    Sovereign Citizens are crazy. Who thinks they can live in our society, use the things our taxes built, steal from companies, not follow the rules and laws our society made and just say they are special and get to do it. These people want to be leeches. How about pay your taxes, pay for products and services you use, follow the laws and join the society. We all must live together and there are rules.

        Yeah, fuckin freeloading babies. Crows repay kindness with shiny things though, so I’d take them off the list.

          During the snow storm a couple weeks ago, I put a pack of walnuts and dried fruit out for the 3 crows that are always in my yard. The next day they were staring in the window at me so I put another pack out.

          That afternoon around 100 crows were on my house pooping on everything. A week later my driveway and deck still have a solid covering of poop that the rain hasn’t been able to wash away.

            Keep feeding them and you’ll have a loyal army of crows, and that’s more than worth the cost of peanuts and a power washer.

              Isn’t bird poop acidic? Wouldn’t that fuck up your house? Other than that I would love a murder of crows just chilling by me.

            Put a dollar bill with the next pack of fruit and nuts and see if they will start bringing you cash.

        It does, except rich people just pay this stuff cos it is negligible. They avoid consiquences by throwing money at their issues in the form of lawyers. (Or just money presented by lawyers).

        These poor people have been conned into thinking that the law doesnt apply to them or worse still there is some super secret underground law that only the elite know. Truth is, in civil law with enough money and time there are no consequences because your oponant cant afford to keep fighting, and if they can by the time there is consiquences youve made so much you dont give a fuck.

      This is basically the core of Republican ideology. Living off of the benefits of society while claiming to be 100% self made and then destroying the underpinning of that social fabric because it “isn’t needed”.

        They are a bit different, the rich found out how to be leeches while still following the law (or making it seem like they do) whereas these guys are more like both leeching and shouting out loud that they are leeching

      On another note it’s kind of nearly impossible to really at all decouple yourself from society. Even as a literal homeless person who is denied every single benefit of society you’re subject to the poaching by tax agencies (I’ve been there. Imagine building up radio tax debt when you are literally live on the streets).

          Disagree, shoplifting has become an organized crime ring in many cases.

          I’m not gonna sound the alarm over people stealing basic necessities, but I’m constantly seeing people running out of local stores with carts full of electronics, makeup, and other resale items.

          If you’ve chosen to steal from someone else, you’ve failed yourself.

      I can almost get it, when I watch the state and federal government take 30 percent or more of the money I earned, so they can give it to clowns like Trump and a Biden to do stupid shit that I don’t agree with. And don’t give me any, “be the change you want to see!”, bullshit either. The fact of the matter is, if you’ve got the millions, you can do what you want, pay the fine, bribe the officials to look the other way, and generally be left the fuck alone. If you don’t, and you’ve never been given the tools and/or opportunity to get out from under living paycheck to paycheck to survive, it’s easy to understand the mental gymnastics necessary to believe in this shit. It’s ignorant speak for, “leave me the fuck alone”. Let me be clear that I fully understand and agree with the idea that this idiot wants to steal from a utility company… I’m just saying, if you don’t have the ability, resources, or education to find a place where you can live “off the grid”, looking for magical solutions isn’t hard to understand.

      Shit, Disney trained me to believe that all I need to do is wish upon a star…

      Fucking stupid cricket.
