      I guess you drive a car but travel in a vessel.

      No he clearly means his body! A solid gold copy of his berth certificate signed at 450 degree angle sent to the general of the Duke United Merchant Bank, will quickly banishment this illegal tryannt to twatlight zone and return control of his body

    So he wants to use a court of law to sue somebody?

    Hope he brings the right coupons!

    If someone steals your “vessel”, contact Starfleet immediately. If it has a cloaking device, though, you’re probably fucked.

    It’s too late for this guy. He didn’t declare a fee schedule and jiggle his left foot 8 times at the time the tickets were issued.

    Don’t be like him. Contact me before any interaction with state tyrants for only $750/hr and I will teach you everything you need to know. You can be reimbursed from your straw man account that is held by the government so there’s no need to worry about the costs. Just go to my website where I sell dog bandanas with WWII insignias and click on the “Contact The Real Person” link.

    By reading this you agree to the fee schedule posted on my website. Anyone violating this will be held accountable in a court without a gold-fringed flag. I do not recognize the authority of a court that hangs the gold-fringed flag. A flag with gilded edges is the flag of an Admiralty court. An Admiralty court signifies a Naval court-martial. I cannot be court-martialed twice. that is all. Furthermore…

      I funny think any of those guys would listen to a straight “You’re wrong.” Maybe it would be better explaining that they didn’t do their incantations quite right. Like “Oh, that license plate can’t be accepted because it’s black letters on a white background, which puts it in the domain of the department of commerce, who have no jurisdiction in automobile accidents.”

      I rewired a police station once. Literally the only poster they had up about groups to watch for was about SovCits, exactly how their nonsense “worked”, and how to handle them. It was pretty amusing, as an anarchist who wasn’t keen on that particular job.

        There’s a judge that literally wrote the book on how to handle them. I wouldn’t be surprised if they got the info from that.

          Not specifically, this was… 5 years ago? Something like that. Small rural town. I think I had a picture, but it’s long gone.

          It boiled down to “their arguments are nonsense designed to confuse you, just ignore what they tell you and ticket them. Be careful with the ones who are into homesteading, they probably have guns.”

      See the thing is, they are actually US citizens, even if they want to pretend they’re not.

      We don’t just revoke citizenship because people want to claim they’re not citizens. The US, like nearly all countries, does not revoke citizenship unless the person has another citizenship, they don’t intentionally make anyone Stateless as a matter of regular policy.

        That’s not entirely true, there is however a fairly specific set of actions you need to do to renounce your citizenship. If you remember the drama around Isis women wanting to return to their countries of origin the legal question a lot of times was whether they had effectively renounced citizenship, not that they had joined a state that America and such didn’t recognize as existing.

        The answer was mostly no, btw, they hadn’t actually renounced American citizenship in the way required, not that actual Constitutional definitions or legality matter to the state when it considers you an enemy, which is something these chuckleheads never really seem to understand.

    It would be even funnier if they weren’t at fault, but still ended up getting their vehicle towed.

    I don’t think they’re getting that car back.

      The vehicle tow wasn’t because of being at fault/not at fault; it was due to no valid registration/license (can’t drive it away without those [in the real world]).

    You can absolutely sue, but it will be for imaginary money in a pretend court too just like your fake laws.

      You lack discernment. A bastard is still a bastard when he mistreats a delusional freak, but this post is about the delusional freak. There’s no reason why we can’t feel superior to both sides in a stupid squabble.
