All of these things are good to be doing at anytime however I disagree with the overall strategy here as history has shown it does not work. If we are going to remain free we are not going to do it by hiding from those that want to take our freedoms. No matter how many loopholes you find and shadows you hide in, they with the force of government will find you and they will win. Hiding is simply not possible and is a losing strategy. These tyrants live here just like us, they know who you are so not matter how low you think you are laying they will find you.

We are going to have to QUIT hiding and take these tyrants head on and defeat them. That is how we win.

In many states parents would be grateful right now if you could step in and educate their children in general! Schools dysfunctional.

Red state AGs should file suit on every single bill that Biden signs and refuse to implement them as detrimental to their state.

[Big Red Badger]

Get right with God,
Should be First.

[Persevero]

Yep. Fight fight fight. Strategically. But fight.

Study antifa’s organization or rather lack of and do the same to create a network. They are supported by some powerful people.

A lot of parents are learning that you can't even count on the government to educate your children. After years of condemning home schooling all of a sudden its fine and the parents are left to figure it out.

Helping supply educational materials is a great idea. Even just links to unbiased information on history, civics, and other topics can help other parents teach their children.

https://www.westhawaiitoday.com/2020/02/02/features/plant-of-the-month-pidgeon-pea-amultipurpose-tree-for-a-small-garden/ I'll check around - would love to have one or two in my yard. How long until they start producing? Any problem with birds eating your crop?

I put in grapes years ago and noticed new birds in the yard. I would check my new grapes every day to see if they were ready - then decided the next day I would pick them. Walked out and the birds were gone - along with every grape on the vine. Turns out they were waiting for the grapes to ripen too.

there is no fall back position, there is no rally point, there is no LZ... we're on our own. P144:1

FreeRepublic is social media.

I agree it’s prudent and well to be prepared for things. But I am going to politely disagree. Doom and gloom never draws a crowd or support. I agree get off social media. This is the only thing that needs to be done.

But we have lost the definition of happy warrior. Things are bad. But they are no worse than any other turbulent time in our history. It seems history repeats itself for America in 30 year increments.
The 20’s 50’s snd 80’s were periods of great Americana. Pax Americana if you will. Trump recaptured that in the 10’s albeit it late 10’s here it is.

These periods are universally followed by turbulence. 30’s 60’s 90’s snd early part is 00’s we’re socially and politically in upheaval.

The happy warrior points to the foundations of what makes us great. Teaches. Celebrates and works in the spirit of American optimism. This is what breaks the turbulence. And we will prevail again

I am saddened at all the cheap shots at the vaccine. The end of pandemic is upon us. And why? We had a Manhattan project like we saw with men like Oppenheimer, Einstein snd Feynman in the late 30’s.

To quote one of my favorite movies. We used to revere men of knowledge and we weren’t so afraid. America has brought forth unbelievable developments in economics, art, science and tech. This is our birthright. This is our song. I for one revel in it and choose to be — a happy warrior who is not afraid. I ask everyone who reads this to join me. This is a spirit that can it be dominated and our leaders are people like Reagan, trump, Scalia, and Cruz.

It’s our birthright. I do not intend to let it go in fear.

No one is coming. F’k em, it is up to us.

My motto for a long time. Leads to you getting taken advantage at times, but means you plan to get out and survive while others lie down and die.

[redgolum]

Well said!

I am a happy little pessimist. People, are by in large, corrupt, evil, and stupid. That makes every surprise a positive one, and every bad thing something you have gamed in your head.

REJOICE! Do you want to live for ever in this veil of tears? Pick up your spear! Something is going to kill you, pick something fun!

“FreeRepublic is social media.”

There are ways to legislate exceptions.

By gross income, by subscribers, etc.

I’m on several technical boards and they have a simple policy on political discission: no, or you’re out.

[Terry L Smith]

With all the scandals in the christian churches, all the demonstrated thievery of the teleevangelists who call themselves god’s front men, all the child buggery in the catholic church,
what’s the point?
Does that make me a “better American?”
If that is implied, whoever thinks that, just pooped on my exercise of my 1st Amendment right.

Avoid costly middlemen. Deal directly with God.

[Persevero]

Some patriotic history and good economic books would probably be gratefully received! Take them shooting and hunting. Coach some
Sports.
