PA Militia?

What's that, a negative photo image of the youth on the poster?

And shouldn't that be Obama Yute?

Meh.

Me, I'm going to stick with my group... the International Silver String Submarine Band.

Yeah, that's some wisdom from the 1960's, that the FBI had an unlimited supply of infiltrators, and without the infiltrators, most "cadres" wouldn't have done anything except talk. It was the government agents who tried to light the fuse, called the pacifists "pussies" and "traitors", ridiculed anyone who wasn't eager to shed blood in the name of "liberty" and "freedom". The most hard-core "freedom lovers" who made no compromise with the "fascists" in Washington were always the guys who provided their FBI handlers with detailed notes of every meeting.

I expect that we still have those sorts among us. They aren't hard to spot, although the genuinely crazy mofos look pretty much the same as them.

If I were organizing a group, I wouldn't call it a "militia", I wouldn't post out-of-context quotes from the Founders, I wouldn't have uniforms or camo. No blue-helmeted paper range targets. Just a group of Americans in jeans and T-shirts and hiking boots, with rifles and pistols and basic survival gear, practicing marksmanship and maybe some crowd control. You can train to deal with civil unrest, you just can't plan "unlawful" acts. So everybody buys a baton and a ballistic shield and a PASGT helmet with riot-control visor, and the group practices shoulder-to-shoulder crowd suppression instead of marching like toy soldiers. You learn all about bombs so you can defuse one in a pinch. You learn about sniper tactics, in case some a-hole sniper sets up during the next blackout and you want some insight in where they're likely to be positioned. And if riots break out, the civil authorities have you to assist them. What could be more patriotic than that?

You can train to work as a team in lots of ways.

Yes... But if you try yourself to learn these tasks... you are a.... DARE I SAY IT? :O!!!!!!

LONE WOLF!!!!!!!

I realize that's how the law is written. I just don't really trust the government to not trump up the idea that you're doing something you shouldn't in your private militia.

Was it you that said normally the government plant in such things is the guy with access to the explosives, time tables and such?

Especially if your militia has a public board. It's all but impossible to have a public board, like a gun board, and manage to censor out 100% of all anti-government sentiment.

If you're a board and nothing else, then you have a 1A screen. But if you're a gun board/website AND a militia group which trains, it seems vulnerable.

Then again, IANAL, etc...

IOW: you want to have a militia and training group ...OR... a public website/board presence, but maybe not both. If you want to have a training group with militia overtones, best to stay low-profile.

God help Zombies or Cuban Paratroopers if they infect/land in the state of Pennsylvania!

I'm pretty sure he's already got the group in mind that he intends for that force. The wheels area already in motion for creating it.

That doesn't mean we the people can't help ole' barry by volunteering to serve in a civilian force on our dime.

Current siege strategy is to jam all communications. So if you were involved in something like Waco, you wouldn't be able to communicate with anyone but the officers surrounding you.

I saw the Ridley was over at Qik but I wasn't sure if that was the new site or what was going on.

Hard wired communications like WWII voice powered phones cannot be jammed.

Name it Zombie Response Team or something along those lines.

[JAS104]

Zombie Response Team.... ZRT. Lovin it. lol

Red Dawn and 28 Days/Weeks later ring a bell!

Red Dawn and 28 Days/Weeks later ring a bell!

Good lord YOU'RE RIGHT.
Getcha guns boys.

[Ricochet]

Hmmm. I cannot say I'm entirely sure I would be ok with accepting all races/religions.

If they are for the protection of what the founders of this nation wanted, WTF difference would it make?

America isnt just for white Christians you know.
