Woman Jailed for 4 Months for Building an Addition for Her Sick Mom in Her Own Backyard

Free Thought Project – by Matt Agorist

Augusta, GA — Nothing dismantles the notion of Land of the Free quite like the government kidnapping and caging you for building an addition to your home on your own property. Amy McKinnon is learning the hard way after she was thrown in jail this month for building an addition for her sick mother without going through the proper extortion channels of the state.

Sadly, her neighbors and the media are actually praising this nonsense as if McKinnon is some kind of criminal.  

“Nobody in their right mind would buy something next to a monstrosity like this,” neighbor Don Gilmore told FOX 8 News.  “Obviously, it’s an eyesore and it sticks out because it doesn’t belong here.”

Don is referring to the addition in McKinnon’s backyard that is on her own property and behind a fence.

McKinnon was arrested because her building size exceeded that of the permit she was forced to acquire through the city.

Code enforcement officials say McKinnon was initially approved for a 562ft2 gazebo, according to FOX 8. However, according to officials, McKinnon’s structure was more than just a gazebo.

“It was between the end of the first phase being approved and the second phase being approved that the inspectors found that this was not at 562ft2 home,” Code Enforcement Manager Terrence Wynder said.

McKinnon, who actually went through the proper channels of extortion and permission to build a structure on her own property, felt she was acting within the confines of the law.

As FOX 8 reports, according to documents from the planning and zoning board meeting, McKinnon said she was told by an inspector that as long as she connected the new structure to her current home, it would be fine. So she decided to go bigger in order to move her sick mother in.

But Wynder said the city never said this, and says they issued McKinnon a ticket for building a structure larger than authorities granted her permission to build.

“We wrote her a citation saying that you have to go to court. You are in violation of the zoning ordinance having two structures on one parcel of land,” says Wynder.

After officials ‘caught’ McKinnon committing the ‘crime’ of building a structure on her own property that they did not approve of, McKinnon was given an ultimatum.

Drastically reduce the size of the structure or demolish the entire thing. Not wanting to throw her hard earned money down the drain because of this tyrannical move by officials, McKinnon refused.

For not demolishing a building on her own property — McKinnon was sentenced to 120 days in a cage.

FOX 8 reports that they hope this is “wake-up call for anyone who is looking for loopholes to get around the law.”

“I want to see this thing come down yesterday!” says Gilmore as he gloats in his ability to use state power to hurt innocent people for doing things on their own property that he disagrees with.

Of course, if McKinnon had done something to harm Gilmore or her other neighbors like burying toxic waste in her backyard, this would not be justified. However, that was not at all the case in this instance. McKinnon is in a jail cell right now for the sole reason that she didn’t pay enough money to the state to do what she wanted on her own property — simple as that.

  1. This makes me mad, my dream is to build Earth Ships but the idea of asking permission and going through the song and dance has caused me to hesitate, I want the gov out of my damn way.

  2. “Sadly, her neighbors and the media are actually praising this nonsense as if McKinnon is some kind of criminal.”

    The media aspect is perfectly understandable, but the stupid-@ss NEIGHBORS???

    These @sswipes are dangerous to freedom. The ‘see something, say something’ commie sympathizers that will get patriots killed.

    Gene-pool cleansing… FEMA fodder/.40 to the head.

    Freakin’ idiots!

  3. Not sure I understand why shy got involved with a “permit” at all.
    The article states that the property belonged to her.
    Any creation is subject to its creator. The General Assembly via both the Laws of Georgia and the Official Code of Georgia Annotated have granted to the cities (municipalities) it has created jurisdiction over “its property”. That is property belonging to the city. See Laws of Georgia 1965, page 266, section 3 or O.C.G.A. 36-35-3. There is no authority granted anywhere over private property. Would be unconstitutional.

    1. Here’s why that local CORPORATION in Georgia believes it has the “authority” to regulate in the above story; indeed, why every sub-CORPORATION of the CORPORATION known as WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, (acting as agent for the several United States of America) deems itself, via the supposed “authority” delegated through contract that it is “authorized” to intrude in any way it can upon the lives of American Nationals.
      Simply put, the entirety of political bodies in the land have been INCORPORATED, in ADMIRALTY MARITIME Jurisdiction under the DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, and have left the land of the common law for the high seas of treason. Not only this, but via that mechanism, the assets of Republic, the separate States and the People as well as the very land under our feet has been pledged as collateral on the debt owed by THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA to the zionist-controlled and operated international banks.
      The CORPORATIONS (non-living shells of fiction created via contract) exercise authority in their world of fiction by the consent of those who contract with them. Since the VAST majority of people living in this land HAVE contracted with them to be sub-CORPORATIONS and subject to their fictional CORPORATE Laws and Regulations and Policies and Statutes via the FRAUDS known as “Birth Certificate” and “Social Security Account”, and have confirmed their status as sub-CORPORATIONS via “Driver’s (and ALL other types of) Licenses”, “Building (and ALL other types of) Permits”, interaction and submission to the Internal Revenue Service (the collection arm of the Federal Reserve Banking System), the use of the debt instruments known as Federal Reserve Notes, and a myriad of other things we take for granted (and, indeed, those things are ALL GRANTED): granted TO you BY your overlords, whom you and society have been conditioned to ask for permissions to live even the smallest aspect of your lives with their consent.
      That this entire endeavor on their part is completely UNLAWFUL and FRAUDULENT in our Republic (while completely normal and “legal” under their fictional estate), means little, for we continue to submit ourselves in any way they dictate, and after a bit of whining and grousing, follow along like the chattel-slaves we have become. This will only be remedied on this Earth by force of arms; retaking our freedoms that have been stolen via FRAUD and DECEPTION and the IGNORANCE and APATHY of We, The People. Should we (GOD forbid) fail to gain our freedoms, then I at least can rest in my knowledge that Creator GOD will judge them for their crimes, and that I will be there to see the Judgement executed upon those who have destroyed this world.

      1. Oh, I neglected to specifically mention one of the most eggregious Licenses offered for our enslavement: The Marriage License. Via this “License” you not only ask permission to marry your intended spouse, but you grant the CORPORATION jurisdiction and right to oversight – not only to your marriage, but to your children. Don’t believe me? Look into it.

  4. Communism and Fascism are alive and well in Ameikka. Mob rule with no individual rights and no freedom to pursue happiness on your own property ! That is the definition of a Democracy !! We are a Constitutional Republic with individual rights , but only if you stand up for them,because we are all enemies of the state now,second class Serfs. Disgusting !

  5. Land of the Free? That’s a f@#king joke. People telling you what you can and cannot do, eat, look at, record, video…unless you have the cash to pay them off in fees, fines or hire a lawyer in the injustice system. We are all slaves.
