Actually, on the face of it; it's not an entirely bad idea. I've often wondered what it would be like if groups of conservatives, not extremists, just strong conservatives, some Libertarians, could go into an area and 'settle' into it! It doesn't even matter what party, necessarily, (as long as it isn't Communist, or Nazi, etc..).

If liberals can do it, why then not us? It could be a subtle thing, just enough to not scare the liberals and put them on the defensive too much. It might not be too practical to do it on a sudden large scale, like this guy is suggesting.

But maybe a bit at a time, just doing what the extreme liberals are doing in some places. It makes me sick to see what some of these extreme left-wingers are doing in the states that were the 'cradles of the American Rev., such as Virgina, New York, Massachusettes, Vermont, New Jersey, etc..! Not to mention what they are doing to some states in the "Old West", or California!

The FSP motto is Liberty in our lifetime. If the initial efforts in the first state are successful, there are hopes the idea will spread to other states, particularly neighboring ones.

Of course, it's sometimes said that The difficult tasks can be accomplished immediately; the impossible takes a little longer....
