If you officially revoke your citizenship and continue to live here, you will be considered an illegal alien.

The subject of this thread isn't about sovereign citizens more than its about reality vs imaginary,
BUT LIKE I SAID, IF YOU ARE SOVEREIGN, YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO ANSWER TO THE CONSTITUTION!

Also, again, an actual sovereign has authority recognized by others.
You are only sovereign insofar as you can enforce and defend your will.
Just because you WANT something to be so or think it should be so, doesn't make it so.

You mean like the difference between a flesh and blood human being and a legal fiction called a corporation?

I don't have to answer to it. It has nothing to do with me personally. It is a list of delegated governmental powers and prohibitions on government actors.

Yes, but you can remove the word "corporation" and change it to anything else you like, "government" "organization" "group" "corporation".

Hear #ing hear. Now we're talking and in agreeance. I always said the constitution is literally a piece of paper that tells you what your limitations are in a game. The Declaration of Independence on the otherhand, is one of the most riveting documents ever made. A *LOT* of people gloss over the words of our Declaration of Independence without letting them fully digest in their brains. "Endowed, by their creator." the truest words ever spoken.

I will add some of my own understanding on this argument.
Sovereign citizen can have multiple meanings legally because the word citizen and person can be defined by the legal document it is used within.
It's original intent, sovereign without subjects, comes from the ideals expressed from the Magne Carte.
But when you consider the last 150 years and the emergence of the USA Inc. from the Organic Act you see the same words used but with the corporate aspect attached.
There were agreements and treaties in 1872 that agreed to the exemptions and arbitration but mostly to the creditors favor which the discussions pertained to.
We lost the original Constitutional liberties for that time period.
But now that the corporation is dissolved worldwide it looks like our actual sovereignty is returning and our Constutional liberties.
But to be sovereign also brings responsibility and accountability.
The corporate structure certainly greased the supply chains and things like eating got fairly easy for long enough to make us complacent.
The present food inflation combined with the soon happening severe rise in food is actually a good thing.
Anti-sovereign behavior and example of complacency:
All the trees and shrubs are architectural in nature.
None of them planted for food.
As a starter every elementary school yard should have trees that provide food for hungry children.
And a garden too.

That's not sovereign mentality and void of accountability.
It is....
Slave mentality.

Imagine if millions of citizens without a criminal record withdraw their consent to be governed by criminals...
Who would be under arrest?
