For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury:

—-  unanimous Declaration (of Independence), Paragraph, 3, Clause 17

       As part of the Compromise of 1850, Whig (nationalist) President Fillmore—without a constitutional amendment—signs the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850:

  • Removing fugitive slave cases from State judicial Courts to newly created federal administrative Courts—without Trial by Jury;
  • Paying federal administrative law judges five Dollars if they decide FOR the accused fugitive (self-emancipated) slave, and ten Dollars if they decide AGAINST the accused;
  • Forbidding accused self-emancipated slaves from testifying in their own behalf;
  • Creating federal slave patrols with the authority to compel State sovereign Citizens into tracking down self-emancipated slaves—regardless of their personal convictions on the morality of slavery.

       This indicates that the federal government had no interest in abridging slavery.  ——  JL
