I've had several emails from Patriots either heading that way, or considering the trek.
I will offer my counsel here, as I offered it privately.
If you decide to go: Is this fight, on this ground, on this day, going to improve the odds of survival for you and/or your loved ones?
I ask if Patriots who live in that area are on the ground - and we now have confirmation that, at least, a few are choosing to show up. This is a goodness thing.
Finally: What is your endgame? Why are you going? I have seen nothing that indicates .Gov intends to arrest Bundy and family. Is your goal simply to ensure they do not get arrested (right now)? Is it your goal to stop .Gov from stealing more cattle? Is it your goal to recover the cattle stolen thus far and return them to the Bundy family? Is it your goal to reprimand the Enemies of Liberty on the ground in this action for their bad behavior? Is it your goal to simply challenge some Enemies of Liberty? (You can do that at home, right now, without the drive...)
If you choose to go, have a goal, and have an exit strategy.
Know why you are going and make sure it is sufficient reason to leave your wife and children without your protection.
And if you choose to go, or choose not to go, either way: Godspeed. You will not hear me passing judgment on either course.
Stay safe.
Here's the piece about militia arriving on the ground.
