I can understand the FR oldtimers and them being the gatekeepers, cautious and brassy. But usually once they accept someone there is no problem. They used to have problems with trolls here, now only the occasional target of fun. I think RaginApache means well and I see no sign that he’s not on our side checking out his site. He is trying to get a movement up and running it looks like.

Just look at that partial photo of 1,000,000 Conservatives all getting along in one big 2nd Amendment Lovin’
Conservative Love Fest and imagine if we amplify that kind of activism. We have not done it in 11 years, bout time to do it again.

I don’t want to discourage any of the folks on our side in activism, coming up with ideas and helping our cause. One thing for sure, there is some awesome assembled brainpower and potential for political activism via this site. I am learning stuff from fellow Conservatives all the time here, killer quotes, philosophy and the like.

Conservatives have traditionally not been as good or as interested in political activism though that’s changed over the last decade or so. Many of us have become energized and even radicalized - in the good sense of the word. I’m a proud radical conservative and need some form of core base energy to counter what the other side produces, or they’ll steamroll over us if we were ever to stay meek, milquetoast and mild. The Left does NOT own political activism anymore which isn’t news to anyone here of course which, is great!

Every time I see Conservatives exercise their rights, I feel pride. And, yes, I tolerate the right of the opposition to exercise there rights - except when they start tearing crap up, threatening and rioting like they do nine times out of ten. Then I’m for mowing ‘em down - starting with riot agent cannons and escalating it from there as needed.

RaginApache gets an A for effort and enthusiasm. However, one has to be careful not to give ammo to the other side, and his link to the MMM photo was used by the Dummies to poke fun at FR. He should drop the video to the November 1 rally since it was cancelled. Also, there is much more to having a rally than announcing it. RA needs to line up some logistics for a rally and THEN announce it. And I question the timing of calling for a rally before we even know the election results.

I've spoken my peace. I will see what transpires from here. Take care.
