TheOnly1, I think it could be important in establishing exactly why the Billings' were murdered. There are threads after threads with bits and pieces of info about this person and that person, and everyone agrees that they don't seem to have "enough in common" or " motive enough" to kill the Billings. But- IF Byrd Billings was paranoid with delusions of grandeur, then perhaps he did audaciously presumptuous and hurtful things to other people, or with others who also were extremists--for a period of time-- thinking it was his self- appointed sovereign right. Their belief systems were not usual or rational IF they believed what is printed in the Sovereign Manual.
An example of an educated anarchist- Timothy McVeigh. An example of a much less educated person who might be enthralled by McVeigh's writings is another type of anarchist- Eric Rudolph.
Both were psychologically disordered and deteriorated over a period of time, of course. Criminally insane, IOW. They could've co-existed as teacher and student for years.. but chances are, one would end up killing the other due to the nature of anarchy and the delusional thinking of " I am an entity unto myself".
I READ that crap the Billings' apparently believed. It takes a megalomaniac to believe they can pull off any of that stuff. I think the children's' names were part of it but only the tip of the iceberg.I think this is some sort of " snake eating its own tail" type of vendetta, certainly with anarchist activities ( extreme planning of a double murder and theft), among a bunch of people who may have shared Byrd's anti-government, anti-law, anti- USA sentiment due to their own miserable or tragic run-ins with organized government agencies. Their perceptions were that government is not to be trusted at all because of bad personal experiences.
It is extremism, but apparently the Billings' believed in a type of extremism which is mind-boggling, also.
A smart person would know how to find the angry and the disillusioned to use or to perhaps recruit. Legal and financial problems seem to be the one common denominator among the killing group. I'm wondering if maybe there was an attempt to organize a group of anarchists, including the Billings, which imploded from within. To death.
I don't know.. I'm just seeing things which cause alarm. Illegal adoptions, paid adoptions to welfare mothers ( illegal as well). Name changes, SSN changes, property deeds and liens which state " You owe me everything you are and have and will have for the rest of your life", signed Byrd Billings.
The threat of penalty for using the children's names on a mailed piece of paper. Maybe this ties into the surveillance cameras and alarm systems on the property. "KEEP OUT" of our world.
What kind of person forces someone in distress to sign over their assets for the rest of their life except a person who believes they have enormous personal power, and who is not considering the basic rights of others at all?
If I'm wrong, I'm sorry. But there are enough anomalies in the Billings' lives to make my head spin.
