Re: Sovereign citizens: Is this an accurate portrayal?
Legal tender is not the same thing as lawful money.

Nor is color of law the same as law of the land, nor is maritime commercial jurisdiction the same as land jurisdiction.

J is a full of shit and he knows it.

All powers vested in the Government collectively are held by each man and woman individually. The created cannot have more power than the creator.

Government were created by man, man was not created by Government.

And for the record, J is doing nothing but farting in the wind.

The Government cannot control crime, drugs, money or anything, it plays the illusion that it is in control of everything when it is the people that control everything.

Like any parasite, it cannot produce enough energy to sustain itself. The idea that 300 or so people in the District of Columbia have the power or authority to control 300 million souls is lunacy.

That's obvious nonsense.

Elect a president all by yourself.

You can't do it. The people can. They have more authority than you do all by yourself.

Federal reserve notes are not issued under ANY constitutional authority, they cannot be "lawful" accept by conditional acceptance of the individual. They are commercial legal tender, says so right on them, ya FUCK.

You can't because words written on paper are NOT magic and cannot produce any effect unless and until a man enforces them.

12 USC 411

Federal reserve Notes shall be redeemed for lawful money on demand.

Something that already is cannot be redeemed into what it was.

If FRNS were lawful money, they would be called lawful money, not LEGAL TENDER.

All legal tender is not Lawful money, but by contract agreement any "thing" can be considered lawful money.

The court did not agree with Rickmans claim that "because FRNS are not directly redeemable in gold or silver, they are not lawful money".

And they are right, that paper currency be directly redeemable in gold or silver coin does NOT make is lawful or not.

The issuing authority is what makes lawful money lawful AS issued, no contact agreement needed.

The Constitution set out the powers of congress and the other branches of Government and NO power is given to congress to allow paper money to be issued from the Federal Reserve as "lawful money".

You citing yourself again? Remember, you define any portion of our law. You don't tell us what legal terms mean. You don't define any jurisdiction. You don't decide if you're exempt from a given law.

A Republic is not a Democracy.

Grey is not white.

Blue is not black.

FRNs are not lawful money of the land.

Maritime commercial courts are administrative in nature and are not Article III courts of the land.

Gold and Silver coin are the original "lawful money".

Federal Reserve Notes are issued under the "color of law" and not under any Constitutional authority.

Without acceptance and endorsement of the individual, they are not "lawful" money as issued.

Congress, the President and the Judicial do many things under color of law that is NOT enumerated in the Constitution.

Obama himself stated "The Constitution tells us what we CAN do, not what we CANNOT do."

His is the same reasoning as J's, because he said so.

Re: Sovereign citizens: Is this an accurate portrayal?
Sovereign citizen is an oxymoron and only used by disinformation shills.

Correct terminology is Sovereign though I prefer "Free man on the Land"

Here is the gist of the Sovereignty movement.

Let's say you are born on the King's Land and he claims Sovereignty over you because you are on his Land. He taxes you and he imposes his jurisdiction or claims power over you. Did you consent to that just because you were born on the King's Land. No you didn't.

Same applies here. You were born in North America. Did you ever consent to giving the corporation the USA jurisdiction over you? Did you ever consent to giving the police (statute enforcers) jurisdiction or power over you? No you didn't.

Since you were born on this land and they just claim jurisdiction over you that is neither legal or lawful

For a contract to be valid you need FULL DISCLOSURE with terms and conditions and you need your signature as consent. Did you sign a contract granting the USA corporation or the police (statute enforcers) jurisdiction or power over you? No you didn't. Full disclosure means you are told what you are signing and that you agree to the terms.

The system is neither legal nor lawful because there has never been consent because there has never been FULL DISCLOSURE.

It's the same as if I was born on land owned by Apple computer and they claimed jurisdiction over me and they sent Apple employees over with badges and guns to arrest me. Crazy huh? That's the same as USA corporation. No difference. Thugs with badges claiming power over you yet no contract because you never consented.

Point being the USA corporation and the police ("statute enforcers") have no authority over you just like the King has no authority over you just because you are born. You never agreed to the system so what they're doing is just like thugs with guns claiming power or jurisdiction over you.

Even in their statutory system it isn't even LEGAL what they're doing..it's illegal and also unlawful. There is no basis for their legal standing. Because consent by YOU needs to be given . You need to sign a contract with FULL DISCLOSURE of contract details to give them power or jurisdiction over you

All arguments against Sovereigns are bullshit and lies...

Sovereigns are sovereign in their own right because they were born. No fiction can take away your power.

Re: Sovereign citizens: Is this an accurate portrayal?
I really don't know much about this subject. Is this a genuine description of these people of just the M.S.M. demonizing them?

From Kfor TV out of Oklahoma:

"Law enforcement is paying special attention to a re-surging group of individual extremists; sovereign citizens.

They are anti-government Americans who believe the U.S. government has no authority".


snip

"The world-wide web has been a handy tool in sovereign circles, spreading tactics of their particular flavor of lawlessness.

Sovereign citizens usually represent themselves in court, filing nonsensical paperwork on their own behalf.

Many sovereigns document their struggles to be taken seriously, then post them online.

They rarely have much success."


snip

“What I understand people in some of these cases are doing is making the argument that the original constitutional order left people free from the authority of the federal government and maybe from laws at the state level as well,” Blitz said. “So (they say) ‘You can’t apply these laws to me.’ Not surprisingly, the judges have said, ‘Yes we can.’”

Full article with video:

I just want to thank everyone who contributed to this thread. You've all given me a bit of a crash education on this subject and directed me to some great sources for learning even more. It's bed time for me but I'm looking forward to reading any new post when I get up.
Once again, thank you!

 Quoting: Zuzu



I been thinking this is the real reason for NDAA... once peeps figure out that we have to agree to this system with our free will because we are free will sovereign beings made in God's image, tptb will need the ability to arrest anyone without a reason... cuz the system is a legal free will contrivance... and when people stop complying the whole thing could crumble pretty fast...
