"I'm a sovereign human being, I stand under common law only" - Thread of Freemen

What is a Freeman-on-the-land? Well, it isn't someone who remains outside the law. No-one is outside the law, so this is not a proposition for anarchy.

But - it all depends on what is meant by 'law'.

And that's the catch. What you have grown up to assume is 'the law' is not, in point of fact, the law.

That's The Grand Deception. Hitler was right: "If the lie is big enough, the People will fall for it".

Once you know the deception, and what the law actually is, you'll realise how the wool has been firmly and deliberately pulled over your eyes, your parent's eyes, and those of everyone you know.

You will realise that, while you do not cause harm or loss to another, while you never breach the peace, and never employ any mischief in your promises & agreements, you SHOULD (by Rights) never, ever, end up in court - whatever else you may do. And that, if you do end up in Court, you can stand on your Rights to get any case withdrawn, BEFORE IT EVEN STARTS! Start reading, and take control of your life, because the real Truth can, indeed, set you free.

woah i just watched that entire thing and it changed my life

part conspiracy theory, part semi-literacy, part sad bastards with too much time on their hands

"You will realise that, while you do not cause harm or loss to another, while you never breach the peace, and never employ any mischief in your promises & agreements, you SHOULD (by Rights) never, ever, end up in court "

Just tried to apply this axiom to whether or not it's ok for me to eat the ham and cheese sandwich I've prepared for myself on returning from the boozer, level of recursive thought involved in spangling my brain

woah i just watched that entire thing and it changed my life

in a new york minute, everything can change

What is Common Law?
It's the "law-of-the-land". And the Grand Deception starts when you do not realise the implications of the apparently insignificant word "land". And the very real difference between "the land" and "the sea". There is "law-of-the-sea". It's sometimes called Maritime Law. Or Admiralty Law, and so on. Other terms, meaning the same thing, are Civil Law, Commerce Law, Fleet Law, etc. Statutes are the "law-of-the-sea" and, if you committed the (apparent) violation on dry land, then you are only subject to the law-of-the-land. And the only "law-of-the-land" is Common Law. Statutes, passed by any Parliament, are the "law-of-the-sea"

no joeks lads but the freemen of the land would soon get their arses felt if they ever tried any of their fast talk with the freemen of the sea

i'm a bit bemused as to why these dudes feel that having number plates on your car and buying a TV licence are the two greatest instances of state oppression in history

*is spangling my brain, xxpost to myself, ffs

because one can be used to trace your parking tickets and you have to pay the other

"Actually I'm very, very, rich. Because I have a lot of good friends - both local and cyber. And that's all I need, and will ever need."

This particular line of reasoning otm, refusing to read further for fear of spoiling it all

some of the videos make it look like the police are being alerted to the existence of these eejits now

the first time i ever came across this phenofreemenon was regarding a parking ticket, dotty aul wan owned a crumbling mansion north roscommon way (great aul anglo/anglish country, that, all dotty as fuck) and she challenged me over the course of 15 scribbled pages to prove that she was a person and really there's nothing in the manual about that tbh

obv when i made my move into the great new excitement of property taxes in 2012 i recognised their workings immediately

the best lark is the stickers that, affixed to any notification/demand of payment, LEGALLY RENDER THEM NULL AND VOID

these genius little beauties basically say "nothing to do with me guv"

'Lawful' is what it is all about. 'Lawful' .vs. 'unlawful'. Do not get trapped into discussing 'legal'/'illegal'.

finest minds of our generation

ime they're still a huge improvement on the cult that sign their names with a big angel graphic

if i to guess which way the property developers went after the fall it's prob 30 legal route to freedom/40 freemen/30 angel cult

16. "I feel 'guilty', because I owe the money". No, you don't owe a damn thing! When taking out the loan, you were 'loaned' back what was yours in the first place. You created the 'money' when you signed the Loan or Credit Application. By doing so, YOU gave THEM a Negotiable Instrument called 'the money'. They cashed this in(*), and then used that to loan you back your own money. You don't owe a damn thing! THEY owe YOU - an apology at the very least - for applying this confidence trick on you - AND FOR CHASING YOU FOR SOMETHING YOU ALREADY GAVE THEM.

(* Actually they just could have walked away with your cash. But they didn't, because they are greedy, greedy, greedy, greedy. They knew they could get you to pay everything back, and also to pay them INTEREST on top of that. Thus they had already been paid in full ONCE when they cashed in on your money, took a risk by offering it back to you, and reckoned on being paid TWICE OR EVEN MORE via the 'interest'. Are you just beginning to feel slightly less sympathetic? If not, I don't know what else to say.

"Can this really be true?" Answer: Yes, because there is no other way. Banks are not allowed (by LAW) to lend Depositor's money (which is held by them 'in trust'). Loan Companies and Credit Card Companies (etc.) have no Deposit Money in the first place! Do they? So how else could they do it, then?)

now i like to think of myself as a literate, tolerably intelligent bloke but

by all means bring other comedy cults into the party, i was not aware of this angel stuff

The FBI considers "sovereign citizen extremists" to be part of a domestic terrorist movement

cogent approach this imo

Angry at you for sending me down a youtube rabbit hole when I really should be going to bed

suggest me a site i can draw a graphic online and post it and i'll show you- nothing coming up on google

Elizabeth Watson, aka Elizabeth of the Watson Family, who came to public attention in 2011 as a self-styled legal adviser in the Victoria Haigh child custody case, was given a nine-month suspended sentence for contempt of court. She had written "no contract" on court documents, denied the lawful authority of the proceedings, and used the "of the ..... family" format when referring to Ms Haigh and herself. (The custody case had concerned false allegations that the child's father was a paedophile.)[3]
Mark Bond, aka Mark of the Family Bond, a Norfolk, England odd-job man, was arrested in 2010 for non-payment of council tax, despite handing police a "notice of intent" stating that he was no longer a UK citizen. He told police that the notice had already been delivered to the Queen and the prime minister. He told the local paper: "Today I asked the judge to walk into the court under common law and not commercial law. If I had entered under commercial law it would prove that I accepted its law. I was denied my rights to go in there." He was sentenced to three months custody, suspended on condition that he pay off the debt at £20 a week.[4]
Bobby Sludds, appeared in court in County Wexford in Ireland charged with various motoring offences including two counts of no insurance. Before the police began to give evidence, the accused handed in a letter stating he was not Mr Sludds but Bobby of the family Sludds and questioning the use of the word 'person' in the charge. He was given two suspended sentences and a fine of €670. (He had 24 previous convictions for motoring offences.)[5]
Wilfred Keith Thompson and two others were arrested by police in Guelph, Ontario (Canada), charged with break, enter and theft as well as firearms offences. Thompson had previously made headlines for informing City Hall, local police, Guelph MP Frank Valeriote, Prime Minister Stephen Harper and other officials he is "an autonomous being not controlled by others". One of his co-defendants, Trevor “Red” De Block, refused to identify himself to the court, though it was said that his criminal mug shot, computer records, tattoos and other information confirmed his identity. "I object," De Block said, adding that he was not the "rightful owner" of his name, but refusing to clarify or participate in legal proceedings. "I don’t bow down to bail [sic] . . . to false gods," he said, and rejected assistance from the appointed lawyer. Thompson and De Block were denied bail.[6]
Dean Marshall, of Preston, East Riding of Yorkshire, England, was taken to court after he was found to be growing 26 cannabis plants in his garden shed. Claiming he was a Freeman on the Land and therefore not guilty, he then attempted to call up Queen Elizabeth II and David Cameron as his witnesses, although he was told that neither were available to attend. A jury at Hull Crown Court dismissed his claims and convicted him of conspiracy to produce cannabis for which he was given a 12-month prison sentence, suspended for two years, and was ordered to carry out 150 hours of unpaid work. [7]
Doug Jones, of Pembroke Dock, Wales, spent 22 days in prison after refusing to take a breath test. Jones questioned the authority and jurisdiction of the court, asking to see the judge's 'Oath of Office' which resulted in a sentence of fourteen days for contempt of court. He was sentenced to a further seven days after failing to attend a second hearing, but pleaded guilty to the original charges, receiving an endorsement on his driving license. His interest in the Freemen on the Land movement started after watching documentaries on conspiracy theories surrounding the 9/11 and 7/7 bombings. His solicitor, Phillipa Ashworth, stated “On this occasion, in hindsight he appreciates it was not the time to test out philosophical theories behind this approach to life, and in hindsight it isn’t something he would do again.”[8]
Gavin Kaylhem, of Grimsby, England, wilfully refused to pay his council tax debts of £1,268.54 accrued between 2001 and 2008 and was sentenced to 30 days imprisonment. He had claimed that he was a "Freeman" and thus had no contractual duty under Common Law to pay. He refused to co-operate with magistrates' questions.[9]

Oh yeah

ownership of the name

if we wrote out to these lads they sent us back in a charge of one pound of gold for use of their name, which they owned the rights to

great bunch of lads, tho. gave us many's the laugh, and never sent us dog shit or whatever

Dennis Larry Meads of Edmonton, Alberta, stormed out of a Court of Queen's Bench hearing on June 8, 2012, related to his divorce and matrimonial property case. In response, Associate Chief Justice John D. Rooke wrote a lengthy and comprehensive 185-page judgment rejecting various freemen claims, grouping them with other pseudolegal arguments as "Organized Pseudolegal Commercial Arguments" (OPCA), specifically, in this case, Meads' Freeman on the Land claims, arguments and documents,[11] saying that:
The bluntly idiotic substance of Mr. Mead’s argument explains the unnecessarily complicated manner in which it was presented. OPCA arguments are never sold to their customers as simple ideas, but instead are byzantine schemes which more closely resemble the plot of a dark fantasy novel than anything else. Latin maxims and powerful sounding language are often used. Documents are often ornamented with many strange marking and seals. Litigants engage in peculiar, ritual‑like in court conduct. All these features appear necessary for gurus to market OPCA schemes to their often desperate, ill‑informed, mentally disturbed, or legally abusive customers. This is crucial to understand the non-substance of any OPCA concept or strategy. The story and process of a OPCA scheme is not intended to impress or convince the Courts, but rather to impress the guru’s customer.[10] [emphasis in original]

thats the stuff judge

i am sort of mildly amused by them but mostly they are too stupid and po-faced to be delightful

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rodolphus_Allen_Family_Private_Trust

oh yeah i've dealt with these guys you'll want to read this

that lad from Preston in East Yorks, i wonder if he is one of the guys in that first vid i posted which also comes from round our way

i'm kind of amused how at some point (usually fairly early) in these shenanigans the police or court officials don't even bother explaining why the freeman is so wrong, they just bust out the handcuffs and violence inherent in the system

soref on the money tho i shd save this nonsense for tomorrow

tbf a powerful challenge to the very heart of the ruling system must be smacked down before the ring of truth be heard from every rooftop (repossessed)

If you think creating a Notice of Understanding and Intent and Claim of Right is the hard bit, then think again. You've only just begun, to quote a '60s song by The Carpenters.

lots of conspiracy stuff i find really boring but i love this sort of shit

when i say "love it" i don't mean like "i love crazy anti-semites" just i am entertained

I'm so excited that you have these people too! I thought it was an American peculiarity.

he then attempted to call up Queen Elizabeth II and David Cameron as his witnesses, although he was told that neither were available to attend.

l. ol. ol. ol.

i didn't realise at first that they originated in the US, the legal mumbo jumbo sounds like it wd be very nation-specific, but then i found out of course internet quackery mutates quickly enough

I'm a U.S. criminal defense lawyer, and I represented one of these guys. It was a hoot. He simply refused to accept reality as it solidified around him. Nice enough fellow, but batty as all get out.

From the OP:

Once you know the deception, and what the law actually is, you'll realise how the wool has been firmly and deliberately pulled over your eyes, your parent's eyes, and those of everyone you know.

Um, "everyone you know" is a pretty good definition of the society you live in, and coming up with a definition of "the law" that is at odds with the entire society you live in is as good a way as any to bring the judgment of that society down on your head. The law isn't some magic incantation known to the few, like Mephistopheles summoning the devil, and when you learn it you can command it to do your bidding.

Now see that's where you're wrong. All you have to do is refer to yourself in all caps and you can redeem your true self back from the government. That'll show 'em.

There is obviously some pathology involved here.

"troy ounce" is an excellent new wrinkle

pretty extreme response to junk mail, i just recycle it

Troy Ounce = Notting Hill drug dealer

alright martin amis

i think previous metals are always weighed in Troy ounces, but I'm not really sure about the difference (basing this on a trick question i heard once about what is heavier, an ounce of gold or an ounce of feathers?)

internet says it's about 10% more

chances are troy weight's equivalences were different for different metals in different regions, measurements pre-standardisation are wildly chaotic (even worse in pre-revolutionary france mind you)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobbit_(unit)

"Already in 1863, the hobbit was used as an example of the "customary confusion in our British weights and measures". An anonymous contributor to Charles Dickens's journal All the Year Round, arguing in favour of the decimal metric system, noted that[5]

"If (I buy wheat) at Wrexham, (I must order) by the hobbet of one hundred and sixty eight (pounds) (76 kg). But, even if I do happen to know what a hobbet of wheat means at Wrexham, that knowledge good for Flint is not good for Caernarvonshire. A hobbet of wheat at Pwlheli contains eighty-four pounds (38 kg) more than a hobbet at Wrexham; and a hobbet of oats is something altogether different; and a hobbet of barley is something altogether different again."

many of the 'pints' of beer I buy here in California are anything but

tbf no pints of beer in California or anywhere else in the US are actual pints

I hope that dipshit's house is egged constantly, pausing only for people knocking at his door and running away at random times.

don't forget dogshit through the letterbox

Well. today i learned

The pint is a unit of volume or capacity in both the imperial and United States customary measurement systems. In both of those systems it is traditionally one eighth of a gallon. The British imperial pint is about 20% larger than the American pint because the two systems are defined differently.

slightly less than 20% because US fluid ounces are bigger than UK fluid ounces

the british gallon is measured by the bladder capacity of the current monarch

hence to get royally bladdered

oh no wait, it's more than 20% because I'm bad at maths

UK fuiud ounces

lolololol

well if a US Gallon is 128 oz, and a quart is 32 oz, then a pint should be 16 oz

But there's a ton of U.S. 'pint' glasses that will easily be filled by a 12 oz bottle

xp tbf that is my position

it gets worse when a pint of whiskey is 375ml, gtfo with that shit, that's not much more than a half!

yeah, I like to buy Austrian gruner vetliner because they bottles are actual liters rather than 750mm

The sign is a master class in crank legal thinking.

jimbeaux as of now I decree that replying in this thread requires that you deliver me 1 troy ounce of gold

I will accept payment by registered carrier pigeon

spent a torturous new years eve attempting to disprove a fellas sincerely held view that a pint glass of cider is 500ml plus 68ml worth of ice

now youd have said that was easily disproven but id spent all day proving it and was getting worse at carrying out the practical demos as the year waned

sometimes in the US now they give you 16 oz & 20 oz options which I think takes this discrepancy into account?

and darragh I expect those two ounces by next Tuesday tyvm

xp I generally choose my battles, but I would derive great joy from hovering a small drone around this kook's yard

haha "I don't see anything about drones in the fine print"

you cauld call it the magna darta

*ahem*

"Vehicles manned or remotely operated"

You have to get up pretty early in the morning to get one past the Attorney in Fact.

wherein I reply that, in fact, my drone is not a 'vehicle' but a protected tool of self-expression (akin to a laser pointer), and therefore falls outside of this localized statute

he may own the land, but not the airspace a few feet above the garden

According to precedent, the property is his from the center of the earth to the upper limits of the atmosphere. All rights reserved.

If I remember correctly, there are actually some seminal court cases about planes trespassing over a property owner’s airspace (upshot: planes can fly over your suburban two-up two-down).

Sure, as long as they pay a fine of 100 ounces of iridium, avoirdupois.

Thought this revive was around the anniversary of what happened in my home state a year ago:

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-12-10/wieambilla-police-shootings-one-year-mccrow-arnold-dare-train/103086748

A school principle, and his brother who was now married to his divorced wife (also a public school employee) executing two police and a neighbour, injuring two other police, for stepping onto their property. The police were following up a missing persons report on the principle.

I went down the rabbithole of this when it happened, finding their online posting and seeing conspiracy sites scrub their forum and news posts in real time the same day the events happened. Depressing. A man was just arrested in Arizona for inciting the shooting, close contact, celebrating them right after their deaths for taking down the demons of the new world order

Sure, as long as they pay a fine of 100 ounces of iridium, avoirdupois.

Airspace, like territorial waters, is purely a sovereignty issue, so you can see why it would attract sovcit types to try to assert it as their sovereign domain.

what about tunneling and burrowing around under their houses?

Property rights extend subsurface.

How far down though?

To the start of the Devonian.
