14 You represent a system of government seen as bankrupt, corrupt, oppressive, illegitimate, deceptive and invalid. You are a means by which this government will impose its will against its citizens. I m not bound by your laws as I have cancelled my contract with your government. I am not a 14 th Amendment citizen, I am a free soul upon the earth.

15 Sovereign Citizen (SC) activity typically involves criminal behavior that is generally non-violent but may lead to violent encounters with Law Enforcement Officers by the more extremist adherents. We re going to talk about some of the indicators that may signal that you have encountered a SC and that additional precautions should be used.
