I love how the sovereign citizen group page has the American flag in their picture. Like what are you sovereign from if you're still American?

Taxes and responsibility mostly.
And they don't need to pay taxes or anything but are entitled to everything taxes collectively pay for.
And don’t forget that all these Soverign Citizen IDs, License Plates, etc. are bought with real money. Curious how these “coupons” don’t seem to work on these storefronts.
You know what, that has crossed my mind a few times as THE reason even the most gullible idiot on this planet should have an eureka moment
no ... insurance required
God, fuck this person.
Nice of him to put a sign on his car listing the laws he's breaking.
Probably not all of them, though.
Did you know that in New Hampshire you aren't required to have car insurance? Sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing...
You aren’t either in Virginia. The DMV charges a yearly $500 fee for you to keep your license active but…..yea.
You don't need it in AZ too, but you have to post a bond with the state.
I believe most if not all states allow a bond in place of insurance but it's a huge amount so I bet hardly anyone does it
You just know this person complains about the government tracking them and the police state of America while simultaneously driving one of the most tracking capable vehicles.
the idea that cars mean freedom is truly the most impressive piece of marketing ever pulled off, mmm yes i can certainly smell the freedom as i sit in a mile long queue on the highway huffing recycled exhaust fumes.
meanwhile a bicycle is so untraceable that if someone steals one it effectively becomes theirs, and combined with public transport you can spend your night sleeping on a train and wake up for some adventures in a completely different country.
Not to mention you can get a train ticket with cash. Literally no one needs to know who you are.
Between plates like this, odd looking flags, and red hats I have learned how to avoid dangerously foolish people.
I sure am glad that they're deciding to mark themselves.
But The Beastie Boys’ Ad-Rock was who first turned me into a red baseball cap admirer. The last 10 years have been a nightmare but it’s better than it was.
Can't wait for them not to learn a lesson in front of a judge.
Yeah... I wouldn't go around announcing lack of license & insurance 🤦♀️ What are they THINKING??
Methinks the followers of this movement are being trolled by the "leaders" of this movement
Do you have 1h46m? Because there's an explanatory Münecat video. The whole "non-commercial travel" thing has a significance as well — US sovcits think if they announce that, they don't need a license.
I do not have a contract with you and I do not consent to paddling off these two hours of my life I'm never getting back.
Without prejudice
Thank you. I dived in. My attention span held out the first 24 minutes.
So far my main takeaway is that anyone who wants to stand up as a sovereign citizen needs to have a loud persistent unwavering personality and attitude for this. The kinda person who's good at memorizing all this and talking loudly & incessantly, and never backs down.
Kinda the same personality it requires to be a lawyer, but sovereign citizens refuse to submit to the system. They're standing up for fundamental human rights and they're willing to martyr themselves for it, one legal confrontation at a time.
Quick, smash their car so they can defend their sovereignty.
The Sovereign Citizen movement was originally set up by Big Autoglass to increase sales

i think thats the point. its like scientology, except its targetting people who are paranoid of big brother.
No insurance required huh? Would be unfortunate if something were to happen their car.
I'm surprised they can afford a car, never mind a Plaid.
Model S Plaids are probably not as expensive as you think. They’re even more affordable when you don’t pay taxes nor insurance.
eBay motors sold listings make me think they aren’t getting into a used Model S Plaid for less than around 55k. If they aren’t paying taxes or insurance, they aren’t paying down a loan for the car because the creditor would repossess that shit so fast.
I bet that car is either recently purchased or they’re actually paying their loan considering that you can disable a Tesla with the Vin. It’s one of the most connected cars in the world.
Crypto early adopter who got lucky and wants to avoid paying taxes on his winnings, or troll.
If they want to avoid paying crypto taxes, they should be paying every single other tax, and not making themselves a target for investigation.
Oh wait - that would be reasonable. Never mind, carry on.

Who says they’ll pay for it?
You know the sad thing is, I bet a lot of cops don't pull them over because they know it's going to be a huge hassle for them.
Eh, on the other hand, some cops LOVE the fight.
And even though I hate cops I also don't blame them because cops have died at the hands of sovcits before. I really don't disagree.
I look forward to seeing this appear in a bodycam video soon.
In their make believe world, is stealing from a sovcitizen a crime? Since "the law" doesn't apply and the cops "have no authority", it sure looks like they're walking around with "free loot"
First time I've seen anyone propose this, but I remember in a vid where a man referred to his child daughter as "property," so I think they have strong beliefs about this topic.
Taxes pay for roads. If you are a sovereign citizen, I don't see why you would be allowed to use or park on them.
They don't use or park on them.. they travel on them (or whatever bullshit they say).
This fake license plate is very aesthetically pleasing. Still don't use fake license plates...
That always works, I've seen the videos
