Still here in boarded downtown.

I wouldn't have known since I haven't used Google in years.

I was referring to the ICVM website.

Is there any information on this? A "change of leadership" in the lead up to the election is concerning. Who controls the website? It hasn't been updated in awhile. Stuff like this should be on there.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I'm aware of the III%. I'm not sure it's for me at the current moment. I wonder if ICVM is still active? Their website is all but dead.

You can't call it the other foot when back then the Democrats were still the party of the KKK and Jim Crow laws. I'd wager there were more blues than red at those riots.

Welfare programs are over half the entire federal budget. Social Security is not secure; the program isn't even a century old and it's already dying. My father is only guaranteed 75% of his pay in. I'll be lucky to get that when I'm of age. My kids less. The idea from its core is flawed like socialism. It is a tumor sucking out the nutrients of the system. That money could go to people working on improving life, infrastructure, science, and job creation. Not robbing under-performing people of the impetus to try harder and paying them to boot. Modern US antifa is the result of social security. Coasting on the minimum in a pre-UBI UBI. Rioters are getting paid unemployment to riot. Guns and gear are being purchased to kill cops and innocent people because of social security. Welfare is a complete failure on purpose and implementation.

It's the landfill argument. The cost of recycling in terms of pollution for nearly all non-trivial items is more than just making a new item from scratch. You don't have the pollution of the recycling in the mix. We could put all trash in the US into a single landfill some 50 miles across for the next 100 years and cause less pollution than recycling every item during that period. During which, we could improve recycling technology with the spare change of the money we saved by not forcing over-polluting recycling programs, inefficient factories and the like.

One day, we will have little machines inside us. Regulating all manner of things, but mostly intercepting toxins and infections far faster than our bodies could. But then, we will have to purposefully infect ourselves with disease to keep our immune system at a certain level or simply breathing itself would overwhelm even our technology. We do this already with exercise and diet. Once life was difficult enough most people were fit or at least not fat. Our entire species has become so lazy and well-fed, the majority of us has to actively hurt and starve ourselves to appear healthy.

Welfare just makes the dumb, lazy, and unhealthy, dumber, lazier, and unhealthier. For every success story of welfare, you have a thousand zombies. The success stories are not worth the horde. Especially if you worked really hard and paid a lot of money to make those just below the success line literate enough to google how to make Molotov cocktails.

State parks are a tricky subject because I love state parks. I also love chocolate as do most. But I don't think we should all be given People's Chocolate for the good of society. I believe I would allow them to be sold off as long as there were two rules in place at the federal level. 1) At least 33% of a state's land area must be designated public parkland (a code like residential, commercial) and 2) the price entry can be no more than the average daily cost of electricity in that state for the previous year. (The national kw/h average is $0.14, for example.) The parks are no longer the financial burden of all people, but those interested in parks and nature preserves. And by the strength of the company's marketing department. Groups can sponsor parks to reduce or eliminate the ticket price (as already happens). And should the people of an area or state not care for their parks, that's the will of the people. Not the will of a handful. 

It's not the state's job to make the people's lives better. It's the state's job to prevent external disruption of the people's lives as the people consider it--Utah Mormons have different priorities than LA screenwriters, after all. Nations protect the people from other nations. Our states are supposed to protect us from the federal government. Not be double-layered nannies.

I'm not against action. Just actions that will obviously lead to jail time for militia members where a commie DA won't drop the charges. The Flag Day sounds like a reverse-4chan op to put militiamen in harm's way in front of a camera. As you can see, it's not like I have suggestions of my own for this. I'm just pointing out the flaws I see. No one cares that the man in the vehicle at the Charlottesville riot had a rifle pointed at him by a leftist. This fact has been proven over and over in the last months. Self-defense arguments don't work on the left. They don't work on the media. They don't even accept the definition that what you were doing was self-defense.

So unless you're calling something a lot bigger. Which, if you are, you're on way too public of a forum for such. I'd rather see it be a civilian event surreptitiously organized indirectly by militias. Antifa attacks that and its bad for all facets of their side. And we can aid, not as militia, but Americans. It's why I don't join the Threepers. I don't want to be beholden to any insignia that can taint the objective.

The fact modern militia's rose in 1990 of all times is that in 1990 the Supreme Court ruled against the state, giving the federal government broad powers of the National Guard--seen by most as the de facto modern militia--neutering a state-controlled military-style force. The right saw this as a step too far and resurrected the militia concept in response.

It wasn't, and isn't, about democrats or progressives. It was, and is, about constitutional rights of the people and the state.

It makes you wonder on some of these movies like demolition man if it's hidden messages of warning. Call me crazy but that movie is spot on to what's going on today for the most part.

The media establishment has shown itself adept at producing a plethora of "warnings" that are actually just seeding the idea. How many anti-homosexuality films had known gay actors? How many of those warning films end and begin with no real change to the status quo? 1984 ends with no change. Animal Farm ends with no change. Brave New World; nothing changes. Fahrenheit 451 doesn't have change as much as the results of a war. V For Vendetta? Nadda. So on and so on.

The Tree of Liberty needs not only refreshing, but reseeding. Generations of extraordinary success has stripped the roots of its soil. We are all the Rich Kids compared to generations of old. Our love of free thinking let subversion within our ranks because "good idea float, bad idea sink". Well, lies fly higher than either. And seventy years of lies have poisoned the very earth our nation's soul had flourished within.

The reason there is a deep divide between the growing factions of our nation is because the very definitions of our core concepts that we share have diametrically opposed meanings. Love, honor, loyalty, even race, and gender. It's like dealing with an alien race from a different universe. One side attacks the very meaning of what is "right". It's all a gray area until they are in charge. Freedom is a concept. Liberty is a concept. The American way of life is a concept. And until we have restored the basic principle of logic by removing--the meaning of which can be varied--those who attack logic itself, we can never restore the basic concepts of the American Life.

@ WinterPatriot My issue is how you phrase things and the specifics of what your reference while phrasing things. It feels like a liberal playing conservative writing copious, over-scripted forum posts trying to spur militia members to "action" that could cause damage the cause in the end.

This isn't a personal attack. I'm not the site admin nor moderator nor militia leader. I'm not trying to muscle you out of the "game". I just feel like something is off. Maybe you've got Aspergers (or I'm undiagnosed) and we're just rubbing each other the wrong way.

You don't have to win me over to succeed either as a patriot or plant. We both could be the most conservative, active militia members in the world and still not like each other. But as long as you post things that feel off to me, I'm going to point them out. That's what free thinkers do.

I've moved to downtown Indianapolis recently. Looking for ranges for handgun and rifle practice within an hour's drive. I'm also training my fiance how to use a handgun and shotgun, so I'm also looking for an outdoor range. An internet search gives me a list, but suggestions and recommendations are much appreciated.

Act Blue is digging its own grave anyway. Over half of its donations last year came from "unemployed" people. (It's a search, so you can choose your own news source). This should grow and be an awful legal issue for them moving forward. Either they plug the hole in misreporting one's employment status properly so they don't get sued into the ground. Or they have to stop taking the donations as "unemployed" thereby preventing the bad (and likely foreign) sources from fueling most of their organization. Either way, they lose a majority of their donations. Akin to how The Clinton Foundation lost most of its donations immediately after Clinton didn't win 2016 and it has never recovered.

The reason conservatives are so "disunited" is because they don't have the Liberal Mind Virus. They don't have the urge nor compulsion to think the same beyond a small handful of issues such as family, faith, and the role of the government. (That last one, @WinterPatriot, puts you at odds with majority of conservatives since you clearly hold a vastly more liberal view of the involvement of the government within its peoples' affairs.)

While this topic could be picked apart since it isn't entirely correct as to history. It is correct enough to allow for the uneven distribution of conservative responses to their way of life being dismantled by outside forces. Conservatives respect freedom. Liberals do not. 

The only thing one truly has to do to cause any and every liberal action to fail is wait.

Let's organize a big, advertised demonstration that will result in antifa attacking militias all over the country. Giving left-wing media ample video of militia members--particular those of the well-known miliitias--beating down antifa members.

While we doing the enemy's PR for them, let's collect all the emails of important militia and militia sympathizers for a third party organization that specifically advertises itself as "not a militia" with an over-produced website full of stock diversity photos.

See, this is the shit I'm talking about.

"Let's go back to the original constitution."

But then:

"How 'bout we add a little communism. Just a drop."

You're a plant.

I [...] don't think [...] belittling them will 'disrupt' them very much

Said of the side that invited safe spaces and cry closets. Cancel culture isn't the result of an ideology with thick skin. It doesn't matter if a deranged antifa deprived of thought and health is akin to a rapid dog. The angrier they are, they dumber they are. And they were already dumb enough to join the ideology to begin with.

Too many of the things you say are subtly against everything militias stand for. I'm marking you down.

Ol' Sun Tzu says to disrupt your enemy. And nothing disrupts a leftist like being belittled. So DO laugh at antifa. 

We see how well they "regulate" our second amendment rights. 

The p(l)andemic has homeschooling up considerably around the country. This will have a profound effect on the future.

Pro tip: No one calls themselves a "boogaloo type".

We need to wear  recognizable clothing if we go to a rally or demonstration.  I don't want to punch a fellow Patriot in the face.  Or worse, shoot a fellow Patriot. 

Any set uniform would be co-opted by Antifa for counter-operations. A "uniform" should be decided among the group going to an event as close to the event date as possible. And it should be different every time. A red arm band this day. A green hat that day.

It’s very literally not...

 

An·ti·fa

/ˈan(t)ēˌfä,ˌanˈtēfə/

 

noun

1. a political protest movement comprising autonomous groups affiliated by their militant opposition to fascism and other forms of extreme right-wing ideology.

Fascism is a left-wing ideology like socialism and communism. So right there you have a problem with the definition.

Thanks for creating an account today just to post misinformation.

We're not the military. Nor hive mind drones. 

They can "not fuck around" themselves to death by cops and federal agents. 

Don't attribute to malice what can be better attributed to stupidity. Leftists are infected with the Mind Virus; they think alike to a degree that shouldn't be possible in humans. The government leftists and the big tech leftists don't need to meet in dark alleys or even email threads to act in similar ways. "Great minds think alike." In this case, infected minds.

When Facebook bans a certain group. Then Twitter bans the same group. Followed by Youtube and others. It's not typically coordinated. The others groups are virtue signaling their compliance while regretting they didn't do it first. The Leftist ideology is that of the mob. Individual mob members are cowards. The CEOs of leftists big tech companies aren't incompetent or stupid. They each know mass-banning the same group across the internet generates more bad press than good regardless of whatever particular group it is. 

HR department grunts, Trust & Safety Council members are idiots. They flog the ban button like a kid discovering masturbation. It's a circle jerk of idiots. Which puts the CEOs in a tight spot. Leftist or not, Twitter is a company. A company that doesn't make much money. Its shareholder might virtue signal a good game. But when they lose millions a year propping up failure, eventually the woke back breaks. And it wasn't a very strong spine to begin with. Virtual signals are just that, signals. Words. You don't build nations on words.

In the end, when you go to a bad restaurant and complain about the poor food. You don't get a better steak. You just get extra spit.
