What is a sovereign citizen?
American Sovereign citizens believe that the laws of the United States do not apply to them. Therefore, no authority should tell them what to do: not judges, lawmakers, lawyers, or police officers. Oh, and they don't pay taxes either.
Sounds crazy, right? It would be crazy if they didn't get away with it so often.
