiff does not have to establish that he will
prevail, only that there is probable cause to sustain the validity of the claim … The court’s role in such a
hearing is to determine probable success by weighing probabilities.” Canty v. Otto, 304 Conn. 546,565,
41 A.3d 280 (2012). Moreover, this weighing process applies to both the legal and factual issues… It is
the trial court that must determine, in light of its assessment of the legal issues and the credibility of the
witnesses, whether the plaintiff has sustained the burden of showing probable cause to sustain the
validity of its claim…” Blakeslee Arpaia Chapman, Inc. v El Constructors, Inc. 32 Conn App., 118,126,
628 A.2d 601(1993). The court is vested with broad discretion when making its determination of
probable cause. Canty v. Otto, supra, 304 Conn. 565.

“Proof of probable cause as a condition of obtaining a prejudgment remedy is not as demanding as proof
by a fair preponderance of the evidence.” Ledgebrook Condominium Assn., Inc. v. Lusk Corp., 172
Conn. 577, 584, 376 A.2d 60 (1977). “Probable cause is a flexible common sense standard. It does not
demand that a belief be correct or more likely true than false.” New England Land Co., Ltd. v.
DeMarkey, 213 Conn. 612, 620, 569 A.2d 1098 (1990).

“Section 52-278d(a) explicitly requires that a trial court’s determination of probable cause in granting a
prejudgment remedy include the court’s ‘taking into account any defenses, counterclaims or [setoffs] …’”
(Emphasis omitted.) TES Franchising, LLC v. Feldman, 286 Conn. 132, 141, 943 A.2d 406 (2008).
Since a prejudgment remedy hearing is not contemplated to be a full scale trial on the merits, the
evidence presented at such a hearing will not be as well developed as it would be at trial. State v. Bacon
Construction Co., 300 Conn. 471, 484, 15 A.3d 147 (2011) (quoting TES Franchising, supra, 286 Conn.
143).

The court, having considered all the evidence including the testimony of witnesses and full exhibits,
finds that probable cause exists to sustain the validity of the plaintiff’s claims, and further, that the
plaintiff will prevail on all three counts of the operative complaint. The court found the testimony of the
witnesses called by the plaintiff to be believable, and found particularly compelling the testimony of the
plaintiff, an extremely credible witness. The court finds that the heinous nature of the defendant’s
misconduct had a devastating impact on the life of the plaintiff, who sustained substantial injuries,
including severe emotional distress, emotional struggles including but not limited to anger and
relationship issues, and alcohol abuse, all as a result of the defendant’s misconduct. The court further
finds that the plaintiff, who had been an honor student prior to the defendant’s exploitation and abuse of
the plaintiff, was unable to continue his education, suffered a loss of life enjoyment, and sustained a loss
of earning capacity as a result of the misconduct.Accordingly, in light of the reprehensible misconduct
of the defendant and the severity of the plaintiff’s injuries and damages, there is probable cause to
sustain the validity of the plaintiff’s claims. As such, in order to secure the judgment, the application for
UWYCV195030819S 12/16/2022 Page 1 of 2 a pre-judgment remedy is granted, in the amount of $3,500,000.00.

Free Speech Provides the Ability To Identify and Arrest Government Atrocities

CHC-deplatformed

On Wednesday, Aug. 17, without warning, Facebook informed Children’s Health Defense (CHD) that their page was deplatformed (unpublished). Simultaneously, their Instagram account was deplatformed (suspended). Each of these platforms had hundreds of thousands of followers. Collectively, more than half a million followers have been denied access to truthful information. They received the following notifications from both platforms:

Fighting Big Tech + Big Pharma

Despite not posting content on Facebook for the past 21 days due to an existing 30-day ban, and constantly self-censoring their content in an attempt to avoid continual shadow-banning and censorship, both pages were abruptly deplatformed. Removing CHD accounts is evidence of a clearly orchestrated attempt to stop the impact they have during a time of heightened criticism of our public health institutions.

Deplatforming by the tech giants came days after the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) quietly walked back many of their previous COVID-19 policies that CHD has criticized since the beginning of the pandemic. Within hours of CHD deplatforming, CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky shared her plans for overhauling how the agency works while admitting to a flawed response to the COVID-19 and pandemic missteps.

There’s no clear indication of why Facebook and Instagram chose to deplatform the CHD at this time, but the timing dovetails with our ongoing censorship lawsuit against Facebook. CHD filed a lawsuit against Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, in August, 2020. Recently, in its Ninth Circuit Court appeal filed on July 29, CHD provided the court with CDC-produced documents the agency shared with Facebook. These documents, provided to Facebook on a regular basis, contained what the CDC considered misinformation. Titled “COVID Vaccine Misinformation: Hot Topics,” the CDC documents asked tech giants to “be on the lookout” (BOLO) for various topics they consider to be misinformation including: COVID-19 vaccine shedding, VAERS reports, spike protein data and more. The CHD case is currently pending in a Ninth Circuit decision.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said:

“Facebook is acting here as a surrogate for the Federal government’s crusade to silence all criticism of draconian government policies. Our constitutional framers recognized this peril of government censorship. We don’t need a First Amendment to protect popular or government approved speech. They incorporated the First Amendment specifically to protect free expression of dissenting opinions. They understood that a government that can silence its critics has license for every atrocity.”

Roger Teich, CHD legal counsel for the Meta lawsuit, added, “Censorship is not only unconstitutional, it’s un-American.”

Big Tech Wants the CHD Silenced … Don’t Let Them Stop Them!

Despite attempts to censor CHD, they will continue their important mission. Many people only followed them on these large social media platforms so it is important to let them know they have been deplatformed. Please share all or parts of this email with your friends and family so they can sign up for the free newsletter, “the Defender,” and watch the censorship-free shows streaming live daily on CHD.TV. Right now, email is the most reliable way to stay in touch.

If You Followed CHD on Facebook and Instagram, You Can Find CHD’s Same Great Content on Other Social Media Channels

Why the Jury System is so Important

($2,900.00 to $25,000) and ($20,000.00 to over $2 million)

Only a jury has the power to set the price for the value of human life or the things taken from a life of health and happiness. The jury decides how much a human should be paid for the terrible job of being in pain and having our joyful activities taken from us. If the value of human life were set by corporations, who often use computers to evaluate claims, we would all be devalued substantially.

A client with musculoskeletal pain following a motor vehicle accident was initially offered $2,900.00 to settle her case. Ferry Law filed suit and the offer was increased to $6,500.00. A year later, the offer went to $10,000.00. When we approached the trial date (inside 90 days) Ferry Law demanded the insurance company question the client in a deposition or the matter would go to trial without regard for the $25,000.00 insurance policy limit carried by the at-fault driver. Once the deposition concluded with the insurance adjuster watching, Ferry Law told the insurance company to pay the $25,000.00 policy or the matter would be put to the jury. The release for $25,000.00 settling the case was delivered the next day. $2900.00 to $25,000.00 because the insurance company knew that a jury would care about the woman’s injuries far more than it did.

A more dramatic account of how corporations dismiss pain and loss of life’s enjoyment is our recent New Britain verdict in Bouazza v. Geico. The Insurance company filed an official offer to settle for $20,000.00. The jury who heard about the women’s pain, anxiety, inability to sleep, loss of ability to pursue her gifts in life decided the value of what had been taken from our client was $2,262,000.00. This is our 3rd verdict since 2016 over 1 million in The New Britain Superior Court and still the judges tell us that New Britain juries do not provide fair verdicts. We will keep doing our part to prove the judges wrong.

The jury system is the last stand against corporate domination and control! We the people have the right to the pursuit of happiness and the inviolate right to a trial by a jury of our peers!

Dr. Robert Malone: CDC Got Caught Hiding Data, Vaccination Might Increase Risk of Omicron Infection

While in Florida, The Epoch Times sat down with Dr. Robert Malone—who is a vaccine expert, and holds several patents to the original mRNA technology—and discussed how the CDC recently got caught hiding critical vaccine data, how getting the COVID-19 vaccine might actually increase the risk of Omicron infection, as well as the concept of “mass formation psychosis.”

Renowned  Scientist issues Dire Warning about Covid Vaccine in children

group of monkeys

by Robert W. Malone MD, MS

My wife, Jill used to work at the San Diego Zoo and Wild Animal Park for the research unit called CRES (The Center for Research on Endangered Species) in the late 1980s. She did primary behavior research on mother-infant dyads, both as an intern and later as an employee. In particular, she was involved in behavioral studies involving Lion-tailed macaques, which are an endangered species of monkey from India. The purpose of the research was to find ways to increase the emotional well being of the animals, as some of these monkeys have significant issues breeding in captivity.

There was one mother named Polly and her infant daughter Dewa which were particularly interesting. Polly would let her infant girl nurse for a while and when she was tired of it, she would pull her off her nipple and literally hold Dewa’s head to the concrete floor for about 30 seconds. Dewa would scream and chitter – with her little arms and legs flaying around. Then Polly would suddenly let her go and the infant would run screaming away from her. It was horrifying to watch.

Jill observed this pair through infancy. She continued to observe as Dewa grew up and had an infant son of her own. One day, when the little boy monkey was quite small, Dewa got tired of the baby nursing. She literally pulled him off and held him firmly to the ground as he squirmed and screamed- just as her mother had done to her.

The effects of abuse, neglect and harms done to children can and will pass through generations. Often, these long-term effects on the person are unknown until the person is grown up and has children of their own.

Our children are our future. They must be protected from heavy handed, ineffective policies that marginally protect adults over the well being of our more precious asset. Our children. Let me write it again for emphasis… our children are our future.

I have written and spoken out about vaccine mandates for children and why they are wrong. Children are rarely at risk of severe disease from COVID-19/SARS-CoV-2 and almost all deaths of children have been those with co-morbidities. The vaccines have a high adverse event profile in children that has not been fully analyzed. This is reason enough to not allow mandates, even State government or regional school board mandates. But I have not written as much about masks, school closures, and the selfishness of teacher’s unions, who are more interested in protecting themselves than children.

Children are at very little risk from COVID-19 severe disease. Most kids in the USA now have natural immunity, many have been vaccinated, and Omicron is nothing more than a cold for the vast majority of children and adults. Even during Delta, children rarely develop severe COVID-19 disease. They have strong, healthy immune systems. This disease is stratified by age and co-morbidities. We all know this by now. Furthermore, neither masks nor vaccines prevent infection, replication or transmission of the Omicron strain of SARS-CoV-2.

There is no reason to mask children in schools. There is no reason to mask children in shops, restaurants, parks, after school program, etc. There is no reason for children to have plexiglass shields around them in the class room. There is no reason why we need to deny children exercise programs, sports, after school care and physical education. It is time to end social distancing programs and let kids be kids. Children are social beings. Having normal social interactions with other people, with other children is critical to growing up in a healthy environment. Social isolation of children is not ok. Sports, after school program, childcare, recreational activities and extracurricular activities need to return to normalcy.

One important way children learn is by mimicry. Facial expressions of friends, teachers, mentors, parents not only are important for speech development, they are important for children to learn emotional norms and behaviors. We do not know what damage we are doing by masking. At this point, long term effects are unknown.

Furthermore, the COVID-19 unvaccinated children must be treated no differently than any other child. It is not anyone’s business other than the parent’s whether a child is vaccinated for COVID-19 or not. American’s have a fundamental right to privacy and there is no exclusionary clause for people younger than a certain age. Unvaccinated children or unmasked children should not be segregated, shamed or put in special rooms. They should not be excluded from the playground or sports activities. Society, our government, is doing an unprecedented and known amount of damage to the healthy development of our children. This has to stop.

COVID-19 testing of our school children needs to end. Not only is it a medical procedure that is being forced upon children, often without their permission, it is not needed. It is uncomfortable and more than that, it is a violation of their bodies. This is particularly true when schools and other social institutions are forcing this test upon children because of their vaccination status.

As the Biden administration doubles down on masks, testing and vaccines for children, people are waking up. The democrats are creating an army of new republicans and independent families, who are currently and will be voting in the future at the midterms.

That’s a 14-percentage point swing from a nine-point Democratic advantage to a five-point GOP edge, and among the largest advantages the GOP has ever held in Gallup polling.

As we travel around the country, speaking a conferences, churches, summits and rallies, we hear from parents over and over again phrases like this.

“I used to be a democrat, but now I don’t think I will ever be able to vote for a democrat again.”

“ I don’t know what I am anymore.”

“I am questioning everything I use to believe about the democratic party”

The science is very clear on our children. The data is clear. Children need to be allowed to have normal childhoods. Our parents who are paying attention know this.

Our children are our most precious assets.

If you doubt what I am saying, then Listen to their stories.

And then listen to what a pediatric cardiologist and a pediatric psychiatrist have to say about this.

What we are doing is wrong. It must stop. Now. The damage already done will last for decades.

Open Letter About Democracy and Mindfulness

Kevin-Ferry-at-mandate-march-DC

by Kevin Ferry

The powerful entities who control the media are afraid of one thing. People coming together. The Defeat the Mandates protest in D.C. was a coming together that has these folks concerned. The efforts to divide and conquer are so blatant now that even Government is publicly calling for censorship. The acting United States Surgeon General has called for Joe Rogan’s podcast to be censored. Rogan interviews some of the brave doctors and scientist who have been analyzing data and peer reviewed articles from around the world and disseminating the painful failures of government health policies. With 11 million registered to listen to Joe Rogan disseminate scientifically valid information, more than double the numbers watching CNN, the reason couldn’t be clearer. This call for shutting down speech should be frightening the hell out of the group that have the most fire power, the lawyers. Regardless of who you believe, this should frighten all of us and catapult us into action. Immediate, peaceful action.

  Democracy is under attack.  With no due process, a million businesses were shut down when the pandemic first arrived.  With no due process or legislative action or amendment to our constitution our right to assemble, right to our religious freedom, and guaranteed right to jury trial have been subverted.   This may be the biggest test of our Democratic way of life and the strength of our Constitution our Country has every encountered.   The amount of fear being peddled by the media narrative dictating by Corporate and Governmental interest, is causing confusion, poor decision making and assaulting our populations already tenuous state of mental and physical well-being.   Insurance industry statistics reveal an unexplained 40% increase in all mortality deaths since the pandemic in working aged people.   Our children are suffering up to a 20 point decrease in Intelligence Quotient testing because of isolation and mask wearing and fear.   Worse, young children are committing suicide and turning to intoxicants.     The long-term consequences of any policy driven by fear is beyond comprehension for most.  

     Last weekend in Washington D.C., approximately 20 to 30 thousand people gathered peacefully at the steps of the Lincoln memorial to protest the mandates and to protest the corporatization of medicine.    Doctors from all over the country spoke about the stifling impact of corporate dictates that prevent Doctors from being Doctors.   Jew, Christians and Muslim, Doctors, Firefighters, and professional athlete speakers united on the steps to speak of the harms occasioned to their people.  Many recounted the remarkable work of Martin Luther King who stood where they stood to denounce the prevailing laws of the day.   The media, who were perched high above on a platform atop thirty feet of scaffolding were met with chants, “Do your job, do your job”.   Unfortunately, what most of the media did was to ridicule and demonize the event.   Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. gave a passionate speech and paid a heavy price for using an analogy that offended many and led his own family and wife to denounce that part of his speech.  

     I met many people who traveled from the Midwest and further to attend this one-day event.  People from all walks of life and differing political beliefs and affiliation. One engaging person told me that a peaceful protest is more than twice as likely to succeed than a violent one. She also said something I had never heard and found encouraging.   It takes just 3.5% of a population to bring about change.  With just a small fraction of the people in a society actively participating in protest and activism, serious political change is ensured.   

     The disinformation in our media and the Oligarchy that has become our “main stream” media has been delivering Napalm bombs on public discourse, and the exchange any idea that does not swim with the stream.   I have always been amazed and humbled by the power of salmon.   We have all seen the journey salmon make to swim up stream to get to the breeding pools where they die after struggling to bring the next generation to life.   It seems to me we are in such a struggle.   One we owe our children and one we must make to honor our ancestors who traveled across continents on foot, lived outdoors and hunted for food that was also hunting for them.   We have become so soft and so scared that we are easy to manipulate and divide.   The disinformation and wrong information contained in the very powerful stream washing over us constantly is not designed to preserve our culture, or better it.  It is not intended to bring the people together.  It is not a stream of information that has any real compassion or love in it.  Impeccably credentialed scientist and doctors who are caring, hones and risking their careers to swim against the stream are being attacked with smear campaigns.   Oppressor opinions rarely resort to the “science” that proves these people wrong, but instead discredit with innuendo or outright hate speech.    Many are too afraid to realize what is happening and go with the narrative without critical thinking and debate.   They are attached to their version of an island of safety in those beliefs.    I have realized that you cannot tell someone in the steam that it is toxic, you just must show them you care for them and will love them no matter what.   You can point out that there is information available that reveals the dangers in the stream but let them come to that information without explaining it or telling them what it says.   If we loose friendships, distance ourselves from family or are unable to consider all opinions, the oppressor wins every time.   Hate is a sure looser.   

     The powerful entities who control the media are afraid of one thing.   People coming together.   The Defeat the Mandates protest in D.C. was a coming together that has these folks concerned.   The efforts to divide and conquer are so blatant now that even Government is publicly calling for censorship.  The acting United States Surgeon General has called for Joe Rogan’s podcast to be censored.    Rogan interviews some of the brave doctors and scientist who have been analyzing data and peer reviewed articles from around the world and disseminating the painful failures of government health policies.   With 11 million registered to listen to Joe Rogan disseminate scientifically valid information, more than double the numbers watching CNN, the reason couldn’t be clearer.   This call for shutting down speech should be frightening the hell out of the group that have the most fire power, the lawyers.   Regardless of who you believe, this should frighten all of us and catapult us into action.  Immediate, peaceful action.  

     Many of you have heard of Thich Nhat Hanh (Thay-teacher), a Zen Buddhist Monk who died last week at age 95 at his root temple in Vietnam.   He became a monk at age 13 and has been a peace activist his entire life.   Yesterday, at one of the Monasteries he established in the United States, Blue Cliff, I sat in a chair in the cafeteria, facing a wall.   Directly in front of me was a photo of Thich Nhat Hanh and Martin Luther King taken in 1966.   The two spoke out against the Viet Nam war and King nominated Thay for the Noble Peace Prize.   For those interested, King’s letter can be found on the Plum Village web page.  www.plumvillage.org.  As I reflected on the picture and the fact that I had just been to Washington where King’s legacy revealed its might, it occurred to me that no matter your good intentions and desire for change, action is required.  This letter is one of my actions.   Thay taught interbeing, the concept that the idea that there is an “individual self” is an illusion.   We are made up of non-human substances.   Water, Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon, calcium and phosphorous primarily.  We are made of the stars and the sun and the elements on earth.  The same applies to anything.  A flower is made of non-flower things. 

     Please consider finding your Buddha nature and take that into the world.  Martin and Thay showed us the way.  It takes courage to speak out with opinions that frighten others or may be unpopular.  If the lawyers, the magician archetype, with our magic language and understanding of the documents that our freedoms rest upon don’t speak up, who will?   Should we speak out against Corporate medical policies that prevent Doctors from being Doctors?   Would it be right to question the shut down of Court’s and lack of will power to quadruple efforts to make up for what the injured and oppressed have lost in the last two years?   Should we think deeply about mandates and what penalties and restrictions not yet designed or implemented may restrict our freedoms in the future.   Would it be wise to consider the right of every person to have the ability to be fully informed and provide consent before agreeing to a foreign substance in their body?   

    Whatever you believe, it seems prudent to consider how Buddhism speaks about two levels of truth:  the level of labels and appearances, often called “conventional truth”, and the deeper level of reality known as “ultimate truth.”   “If we are going to help our society and the planet, we need to wake up to what is going on at both levels of truth” Thich Nhat Hanh, Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet, 2021.   If we learn to do this and teach others, we will find that the only fact check we will ever need is what comes from ultimate truth.   The exact form of knowing that our ancestors used long before any newspaper, radio, tel-a-vision or internet, and the ultimate truth they used to cross the continents on foot, survive outside and hunt for animals that were hunting for them too.  A knowing that rests in interbeing and the courage to put that into action, will change the world.   

Namaste,

Kevin

Attorney Ferry Joins “Defeat the Mandates” March

Kevin-Ferry-at-mandate-march-DC

Attorney Ferry was in Washington D.C. this weekend with 30,000 other Americans to speak out against Tyranny.  Over the last two years, mandates of all kinds that shut down our schools, closed businesses, took away the constitutional right to a jury trial, forbade the right to assemble and the right to pray were unconstitutional infringements on Liberty.  Specifically, most of these mandates violate the First Amendment.   Mandates are not laws.   A law is issued after public comment and deliberation and vote by Congress and the Senate.

The founding fathers of this country knew that none of the other rights contained in the Bill of Rights meant a thing without the rights given by the First Amendment. “A funny thing happened to the First Amendment on its way to the public forum. According to the Supreme Court, money is now speech and corporations are now people. But when real people without money assemble to express their dissatisfaction with the political consequences of this, they’re treated as public nuisances and evicted.” Robert Reich.   A vaccine mandate is pure fascism.  That mandate is used to prevent you from working, from traveling, from eating and from meeting your friends at shows, restaurants or wherever they decide to shut you out.   They have even talked about denying you medical care if you do not comply!  This is sick.  They will continue to burden us until we demand our freedom.  I will defend our constitution as I represent my clients, with all my might.    You cannot back down to Tyranny.  Even if you think it will all just go away if you accede to some small demands.   

All the love, all the power,

Kevin
