You seem confused about who/what you are vs what you have/possess ?
You are a man. You are not a person. You possess a person / legal personnality. That means you CONTROL that person.
A person is a legal entity that the state creates for a man/woman after he/she starts living. It's a tool to exist / act / be abused in their commercial / legal / public debt slavery system.
That person was created after you started living, without your consent, by the state. They then went on to maje you believe, all your life, that you were that person. That person is the legal name. It's not yours. "He who creates sonething owns that thing". You can only use it.
Just like dollar bills aren't yours. They are state property.
Just like the drivers license isn't yours. Or any gøvt ID.
When you sign that name, or you ID as the person, you accept surety for that person.
When you use LEGAL TENDER NOTES (dollars) you accept the LEGAL TENDER THAT MONEY PROVIDES. The words THIS NOTE IS LEGAL TENDER mean "This piece of paper is an unconditional offer for law". If you use them, you accept to be bound by the acts, codes and statutes that back that money.
That's why Bitcoin and other crypto currencies are really so powerful.
So. Accepting SURETY means accepting to pay.
http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/surety
The LEGAL role of a surety is to discharge debts and/or charges addressed / brought up against a person. The LEGAL system is a game of SURETY and ACCOUNTING. They have a bunch of tricks they can use against your ignorance to make a man / woman accept surety for it's person.
A person is effectively a slave.
You have a slave in your pocket.
When you use it your are deemed to BE that slave.
We know slavery was abolished.
THAT is why every charter of rights, anywhere in the world, recognizes the right or every human being to his/her person's surety/security.
THAT IS PROOF THAT MEN/WOMEN ARE NOT SLAVES. And EVEN THE STATE RECOGNISES THIS RIGHT, it says so in it's OWN BULLSHIT MAGIC PAPERS !
Now, the challenge is to have this fundamental human right respected by the parasites who use the gøvernment to abuse good honest hard workin men and women. For that to happen, we need to help others learn the TRUTH.
You should all be very careful when you use words you BELIEVE you know the LEGAL meaning of. Here in REALITY, these words are meant to hurt you !
I haven't posted much on steemit yet, by my posts will primarily focus on SURETY, money/debt, slavery and human rights. stuff I have learned over the past 3-4 years and I've VERIFIED TO BE TRUE. Not just in my head, but by challenging the gøvernement about it.
And 
Read those articles. Don't ask yourself if it's the truth, find out WHY it's the truth ;)
Fun times ahead for sure !
