Interesting concept, I like to see how it works.

7,000 families on 3,000 acres in Idaho. I’m not sure that’s a good plan. I have other concerns about their idea, but the math seems flawed too.

I went to their website. They have a calculator to determine your cost. its mostly based on how much space you want and land. They are also including land outside the fortress.

Its a lifetime lease with a 30 yr term. I’d be interested to see who the property reverts to upon death.

I’m in. As long as there are a few hot chicks available. This ain’t one of them places where all the women wear long brown dresses is it?

Too easily targeted.

My guess, the community will be infiltrated by DHS in an effort to keep an eye on them.

Wonder if they’ll have their own court, police and so forth?

How much liberty can you exercise behind fortress walls?

"neighbors keep their noses out of other neighbors' business, that neighbors live and let live."

The trouble begins at the interface between what one neighbor thinks of as his business and what another neighbor thinks of as his business, and at the interface between the lives of neighbors.

Interesting. Has a scam smell to it though...

Glenn Beck announced something similar “city”, I think called Independence.

i think if we had the demographics of the late 1700s it could work. i don’t think so now.

I am not hiding. I will not be corralled. I will not register. I will stand right here and defend what's mine as guaranteed by the Constitution and Bill of Rights.

I think the barak regime would love for us to cower in compounds like Waco, or maybe like Jews in train cars.

No mention of God, worship, or religious freedom other than inference? People have to be physically fit, does that mean that those who get sick after moving in get expelled?

It will be interesting to watch what transpires.

The Citadel Patriot Agreement reads like a list of what is required by a standing army or militia.

Four: Every able-bodied Patriot of age within the Citadel will maintain one AR15 variant in 5.56mm NATO, at least 5 magazines and 1,000 rounds of ammunition.

That is quite an expensive proposition for every member of the family.

I think I'll pass. I'd rather rely on my own preps and abilities. But for some, it might be a good option.

I like to see how it works.

Here's one view of how it might work:

I would not want to be such a high-profile target.
