Lol dip made me dizzy the one time I tried it Quote HistoryQuoted: SNIP
Quoted:
Its easy. You just have to drink a fuckton of water, and salt your chow to taste. Occasionally put a dip in. It worked for me. Well scratch that then. But seriously, you just have to drink enough water and remember to eat lightly salted food/snacks and you're fine. Its 90 percent mental anyways, I've seen out of shape gross looking dudes kick ass on ruck runs and long patrols. But don't get me wrong, if you are fat and out of shape it makes wearing plates and carrying a bunch of shit suck a LOT more. You don't have to be RustedAce to hack it though. |

"What do you mean wear my body armor? It's hot outside and it makes me uncomfortable!" It sucks and it's miserable, but it's doable if you're accustomed or capable of strenuous physical activity. Obviously, age and overall health will be a factor here. Like others have said, you drink water, wear a hat or brain bucket to protect your grape from the sun and don't expend more energy than you're capable of. |

Just finished reading Collision Course, by David Crawford. My brother bought the book almost a year ago, recently finished it and sent it back. I had read David's other fiction, including Light's Out in the meantime, since he made me aware.
I think I'm going to try and write a short story, or few, working up to a novel. My Blackhawk carbine case houses 15+1 30-round magazines, including the two bandoleers that hold 6 mags each. ETA: Don't know how this posted, but won't delete (maybe drunk like Mr. Horne.) |

Bring a cheap gun that is fully legal in every conceivable way. Bring cheap body armor, there's not much reason to wear it unless shooting starts and like the gun expect it to be seized when you leave. Ammo is a tricky situation, you will want enough for all possibilities but like the gun and the body armor you are going to lose it too when you leave.
Even if you brought a registered MG, a truck load of ammo, and some super high tech nano armor the costs of fighting in court to get it all back will still be more than the stuff costs new. |

Riding a horse while weaponized is harder than it looks in the movies folks. It is very uncomfortable for both rider and horse. This is why Calvary was used to scout.
Nevertheless I'm going to show up a horse back at the next event just cause I can.

So your plan is to stay in one place while people with better equipment and training maneuver on you. Could work... My plan then would be to jump on my horse and run away useing a flashlight. But chances are if there is 10-13 men most likely with dogs moving in on little ole me, I am done for without some well placed pyrotechnics, cover fire and back up gen III night vision or no. If I was fighting people with night vision, the last way I would do it is overtly. I would lay mines, and entanglements, and traps, and shit like that. I would use smoke (wont work with thermal) to manuver and light to even the odds. I would light fires to burn the prairies so that they had no place to hide and train guns to take them in the knee so their noses cant leave the dirt, I'd mine the cover and make it inviting. Basically I'd Do everything I could to make their advantage hard to use. What I would not do if fight them on their terms. What I Would prefer is not to fight at all. If I was out there protesting, or guarding the mans cows, My main goal wouldnt be to fight, it would be not to get shot by the feds who want to fight. That means avoiding them, especially in the dark. |

The game is rigged. However, a large number of armed citizens physically standing up to them and declaring "This far, no further!" can become a rallying cry amongst the people and the .gov ends up looking like a bunch of REAL jack-booted thugs in the "Court of Public Opinion". This is perhaps the first time we have seen the 2nd A brought to bear as the founders intended, whether shots are ever fired or not. Inability to enforce laws and execute court orders is not something that goes hand in hand with an effective government.
I'm rusty on US history so I'd be interested how Uncle Sam has handled similar situations. |

A Colt .45 and two zig-zags, baby that's all I need!

A really nice suit, a good lawyer or two, media coach, and a good haircut. Fighting the BLM and the Feds on your ranch is a losing proposition. Fight the war in a venue where you have a chance of winning, legal and media. This is how you don't get deaded. |
