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.

I look forward to seeing this appear in a bodycam video soon.

i can't wait to impound this fucker and charge him $19.85 per foot of crash wrap to cover over his smashed window. And knowing my guys, they'll use five feet very sloppily and overboard with lots of useless excess.

if we assume optimal conditions, as in, this dipshit is arrested within 2 miles of one of our impound yards, the very least amount this will cost him is $324.87, and that price goes up by $35.00 every rolling 24 hours.

if he doesn't pay to get it back within 90 days, we'll get a salvage title issued by the state registry of motor vehicles that transfers the ownership of the vehicle to us, then we'll "auction" the vehicle off (which oftentimes means "selling" it to someone we like for dirt cheap) and subtract whatever meager chump change a secondary buyer was willing to pay sight-unseen from the outstanding bill and send the rest to collections. then he can rant about his sovereign citizenship to the collections agents that will be following him for years and years thereafter :3

This seems like publicly admitting fraud.

That's a Plaid model Tesla, which starts over $100k. Please quadruple your fees and tack on some extra "service fees".

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

alas, we legally cannot 😭
the towing and storage rates are set by state law where we operate...
if it were possible to crank the price higher and get away with it, especially for fuckers who really deserve it, we would.
as just and right as it would be to no longer honor the protections of law over individuals who reject the law, it is not up to us.

That always works, I've seen the videos

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?

[–] [email protected] 142 points 11 months ago

Taxes and responsibility mostly.

[–] [email protected] 105 points 11 months ago (1 children)

And they don't need to pay taxes or anything but are entitled to everything taxes collectively pay for.

[–] [email protected] 62 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 38 points 11 months ago

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

[–] [email protected] 78 points 11 months ago (3 children)

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.

I'm surprised they can afford a car, never mind a Plaid.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

You can buy car emblems for $5 on ebay 😏

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

People buying more car than they can afford is the American Way.

Model S Plaids are probably not as expensive as you think. They’re even more affordable when you don’t pay taxes nor insurance.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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.

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

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago

i think thats the point. its like scientology, except its targetting people who are paranoid of big brother.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Quick, smash their car so they can defend their sovereignty.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 11 months ago

The Sovereign Citizen movement was originally set up by Big Autoglass to increase sales

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.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

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.

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.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 11 months ago

Without prejudice

[–] [email protected] 100 points 11 months ago (7 children)

no ... insurance required

God, fuck this person.

[–] [email protected] 30 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Nice of him to put a sign on his car listing the laws he's breaking.

Probably not all of them, though.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 11 months ago (3 children)

Did you know that in New Hampshire you aren't required to have car insurance? Sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing...

[–] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago (2 children)

NH where the state motto is “live free or die”

You aren’t either in Virginia. The DMV charges a yearly $500 fee for you to keep your license active but…..yea.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 11 months ago (1 children)

You don't need it in AZ too, but you have to post a bond with the state.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 11 months ago (1 children)

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

[–] [email protected] 7 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Not all states do

Mississippi only requires $10,000
Maine requires the most at $127,000

Can't wait for them not to learn a lesson in front of a judge.
