Huh?
These "freedom-loving Sovereign Citizens"?
Because they have a lot of guns?
Because most of them don't seem to have jobs?
Being dead-beat Daddys most of them?
How are they more free than those of us who work our jobs, support our families, pay our taxes, and come and go as we please?
You don't have to tell me that they're blockheaded losers. I know that already...

(2,682 posts)and have come to the conclusion that the ones claiming to be "freedom-loving" or "free" don't have a grasp on the reality that there is no such thing as absolute freedom. We all live by rules and laws -- its what keeps us from total chaos. I'm not free to walk down the street and bitch-slap some creep just for standing there. And no one is free to similarly assault me. It's the rules and consequences that keep us from anarchy. So, I would question those claiming "freedom" just what do they mean by it. Or do they actually want to achieve wide-spread anarchy. At any rate, they are quite delusional.

What really pissed them off, next to the bumper sticker was my Indiana license plate that says Navy Veteran.
