Why aren't police publicly furious at RWmedia/TeaParty when police are targeted by RWers?

This article was written BEFORE the recent killing sprees in Las Vegas and Pennsylvania by RWers targeting law enforcement. The targeting of law enforcement that never rises to any level of concern by RW media. RW media WILL drive the narrative of these NYC shootings, and corporate M$M will let them do it……they always do.

Officer Safety Corner: Sovereign Citizens on Traffic Stops

The Movement

The sovereign citizens movement is a relative of the posse comitatus and militia movements and is believed to be rapidly expanding in the United States. The basic premise is that the federal government is all one big conspiracy to collect money from the citizens. The details of the conspiracy vary from one sect to another, but all agree the federal government is engaging people in secret contracts when we sign documents like driver’s licenses and social security cards. Generally, the first contract we are duped into is at birth, when issued a birth certificate, and it only gets worse from there. Members of the movement, sometimes known as sovereigns, actively reject their U.S. citizenship and rely on their God-given rights as a sovereign citizen. Some embrace citizenship of a state or a county, but some do not recognize any conventional government authority. The movement is politically far right wing, feverishly preaching limited government and nearly unlimited personal freedoms. The ideology rests on the concept that there are only two basic laws:

Do all you have agreed to do, and
Do not encroach on other persons or their property.
All other laws are part of the grand, corporate scheme to control people and collect money from them. They believe victimless violations are not crimes. For example, driving under the influence and speeding are not crimes unless the driver crashes and someone is victimized. The sovereign view of the federal government is summed up on the sovereign content website, http://www.buildfreedom.com/tl/pct07.shtml, with, “The enemy wants to rob you. That’s how he gets his income and makes a living. Ultimately, it’s your own determination, ingenuity, and resourcefulness that will deflect the enemy to seek out an easier mark.”


Opting Out

Many sovereigns seek to opt out of their U.S. citizenship by filing or recording legal—or legal-appearing—documents. The documents state that the sovereign rejects any “hidden or adhesion contracts” supposedly triggered by things such as using Federal Reserve Notes, a bank account, a social security number, a driver’s license, state license plates on a car, tax returns, birth certificates, marriage licenses, public school systems, declaration of U.S. citizenship, voter registrations, or even 2-letter state abbreviations and zip codes. However, many sovereigns concede that it is difficult to actually not use any of those things, so they conform under protest. Behavior like the driver’s in Las Vegas may be common.


Who Are They?

The Southern Poverty Law Center estimates that there may be as many as 300,000 sovereigns in the United States, with varying degrees of commitment to the cause. Their individual motivations may range from a desire to not pay taxes to a true and deep sense of patriotism and dissatisfaction with the current federal government. They may simply protest the current system, but actually follow the rules, or they may reject the system entirely and follow no regulatory rules at all. Most fall somewhere in between. There are many of them, and they can be found all over the United States.


Criminal Behavior

Most of the sovereigns’ crimes are nonviolent, such as fraudulent liens and tax evasion, but some are very dangerous. Many sovereigns identify with Revolutionary War Minutemen or militia movements. Their forums on the Internet commonly have references to defending their perceived rights with violence if confronted by law enforcement. The tragic murders of two Saint John Parish Louisiana Deputies in August 2012 and two West Memphis, Arkansas, Police Officers in May 2010 give testimony to the dangers some sovereigns pose. Since the year 2000, at least six officers have been killed by known sovereigns.
