Oathkeeper story a hoax to discredit them?

Please be careful of a elaborate hoax to discredit Oath Keepers!

A trusted Marine vet source sent the following:

I am doing some research myself into this matter

So far I have found this,

The document is a forgery or has been altered/photoshopped. [link to www.prisonplanet.com]

I am not referring to the redactions for privacy – I’m referring to Count #7 that references Oath Keepers. It is done in an entirely different font, size and typeset, but most importantly, it is at the bottom of the page and encroaches into the mandatory 1″ bottom margin required for all court documents. No one would have submitted a document like that without the require 1″ margin. Such a procedural breach as to format would result in the Affidavit being thrown out.

I have a feeling OK has been a victim of an elaborate hoax. I suggest that anyone with direct access to Mr. Rhodes contact him immediately and tell him this. This will damage OK’s reputation, perhaps irrevocably.

Yes, however I am wondering if we have looked into the possibility that the document was doctored as claimed?

WE??
Stewart Rhodes has seen enough to make a statement. I'm a dumb hick. He is a Harvard Lawyer, and he said he saw it, or saw enough to believe he had a case to say so.
It is confirmed that the child was snatched. Though the reasons are questionable.

There are honest questions of corruption that could shake the state and the country.

and you are worried about about an forum post.
:confused:

Just to add to that:

Yep, it does appear that Stewart Rhodes has seen the unedited document(s), but he has not released them for privacy reasons. He has confirmed that the OathKeepers were referenced in a document, which is the main issue for him.

The taking of the baby appears to be a far more complex issue, with the always outstanding issue of the legality of the process of taking people's children in general.
 
It's not a hoax, in that their baby really was taken ...

However what I think happened, is Steward panicked once his baby was taken, and tried to use every possible way to get attention to this (even if it meant creating a story such that it would get another groups attention). So he might have IMPLIED that Oath Keeper association was the reason for the baby's theft, as to hopefully get the support of a very large organization of people defending him. However I don't think he is even an Oath Keeper himself so it may be grasping.

definitely a possibility. Until we can confirm the legitimacy of the documents in question there's really no point in arguing. I see some ready to give their life savings and go on a pitch fork wielding rampage without all the facts, and that is certainly frightening. Keep your heads guys.

Corrected! :)
