There's a friend of mine who has a law degree and he's fascinated by the American legal system (we're Australian). I told him about sov cits and his ears perked up when I told him how they think the police can't arrest you if you say you don't wish to create joinder. He started googling them and now he's hooked! You made a new fan, thread.

You made a new fan, thread. When checking up on the currentbstw of Micronations I cam across a novel from the 70s titled The Girl Who Owned a City. Basically sounds like post-apocalyptic Ayn Rand jerkoff material, only the protagonist is a 12 year old girl. Somebody do a trip report.

I didn't consciously pick up any of the propaganda when I was a kid and thought it was just a cool book about kids post apocalypse. I re-read it recently and it was so blatant, like: "Sharing is actually really bad", said protagonist girl, strongly. "Private property is good, and cool." The children applauded.

IIRC at one point she actually has all her power taken from her because she refuses to share the knowledge of where she gets all the food with people, and is kind of an rear end in a top hat. So some kids with guns kick her out and it's implied they try to set up a democracy, which is clearly an inefficient mode of government. I don't really remember too much about it apart from the conceit of the novel being based around "A virus that kills everyone older than like, 13"

Yeah, counting to three before getting your window smashed is pretty dumb and I thought that cop was (or immigration deputy or whatever-the-gently caress) was being reasonable. The courthouse where the guy got tazed seems a little excessive to me, that said I don't know what I'd do if some guy said he was coming through when he's not allowed through.

I think American cops are pretty excessive with sovcits after they killed some cops during routine stops (I remember a police training vid being posted where a sovcit with an automatic rifle just guns down a cop at a traffic stop). I think if they hear the sovcit "magic words" then it triggers a warning that the person they're dealing with is very unpredictable, and they should get them dealt with safely asap (I think that's why as soon as the people in the videos mention sovcit bullshit the first thing all the cops do is get right on the radio for backup).

If they were doing it consciously, there would be something almost noble about ceding the privilege of friendly and courteous interactions with the police afforded by being a white dude.

Speaking as a law enforcement officer, you are correct - there is training about what sovereign citizens are and how to recognize them. And most of what I have been exposed to is that when you encounter one you resort immediately to your basic tactics: maintaining a position of advantage, emphasizing awareness of cover if needed, bringing in additional resources, etc. I would disagree with that being excessive though. As soon as someone starts spouting off sovereign citizen nonsense they are telegraphing that they are more likely than some other random person to be a problem, and when someone does that it is your basic responsibility to put yourself in a position to deal with those problems. It's really not any different than someone starting a contact by saying "gently caress you cocksucker." They both mean the same thing: I don't recognize your authority, and I'm not going to cooperate. Those are the basic ingredients that lead to an assault on an officer.

Isn't their a high correlation between sovcittery and shooting cops?

There have been some notable shootings but I wouldn't go that far. Like pretty much any group, the vast majority of them are not inclined to commit murder. they're probably more likely than the population at large to kill police, but I'm not sure they're more likely than than the general population of 'pissed off people with guns' to kill police.

The difficulty comes from the fact that sovcits are less predictable than other populations, as much as that they're more dangerous. Several of the sovcit cop shootings were especially frightening because the perpetrators actively sought out police, and killed them with very little warning. JJ MacNab has video of the infamous one partially caught on dashcam- I'd link it if I were on a better computer. The folks at the end of the bell curve are basically domestic terrorists, and although they tend to get killed quickly, they often take at least some law enforcers with them.

The video people are probably talking about is the West Memphis 2010 Shooting https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gg38O2Dm7RQ&t=422s You can barely see Joe Kane get out of the passenger seat and open fire. This isn't some faces of death poo poo because you don't actually see the officers getting shot and there's probably a grand total of 5 seconds where you see the officers on the ground. Still, .

The biggest problem comes from the fact that sovcits don't recognize the government as legitimate and police are agents of said government. If they weren't a bunch of stupid white guys they'd probably be labeled terrorists by now. Dealing with a police officer is in their minds dealing with an agent of tyranny that must be fought. Most of them are at least smart or moral enough to not commit murder but it's easy to leap from what they believe to cop killing. I really can't fault police for going into survival mode, getting backup, and dealing with a threat with these guys.
