You tell most people that taxes are collected in at the point of a gun, and they look at you like you have two heads. But just try not paying them, and sooner or later, men with guns are going to show up.
Folks at FR have no problem with this concept. But you wouldn’t believe how many people will say that it isn’t true.
amnesty for New Hampshire!
Can any organization other than the FAA issue a TFR?
I suspect they've finally figured out what their answer is going to be to that shooting, so they have the decks clear to handle this one!
Looks like I have to find a new dentist...sad really, Elaine Brown had a very good reputation as a dentist and could have done well for many years if she kept clean on the books.
The government owns this entire land mass. We are merely tenants. Don't pay your rent, and you will be violently removed from your property... if you don't surrender first.
Ed and Elaine Brown are friendly, Christian people with numerous friends in Plainfield, New Hampshire. She was a dentist with a successful practice serving the community. They simply got sick of being stolen from and having their money spent on all kinds of evil things our government does. So they quit giving the mob boss his money. And now, the government is at the foot of their property threatening to kill them for it.
U-S-A! U-S-A!
Surely this is what Jesus would do, right?
"Government is an association of men who do violence to the rest of us." -- Leo Tolstoy
Wow, sounds like a possible WACO.
Too many "conservatives" only care about it when there's a (D) in the White House.
The only thing sad here is a few men attacking and threatening good people for their time and money. Completely unnecessary.
Why don’t you take up a collection to pay their tax.

They aren't conservatives. They are just Fox News Republicans. They've never read Russell Kirk, they've never read Edmund Burke, nor any of the other conservative philosophers.
They are just people rooting for what they somehow still believe is "a lesser evil". Just like their Democrat counterparts, from whom they are almost indistinguishable. It's just a pointless wrestling match that does nothing but get lots of people taxed and killed. But it entertains them, so they carry on, no matter what the results...
Sad.
Because it's not for me to pay. They could easily pay if they wanted to. They don't want to.
Would you have taken up a collection to pay the American revolutionaries' taxes? There were all kinds of people living around them at the time that told them to just shut up and pay the government its taxes, fwiw.
Perhaps one has been established, did you check local NOTAMs or with the FAA?
I hate taxes as much as the next guy but both Jesus (render unto Ceasar) and Paul both said to pay your taxes as a Christian.
Romans 13:
Let every soul be in subjection to the higher powers: for there is no power but of God; and the [powers] that be are ordained of God.
2 Therefore he that resisteth the power, withstandeth the ordinance of God: and they that withstand shall receive to themselves judgment.
3 For rulers are not a terror to the good work, but to the evil. And wouldest thou have no fear of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise from the same: 4 for he is a minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is a minister of God, an avenger for wrath to him that doeth evil.
5 Wherefore [ye] must needs be in subjection, not only because of the wrath, but also for conscience` sake.
6 For this cause ye pay tribute also; for they are ministers of God`s service, attending continually upon this very thing.
7 Render to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute [is due]; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honor to whom honor.
What's not to understand?
They've just put the impression of "compound" into the sheeps' heads. I'm sure they probably have an "arsenal" of "assault weapons" too. Things that are described this way generally don't end well.
Just for grins and giggles, can you please quote the law passed by Congress, and reference it, which states we must pay taxes on our income?
Just quote the passage from the law, please.
