The Petitions for Redress of Grievances are NOT merely an exercise in free speech conveying statements of political discontent from the People.

First Amendment Petitions for Redress constitute formal, legal Notice to our Government that it has violated the Constitution by either trespassing outside the strictly limited authorities delegated it by the consent of the People or because it has otherwise infringed upon the fundamental Rights of the Sovereign People.

Petitions for Redress are LEGAL DEMANDS to cure Constitutional torts against the People. As a creation and servant of the People, the Government is obligated by the Rule of law, the Constitution, and Nature herself to yield and present substantive Redress.

The Right of the People to peacefully secure Redress through the exercise and enforcement of the Right of Petition is the Constitutional instrument by which the People enjoy, and orderly maintain, their Popular Sovereignty. This 800-year old Fundamental Right was first articulated in written law as Section 61 of the Magna Carta in 1215. It remains in force today as a cornerstone in the Rule of Law as the last ten words of the First Amendment.
