Main thread for Ed and Elaine Brown vs the evil IRS, Part 13

[LordBaltimore]

now the gestapo is saying that anyone who aids the browns will be prosecuted.

When did they say that?

[Quantrill]

Geez.  The article kept referring to Ed's home as a "compound".  Where have we heard that term before?

I wonder how many feds are going to volunteer to help arrest the Brown's?  They know that he has no intention of going without a fight.  Those guys are probably peeing their pants at the thought of arresting him. 

Good.

wmur channel 9 news at 6 pm.

What did they say, and who said it?  The video on the WMUR website doesn't have anything like that???

[lastlady]

The feds don't scare me.

Live Free or Die!!!

A free man can say what they want, defend who they want, support whomever they choose to support. They do not own me.

They should know we will not back down EVER!!!!!

...Marshals Service sent out a warning to them as well.

"Anyone rendering assistance aid or comfort to the Browns in their continuing effort to obstruct justice and avoid apprehension maybe be subject to arrest or prosecution and certainly anyone now that they are convicted felons that provides the browns with weapons or ammunition is committing a separate felony," Monier said.

What efforts to obstruct justice?

[TackleTheWorld]

In addition to the 63 months for both Ed and Elaine,
they were ordered to pay $44K from their office building and $27K from their home. 

The 3 year probation described included

• opening their financial records
• submitting DNA samples (Under the "Justice For All" act)
• allowing searches of their home, car, office
• warning occupants of their home, car, office that they may be searched


Sheesh, death may not be the worst of fates.

What efforts to obstruct justice?

Good point: what justice?

Monier needs to learn that this isn't war, and "aid and comfort (to the enemy?)" doesn't apply. No one who is supporting the Browns is helping them to be fugitives. Monier knows exactly where they are; people standing on the road waving Gadsden flags are hardly helping to hide Ed and Elaine.

It's "Live free or die: Death is not the worst of evils."

Oooh... scary!

Considering that I "maybe be subject to arrest or prosecution" at any time for whatever reason based on the whims of cops and bureaucrats, what has changed?

[Dave Ridley]

Well I guess someone could always call the Marshalls and inform them they're going to be taking a quarter-ounce jolly rancher to ed as aid and comfort, tell them when and what their vehicle looks like so they'd be easier to arrest.  Find out if they'd like to lock you up for that.

"They've acted as if they're above the law," Assistant U.S. Attorney Bill Morse said


LOL what law?


when do you think the pigs will try and take them?

[cyberdoo78]

I think they will be waited out, like the Freemen were. However the Browns have more support then the Freemen had, from the readings I have seen. I personally want to meet these wonderful people and join them in their fight once I get there. Hopefully they will still be free when I get there in December.

[penguins4me]

I was under the impression that the Browns have a goodly amount of necessities kept at their home. However, regardless of the amount, it will not last them forever, and so I ask: do the Browns have friends who are able to keep them supplied with anything they may not already have or run out of? ... and on that note, I hope the Browns were able to keep some liquid financial assets somewhere outside the reach of the sticky-fingered IRS et al.
It only seems all the more crazier when you come to the realization that, some trivial details aside, the gov't is wrong. :/

People going in and out of there make supply runs irregularly.

To stop that, they would have to lay siege to the property.

One of the articles suggested that the government was making "special plans" to take the Browns.
