I have just came up with an idea that i feel might help to stop our goverment from intruding deep into our lives when the shtf. We must start now in order to get the message out to the sheeple before its to late. First of all someone needs to write up a one page article that explains all these new emergency measures that Klinton has signed into law over the last few years. ie Anti-hoarding and such. This letter must also explain the facts to the sheeple concerning what is happening now that mirrors Adolph Hitlers tactics before he tryed to rule the world as Klinton is trying to also do. This must be written in understandable text that all can understand. Then every one on this bullitin board will take this well writin document and send it out to 100 people asking those 100 people to send it out to 100 others. We have to scare the s#*t out of them to want them to help by spreading the word across Amerika. If we talk about anything else on these boards until this has been addressed we are wasting our time on unproductive individual survival when we need to save the country. from total collapse into Absolute Elitist Socialism. So whos going to step up to the plate first by writing a very well written informative one page document. This document, if it works, will be read in the future history books, identifing the author as a great patriot of our time. All of we people, will set into motion the unfleecing of americans by our goverment once and for all by mailing these out to the sheeple. Its not to late, lets come together in unity and save America. The least you can do now is get this message on every bullitin board that you know of and refer all repliers to this bullitin board with there answers or suggestions. Patriot boards are a good start. Come on people and that quit complaining, its time to take action. The world doesen't revolve around our own petty grievances, lets save America and make it a true Republic again. If we dont do something now, we will eventually move from our socialist democracy to true socialism then to communism, right to the tune of the Marxist Doctine. C.S Lewis wrote " Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppresive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber barron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some time be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." Hey, by the way to the goverment trolls, I give my E-mail address because I do not fear you any longer. My names probably on one of your lists already. Im out of the closet. I hope its not to late. LETS SAVE AMERICA WITH GOD WE CAN!! GODS WILL BE DONE ON EARTH FOREVER AND EVER.

I could write the document, would if I had the information and could find a spare hour (do-able).

But I don't want to be seen as the greatest paranoid lunatic of all time.

If I recieved such a document, I'd probably assume that somebody had been watching a little too much X-files. I'd read it, nod, go "uh-huh.. Elitist Socialism", nod some more, crumple it up and throw it at the bin.

Unless we can get hard, definitive information? I would gladly sign my name to *hard, definitive* points.

The reality is that panic will set in 1999 when the market collapses, or the bank runs start, or some y2k glitches affect a lot of people at once. And the people will scream for the government to save them, and will not complain when the government's response is to establish martial law to control the distribution of food and water, banking privileges, traveling privileges, etc. For more on this, check out y2kchaos.com

David: We see things about the same.

flierdude: Consider the following:

We will not be free until people fear this 'new slavery' more than they fear the responsibility that comes with true freedom. People that are anesthesized or asleep will not revolt until they wake up. The alarm bell is Y2K. We will see.

I disagree with the strategy that "We have to scare the s#*t out of them." Generating more FEAR is not a solution to long-term cooperation and survival of the many, just to survival of the few.

A more positive strategy is to encourage everyone, young and old, to take back the responsibility for preparing our country and ourselves, collectively. If we do that, we will then have a very large empowered group of people ready to take back other responsibilities, by just DOING it, rather than fighting about it.

Diane;

We have our atitudinal differences, thee and I. we surely do not share the same world view, at this time. I once held a world view very similar to the one that thee holds now. It is not so much of a stretch for me to return to that world view. Dost thee think that, perhaps, we might, ah, meld, as it were; the thoughts of both thyself and flierdude, and come up with a 1 page document that, instead of scaring the populace out of their bodily functions, "scares" them into community? Something which starts a grass-roots effort to take back our responsibility (oops bad word alert, there will be more!), exercise our rights to protect our communities, accept the consequences (I warned you there'd be more) of what we do or don't do and get on with it?

LORD, it's been 20 years since I thought in Plain Speech!!! I just re-read this thing, and I'm sorry if it seemed a bit stilted.

Well, now I know where the Plain Speech came from! Haven't signed anything like that since 1971!!! OUCH!

Flierdude: you sound a bit like billyboy without the caps. Proof of any idea is what is important. Anything else is just an opinion, and you know that old saying about opinions and assholes...Of course, a really good story is also always appreciated. And then again, on second thought, just because you're paranoid doesn't mean the fbi aint out ta getcha...
