Does petitioner need the government's consent to petition the government for redress of his grievance
QUESTION PRESENTED . 1. Does petitioner need the government’s consent to petition the government for redress of his grievance that the government has held him in Thirteenth Amendment slavery beyond the term of his punishment pronounced by the judge who duly sentenced him for his crime, and is petitioner’s status as a government slave defined by petitioner having only those federal Constitutional rights that the federal and State governments choose to grant him? 2. Without granting petitioner, an emancipated Thirteenth Amendment slave, due process of law, is it Constitutional for the government to impose as a condition of his liberty that he not exercise his Second Amendment right to keep and bear firearms for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home; and is petitioner entitled to a receipt from the government that he has paid his debt to society by discharging his judicially pronounced Thirteenth Amendment sentence? .
