Roland Jones posted:Well, I posted that article about how the Hammonds abused their underage relatives on Facebook, and my uncle commented ""Ten mile hike and lil sand paper never hurt anyone lol. Seems to me media trying to divert attention from the real reasons behind there harassment of this family". Though I mean, we already know that he abuses my aunt, so I guess this is less a surprise and more an unpleasant reminder. Your uncle is a lost cause, who likes hurting children.

theflyingorc posted:"They" are? The reports I've seen seem to indicate that separate, supportive groups with poorly defined ties to the occupation are doing these things. It was a while back, but did the bundy group encourage other people to drive in and join the protest/occupation/insurgency? And were disappointed when few people did at the time? If they did, then the people who came to join the occupation are in fact tied to the occupation, even if the bundy guys don't want them to after the fact.

CommieGIR posted:A 'Common Law' court. There are militants patrolling the town and have pockets of local support. It's a small town too so they could probably just haul in anyone who disobeys and try/sentence them. Baby steps though. First they need to eliminate any local resistance, such as the sheriff. They don't have to actually kill him - running him out of town would probably be enough to pacify the local cops. How do they do it out in Yemen?

I hope they leave peacefully and let the town return to normal, instead of continuing to patrol it and capturing the sheriff like they are apparently discussing.

Discendo Vox posted:The "militants patrolling the town" are mostly unaffiliated hangers-on, who haven't done anything anyone can be charged with. They asked "patriots from all over the country" to join the fight. They're a different group but they're definitely affiliated now.

Discendo Vox posted:That's really not sufficient for a legal case and they still don't have identifiable people actually doing illegal things in town. Cruising around being a dork with your AR isn't enough without other elements. Sure, but I wasn't speaking in a legal sense. Just getting a hold of the situation: an armed gang of occupied a federal building, threatening the town, they rallied other would-be insurgents to their cause, and there are now rumblings of them wanting to, or planning to try, to take the sheriff hostage. They are now trying to set up their own court system, and have armed militants patrolling the town. I mistakenly conflated the two - it turns out that the second insurgency was merely invited by the first, but they are a separate group. Townspeople are being harassed - some explicitly and having to flee (such as the sheriff's family), others merely at random trying to go about their lives. Legalistically, I don't know what they're going to call it. But to the average person, it is what it is.

Roland Jones posted:Yes it is. Go watch that Florida police video where the teenager gets out an assault rifle and guns down two cops, making sure to shoot them when they're down. Or the two who went from the Bundy ranch to go kill a cop in Las Vegas. Those are the kind of person doing this, and they're not only congregating in the refuge, they're patrolling the town with their weapons and scaring the hell out of its inhabitants. They're stalking government employees and their relatives. They've literally talked about lynching the sheriff. These people are a risk to both the people of Burns and themselves, and giving them free run of the town is massively irresponsible. Pulling over a sovcit

In video games you can use gas grenades or tranquilizer rounds and the enemy just goes "ungh" and falls asleep for a while. In real life you will do nothing, or you will suffocate or kill them.

Main Paineframe posted:Rather than needing magic words to avoid the law, many sovereign citizens believe that the law doesn't apply to anyone in the first place, and that the entire modern legal system is an incredibly elaborate ruse designed to trick and intimidate people into waiving that exemption. The believe their "magic words" are just a way of exercising and defending their rights, just like a white college kid repeating "I do not consent to this search of my vehicle" over and over as a cop reaches for the bag of weed under the driver's seat. To them, being arrested and hauled into court is just the state putting on a show of legal theater to scare them into accepting the court's authority. Typically a sovereign citizen believer's brush with the system is something minor like traffic tickets or unpaid taxes, so it's not often they get tazed or jailed; when they do, they believe it's police brutality or illegal confinement and hold faith that their magic words will get the cops and the court punished for this so-called abuse. Yeah, it's like that idea that a company or person can't force you do do anything you didn't agree to, and if you won't want to play by their rules you can just not sign the contract. They argue that since they didn't agree to the contract, they're not bound by the terms of it. Except the contract is the social contract, and the government doesn't work that way. I'm fond of that one legal paper penned by an Alberta judge: Meads v. Meads, 2012 ABQB 571. (and here's a pdf link). Frustrated by the phenomenon, he dissects it. quote:[395] OPCA litigants who adopt this scheme tend to identify practically any state document, even a driver’s license or a birth certificate, as a contract. CERI members explain that is the reason why they do not use driver’s licenses or license plates. They argue, in effect, that they do not wish to be in a contract with the state, and should be able to engage in activities, for example operation of a motor vehicle, without being bound to the state in that manner. He also gets in some pretty good burns. quote:[80] When gurus do appear in court their schemes uniformly fail, which is why most leave court appearances to their customers. That explains why it is not unusual to find that an OPCA litigant cannot even explain their own materials. They did not write them. They do not (fully) understand them. OPCA litigants appear, engage in a court drama that is more akin to a magic spell ritual than an actual legal proceeding, and wait to see if the court is entranced and compliant. If not, the litigant returns home to scrutinize at what point the wrong incantation was uttered, an incorrectly prepared artifact waved or submitted. quote:[434] As previously explained, Mr. Meads subscribes to the idea that the non-corporeal aspect of himself was created by the state (or alternatively by me, on June 8, 2012). He must believe he nevertheless has ‘signing authority’ over that other personality because in his “power of attorney” he, as “DENNIS LARRY MEADS, Debtor and Grantor”, authorizes his “attorney-in-fact”, “Dennis-Larry: Meads, Secured Party Creditor” total control over his affairs. Presumably, the ‘corporate entity’ is now a puppet for the physical person.

Why did the hammonds go to jail again? Can they prove who exactly was holding matches when starting the arsons? I mean they don't have video footage or anything of the fires. I mean yeah he instructed his nephew to drop lit matches along the countryside until he ran out, and said "We are going to light up the whole country on fire", but that's just speech so why are they in prison? In light of Huratee, sounds like the Bundys have a case!!!!!!!

I saw the argument about the FBI piling up little things for each individual militant instead of throwing the book at them for their little armed uprising, and thought "well how does that apply to the hammond case that ostensibly kicked this thing off from the start"? I overlooked that the Hammonds straight-up admitted to the fires (I had a brainfart and assumed they'd deny)

Armed and dangerous man, who repeatedly says he's willing to kill police trying to arrest him and they'll never take him alive, who attacks them with his vehicle, then after a lengthy chase getting out and refusing to comply, and then reaching into his coat for his gun, is practically the definition of a good shoot. theflyingorc posted:Tarp man!
