Anyone else find this stuff amusing?
Here's a few of the Yes/No questions:

Do you intend to engage in the U.S. in:
a. espionage?
b. any activity a purpose of which is opposition to, or the control or overthrow of, the governemtn of the United States, by force, violence or other unlawful means?

Have you ever engaged in genocide, or otherwise ordered, incited, assisted or otherwise participated in the killing of any person because of race, religion, nationality, ethnic origin, or political opinion?

Do you plan to practice polygamy in the U.S.?

Theres more too!

Isn't that like, when you file your taxes, they ask you to report any money stolen or embezzled?

I know those questions sound funny, but if the INS/IRS catches you, they probably would use this as evidence that you lied because these forms require the user to sign an affirmation that they are telling the truth.

I know what you mean but if they catch you doing any of those things, I think you'll have more stuff to worry about than lying on a form. (Though the penalty for lying on the forms are pretty high)
