I apologize a lot
Four people in Essex today were sentenced for taking over a courtroom and attempting to kidnap the coroner.
What is this? Thinks I. They were part of a group calling themselves Federal Postal Court Judges.
And what is that? Thinks I. Oh, god, it’s a subset of the sovereign citizen movement – have we talked about the sov cits? We should talk about the sov cits – and it looks like it traces back to the States and a man named David Wynne Miller.
He sounds as schizophrenic as the day is purple.
He invented his own legal language that never prevailed in any court case, ever. It contains no adjectives, adverbs or pronouns. Only nouns have legal standing. Sentence must have a minimum 13 words and use more nouns than verbs. All legal documents must begin with a preposition (usually “for”) and everything seems to be in all caps. This is the example Wikipedia gives:
FOR THE FORMS OF OUR PUNCTUATIONS ARE WITH THE CLAIM OF THE USE: FULL-COLON=POSITION-LODIO-FACTS, HYPHEN=COMPOUND-FACTS =KNOWN, PERIOD=END-THOUGHT, COMMA-PAUSE, AND LOCATION-TILDES WITH THE MEANINGS AND USES OF THE COMMUNICATIONS WITH THE FULL-COLON OF THE POSITION-LODIAL-FACT-PHRASE WITH THE FACT/KNOWN-TERM OF THE POSITIONAL-LODIO-FACT-PHRASE AND WITH THE VOID OF THE NOM-DE-GUERRE = DEAD-PERSON.
snnnnnnfff, smell the psychosis.
Here’s a 15 minute video about him, including clips of him talking. He died of a heart attack in 2018. Which is a shame because I’m sure he had a doozy of a website.

In other news, Steven K. Bannon did in fact become a free man at 3:00 AM EDT and ran the WarRoom (on RAV) for two hours this morning.

Sadly I realize saying “gone postal” to the current younger generations gets one a blank stare.
It’s like talking about that Constitution thingie we made up after we stole the continent from the Mesopotamians.
You know though, after reading the article, if loser guys can claim they’re women and compete in the Olympics, why can’t these clowns tell everyone they “feel” they have the authority to establish their own justice system?
Men claiming they’re women is clearly “Nonsensical” so why not embrace the insanity all the way?

Mrs Fert and I watch a bunch of cop shows, court videos, etc. Often “Sovereign Citizens” show up and few of the cops (at traffic stops, etc.) seem to know what to do with them. Same for many of the judges.

Hey! I actually recognized that graphic: the Coat of Arms of the Corporation of the City of London. “Lord, Guide Us.”
If it’s a corporation, it ought to have a Chief Executive Officer. Would that be the Head Man or the Headsman?
BTW, what does JS 0295 8716 8GB mean?

I had never heard of the Sovereign Citizen thing until my best friend got embroiled in a legal dispute with his brother over the family’s estate. The older brother was the named executor and tried to claim as the eldest son, under sovereign law, he was entitled to the entire inheritance. It took almost three years and a huge chunk of money to squash that foolishness.

Some days I think the ‘sovereign citizen’ movement is libertarianism on bad drugs. Other days I fear the ‘sovereign citizen’ movement is libertarianism after the bad drugs wear off.

How could it possibly be any worse than what “government” and the “Legal” system have become these days?
