I'm not sure that it is fear that keeps us in the shadows. Personally, I want to maintain a low profile. No sense in pulling on the tigers tail.

why keep a low profile? unless there is something to hide.

I am out there my church knows I am militia my community my government on all levels knows i am militia I am not ashamed to show people who I am.

This is how we get more people hard to recruit when we hide in the shadows. Sure it has put me on the radar more then some but you know what I have been able to build somewhat of a working relationship cause of it.

Do what you feel need to but my suggestion is rethink your approuch brother

Here is an outline of an idea I have been thinking about for a type unit that is not politically oriented but community focused. Militia is a hard sell these days.

Is it a militia? Don't think so.What do you all think?  have been Researching into Operations Other Than War and thinking about our role in it. 

 The Community Readiness Group (CRG) concept  is based on CERT, police reserves, and similar to a volunteer fire department. A  volunteer community Emergency Services organization, , whose mission is to assist neighborhood Emergency Services during times of extreme emergency or natural disasters.

While I believe in the political objective of the militia movement, we suffer from a public image problem. Perhaps a slightly different structure and mission focus could open up our fellow citizens to the ideas of self reliance and political freedom.

 

It could be composed of a Headquarters Element and 4 operational sections- Technical section, Humanitarian Aid section, Medical section, and Security/ Rescue resource.

Headquarters would be tasked with the Management, Deployment, Staging, Training, Public Affairs and Overall operations

Technical sections mission is to assist in the establishment, operation, maintenance and security of an communication and computer network during an emergency. Also helps provide technical expertise on electrical power, water resources, construction, demolition and other areas of technical expertise.

Humanitarian Aid sections mission is to assist in the distribution, preparation, and collection of Food, Shelter and Clothing in times of Crisis. Also helps provide Child and Animal care and locating missing relatives.

Medical sections mission is to assist in providing Emergency and Patient care in a time of Crisis. Also to help provide Field sanitation and Water treatment

Security and Rescue Sections mission is to assist in Perimeter & Area Security, Welfare Calls, Reconnaissance, Search Rescue and Extraction, Processing Evacuee's.

Basic Training should consist of- Emergency First Aid ( START) Disaster Preparedness, Basic Search and Rescue Techniques, Radio Communications Fundamentals, CERT training, Basic Rifle/ Pistol Marksmanship, Firefighting Fundamentals, and much much more.

Eagleclan,, I totaly agree with you on the education things but we have no choice in confronting the agencies with common sense!! I don't mean by being aggressive either,, here again COMMON SENSE,, even they understand this!! I should have clarified this!! J4p's situation and other things that have popped up has made it to where i simply have no choice about the matter of communicating with them! I am finding out we have more respect in these agencies (FBI) than we thought!! Do i trust them??? NOPE,,, but that trust is something that is built and it works both ways!! We really should be reaching out instead of withdrawing from them,, just be very careful how you deal with them!! I would rather have the FBI or any other federal agency for an ally than my enemy,, they are our brothers and sister Americans, this is for their freedom as well!! Im with ya brother,, ya hit the nail right on the head!! ; ) I will tell everyone this,,, if we do this right,,,,,, we will even win most of them over and we will have not compromised not one thing!! MARK MY WORDS ON THIS!! ; )

Agreed  we need law enforcement on our side so build a relationship with them let them know who you are and what your about ask them what's right and wrong from their perspective be respectful another words the golden rule.

dont go on youtube with a mask and rant thats only gonna draw negative attention. some of them will agree with you others may not but generally they respect the rule of law and if not they have to be held accountable to the law just as we do.

I have heard stories from law enforcement of cops feds etc being fired for violating others rights or abuse of power etc.

If we reach out to our brothers and sister just imagine the power that could bear as opposed to living in fear and ending up in prison cause we over step the bounds

MinuteMan I like your thinking.

Thank you Shawn,, im in this to do it right and be a positive force in our communities!! Evan the FBI recognizes that the militia brought back in its original role to serve and protect can be a very positive thing for America!! There are some real surprising events unfolding right now as we speak,, we are winning this battle of hearts and minds if we just do this right!! Those im in touch with do not want us to compromise our beliefs,, they(our beliefs) are as American as can be!! They actually admire this about us,, they just want this to be done in a organised, professional manner so safety of the public is kept!! If you ask me we have the green light on our efforts here so lets keep it straight and clean!! Ive waited 20 long hard years for this and if we are smart we will do what it takes to get this done!! The greatest thing about all this is the FBI does not expect us to give up nothing in the process!! No compromises at all! The agents i have spoken with want to work with us and not against us as long as we keep this right!! TIME TO SHINE PATRIOTS!! SO STEP UP AND DONT FEAR,, BE PROUD OF WHO WE ARE,,OUR TIME HAS FINALLY COME!!

Just guesstimates mind you!

 

I would concur with your number of Americans, but as to the 3% I would think that number would vary dependent upon a multitude of factors such as the economy, condition of things like the grid, cost of gas, oppression, and political situation and food shortages; just to name a few. That percentage above could be as low as one and as high as ten. And if everything is met to its extreme maybe 25%.

What do you think?

Outstanding Sir! I feel that as the need arises the people will rise to the occasion as they have on numerous occasions.

There will be people who want to help and need to be shown what to do.  What will be needed is Officers and NCO's that can train and lead troops when that occasion comes. A few men can train many soldiers.

I also agree that a tax revolt and other types of "passive" resistance could turn the tables without violence. Keep up the fire!

I'd be careful with the morgage, I've already lost my house.

But if you stop paying the mortgages then you got the monies for the investing.
