If you have sat at the feet of a patriot myth monger, hanging on his every word, struggling to squeeze sense out of his preachments and absorb them into your being, pay heed to the fate of Winston Shrout. We don't know its full impact on his life, and we certainly cannot envy it. He could have avoided the fate had he not tried to "Trick" the system by embracing mythological nonsense about the US Government and our status and obligations under the law.
If you have followed a patriot myth monger, seek competent legal counsel before you get into serious trouble.
Shrout managed to get his sentencing date postponed to 2/20/2018.
