    So $500k for taking it,

    $10k per “item”?,

    $100k per day,

    $200k per day if it is not returned.

    Got it, I think.

          I’m not a lawyer (though I am enrolled in law school, lol) but the entire thing is obviously fraudulent and wouldn’t hold up in court.

          The thing he/they/crown emperor of Mars or whatever cites is Article 1, Section 10 of the United States Constitution:

          No state can ally with another country; make war; make their own money; allow private boats and vessels to catch and arrest enemy ships; or issue their own bills for credit. States must make only silver and gold to pay for things.

          Like that’s cool and all but he isn’t a country, and one person does not a country make –

          But then he cited the 14th amendment:

          No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

          “Ahm, so uh – you’re claiming protection of a United States Citizen, then and recognizing the laws of the United States?” __

          This guy will get the book thrown at him and they’ll be laughing the whole time

            Presumably they don’t even need to go that far it isn’t a contract. No other party has agreed to it.
