A post Obama-win surviver's guide

[Scarpetta]

If the One is fraudulently thrust into the White House, and mass civil unrest ensues, I think we need a plan if we are to survive.

What should we be prepared for?

What should we be willing to do to ensure our survival?

Do we need a call tree to aid each other? Establish safe houses?

This stuff might read like a fanstasy novel, but it's a real possibility.

[Dallas59]

Nothing is out of the ordinary these days...

[comebacknewt]

Get back with me in three weeks.

I don't want to think about it yet.

[WestCoastGal]

Move to Alaska with Sarah.

Stock up on supplies and ammo.

Apply for food stamps :)

[sunmars]

Oh I dont know, march all the libs to the northeast and tell them not to come down south past the border of New Jersey.

[Perdogg]

This may not be over in three weeks, this could go into mid January.

[Scarpetta]

No matter what, buy guns and ammo.

[sunmars]

If any of that disputed crap occurs from the Dems, I hope McCain and Palin make damn sure they rip some heads off and take this as far to break the scums backs.

[Dallas59]

We may have to read up on certain things.....I never thought I’d be a possible insurgent....

[Perdogg]

Send money, guns, and lawyers. :-)

[Retired Greyhound]

I’m with you.

We may have to seek refuge in a freedom loving state.

Alaska would be a good bet. We can join Todd’s secession movement.

We would need to establish a military, because America will come after us for the oil money.

If you choose to remain in the lower 48, do as WestCoastGal says and stock up on arms. NOW!

Hopefully there will still be an America in four years, and Palin can defeat Obama.

[Perdogg]

WOLVERINES!!!

[Scarpetta]

Americans did invent gorilla warfare.

[SMCC1]

Talk Radio is seriously the only “media” I’ll pay attention to. Unless they try to pass the Fairness Doctrine. Hopefully though there will literally be mass protests if they start down that path.

[mkcc30]

“Move to Alaska with Sarah.”

We have considered that move regardless. I am just hoping if me and my family do that Sarah is not there but in D.C.

[Retired Greyhound]

Insurgent. LOL

We may have to either fight to take America back, or secede. If secession is the option, it has to be a state like Alaska or Texas...one with either abundant natural resources or an already strong economy. Plus, these states already have secession movements in place.

Trying to pry California away would take too long.

[Scarpetta]

I’m thinking the Dakotas. Beautiful country, better weather, and good grazing lands.

[WestCoastGal]

It does look like a beautiful place, although somewhat hard to get to. :)

Have you checked home prices and jobs?

[WestCoastGal]

I’m already in Texas.

I’m afraid there may be too many hispanics now to ever make that work........and then there’s Austin.

[Scarpetta]

Home prices and jobs?

There’ll be no private ownership of homes. You will be metted out a living quarters.

There’ll be no career of choice. You will be given a job based on your least ability.

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

Look for my old copy of Atlas Shrugged.

[CRBDeuce]

most important pre Nov 4 purchase....ammo loading press.

[Retired Greyhound]

Both Dakotas? Better North than South.

We don’t want to share a border with Obama’s U.S.

[fanfan]

Trying to pry California away would take too long.

Why would you bother? /jk

You are all welcome up here in Canada.

[CRBDeuce]

Friday Harbor might be far enough....not sure I’m ready for all that snow.

[Galatians513]

good grazing lands

Ideal for tanks...

[tacticalogic]

most important pre Nov 4 purchase....ammo loading press.

And gunsmithing gear.

[OpusatFR]

My swamp is pretty isolated, but I like it. If you can handle the snakes, the solitary brown bear, the occasional flooding it’s as far from the madding crowd as possible.

I intend to just lay low, do my own happy thing, and wait out the four years as Comrade Zero dismantles what we have left of individual rights and the ability to practice our beliefs.

Of course, the country may just have enough of dems in two years.

[Scarpetta]

I think we could have them both. We will also have the pleasure of weeding out liberals from our midst. No more PC in the land of JimRob

[Amos the Prophet]

There are some excellent resources detailing the French resistence during WWII.
www.amazon.co.uk/French-Resistance-Fighter-Frances-Warrior/dp/1846030765 - 202k -
and the film, “Joan of Paris”
www.amazon.com/review/product/6301696662 -
are both useful.
The development of a sophisticated Resistance movement based on infiltrating and undermining the development of a communist regime will be critical. O’s leadership will not be seasoned warriors. They will be intellectuals, sophists, naive idealists, and frustrated second rate activists.
Infiltration will be critical in the first 6 months, after that doors will be closed to new recruits.
It is most important to understand that an O presidency engages our nation's enemies in an onslaught of institutional destruction not seen since the civil war. In that vein, look for state legislatures and governors to openly discuss secession or other forms of divorce from the fed gov.
There will be much to do to save this nation from the Holocaust of a Marxist takeover.

[misterrob]

I will be looking to invest money in overseas markets.

[Dawn531]

I heard an interesting comment from Dennis Miller about the Fairness Doctrine. He said if they passed the Fairness Doctrine, he’s just say no thanks, and refuse to air his show because he wasn’t going to have a bunch of “goofballs” (his term) on his show...so he’d rather just give up his radio show.

[Gaffer]

Of all the possibles, I like this option the best. Tell all the liberals down South to get the hell out! Screw the border fence along the TEXAS SW US border! Build that damn thang further north......

[OpusatFR]

“Look for my old copy of Atlas Shrugged.”

Yes. Very true. I’m at that point.

[mcshot]

This is a serious life threatening matter to me and my family so count us in.

[Gaffer]

Now I could be racist and suggest Gorilla warfare be left to some other group, but I won’t. Suffice it to say, Guerilla Warfare might be called for.....

[Frank_Discussion]

“Lawyers”?

I’m sure you meant to type “targets”. Right?

[Perdogg]

Do you remember the Warren Zebon song?

[Frank_Discussion]

“Alaska would be a good bet. We can join Todd’s secession movement.”

Wouldn’t that be some prime irony?

[Gaffer]

Well, he could have said Scum Sucking Bottom Dwellers, but that would have been a huge insult to the Southern Catfish Farming industry.

[Centurion2000]

What should we be prepared for? Civil War

What should we be willing to do to ensure our survival?
You should ready to do almost anything and everything except utter capitulation to survive.

Do we need a call tree to aid each other? Establish safe houses?

It's a little late for that. Setting up anything like safe houses on a public internet forum is an invitation to sting operations, SWAT raids and disaster.

[Scarpetta]

sigh...

You’re life sounds idealic. I can cook, clean, plant, farm, bale, perform husbandry, muck the stalls, can, and just about anything else.

I’d be very useful on the FReeper Commune.

[Retired Greyhound]

We could finally send them back.

[mkcc30]

“Have you checked home prices and jobs?”

Just started about a week ago. The job of course is the main issue. My wife will soon have her paramedic license which will get her work anywhere. For me though it is a bit more tedious as I own and operate a landscape business. Not too many opportunities for landscaping in AK. HA!

[Frank_Discussion]

Nope.

And that madam, is exactly why I like it ; }

[Osage Orange]

Oklahoma will be a pretty safe freedom loving state, for the most part.

[Scarpetta]

I am not taking this lightly. Remember me. I’m in PA and can help you if you’re ever here.

[Terry Mross]

Ah, yes, Austin. That little blue circle in the sea of red. Would love to see it surrounded by the New Republic of Texas!

[johnny7]

“Fries with that...?”
