Federal Court & Massachusetts Wind Turbine Victims

Federal "1983" Lawsuit- Massachusetts Wind Turbine Victims  

Mass Politicians & Wind Turbine Contractors vs Jill & John Q Public  

The State of Massachusetts has moved quickly to suspend basic civil rights in the last ten years to site commercial megawatt wind turbines within hundreds of feet of residential homes.

Massachusetts through the Democratic Party Platform has declared a war on fossil fuels. Local and state politicians have interpreted the declared war as a state of emergency in a decree that has suspended constitutional civil rights and enabled the executive branch of government and the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center to fund litigation and legislation without voters confirmation.  

There is no oversight.

Massachusetts has an "agenda" of 2000 megawatts of renewable energy by the year 2020. The "agenda" has a human cost of residential home owners.  For four years wind turbine victims have filed written complaints suffering from the poor placement of commercial wind turbines.  

Massachusetts culture, the economy, education, and law all came under the Massachusetts Clean Energy Center control. The "Green Agenda" is the only agenda.

The rights of the wind turbine victims have been suspended.  

Wind turbine victims have only one option today. File a federal lawsuit.  

Title 42 Section 1983 Lawsuits:

Civil rights lawsuits are one of a number of methods of holding the government, or people who act in a governmental capacity, responsible in court for their actions.

The poor placement of commercial wind turbines has been ignored far too long in Massachusetts. 

The main statute that authorized federal civil rights lawsuits is Title 42, United States Code, Section 1983, commonly called a “1983″ suit.

Sec. 1983. – Civil action for deprivation of rights
Every person who, under color of any statute, ordinance, regulation, custom, or usage, of any State or Territory or the District of Columbia, subjects, or causes to be subjected, any citizen of the United States or other person within the jurisdiction thereof to the deprivation of any rights, privileges, or immunities secured by the Constitution and laws, shall be liable to the party injured in an action at law, suit in equity, or other proper proceeding for redress, except that in any action brought against a judicial officer for an act or omission taken in such officer’s judicial capacity, injunctive relief shall not be granted unless a declaratory decree was violated or declaratory relief was unavailable. For the purposes of this section, any Act of Congress applicable exclusively to the District of Columbia shall be considered to be a statute of the District of Columbia

The Civil Rights Act of 1871 is found in Title 42, section 1983 of the United States Code and so is commonly referred to as section 1983. It provides that anyone who, under color of state or local law, causes a person to be deprived of rights guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, or federal law, is liable to that person.

Massachusetts has violated your God-given (Constitutional) rights. Defendants in 1983 lawsuits can be broken into two main categories, individuals, usually governmental employees or agents, and governments themselves.

The 11th Amendment to the United States, state governments can generally be sued for a violation of civil rights in state court, while local governments are routinely sued in federal court for violating an individual’s civil rights.
