Hi, I'm new here.
It's GREAT to know / flex your rights, of course. As a member of any society, it's important to know how best to stand up against bullying, intimidation and harassment, ESPECIALLY from people who claim to be authorities.
Knowing the Common Law / Civil Law distinction seems to be very effective in a harassment-preventative context. However, having scoured the youtubery, I observe very little adherence to it from the police when they consider a law (inc. acts & statutes) has actually been violated.
Twenty minutes of abstract cross-talking usually leads to an arrest, and the filmer gives his/her opinion about the corruption of the state blah blah blah.
There are plenty of videos which show how to get the police to leave you alone when you aren't really doing anything and they just want to control you. Again, this is GREAT.
But, I've never seen this Common Law / Freeman distinction actually stop any law enforcement from taking control of a situation where they consider the law has been violated.
Am I right? Am I wrong?
Can we get a highlight reel going in this thread?
