    I like how he cares about the paperwork for the gun, but the paperwork for the car is easily bipassed by magic SovCit jargon.

    It’s fun to laugh at sovcits and I know we’re dealing with unreliable narrators, but I think there’s some legitimacy to this person’s objections about their treatment by police. Trying to seize the gun in TX is a big one to me.

      It’s been a long time since I had to deal with texas laws about firearms, but I think there is a clause about having a handgun/firearm while in commission of another crime. Yup, here’s the relevant one. Then there’s the plate one which is what triggers that ‘other than… Class C’ part of the first one, since having a fictitious plate is a Class B.

      So basically, the seizure they’re doing is legal, although as we all know, *cough cough*, legal ain’t always right.

    I told my kids to…

    Surprise! Kids in the car got to see their father get his just deserts. Officers may have even made a CPS report, as a cherry on top. Sovereign Citizens love CPS cases, I’ve heard.

      Yeah man those kids are gonna think cops are the good guys after seeing them fuck up their dad over

      A fucking speeding ticket.

      Cops could have just given him a ticket and let him go.

        Can’t give someone a ticket when they refuse to give you their name and DOB. Know your rights, and hold the police accountable, but if you intentionally antagonize and resist the police when they make a very basic and very legal request, you’re immediately on the hook for more charges.

          Yes, you can. You ticket the registered owner. This is how parking tickets work.

              Right. In this case, it might not have worked. But my point was that the statement that you can’t give someone a ticket without first getting their personal info is incorrect.

                A moving violation and a parking ticket are totally different things. A speeding ticket is a criminal offense while a parking ticket (with rare exception) is a civil offense. The police absolutely cannot issue a speeding ticket without ascertaining your identity, and if you refuse to identify yourself, you will end up in jail while they work it out.
