Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

So he wasn't carrying anything against the law. It was just his appearance.
Yet when they raided his home they found
"A search of Alemar’s home found additional military equipment, which police seized as evidence."
other military equipment that they seized as evidence.
Quote:
William Alemar is assigned to the Virginia National Guard’s Company B, 3rd Battalion, 116th Infantry Brigade Combat Team in Woodstock, Va., according to West Virginia National Guard spokesman Lt. Col. David Lester.
Alemar deployed to Iraq from July 1 to Dec. 6, 2011, Lester said, and was assigned to Task Force 183 for convoy security duty.

Hmm, he is a guardsman, I wonder what he would be doing with military equipment.

Speaking of the OathKeepers (of which I am one), and how they're a trustworthy organization...
Ask someone over there what happened to the $17k+ (last I looked, might have ultimately been much more) that was donated for Mr. Bodeker and what happened to their uproar over that story. No one says a word now. I gave a hundred bucks to that fund, because the OathKeeper organization said we should help. To not answer questions about updates and refuse to speak of it any longer is a slap in the face to those who gave, and were genuinely worried for Ren.
To say that someone belongs in a psycho ward because they're questioning these guys is just WRONG. They've gotten the last dime outta me, membership or otherwise. I'm just not enough of a yes-man conspiracy nutjob to fit in over there, because I always will question those who are outraged, raise a large amount of money, and then mysteriously shut up.

Shadera, although I am an Oathkeeper as well, that is not the group I refer to in my previous post. The group of people I speak of has a chain of command, and I'd trust them more so then OK org. My group are guardians of the republic, not lobbyists like OK has become. Sorry if my post misled anyone.
As for your question...that is news to me. I do wish to know though, as i also contributed a little to that cause. And if some funds have not been accounted for, I would like to know more. Feel free to PM or email me, and I'll poke around and ask some folks. I rarely post over at OK anymore, because they are just too timid for me. I'm more like a lets get er done and quit talking about it sort of person, and don't really fit in over there.

Didn't communist Russia used to spirit political dissidents away to psyche wards to silence them? Seriously, exactly what IS different about the communists we were fearful of and sent troops off to fight against compared to what the USA has now become? When you speak of "enemies, foreign and domestic", what identifies someone as a "domestic enemy"?

That's a good question. I'll use a story I read recently to give some contrast.
Back in '94 when I went through basic/ait, the MPs were barely taught how to handle EPWs (enemy prisoners of war). That's all we called them, and that's what was beaten into us to call them. Sure, there was some riot control stuff and swat team style urban warfare type stuff, but it was minimal at best.
Now they're training MPs to handle unruly crowds here in the US, with training scenarios to boot. To keep the herd in line when disaster, or perhaps something more sinister happens. It's being stressed that they not be referred to in any way as captives, and supposedly anyone who does not agree is free to leave. But let's look at what happened with Katrina.
I'm cynical and suspicious at best, but even I can't say I don't see what is coming at us with alarming speed.

Well, one thing is for certain. We can expect to be lied to about it, no matter what it may be. If the government tries to herd you into a bus, "for your own safety", I wouldn't believe a word of what they would be claiming as the reason. Why should they stop lying NOW?

"According to court documents, a swift evaluation by social worker Michael Campbell determined Raub’s involuntary admission."
Nothing worse than having your fate decided by a low wage social worker.
