    If this dude registered as a Sovereign Citizen, he would have been fine!

    I’ll show you:

    Police: “What’s in the bag? Does that say ‘no drugs’ on it??”

    SovCit: “I never entered into a contract with you!”

    Police: Snatches bag and starts digging.

    SovCit: “Neither the individual nor the STRAW MAN contracted with —- please stop!”

    Police: Tackles SovCit

    SovCit: “I swear this bag is not from the TRUSTEE or the STRAW MAN. It ain’t my bag. Do you have a claim against me because I’m — bro, maritime laws!!”

    Hmm… I guess this doesn’t work out after all.

      You forgot the part where they yelled “Without prejudice!” and signed their bag in blue ink at a 45° angle.

          You should also say/yell “I do not consent!”, because it’s illegal to search or arrest someone without their consent. It was a popular spell a few years ago, but I don’t see it being used much anymore, so it’s possible that the cops have found a counterspell. 😉

      I am just transporting a bag. The contents are not officially licensed to be regulated by the state.
