Cindy Sheehan Announces to Crowd at Occupy Rose Bowl: ‘I Haven’t Paid My Income Taxes’ in Nearly Eight Years

Speaking at Occupy Rose Bowl, anti-war activist Cindy Sheehan announced before a crowd of protesters that she hasn’t paid her income taxes since her son, U.S. Army Specialist Casey Sheehan, was killed in Iraq in 2004. Sheehan went on to justify her tax evasion by stating that she would not fund “the crimes against humanity” she claims are perpetrated by the U.S. government and military.

It is safe to assume, however, that the IRS doesn’t care what her reasons are, and will likely be knocking on the activist’s door sometime in 2012.

      Cindy, you can join Tim Geithner and many of the other liberal luminaries who just don’t or just conviently forget to pay their taxes. You fit right in.

      Why does that Sheehan woman look like Dana Carvey? Poor thing went nuts when her son lost his life in Iraq and has lost her husband when he decided that his wife no longer had any honor even for her own son’s last measure of devotion to a country she owes everything. But she has either forgotten or never knew that freedom is not free. The tree of liberty must be watered by the blood of patriots and tyrants, alike.

      No. As much as one might be tempted to excuse her behavior, Sheehan was a communist BEFORE her son enlisted. She’s a life-long true believer.

      The interesting thing about people who reject laws is more often than not those people end up making more laws than the original one’s they rejected with more tyranny. That‘s why America’s Founders were so unique, because they didn’t do that.

    People really should learn the law and Constitution before being experts on it .
    Superstitious belief is a bitch for most people. “Unless the defendant can establish that he is not a citizen of the United States, the IRS possesses authority to attempt to determine his federal tax liability…”  UNITED STATES v. SLATER, 545 F.Supp. 179, 50 A.F.T.R.2d 82-5353, 82-2 USTC P 9571

    Who here doesn’t know the difference between a “citizen of the United States” and an “American Citizen” ? “The Congress finds that –
            ”(1) United States citizens living abroad should be provided
    fair and equitable treatment by the United States Government with
    regard to taxation, citizenship of progeny, veterans’ benefits,
    voting rights, Social Security benefits, and other obligations,
    rights, and benefits; and
    “(2) United States statutes and regulations should be designed
    so as not to create competitive disadvantage for individual
    American citizens living abroad or working in international
    markets.”
