I was at church sunday night, speaking to an old friend of mine, who was there with his wife and FOUR young children. I was discussing the coming election and asked him if he had any kind of contingency plan if things went bad. He just shook his head and said, looking a bit worried "not really." He's extremely conservative christian but he doesn't even own a firearm - he might have a 22 rifle and a .177 pellet gun. I was thinking about it later and texted him that it wasn't true - he does have a contingency plan, and it's me. I'm not a hard charger by any means, but there are SO FEW sheepdogs and so many sheep these days - we have to take care of those who cannot protect themselves.

You are right. I will help those that I truly love. Others must bring their own supplies. I have been preaching this shit for a year, and if you did not learn from covid and the riots, then why should I believe a person will learn in the middle of a war.

I was blunt to a family member the other day saying 'you would be more of an anchor than anything else'. I hope they thought about it for a while.

YMMV

We had a small Marine detachment when I was at language school. They did pretty much get beat like red-headed step children. For us running during PT consisted mainly of running at your own pace. Not a lot of formation runs. They only timed us during the PT test. Some units required you to beat the passing score by 10% to avoid remedial PT which for me meant an 8:00 minute mile so nothing really difficult.

As an 0311 that spent some time with the pogues before I got out, few ideas are more insulting.

I get the theory, and in WWII I'm sure it was accurate, but it sure as hell wasn't in the 90s! Paper pusher Marines weren't even recognizable as actual Marines when I was in...it was like a completely different branch and I was routinely embarrassed for them.

Had a family gathering two weeks ago.

One family member asked if I had a AR to sell. Then follows up saying he believes we are already in a civil war.

Then asked me why I have all my gear.

They're already making that comment in the Tweets.

Got my official word today that I'm to be armed until a yet-to-be-determined future date.  I know of several HSLD types that are on standby all week.  

I pray for peace and civility.  I suspect in some more urban settings that prayer is going to go unanswered.

Not surprising. I spent 2 years training for my MOS but shooting wasn't part of it. I had experience with an AR-15 before I joined and I qualified Expert in Basic but then never fired a weapon again in 4 years except for one range session with the Germans firing their G3s. Just wasn't part of what we did. When I got to the Reserves they handed me an ancient M16A1 and one of those 25m simulated targets with all the different size "Ivans" and just enough ammo to zero and qualify. That was the extent of our marksmanship training. They had some extra .45 ammo so I borrowed a 1911A1 from an LT and qualified expert on pistol too just for fun.

I have been thinking about this a lot since the covid shut downs. One of my sisters is on the far left. She homeschools her kids and has a very large garden at her house in a nice sprawling neighborhood fairly car from any population centers. As much as we disagree on things, I realized that if she shows up on my door step with her husband and my nieces, I would have no choice but to welcome them and fight for them. If it came to that, I would think the redpilling would be UGE, but you never know. I am hoping to be one of those people that's far enough away from the major urban areas that there will be no issues, but I also know that crazy people live everywhere. I will be keeping a sharp eye on the entrance to my neighborhood and may take a walk and have a chat with the few LEOs up the street. If all goes to hell, I have a fallback position at a friends and most of my gear is ready to grab and go. As I look at my neighbors, I can't help but notice how unprepared most of them are. Strange times we are in squad. I said it before and I will keep saying it. Plan for the worst and hope for the best.

Did we do this already? It appears to be geared toward riding us of mindless SES employees that Obama burrowed in like ticks before he left. There is lots of REEEEEEEEEE to be had over it.  

https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/executive-order-creating-schedule-f-excepted-service/

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including sections 3301, 3302, and 7511 of title...

https://fcw.com/articles/2020/10/21/trump-schedule-f-civil-service.aspx

The Oct. 21 executive order looks to reshape the competitive service by allowing agencies to reclassify policy jobs under a new schedule and give senior managers greater flexibility in hiring candidates and firing employees.
