Main thread for Ed and Elaine Brown vs the evil IRS

[LordBaltimore]

You have to understand that a lot of the 'patriot' community is religious. They are NOT libertarians. However, they feel the same way you do about the overly confiscatory practices of government.

So it's only natural that since they likely fear death at this point, they are talking about God.

If it gives them strength why do you denigrate it? I can't believe anyone would criticize them on that at a time like this. They are not about to take a cyanide pill either, since that's considered a sin I imagine.

If I thought the government was about to blow me up I think I'd suddenly be praying too....geesh.

Ed's and Elaine's new religious isn't just about God.  They claim to have Queen Elizabeth's private number and that she is secretly calling the shots in the Illuminati conspiracy against them.  All books except the four hand picked by "Sonny" should be burned. 

And if you think that Ed claiming that the Ten Commandments and God are telling him to kill a judge's children is going to help the Libertarian movement, you're incorrect.

Rich, where are you getting this from?

they have her personal number? How?

Authorities clearly were prepared for the worst Thursday. Vehicles leaving a checkpoint early in the afternoon included an armored Massachusetts SWAT vehicle, an explosive disposal unit, a communications truck and a New Hampshire state police cruiser driven by someone with camouflage face paint.

Yeah, they were just serving a warrant.  I believe them, how about you?

Where did you read this? This is the first I heard of this...

The live broadcast is implying that the Feds encircled the dentists office, it doesn't sound like they are laying seige to the house.

[DadaOrwell]

[Quantrill]

That's what they're saying. The feds have seized it in order to pay the back taxes they claim the Browns owe.

[Recumbent ReCycler]

I'm glad that the Browns are OK.  We prayed for them as soon as we found out about the incident.

[troy from wv]

Those douchebags need to pay their taxes.

Who the hell are they to get away w/out paying their taxes?

[LordBaltimore]

Rich, where are you getting this from?

I listen to the radio show semi-regularly (about two times a week.)

Sonny has it written down in his personal Bible.

[citizen_142002]

The court ruled that their real property was forfeit. I tuned in during the middle of the broadcast and that's how I'm hearing it.

I have to say a lot of these callers are raving lunatics, and I'm really hoping none of them do anything stupid. The last thing America needs is another Oklahoma City. If these Patriots are so bent on going to force of arms then they ought to jump in the pickup and head to Plainfield. There is an honorable way to do it. But what they are talking about ain't it.
A lot of those folks are ranting about taking down the economy and mounting a corrila war. Of course I'd say 95% plus of them are just wind bags.

I don't really want a guerrilla war. But I wouldn't mind delivering a cell phone or 10 to the Browns.
