Live Free Now? — California’s Freedom Law School Hosts Conspiracy Convention In Dallas

DALLAS, Texas The Phelan, California-based Freedom Law School, headed up by Iranian-born Peymon Mottahedeh, recently sponsored the Texas Justice, Peace and Freedom conference in Dallas, which headlined several of the most well-recognized iconoclasts in post-9/11 America. Speakers included William Rodriguez, the last man out of the twin towers on 9/11; Dave vonKleist, creator of 9/11 In Plane Sight and a new blockbuster DVD 911 Ripple Effect, and host of The Power Hour radio program; Jason Bermas, co-creator of Loose Change Second Edition and Loose Change Final Cut; and a host of other IRS dissidents, 9/11 doubters, and New World Order warriors.

The three-day conference, kicked off Friday, Nov. 16, opening with a six-hour class on the United States Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and moved quickly into a banquet speech by Tommy Cryer, a Constitutional attorney who beat the Internal Revenue Service in tax court after refusing to file 1040 forms.

Day two featured a screening of America: Freedom to Fascism, a documentary by deceased filmmaker Aaron Russo which asserts that the Income Tax is actually voluntary and that no law can be pinpointed which requires citizens to pay it. The film, in short, further stipulates that the Great Depression was carefully guided into fruition by elite banking families, and the Federal Reserve Bank is driving the nation into another economic collapse in order to guide the government into full-blown fascism, finally concluding with mandatory human implants of radio frequency identification chips.

The screening was followed by a clip of Loose Change Final Cut, the latest and last edition of the popular 9/11 conspiracy documentary, introduced by co-creator Jason Bermas; Joe Banister, a former special agent for the IRS, who described how he became a tax protester; and Anthony Saltalamacchia, a maintenance worker at the World Trade Center who survived the attacks of 9/11. The day was closed out with a banquet speech by G. Edward Griffin, author of “The Fearful Master: A Second Look at the United Nations,” who explained how the Federal Reserve Bank was created to enslave America.

Other noted speakers on Sunday included Robert Lawrence, another IRS protester whose tax evasion charges were dropped; Ted Gunderson, former chief of the Dallas, Los Angeles, and Memphis FBI offices; and a conclusion to the conference given by William Rodriguez.

Interspersed throughout the conference, the Freedom Law School’s President, Peymon Mottahedeh, encouraged the 200-or-so people in attendance to join the school’s tax protester legal defense fund or purchase one of their many “Freedom Packages,” which include courses and information on everything from beating traffic tickets and pressing charges against IRS agents to evading state income tax offices and methods to purge a citizen’s social security number, or “slave security number” as it was called, from government computers.

However, the “Total Freedom Package,” which includes 11 separate courses on fighting the government on multiple fronts, much like freedom itself, is not free. To be precise, this piece of freedom only costs $2,000, a savings of $710 over purchasing each information package separately.

The one thread that tied together nearly every attendee was a common and genuine love of Congressman Ron Paul, whom several speakers referred to as “the nation’s last and best hope for freedom.”
