FBI targets "sovereign citizen extremist" in my town in Florida this summer. The FBI gives its criteria for what they consider to be a "sovereign citizen extremist". Very disturbing. While the story cites alleged violence by the man arrested, I did not hear him make any threat on the video link. There is an interesting addition to the story about a man and his teenage son traveling back to Clearwater. This incident with man and son ends in violence. It is interesting to see how they link the two stories together.

Six men say that 20 Chicago cops assaulted, Tasered and Maced them in a private home, with a helicopter hovering overhead, because the men had shouted that "the kids were OK" as cops patted down a group of 10- and 11-year-old kids on the street.
