Defiance Brewing
Larken Rose:
"Please Prosecute Me."
As reported before, on June 17th, Bob Schulz told the
government: "No more. Enough is enough. No answers,
no taxes."
Schulz sent the IRS a letter
publicly announcing his personal convictions and
decision to terminate his filing of income tax returns
and his decision to stop paying the tax.
Now comes Larken Rose, author of an articulate website
on IRC code section "861" openly taunting the
government to prosecute him for failure to file. Rose has
documented exhaustively that the laws -- as written --
exempt ALL domestic income from taxation.
In his open letter to government officials that is
being widely disseminated, Rose begins:
|
"Dear Federal Government,
PLEASE PROSECUTE ME.
I, Larken Rose, have not filed a federal income
tax return for 1997 or any subsequent year. This
is not because I am protesting any law, or because
I do not want to pay my 'fair share;' it is
because I refuse to be a victim of the biggest
financial fraud in history. I also refuse to
remain silent while government lawyers illegally
defraud my fellow Americans."
|
Rose continues, (after some discussion of section 861)
|
"I will not stand by and allow myself, my
family and my neighbors to be extorted simply
because some power-happy bureaucrats huff and puff
about all the nasty things they will do to anyone
who does not 'comply' with the IRS' misapplication
of the law. To the DOJ and the IRS I say this: You
know I am among the most vocal about this issue.
"Stop terrorizing the American public,
and come get me. Make an 'example'
of me. Surely if my position is 'frivolous' and
completely devoid of merit, then the DOJ attorneys
can easily refute my position in front of a jury,
and have me convicted and imprisoned...
So take your best shot."
|
Although the government labels any discussion of this
matter as "frivolous", questions about the
statute's applicability have never been directly decided
by a federal court. As with the Foundation's repeated
demands for answers, IRS and DOJ also refuse to answer
Rose's specific legal legal charges.
Again this Foundation asks: What is a free People to
do?
