I'll bet there are red faces at IRS and DOJ. See more of this story by search of TOMMY CRYER at shreveporttimes.com. (Blocked from posting article from that paper because of copyright complaints to FR)

That’s good for him, but it does not mean the next jury will do the same thing.

When I read this article I was reminded of something my Grandfather told my Dad when teaching him about defensive driving. My Dad told the same to me and I’ve told the same to my kids: “ You can be dead right or dead wrong, but you’re dead either way.”

Tommy won. But how much did it cost him to win? Here’s another quote: “Don’t try this at home kids.”

Wonder if the story will get picked up by the wire services and published in other papers?

This is not the victory everyone thinks it is. He still owes the tax. The jury only aquitted him of the criminal charges of willful failure to file. That is, the jury believed that he believed he did not have to file.. therefore it is not a crimianl case. But he still owes the tax.

So what did he win? Years of legal expenses... plus the tax. He would have been better off paying the tax to begin with.

As evil as it may be, you are never going to convince any branch of the government that you do not have to pay it. Every angle has been tried, and it has been a failure.

I think if we go back far enough we’d find it was a bunch of LAWYERS turned politicians who came up with this whole Federal income tax\IRS concept in the first place. If somebody’s got to beat them at their own game I’d rather it WASN’T a lawyer !!!

Bump to a not-guilty verdict!

The scam that is the Income tax and the Federal Reserve is presented in the following high quality film, free on the internet with a high speed connection:

Avoiding paying a criminal penalty doesn’t mean he wins.

This all goes hand in hand with the fact WE are supposed to follow a bogus law while the illegals break the law every day with no consequence.

What now? Will the IRS investigate the jurors?

[ColdSteelTalon]

You know when you file an income tax return you are waiving your fifth amendment rights? I don’t see how the gubberment can legally force you to do that.

Yes, well I know others who have made this argument and spent time in Federal Prison, so copy at your own risk.
