Am I reading that correctly?

I'm still trying to wrap my head around this apparent notion that signing a stamp is supposed to have some official function lol I'm assuming it's something he dreamt after a particularly large meal

A 2014 survey asked US law enforcement officials to rank terrorist threats to the United States. They ranked sovereign citizens as the highest threat — with Islamic extremists coming in second.

Jeez

I can't imagine a country that ranks it's own citizens as the highest terrorist threat

I think he signed, "The authorized representative of [name]." as opposed to just his name.
