Couple In Fed Standoff

Wednesday, June 20, 2007

Claiming that there is no law requiring them to pay taxes, well-armed New Hampshire couple Ed and Elaine Brown have vowed to die rather than surrender to a prison term. What do you think?

Penny Insbrook,
Systems Analyst
"Wow. I wish I felt that strongly. About anything."

Rod Warren,
Drill Press Operator
"Taxed labor is just a form of slavery where you work whenever you want at whatever you want to do."

Matt McKee,
Llama Farmer
"This standoff would all be worth it if, when Ed Brown was asked for his 1099, he replied 'Here's my 1099,' and then drew a gun."
