Cooper's death was not the result of any unyielding stance for Objective Truth regarding illegitimate taxation by the Washington Leviathan. It was precipitated by bizarre and violent behavior towards a fellow non-government civilian. And BTW, Cooper drew first blood (by a member of the Sheriff's offfice, whose authority the Cooper-types fully recognize).
As I showed above, sometimes dangerous screwballs can be right about some things (such as the Klan), but that does not mean they are not dangerous screwballs; nor does it mean they should be revered (I always laugh when I see someone at this site claim the Northern Alliance/U.S. crackpots are just peachy-keen, because they are against The Taliban/U.S. government).
Unfortunately, every tale does not have a hero.
Federal jury convicts 12 in tax-protest case
Askel, its nice to know they can find juries made up of people that don't think like you.
I find it obnoxious that the american haters over look simple facts like Cooper drew first blood by shooting a deputy.
