As a sovereign citizen, and not a citizen of the United States, I am curious which constitutional freedom he is defending.
Whew, the way you phrased that I thought you were one of them for a hot second.
Has the same energy as "I, like Hitler, am a failed painter"
YO YOU LIKE oh wait never mind. Phrasing.
“Traveling, not driving” …that’s not how cars work
Maybe if you’re in the passenger seat and you let Jesus take the wheel.
That’s how a lot of SovCits seem to live their lives already.
I wish more of them would let Jesus take the wheel when they're driving 70mph on an empty road (don't want others to get hurt).
lol, fair enough
Cop talked about in the first image, "oh fuck, it's one of those sovereign citizen guys. I don't get paid enough to deal with them."
Honestly I don't blame them. Sovcits are violent.
Even if they’re not, every moment arguing with one of them is a moment not filling your ticket quota. It’s sort of like the reason cops don’t stop lawyered-up white suburbanites.
Agreed.
True enough, easier to pull over a black guy and shoot them instead. Mich less blow back as well.
Oh my god I'm from that town. Now I have to keep my eye out for this guy.
Take a picture and post it in your town's Facebook page, so the police fell compelled to arrest him lol
Mornin' Mr. Free Man. Looks like you're running late.
Wake up and smell the ashes
Of course the state police pulled him over, his tag says Free Man instead of Private. He didn't use the correct magic word so it didn't count.
Sovcit has found out that sheriffs are corrupt assholes who believe that they are the highest authority (even above the president) in the land. See "constitutional sheriffs." For some great reading on the problem with right-wing sheriffs, see Posse Comitatus blog. And A Tradition of Violence The History of Deputy Gangs in the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (written) and A Tradition of Violence (podcast). Sheriff probably agrees with sovcit, at least to a degree.
The second cop was just lazy.
And yet unsophisticated minds continue to imbue him with romantic power, giving him such dangerous poetic labels as the One Free Man, the Opener of the Way.
