I don't know about being taken seriously. I had to keep from laughing. Where did he say he was, CA? Can they even get detachable mag guns in CA? Definitely smelled of a spoof. Too many goofs. Point Aim?

You know no self-respecting liberal would use such a racially charged term as scalp.
Although, history shows that it was the British that started it.

When things like this are getting spoofed, should we take note that things like this are also becoming mainstream, accepted?

This thread is not to bring proof in its pure form, but to push you to not stop getting ready for an event. Any event.

People in the preparedness vein have sort of taken a breather as a whole, and I believe that to be the biggest juke in the history of the game.

Trumps election did bring us some extra time, but the trigger(s) are now hair triggers and there seems to be many fools struggling to reach their grubby index fingers toward them.
 
Actually, my concern about the spoofing is that they are not taking Antifa seriously. Never underestimate your enemy. And I see the current conditions as the calm before the storm.
 
Some have never thought through the implications of cell phone tracking and the massive historical database being collected in UT.
Once you have a person of interest (for whatever reason), you would assume they would start tracking his phone and his conversations. Even if he is careful and never discloses any information in a conversation or text, they can still track his location to some degree, depending on if GPS is on or if they have to use crude cell tower location. Of course they can derive from this the persons activity, cleaners, grocery store, work, restaurant, etc. No big deal you say. Now, let's step back a little and say create a list of all cell phones that were in that restaurant on that day at that time. Now, go back in historical data and tell me what numbers have come together with the target number before in the last 10days. Now, go back 30days, 60days, a year. Are there numbers that consistently come together with the target number? Now lets start filtering. PTA, employees at businesses, neighbors, Hmm... there's a Susan that keeps popping up on a regular basis after work at the nearby Hilton. Isn't his wife's name Pam? Doesn't matter. Who are these other people and why are they coming together at odd locations and times? It seems to be a cluster. Let's run the same patterns on these people and see what we turn up. Maybe one of them let something slip in a conversation.

It amounts to the greatest "fishing expedition" of all time.

The Price of Delegitimization
Written by Jesse James


What’s in a name? that which we call a rose; By any other name would smell as sweet… – William Shakespeare

The internet has been rife with controversy and frantic keyboard banging, the most cogent and memorable being Zman’s post about the nature of the Neojacobins inside the beltway and on the coasts. Having been around more than my fair share of that class of people, I have a working knowledge of the very different Americas that exist within the same borders. The perception the media cultivates is one of competence and informed gravitas. Well dressed men posses secret knowledge and are 21st century Sophists, deciphering hidden meanings and teasing the future out of press releases, appointments, firings and now ice cream. The truth is, most are horrifically isolated. Much of America, including the liberty movement is the same way, but few have the bully pulpit of CNN, MSNBC and Fox News. I went to school with many of the Neojacobins; you graduated from the right private school and went to the right college and then post-grad. The place you lived, restaurants you ate at, where you shopped for clothes and even the grocery stores you went to all reflected this isolation. Whole Foods, Trader Joes and Fresh Market don’t expose you to the ‘others,’ nor are you going to ever come in contact with someone who has a Massey Ferguson or Case in their barn getting fitted for a Brooks Brothers or a Michael Andrew’s Bespoke. People living in such a world have more in common with their peers shopping on Saville Row or in Avenue des Champs Elysées that their countrymen from Galax, VA or New Braunfels, TX. Within this resplendent isolation, they have not a clue how the hinterlands think, act or what defines them culturally. Only distain exists for such far off places, as if outside the major cities there exists a sub-human class that’s only use is to deliver and produce good for ‘the people who count.’

chinaexecution.jpg
Up until the last decade or so, most people were content to bear the every increasing burden of taxation, regulation and censorship the Neojacobins had incrementally begun to impose on those outside their little worlds. The incompetence of Obama coupled with systemic problems beginning to manifest themselves in the national economy and social fabric of the country started to radiate outward from the cities and affect the more rural areas. The balance that had been struck thus far, namely ‘as long as I can feed my family and maintain a reasonable standard of living I’ll play along with your silly games’, was now turned on its head. The Neojacobins didn’t even know that traditional America was being crushed and stripped of their wealth by their policies, and they didn’t bother to ask. Nobody who matters lives there anyway. The Trump backlash was a slap in the face to most, utterly unexpected because they simply don’t even acknowledge that a world exists outside of their gated communities, the suburban soccer moms and Whole Foods customers have no clue that they just destroyed the entire coal industry or put people out of work as they hurry to Pilates. Given that ignorance, Trump was a political asteroid impact, the most unlikely and devastating thing many of them had ever seen as he crashed into their world. The anger from them is one of class, the upending of their perceived social status by someone so beneath them as to not even warrant an opinion. It is difficult to put this concept into words if you have not experienced those social circles, the level of outrage would be akin to a janitor walking into an Exxon Mobile board meeting and overruling the entire table of executives.

The anger is palpable within the Beltway and it’s coastal fiefdoms, which is understandable. The idea that someone who shakes parmesan from a can contravened the wishes of those who can taste the difference between serrano and iberico Jamón is simply unacceptable. Maxine Waters, Nacy Pelosi, Barbra Boxer and Al Green, are so far removed from traditional America as to be alien life forms. Outside of the 6 -7 major media/political centers in the US, the rest of the population simply do not factor into the equation until election time returns. Virtually no one in these locations are privy to the conversations going on in mills, churches, bars and barbecues all throughout the country and the level of hatred that has been engendered. I was speaking with a rather well-informed friend recently and his estimation of the undercurrent of rage was even higher than my own. The media and bureaucrats continue to play games of intrigue, woefully ignorant that the sole bulwark against a very ugly chapter in American history has been motive. The Trump presidency confirms that motive now exists. Rather than recognize the election for what it is, the Neojacobins have doubled down and attempted to browbeat the rest of the country. Still ignorant there exists a separate culture and nation outside the DC fiefdoms, they flail about looking for bogeymen, conjuring up Russians and people like Richard Spencer and ignoring the tens of millions who willingly voted for Trump.

The drum beat by Keith Olbermann and his ilk for the last six months has been an attempt to invalidate the election results. The view from the media centers and the beltway is that there is a groundswell of support from the Brooks Brother’s suits and Whole Foods people and that encompasses their view of America in toto. They will do what they will and the rubes in the hinterlands be damned. Most of you understand the frustration and anger of the Trump supporters, particularly the Millennials who voted for him. What gets overlooked in this paradigm is much the same thing as the Neojacobins fail to understand. Both sides feel as if their way of life, country and values are under attack. Both sides are correct. War is about the only way to describe this political and social environment as two competing ideologies that are utterly incompatible are being advanced.

The unspoken assumption within the DC fiefdoms is that rural America cannot be allowed to rule the country. We are too naive, too close-minded, too backward, too intolerant…we are retrograde savages with no place in their 21st century world. The truth may be a different matter, but the meme persists and has for decades. The election didn’t work because of a weak candidate, the economy and a charismatic dark horse Republican. The Hamilton electors gambit did not work, but the hobbling and bureaucratic coup by Obama appointees and now disloyal Republicans from Never-Trumper Johnny DeStefano. Turning Trump into a lame-duck president does not make the anger that elected him go away, it merely intensifies it. Conversely, if Trump succeeds with his agenda it also intensifies the anger of the Neojacobins. The zero-sum nature of this conflict must be understood and there seems increasing evidence that traditional America has finally grasped that point. What remains to be seen is when and who will cross the Rubicon first.

The motive for the forcible removal and…resolution…of the Neojacobins within the United States now exists. As does the converse. A very real hatred exists on both sides with one side buying arms at an astonishing rate and the other openly calling for an impeachment and the stripping of voting rights from their greatest enemy. This is not a facile emotion based on external features, but an utter abhorrence of who that person is at their very core. Existence has become an act of war to those inside the Beltway. Zman is correct in his characterization of the left and establishment right, more accurately described as communist revolutionaries at this point. The last vestige of legitimacy resides in the ballot box. I would like nothing better than the Neojacobins to take that away from the public through an impeachment, showing the true nature of their ideology. It is time we say what the situation has become. If you are a traditional American, a Christian, or don’t recognize the deity of government then you are excess humanity to the Neojacobins and have no right to life. The communists have never given quarter so why expect it now? I am confident many inside the Beltway and the large coastal cities understand the price of delegitimization and are willing to pay that price to usher in their ideology. What remains to be seen is whether traditional America is as well. Time to grow up and learn to hate.

Piper Harron, a temporary assistant professor of the University of Hawaii at Manoa—I'd never heard of it either—has some thoughts on how universities can improve society. This is from her essay posted at the American Mathematical Society website:

What can universities do? Stop hiring white cis (sic) men until the problem goes away. If you think this is a bad or un-serious idea, your sexism/racism/transphobia is showing.

If you are on a hiring committee, and you are looking at applicants and you see a stellar white male applicant, think long and hard about whether your department needs another white man. ... When you hire a non-marginalized person, you are not just supporting this one applicant whom you like, you are rewarding a person who has been rewarded his whole life. You are justifying the system that makes his application look so good. You are not innocent.

It's like a '30s Goebbels rant about not hiring Jews for the physics department. Our competitors in this world are laughing their butts off .

If you believe Piper Harron's rant is a one-off, you'd be wrong. Campus Reform reports:

"Teach for America and EdX are partnering to provide a training course for middle-school math teachers on how to incorporate social justice into their curricula... To remedy math's contribution to oppression, teachers are thus encouraged to think of ways that math can be used to advocate for marginalized populations."

And if it doesn't work, there's always Nigeria. In related news, this is the talent pool Mizz Hannon would have universities draw from:

"6 Baltimore schools, no students proficient in state tests... At Frederick Douglass, 185 students took the state math test last year and 89 percent fell into the lowest level. Just one student approached expectations."

But wait, there's more

As is obvious to all, mandatory "equal opportunity" quickly became mandatory "equal outcome", with quotas, set-asides and preferences to enforce it. Unearned advancement at the expense of everyone else was the stated purpose of affirmative action from the beginning. But not even this is enough.

Their final solution is being suggested openly at some colleges now, albeit lightly oiled with academic blather and the barest minimum of deniability. The College Fix reports, "a Texas A&M University professor suggested in class that “white people dying” is a time-tested way to eradicate racism from American society". Tommy Curry is his name, "black self-defense" is his game. Here's how he put it:

“It requires us to destroy the way that society is formulated now. I don’t think you’ll like how we can change it. White people dying or the people in power dying has generally worked.”

If “white people dying” sounds maybe-kinda ambiguous—actuarial tables, march of time, all that—be aware he looks to the movie Django Unchained for inspiration. Elsewhere he said, “look, in order to be equal, in order to be liberated, some white people may have to die.” He calls it "part of a scholarly analysis". Texas A&M agrees. Free speech, they say. Move along, nothing to see here. Let's try his words with one teensy chage: “... some black people may have to die.” Chances are this wouldn't sound quite as scholarly to Texas A&M.

He's also on record as saying he turns on the news just to see white people get beaten, and it's a civic duty to encourage the oppressed to kill white people. His supporters offer explanations and denials and accusations. Well of course they do.
 
POLITICAL VIOLENCE IS A GAME THE RIGHT CAN’T WIN

http://jacobitemag.com/2017/06/14/political-violence-is-a-game-the-right-cant-win/


rioter.jpg



If there’s one thing righties believe, it’s that they could beat lefties in a fight.

You see this attitude reflected over and over again, to the point that it’s probably something engrained in the right-wing psyche. Pajama Boy vs. tactical deathbeast? Pffft. No contest. Look, righties have the guns, righties have police and they have the military. If one day the balloon ever goes up, righties will just organize behind a leadership of their veterans, coordinate with the active service, give all the lefties free helicopter rides, and live happily ever after. Right?

That’s pretty much what the Confederacy thought about the Yankees, and it didn’t exactly work out well for them.

From the perspective of a mainstream righty who’s a right-to-keep-and-bear-arms guy, this dismissive attitude is remarkably familiar. It’s the same attitude of somebody who buys a gun “just in case” but never goes to the range, which is a great way to discover when somebody kicks your door in at three a.m. that you don’t know the difference between the magazine release and the safety. Organization requires time, communication, networking, and above all practice, and vanishingly few right-wingers are interested in doing the necessary work.

Some of this is due to disillusionment. The determination of ostensibly right-wing politicians to resist giving their voters what they want has, unsurprisingly, motivated a growing number of righties, most notably neoreactionaries, to consider going post-politics. In this view, the Right cannot achieve its goals through participation in the political system; what the Right really needs is a Moldbug reset, or a restoration: a one-fell-swoop by which the government is fired and rebuilt. The idea is to build right-wing structures in anticipation of reality’s inevitable selecting-away of inefficient (left-wing) forms when they can no longer propagate themselves. Entropy will set in and, perhaps, a defining moment will emerge.

Of course, that’s not necessarily going to be the case. Political violence isn’t fun for the whole family: it’s long, and it’s ugly, and everybody suffers. And nobody ever thinks this when they have a Great Cause, but maybe, just maybe, your Great Cause won’t win. And then what? “It couldn’t be worse” is the sort of thing Turkish coup plotters say right before their attempt fails and leaves their bete noire in undisputed charge of writing the purge lists. When it comes to political violence, everybody imagines themselves piloting the helicopters; nobody imagines themselves clinging desperately to the skids.

There’s a famous cartoon by Sidney Harris that shows a couple of researchers at a blackboard, on which is a series of complicated mathematical equations. In the middle of the blackboard are the words “then a miracle occurs.” The cartoon’s caption, dialogue from one of the researchers to the other: “I think you should be more explicit here in step two.”

“And then a miracle occurs” is a long-standing fringe-right temptation. You see it in all sorts of places: in Ayn Rand’s hugely influential Atlas Shrugged, once a lone scientist moves to Galt’s Gulch and doesn’t have to worry about the leeches, he literally cures cancer. In the much less influential wish-fulfillment novels by literal Nazi Harold Covington, his Mary Sue goes from poverty-stricken and railing into the ether to the inspiring force behind a mass white nationalist movement because, for no reason, white people suddenly start listening to his screeds and mailing him five-figure checks. Bluntly put: “and then a miracle occurs” is the equivalent of “I don’t have to change or put forth any effort; someday I will be great and people will like me for who I am.” As Righties know, this is something lazy and inadequate people say.
 
The organizational capacity required to build a new world is the same organizational capacity have Lefties built to pressure government. So who’s in a better position to shape the big moment when it comes? Hell, if tomorrow civilization goes completely Mad Max: who’s got existing local networks of people who they’re used to turning out and doing stuff with on a regular basis? Answer to both questions: not the Right.

Passivists say activism accomplishes nothing. What it actually accomplishes is practice. Practice for networking, practice for turnout, practice for speed, practice working as a team. Anybody who’s ever tried to get five people together for dinner knows it’s a pain, but look at the airport protests after the travel ban, and see how many people the hard Left can turn out on next to no notice. Say the balloon were to suddenly go up: forget having a detailed and specific plan; in that first five minutes, do you — not some veterans’ network you’re hoping will salvage things, not some imaginary Great Man; *specifically you* — even know who you’re going to call?

The Lefties do. And that’s why righties who say the Right has nothing to learn from the Left are wrong. That’s because righties don’t read lefty books. I read lefty books and organizational manuals, and I can tell you: they’re smart.

Accordingly, righties face two major challenges: building things, and understanding the strengths, weaknesses, and tactics of their Lefty opposition. Righties won’t do the same things as the Left, or do them in the same ways, but that doesn’t mean the Lefties don’t have lessons we can learn.

The first thing righties have to understand about Lefties is that lefties have a lot more practice building their own institutions, and assuming control of existing institutions, than their counterparts on the right do, and they share their practical experience with each other. Righties who like to build churches will build a church and worship in it. Lefties who like to build churches will build a church, write a book telling people how to build churches, go out and convince people church-building is the thing to do, run workshops on how to finance, build, and register churches, and then they’ll offer to arrange church guest speakers who’ll come preach the Lefty line.

Righties need to do a better job of teaching each other. And not just teaching the right-winger closest to them. The most organized groups on the Right are the pro-life and RKBA activists; everybody else on the Right should be learning from them.

The second thing to understand about Lefties is how they actually function. There’s a lot of independence involved. Righties like hierarchy, so often think of the Lefties as taking marching orders from George Soros or whoever in a very hierarchical fashion. Not so much. A lot of left-wing organization is very decentralized, and they negotiate with other lefty groups as to exactly how they’ll do things and time things to not hurt each others’ work, so the labor movement’s march is not derailed by black-bloc window-smashing (see, for example, DIRECT ACTION, L.A. Kauffman’s excellent history of the Left from the 60s on).

The Lefties call that approach “embracing a diversity of tactics,” which, taken to its logical extent, is a weasel-worded way of saying that the lefty mainstream is comfortable with radical leftist violence. People don’t like to talk about this much. But while it’s impossible to imagine, say, an abortion clinic bomber getting a cushy job at an elite university, that’s exactly what happened to a number of alumni of the 1970s leftist terror group known as the Weather Underground. As fugitives, they were financially and operationally supported by members of the National Lawyers’ Guild; afterward, they were so normalized that the 9/11 issue of The New York Timesinfamously ran a profile lauding Weatherman alumnus Bill Ayres. By contrast, right-wing terrorist Eric Rudolph’s fugitive days were spent hiding in the wilderness because no one would help him. He was caught literally dumpster-diving for food. Potential right-wing extremists face opportunity costs that their left-wing counterparts do not.

Righties frequently make allegations of paid protestors when Lefties get a bunch of people together. Again, that’s not how it works. Think of Lefty protests as being like a Grateful Dead concert. People absolutely got paid at a Grateful Dead concert: the band got paid, and the roadies got paid. But the Deadheads who followed the band around didn’t get paid. They weren’t roadies, they weren’t the band; they were there because they loved the music.

Lefties are excellent at protests, not because they pay seat-fillers, but because they’ve professionalized organizing them, as you’ll discover if you read any of their books. The protestors aren’t paid. The organizers are paid. The people who train the organizers and protestors are paid. Basically, the way the Lefty protest movement works is sort of like if the Koch brothers subsidized prepping and firearms classes.

Left-wingers have a combination of centralized and decentralized infrastructure, because they have different kinds of groups. Some groups use centralized organization: they’ll go out tabling, recruit people, trying to grow big. Other groups, particularly anarchists, favor a decentralized approach, where actions are performed by the collaborative actions of multiple small cells called affinity groups.

The affinity group structure began in Spain: anarchists there organized themselves into small groups of very close friends who knew each other very well, because such small groups were difficult to infiltrate. Even if they were infiltrated, exposing one group wouldn’t blow the whole organization.

The American Left picked up on affinity groups in the late 1960s. They started as a means for organizing protests and turned into a means of organizing movements. To coordinate, they send members back and forth to spokescouncils. The idea is to create a very collaborative discussion. This is partly due to the influence on the modern hard Left by Quaker organizers — if you remember those lengthy Occupy meetings that just went on and on and on, it’s because that’s how decision-making is done in Quaker meetings, and Quaker organizers taught the technique to Lefties in the ’70s anti-nuclear movement. And it spread, because lefties in different movements talk to each other and work together all the time.

By contrast, righty organizations have historically been slow to organize. When they do, right-wing activists tend to stay in their own lanes and not work together, share notes, or reach out to one another’s followers. Think about the mishmash of signs you typically see at a Lefty protest, and then try to remember the last time you saw, say, an RKBA sign at a pro-life rally. More unfortunately, when righties do become active, they tend to do something like start a blog. Or make a YouTube channel. Or write a magazine article. In short, they become street-corner evangelists. They tend not to do things in meatspace.

Lefties do the work in the real world. Guess who wins?

The recent Battles of Berkeley have shown that right-wing defense groups can acquit themselves admirably in street-fights, but hard experience has taught Lefties that an all-one-tactic mentality is a good way to give your opponents time to figure out how to counter you. If righties going to build things, they need to look at how the lefties are doing it, because they’ve been working on it for forty years. To paraphrase Trotsky, you may not be interested in politics, but politics are interested in you — and you can learn a lot from the people who’ve been working them to their advantage.

There are two ways by which the spirit of a culture may be shriveled. In the first - the Orwellian - culture becomes a prison. In the second - the Huxleyan - culture becomes a burlesque. No one needs to be reminded that our world is now marred by many prison-cultures…. it makes little difference if our wardens are inspired by right- or left-wing ideologies. The gates of the prison are equally impenetrable, surveillance equally rigorous, icon-worship pervasive…. Big Brother does not watch us, by his choice. We watch him, by ours…. When a population becomes distracted by trivia, when cultural life is redefined as a perpetual round of entertainments, when serious public conversation becomes a form of baby-talk, when, in short, a people become an audience, and their public business a vaudeville act, then a nation finds itself at risk; culture-death is a clear possibility.”— Professor Neil Postman

Wow, just wow. Never thought about it all exactly like this.

Money quote:

When you listen to the larger message of the left, it is one of finity. We have a finite amount of planetary resources and domestic wealth. This finity represents a global and national crisis that has to be tackled with rationing mechanisms. We are all on a lifeboat and some of us are gobbling up more than their fair share of rations. Unless the rationers step forward, seize everyone's rations and pass out limited rations, then we are all doomed.
I partly just want to get in on this thread, but I also have to reject some of Greenfield's premise here. Sorry if someone else has already made these points; I'll go back back to scrolling wisely toward the end, as I've been advised.

I'm a fan of Greenfield and his writing. His characterizations of the left are on the money. But, in my opinion, he misses the mark regarding capitalism, which as a society, we have almost none of. Little "C" capitalism, at its core, is simply an exchange of value for value. When some authority sticks their fingers in the economic pie of a free market, it ceases being free, and it is no longer capitalist. So, the exception I take with Greenfield is just in letting the socialists usurp the term for their benefit of perverting it.

Applied/managed "capitalism" is lipstick on the socialist pig. It's Karl Marx in Keyne's clothing. It's popular among the unwashed because they're "educated" in our public skrewls and universities, who got it from Gramschi and the Frankfurt school via Columbia (on these shores) and Columbia South (in Chapel Hill). It's popular in the media, because the J-schools are arguably (at this point, from where I sit) purely communist. Political Correctness is Cultural Marxism, which is just regular Marxism without the force. The force part is what they're trying to figure out.

I'll go back to scrolling & reading now...
 
North Korea is about to get a dose of freedom. If we do it, I hope we go in hard and stomp it into a mudhole.

The rumors that they have some sort of EMP capable satellite gives me pause, but their lack of capabilities in other arms make this seem unlikely.

Anyhoo, all is not well and we are not on pause. Push on
 
And William Lind has a much different solution, which surprised me some, but one I couldn't dismiss.
NK isn't a direct threat to the US and its "ruler" knows this. In a fight, they could easily be obliterated and he knows this too. The biggest weapon they have is putting us at odds with China. Normalizing relations would remove the threat and give him a much better position to rule from. It is hard to contemplate with the history of my entire lifetime (born 20 odd years after the Korean War) but an oddball approach might be best.
 
NK isn't a direct threat to the US
I disagree. I read something the other day which made sense about the NorK's strategy. It's to have that one splinter that they could inflict upon us, or at least the valid threat of doing so, in retaliation for an Iraq-esque invasion to oust the regime. Saddam was all talk and didn't have anything real to hit back with. The NorKs now do--whether in ICBM form or other form.

While they likely haven't perfected the technology to be a reliable threat on their behalf, there is still a growing chance that one of their firecrackers could actually work. Combine that with our less-than-perfect defense system (i.e. us being able to reliably 100% of the time shoot down an incoming missile), there's a small window of opportunity there. That, to me, is a threat. Compound all of this with the fact that they are *just* crazy enough to go through with it, and it's a credible threat. The other countries with nukes whom we don't necessarily approve of at least know to not point the nukes at us, or else...
 
Do any of these plans for NK take into account the, if not actual annihilation of Seoul, then the colossal damage and loss of life the city will suffer when/if someone attacks NK?

I agree.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile....

Saying you will attack.... Having the capability...That's a threat.

Unless NK attacks us first, I sure hope POTUS goes thru Congress to declare war... Otherwise I feel there will be no coming back as everyone will turn their back on him.

Facts matter. Opinions and predictions matter. When they point in the same direction they matter more. Crisis are coming closer together. Everything's an emergency, and every fix spawns more emergencies. We don't know, and maybe can't know, who's in charge of what. Equilibrium is everywhere giving way to instability, which is devolving into insanity. What's coming may defy belief even in hindsight, an inescapable, unstoppable collapse into medieval ruin.

Most of us won't survive such a catastrophe. In the cities the odds of surviving the first few weeks are not much more than zero. Within a few days walk of the cities the odds improve, but slightly and temporarily. Even far from the cities only some of the practiced and prepared will survive the short term, fewer yet the long term. For those not already well situated it's probably too late, the learning curve is steep and the consequences of failure are final.

What will remain intact after the first few weeks? The important decisions have already been made. Only that which can be protected with drastically diminished resources: parts of the east and west coasts mainly, distribution centers and port facilities, major railroads and highways, power plants, medical and communication centers, strategic military installations. Not all. Not even most. Only the irreducible core assets and indispensable personnel. All else is exploitable or expendable. This is how it begins. Stay away from crowds.

What Are You Prepared To Do?





From comments today:
So then we stop the rallies, stop the demonstrations. People don't see us anymore, we cease all operations.

And then we do what? What's next? I know what THEY will do next. All Confederate Statues will disappear and then the statues of the Founders will disappear. Then ANY statue of ANY white person. Then streets will be renamed, schools, etc.

THEY are going to DO that. And some of them will also keep attacking random whites on the street, "knockout game" style.

What are WE going to do?That's an easy question.
"What are you prepared to do?"

By all accounts, most people are neither inclined nor prepare end it
Bitter or not, swallow that medicine, and move forward.

Do you live in the Blue hives?
Then street theatre probably isn't on the menu, nor should be.

If you aren't, then you can take a shot. You might notice that when Antifa tries things outside their comfort zone, it doesn't go well for them.
So you're not going to lose ALL the fights, nor even most of them. Berzerkely, Boston, etc., are probably not going to go well for you though.

In case this wasn't obvious, Charlottesville had an unfriendly mayor, unfriendly cops, unfriendly state police, unfriendly governor, and was ground zero for tens of thousands of leftists at the university. And it's a lazy two-hour drive from D.C.

Let's, by all means, hold an outright Klan rally there, and see how many normies are willing to get beat up for their right to free speech, shall we?
And BTW, let's do not one single fucking thing to think this through pro-actively, even though we'll have two months to get our shit in one bag.

And, oh yeah, let's have the whole fustercluck organized by an (until 5 minutes ago) Occupy! organizer and Clinton/Obama supporter.

That will turn out well. And when it explodes in our faces, let's let Lucy tee up the football for another try.


And another.

And another.



And another.



As I noted elsewhere, I have diligently perused every dead-tree and electronic list of pre-apocalyptic "Things To Do To Prepare For ________" that I could find.

By a strange coincidence, on exactly NONE of them, did I find listed nor explained, the entry "Protect Confederate monuments".
If your list is different somehow, explain that one to me. Please show your work.

The Leftards' 10-month crybaby hissyfits weren't working for them - not once - and in fact was making them an object of scorn, mockery, and public derision, including from their own nominal supporters, until dumbasses showed up to play the Washington Generals to Antifa's Harlem Globetrotters in Charlottesville.

If you ever saw "The Devil's Brigade", perhaps you can understand the disgust Pvt. Ransom's sprint and faceplant engendered from Col. Frederick on the return from the forced ruck march.

It's also a great flick. Watch it. Again, if necessary.

Do what you can, not what you can't. And if you're going to f*** it up, for the sake of everything, try not to do your spectacular faceplant in front of God and everyone.

And that's directed at everyone to whom it applies, not merely you, Comment writer, although you asked.

You or whomever, read the four links I posted in this post.
(Just to make it easy: here, here, here, and here.)
Make a farking list.
Then make a no-shit analysis of what you can do, and from there tell me what you should do, to get to where you can accomplish what you want to do.
This isn't hard at all, if folks just go in order.

Then start looking at list of what to look at after you get beyond one person:
here
here
here
here
here
and here.

There are no short-cuts. Folks can continue to do this half-witted, half-cocked, and half-assed, and marvel at the results.
Or, they can do it by the numbers, and get marvelous results.
My suggestion only has a century or two or warfare ("a continuation of politics, by other means" -von Clausewitz) in support of the theorem.

And if all that is still "too hard", then by all means, go back to MYOB, and taking care of yourself, and solving your own little problems. Which isn't a bad idea for life in general.

But qwitcherbitchin' when things you want don't happen, like they won't.

Statement by President Trump on North Korea
"The world has received North Korea’s latest message loud and clear: this regime has signaled its contempt for its neighbors, for all members of the United Nations, and for minimum standards of acceptable international behavior. Threatening and destabilizing actions only increase the North Korean regime’s isolation in the region and among all nations of the world. All options are on the table." - President Donald J.
