Liberty Dollar creator convicted in federal court (Feds say opposing them is "domestic terrorism")

Are you saying that as long as the ‘currency’ isn't called a dollar it's ok? That I could create a ‘Yardbird’ coin and advocate its usage in place of the legal tender dollar and it would be kosher? Because if is just a label that matters then I was a domestic terrorist as a kid when I used my rabbit named ‘Dollar’(what I paid for it)as currency to obtain a baseball glove. Realistically, the government’s 6-year effort to bring Bernard von Nothaus down had one single purpose: to send a message. Uncle Sam is telling us very clearly, “You WILL use our rapidly depreciating dollars… and anything we don’t like in our sole discretion, we will label as domestic terrorism”, which could be the basis for future silver/gold confiscation.
