No idea what that even is lol.
Probably autocorrected a misspelled "Black's law."
Speech to text strikes again.
I was curious enough to actually go find the 6th edition on open library. The actual definition:
Money. In usual and ordinary acceptation it means coins and paper currency used as a circulating medium of exchange, and does not embrace notes, bonds, evidences of debt, or other personal or real estate. Lane v Railey, 280 KY. 319, 133 S.W.2d 74, 79, 81.
A medium of exchange authorized or adopted by a domestic or foreign government as part of its currency. U.C.C. S 1-201(24).
Neither "sawdust" nor "beaver pellets" appear anywhere in the 1700-page book. Googling that phrase turns up only this very thread.
Did you search in the basketball edition?
Don't forget to hold the dictionary at a 45 degree angle. That's the secret to reading the code.
I'm shocked I tell you, that a sovcit is making stuff up.
To be honest I really expected more of a deliberate/motivated misreading of something that at least exists somewhere
does not embrace notes, bonds, evidences of debt, or other personal or real estate
That almost seems to refute what other SovCits try to do by paying with "coupons", invoice slips, tax forms, or whatever their specific nonsense du jour is.
They seriously believe that the dictionary definition of money is "pellets and sawdust may be money but Federal reserve notes cannot"?
Even aside from the absurdity of it, it refers to itself in the definition. It's a bit like saying the definition of 'milk' is "cow milk is milk, but pineapple juice isn't milk."
The 6th edition of Black’s Law was published in 1990 by the way.
As we all know, it was a time where trading beaver pelts and sawdust was common practice in the U.S.
Beaver pellets.
I can't confirm this, but I suspect this man expects to be paid in beaver shit.
It at least is real and offers some value (biodegradable nutrients for soil).
This is just schizophrenia untreated.
Good luck training an AI on this shit
This one has to be a plant messing around with the real sovcits. Has to be.
...Right?
They post a lot so I don't think so.
I'm smelling burnt toast after reading that.
It is rather brain bending isn't it.
Ownership really is a solipsistic paradigm, but at least the solipsism is buried deep below a seamless constructed reality we can all share. This is just naked solipsism that isn't even self-aware enough to be called nihilism.
Right? I’m with the principle that money is made up and the systems is fucked, but also there’s a mechanical reality to the system constructed around it. Additionally laws ain’t magic, people have to agree to honor them even if it’s just tacitly by virtue of being born into them, and the overwhelmingly vast majority of people are participating in this system.
Made up, but the word "made" is doing a lot of unpaid overtime
SovCits wants so bad for the law to be ancient magical texts that will grant their deepest wishes if they just find the right spell.
I see SovCits as a symptom of how broken our legal and criminal justice systems are and how neglected, powerless, and scared people feel.
I see them as prime examplee of the dunning krueger effect.
What do you say fellow Canadians? Should we lend these poors a few pelts, until they get back on their feet?
I vote interest paid shall be Texas BBQ.
Can you just adopt the ones that want to escape this hell hole
Pellets.
Like poop pellets
Not pelts. Animal pelts would be too logical cuz at least that'd be worth something.
Certainly. And I'll chip in a few kgs of sawdust, gratis
What, and I cannot stress this enough, the fuck.
How do you find sovcits locally? I've got some silver quarters and need some work done. They should accept .9 oz of silver as payment of a few thousand in wages owed right?
Good question. I guess just watch the license plates you see and leave a note on their conveyance.
But unfortunately they can't do anything with your request, because they were traveling in a conveyance that's not used commercially.
Their legal strawman might accept an invitation for contractual intercourse in your jurisdiction, though. Without dishonor and all rights reserved of course.
Leave five pounds of salted beaver meat in a flour sack hanging from a copper hook by your back door.
They'll be in contact.
Where do I find this guy? I got a lot of sawdust I need to exchange into this "foreign currency" he has.
He and i should go toe to toe on bird law
I bet I could convince the sovcits bird law is a real thing.
Just brigade their forms citing Reynolds vs. US and how it’s created a precedent in Bird Law
