Looks like this could be an excellent exercise for the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center.

While I can't recall off the top of my head how big FLETC ( flet-cee or flea-tech, depending on who you talk to ) is, it occupies the old Glynco NAS, and is very big.

Then you have to take into account how many "talented amateurs" there are in this area- I wasn't kidding when I estimated that 80-90% of the civilians are armed, and they range from ex-military and police to marsh-hen hunters.

Then there are people like my old friend Jim Wilson, who is a Title II Manufacturer- machine guns, suppressors, sniper rifles- you name it...

This is not an anarchist-friendly area.

Did I mention the 'gators, cottonmouths, coral snakes, and 200lb. loggerhead turtles who live in the marshes surrounding the islands and mainland?

I suspect we will see more misinformation, stereotypes, and bad replays of "Deliverance" regarding the Golden Isles than we have seen in quite a long time. Reporters and writers and journalists carry as many biases as any group of people I have ever seen, and they will all be on display as this thing plays out...

I'll make you all a deal- if anything here comes to my attention, I'll report here on Free Republic.

And I won't make any pretext of being "objective"-- but I'll tell you what I learn, as honestly as I can.

I know.

By the way, the Brunswick airplane is basically a old Naval Airport, it will be able to handle most of the major jumbo-jets. The rest, the smaller jets can land on the airport on St. Simon's Island.

This is not an anarchist-friendly area.

It depends on the type of anarchist, if you're talking about those anti-capitalist anarchist, no they will not be welcome.

If you are talking about anti-government anarchists, I am sure there are already a 'few' in Brunswick.
