Anti-Government Movement Member Arrested On Drug Charges, Cops Say

Brooklyn man linked to a group that has reportedly killed at least six police officers in recent years, police believe.

 

A Sovereign Citizen Movement member wanted on drug, weapon and theft charges in Arizona, was arrested in Mahwah Wednesday night after police say they caught him with a large quantity of drugs.

Oscar Ayala, 30, of Brooklyn, N.Y., was arrested after 11:30 p.m. Wednesday after being pulled over for a motor vehicle violation on Route 17, Mahwah police said Thursday. A computer search by cops identified Ayala as a wanted felon arrested in Arizona in October of 2010 on theft, narcotics, and possession of a defaced weapon charges, Mahwah Police Chief James Batelli said.

Police searching the car Ayala was driving, which was registered to a woman in Florida, found a large quantity Turanabol — a steroid — and marijuana, Batelli said. Ayala was charged with possession, intent to distribute, and motor vehicle violations, police said. The car he was driving was not stolen, police said.

Ayala was remanded to the Bergen County Jail and is expected to be extradited to Arizona to answer his pending charges there, police said.

According to Batelli, conversations with Ayala and tattoos on his body indicate that he is a member of the Sovereign Citizen Movement, an anti-government group that does not believe in judges, juries or law enforcement officials.

The movement is of particular concern to law enforcement officers because of a violent history between SCM members and police, Batelli said.

According to an LATimes.com article, the group has been on the FBI’s radar as a domestic “extremist” group that has killed at least six police officers in recent years.

The group also believes that the "U.S. is essentially under martial law, that some U.S. constitutional amendments are invalid, and that dollars have been illegitimate since the U.S. Treasury went off the gold standard during the Great Depression," according to the LATimes.com report.

Batelli credited the alert actions of Mahwah Detective Kevin Hebert and Officer Michael Blondin with the arrest.

There is no such a thing as a "routine traffic stop". You never know what animals may lurk within. Be careful and wait for back up. "Stay Alert, Stay Alive" God bless the PD.

Depends on which of the constitutional amendments he cherry-picks as being valid. From what I gather they have NOT turned in their guns... - which gives me a general sense on which side of the aisle to find him.

LOL... Just goes to show you how much people really know about their own Constitution and law of the land. Maybe some of you should do your homework. Www.PACinlaw.org/treason might be a good place to begin educating yourselves.

Andy, when you say 'they have not turned in their guns' I have to ask exactly what it is you mean by that. If I'm not mistaken, the 2nd Amendment remains valid today for the benefit of those under any political party affiliation. And our government hasn't yet signed the UN Small Arms Treaty, making it illegal to own firearms in the US. But I'm sure they'll do so at the earliest opportunity. Possibly when and if the Oscumbag regime gets another term??

I was reflecting on this comment:
>> ... U.S. constitutional amendments are invalid ...<<
and how they conveniently cherry-pick those amendments that they see as advantageous to themselves as magically being "valid".

The flaw in the entire argument is, of course, that you cannot possibly apply the terms valid/invalid to any constitution a group gives itself (or any amendments to it that were implemented by following the prescribed procedures).

It's the same concept as arguing about a mathematical "definition" being "wrong". By definition (pun intended), a definition can never be "wrong", as it "defines"...
I can "define" a perfectly valid number system where 1+1 is something different than 2.

(Of course, people be wrong in RECITING a previously established definition - that still doesn't make the actual definition wrong, just people's recollection).

As far as gun laws, we can't even get the assault rifle ban renewed - that fear-mongering that is being recycled every election cycle that I can remember, is obviously just hype when issues of substance can't be found.

I hope "feeding" you some information can open your eyes to the truth. I don't align myself with any "movement", but much of what they know and believe it the truth and NOT to be dismissed without first doing your own homework. http://draconduir.hubpages.com/hub/WTFHappenedToLiberty

Andy, I'm not saying that EVERY conspiracy theory is true. However, just because American's have been indoctrinated into a certain mindset is no reason to beleive that some of them aren't really true. Are you aware that the CIA was actually behind the murder of JFK? Did you know the real reason is because he was dumping the Fed and was about to issue gold and silver backed currency, which was already being distributed? Yes, my friend, it really is true. Did you know that the reason events such as the one about to hit Mahwah and the entire NE are no longer referred to as Martial Law events, when the Governors of the states declare a "state of emergency" is because the US has been under Martial Law since President Lincoln signed the executive order for Martial Law during the War Between the States? An order that was NEVER rescinded because he was murdered? Did you know that something as simple as the gold fringe that surrounds the flag of the US housed in courtrooms and gov't bldgs in the US and it's territories is representative of that FACT? A peacetime flag does not have that pretty little detail. There is much about our nation that most Americans are not aware of, due in part to the propaganda taught in our public schools today. It all ties in together, Andy. Come... fall down the rabbit hole, even just for a few, before being dismissive of things you really are not aware of. http://www.rightsofthepeople.com/features/articles/letter_from_citizen_to_local_sheriff.php

>> propaganda taught in our public schools <<

Doesn't apply to me.

>> real and lasting change <<

What real and lasting change specifically are you imagining?

I truly hope you will awaken to our reality today and help others do the same. Indeed, it is like falling down the rabbit hole. Once there, you are initially astonished at just what has and is taking place, then angered and God willing, you become a vocal proponent for real and lasting change. The more that are awakened, the better the odds we have in making permanent changes to the vast degree of corruption that has seized not only this nation, but the world, so please share what you learn. Let me know if you would like to know just how deep all of this goes, but this a great place to start.

I don't agree with fringe groups that take the law into their own hands or break laws as justification. The true SCM is legit, but there fringe groups that highjack just about every single movement. However, there are also extenuating circumstances in many of these cases that are sensationalized by the media. Facts are omitted that are pertinent to the clear understanding of what really takes place, etc. The media controls a great deal of what people see, think and feel and contrary to what we believe about ourselves, many of our opinions are formed exactly they way those who control the media want them to be.

Here's another trip down the rabbit hole for you. Since you're about to experience one heck of a storm tomorrow and Tuesday, I think you'll have a whole new appreciation for and outlook on storms of this magnitude, not to mention the "coincidence" in the alignment of 3 such systems. https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ywPf0Z6vkR0

As long as your actions are within the law, and any dissatisfaction with the laws is addressed by political means, or by challenging the validity of the law through the judiciary, then I don't mind whatever believes that are going on inside your head.

As far as myself: No thanks. I'm fine - I already have a life.

The change I speak of is simply educating the world about what you know to be the truth. The things that are happening are worldwide, not only nationwide. None of those worldwide events are coincidence, but all construct. From the financial collapse taking place to the manipulation of weather, drought, high energy and food prices, et al. Watch the video links I posted. It ALL ties in together, every single aspect of it.
