It's not secret. Mike Vanderboegh of Sipsey Street Irregulars blog started the modern incarnation, but 3% itself is a reference to the fraction of the colonial American population that actually took part in the Revolutionary War.

These days, there is also a splinter group started by a man some say is a government informant but is certainly a man who has been in trouble with the Feds. His name is Sam Kerodin, and he blogs at III Percent Patriots. There has been bad blood between Kerodin and Vanderboegh for years, even though a lot of people read both blogs.

A somewhat related blog, where many people who call themselves III Percenters gather is Western Rifle Shooters Association. The proprietor there, "Concerned American", is a Kerodin partisan though he still links to Vanderboegh's stuff sometimes. (In fact, Vanderboegh's unfinished novel, "Absolved", is published there.) Many brilliant conservative, libertarian, and pro-gun rights commentators either lurk or post there, including many from Free Republic. Particularly coming to mind are Matt Bracken, former Navy Seal and author of the excellent Enemies Foreign and Domestic trilogy, and David Codrea, who with Vanderboegh and Sheryl Atkinson of CBS broke the "Fast and Furious" crimes of the Obama ATF.
