Plan B - Freestate Project
Free State Project ^

Posted on 11/04/2008 8:47:39 PM PST by Retired Greyhound

I have been looking into this for quite a while now. I found out about it from Walter Williams.

The American government has been steadily eroding our constitutional rights for quite some time.

Conservatives have been successful in slowing this negative process for a time, but we may have reached a tipping point.

I have been criticized on FR for talking about secession. It is something to consider. The American government has broken its contract with the people and the states.

Freestate Project is not exactly a secession movement, but it is an opportunity for freedom loving citizens to gather in a place where we can have a greater impact politically.

Conservatives will be the new persecuted. They will try to silence us and disarm us. We must be prepared.

Any attempt to secede under a Marxist president would be met with the full force of the US military.

The Free State project had a chance a while ago, when presidents had to dance around the middle. But not now. Huseein Obama will be treated by the MSM and all the talking heads truly as ‘the anointed one.’ He'll be able to get away with murder, because, whatever he attempts, if anyone argues against it, they will be buried with the charge that they are trying to destroy the presidency of the first Halfrican-American.

Quit being ridiculous.

I give Obama a few months before he’s alienated his base and shown his incompetence.

It’s stupid to talk about running away and hiding.

I’m an American. I’ll stay here and help put things back together.

We’ve got problems right now. It’s selfish for you to add to them.

I am from TX originally. It would be my preferred location for the revolution.

Plus we would have a large economy and a strong military.

the only solution I think is two or three countries where once was one America.

NH is *not* the place to establish such a ‘state’. It elected someone who will take away *all* our rights under the Constitution, which BTW he *reviles*—as given to us as a heritage by our Nation’s founders, our forefathers, and ancestors, who sacrificed *all* for the cause of Liberty, for the likes of *us*, who turned their gift into a travesty! Plus, all the *really* liberal socialists/communists from the Northeast move to both NH (esp. from MA) and VT (esp. from NY)—*not* the demographics for a promising future for such an undertaking!

It’s time for us to stand up right where we are, get involved in Conservative politics and organizations *immediately*—and tip the balance back to the Right *ASAP*!

I didn’t say anything about hiding.

I just think it is time that we free ourselves from the bondage of the Federal Govt.

Aren’t there still plenty of socialist in Alaska?

Don’t you have smoking bans in Juneau and Anchorage?

The idea is intriguing bit NH would not be my first choice for a location for several reasons. The black flies are one, the dawn of the new little ice age is another.

From the FSP forum :

"Also inappropriate to this forum are arguments about the existence of God, because they are fruitless, and because they have nothing to do with the FSP, since we will never take an official position on the matter."

No thanks.

personally, I think Texas is the best bet.

I grew up there (I live in Long Beach now)

Stop growing your businesses. Stop buying. Stop feeding the beast. Stop spending as much as you can. The only way to kill this monster is to starve it to death. Without money to buy votes, the beast dies.

Who is John Gault? Don't help the government stay alive any more. Stop feeding it !!

This should become a national movement. Stop buying "junk." Save. It's a wonderful feeling not to have to keep buying "stuff." Once you break that habit, it's liberating!

Can we please make it Texas? We have everything down here. Just have every patriot come here, kick out all the remaining Democrats that populate the state, seal the borders, kick out the illegals through state action, and start arming even more heavily.

Actually, the modern day "prophets" say Texas will be the first state to leave the union. You're going to tighten your borders because so many freedom loving people will try to move there. Eventually, other states will follow you.

Learn to hunt. Here, one deer fills our freezer. We don't have to spend on meat.
If people stop spending so much, the government doesn't get it's money. If it doesn't get it's money, it can't buy votes. Without freebies, the democrats can't survive, because that's all they do - spend money on the base.

Don’t underestimate the number of dumbass leftists up here.
It’s getting pretty bad.

Yes, smoking bans in Anchorage, don’t know about Juneau.

Generally, it still is good to be here... way good actually.

But, the point is: The dumbasses are breeding and going to public school.

Hurry! Would be the word to the FreeState people.
