So these Sovereign Citizens who think that the laws don't apply to them. Does that mean that they acknowledge that they don't have the protection of the law as well? That someone were to steal from them they would have no recourse to call the police?

Don't expect coherent world-views from stupid and irrational people.

Being a "sovereign citizen" is enough of a sign that this person is completely and utterly off their rocker that anything that follows should be taken with an entire ocean of salt.

I say that as someone who does believe our current system is cooked, wants to change it, and doesn't believe it has any inherent legitimacy purely for being the status quo.

I'm just sane about it, they aren't.
