Quote from HQ_Admin on August 19, 2020, 1:51 PMJust a quick reminder--please limit any information that the enemy might use in "doxxing". We all want to believe that people are essentially good and it shouldn't be problematic to put our info out there, but we also all know better. These are dark days where respect doesn't exist, and the bounds of law and order are tested regularly. Don't make it easy for the enemies of Liberty to create problems for you. No specific locations (and CERTAINLY no actual addresses), no "real" names, no phone numbers, etc.
Be smart.
Other than that, welcome! And thanks for participating!

Quote from VictorM on August 19, 2020, 7:24 PMOlder male, 77, married, grandpa of two girls, but still in pretty good shape. Currently live in Albuquerque, but moving to Greenville, SC soon. Fairly handy as a mechanic, handy man, computer user, and a past CPA. Own some guns, but haven’t really trained as much as I would like.
Attracted to the site because, like a lot of people, I wonder “what can I do about our country disappearing?” I want to do more than just ring my hands and worry, but like many others, I’m already pretty busy, and most importantly, didn’t have a practical plan.
That’s what attracted me to this site. Saw a reference on ZeroHedge that led me to it. I really like the philosophy and grand plan laid out here by the HQ Admin. Hoping the small beginning becomes a snowball, then an avalanche.

Quote from O sleeper on August 19, 2020, 11:30 PMMale, under 20, but very patriotic and want to do everything I can to help save America and get it back on the right track. I live in the Midwest close to the Ozarks. I also want to help the church in America wake up. It's in very bad shape too. I believe it has contributed in a big way to Americas downfall.

Yep 80 years of "church people" sending their kids to pagan schools. I can see a problem there.
We need more church ppl on board.

Quote from Marc Sayer on August 21, 2020, 12:39 AMI'm 64 and have been married for 41 years. Live in Apache Co AZ, out in the boonies. Just moved here last year, from the Cascades in OR. I've done a lot of things in my life. I was an actor when I was young. I came from a show biz family but never really fit in. I've raced cars (went through the Bondurant school and actually helped build and deliver the replica of his original 240Z school car). I don't have a military or police background like a lot of folks seem to. I was a magazine writer and photographer for 15 years, and worked for various car magazines. I specialized in tech subjects and had my own tech columns in 2 different magazines. I was also Senior Editor for one magazine and eventually took over that publication. I concurrently owned my own speed shop/restoration shop and also designed and manufactured custom high performance parts. In my old age I've found out I am a fair to middling horseman. I've been training dogs since I was 10, and have worked off an on as a trainer. I've been running a rescue since 2001 for special needs (mostly deaf, blind or both) Great Danes. I've worked in special ed as a teacher's aide for 8 years with both emotionally handicapped kids and mentally retarded kids. I've worked as a sewing machine repairman. I've worked for several car repair shops as a general mechanic and as an engine specialist, with a focus on high performance engines. I've built computers for myself and friends for over 30 years and got my first paying job building computers and a network for a Chiropractor's office in 1988. I have written some basic coding including code to automate installation and launching of a linux version of a Windows program I used and liked. The creator of the program was not all that linux savvy and had ported it to linux as a command line program with no installation feature. I am familiar with linux, Windows, and android. I built my first website in 1987 and have maintained and built websites ever since, though I am not up on the current stuff. I started back when we wrote the code in notepad, and while I have used web developer programs, I generally limit my sites to html and do not use other proprietary features like CSS, java, etc. I am moderately skilled in computer security. And for the last 5 years I have been building and selling computers on Craigslist, mostly for fun.

Quote from DasBlinkenlight on August 21, 2020, 2:03 PMI have been doing concert lighting for tours and TV (aka a roadie) since the late 1900's (hence, Das Blinkenlight)
I have worked in all 50 states, and about 40 countries. Robots, networks, industrial power, rigging, working at heights, loading semi trucks, etc...are all part of that. (I even had a bomb technician in Tel Aviv tell me he considered my job way to dangerous.)Also Extra class ham, used to be a broadcast engineer (AM and FM radio stations)
Wrote the signals handbook for small teams: http://citizenmilitem.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/SignalsVOL_1.pdf (Volume 2 is a work in progress)
Maybe next year I will come to a city near you!
(also a sci-fi nerd)
