Wow. I love all the weasel words, ‘if it doesn’t work it’s not my fault!’. I am not a lawyer, but even I could find several inconsistencies in that mess. Not to mention, maybe don’t take ‘legal’ advice from someone who makes so many spelling errors.
The very first paragraph describes how you can be deprived of your second amendment right to arms.
If you assert that you aren’t a US citizen, why would you give a flying fuck about the second amendment? It certainly wouldn’t apply to you.
The crazy part about this shit is that they literally receive no benefits by being difficult.
If the copper moonshine oath didn’t work, I don’t know what to tell you.
It’s a website where they sell moonshine equipment AND sovcit passports. Of course.
So we destroyed your valid US passport. That’ll be a $170+ for a new one, but at least you have the comfort of knowing that you stuck to your copper moonshine. Oy.
New Orleans passport in Virginia? Wut
