In the land of insane, Bernard is King. Never have I seen anyone so eager to get into a legal battle with the .gov or call it “fun”.

Sure….file suit to retrieve the confiscated items, no doubt I’ll support that, I’ll send a MO to help out….but shit man, leave the ‘let the fun begin’ comments at home.

“We are not going to let the G-boys steal our gold and silver.” Do you think that helps your cause? “G-boys”?  Weren’t they a teen boy band in the 80′s? Come on?

How did Nicholson put it, “go crazy somewhere else we are all full up here”.

Here is the news.

Alert #19: June 20, 2008
Dear Liberty Dollar Supporters…

GREAT NEWS: The victims of the FBI Raid have filed a Rule 41(g) Motion for recovery of their property from the wrongful search and seizure! Let the fun begin!

Now, before I get into the meat of this rather extensive Alert, please do two things:

1) Read this whole Alert! It includes the Motion… the Tenth Anniversary… my retirement… things you may want to know about.

2) This is a very serious time for the Liberty Dollar. We really need your support, please. Our shopping cart had been dead since November and does not accept credit/debit cards. Liberty Dollar’s survival is in critical condition. Please support this effort by mailing in an order, making a contribution to the Contingency Club or just sending in a donation or all three!

Now here’s the news:

I am very pleased to inform you that a representative group of twelve victims (hereinafter Plaintiffs) having not received a reply to their Demand Letter have filed a Rule 41(g) Motion in Federal District Court in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho for the return of their property that was represented by either paper and/or digital warehouse receipts. They are proud to proclaim, “We are not going to let the G-boys steal our gold and silver.” In fact, while I have been unusually quiet for over a month, I have actually been diligently working with the plaintiff on Rule 41(g) Motion that was filed on June 17, 2008. Let the fun begin!!

Please click HERE for the Demand Letter, the Rule 41(g) Motion and all the Exhibits. (link coming soon)

The New York Sun also had this to say:

While it is common for agents to warehouse property seized during criminal investigations, such as firearms or surveillance equipment, the plaintiffs say coins of precious metal should be off-limits.

The coins “do not constitute contraband or other property subject to seizure,” the legal papers state, adding that the seizures violated the Fourth Amendment rights of the plaintiffs.
