Fuck's sake call yourselves a democracy

We have started to get these billboards in my town. They are appearing all over the country.

Seems surprisingly well resourced.

Well, they are quite a big bank

A nutball has no /legal/ name.

Very well resourced - there is one on the north side of London Bridge station, visible to all the traffic coming south over the bridge iirc.

A quick look at the website confirms what I've been saying for years - YouTube must be stopped.

The woman behind it was in tech and owns an ISP which explains where the money comes from but raises questions about why the website is so bad.

On a Raqqa tip (ShariVari), Thursday, 26 May 2016 06:49 (ten years ago)

Is LEGAL NAME underlined, or is that something sticking out from the car in front?

So you are a hippocrite, face it! (Bananaman Begins), Thursday, 26 May 2016 08:04 (ten years ago)

Underlined.

On a Raqqa tip (ShariVari), Thursday, 26 May 2016 08:07 (ten years ago)

Pretty sure ones I've seen haven't had it underlined, so this is a new development.

"Yeah, we're still not getting the sort of google search numbers and new uptake we'd hoped... maybe there's something we need to change on the billboards..."

So you are a hippocrite, face it! (Bananaman Begins), Thursday, 26 May 2016 08:12 (ten years ago)

"legal name" as a UK concept is v different to US law and largely meaningless as I understand it

Noodle Vague, Thursday, 26 May 2016 09:31 (ten years ago)

Most of this stuff is just cheat code thinking applied to the law, i.e. largely meaningless.

Three Word Username, Thursday, 26 May 2016 10:06 (ten years ago)

Spotted a couple in Dundee and a colleague has seen one in Perth.

michaellambert, Thursday, 26 May 2016 11:02 (ten years ago)

Do most people in the UK who see that billboard understand what it means? Because I have no idea what the phrases "Legal name fraud" and "it's illegal to use a legal name" mean.

If I saw a billboard like that here I would probably just assume it's some weird viral marketing thing.

silverfish, Thursday, 26 May 2016 13:11 (ten years ago)

Oh god no, it looks like gibberish (because it is gibberish). I'm struck that it's the only billboard I've ever seen advertising a website without the URL on it.

TWU - there's definitely an aspect where it's aimed at people who are aware that there are cheat codes and that laws are designed to benefit some rather than others, but here's how to make that work for _you_.

Andrew Farrell, Thursday, 26 May 2016 13:18 (ten years ago)

their site links through to https://kateofgaia.wordpress.com/ which is uhhhhhhhh pretty wild

When pair-ents (two minds) or payer-rents choose to REGISTER their children, they are LITERALLY trading off the life source of the being that is SUCKED into that body in this reality for the whore of Baby-loans LEGAL NAME dead child, in essence, ADOPTING Satan’s child in LLEU of heaven’s child. The Laws-R-us effect, raising the dead NAME DEMON and razing the living consciousness you THINK of as YOU and every other human being as well as all sentient life in this reality. In short, YOU offer up your living child as a sacrifice to Satan while your living child commits sign after sign (sin upon sin) and ADOPT the dead LEGAL DEMON literally breathing life into evil with every creation thenceforth.

feel a bit bad about making fun of someone who obviously has problems, but on the other hand if you will create a national billboard campaign for your crackpot theories...

ghosts that don't exist (Neil S), Friday, 27 May 2016 09:45 (ten years ago)

crackpot theories based on transposing crackpot theories about a wholly different legal system

Solidly in Francis E. Dec (q.v.) territory here.

That Kate of Gaia stuff reads like full-blown schizophrenia to me. The combination of weirdo wordplay and manic certainty reminds me of a woman I met years ago who wanted to pitch me some freelance pieces. She actually had some decent clips, but when I met her at a coffee shop all she wanted to show me was this mountain of stuff she had written about how she was John Lennon's wife from another dimension ("What you call 'Heaven,'" she said very matter-of-factly). Her whole schema was very detailed and consistent, she had obviously built it up over a long time, and she didn't or couldn't distinguish between talking about her life in Heaven and her daily life in an apartment complex here in town.

Yeah, I saw a new one around there but have forgotten where exactly - the one under the bridge at London Bridge is still there. Where on earth is the money coming from?

Andrew Farrell, Friday, 3 June 2016 12:05 (ten years ago)

Only fair to point out that ilx didnt actually yknow start this

Fella i had long and tricky professional engagement with a few years back is now making national headlines in this sphere. I wouldve predicted it tbh.

Daithi Bowsie (darraghmac), Friday, 3 June 2016 15:38 (ten years ago)

there are a lot of things out there i would never had heard of, if not for ilx (like trypophobia, thanks a lot).

Interesting language used in resp to that 9th Circuit CCW ruling from the NRA:

“This decision will leave good people defenseless, as it completely ignores the fact that law-abiding Californians who reside in counties with hostile sheriffs will now have no means to carry a firearm outside the home for personal protection,” the group’s legislative chief, Chris W. Cox, said.

Morgan County Sheriff Vince Shambaugh stated that “[Shute] took cover behind a tree and shot these people ambush-style,” and that an AR-15 was the weapon used.

The AR-15 is rapidly becoming the shining symbol of our glorious freedom to go on a killing rampage against anyone we don't like, including whoever is standing next to them.

The whole freeman shtick is at least partly about offering magic hope or solutions to people who feel marginalized so this isn't surprising. Some of the vids upthread are from people of colour looking for a defence against oppressive authority iirc

http://talkingpointsmemo.com/livewire/ryan-bundy-declares-self-idiot-sovereign-citizen

In a baffling series of court motions filed Thursday, one of the men who led a 41-day occupation earlier this year of the Malheur Wildlife Refuge in Oregon declared himself a sovereign citizen free from the bounds of federal laws.

Ryan Bundy claimed that he was a “idiot of the ‘Legal Society’” in documents filed to U.S. District Court Judge Anna Brown, as Oregon Public Broadcasting reported.

“I, ryan c, man, am an idiot of the ‘Legal Society’; and; am an idiot (layman, outsider) of the ‘Bar Association’; and; i am incompetent; and; am not required by any law to be competent,” Bundy wrote.
