What a stupid thing to argue over.

They didn't pay their taxes. If they don't like the taxes go out and vote for someone who will get rid of them. If you don't pay your taxes you lose your shit. Simple as that.

I don't understand getting mad at law enforcement officers who are clearly not abusing their power in this situation. They didn't CHOOSE to be there, they were sent there to do a job. Put yourself in their shoes. What would you do if some crazy hick got in your face? Most of you would answer beat their asses to a bloody pulp.

The people mad in this situation are wrong. If you don't like the taxes, vote to change. No reason to be mad at an individual LEO when they didn't choose to be there, they were sent to do a job.

Couldn't the government just place a lien on his estate and wait for the fucker to die or something?

I'd love to see a cost/benefit analysis on this one! The cost of organizing this much government muscle (and the legal shit happening in the background) has to be staggering.


C'mon man. You're smarter than that.

If they let this one go then the next time a hick doesn't want to pay his taxes he will do the same thing until everyone decides to not pay their taxes.

Now do the cost benefit analysis of squashing this now before it becomes the norm and it makes good sense.

Laws are only as good as their enforcement.
