I came here out of concern for my country. People from 15 states want to leave the union. If you get a mouse in your house, do you just up and move? Yes, we have more than a mouse. We are infested with many, many large rats. But the home owners are even too ignorant to set one single trap. The fact is, we are free. But out of our own ignorance we fall directly into the trap set by the rats. This is the trap. You are only "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" (referring to federal jurisdiction) because you have said so. You claimed it on your SS form to get a social security card. When you check United States citizen you are indicating that you are subject to the jurisdiction thereof. The definition of citizen of the United States is in the 14th amendment: All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the state wherein they reside. There are two aspects that make you a citizen NOT JUST ONE. Now look up Title 18 section 7 in the US code. It defines the territorial jurisdiction of the United States. Read it, it is only 1 1/2 pages and it says three times, "out of the jurisdiction of any particular state". But they will take you at YOUR word if you claim to be one.
Welcome to the forums!
What happens when one hen escapes from the hen-house. Does the farmer let it roam freely? Although I see value in repeating ad nauseum these points about sovereignty as you simultaneously work on rejecting their authority outright, I think it's naive to think that just because you found a loophole they will shrug their shoulders and grin, "you got us!"
