Lines have been crossed down under Australia is awesome. Feral cats are killing native marsupials like koalas and wallabies, so locals eliminate the invasive species by eating them. She makes further points which I don't get. Maybe humour? Cats r good hunters  pls don't eat them Is that's cats face Photoshopped? Looks a bit off. Not just cat's face! The whole cat! And more!  |

3d interval still looks OK.

It's the rhetoric. I am quite certain that if you started erecting spars 15 miles out in the gulf of Mexico and posting on FB about your libertarianism and self sovereignty the reaction of the USCG would be swift and unequivocal. Global enclosure is nearly complete. I really think that, short of an orbital Lagrange platform, the aircraft carrier is the only way. I think an old supertanker or massive container ship would be a better option.. and a lot easier to obtain... Granted, there would be more upfront work involved to make it usable.. but with those huge wide open holds, you could basically build in whatever infrastructure you want.. Kinda like buying an old warehouse and turning it into high-end flats... A used cruise ship https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FreewindsThe point of such modular design is: if you realize you don't like this particular seasteading community, it's trivial to detach your pod and float away. |

Maybe not the police, but certainly the IRS/Fed if you told them that you're a sovereign seastead and don't want them to steal your money. "Steal your money" as in taxes? Elwar himself clearly stated that this project has NOTHING to do wth tax avoidance. He's quite aware that as a U.S. citizen he can't avoid U.S. taxes no matter where he lives. |

First Amendment does not mean freedom from consequences.
If you say “I declare sovereignty” to your cat and continue to pay your taxes, then no, nothing will happen.
But I don’t think that was what seasteads were about.
And what exactly Elwar did? They just lived there. You can live like that on a houseboat in the US and nothing will happen. |

Not much of a difference in terms of law.
Elwar build nothing, he was just a tenant.
That's like finding a houseboat on Airbnb... nobody is going to arrest a tourist for renting one in the US.
Try declaring sovereignty in a trailer on the mainland and see what happens. It is a very powerful idea. Which makes it dangerous. Nothing will happen. Declaring anything is just words, and words are protected by the First Amendment. Actions matter, like if someone would start breaking laws, and stops paying taxes, such actions will invite trouble. |

Plenty of people live on "house boats" in the US.
Citizenship is not a requirement to live on one of those. Tourists can live where they want, as long as they aren't breaking any laws.

I am not saying the law makes sense but law is law.
What law? Imagine it happened in let's say Florida. Whould they be arrested? If so, for what? |

Despite previous info, maybe they are not out of danger just yet.  |

Good bye 5400.
We'll meet again.

Good luck moving that gold across a country/border via a flight. I know which asset I choose.
But where will you hide it? |

Second attack on 5400?
Not going to succeed, I presume.
So would you say it is not an optimal time to 80x long? I'm not a trader... Yeah, I see folks talk about leverage, but I still have no idea what that is, nor how it works. |

I really need to learn how to make animated gifs in PS.
It's all about Animated PNGs these days. GIFs are from the 80s, literally. Anyway, you just need to force your PS to save a sequence of frames as individual (numbered) PNGs, and you're 95% there. After that, it's super easy. |

Folks, please ignore the obvious forum bots.
Don't quote them, don't try to start some meaningful conversations with them.
Thank you.
