Cops are now arresting parents for homeschooling.

Likely easily avoidable. The officer said that "no home school paperwork was submitted." If it's like California, you just submit a private school affidavit. It takes all of five minutes. Instead they're talking about "contracts" like sovereign citizens. Compliance was likely easy in that state, and would have kept them out of trouble. But they know they're rights! 🙄

@Humpleupagus @cowanon Yes, and the cop clearly says they just have to sign that they were served the papers and will appear in court. He isn't convicted of anything and wouldn't spend time in prison even if he was. Submitting the homeschool documentation "late" would likely just be a fine. The arrest happened over him not letting them serve the documents.

Truancy laws aren't new, and with the recognition of home schooling, easily avoided. You gotta pick your battles. This isn't the hill to die on.

@Humpleupagus @cowanon @WandererUber We accept the state of things, because recognition of encroachment of tyrants is slow and comes mostly with life experience. Bell curve probably applies.

Also, this is the procedure with every speeding ticket. Refuse to sign one, and you're going to jail.

Here in California, it was actually the courts that gave the state the finger based on existing statutory law. Homeschooling was in effect an accidental side effect of law. The need to submit an affidavit for a private school pre-existed that decision. It applies to all private schools, not just home schools.

@Humpleupagus @cowanon people shouldn't comply with the government because it is run by faggots and Jews, and the police who serve ZOG are evil
such paperwork is a basis for future controls and should be resisted to frustrate the kikes and all of the evil they have planned for children

Basically anyone can set up a private school, but you have to have credentials to teach other people children, that left open the option to create a private school for teaching ones own children. It was a loophole.

@Humpleupagus @cowanon @WandererUber @white_male I almost never see the law up here unless they are blocking a road due to fire evacuations. Must be the lack of niggers.

@Humpleupagus @cowanon registering kids is like registering guns, you just know the government wants to do gay shit and will use that list to find all the people they want to kill
people should escape Niggerfornia before the groundshakes, mexiniggers, dot niggers, nigger niggers, or government niggers get them

Guilty of being good parents in California. You shouldn't have to submit loophole paperwork to keep your kids away from the knife-happy spics and drag queen story hours in the public schools.

It's not specific to home schools. Like I said, all private schools must submit affidavits. That's just the way it evolved. I don't want the legislature touching it. 😬

It's just an agreement to appear. It's like being released on your own recognizance. It is not an admission of guilt.

@Humpleupagus @cowanon @WandererUber Is signing considered surrendering to impromtu judgement by the lawman or just confirmation of procedure had happened in such cases?

@Humpleupagus @cowanon @WandererUber That seems fair.

As far as I can see, that's all the officer was requiring in the video. The escalation was unnecessary, and I would beat the fuck out of any client who acted that way. There are more strategic places to defend. The cops are just the dogs. They have no power. They just follow orders.

I think the parents were just being hardheaded.
I saw a video a few weeks ago where an aussie refused to go in for a psych evaluation. He played it to a T. I was very pleased with his performance.
So my point isn't "just comply," but rather, choose your battles carefully and be strategic when you do.

I can't access nitter for whatever reason so no source.
Is that a case of shielding oneself with applicable bylaws or just being hard headed?
