New Hampshire resident, Tax protestor Ed Brown vs. the IRS

[RetSquid]

How stupid can you be to not know what a 'taxpayer' is?

The law makes 'every individual' liable for income tax, anybody here not an individual?

[monsterc901]

I'm related to him. Eddie is my uncle.

[roaringwaterbay]

is Ed in prison now?

[baalyezidi]

not just ron paul.. but many other ex irs agents who know the truth... this is only the tip of the ice berg...

watch this... and open ur mind..

watch?v=rPypDaXfIV8&feature=re­lated

[superpencil007]

Good Report, but let Brown speak more.

I think he is right. IRS & Federal Income Tax is unlawful.

Even Presidential candidate Dr. Ron Paul agrees with Ed Browns position.

[nesnman]

Ed Brown lost the case. And I believe he has also lost his mind.

[STORM6490MT]

Would have been nice if they afforded him a fair trial like we all deserve. He may be wrong he may be right, but that is up to the people. I don't see any justice in his case either way. This needs to be addressed but most people are comfortable with their football and beer and could give a shit less about a proper trial.

[nesnman]

He got a fair trial. But people like him are crazy. Anyone who doesn't pay taxes should go to jail. I pay mine and I'm proud to pay them.

[STORM6490MT]

How was it fair?

[nesnman]

How was it no fair?

You people who believe in this nut should do what he did. You're much better off in Prison.

[nesnman]

Typo. How was it not fair?

[monsterc901]

@nesnman THis is my uncle. You must come from a different country if you like paying your taxes. He was proving a point. IDIOT!!

[nesnman]

Why don't you address Ed Brown. The so called patriot went to prison during the 1960's for assault and Armed Robbery. Care to explain that one?

[STORM6490MT]

Lots of good people have criminal backgrounds. We do stupid things when we are young.

[nesnman]

Yeah, And Ed  Brown does stupid things as he gets older. HAHAHAHAHAH

[nhoverhaulinfan2]

The Browns are now in Jail

[nhilst600]

...and thank G-d they are nhohfan2, that two less wanabees for the knuckleheads and mental-defects to latch onto. Let's hope the FED's got good clear photos of the A-H's who went up there to party with these two seditionists earlier.

[Shadyhunter04]

Social security is also bullshit. We should have a choice whether or not to participate in the damn thing.

[retroact1ve]

Our government has no say in the printing, distribution, oversight of policies/actions into the Federal Reserve. I shouldnt call people morons but you do really need to educate yourself. If you refuse to willfully stay ignorant that is up to you. I suggest you start by watching Aaron Russo's America: Freedom to Facism. Once you become less ignorant perhaps we can talk sometime to help you move along more intellectually

[retroact1ve]

More-over the Federal Taxes you do pay ends up going straight to the Federal Reserve company to pay for the interest our government is charged when it borrows money from the Reserve Company to put into circulation. Also Keep in mind the Federal Reserve is a private organization that the government has no say in whatsoever.

[retroact1ve]

Rosiercentral: You are the moron. Roads are paid for out of Gas Taxes, Schools are paid for out of the local school taxes. The constitution says it is unconstitutional to have direct and unapportioned taxes which the Federal Tax comes out of.

[Rosiercentral]

these people are morons.

the income tax is legit and is nessescary (sorry for the spelling) for the roads to be paved and the schools to be at top shape.

they shouldn't turn this into another Shay's Rebellion.

[ChristianPeper]

If anything happens to these two hero's all freedom lovers must be ready to take direct action. It is time for a revolution. Stop paying taxes, buy guns.

[tdljazz]

It seems that the Brown's have forgotten one little point. We were all sold under slavery through Social Security.

[bstnh1]

Theh feds should go in and haul this guy out and throw his ass in jail with the rest of the criminals where he belongs!

[cpconeill]

get informed see for free google video "freedom to fascism" by aaron russo. there is no federal LAW that says we must pay income tax. therefore it is not ILLEGAL not to pay it. you support the browns `cos if they win you make money dummy!

[gearzone2611]

Income tax is unconstitutional! If the dude pay the income tax. The international bankers would love to see his money be put on their pockets! Even if he is not correct, theres NO such laws mandating you to pay income taxes. Its all part of slavery again but through written words of dominant people!

[nhilst600]

This past week Ed Brown threatened to shoot Plainfield Police Chief Gordon Gillens and Sullivan County Sheriff Michael Prozzo if they set foot on his doorstep. This proves that his 'crusade' has little to do with reasonable discourse and more to do with the Brown's being a pair of total dumbasses.

[Joszuaprocess]

Agreed. I'm glad not everyone has their head up the Brown's asses or their own. They're criminals. Plain and simple.

[soulmantim]

Show me the law where it says Income tax is legal.

The police have no place on his private property. SNIPERS have been setup around his house and are being attacked by these sheriffs, the IRS, and the FBI. Ed Brown is a hero. Repeat, the federal gov and POLICE have fired rounds into his house for and unconstitutional INCOME TAX and have snipers setup. what law are the Browns breaking?

[nhilst600]

1)The Congress shall have power to *lay and collect taxes*, duties, imposts and excises, to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and general welfare of the United States 2)To borrow money on the credit of the United States. 3)The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on incomes, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration. QUESTIONS??

[TheSmokingNug]

unapportioned taxes are unconstitutional. also, the thirteenth amendment says there can be no involuntary servitude. to be legally employed in the US, you have to pay a tax on your income. unless you pay labor taxes voluntarily, the tax is equal to slavery. the revolution was fought for this very same reason. read ben franklin.

[soulmantim]

Watch this video in all entirety.

They can't be criminals without a law.

watch?v=t7_DgSep-ns

[nhilst600]

OK, then tell me why Irwin Schiff is in jail too? Can't answer that one eh? ;)

[soulmantim]

watch the series of videos starting with this one:

watch?v=6KjBy_qp4Zc

Irwin Schiff, from what I read on the wiki, is in jail for filing 'false' 1040's, if he didn't file there wouldn't be a case. He's in jail at a Fort Dix Airforce Base in New Jersey. Poor guy doesn't belong there. They still haven't found the law.

[Backpackr3]

nhilst600.....Irwin Schiff is in jail because Judge Dawson wouldn't allow him to raise the law in his defense. Kinda hard to defend yourself when you can't even talk about the law you are accused of breaking. What Judge Dawson did in this trial was downright criminal.

[soulmantim]

watch?v=v_Nv7Ee8qNc&NR=1

[stillresist]

so which federal agency do you work for BSTNH1? Or are you just a brainwashed sheep, traitor or coward. It is so hard to tell the difference between them all.

I like all these clowns who are so "knowledgable" but cannot provide a simple law. Get out of the country? Why don't you leave TRAITOR and go stay in a socialist paradise and leave America for those who want freedom. buy guns, ammo, food and TRAIN!

[DirtyCherokee]

Great website. Your comments are my sentiments exactly.

[GeorgeVreelandHill]

I support Ed and Elaine Brown.

Their refusal to pay income tax is not only right, but legal.

In fact, the taxes that the Browns are being forced to pay is illegal.

The government's right to collect income tax was never made into law.

George Vreeland Hill

See Former IRS Commissioner "Coleman Andrews" interview about unjust income tax law in a 15pg 1956 US News Report - go to hearliberty(dot)com and download the pdf on main home page - great website!

[DirtyCherokee]

A great read. Everyone should read this.

[lochinverx]

They are keeping up the fight.  takes guts. support the browns.

[bstnh1]

All you have to do is read some of these comments to realize there are a lot of uninformed, misinformed, unstable people out there - most of who probably know next to nothing about the founding or operation of the U.S. Government, U.S. Statutes, the Code of Federal Regulations, or the U.S. judicial system. Before you post comments about the illegality of income taxes or the Federal reserve or the judicial system, you really ought to know at least where to find the statutes you're talking about.

[Enlightened12]

Since you're so smart, why don't you tell us where it says it is mandatory for American people to pay taxes on their labor?

[breedsauce101]

It is you who are misinformed bstnh1. All the comments I have seen on this page are from well informed PATRIOTS.Pull your head out before it's to late. Go watch AMERICA:FREEDOM TO FASCISM 3 or 4 times and then research how our constitution has been destroyed since 911.If you are not infuriated by that than it is YOU who should leave this country!!!PEACE and GOOD LUCK

[DirtyCherokee]

The US Constitution is the primary law of the land. All other laws must operate according to the Constitution or they are invalid, useless as the paper they are printed on. Read the Constitution and then come back with your ill-conceived comments. I can quote it word-for-word, from memory.

[bstnh1]

Don't liek paying taxes in this country??? Then get out!! There are plenty of other countries...pick one and go!

[swarmofoctopii]

its not about not paying taxes. its about not paying INCOME TAX. state and city taxes are a legitimate taxation. income tax is unlawful and goes to do nothing but pay off the debt accrued by the unnecessary Federal Reserve Bank(which is a private bank, nothing to do with our government)

[newgness]

because someone disagrees that doesnt mean they are "anti american" the masses need to question our leaders/leadership/laws

[Enlightened12]

Watch "America: Freedom to Fascism" (all 11 parts) on here.

[soulmantim]

Taxes are fine. People pay state taxes like Road tax, School tax, Property tax, (insert object or service here) tax. But Income tax is unconstitutional and there is no law. Why? Because Income tax means the government OWNS your time and labor, it opens up unlimited funds to fund our imperlism and welfare state. We can do without Income tax, in fact we can do much better without it.

[gearzone2611]

I get what you meant. But in the 16th amendment. The congress has the power to collect taxes on income. So obviously we should pay the income tax according in the 16th amendment. Can you explain more about this. Im very confused!

[soulmantim]

16th amendment was never ratified.

In fact, before the 16th amendment was put in place Income tax was deamed unconstitutional.

This page may help (no spaces).

thelawthatneverwas . com/new/davy2 . asp

[gearzone2611]

If it was NOT ratified, why its in the COnstitution? It means it was ratified, its in there the 16th amendment. Its all over its in the Constitution now. Its impossible to abolish it since it was passed by the congress and ratified. Its now part of the amendemnt of the Constitution.

[soulmantim]

gearzone, look up what ratification means :)

[gearzone2611]

LOL Ok!

Go get another beer out of your fridge.

Get educated before replying or at least cut back on the Bud.

[AlexJonesRules]

The best idea that the American people should use against the illegal taxes is to look at the youtube video for inspiration. Type in the words in youtubes search engine: "300 Movie Clip First Fight Scene"

[ston3dinok]

The Brown's case has ground to stand on.There is NO law,these people are being bullied by our government over a law that DOES NOT exist.

[shwantz1]

There is no Law, this is true. He challenged them in court, they couldnt provide the law. Yet you see the show of force this mob has? Judges, lawyers, courts, Marshalls, sherrifs, cops, ATF, FBI, CIA, NSA, Military power & corrupt politicians. Its extortion. No law but they will get everything he owns while he sits in prison or dies. Ruby Ridge/Waco here we go again.....right vs wrong doesnt matter. Its all about revenue.

[majikspell1]

There is NO law which requires an individual to pay income taxes!

Educate yourselves!

[jackdisme]

If you are one of the people in law enforcment being asked to enforce this please do your homework or you will feel like a fool someday after you have killed them. Search videos for "Fiat Empire" and "America Freedom to Fascism" Don't be like Hitlers henchmen.

[virgojeep1]

The browns should not have been convicted of any crimes because one, the law does not exist and two, their position has precedence, meaning that taxes have been ruled unlawful by many other judges in the past. Some of those cases even taking place before the supreme court.

Prozzo, Jr., Sullivan County Sheriff's Office, 14 Main St., P.O.

Please write the Judge at: Judge McAuliffe, 55 Pleasant, Concord, NH

[wastedwhiteguy6978]

Tesselator, I'd honestly love to come and i sure as hell would if i thought i'd benefit them in any way. Fact is that over time i've gotten more and more paranoid so i have a hard time with trusting people i don't know until they've shown themselves to be trustworthy. Now if it actually came down to a fight then i'd be useful at that time.

[Tesselator]

Just being there benefits them. It has come to an actual fight. See other news here or at infowars, prisonplanet, etc.

By just being there we're "warding off the wolves". Like the campfire that keeps away the hungry carnivores at night. If the feds were on the up and up we wouldn't matter and a single sheriff or two could go in and convince Ed of the truth. Ed is very reasonable! But it's not like that. They're trying to pull some shiz here. Our presence prevents that to a HUGE degree.

[wastedwhiteguy6978]

Are you over there now?

[Tesselator]

Well this is not really about taxes! This is about an illegal court handing down an illegal decision, not allowing evidence, not allowing witnesses, not allowing case law to be introduced and etc. etc.

And by the way... Federal income taxes DO NOT apply to individuals! They are for corporations! This is in the constitution and backed up by multiple supreme court decisions! It's easy to research these things and get the official info!

[theredpill99]

America was setup by criminals a long time ago...although I admire Ed Brown, he's probably going to prison...

[wastedwhiteguy6978]

Theres several patriots in the brown house right now who are heavily armed and would disagree with you on whether ed brown is going to prison.

[theredpill99]

nice...why not...hell, the politicians who formed this country broke the law well before any of us ever did...I'm not saying Ed Brown broke the law...what I'm saying is that when you have a lawless society...the power of the gun is what decides matters...

[wastedwhiteguy6978]

Agreed on the last part as for the first part i'd have to call you on it and ask that you cite an example of the framers violating American law. Ya got to give respect to somebody who believes something so much he/she is willing to die for it.

[theredpill99]

the people who set up our monetary system were criminals...I'd say that pretty much makes our forefathers criminals...watch the money masters...

[wastedwhiteguy6978]

Your speaking of the federal reserve right? Our fore fathers originally based our currency on gold and silver. In 1913 the federal reserve was created (illegally) Thats when the monetary system went down the drain. In 1913 the value of a dollar was a dollar compared to the 4 cents its worth now.

[danpauselius]

Most of the income tax arguements are dead wrong, that is why many of the leaders of those activist groups end up in prison.

Read Peter Hendrickson's book called "cracking the code" if you really want to know why most Americans are not liable to pay income tax.

Go Ed, Go! Thank God for true patriots like Ed Brown.

[lastlady]

I support Ed & Elaine Brown!

[Jergeofthejungle]

The fed is and was illegal when it was invented.We pay tax on our income,tax on goods,tax on property,tax on gas etc.....We do not pay taxes to sustain our goverment,pay taxes to sustain the international banking bastards that own the land that we all die forin wars,and then turn right around and pay taxes on our own monies.Wars are have not been to protect our country, they have been to protect the interests of the international banking cartel.

[asperin]

any latest news on this? im trying to find more about and do some online advertising on the case...

peace

[zyby]

Google Dr. Ward Dean "After careful study of Supreme Court cases, the Internal Revenue Code, historical documents, and many books, Dr. Dean realized that he could no longer participate in the federal tax scam in good conscience."

[keyofdeborah]

Let's get excited. we don't have to pay taxes.

[AwesomeMullet69]

Ed Brown is a patriot.

If anyone wants to know why a tax on labor was fraudulently "enacted" and who is really benefiting from it, watch the You Tube videos "Monopoly Men" Parts 1 through 5. Also, see the video "Not Federal, No Reserves".

The Monetary Reform Act (backed by many Chicago-area bankers, as well as some prominent politicians) is our only hope of retaining a middle class anywhere in the world.
