I watched KZbin video about Popcorns last run and he said that there was people who would have paid 100 bucks just to watch him do his thing, man i would've paid 500 and did the hard work for him just to have watched popcorn do his thing.

I would have hung Popcorn's Jury until hell froze over. Don't let a Judge or anybody on the jury influence your decision. The founders gave us the RIGHT of Jury Nullification, protection from the government. The Judge works for the Corporation enforcing federal law to protect its revenue. We are under Uniform Commercial Codes, revenue, to the Corporation. The US incorporated in 1871. The IRS is a private corporation, a collection agency for the Privately Owned Federal Reserve.

Perfect example of Doing what you want for a living not being work. Only somebody enjoying what they were doing would work that Hard. Yes he's getting paid Good, but if he didn't enjoy it he'd be doing something else making less with way less work involved. Then look at his Self imposed standards, even when nobody would know the difference. He still has his Quality standard and he wouldn't bother making it if he couldn't meet his Quality.

They backed Popcorn into a corner. He was diagnosed with cancer then was going to be forced to go to prison for 18 months. That would have meant he would have been away from his wife and family with poor medical care in the prison, and probably die in there anyway. Hopefully his A-Model Fords will go to his kids. Guess Popcorn was too old and sick to just "disappear". They let 'em get away with "Fast & Furious", (illegal gun running), by our own gov't but they were sure to nail Popcorn.

Its was a human right when this country was founded, and now its against the law. read up on your history books my friend.
