I finally found these guys the other day - they are camped up on K Street NW, just a block or three from the gals working the World's Oldest Profession. They are several blocks from the Mall, several blocks from the K Street Corridor where all the Lobbyists work...basically tucked out of the way, so no one cares.
The wife and I were working downtown and passed their little encampment at about 11am - all the tents were zippered shut and not a single soul appeared to be up yet.
And Brock found this great video, here.

The key to this piece: No LEO in the mix. They laid low. Just as they did in LA when it got serious.
Patriots have two key forces to consider: LEO and the Mass Mob.
You have no defense against mass mobs, except to be somewhere else.
LEO knows that fact.
Both are controlled by our Political Masters.
Use this information as you will.

This is just one example of current DHS poster being issued all over the country. This one hits college kids.
Here's another for Florida:
There are many.
This is textbook stuff, folks. We have people in power who have studied Mischa Wolfe and his Stasi, among other world tyrants.
This is rhetorical, do not be so silly as to post your answers: Do you intend to live this way? Do you intend to let your children suffer the indignities that must follow? If you die without handling these problems, you surrender your children to the whims of sadists and tyrants.
No God in any Heaven will forgive you for leaving your children to people who idolize Mischa Wolfe, Stalin, Lenin, Mao...
"Hell no!" is not a sufficient answer.
Start by identifying just three responses to these Enemies of Liberty.
Just three.
You can probably find three within a five minute drive from your front porch.
Just think about it...but not for too long. Your enemies are no longer thinking, they are doing.

There is a thread going over at CA's place that articulates one of the biggest problems facing the Patriot Community.
There are those in this community who advocate that politics is useless, it's all over except the violence. That is a fair position.
There are others who believe that violence is imminent, but politics is a vital part of the process. This, too, is a fair position.
I am in the latter camp. I have read our history, and I have read the history of others. I know that without the work of Jefferson, Franklin, Adams (both) Hancock and others, the work of Washington would have been futile.
Politics is never, ever irrelevant.
Violence and war are merely hot politics.
If you advocate that everything is over except for the violence, and you don't leave your porch, right now, when you are as young and able as you will ever be, and you are calling for others to leave their porches, you are a f'n coward. If you call for violence or call for making "credible threats" then do it. Live your philosophy.
But if you don't follow through, you are a f'n coward doing damage to the chances of Restoration.
Why? Because serious men will not take you seriously if you don't walk the talk.
It's that simple.
If you say something, mean it. Stand behind it, for the love of everything, or don't f'n say it in the first place! Why? Because your inaction, your stench, infects those standing near you. Serious men look at you and ascribe your lack of intent and mettle to those around you.
Sh*t splatters.
Liberty will never be restored by hyperbole or bluff.
There are a few people in this community who call upon others to do work or take action...yet the person calling for action doesn't do the same. Ask yourself...why?
The answer is obvious to serious men.
I have met TL & CA, face-to-face. Both are serious men who will not hesitate to do what they feel is right, when the time is right. I know enough about Bill Nye, AP, Rich, Alan, Curtis, one in Tennessee, and a few others to know that the only reason they have not left the porch yet is because they have chosen not to do so - you have never seen any of these men issue idle threats or call on you to do something that they are not doing.
Why not? Because if they ever issue a threat, you can bet your arse they'll carry it through...though I don't think any of them would be silly enough to post "Hey, guys - I'm leaving my porch now!"
Serious men do not issue idle threats.
Serious men do not call upon others to go into the muck while bellowing orders from the porch.
Serious men just get into the muck, and if anyone follows, so be it.
If you are calling for men to enter the muck, you'd better already be in it, or you expose your true mettle for all to see.
Here's the thread if you want it.

This may be a good time to remind everyone what our book III to Liberty: The Fight to Restore the Constitution is and is intended to be.
First, our goal was to lay out a concise set of fundamental Liberties, those embodied in the Declaration and the Bill of Rights, those that are unalienable, those that belong to every human being simply by Right of birth and may never be morally infringed by any Government, majority or individual. We were not re-inventing the wheel, instead simply reminding folks of what our Founders knew to be true.
This book was intended to declare exactly where we, the III Percent, stood on the political spectrum. We kept it simple. We used the words and pictures of our Founders.
It is a genuine Political Platform for this election cycle (though it is, truly, timeless).
Concerned American, TL Davis, Arctic Patriot, Alvie D. Zane and Mike Brahier took the time and energy to each write a spectacular essay exclusively for this project.
Over the course of more than a month at Kerodin.com we used polls every single day to refine our positions as, literally, hundreds and hundreds of you weighed-in to include X, exclude Y, or nuance Z.
The final product is ours: The III Percent.
It is our Political Platform.
It declares to the world that we hold innate Rights to be self-evident and it declares that while we are the most tolerant People on Earth, there are limits to the burdens and injustices we will accept...even from our own neighbors.
My friends, this is the book we need to put into the hands of our allies who have not yet found us. This is the book that we need to deliver, free, to every FFL & Gun Shop in our Battleground States so that our natural allies will finally understand that their frustrations, the feelings they have not yet been able to express, the hopes they have for what was promised to us all, has a title: The III Percent.
The originial III met the Enemy at Lexington and Concord, marched with Washington, took arms and took to the field and killed the Enemies of Liberty. But fighting was not the Revolution...it was the end of the Revolution. It was the necessary conclusion and expulsion of Tyranny.
Politics was the Revolution. Men and women meeting in places like the Green Dragon Tavern to talk about how they were being treated versus how they would demand to be respected.
By any means necessary.
The Revolution happened before the first shot was ever fired.
If you want Liberty again in your lifetime for your children, you must have allies. Any man can defend his own Liberty, that patch of ground beneath his own feet. You can die alone a free man at Liberty. If that's good enough for you, so be it.
It takes an entire People to protect one another. We are not there yet.
The Enemies of Liberty are greater in numbers, resources, and today, in desire.
We never need as many as our Enemies may have...but we need more allies than we have now.
Those Patriots we need in our ranks visit Gun Shops and Gun Shows every single day of the year, and that is where you will find your allies. But we have to reach out to them.
That is why we invested our time, energy and treasure into the creation of this Political Platform...to reclaim our place and to bring our allies into camp.
That is why I have asked you to buy a dozen copies at wholesale and deliver 2-3 copies to each Gun Shop in your AO. If I could do it alone, I would. I do not have enough money or time.
Even if I had enough books and nothing else to do, there is no way Mrs. Kerodin & I could drive to every Gun Shop and FFL across Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Florida, Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, Nevada, Colorado and New Mexico - that's 10 States and the election is now just over 12 months away.
This is our modern Common Sense. Thomas Paine was read by nearly every Patriot in our Founding generation. That is how so many Patriots were on the same page, as it were, when they met, when the Sons of Liberty started lighting fires, and when the real fighting began.
I won't ask again for your help in this endeavor. This is Liberty.
Either you get it, or you don't.
If you can buy and deliver copies: Buy Here
If you can buy but not deliver: The Donate Button is in the upper right corner (or you can email me if you need a secure snail mail address).
If you can't buy but you have the time/means to deliver: Email me with your name & city.

My sincerest thanks to everyone who has weighed-in over the last few days, the blogs who have linked, and especially those of you who have gone and ordered books to hand out in your AO.
I've tried adding several PayPal widgets that will set a goal and then keep track of actual donations, but Blogger doesn't seem to like it much, so we'll stick with the button.
My wife and I have agreed that we'll take care of getting books into the hands of all 1,557 FFL's and Gun Shops in Virginia if there is enough support through the donate/contribute button. We'll cover the gas, time, and a few boxes of books, so, if you are in a position to kick-in and help buy a few books, we'll deliver them in person throughout the Commonwealth. (Mrs. Kerodin is a sight to behold when charming the lads behind the counter...)
We have folks working in Florida and Pennsylvania, two more very important Battleground States. Remember, polygonal Battlespace and every dollar gets work done.
The Nation's Gun Show (in Chantilly) was booked, so we could not get a table. Turns out they stay booked usually for a year in advance. We'll look for smaller venues across Virginia for late November and into December for some weekend booths.
For you folks who are contributing, whether cash by the Donate button or by purchasing books directly and taking the time to work your AO - let me know if you think an Honor Board is suitable over on the right side of the blog, a list of those who are contributing. This is surely not the only way to fight, and most Patriots are on the humble side, so I won't post an Honor Roll without your permission. But let me know.
Whatever you do, remember the call from Curtis: Show up!

I've laid out my Tribe's plan for the 2012 election cycle.
Here is Liberty V: Call to Action
There are, I hope, hundreds of thousands of serious Patriots across the republic who would stand with us if they knew we existed. I intend to find them in the 2012 election cycle Battleground States. My Tribe can't get this done alone.
Full details at Kerodin.com and below in the previous installments of this series.
It is time to get out there and face the Enemies of Liberty.
It is time to build the III and deploy.

Boycotts work, if people are serious.
If you deny a company - any company - 10% of its revenue stream or customer base, you win. There are many ways to do this, sometimes with a laser focus on one method, or you can evolve to exploit many avenues of attack.
They may not fold, but you win. 10% can be a LOT of money...and making a 10% ding is not as difficult as one may think.
I know this to be fact.
This series of Liberty posts is based on Concerned American's premise of a Polygonal Battlespace. Liberty is under attack from many sides and our fights must be identified, prioritized, and engaged with the intent and determination to win.
Economic Warfare is a time-tested and effective methodology.
I'd like every III Patriot to consider a singular act of economic warfare. Right now. In your town (and online when you buy gear).
If we Patriots consider that LEO will be the tool used in any serious kerfluffle, look around your town and see who is lending aid and support to the enemy. Do you have a gun shop that is focused primarily on selling to the LEO community? Do you buy your ammo from that gun shop?
Why?
When you buy online, does the company you buy gear from press heavily for LEO/Government business? Do you buy from them?
Why?
On this front of the Battlespace every III Patriot can make a difference by taking the decision to launch a war against the offending gun shops in your town. Let your buddies know to buy their bullets elsewhere. Make noise.
Walk into their shop, hand them a copy of our III book and tell them, to their faces, that they are abetting the Enemies of Liberty and you intend to do everything you can to educate the folks of your town that there are better places to buy their widgets.
Wars are won by winning battles. Not all battles are violent. 4GW.
Think about it.

A band of guys who claim to be Patriots (sorry, but there are neo-nazis involved per InfoWars, so credibility is zero) have shown up at Occupy Phoenix "...to protect 1A..."

Many Patriots in our community have floated the idea of getting together in the near future so we can meet face-to-face and look one another in the eye.
Such a meeting has obvious advantages and risks. As you all know, and I have made clear, I'm a loner. When I step off the porch, I step alone. That doesn't mean I would not benefit from meeting many of you and shaking your hands, be better for it and proud to have done it. Maybe a formal Constitutional Convention-style meeting is the best way, maybe not.
I've posted a simple Yes/No poll to the right, please weigh in.
Location could be anywhere. Topics could be benign or...not so much. We could have a podium for speakers, or not.
You should expect a LEO presence...that aspect doesn't bother me much, especially if the III Patriots in attendance use basic OpSec & Common Sense. Personally, I assume that some in our midst are LEO and some have alliances with LEO...and then there are those who will roll over and lick LEO on command. F'em.
But the ultimate question: Is it a net plus or minus to get together and meet one another?
Logistics: Many Patriots don't have the resources to get to a location somewhere in the country and cover the expenses. We can work that out among us, so don't let that be the reason you vote No.
As you can see, I have a bullet-list in this series of posts that I am working through. I'm fed up with watching the Enemies of Liberty take every advantage. They're kicking our arses, and frankly, I don't like taking an unnecessary arse-whoopin'.
Consider Curtis' thoughts on the broader issues, here.

Liberty II post grew longer than it needed to be, and actually covered two separate thoughts.
So, I've decided to answer some of the points raised in Comments of that thread here as II(a) - sorry for the clumsy deployment.
AP, I know you often take the position of Devil's Advocate, and it is a vital tool for critical thinking. I'd never fault you for looking for the weak spots in any plan...that's what real Leaders do.
I hit more than 50 real Tea Party events before they were hijacked by the Establishment, across more than 50 cities and 24 States. I was researching a book as well as throwing in with the message these folks were screaming at Washington and the Establishment.
There was hostility in the crowds. At every single city there was disappointment in the crowds of people because the "Tea Party Express" that was the headliner was offering weak tea - in every single city the people in the crowd did not hear the hot rhetoric they wanted from the stage. Remember, Tea Party Express was part of FreedomWorks - the hijackers.
I know there is un-tapped, un-satisfied outrage among the real Tea Party folks out there. Those folks will be comfortable with a III Patriot with his Go Bag and gear.
And those folks not comfortable? Well, they are the problem, aren't they? They are the ones calling themselves Tea Party for the money and power. If we piss them off...mission accomplished. John Parker did not ask the milquetoast of Lexington if he may, please, have permission to go to the Green with his gear... ;)
Let's see one or 50 of them try to throw me off the Green. You'll see me in the headlines on that day, folks.
Martyrdom: I am no martyr. This is one suggestion for action that is lacking on one front of the battlespace. I don't want anyone breaking any "laws"...that's not the point. There will be places I show in nothing more than a sanitized Go Bag, and there will be other places I show with items that our Masters have deemed I may own. Black rifles and 1911's are not permitted to me, these days... It depends on the State, local laws, and my stash of bail money and whether or not my wife will actually spend it to get my silly arse out of the pokey.
Zoomie is right - do not break any laws. And do not be embarrassed if you don't own a black rifle that is fully tricked out with spinning rims... Real Warriors know that they can show up with nothing more than a smile and empty pockets and leave with a kit that would make a WWII Gunny proud. ;)
But, I'm going. I'll be there when I can, where I can, as a fight on this one front of the Battlespace.
I'm no Leader. I'm not asking anyone to go anywhere and risk anything.
I'm going.
Nor is this suggestion the sum of my Call to Action - it is a tiny detail. There are better, more constructive ways to accomplish our goals. This one is public, in-your-face, cheap and easy.
If we can't do the easy stuff when it's easy, forget the rest.
More will be revealed in the rest of the series of posts.
Yours in Liberty,

This post is to begin laying the ground for the Call to Action and Call to Arms that will come at the end of this series. We are going to take a very quick analysis of the politcal stakes for the 2012 cycle. This entire discussion, this series of posts, is predicated on the wisdom and insight of Concerned American's Polygonal Battlespace concept.
There are many fronts in this war against Liberty. If we focus on only one, we lose. If we do not engage and win on the several most dangerous threats that are in our faces right now, we lose. I may lose, but I will never surrender.
We must identify, engage, win, and then move on.
I am starting with Politics. It matters. It matters who the politicians are when they dive into the bunkers. If you tell me that it would not be better to have Obama out of the White House, Reid demoted from Majority Leader, and dozens of RINO's and fake Tea Party Congressmen sent home, don't bother reading any further.
First: There are 10 serious Battleground States for the Oval office, worth 132 Electoral Votes.
The Battleground States: Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Florida, Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, Nevada, Colorado, New Mexico. Bush won them, and so did President Obama. If you want President Obama to be a one-term President, he must be defeated in most of these States.
Second: Look at the Blue/Red Counties from 2008. If you are in a State that matters, you need to work in the Counties that matter. (If you are not in a State that matters, we need to go to the State and Counties that matter!) III Patriots must fight where the battles exist. It is a waste of effort (often) to throw a Tea Party with a III presence in a Red County that is not at risk. Instead, consider joining the Tea Party that has the gumption to hold their event in a Blue County. Forget the hijacked Tea Party elements - there are millions of genuine Tea Party folks who have had their voices stolen. You are III - you can help them reclaim their voice and shove the hijackers into the ditch.
Third: The US Senate: In the US Senate there are 33 seats in play next November, and very importantly 23 of those in play are D's. Yes, my friends, it matters if Harry Reid is demoted from Majority Leader, in a very big way. I'm adding a column on the right of the blog listing the Senators who are up for defeat this cycle. We need to send them all home.
Fourth: Now consider the US House. How many so-called Tea Party R's were elected, only to prove they were lying genetic garbage? 87. There were 87. How many voted for PATRIOT ACT renewal, or the Debt Ceiling increase, or worse? Tea Party? No, my friends...Traitors. Let's get rid of every single one of them. Let's also throw out another broad swath of D's and Establishment R's.
Fifth: You know who your State, County, City scoundrels are...let's make sure they know who you are, too.
That's the lay of the land this cycle. As I write this we are about 53 weeks from voting again.
That's not much time.
How can the III make a real difference:
When the spring weather breaks, the Tea Party folks and the Occupy folks will be back in the streets. What needs to be different this cycle? You and me.
Sure, we were there in the first rounds of Tea Party events, and we have little to show for it. Most of the real Tea Party folks were dis-illusioned when the Movement was hijacked and their voices became silenced.
How do you and I, as III Percent Patriots, protect our allies in the real Tea Party? How would John Parker and his allies do it?
We show up to their events in full kit. 72 Hour Go Bags in place, Battle Rifles slung, Pistols in place, fighting blades strapped...everything we need for 72 hours of serious offensive or defensive work, ready to go. Stay within the law...but push it.
I call it Hard Tea. I also call it Tea III. Think about it. The masses of real Tea Party folks are not get-off-the-porch types...they are supporters, not Warriors. You are III. You are the Warriors. When a few III Patriots ensure that we are in every Tea Party crowd (at important, strategic counties & States), our Tea Party allies will draw strength, courage and confidence just by having you near...even if there is only one III Patriot in the crowd. Never under-estimate the power of a single Warrior who is ready for anything...remember how many Texas Rangers they send to a riot?
I know the biggest obstacle is not mettle: III Patriots have what it takes.
The biggest real obstacle is resources. It takes money to get to the event. It takes money to get a hotel room. It takes money to replace the lost wages of a day or two off work...especially if such efforts continue for months.
There is also a manpower obstacle. There are not enough of us. But I think that is not entirely accurate. I think there are more of us who simply do not know we exist...we have not found each other yet. We need to increase our numbers. One benefit is that so many of us live in all areas of the country. If we need a presence, we have someone close.
We need more III Patriots and we need resources (cash). I have a remedy for both, that we'll cover in a coming post. Until then think about the importance of winning on the political front. Think about how impressive 1-12 serious III Patriots would be in a crowd of Tea Party folks. Think about the fact that if you want Liberty, it's up to us.
The 2012 elections will be the most important in my lifetime. We will never vote our way out of the horrors headed our way. Nor are we dismissed from the eternal bond of all real American Patriots...to pledge our lives, our fortunes, our sacred honor to Liberty.
And think about this: If there was a Tea Party event near you that needed a III Patriot in full gear, and the only thing preventing you from getting there was gas money, food money, or hotel money...would you go if we could find a way to cover those expenses?
None of us can do this alone.

Consider AP's latest, here.
It fits with where I intend to go with the series of actions I began to outline in the post below.
You'll never talk a Tyrant out of killing you...the most for which you can ever hope is that he chooses to kill you last.
It is time to take the theories, the philosophical discussions, and the defense of Liberty into the trenches. It is time to get it done.
AP often writes that ...winter is coming... and we all understand he's not simply discussing the season.
But following this actual winter will come the Spring of the most important election cycle in my lifetime. The Tea Parties will hit the streets again when the fair weather of Spring comes...as will the Occupy tools. In the balance...everything.
Think about the hard things for the final time, Patriots.
The time is upon us to save Liberty or watch her die. You'll never save her from your porch.
Here's AP's piece.

Folks, I am going to begin a short series of posts leading to a Call to Action.
This Call to Action will also include a Call to Arms, where appropriate, along the lines of the RTC events held in Atlanta. Please understand: A Call to Arms is not a Call to Violence. Warriors always let the other guy decide which path to walk...
You and I know that the republic is being murdered, and we have very little time.
We will not vote our way out of it.
The real Tea Party folks - all of those millions of people who rose up before the Establishment hijacked the name and the Movement, are still out there. Their voice has been stolen in the national discourse. We sent 87 new "Tea Party" Republicans to Congress in 2010, and nearly all of them have proven that they are not Tea Party - they are Traitors.
We are the III. We are made of sterner stuff. It is easy to spot a III Patriot in a crowd of real Tea Party folks...and you know it. It is time for us to take point...and not just from our keyboards.
Hundreds of you helped shape and write III to Liberty. That book tells the world that we are the III Percent, we are the sons and daughters of John Parker and the original III Percent of Americans who finally stepped off the porch and ejected the King and his Loyalists from our home.
The time for mere keyboard action is long over.
There are, I hope, a few hundred thousand of us across the republic who would step off the porch...and we need to find them and have them stand with us in the face of the Enemies of Liberty. They do not know we exist, they do not know where to find us...so we must go and find them and build the III Tribe...and make the Establishment tremble.
The time of letting the Enemies of Liberty have free run is over. The only way they will stop is if we stop them.
We have about 53 weeks until Americans go to the polls again. We need to make sure that we eject as many of those scoundrels as possible...but more importantly, we need to put the III Percent on the national map, we need to make it clear that from sea to shining sea this is a land of Liberty...and if you don't like it, it's time to put up, shut up, or get out...because the trials are about to begin.
Politics matters, even though we will never vote our way out of this ruin.
But if we use the election cycle to our advantage, to find our allies, to raise our voices, to show up and stand our ground in full kit...as was noted by Walter Zoomie in a comment on this blog, you'll notice LEO at the Atlanta Occupy chose to behave when armed Patriots were in the mix. And LEO at the unarmed Occupy in Oakland chose a different path.
It is time that the modern III Percent lives up to our names.
I'll lay this out over a few posts, and I'll keep them bite-sized.
But the time to walk the talk is here.
Yours in Liberty,
Kerodin

I've read every book (except Suicide which has not yet arrived) and almost every column Pat Buchanan has published. I've shaken his hand (He would not know me). I have been at several election events for him. I have had the pleasure of meeting his wife, briefly.
One of my prized possessions is a hand-written note he sent me regarding my first book, Our Fathers Weep. I will be delivering a copy of our III book to him in the coming weeks.
It was when I read the Death of the West, wherein PJB analyzed the declining populations of the world who are the descendants of Sparta, Athens, Rome, London...and now our own republic, that I knew our fight for the survivial of Liberty was, ultimately, to be futile.
Why? Because no other people of the Earth want genuine Liberty.
When we die, Liberty dies.
And we, as a people, are dying. One simply can not defy basic arithmetic.
Liberty will live beneath my feet, and yours. But we will fall, and the folks who occupy what was our ground will not stand in the name of Liberty. Even if you do well with your children, they will one day die, and when they do they will be even more outnumbered than are we today.
I'll fight until I am dead, but I fight knowing that Liberty will die.
Here is Mr. Buchanan's latest.
Defend Liberty until you die, my friends...there is nothing more we can do.

A Patriot sent this to me in email. My ISP must have pissed off ATT, because ATT will not permit anyone from my ISP to send mail, so I don't have permission to identify the Patriot by name.
It seems LEO found some flyers that upset them. It would appear that some of the Occupy folks are laying the moral premise for violence against LEO. I read the PDF version of the flyer, it is here.
Is it a plant? Is it legit? I'm not sure. I do think there are elements of the Occupy folks who want violence for political means, which would explain why LEO across the country is moving to shut them down. Interesting, we never had a single such incident at any Tea Party, did we...
But having read the Occupy essay, there are points with which many Patriots would find common ground. For instance, the Occupy essay declares that if LEO is enforcing an unjust law then the defender may use any force necessary to resist and defeat the unlawful enforcement. I have no problem with that, and Mister Jefferson would concur.
As a rule of thumb I think most of us would agree that Self Defense is the proper line in the sand for engaging violence...under typical circumstances.
I think we are all familiar with Mark Matis - I don't think I am speaking out of turn when I say he is not a fan of LEO and I find it hard to fault his logic when he discusses that LEO will be the point of engagement when the fight for Liberty gets real. In the history of Man it has always been so.
As the Patriot who sent me the piece rightly observed, John Parker and his men were engaging unlawful LEO at Lexington and Concord. The Brits were trying to enforce "legal" yet "unlawful" laws...and Captain Parker met them with enough force to make them stop their unlawful acts.
Obviously, our Founding Generation had no problem with that...well, I should say, our Founders who chose not to side with the King. ;)
I have a very hardcore philosophy regarding this topic that is simply not properly evolved or appropriate for this venue. I intend to explore it in the most blunt terms in a published book. I may be kidding myself, but I think I run a lesser chance of being prosecuted for potential incitement when my ideas are offered in a printed, legitimate book as opposed to a blog.
But I will not shy away from this entirely: In any matter of self defense, as you define self defense at the moment of engagement, you are morally justified to meet any unlawful violence against you (violence includes the laying of hands, the verbal threat to lay hands, and any attempt to arrest or restrain) with sufficient violence as to remain at Freedom and Liberty. That's the Kerodin Doctrine.
And one more point to consider: Once you choose to step off the porch (whether you choose to announce it or not) the rules change. When you step off the porch you are at war on behalf of Liberty. If you know you are heading into a fight, win.
And remember: Never tell a man that you are planning to sneak up on him...
Stay safe, my friends...by any means necessary.

Luck plays a role in our lives every day. Some days it plays a bigger role than others.
But your day to day survival relies on tactics, strategies and skills, most days.
Cross the street without looking both ways and you get squash like grape.
Make a habit of swinging at guys who are bigger, stronger, faster, younger, and you'd better have a reserve of skills & mean that you can tap at will.
