And $5 will get you $20 Alex Jones will whine about this being a "false flag."
A 61-year-old man described as an anti-government survivalist was the subject of a nationwide manhunt after a four day search ended when a womans body was discovered in or near an underground bunker he built at his Oregon home in anticipation of a government collapse. The suspect, also described as a sovereign citizen, had video cameras mounted in several locations around his house and there were bars on the windows.

They are eating up every word the man spews...
For example, I get chided when they start talking about chem-trails. I just don't know the 'real' story.
The man is manipulative, a bully, and just a stain on humanity.

(6,324 posts)They claim to just want to follow the law, but it is a version of the law they invent.
They abuse the hell out of the legal system and government they claim to abhor, filing false liens and judgement against people in power who they feel have wronged them. It can take years and thousands in legal fees to get it resolved, even when it is all baseless.

Here in NC the morons have even started their own state government- charging their own taxes, having their own elections, issuing their own ID's and refusing to accept the actual state government as legitimate- because some whack job said it wasn't.
