Je ne givashit pas about your Free State Project. They were going to come here to NH and show us how it’s done. I had no problem with that. They were going to take over the town of Grafton (not far from Plainfield, incidentally) and make that a base for taking the rest of the state over. As far as I can see, they can’t even take over a tiny town of <1000 people. It doesn’t really sound like an idea whose time has come to me; does it to you? Doesn’t much really matter what I think of it.

[Nailbiter]

Call the Jake and Elroy, LOL

Yeah, I think he’s an atheist who has doubts about his non belief. I watched the press conference, and Weaver kept quoting the bible. Perhaps he’s just angry at god.

[Past Your Eyes]

So, do you shoot right-handed or left-handed? Or is one of those pictures of somebody else?

[an amused spectator]

Income tax concentration camps...

[Michael Barnes]

Pay your share!

shot in the dark here, but I think that is why many people are so frustrated (including whomever one believes is a loony), in this country "fair share" is not fair across the board. And lets face the facts, the Govt simply does not want to listen or act upon the will of the people anymore; at least the will of the tax burdened people.

[corlorde]

I can shoot both. Yeah, it’s me.

[an amused spectator]

Our Founders beef was "No Taxation WITHOUT Representation.", not "No Taxation period." Out Founders put in Article I of the Constitution this little phrase "The Congress shall have the power to lay and collect taxes".

Interestingly, our Founders also believed that one representative spoke for 20,000 citizens. We're now at 600,000 plus citizens per representative and counting, and with this amnesty deal, it'll go up to 650,000.

Maybe we should save the taxpayers some money and have just ONE representative, and we'll still be satisfying the "No Taxation WITHOUT Representation" requirement for the rubes...

Why do you support taxing products made in communist China and socialist Germany and France at the same rate as products made in the US?

Tariffs are the conservative version of the NRST. The NRST is compatible with globalism. Or, are you one of those open borders free trade globalists?

“...I’m curious about the afterlife. And I’m an atheist.”

Ummm...huh?

[Past Your Eyes]

I’ve never tried to shoot left-handed but I bet I could do it. Not sure I’d want hot 5.56mm casings hitting me in the face, though.

[corlorde]

They have left handed casing deflectors you can place on the ejection port. Normally, I shoot right handed. The DMZ South Korea picture is just me, picking up my M16 for the picture before formation. The one in Egypt, is how I normally carried my rifle and in this case, the M-4.

[ovrtaxt]

These guys aren’t saying ‘no taxes period’ either. They want to see the LAW that says they must pay. Their specific gripe is with the tax code itself.

[ovrtaxt]

Personally, I wasn’t planning to move there. I liked the idea too, but reality doesn’t always cooperate.

[AppyPappy]

They want to see the LAW that says they must pay.

No they don't. They have seen the law. They want to AVOID the law. That's why they try to hide the income. Why would you try to hide from something that doesn't exist?

[ovrtaxt]

I’d love to see tariffs enacted concurrently with abolition of Federal taxation- the way the unamended Constitution says it’s supposed to be done.

But there’s no bill in Congress for that.

[verity]

“I ain’t afraid of dying no more. I’m curious about the afterlife. And I’m an atheist.”

God speed.

[DainBramage]

These people are in trouble for not disclosing over a million in income, big difference. He skipped a hearing and now they are at his door.

He wanted this and now has it. Read the article, he wants to pay no taxes, not fair taxes.

Now his militia, Aryan nation, white supremacy buds are backing him. This is their version of a suicide bomber. Overnight martyrdom.

[ovrtaxt]

I suppose we can sit here and debate what’s already been debated back and forth for years now. But again-

If we pass this bill, this is all a moot point anyway.

[LambSlave]

Most people are fairly reasonable. Nobody likes paying taxes, but they are a necessity and the vast majority of people realize that. The "vast majority" of Americans don't pay net taxes, so what you say is probably true. But for those who do, especially those like these folks who are in the top 5%, it is just a little harder to realize. When you pay more than half your income to fund socialist programs that are against everything you stand for it is hard to realize; when you watch those who made poor decisions prosper while your dreams just keep getting pushed aside for another year it ain't easy; when you know you could retire this year at 40 without the confiscatory tax rate and live off your investments, but instead have to work for many more years.
