Protesting the Wrong Way: 'Sovereign Citizen' Misunderstandings in the USA.

Many people think the government is corrupt and have fair reason for believing so. However, not all reactions or views on this corruption are from a place of reason. This is a difference between reason as a selected basis or foundation and reason as something thought out and wise. Not all of our reasons are actually reasoned. Some people grab a hold of fantasies and conspiracy theories while being manipulated by false information. This leads them to falsified foundations and unreasonable choices. They have their reasons and they are demonstrably bad reasons.
Back in the 1950s, there was abuse of power that came out of the end of WWII. Parts of it reached back to the times of slavery. This caused the much needed expansion of the Civil Rights Movement. At the same time, it spawned other groups that drifted into conspiracy theories and wild claims. They want another revolution, to not pay taxes, to put forward their own view on law, and, in extreme cases, to overthrow the government.
However, many of them are talking about this based on fraudulent information. There are books that promote this action. In there, I have found supposed court citations that 'prove' their point on government. These are fake or heavily edited. They are lies. They are deceiving the people that join them who do not realize they are reading fraudulent claims supported by trash.
Anyone who supports and practices what is commonly known as the Sovereign Citizen Movement can expect to face fines, jail time, and worse.
If you want to hear my opinion on how and why this happens, and why I feel they are wrong, keep reading.
