We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :)
Please help by posting all issues here.
The forum will be down for about an hour this weekend for maintenance. I apologize for the inconvenience.
The first domino falls.
For the naysayers: do you think Alan Gura, et al, set up only two dominoes before setting things off? I think we can expect much more where this came from.

Let's say I decide to purchase a...

I believe there is no longer any harm in discussing my detention back in July 2008, so I decided to share it here.
I want to begin by apologizing. For those who have been around long enough to remember it, I once posted my story in another thread. In that thread I claimed to have...

Is there anything stopping someone from applying for a non-resident HCP permit in another state, and then using that to avoid the outrageous testing/taxing in TN? For...

***Admin, please sticky for 24 hours.***
Some of you may not be aware, but right now (literally, as I type this) Thesues is being maliciously prosecuted for nothing more than exercising his right to defend himself and his family.

We've got a lot of new faces here, and I haven't talked about the www.freestateproject.org for a while, so I wanted to introduce the idea to the newer members here.
I won't make this a long post by explaining what the FSP is. I figure if you're interested you'll click over and...

When I read the headline, I expected to read about two cowboys gunslinging at high noon.
Turns out, this is not about a "Wild West" shootout, it's about a "wild" shootout in West Sacramento.
