    Like surely one of these guys has realised that this shit never works right? Like do the people that make up these incantations and stuff claim that when they tried the judge was like “ah dammit you found the loophole, you win the case and here’s $10,000 for being so smart” or something?

      They end up in jail, where presumably they can’t facebook anymore.

        We’ve talked about this before, but I suspect the ones that figure it out just quietly give up, and we don’t hear from them again.

      Sometimes it works for a little while. Like this is a great example. The person gets thrown out of court, and their problem is solved for a while. Eventually an arrest warrant will be issued, perhaps their car will be impounded if they get pulled over in the future. But that hasn’t happened yet.

      And there are situations where judges don’t want to waste time dealing with them, especially if it’s something minor like a Fix-It ticket. I’ve seen numerous videos where essentially the court staff realizes that their job is revenue generation, and spending hours and stays dealing with the sovereign citizens is not cost-effective.

      It does occasionally work though. The big one is the Bundy standoff, the jury believed the bullshit and the lawyers didn’t properly explain it’s bullshit.
