Chemtrails and constitutional rights 

September 2, 2026 by Guest Post Leave a Comment

by Roger Mitchell, Stevensville

“Inalienable rights (also known as unalienable rights) are fundamental, inherent rights that every person possesses by virtue of being human, which cannot be surrendered, sold, or transferred to another person or entity.  These rights are considered natural or God-given, meaning they exist independently of government recognition or laws; governments are instituted primarily to protect these pre-existing rights rather than to grant them.” – definition of inalienable rights from a Brave search. 

Article 2, Section 3, of the Constitution of the State of Montana reads:  

“INALIENABLE RIGHTS. All persons are born free and have certain inalienable rights. They include the right to a clean and healthful environment and the rights of pursuing life’s basic necessities, enjoying and defending their lives and liberties, acquiring, possessing and protecting property, and seeking their safety, health and happiness in all lawful ways. In enjoying these rights, all persons recognize corresponding responsibilities.” 

This means that, according to the State of Montana, I have the absolute right to be free from anything or anyone who pollutes and poisons my environment—air, water, soil, and anything which is derived from them, e.g., the plants which grow in my garden or the birds and insects which live in my yard. Yet, today, and every day, jet planes fly overhead spewing toxic chemicals into the atmosphere which eventually settle down and violate my own personal space, all with the consent and blessing of the State of Montana, thus making a mockery of its own constitution. This should not be.  

There is disagreement and controversy over what chemtrails really are and what they are composed of, however, without full and complete disclosure by those who have knowledge, we can never come to grips with this situation and will never be sure whether we are being assaulted or if our fears are unfounded. This creates distrust and is not conducive to good relationships. We must be told the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. The legislature in Montana and Governor Greg Gianforte MUST put pressure on the EPA and the companies flying these sorties to come clean. What exactly are they spraying into OUR skies? Into MY sky?  

I (and others who are working with me) will be at the Ravalli County Fair, September 2-5, to discuss this issue with anyone interested. We will be located under the tent at Site #40. You are invited to stop by and talk with us. We welcome everyone, agree or disagree.  

What is in those white streaks? Isn’t it time we found out?
