Topic: Happy Birthday - Posted by Ann Barnhardt

From October 27, 2012:

"Today is my 36th birthday.

Today is also the day that the IRS confiscated my bank account. I think that is positively poetic. Now you people know why I keep saying that this website won't be around much longer and YOU will have to rebuild after the collapse and war. This isn't a game. This is completely, totally real.

I heard it said recently that saints are people who put their money where their mouth is. I hope that's right. I pray that's right.

Here is this morning's online image from my Wells Fargo personal checking account. I anticipate the business accounts will be drained early next week, too. I further expect that any monies that I attempt to deposit into any of my bank accounts will be swept by the IRS. They claim my "bill" is into the six figures, so $20,000 to them is just the very, very beginning.



 They will also be coming after my car and my home.

I'm glad I bought a year's worth of freeze-dried food. Looks like I'm going to be needing it. But today, for my birthday, today will be a DOUBLE bacon cheeseburger day. And a strawberry malted.

    Judge me, O God, and distinguish my cause from the nation that is not holy: deliver me from the unjust and deceitful man. For Thou art God, my strength: why hast Thou cast me off? And why do I go sorrowful whilst the enemy afflicteth me? Send forth Thy light and Thy truth: they have conducted me, and brought me unto Thy holy hill, and into Thy tabernacles. And I will go in to the altar of God: to God who giveth joy to my youth. To Thee, O God my God, I will give praise upon the harp; why art thou sad, O my soul? And why dost thou disquiet me? Hope in God, for I will still give praise to him: the salvation of my countenance, and my God.

    Psalm 42 (Psalm 43 in Protestant Bibles)"

A modern day Joan of Arc, hope the outcome is a lot better though, that girl needs to stay active!

Now, I don't know the "facts" behind then IRS levy of Ann Barnhardt's accounts. It is possible that she owes several thousand dollars in taxes. All that being said, is it just me or do I find the heavy hand of then IRS coming down on outspoken conservatives as a sort of "message"?

She said she was not paying any more taxes, so, yes, she probably owes them.  And, she said she knew they'd be coming for her, but she was going to do it anyway.

I believe she said they were immoral for using her tax money to fund the slaughter of innocents.

[Glock32]

She has said that, yes. She has also said she does not expect to survive the next few years.

I am surprised Ann left any money in a bank account to be confiscated. Maybe its part of her "ride out to meet them strategy.

It would make more sense if she took the money from all of the accounts, put it in a safe in her home and told the IRS just where it was, and told them to come a get it.
And then when they come, she can get her shoot out and martyrdom. I have no confidence that  salvation is mine, and don't think going to an early reward is going to pay off for me. I will just Go Galt quietly and legally. Eat, Drink and be merry on the public dollar and wait for the collapse to wipe these morons from power, and hopefully from history.

Not so smart for a smart lady like Ann. The problem in this situation is you have several thousand dollars of checks outstanding and they all get returned "ISF." Holders of large returned checks have no recourse but to pursue Ann in Civil Court, or take their chances in Criminal Court trying to prove she knew she was writing a check with no funds.

I don't get it. Rational people seek out the counsel of an experienced bankruptcy attorney. If she files a 13 or 7, collection efforts stop an d in many cases, the IRS must refund any money collected until the judge sorts it out.

I don't get it.

The legal system is corrupt, I think bankruptcy court goes against her principles and the point of her stand, one could argue the irrational person is the person willing to subjugate themselves, their beliefs and principles to a corrupt state and that the rational person should be 100% opposed to that no matter the cost to person or possessions.  Ann went all in, no compromise.  Girl got guts and won't back down from her principles, gotta admire that.

Ann had a post about it... A number of people were emailing her with advice on attorneys, bankruptcy, etc, and she replied she was "Riding out to meet them"- just not paying taxes and letting the chips fall where they may-but she is making it too easy for them IMO. Once she didn't respond -some computer at the IRS probably emptied the bank accounts..no person probably looked at it for more than 10 seconds. I am sure she didn't (intentionally) write bad checks, and anyone doing business with Ann at this point <should> know enough to demand cash. However given Ann's stance, making it easy seems counter productive.  I certainly wouldn't make it that easy for them. Yeah, I have the funds, but you have to come take them in an armed raid--you bettcha that would take more than 10 seconds of IRS  time.

I suspect Ann knew exactly what she was doing by leaving the money where the IRS could get it.  For months, she's been telling everybody to put their money into hard goods, in their possession where it can be defended.

She's not stupid or negligent; I suspect she has a plan.  As far as making it easy "for them", I dunno; we'll see.

I seem to be saying that a lot these days, "we'll see".
