Of course they did - they faced an emergency situation that required using the system they moved away from. I would have done the same. But it proved a point, without that modern society provided resource, they would have eventually received a letter (again a service provided by society) telling them their relative had died giving them no time to say last goodbyes or even attend the funeral. It just struck me as ironic - them harping on about their freedoms but then they rely on a service they say they didn't need. If that TV crew hadn't been there it would have caused them heartache. So much for being 'independent' or 'self sufficient' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do something bad enough and they WILL come and take you away and lock you up. Thats the reality. (imo) why are you conflating 'freeman on the land' with the common law? The common law is the foundation of the british constitution and has been subverted by parliamentary statute Re registering your child the bernician has some interesting things to say about that: Reflection Upon Refusing To Register A Birth https://www.thebernician.net/reflections-upon-refusing-to-register-a-birth/ But going back to the common law the UK Column have been doing a series about the british constitution and the common law.

Freeman on the Land The freeman-on-the-land movement, also known as the freemen-of-the-land (sometimes abbreviated as FOTL[2]), the freemen movement, or simply freemen, is a loose group of individuals who believe that they are bound by statute laws only if they consent to those laws. They believe that they can therefore declare themselves independent of the government and the rule of law, holding that the only "true" law is their own idiosyncratic interpretation of "common law".[3] Link - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeman_on_the_land Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not me. Did you see John Harris talks etc? I did not say Common Law was a Psyop and in fact I did not say Freeman on the Land was a Psyop. Where's your argument? Once again it seems to fade away and be based on nothing or incorrectly re-framing what I actually said.
