emoving discretionary powers from the police and giving the state the authority to<br />

go over the wishes of spouses to press criminal charges that result in bankruptcy and<br />

family dissolution. Conflicts that could be resolved in the privacy of homes within<br />

minutes or days are given the status of violent crime to destroy families, separate<br />

parents from children, and to transfer their wealth to the judicial class.<br />

The three strikes law mandates harsh sentences for anyone who has been convicted<br />

of two felonies and who upon being convicted of a third felony faces life in prison. It<br />

was first applied in Washington State in 1993 and then in California in 1994 to<br />

compensate for their lack of fluoridation due to popular opposition and then spread<br />

throughout the western seaboard for the same reason.<br />

As a result of such eugenic laws, hundreds of thousands of families are broken apart<br />

annually in the English-speaking world as well as in several European countries. In<br />

the U.S., the judiciary has become the primary tool for eugenic objectives giving<br />

America the dubious distinction of being the nation with the highest incarceration<br />

rate in the world and also in history at 743 adults behind bars per every 100,000<br />

citizens. When people on correctional supervision and on house arrest are factored<br />

in, the U.S. far surpasses even Stalinist Russia in the number and proportion of<br />

prisoners to the general population. The graph above shows that it was not until<br />

1980 that the eugenic use of the judiciary was unleashed.<br />

Statistics also show that visible<br />

minorities bear the brunt of the<br />

incarceration mania that has<br />

gripped the United States and to<br />

a lesser extent much of the<br />

western world. Canada ravages<br />

its native population by this<br />

method. Europe’s statistics, as<br />

well as Australia’s, are skewed<br />

by the fact that immigrants are<br />

held in separate detention<br />

centers and are not counted as<br />

imprisoned.<br />

The practice of imprisoning<br />

immigrants and asylum seekers<br />

is a direct consequence of the Global Depopulation Policy and is discussed later in the<br />

text.<br />
