About Ed and Elaine Brown, the couple who refused to pay taxes..
They got arrested.
[ QUOTE ] Tax protesters Ed and Elaine Brown were tricked by US Marshals who entered their home yesterday afternoon posing as supporters . The Marshals entered the house at a time when there were no other supporters present and catching the Browns off guard were able to arrest them and remove them from the property. [/ QUOTE ] I guess it could have ended worse. I really was hoping something good would come of this ordeal though. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I saw this on CNN today - no discussion of whether the tax is actually legit or not, just "look at the evil people getting arrested after being tricked by the cops, hehehe"
Bad coverage.

Don't get me wrong, Ed Brown was a nutcase, but not because he wouldn't pay taxes.

Re: About Ed and Elaine Brown, the couple who refused to pay taxes..
Is it the mandatory taxation that is tyrannical and evil?

Re: About Ed and Elaine Brown, the couple who refused to pay taxes..
Can you direct me to the part of the constitution that states that the government cannot tax the citizens?
