Over the past six months members have filmed themselves entering or attempting to enter court houses, police stations, local council chambers and commercial offices across the country.

During these interactions, an NDA “sheriff” typically approaches a polite, but often confused, front desk worker to proclaim Australia is now a “demilitarised zone” and that all government authority has been dissolved before handing them a written notice.

The notice warns “failure to be fully compliant” with NDA’s rules “will certainly place you at severe risk of possible persecution, imprisonment or financial ruin”.

Over time, these interactions have become more confrontational.

Video seen by ABC Investigations showed police forcefully ejecting members of the group from Gympie Court House in May.

What in tarnation?

    I guess it’s a little bit like religion and a true belief in a god.

    If you truly believe it, then you are in a circle of faith, so to speak, and it doesn’t matter what anybody says, that is true to you in your heart, and you will live that life.

    So I guess for these people, if that is how they really are, they truly believe that the system is completely broken, and probably illegal, and they are trying to set up a new one I presume?

    I know some people that are in this kind of world, but different.

    Same, same, very different I guess you could say. And they are completely disenfranchised with the current political system and the corruption within it.

    That leads you to look elsewhere, and I guess like a church, when people are down and they go looking for help, the church will bring you in and the indoctrination begins.
