I've never heard of this before. It almost sounds like the media is trying to paint everyone who is anti-Obama/government into one weirdo group.

http://www.10tv.com/content/stories/2013/05/20/columbus-sovereign-citzens.html

With that being said, I could see a few posters here being a part of this.
The Kanes were considered to be sovereign citizens, or people who decide which laws to obey and which ones to ignore.
Lot's of people decide to ignore laws every day. Speeding, jay walking, rolling stops, etc...
Special Agent Kenneth Smith investigates domestic terrorism for the FBI in central Ohio and says sovereign citizens often notify law enforcement of their beliefs prior to an incident ever taking place.

...

According to police, late last year a Genoa Township resident named Gabriel Pace filed a 28-page document with multiple law enforcement agencies, among those the Westerville Division of Police, indicating that certain laws do not apply to him.

...

According to his attorney, Pace denies any membership to sovereign organization.
So people who complain to the police are now terrorists? Am I missing something?

Their having fake ID shows they actually knew they are subject to the laws of the land. Phonies.
