17. You missed a better one

Because lawyers use the title Esquire (for reasons known to them), they are officers of the British Crown. Also, the word "Bar" (as in Bar Association, State Bar and other lawyers' groups) really means British Accredited Registry.

Worse, you can't talk these people out of this nonsense.

Even more fun is the Right to Travel nonsense. You can find it on sites like https://wearechange.org/u-s-supreme-court-says-no-license-necessary-to-drive-automobile-on-public-highwaysstreets/

Apparently, according to sovereign citizens, the Supreme Court has ruled that you don't need a driver's license. The first case they always quote is Thompson v. Smith, a 1930s-era Virginia Supreme Court case. None of them have ever actually read Thompson, because the sentence after the one they quote says the state has the right to require drivers to be licensed. This whole BS list of cases was written by one Rodney Skurdal, menial laborer (seriously...he works as a "general laborer" in a junkyard) and Montana Freeman. What happens when Mr. Skurdal actually tried his schtick?

"It is a proper exercise of the State's police power to require a valid driver's license...appellant's assertion that the right to travel encompasses the unrestrained use of the highway is wrong."
