btw do people really belive that it's okay to sell alcohol to a child, because the law making it an offence to do so is written in the statute book and therefore you can choice whether or not you want to be bound by it?
And what about rape? Or child molestation? You really beleive you can do anything you want without punishment?
That you are above all the laws?

You know what is right and what is wrong ?

A statute is NOT a law, it is a piece of written LEGISLATION with the FORCE OF LAW should the person who is governed GIVE THEIR CONSENT TO THAT STATUTE!!

COMMON LAW must be obeyed at all times, in other words they are laws that guarantee Human Rights that make it a crime to hurt a human or cause another human loss, but STATUTE is what Governments make, and the only reason Governments exist is because the average person ALLOWS THEM THROUGH CONSENT!!

LOOK IN A DICTIONARY OF LAW ... the Law and Statutes are even given totally different LEGAL TERMS!

Indeed... I have argued to dealt the idiot "Freemen" in the US orientated threads, where they harp on about going back to "English Common Law" as if it is some mystical and long forgotten time where everyone was free and pink bunnies bounced through meadows...
Basically it boils down to a catastrophic intellectual failure in understanding law at all. In it's most basic form, Common Law is case law, set by precident and Statute Law is one produced by the legislative, which itself is then subject to interpretation by the Courts (in the UK at least), which sets precedent leading to a common law interpretation of the statute.
And I have no idea why the OP thinks the Government is a legal "company", it's a logical fallacy if anything. By what law was the Government (which creates law) created, if it is "legal"?

In the list of the 160 million or so businesses worldwide, this country is registered as a company, as are the Prime Minister, the diplomat Alistair Darling, The Prime Minister, the Courts, the Military, the Police, the NHS ... everything ... al registered as private limited companies ... need I go any further to prove you wrong?

Some interesting information here, watched the video's but a little unsure how anyone can use the information practically in a real life situation, if you refuse to acknowledge the statues as having governance over you those then same statutes offer you no protection either
Will have to look into this a lot more I think

I understand what you are saying, but you have missed my point, when I mean protection, I mean protection by law, for example you say we can grow on common law land, so I plant my food there, they remove it, what can I do to stop them? Nothing, I have no legal redress, I cannot take them to court because if I do I automatically reinsert myself back into that system, I have to acknowledge that that particular legal system has authority over the decision, over me, it is a catch 22 system
If they come and lock you up, who do you have to defend you?, by trying to address the court, any court whether that be in the UK or the EU I have to acknowledge the authority of that court and uphold its decision, do you see my point?
I do not disagree with the information in the OP, I just cannot see any practical way we as an individual can utilize it to our benefit without the whole of society also adopting it, this is why I said I need to loo into it more, to see if there is any useful application for this knowledge
