On 60 Minutes last night

I just meant the one guy that went crazy and killed two LEO was in foreclosure proceedings and was also in the process of teaching his scam of trying to delay the process.

Nothing wrong with being broke but then he started teaching his scam to others and charging them as well and breaking various laws along the way.

It wasn't just the guy, but his son that murdered the officers. At the boy's age I do not believe being broke places that much pressure on a kid's mental well being. Certainly not enough to claim insanity or diminished capacity.

^- this exactly

I worked in hollyweird in the mid to late 80's and a couple producers and directors I met were sovereigns. However, they had trust accounts set up to cover any mayhem they might cause with their cars. They even retained lawyers who oversaw their situations. They were a trip to talk with...

The one guy I asked had a pamphlet prepared for in case he got pulled over. He claimed he'd never been, so I had no idea how well that went over with local LEOs.

I have to admit; this last idea was attractive. They set up non profits so they had charities that benefitted from their income (instead of just paying taxes, they had a means for choosing how to benefit the community around them).

Anywaze, that's my impression of the handful of sovereigns I met.
