I was thinking the same thing. They hate smokers worse than anything. You want to get their attention, just light up where there is a smoking ban.

[beckysueb]

No but we’re heading tat way fast.

[beckysueb]

My suggestion is for people to stop paying their property taxes. They will let you go for about 4 years before they start threatening confiscation of your property. If everyone who could did this, they would have to pay attention. Most cities and counties get the majority of their budget from property taxes. Just imagine if all over America, people stopped paying their property taxes. If just 40 or 50% of property owners did that it would shut down local governments.

[beckysueb]

I know someone who claims a bunch of Mexicans on her taxes. So far, she has gotten by with it.

[beckysueb]

Refuse to pay property taxes, too.

[beckysueb]

That is awesome! Good job!

[usconservative]

time for talking, begging, voting and pleading is coming to an end.

You're damn' skippy it is. Well armed is well prepared.

[beckysueb]

But if John the Dentist and Jim the Cabinet Maker don’t tell anyone, who is going to know that the trade took place?

[beckysueb]

What is a Gadsden flag?

“I also ignore traffic laws when it is clearly safe to do so (and there are no cops around).”

That’s what radar detectors are for.

“Just imagine if all over America, people stopped paying their property taxes.”

Seeing how the majority of people have mortgages and taxes are escrowed into your monthly payment, there would be a lot more foreclosures within 3 months. You go ahead and start it, I’ll wait until the lender’s scream loud enough...but since the gubmint now owns some of the lenders they’ll probably just let it happen and sell the houses to illegals with zero down gubmint funding.

[RobRoy]

I can’t. I rent.

[beckysueb]

How do you find smokes on the black market?

[MayflowerMadam]

It’s the coiled snake with “Don’t Tread On Me”. Was used in America — back in the 1700s, I think. Lot of info on the internet.

[Doogle]

through no fault of our own

[IYAS9YAS]

But if John the Dentist and Jim the Cabinet Maker don’t tell anyone, who is going to know that the trade took place?

Agreed. I was just pointing out the IRS position.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

PING (for future reference)

[Neoliberalnot]

Please pass it on. Email it, send it to blogs, send it to the various press outlets that allow comments and let people know we, as decent people wishing to conserve that which is right and decent, are sick of the direction the country is taking. Please modify as you wish.

May I make a suggestion? Could we have a ‘special section’ on the front page for creative ideas to protest and get our message out (like a ‘think tank’ or ‘current projects’)? A thread like this gets pushed down the pages in time. JMO :)

I think it's a great idea but have no idea as to how it this would be done on FR. Anyone else out there know how?
