Here’s the latest reader question, along with my reply! (It’s not actually a question, but it’s well-worth publishing!)
Anonymous writes: I struck a minor blow for the good guys last night. I eluded an armed government worker! Yes! Here’s the story:
When I went out to eat last night, I took the long way there. I wanted to get out of the house for a bit, and my Focus needed some exercise. I was on 519 in Jersey doing 65-70 in a 50. A NJSP SUV passed me going the other way. I was like, “Oh, shit!” Not only was I “speeding,” I was technically breaking the house arrest. About 1/4 mile or so behind me, I saw him slow and start turning around. I’d seen that before and I knew he was coming for me. I slowed down a bit, but not much. A few seconds later, I saw a side road; I turned off, hid, and bought myself some time to figure out my next move. I came upon another road I know, turned on it, and took a different way to Taco Bell. It was a rush… 🙂
My reply: Excellent!
It’s time to stop submitting. Which can be done by avoiding. Just as you would avoid any ordinary thief or thug. Government costumed thieves and thugs are no different. We have a right – and arguably, a duty – to try to get away from those who would do us violence. The more of us who refuse to meekly cooperate in our destruction, the greater they chances we will destroy tyranny rather be encompassed by it.
Tally ho!

In MI, a BUNCH of cows kicked! Get a load of this: https://www.yahoo.com/gma/michigan-rally-against-shelter-place-order-spills-capitol-193513207–abc-news-topstories.html
And the spin is that the protesters are a bunch of privileged white selfish ignorant gun nuts. We need to tighten up gun controls, etc…
The clovers are begging for a (more overt) police state (than we already have) judging by the commentary.
Welcome to the ninth ring of hell.
If the shutdowns aren’t lifted soon, there will be HELL to pay. They say that the most dangerous thing in this world is a man with nothing left to lose. I beg to differ; the most dangerous thing in the world is MILLIONS with nothing left to lose! Every day that things remain shut down is another day where thousands more people have nothing left to lose.
Think about it. People have been out of work for weeks. They’re running out of money if they haven’t already. They can’t buy food. They can’t pay their bills. They can’t make the car payment. They can’t pay the rent or mortgage. If the shutdown isn’t lifted soon, who could blame people for using the 2A for its INTENDED purpose? These authoritarian politicians are playing with fire; if they’re not careful, they’ll get burned!
My point is that there is anger and resistance building out there. Just in MI, this is the 2nd time in a week or so where protesters stormed the capitol complex. We need to cheer these people on! It’s the only way we’ll get our freedom back…
Agreed. You can lead a horse to water but it won’t drown unless you hold it’s head under.
Just wait until the hyperinflation hits.
I hope hyperinflation doesn’t hit; EVERYONE will be screwed then! Even those with money will be screwed…
Stopped to fill up my tank today while gas is still “cheap”- It was up twenty cents since three days ago!
Well done!
I just was referred to a website from LewRockwell.com that has a great section on Traffic Stops.

Please follow the link and read up… but here is what I got out of it:
Basically you copy below, paste into a text app, print, keep in the car and hand over during a AGW stop after asserting your 5th amendement right to stay silent.
NOTICE TO ALL LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS, SUPERVISORS AND COMMANDERS
1) I hereby invoke and refuse to waive all rights afforded me by the United States Constitution and the Constitution of
any State or territory in which any incident of law enforcement against me may occur.
2) I hereby invoke and refuse to waive my 5th Amendment right to remain silent and not be a witness against myself by
speech or by action.
3) I hereby invoke and refuse to waive my 6th Amendment right to have assistance of counsel. Do not ask me
questions without my attorney present.
4) I hereby invoke and refuse to waive my 4th amendment right to be free of unwarranted (non court-ordered) search
and seizure. Your personal suspicions are not legal grounds for search, seizure or arrest unless supported by a court
order or tangible evidence of an imminent and known crime (misdemeanor or felony) of which I am a likely
perpetrator (“Probable Cause”).
5) I hereby deny consent for my detention and I hereby request to be immediately released from custody, arrest and
detention, free to continue my private travels and business as is my right.
6) Any failure or refusal by you or your associates to affirmatively, actively and expressly honor any of the above
reservations of rights may be criminal violations and/or may cause unjust damage to me and my interests in which
case, by your commission of unauthorized actions, you will and do agree to major personal debt and obligation to me
for both remedy of, and penalty for, your violations and misconduct and you agree to pay all monetary claims on
demand.
7) If you do not release me immediately upon reading this notice I will presume you to be under the impression that you
have authority and jurisdiction for my arrest for a crime (infractions are not crimes and consent must be obtained
from the accused for any detention for an alleged infraction). If it should be shown at any time that you do not have
full authority, cause and jurisdiction for my arrest you will be subject to civil and criminal penalty and obligated to
major remedy to me. You agree to those terms by committing any unlawful or unauthorized force, command,
detention or arrest against me.
8) If you fail to release me upon presentation of this notice you will be required at a time in the future to show cause for
any non-consensual detention (arrest). Your failure to show cause and jurisdiction upon demand will cause major
debt and obligation of you to me for all damages, losses, harm, injuries and violations of rights, in addition to possible
civil and criminal actions, allegations and reports against you personally.
9) Under arrest and threat of violence by you and your armed law enforcement associates I will, under protest, be
compliant and not resist any command you may issue unless I find it necessary to act in defense of my health and
safety or the health and safety of others present as is allowed by law. I am competent to determine when acts of self
defense are, and are not, necessary and justified. Unless you unjustly and/or unlawfully assault or commit battery
upon me I pose no threat or danger to you or your associates.
10) I have no intention to interfere with any law enforcement activity or objective and I have no intention to become
“belligerent” or “agitated” or to cause any difficulty or hindrance to your authorized and legally compliant law
enforcement activity. I will not be “provoked” unless you are provoking me with hostile threats and actions. I am not
in protest or opposition against your office, your profession or any of your lawful actions. I am in protest only of your
violations of my rights, if there are any, and of your misconduct, if there is any.
11) Since I have and do rightfully deny consent for detention (above), by law you must now either release me or place
me under arrest with cause, jurisdiction and proper process. In law, there is no such thing as “forced detention”.
Detention is voluntary, arrest is forced. I request that you, at this time, clearly state under the above invocations of
rights, one of the following as you are required by law: Am I “free to go” or am I “under arrest”. If you seek my lawful
detention you must now declare my arrest and show cause and jurisdiction.
12) If I am under arrest I refer you to the invocations of rights above. My cooperation and compliance may not, in any
way, be interpreted as waiver of any rights at any time. My actions, while under threat of force and violence by law
enforcement are under duress and, to avoid the violent potential of your armed presence I will comply with your
directives and sustain limited personal disruption in the process to hold you accountable later. In any question of my
compliance and cooperation, refer to the declarations and invocations above.
13) Notice to principal is notice to agent and notice to agent is notice to principal.
Jay Ramey, a defense attorney out of OK, has a series of YouTube videos on this. He teaches the same things, but in a shorter, easier to understand format. Go to YouTube, and search for Jay Ramey or Jay Ramey Law…
Time to stop submitting is right!
