It isn’t that the American people, at least those who have some cognitive ability, don’t know the level of danger we face, how vulnerable the Biden/Obama Administration has made this nation, but that everything that could possibly be done to rectify it has been ignored.
“Americans can be some very brutal and innovative people in the arts of destruction, but they are not rash or impulsive enough when it comes to confronting their own government. Patriotism, in this case, is a detriment.”
You're a good man and you think and write clearly, great virtues these days. I fear in not too long life will become very cheap. At the appropriate time to "sell" your life dear may be all the recliner dudes can do.
I’ve come to terms with that at 60. That is the only way. I see nothing else (a parallel society?).
And, I’m a tough “bitch”. I got red pilled in 2007, and I worked as a cop in a blue city for 23 years (since 1998), and I was forced to retire because I didn’t comply with CONvid.
The trajectory is moving quickly, this is “the quickening”. Does time seem different to you, or is it just me?
I’ve always loved your commentary TL...you help me feel sane! Thank you my brother in Jesus Christ!
The restoration must be spiritual. We are all here at this time for a reason. May God and our angels guide us and strengthen us to fight. This is a spiritual war of goodness, love, and LIGHT, against all darkness and evil. I do not believe it’s physical. Every person has a part in this. The vibration of our hearts and MINDS must be elevated.
I think the new term for “collapse and restoration” is Build~Back~Better...but the truth is they can’t BBB until they’ve completely destroyed what exists now. My heart breaks for our nation and at nearly 60, I’m not sure what to do other than to prepare (to survive).
I've been reading on the Brighteon network about an EMT being self-employed by 'Murcans as a defensive weapon against the onslaught of AI atrocities predicted. Seems for every weapon system there remains that Achilles tendon of opportunity. While an EMT inspired outage (of nearly everything) might stave off a siege, it will also present huge problems to the "average" (completely uninformed) American-born pro sports fans.
At some point, we may as a Nation (Republic of Texas, perhaps?) be forced to make the hard choices of who we are able to preserve, and those who have been able, but unwilling, to show concern for their own family's safety in this clown-show world we're currently in may be a hard choice we are forced to make.
Just stay in the recliners, bitches, we got this. You'll get yours.
Prepping is a moral and ethical decision as much as a practical one. A genuinely concerned parent or caregiver should be willing to do whatever it takes to provide, and that will generally include murder or robbery of those who have prepared, to provide for those unprepared.
So, what side to you want to be on?
I don't want to have to defend my stuff, but you can bet I'll be passionate and thorough when I do.
Those "american values" that have been inculcated into the kids minds of the DIE and related alt-reality incarnations of the progressive death cult are not American by design, but are global, universal, for the purpose of drawing away the hearts and minds of men toward those distant, existential, esoteric principles held in perpetual negotiation with reality so that his heritage values can be subsumed by progress.
Much like a pack of coyotes might send a bitch to lure the guard dogs off the porch and into the woods where the pack waits. Once those guard dogs are gone the herd is in short order subject to a new master with a flavor for regular culling. The guard dogs of our heritage culture and values are long gone.
We spent 20 years in the goat patch for the "war on terror." And yet that rising progressive morality was right there too, insisting itself into the narrative. The girls over there should be in school. The whole goat splodey thing was only part of the power. The rest was harnessing the rapidly converging progressive orthodoxy here at home.
That men can't see the connection between bombing a people to rubble so that the girls might be doctors and lawyers with heaps of college debt and a triple-digit body count, and a dude with a rudder amidships winning swimming trophies back home is why we are losing.
The way I see it is the American values, moral universals, goodwill, and virtues including civic mindedness have all be captured and converged toward that cause of 'striving at the wind' meets new world order. The rugged individualism is now rational self-interest as expressed in purely economic terms. I'll get mine, you get yours. If there is a little overlap, great. If not, its zero-sum all the way down.
"We", as in the royal USA, are but an economic zone, a regulatory area in the global economy.
Expressing those old fashioned, sexist, racist, conservative, judgmental, and restrictive values in any institution is a way to get uninvited to happy hour and your next paycheck.
But worse, it is a way to run afoul of the feminized social order that runs everything. Getting uninvited to the couldesac BBQ because your badthink makes the wives have badfeels. How does one "fix" that? How does a man fix a society's values when his marriage is predicated on those same societal values?
Meanwhile, the constitution is a dead letter relative to the social order that has been codified in the manifold perversions of equality, from fedlaw to your HOA, and now resides in glass behind the behemoth permanent state tentacles backed by its monopoly on violence.
A man is free to do what he wants as long as it is congruent with the ever-changing moral code that underpins that social order. This renders most normal people as fungible units of consumption and production. An identity that they have accepted for a handful of magic beans because being a White Christian Man is de facto illegal.
But worse. Its low status. Now of course this isn't True, but it is true in the operating system to which nearly everyone subscribes through a contract of adhesion. What happens when those new terms of service get jammed on you? What, are you going to just stop being social or just bite your tongue a little harder?
Losing the culture war, the death by a thousand cuts of progressive orthodoxy incrementally replacing the moral and cultural stronghold institutions, has created not just a massive divide on what amounts to observable reality between the urban/suburban strivers and the dirt people of flyover, but it has simultaneously united us all under the hegemony of a paranoid, feminized, cluster-B monoculture of banal consumerism, perpetual distraction, and anxious status-signaling.
Texas hill country used to be different than Colorado western slope vs pacific northwest coastal vs new England etc. No more.
The moral ascendency of the occupying culture of the globo progressive death cult has both re-ordered the natural state - and arguably more importantly the social-order.
The problem is not just fixing a system that was designed to serve a people (who largely no longer exist) but it is also addressing what is well upstream of that system; Who are "We"?
A man that can't keep his daughter off the smart phone or his wife off the facebook is not going to gut the beast at the gates because the beast already at his dinner table.
As such, this war is already door-to-door, house by house, and so on. It resides in the heart of each man, that reckoning that either births the will or the submission.
In that there is some remnant of us that may find a way to forge an archipelago among the ruins of the dystopia, but there is simply not much time and not much room to maneuver within any aspect of the system. It is lonely road at times. But we walk with God. And through God we are brought together in his way and his time and to serve Him.
This has always been the way. I pray for my own little constellation of dissident stars. That we all find strength and the wisdom to know the time and place through all that is coming.
But alas, I am greedy and worldly too and long for days among men of like mind, building, and fixing, and providing. And some day God willing, around the fire at night with perhaps a few fat fingers of bourbon recalling those terrible times that brought us all together again in a great purpose worthy of our ancestor's blood and soil.
And 'rugged individualism' is part of what is sinking America now. I can remember this being drummed into our heads in school way back in the 1960s, as well as the 'melting pot' baloney. The destroyers were already training us not to act collectively, but rather to spurn any such actions. The goal was to train us not to think of ourselves as part of an American or White collective, but to separate us from our fellows to make us easier to control and ultimate to pick off.
I read through your comment 3 times, no less. You have a complicated mind
me thinks. No critique, for sure. Your last paragraph is stellar, and who wouldn't
agree with that? It isn't greedy, it is smart. Socializing? Between the vax, that flu,
and people buying into the whole spiel, the growing awareness of criminality from
stem to stern, these crazies insisting a windmill and a bag of bugs is the answer, and people are actually agreeing to all that...my socialization drive has ground to a halt. No real
problem with that...but frankness about stuff, and questions are not a good idea.
We become creatures of small talk and hopefully courtesy...speaking for myself anyway.
Maybe that is a good thing...I am willing to take direction from strong men, let them
talk and take the lead. I also believe women (most) belong at home supporting the
family rather than striving in the workplace. Nor do women need to vote, IMHO.
A complicated mind is a nice way of putting it, so thank you.
We are not supposed to be a lone and have a duty to our brothers and sisters but you express some of the many ways in which we have been driven toward the very difficult choices that all seem binary: submit to the hivemind or self-isolate, the paddock or the slaughterhouse, serve the evil system or become economically destitute.
In dark times this is likely the way it has always been. We have to be patient for those we care about and strangers alike to allow them to find their way on their path God has put before them.
And yet we must also discern this extension of grace from allowing the lies and sins to sit idle in our midst and to give shelter and resource to agents - even those unaware, of their service of advancing evil. It seems paradoxical.
The question of action and of what kind and in what vector comes up again and again. I don't know. I have a lot to get my own house in order. That is part of my verbose exposition; to reinforce the focal point closer to home. We cannot aggregate what does not exist individually.
The challenge I repeatedly encounter is that even most on "our" side of this great divide are really just upset with the price and terms - and not the essence of the underlying contract, they have entered into with the State/Progress and the associated arbiters of social status.
Be it racisms, or women's "rights", immigration, "Covid", or the theater of uniparty politic, the underlying condition is that most people think the current year troubles are a function of 'a bridge too far' as opposed to questioning whether or not crossing that river has improved our lives and thus our collective nation or not.
Unwinding the truth from the mythology is a huge undertaking on its own but within each of us we have to be honest about just how far back we are prepared to go in our own thinking and then how we bring those values into congruence with our daily lives. What that will cost us. There is always a trade-off. A price to be paid for upholding one's principles.
I know many who say they are "red pilled" from the pangolinpox psyop. And yet when that discontent is plumbed it reveals that they are really just pissed about paying all that private school tuition for their designer child and having the school send him home for a year.
They want to end "tyranny" by going all the way back to 2018. It is the same way that the Orange Man Bad is a symptom and not a cause.
We are all just trying to get by. Do we have time or headspace to re-litigate the Enlightenment, the intrinsic flaws of liberal democracy, the 19th amendment, Our Greatest Strength's obvious failings of the multi-cultural representative republic, killing God and replacing with self-deism, fractional reserve fiat currency, and so on.
Not exactly casual dinner table subjects, and yet to restore toward the Truth requires a reckoning of these ideas we have about self-organizing and human nature that at least approaches to the headwaters of these questions.
Even if that exploration indicts part of our own moral being, that of the purpose of our "nation", and of material comforts that have perhaps clouded our senses to the obvious signals that the current order is deeply flawed.
But then we come full circle. It is a fallen, cursed world. The secular progressive religion that dominates has no answer but MOAR. As a Christian I know the answer. But to live it - and to live it as a people, is a monumental task.
I could go on but have already polluted our hosts boards enough! We are not the majority, but there are many of us. Providence will continue to bring us together.
I used to repeat a phrase I picked up online from westernrifleshooters.us back before the original .com site was sabotoged ....
"Just because the shiat has not hit you in the face doesn't mean it hasn't hit the fan." but it does seem that "the shiat hasn't hit the fan until it hits you in the face."
The frustrations of the Domestic injustices and tyrannies of the past 30 years keep mounting ......
To What End ???
At some point someone,somewhere "shoulda-coulda-woulda" as Hilarity rotten Clintoon taunted after the statue of limitations had expired on the Whitewater Scandal, ........ do something. But What???
We are merely repeating the Lament of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn .....
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
The FIB/KGB Jan 6 Arrests are Still Ongoing Today since 2021. At Waco the "Deplorables" were murdered and burned alive by the Clintoon Regime under orders of their Atty Gen Janet Reno.
and I can only Spit in frustration until "It" comes to my door, then "the hammer falls.", regadless ....
Spot on! Most have no knowledge of survival or self sufficiency. Most will stay in the recliner and continue to absorb the propaganda they are being fed. The grid going down would definetly be a game changer. When the lights go out its an ultimate oh crap moment. Growing up on a farm we would experience power outages for up to 2 weeks due to storms. You learn and remember. When you finally comprehend that NO ONE is coming to save you it is a little late to start thinking about what you will do. Sounds paranoid to some but everytime I come home I look at my property for weak areas and areas for concealment. That among others is a mental game that I play constantly.
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” - Joshua 1:9
"No one is hated more than he who speaks the Truth" -Plato
I believe that " reality" is what the majority of people believe it to be. I also believe that what we have today is a crisis in thinking. We need to think differently.
I believe that the reality we find ourselves in has been formed by the thoughts of the millions of people who have succumbed to the propaganda constantly shot into us by the elite in the form of movies, TV, news, educational system, cellphone content, etc and that, like Saul on the road to Damascus, blinders have been placed on their eyes.
We must reach those people one or two at a time and if you only open one or two people's eyes a week you are NOT a failure.
I believe you do that in your essays, (many of which I share btw), so do NOT quit, do not give up. Soldier on!
I urge everyone who reads these comments to find me on Substack and read about some of the psychologocal weapons you can use in our war, (yes, I am degreed in psychology, and biology as well), and start using them. One of those weapons is the use of words which you are really good at.
And, to everyone who reads my words, I highly, strongly and even more highly: get a subscription, if only for month, to GAIA. (Internet or Smart TV),Find a show called MISSING LINKS by Gregg Bradon, and watch it and learn from it. Each "lecture" is only 30 minutes. If you watch the first two seasons it WILL change your lives and you will learn of a lot more "weapons". It definitely re-motivated me to fight even more in this war and to NEVER SURRENDER.
To paraphrase Winston Churchill "I will fight them on the water, I will fight them in the air. I will fight them on the beaches. I will fight them in the hills and in the forests. I will NEVER, EVER SURRENDER, NEVER!"
Food and water... or the lack thereof... will be the catalyst for action. One way or another throughout history, EVERY civil revolution situation has come about from inequity… but primarily food. When the inequity gets to food and the lack or shortage, there is no way to avoid the violence… unless an outside source corrects the shortage. Food along with water are the most important. And our water situation is more complicated and precarious than food, if you look deeply into it.
Unfortunately, there is no way out of this deteriorating situation without force of arms, in my opinion. I did not want to spend my last years thinking or dealing with that as I lived in a country for three years that went through this turmoil. I hope we can avoid it, but I don't think so. Along with collateral issues of grid down infrastructure, no electrical power or communications, disease hysteria or reality, financial hyper-inflation, etc, etc. ...think of being hit by issues from all sides that you can't even imagine at present.
So, STOCK UP ON FOOD AND WATER and form your own area defense group. Find combat veterans to come to your home through your area churches or universities for the time when the Schumer Hits The Fan. Younger guys mostly because of the elderly age of many of my neighbors. Go slowly and find the hard core of your neighborhood that are not "Offended" by talk of defending your neighborhood. Those are the "Conservatives" we've kicked out of one of our groups because they lived in the California Septic Tank for so long, that even after they climbed out of it and moved here... they still reek of shytte. All you hear from them is... "You can't do that!" or "Is that legal?"
You can't "Lone Wolf" defend your home and family. Once Intruders are inside your neighborhood, you cannot defend against them easily. Watch for neighborhood "snitches" and keep your supply and weapons situation to yourself until the time comes.
I have organized both... my neighbors and my own group of veterans. In fact I help with two groups. It sometimes feels like trying to move a wheelbarrow full of frogs with the neighbors. I've told my veterans... "bring your wife, girlfriend and children. You'll have to sleep on the floor of my house. You'll eat equally well or we'll all starve equally... but I command and control this. PERIOD!" Radio communications are critical and we've set up a radio network.
I believe the righteous and believers in The Constitution, Individual Liberties and the Lord, Jesus and the Holy Spirit will prevail. I know I'm right... because I got out of countless situations because of Them, not form my soldiering capabilities. If not for them, my bones would be bleaching in the African sun.
Stan Symanski of Encouraging Angels (an organization I support that he runs for the disabled) and I are putting together a series of posts that will be along the lines of “Wargaming the Collapse of America.” What we think will happen of the many faceted issues and how to cope with them.
All of this aside… Merry Christmas to all and prepare for a successful New Year!”
Keep a positive attitude, my Friends.

You're a good man and you think and write clearly, great virtues these days. I fear in not too long life will become very cheap. At the appropriate time to "sell" your life dear may be all the recliner dudes can do.
Quite so dear Sir,
Swords stabbing at clouds? That is about it, is it not? I do think a spectacular
disruption is necessary/required for most to get out of the easy chair and do some
fast thinking.
It must fall.
I’ve come to terms with that at 60. That is the only way. I see nothing else (a parallel society?).
And, I’m a tough “bitch”. I got red pilled in 2007, and I worked as a cop in a blue city for 23 years (since 1998), and I was forced to retire because I didn’t comply with CONvid.
The trajectory is moving quickly, this is “the quickening”. Does time seem different to you, or is it just me?
I’ve always loved your commentary TL...you help me feel sane! Thank you my brother in Jesus Christ!
You're welcome! I wish it were otherwise, but you're right, they went insane with Covid and the only solution now is collapse and restoration.
The restoration must be spiritual. We are all here at this time for a reason. May God and our angels guide us and strengthen us to fight. This is a spiritual war of goodness, love, and LIGHT, against all darkness and evil. I do not believe it’s physical. Every person has a part in this. The vibration of our hearts and MINDS must be elevated.
Thank you for listening! ✝️
I think the new term for “collapse and restoration” is Build~Back~Better...but the truth is they can’t BBB until they’ve completely destroyed what exists now. My heart breaks for our nation and at nearly 60, I’m not sure what to do other than to prepare (to survive).

@Gabby,
Agreed, we have been trained up to the max. We also have been trained to
to use the correct pronouns, and go along to any insane social paradigms
that the crazies dream up. Trans "men" competing in sports against women?
Why can't people reject that premise out of hand? That people embrace the
equity BS to the level of the absurd is what divides me from my brethren and
makes me avoid many people. Are the destroyers responsible for what the
peeps actually embrace? The stupidity, it burns.

Not exactly casual dinner table subjects, and yet to restore toward the Truth requires a reckoning of these ideas we have about self-organizing and human nature that at least approaches to the headwaters of these questions.
Even if that exploration indicts part of our own moral being, that of the purpose of our "nation", and of material comforts that have perhaps clouded our senses to the obvious signals that the current order is deeply flawed.
But then we come full circle. It is a fallen, cursed world. The secular progressive religion that dominates has no answer but MOAR. As a Christian I know the answer. But to live it - and to live it as a people, is a monumental task.
I could go on but have already polluted our hosts boards enough! We are not the majority, but there are many of us. Providence will continue to bring us together.

@ Dangerous,
"We cannot aggregate what does not exist individually"...
Individuals are not relating to the true horror we collectively face. Individuals may well
be hoping for the return to 2018. Perhaps the absurdity of the agenda, as laid out and pushed,
is so perverse that individuals can't take that seriously, and dismiss it? Or they may be so
hooked on sports ball, or they are just too beleaguered to know what is being proposed,
or know nothing about anything. What we need is a mass of people fed up and refusing to
comply with anything alien anymore. You note racism, women's rights, immigration, Covid,
(can we use that word now?)...add climate change, insect farms, 15" cities, Translife, education
norms...it goes on, and it is so easier to ignore it all for the absurdity and the anxiety it all
creates and get on with the daily tasks of life and yes, surviving it all.
I have to stick with my theory that a catastrope must occur before people, at the least,
get angry and spout off. Spout off about being fed up, and refusing anymore of the games.
Indeed, people must go to the root rather than focus on the results of ignoring what has
gone past them over the last decades. The problems have always existed, but they were
in the backround somewhere, and didn't try to destroy us in an open and clear way. We
benefitted from the staus quo, and let our "leaders" run amok, trusting those were a minority
and the good would win out...well we were wrong, and our ignorance has all but defeated
us/our stupidity and complacency could be our downfall. We start by employing a new
"mindfullness" and doing our share of research. Otherwise we are truly doomed.
Stream of consciousness, as the excuse for poor grammer and punctuation.
Thanks Dangerous/you rock
Excellent, thank you.
I used to repeat a phrase I picked up online from westernrifleshooters.us back before the original .com site was sabotoged ....
"Just because the shiat has not hit you in the face doesn't mean it hasn't hit the fan." but it does seem that "the shiat hasn't hit the fan until it hits you in the face."
The frustrations of the Domestic injustices and tyrannies of the past 30 years keep mounting ......
To What End ???
At some point someone,somewhere "shoulda-coulda-woulda" as Hilarity rotten Clintoon taunted after the statue of limitations had expired on the Whitewater Scandal, ........ do something. But What???
We are merely repeating the Lament of Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn .....
“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?... The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If...if...We didn't love freedom enough. And even more – we had no awareness of the real situation.... We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”
The FIB/KGB Jan 6 Arrests are Still Ongoing Today since 2021. At Waco the "Deplorables" were murdered and burned alive by the Clintoon Regime under orders of their Atty Gen Janet Reno.
and I can only Spit in frustration until "It" comes to my door, then "the hammer falls.", regadless ....
as the consequences are inconsequental.
Spot on! Most have no knowledge of survival or self sufficiency. Most will stay in the recliner and continue to absorb the propaganda they are being fed. The grid going down would definetly be a game changer. When the lights go out its an ultimate oh crap moment. Growing up on a farm we would experience power outages for up to 2 weeks due to storms. You learn and remember. When you finally comprehend that NO ONE is coming to save you it is a little late to start thinking about what you will do. Sounds paranoid to some but everytime I come home I look at my property for weak areas and areas for concealment. That among others is a mental game that I play constantly.

I believe that " reality" is what the majority of people believe it to be. I also believe that what we have today is a crisis in thinking. We need to think differently.
I believe that the reality we find ourselves in has been formed by the thoughts of the millions of people who have succumbed to the propaganda constantly shot into us by the elite in the form of movies, TV, news, educational system, cellphone content, etc and that, like Saul on the road to Damascus, blinders have been placed on their eyes.
We must reach those people one or two at a time and if you only open one or two people's eyes a week you are NOT a failure.
I believe you do that in your essays, (many of which I share btw), so do NOT quit, do not give up. Soldier on!
I urge everyone who reads these comments to find me on Substack and read about some of the psychologocal weapons you can use in our war, (yes, I am degreed in psychology, and biology as well), and start using them. One of those weapons is the use of words which you are really good at.
And, to everyone who reads my words, I highly, strongly and even more highly: get a subscription, if only for month, to GAIA. (Internet or Smart TV),Find a show called MISSING LINKS by Gregg Bradon, and watch it and learn from it. Each "lecture" is only 30 minutes. If you watch the first two seasons it WILL change your lives and you will learn of a lot more "weapons". It definitely re-motivated me to fight even more in this war and to NEVER SURRENDER.
To paraphrase Winston Churchill "I will fight them on the water, I will fight them in the air. I will fight them on the beaches. I will fight them in the hills and in the forests. I will NEVER, EVER SURRENDER, NEVER!"

Thank you, very good, feel free to leave links, sharing information is what makes this site effective.
Food and water... or the lack thereof... will be the catalyst for action. One way or another throughout history, EVERY civil revolution situation has come about from inequity… but primarily food. When the inequity gets to food and the lack or shortage, there is no way to avoid the violence… unless an outside source corrects the shortage. Food along with water are the most important. And our water situation is more complicated and precarious than food, if you look deeply into it.
Unfortunately, there is no way out of this deteriorating situation without force of arms, in my opinion. I did not want to spend my last years thinking or dealing with that as I lived in a country for three years that went through this turmoil. I hope we can avoid it, but I don't think so. Along with collateral issues of grid down infrastructure, no electrical power or communications, disease hysteria or reality, financial hyper-inflation, etc, etc. ...think of being hit by issues from all sides that you can't even imagine at present.
So, STOCK UP ON FOOD AND WATER and form your own area defense group. Find combat veterans to come to your home through your area churches or universities for the time when the Schumer Hits The Fan. Younger guys mostly because of the elderly age of many of my neighbors. Go slowly and find the hard core of your neighborhood that are not "Offended" by talk of defending your neighborhood. Those are the "Conservatives" we've kicked out of one of our groups because they lived in the California Septic Tank for so long, that even after they climbed out of it and moved here... they still reek of shytte. All you hear from them is... "You can't do that!" or "Is that legal?"
You can't "Lone Wolf" defend your home and family. Once Intruders are inside your neighborhood, you cannot defend against them easily. Watch for neighborhood "snitches" and keep your supply and weapons situation to yourself until the time comes.
I have organized both... my neighbors and my own group of veterans. In fact I help with two groups. It sometimes feels like trying to move a wheelbarrow full of frogs with the neighbors. I've told my veterans... "bring your wife, girlfriend and children. You'll have to sleep on the floor of my house. You'll eat equally well or we'll all starve equally... but I command and control this. PERIOD!" Radio communications are critical and we've set up a radio network.
I believe the righteous and believers in The Constitution, Individual Liberties and the Lord, Jesus and the Holy Spirit will prevail. I know I'm right... because I got out of countless situations because of Them, not form my soldiering capabilities. If not for them, my bones would be bleaching in the African sun.
Stan Symanski of Encouraging Angels (an organization I support that he runs for the disabled) and I are putting together a series of posts that will be along the lines of “Wargaming the Collapse of America.” What we think will happen of the many faceted issues and how to cope with them.
All of this aside… Merry Christmas to all and prepare for a successful New Year!”
Keep a positive attitude, my Friends.

“When an animal calls out a warning of danger, unseen to other animals, the others don’t question the motive as their instincts are still intact. When a human warns other humans, because precursors of issues that have repeatedly caused Mankind great harm and suffering throughout history are evident again, they laugh and call him a conspiracy theorist, because their instincts have been rendered useless.”
