/r/amibeingdetained is a subreddit devoted to showcasing the idiocy and ignorant behaviour of the self-proclaimed freemen on the land and sovereign citizens. The phrase "Am I being detained?" is a reference to a common catch-phrase used by these movements.

/r/amibeingdetained is a subreddit devoted to showcasing the idiocy and ignorant behaviour of the self-proclaimed freemen on the land and sovereign citizens. The phrase "Am I being detained?" is a reference to a common catch-phrase used by these movements.

According to Wikipedia, Freemen on the Land are people who claim that all statute law is contractual, and that such law is applicable only if an individual consents to be governed by it. They believe that they can therefore declare themselves independent of government jurisdiction, holding that the only "true" law is common law, as they define it. The "Freeman on the land" movement has its origins in various United States-based groups in the 1970s and 1980s, reaching Ireland and the United Kingdom soon after 2000. The FBI considers those sovereign citizen extremists who tag themselves "Freemen" to be a domestic terrorist movement.

Essentially, these people believe that the law which governs them is the law they create themselves. Subsequent to becoming a freemen on the land, one will eventually discover that their philosophy has no merit in the court of law and that their shenanigans are laughed at as they are posted on websites such as YouTube.

While other subreddits are devoted to hating police and authority figures, this subreddit is in the interest of those who want to laugh at the spastic civilians on the other side of the policing spectrum.

Rules:

  • No fighting, hating, or abusing other people. Keep it friendly.
  • Don't stray away from the theme of idiotic civilians and freemen on the land; irrelevant posts are not welcome.

If you have any questions, just message the moderators. Please report any posts or comments that are against the rules. Thanks for viewing this subreddit, and please feel free to subscribe.

why don't these people every try things that might actually work?

don't want registration/tags? "Farm use only" - you're bringing it in to the mechanic today or you're selling it to someone in town.

No license? You're a native from the local tribe

don't want to ID yourself? you forgot your ID today and use a pseudonym that you know will return a clean record

It's not that hard, so why do they do this crazy ring around the rosey instead of using potentially effective strategies?

Just watching Bosch Season 6 on Amazon. Part of the season deals with SovCits. It’s edited for television but the same BS drivel comes out just in an abridged version.

Chille asked his sycophants to flood Judge Zimmerman with "petitions" for his release, attacked her character, and threatened to sue her. The Las Vegas AntiTerrorism Squad visited him. He posted another attack on the judge over that.
