Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI got a big WTF and question
So driving home from work I stop behind another vehicle and it looks like a paper temp plate. Closet I see:
No license no insurance and some drivel about right to travel?
I immediately call local highway enforcement dispatch tells me after I pass information this has become an issue here lately.
Any others seem this?

(62,444 posts)It is a malignant branch of "you don't have to pay the income tax" school of thought that's been around since the beginning of the federal income tax at least.
They should claim it as their religion, and they'd get wider support from sympathetic crazy people.

https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch/2017/03/21/sovereign-citizen-christopher-byrne-indicted-federal-crimes
Christopher Byrne, a felon and self-proclaimed sovereign citizen was indicted by a federal court on March 8, 2017 He is charged with illegally possessing weapons and ammunition, which police discovered when they pulled him over in a mall parking lot in Greenwood, Indiana.
Byrne was in a vehicle with a non-state issued license plate that read: PRIVATE, No driver license or insurance required, and Not for commerce-private mode of travel, terms commonly used by sovereign citizens. Byrne refused to provide a license or identification to the officers and claimed he was a sovereign national.
During a search of his automobile police found a loaded rifle, 100 rounds of ammo and an extended clip. They also discovered waters bottles filled with bleach and ammonia, ingredients that can be used to make a bleach bomb.
Police arrested Byrne for habitually violating traffic regulations. This is any person who, within a 10-year period, accumulates two judgments resulting in injury or death.
Law enforcement also suspected Byrne of planning to perpetrate an act of domestic terrorism. They initially assumed his target was Greenwood Mall, but now suspect that police themselves were his real target.
