RBC: Jan 3: Chapman grabbed by Police and Shrinks
A few blocks from the IRS Office and a few minutes before the demand time, Gene?s pickup-camper was stopped by a dozen police and he was placed in an ambulance. More details later.
I went by city-county jail at noon and he was not there. Apparently he was in the ER waiting shipment to mental hospital and mental examination. He should be back out in 1 to 3 months. Probably, the police had a commitment order from the Judge.
Many Patriots showed up to see The American Gandhi mess up the irs parking lot but he did not show. Afterwards we did not go to a BBQ joint because so many people objected.
Press Release: 1 Jan 05 Contact Gene Chapman For Immediate Release www.slavefreedom.com
Gene Chapman, the American Gandhi, will martyr himself in front of the IRS office in Greenville SC on Roper Mt Rd, off I-385, on Monday at 10am. The press is invited.
Gene's last meeting and prayer service was held Saturday at 1pm in Greenville at Carolina Patriots monthly meeting. This is the regular monthly meeting of the Carolina Patriots, a Constitution Study Group based in Greenville for almost 30 years. www.patriotnetwork.info
Gene told Robert Clarkson, the President of Carolina Patriots, that God told him to do this. "Gene has presented reasonable requests to the tax collectors but they are forcing him to depart this earth with a bang." See his blog at www.slavefreedom.com
Gene is unable to obtain employment due to relinquishing his Social Security Number based on his Christian belief that it is the mark of the beast. The Internal Revenue Code requires employers to ask for a SSN and notify the IRS if the employee refuses. No actual law requires a company to secure a SSN. The American Gandhi has requested the IRS to furnish a written statement to that effect.
Gene has perpetuated several hunger strikes against the IRS in Washington, D.C. and in Texas, and the tax collectors capitulated.
Chapman was a student at Bible College at Tabernacle Baptist Church in Greenville. Years ago Gene and Bob Jones of BJU achieved world wide media attention with their billboards concerning the Pope's visit to Columbia S.C.

Gene?s Demand to IRS [from his blog]:
Posted 1/2/2005 10:14:36 AM by Gene Chapman Flee The Wrath Of God To Come.
When I was a little boy, all the preachers within and without my family told me that when the social security number transforms from being a benign number dealing with the Social Security Administration to being an all inclusive control number over every aspect of life, "Get away from it!"
Since September 11, 2001, I have seen this transformation, such that Federal and State laws now mandate proof of a social security number just to renew a commercial driver's license, for example. Bank accounts, credit cards, everything is now tied to the social security number.
As a Christian who fears the 'wine of the wrath of God' (Revelation 14:10) for utilizing a government imposed control number on my ability to "sell" (Revelation 13:17) my labor, I can no longer use a social security number.
For two months in South Carolina, I have sought employment and been outright refused or turned down suspiciously a half-a-dozen times over my polite religious refusal to use a social security number. My savings is now gone, and I now demand from the IRS an answer in writing:
1) Must I have a social security number to have a job and get paid by an average employer in the United States?
2) Will the U.S. Government defend my religious requirement not to have or utilize a social security number when employers refuse me employment because of my lack of a social security number?
The EEOC and the Social Security Administration directed me to the IRS and an IRS ruling of July 2003 for an answer. The IRS has not responded, and I am dying economically for lack of clarification.
Thus, the IRS will provide me in writing either the answers to my two questions by 10:30 a.m. today or written assurance of a written response to the questions within seventy-two hours, or I shall be forced to take my life at 10:30 a.m. in the IRS parking lot this morning.
Respectfully, Gene K. Chapman, Servant of The Son of Man
How much did he shrink?....
Did this goofball kill himself? Or is he, like most tax protesters, selling a book or pimping a website?
Oh, never mind. I see he was strait-jacketed and carted off to the funny farm.
Not as much as he would have, had he gotten the chance to make an ash of himself!
Gene Chapman, the American Gandhi, will martyr himself in front of the IRS office in Greenville SC
I believe you have to file for a permit for that, and pay a fee.
Nope. Just Gene again.
And you nned a Social Security Number to martyr yourself at the IRS building. There is no getting around that requirement.
Sounds like he was a danger to himself, if not others.
bleat, bleat little sheep.....you know, when the day comes that the gov't tells you you can't go to church because they preach hate speech you all will just stay home won't you.
Go to the website mentioned here and listen to the audio link. Weird wild stuff.
That theory is as silly as the idea of America becoming a theocracy like Iran.
I'm afraid there is nothing Christian about killing Yourself.
I can agree with some of the concerns, but not to the point He wants to carry things.
The undertaker only needs it to file for the $200 death benefit.
Meanwhile, in an alternate universe, Gene Chapman, the illegitimate love child of Gene Hackman and Ron Chapman, stops taking his Haldol just long enough to shoot John Lennon, and collect an Oscar for his brilliant method acting in so doing.
Anyone know what the billboards said?
Why can't he work for Zoe Baird or Bernie Kerick?
You swerved into another valuable truth you sly dog. Pay into SS all those years, die the day after you retire and the gov't gives you a puny couple hundred books. & the amerikan sheep say "gee what can we do about it?"
And you think Gene is nuts!
