Those who see their lives as spoiled and wasted crave equality and fraternity more than they do freedom. If they clamor for freedom, it is but freedom to establish equity and uniformity. The passion for equality is partly a passion for anonymity: to be one thread of many which make up a tunic; one thread not distinguishable from the others. No one can then point us out, measure us against others and expose our inferiority.
They who clamor the loudest for freedom are often the ones least likely to be happy in a free society. The frustrated, oppressed by their shortcomings, blame their failure on the existing restraints. Actually their innermost desire is for an end to the "free for all." They want to eliminate free competition and the ruthless testing to which the individual is continually subjected in a free society.
Where freedom is real, equality is the passion of the masses. Where equality is real, freedom is the passion of the small minority.
Equality without freedom creates a more stable social pattern than freedom without equality.

Yes, I understand the concept of being a free man, I just don't understand how it works legally.
He can denounce society and normal law doesn't apply any more. Can anybody just do that?
Is this a particular law or set of rights that allows for this?
I'm just curious.

So when it's the law to take vaccines, you're going to take it? So when it's the law to be chipped, your gonna be chipped? So when it's the law to spy on your neighbour, you're gonna be a rat? Dont you see the pattern that going on.. Our freedoms are being systematically taken away. You seem like an intelligent man. The freeman society is all about love and respect.. It's about a peacefull coexistance. The law states that they can walk in your house for no reason. Is that what you're defending?

Yes I understand that everyone has the right to drive. Also everyone has a right to safety and that's exacltly why you need a license. It is proof that you know the rules and laws that are on the roads.
If this guy is driving around without a license then we have no idea if he is impaired or even knows how to drive. By driving without a license this guy is actually going against his own principle of not breaching anyone elses peace by endangering others.
Also what I don't understand is that why would there be some kind of verbal trap that he has to say the word drive? His actions speak louder than his words and if he were to say that he isn't driving he'd be lying. Do mute people get same exception to laws?

Did I misunderstand the video or did the guy say that he was travelling and not driving? How was he travelling? The car magically moves forward when he sits in it? You could come up with a new term and say I wasn't driving, I was sdfsdfsldf'ing. That still doesn't make the fact go away that you were driving. They have him on the police dashcam driving the car and that is way more valid than his word that he wasn't driving.

Being licensed does not mean one is a safe driver or that one knows the "laws". There are plenty of unsafe, law-ignorant drivers on the roads. If that isn't evident, i don't know what to say.
Not at all. By stating this, you show that you do not in any way understand the concept. These 'freemen' understand that with freedom comes responsibility. They would never travel on the common way without being responsible enough to ensure they are doing so in a safe manor. They would never let their children behind the wheel without ensuring they would do so in a safe manor. Individual responsibility is the conjoined twin of freedom. You cannot have the latter without the former. They are in no way 'endangering' anyone.
Because in law, words have very specific meanings. In law, 'driving' is a commercial activity. If he admits to 'driving', he concedes to be subject to commercial driving statutes (what you call driving laws). The exact opposite of what you claim is true. If he admits to driving, he would in fact be lying. He was not engaged in any commerical activity. So, why would he claim to be engaged in commerce when he wasn't & why would he want to subject himself to statutes that regulate a commercial activity when all he was doing was travelling?

Oh boy. For those looking into the Freeman idea, AVOID this guy, Tim Turner & avoid the UCC argument. It is a hoax.
What evidence do you have of a hoax? TT is one of the guardian elders of the Restore America Plan.
