Basspig Posts: 436 Registered: 2012-11-26 FEMA Region 1	Late to the party here, and I actually discovered this specific Ticker because someone posted it on Facebook. I've been a lurker here for a couple of years before I decided that it would be better to become a part of this community than not. I have found Karl's writings to be spot on. Sometimes, he sounds like an Objectivist, despite the fact that in his latest blog, he denies such. To the few Marxists trolls here that think he owes you this information, you just don't get it, do you? The product of a man's mind belongs to no one but himself. I learned this from Ayn Rand in 1962. And it has shaped my attitude toward everything from taxation to military draft ever since. Sociopath Socialists and Marxists hate men of the mind, because they feel threatened by men of Unborrowed Vision. When you put a zero next to an achiever, the reaction of the zero, the non-producer, is to punish the producer by stealing from him. Shame on all moochers! I will miss Karl and this forum, should he decide to pull up stakes and vanish. This is an area where I can feel free to discuss ideas that resonate with me, without a bunch of others pointing sticks at me and acting like I belong in an asylum. Indeed, there are many here who feel more strongly about certain, uh, self-defense issues than even I do. What a great community! We all want a peaceful resolution to the problem. Indeed, we face an event which is strangely remeniscent of the good vs evil scenario in Steven King's "The Stand." The whole nation is heading to a standoff between producers and destroyers, aided by their minions, the moochers. The odds are slim. The casualties will be devastating. But it is a battle we have no choice but to fight. Battles will be fought on many levels. The ones that don't 'count' are the individual battles--the raids on individual homes, in which the home dweller is vastly outnumbered and outgunned. Their will be larger battles as groups form. The truckers strike to DC next week is, what I hope to be, one of the more effective means of sending a message to the Destroyers. And I hope they will do it again and again until the monsters realize that they cannot have their way with us. Battles that turn violent are the ones in which the victim realizes he has no options. Joe Stack III was one such case. He faced a long prison term or death. He chose death, and sent a message. Faced with such an untenable set of options, I think more than a few men would choose his way out. I have been starving the beast unwittingly since 1989, when I left full time employment. I have run small business after small business, first by the book, legal and above-board, but gradually, after discovering that the 'reward' for doing things by the book is being taxed out of business, moved underground to avoid the property taxes on business equipment. For decades, I have maintained the realization that earning more than a few grand a year means working mostly for Uncle Sam. So I was always afraid to make any changes that would put me in a position of having to increase my business revenue into the larger numbers. I thought I was okay until I got behind on my property taxes. Then I began to get really angry at the fraud perpetrated on 'home owners'. That's when I became active again at writing LTEs to my local paper. The vitriole and hatred I got back from school teachers was shocking. It was at that point that I knew that trying to change things by the "accepted" channels was pointless and began to stock up on ammunition. That was 1998. There are still a lot of people who have no clue and who still work their jobs and believe in paying taxes. But we're making strides. I've been listening to HAM radio for half a century, and never before in those years have I heard politics discussed until this year. I listen to the Liberty Net on saturday nights and Survival Net on Sunday nights, and also through their web streams' archives during the weekdays. But other, ordinary HAMs are starting to talk about current events and politics. Many are concerned greatly about the nature of these events and more than a few have a sense of what's wrong. Plus we're starting to see those "impeach Obama" signs along bridges and roads, even up here in the Communist state of CT. So my message to Karl is, "don't run this site for us--run it for your own benefit--because as your ideas help to save the country, it will be a better place for you and your daughter to live in in the future." That we benefit is a bi-product of your efforts, for which most of us are appreciative. But the real reason to keep at it is for YOU. America is the last bastion of freedom. Once we lost America, there is no place left to go on this planet. 2013-10-01 02:28:35
