Sovreign Citizen: A person who had their license suspended and adopted a philosophy that would allow him or her to morally justify driving anyway by putting the guilt on the state rather than their own personal actions.

I always fin it funny how nearly 100% of sovereign citizens are found to have once had a license and they were all about following the system right up until it got suspended.

@freemo Do you mean all the people you have come across personally...? didn't seem clear.

I'd like to theoretically see numbers that differentiate people who are starting off as 'going with the flow types of people' who then changed their mind

or "I got suspended" types of people and now I choose this from less of another chance)...

Because I'm sure most people / all start on the default "following rules" because they didn't even know better or what "Sovreign Citizen" until they grow older so what it means or involves isn't ever from start or scratch... so everyone starts there but differentiating why they changed is difficult unless you personally met some folks...

No never met one in person. My expiernce to them is limited to their posts online and in videos.

In almost all videos I've seen when someone starts spewing sovreign citizen nonsense on a traffic stop they are always found in the end to have a suspended license.
