Charles and Kathleen Moore are about to have their day in the Supreme Court over a $15,000 tax bill they contend is unconstitutional.
The couple from Redmond, Washington, claim they had to pay the money because of their investment in an Indian company from which, as Charles Moore, 62, said in a sworn statement, they “have never received a distribution, dividend, or other payment.”
But significant parts of the story they have told to reach this point seem at odds with public records.
The Moores are the public face of a high court case backed by business and conservative political interests that could call into question other parts of the U.S. tax code and rule out a much-discussed but never-enacted tax on wealth. The case is set for arguments on Dec. 5.
I am armed just fine, but you’re nuts if you think anything we can buy legally in the states would leave much of a dent in military grade people movers and armored craft.
I live in a small town of 50-60k people and the small village police department near me has an APC. The kind designed to be able to survive IEDs and small caliber rounds.
I’m always shocked when people think APCs are driven by immortal robots that need no sleep.
Give it 15 years
You’re not wrong. You might even be optimistic.
It’s not like they’d really care if the targeting algorithms occasionally decide all baby strollers are IEDs.
Who thinks that?
The fatshit driving the apc is probably wearing his own armor and likely has a higher caliber rifle than I do. Hopeless? No. Am I stupid enough to say I wouldn’t be afraid? Also no.
Bro, most “military grade” body armor won’t protect you from a deer rifle, and the specific configurations of AR-15 owned by the government and called M16/M4/Whatever use glorified .223.
That totally solves my issue of having 0 armor and small caliber hunting arms.
I’m not a tacticool fool, and I’m also not delusional.
Molotov cocktails are the key to all armored vehicles.
