Outstanding explanation of the current state of *our* government from Flyover Press
By John W. Whitehead via The Rutherford Institute
“What the government is good at is collecting taxes, taking away your freedoms and killing people. It’s not good at much else.” —Author Tom Clancy
Call it what you will—taxes, penalties, fees, fines, regulations, tariffs, tickets, permits, surcharges, tolls, asset forfeitures, foreclosures, etc.—but the only word that truly describes the constant bilking of the American taxpayer by the government and its corporate partners is theft.
We’re operating in a topsy-turvy Sherwood Forest where instead of Robin Hood and his merry band of thieves stealing from the rich to feed the poor, you’ve got the government and its merry band of corporate thieves stealing from the poor to fatten the wallets of the rich. In this way, the poor get poorer and the rich get richer. All the while, the American Dream of peace, prosperity, and liberty has turned into a nightmare of…

“The only maxim of a free government ought to be to trust no man living with power to endanger the public liberty.
Oh, sorry again, that was John Adams.
So I share the sentiments of the first three presidents on what government is, and I would love to live under a constitutional republic. Someday, I hope to.
Its absence and lack since long before I was born has been keenly felt in this country, and want of it is killing us. And by no means only metaphorically.
The time to start slitting throats is being forced upon us, but we’re not there yet.
I inherently and immediately suspect anybody that argues for going there until all other options have been exhausted.
So until that day, the order of the day should be to so harry, harass, hinder, delay, and obstruct the machinations of the current metastasized abortion that they wonder what hornet’s nest they’ve kicked over every waking moment of their lives, and those who would subject us to the very slavery our forefathers shrugged off at perilous cost drop the reins of government as though it were a red hot iron in their hands, repent of the vines and weeds they’ve sown around the nation’s liberty as we hack them down and uproot them, and that they would flee with all haste to some more agreeable climate, physically if necessary”

Some of the things I use to improve my accuracy with shotgun,rifle and handgun-
After you have become familiar with your weapons,learned how to safely operate them,fully understand the rules of safe firearms handling,and to hit targets with a reasonable degree of accuracy,here are a few ways to improve your accuracy,increasing your chances of surviving in any SHTF scenario.
One of the best ways to practice hitting a moving target with a shotgun using slugs,or a rifle is to take and old tire,duct tape a target to it-so target covers the hole in center of tire-then depending on your surroundings-you can have a friend roll it down an incline,the tire will bounce as it rolls,because whatever hill you roll it down is not going to be smooth. If you can’t safely do that- you can set up a sort of tire swing and push the tire so it swings back and forth. Just be sure that whatever is behind the target is going to stop your bullets. (preferably a dirt berm). Shooting at a moving target is great practice for deer hunting,small game hunting,even combat shooting.
Another good way to improve your accuracy is to have a friend toss plastic 16-20 oz water or soda bottles that you have filled about 1/4-1/2 of the way with water in the air for you-(for shotguns only)-or toss them so they roll and bounce along the ground for shotgun,rifle,and handgun practice. You are not going to hit many of them with a handgun or rifle-as it is very,very difficult to hit a moving target that’s that small with a rifle or handgun. It can be done,it just takes skill,and a lot of practice.
Another thing you can do is hang several of the same plastic bottles,and 2 liter plastic bottles,about 1/4-1/2 full of water from a tree branch-or a frame that you have made-give them a good push and they will swing back and forth for a couple minutes-long enough for you-or a friend to start them moving,then get back behind the line you shoot from.
Shooting clay targets that have been thrown with a hand clay thrower,rather than shooting at a range,where the clays fly the same way every time-or at least the same way from each stand,is a great way to hone your shooting skill-shotgun only, handgun if you have enough property that there is no danger to any other person,or others property.
One more thing I use to hone my shooting skills is to take a bunch of clay targets,drill a small hole in each one,then hang them from a tree branch,or a frame that I’ve made with fishing line-you can buy 1,000 yard spools of monofilament line for a few bucks at Wally World. This is great for handgun practice,rifle practice too,if you have the room,and a safe backstop.
The times when you don’t have a friend to toss targets for you,do what I used to do when I was a teenager and wanted to keep my shooting skills sharp-take empty beer or soda cans,toss them up in the air with one hand,while holding your shotgun in the other,then shoot the can as it’s on it’s way back down. This is a great way to practice getting on target quickly. You may miss more than you hit at first-do not give up-because once you start hitting most of the cans you toss up,you will miss much,much less when hunting rabbits or pheasants or grouse,or ducks and geese. Being able to hit game helps out a lot when you are counting on eating that game for dinner,and feeding your family with game you have harvested while hunting.
My suggestion is that after you have become able to hit your target regularly,you go take as many of the tactical/combat shooting courses offered by various guys/groups as you can afford. There are a lot of guys/groups conducting classes for tactical or combat shooting for rifles,shotguns and handguns-take advantage of the courses-they will increase your chances of surviving should any of the fucked up shit that is likely to happen here takes place.
There is a reason for taking these classes,these guys know their shit,unless you are a recently returned from combat vet-the rest of us don’t know shit about combat shooting,or how to move,shoot,and communicate as a team.
My recommendations for training…

You do have a team by now-right?
If you don’t have a team,work on it,there ARE guys in your area that want to be able to survive any of the fucked up shit that is very likely to happen here-it takes time,you will find other guys.
Even if you don’t have a team,you are doing PT every day,right?
Reasons why you need to be doing PT,and putting together a team/group/tribe…
Hopefully more of you are getting wise to all the bullshit our government is doing-as in taking away our rights a little at a time,the possibilities of our economy quickly going in the toilet again,only worse than last time,and for much longer,the ever increasing militarization of our police forces-which are become more and more like jack-booted thugs,and less and less than the police that used to “protect and serve” We,as in anyone not a cop-are the enemy,an Indiana sheriff,while discussing his dept’s new MRAP, said the USA is a war zone,and citizens are the enemy.
The government’s “regulatory agencies” such as the EPA,BLM,USFS,USFWS,BATFE,DEA,etc. are all heavily armed now,and all have their own “special” units-as in their own versions of SWAT teams.Aside from that,they are overstepping their authority,enacting rules/regs based on what the enviro-nazis and animal “rights” whackos tell them to do. We no longer have any input,the enviro-nazis and animal”rights” whackos are trying to get ALL lead ammo banned,the HSUS,PETA,and the rest of the animal “rights” whackos are trying to get all hunting and trapping banned on all public lands.

Good read-think about it-it’s spot on.
This War officially started April 12, 2014, at the Bundy Ranch in Nevada. It is the War Against Tyranny, and especially the tyranny that has appeared in the USA. Yes, it also “started” in the ’60s, or ’30s, or 1913 or 1860 or 1791. Everything leads to something, so it’s a process. Still, no matter the legal issues involved, it was April 12, 2014 that many Americans–for whatever their individual reasons–first said No to tyranny in this century. And meant it.
This essay is one message and it’s the same message as that day: The tyranny is done. It’s over. It won’t be tolerated. It won’t be paid for. It will be stopped. Americans have always stopped tyranny the world over, and now we’re going to stop it here.
“Ha ha ha,” you snicker. “So who’s going to stop it?” The answer is only too simple—anyone and everyone who decides…

Hopefully more of you are waking up to the bullshit our government is doing-it’s no longer we the people who are being represented by our elected officials.
Our elected officials are looking out for themselves,their families,their friends,and those who financed them getting into office.
None of them give a shit about you and me.
Our government is taking away our rights little by little-most people don’t notice,or are just too damn busy watching the tee vee.
Some of us are too busy busting our asses to make ends meet.
All of us should be building up a supply of stuff we use every day,because when the SHTF,there will be no running out to the local quickie mart for paper towels,TP,a gallon of milk,band-aids or ibuprofen,or some kind of microwaveable mystery meat.
Once things go south-and they will-if you think the ’08 economic meltdown sucked-just wait ’till the new and improved version takes place-it’s gonna be a lot worse,and it’s gonna last a lot longer.
All of us need to have at a minimum,a 6 month supply of food,water,first aid supplies,prescription meds,personal hygiene products,fuel for whatever cookstove and lanterns we have,along with fuel and oil for stuff like logsplitters,generators,ATV’s,tractors,and our cars/trucks.
Gasoline can be stored for a long time, as long as you add a product like Sta-Bil to it.
Your car/truck needs to be kept fueled up all the time-none of this running it down until it’s running on fumes-a full tank of gas can get you- on average-400 miles away,and that may be what we have to do.
All of us need to have hand tools,like saws,drills-(actually it’s called a brace)-axes,sledgehammers,woodsplitting mauls and steel wedges,machetes,hatchets,picks,mattocks,shovels,rakes,small sledgehammers,and tools to work on cars/trucks.
I wrote lists of what we need at prohillbilly.com several years ago-check them out,adjust to your personal needs,and start stockpiling the stuff we need for a SHTF scenario.
Just a quick word about weapons…
We should all have a few rifles,a shotgun,and a handgun.
We should also have a muzzleloader or two each-ammo wont last long in a SHTF situation,Pyrodex or Triple7 is fairly inexpensive,lasts for years as long as it’s stored properly,plus lead round balls are really cheap,as are hunting bullets and sabots-good thing to stock up on,plus your muzzleloader can be used for hunting,and it will attract much less attention than a 30-06.
Everyone should have a compound or recurve bow,and a crossbow,they don’t cost all that much,and don’t require ammo,as arrows can be reused,and can made if need be.
I’ll go into weapons in detail in the next few days or so.

This is a plan for those who are just getting started in prepping/defensive training,read it,alter the plan as needed to fit your personal situation,and it’s a great plan.
Below are links to a series of articles from WRSA for those just getting into firearms,the posts are old,but all the info contained in them still applies today…

I wrote this a few years back for prohillbilly.com

And this-

Here’s the link to prohillbilly.com’s home page,in case the above links don’t work right.
Bloomberg’s still an asshat-he stated that he was “sorry” about the recalls of two state senators last year over the Democratic state legislature’s gun-control laws, but added that their districts were so “rural” that, “I don’t think there’s roads.”
What a moron.
We have an invasion of children from central America and a president who believes in giving them all defacto amnesty.
The problem with this,aside from the obvious-is that many of these kids have diseases that we are not used to seeing here,including antibiotic resistant TB.
We will have a TB epidemic here,and soon.
It’s explained better than I could explain it here…
Anyone who is not actively prepping needs to start-now. The TB epidemic is just the beginning,wait ’till the new and improved version of the 2008 economic meltdown happens-it IS coming.
Another thing everyone should understand is that you will not survive on your own,you need a group of like minded people,like a tribe.
You need a core group of people you can depend on,your group or tribe whatever you want to call it,also needs to train,as in tactical training so you can defend your home or bugout location.
Everyone needs to be in good physical condition,you need to do PT-no you have to do PT.
That means get your fat ass off the couch,shut off the TV,and work out.
You need to hike with your gear,so you know what works,and what doesn’t.
Just having a supply of food,guns and ammo ain’t gonna cut it.
You have to be able to defend that supply,you and your tribe have to be able to function as a team.
You all need to get the best training you possible can,either find a recently returned SSGT from the misadventures in Afghanistan/Iraq,or take classes from one of the guys/groups out there who provide tactical training.
If you can not function as a team,know how to deal with unforseen changes to your plans,be able to provide emergency medical care,be able to overcome the fuck ups that will happen,then all the work you put in to being able to survive whatever bad shit happens was for nothing.
Learn-there are plenty of guys providing a shit ton of for FREE ways to be able to function as a team, on the ‘net,there’s free tactical advice,free comms info,free info on how to set up your group/tribe-everything you need to know is available,most of it for free.
Do more PT.
Train for every possible scenario.
These guys have been posting about shit longer than me,and they know a hell of a lot more about a lot of things than I do.
I can,and will cover the basics-and the things I am an expert on…
