    The fact that someone saw this pseudo-17th-century style legalese and thought “this looks legit”, is just wild to me.

    This is the kind of thing you perform when role-playing a colonial-era barrister for laughs. Which would be weird, but it would at least make sense.

    Anyway, this reads kind of like an attempt to (somehow) opt-out from participating in, well, citizenship (sovereign citizen?). But while retaining the right to stay put. But not as an alien. But then using US law to assert they are not lying, in every version of the US across the entire multiverse (“in all dimensions”)

        It’s utterly atrocious for style but I still can’t wrap my brain around the legal word salad this dude threw out there.

        Does anyone know what this is even for? Like…I’m pretty sure you have to volunteer for surety in any form, because it’d be pretty weird if the court could ORDER another person to shove their money into a deal they hadn’t somehow otherwise agreed to.

        …and…the statutes and codes are statues and codes… Isn’t color of law is involved when an official is doing something that appears to be official but may not be?

        Like, statutes and codes can’t be the SEMBLANCE of law…they ARE the fucking law?

        How can you claim to not be under the law and then certify something under penalty of perjury UNDER THE FUCKING LAWS YOU JUST SAID HAVE NO JURIS-MY-DICTION OVER YOU?!?

        If this was chanted in unison by a few people at once, it’d resemble a bad tv show witch’s “spell”.

          Sounds like a child support suit. Plenty of judges have ordered people to shove their money into a deal they don’t believe they agreed to.

            Isn’t it quite a coincidence how so many sovcits seem to be in custody cases? Weird.

      It’s kinda funny how he simultaneously has no faith in the institution of the United States but also has full faith to the point where he thinks that they’ll just take his words at face value.
