      This is the lesson I get from the movement. “States hold us hostage a gunpoint and would really really like us to give them permission, but make no mistake, step out of line and you’re dead. For your own good of course !” It’s like someone asks you permission, for something they were going to do anyway, but it makes them feel better if you say yes.

        SovCits are just selfish assholes that want all the benefits of living in society without any of the obligations. They want to use roads, have nice things, relax, and have plenty of food, but they don’t want to pay for them or contribute to their upkeep. That’s why they are always trying to worm out of oaying child support, not pay for traffic violations, get out of their sewer bills, and other anti-social behavior.

          This sounds like “if you don’t like capitalism, why do you have a cell phone and BUY food ?”

          Some people it seems would orefer if there were nine if that. That it is an intolerable imposition on them to be forced to support all that with no real say in the matter and no possibility of escape.

          I feel it boils down to “if you don’t like it, go live on Mars”

          If bro was living on a commune and he forgot what happens when you call them murder pigs to their face it’d be one thing, but something tells me he got mad because his stupid plate he bought on the Internet got him pulled over.

            The article mentions he had 2 felony warrants.

            Felony warrants don’t just appear out of nowhere.

              ‘Sovereign citizen’ shot, killed during exchange with Harris County deputies | Houston Public Media

              Classic misunderstanding. The corporation in his name has two felony warrants. This individual is simply being prosecuted by mistake and without consent. I’m sure he mailed the forms in triplicate with the horizontal red ink to confirm.

              Are those continental warrants, or were they issued from a maritime courtroom? (You can tell by the fringe on the flag in the courtroom.)

        There are no “lessons” from the “movement”. It’s ignorant hillbillies who don’t know how government works, who deal with ignorance via anger, and express their anger violently like any ogre.

          I"m glad somebody else finds it odd that so many here describe themselves as leftists yet seem to do nothing but sympathize with right wing rhetoric.
