Goodness Gracious
Okay, a bunch of folks are banning together to make a community – here, I’ll let them talk—
The Citadel is a developing community of Patriots in the mountains of Idaho who believe in Jefferson’s Rightful Liberty and have chosen to live amongst one another, who have sworn their Lives, their Fortunes and their Sacred Honor to defend one another and Liberty.
Oh, yes. These guys are deadass serious. So this looks like a prime location for all those Texans who want to secede.
The cornerstone of the Citadel is III Arms Company, an industry to support the first wave of Patriots who will become modern American Pioneers. We will build Fighting Arms and ammunition for Patriots and around us a town will begin to grow. Other revenue streams are already in the works. Our intent is to purchase at least one thousand acres, and construct a walled town of at least one square mile to withstand any potential violence from hungry, diseased Souls. Obviously the Citadel is not being built to defy any laws of the United States or the State of Idaho, or to withstand any .gov or .mil attack. Our fortifications are merely defensive for a SHTF world.
A hoard of deranged paranoid people locked inside a mile long wall with a bunch of guns. Oh hell, what could possibly go wrong?
Thanks to Robert for the heads up.
What we need is to set up a non-profit that will pay people’s way to this Citadel—all secessionists on board!—let the long Texas nightmare and humiliation be over! I would be proud to support such a cause.
1That makes it so much easier for the black helicopters to know where they are. Might as well put a bullseye on the roof.
2Plus if they set up web-cams throughout the walled-city maybe they can sell a reality show to one of the cable stations and there ya go – another revenue stream for them!! Seriously – let people go off to live like that if they want to do so. Better that they’re behind walls than having them in the neighborhood with their arsenal.
3They see zombies……..
4Do they realize that walled cities became obsolete with the advent of aeronautics? I distinctly remember reading about the carnage in some of the ancient Chinese cities when bombs were dropped (WWII?) because the walls focussed the blast inwards instead of letting any of it dissipate any direction but up.
5I say let them go for it. They need some hard lessons in what it really takes to have a civil society and run a government. You know, little things like a power grid, potable water, sewage treatment, decent roads, snow removal of said roads, street lights, fire protection, etc. etc. etc.
6Why nothing could go wrong, nothing. I mean why would you say that when nothing, I mean, oh heck with it…….BWAHahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!
Whew! I feel better now. 😉
7Anybody else completely NOT surprised they wanna do this in IDAHO???
8“…not being built to defy any laws of the United States or the State …”
More whacky than Waco, and that didn’t end well, did it?
9Oooooh boy! I needed a little tonight.
10I had to look up SHTF in Urban Dictionary. It means S[tuff] Hit The Fan, a survivalist term for the big breakdown in order and society. I’m guessing that if we had fewer of these nutjobs running loose, we could postpone SHTF almost indefinitely. But I’m seeing an FBI/ATF raid in their future.
11Good grief.
12Drones. Yeah, I think drones might just be appropriate in this case.
Cranky Hippie in the Hollar.
13How long before they turn on each other?
14Hey, do they need a professional governor?? We could nominate pretty Ricky! I heard he wanted to secede awhile back-before he found out it was traitorous! But he’ll be all over that defending Liberty stuff!
15“hungry, diseased Souls”???
Huh? Are they expecting the Zombie Apocalypse?
16Wait…what about all the diseased souls on the inside?
17Please God, don’t let them breed.
18hmmm… maybe they should be encouraged. This is what Mexico did with their unrepentant Fascists in 1942… let them have a commune out in the Baja, on the condition that their leaders join them. Where they proceeded to go broke, bicker among themselves and finally had to appeal to the government to keep them from starving. The government built a road in, and the saner ones took the road out.
19Hmmm. I remember a movie called The Village, by N. Night Shyamalan.
20My personal dream would be that the Secessionists take claim an outside territory, like Samoa, and then go there. Any native Samoans that want to move into the states we could allow to take the Secessionist’s place.
Added bonus… watching the Secessionists try and convince the remaining Samoans that all these white people know best how to run everything. Something tells me there might be a few disagreements.
21I’d be willing to pitch in a few bucks for the wall as long as they agree to put the locks on the outside.
And why is it that I get the impression that in swearing their Fortunes to defend one another and Liberty they aren’t actually putting up a lot of cold, hard cash? (The value of their Sacred Honor is also questionable.)
22Well, this is a new first. The lunatics are actually building their OWN asylum.
23Mike……bwahahahahahahahahaha……man I spit coffee all over the IPad…..well it cleans up easy.
24Preferably on seceded land .
Isn’t it interesting that the great fear remember that there would be an Obama interment camp?
Well I guess they couldn’t wait for POTUS Obama and went ahead an did it on their own.
I would really like to be a fly on the wall when all those Citadel folks get together and have to decided something for their homes. All those paranoid, gun toting people? Might make a good horror movie!
25Soooo, I guess the Doomsday Preppers have themselves a theme park! (BTW funniest show on television!)
26Mal, what did the Samoans ever do to you?
Diane, just what I was thinking–they’re building their own camp. I’m interested in that arms company (“fighting arms”–I believe those are called “weapons.”)
Wonder if they plan to mine their own iron and make their own steel.
27Are these people engaging in self-internment then?
28OldMayfly says “Wonder if they plan to mine their own iron and make their own steel.”
That’s my standard response to all those “I built it” bozos.
29A community where like-mined people can work together to benefit each other? Sounds like a commune, which makes them *puts on sunglasses* Communists!
30Oooo, cheez whiz! About 11 years ago I heard people opine that a 200 foot wall should be built around Afghanistan and then flood the place. Look, ma! These Patriots are doing it all by themselves!
31@Graham, with all them fightin arms, won’t be long before it’s “self-interment” I’ll bet!
32One way to keep Obama from taking your guns.
33A friggin’ B&B??? Oh lovely. “Let’s walk down and check out the gun museum after breakfast, shall we dear?”
34Mike, your comment is supreme LOL, but JT NAILED it.
35JT,JT,JT!
I think I just oopsied?
I applaud this idea – I live in a small town full of modern “christians”(R) and often find myself praying for a rapture to take them and their judgements away. I would enjoy a few spontaneous smiles and a bit of love before I die.
