Even if they did epicly own them, what then?
I grew up in a suburb of Houston, and I know people who could get out of just about anything by simply smiling and waving at unfailingly polite police officer from the front seat of their crazy-expensive cars. It was confusing as hell for me, as my mom was utterly terrified of the police and ingrained that fear in me as early as she was able.
Libertarians, Sovereign Citizens, Tea Party weirdos, QAnoners and the like are just in this liminal space, surrounded by cops who are more-and-more not their friends. This crazy legalist approach to interacting with cops is just a symptom of the transition. They’re trying to sort out the “Good Cops” from the “Bad Cops” as these institutions begin to cannibalize their old bases of support.
