I'm clear on the VA provisions for open carry from the above. Thank you!

That said, do we anticipate any part of the public event(s) taking place in one of the numerous localities/settings to which specific prohibitions apply? Do we have men who plan to open carry?

I'm seriously contemplating a full-size pistol in a drop-leg platform.

I'm coming from the Carolinas, but I wanted to peek in and see from where in PA people are coming. I was born in Scranton, grew up there and in/outside Philadelphia until age 10, then went back to Scranton for University. All of our extended family remain in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre area.

Thank you, @Kurt . I may have to forego carrying a gun, then. I don't have an active CWP of any description/jurisdiction.

I'm going to try, but doubt they'll turn the application around in less than two weeks' time (they claim a 90-day potential maximum).

Not that they would ever have reason to so much as know where we're lodging, but on the 0.1% chance they were to take some interest in it, would VA law look with disdain on the presence of some hardware in the house in which we're bedding down?

Good old milk helps with the capsaicin (active agent in pepper spray).

@khaos156-WV a simple internet search would have spared you the indignity of labeling well-meaning advice - from personal experience, no less - a "bad troll"

@Stannisthemannis

Alright, confess - which of you is responsible for launching this brilliant dindu diversion?

@Illegal Aryan

Glad to hear Youcis is attending! She's kept a lower profile recently. I was beginning to wonder if the bastards had sapped her will.

I wish I had acceptable accommodation to offer her, but as far as I know South Carolina isn't bringing any women.

@Stannisthemannis

Do we really expect thousands of them?

The reds become very aggressive if they find they outnumber us by greater than ten to one. 😆

Of course, even then the situation is far from irretrievable. To wit:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsTrnC05M6M

I'd imagine finding good men in Philadelphia is pretty difficult at this point.

I know the "diary" is utter bullshit based on the forensics, but surely the family did exist, no?

@Stannisthemannis

Well, the raw numbers can be deceptive. It's sort of a gross vs net dynamic, as illustrated here:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9ZEl4aTFb8

I thought the model was the KZ-Lager in which the Brits imprisoned the Boers?

Lol. Screen print a Che shirt featuring his well-known quote regarding the Negro.

Wouldn't he be Craster? The crazy, hermetic polygamist who lived out north of the wall? He went out into those cold woods in the first place hoping to capture explosive footage of the Westerosi version of Bohemian Grove, after all.

@SpencerReesh
Look over in the "demonstration tactics" channel. There was a PDF re: shield tactics and construction. 0.5 inch thick birch plywood in a 2ft by 4ft sheet (which can be found pre-cut, for example, at Lowe's) plus some hardware for mounting a strap and a handle.

I absolutely love the wartime version, "To Arms in Dixie"

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5YR23ss1_n0

"The Song of the Rebel Irish" was featured in a deleted scene from "Gods and Generals" (this is the full version, but the scene is also available on JooTube), and based on the lyrics is my very favorite, but it would be a lot for everyone to learn. Maybe a choice verse or two?

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aWB7_o6x6DA

Lastly (I'll shut up after this), Moseley's BUF Anthem is a partial translation and adaptation of the "Horst Wessel Lied". It was also brilliantly covered by Skrewdriver as "Hail the New Dawn", which would be a fine choice, too.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=_KtoKsT6fLI

@d.d.mcree

That second clip is proof of Anglin's Law (every anti-Trump/Hitler meme becomes a pro-Trump/Hitler meme) from before we were born!

That song was written by the two Jews who created "Cabaret", with the goal of terrifying the viewer. Lol

@VenusFröst

Precisely. The object of the culture of critique and the prerequisite for (((moral relativism))) was stripping our people of the sense of the sacred and the profane.

@Stannisthemannis

I decided against it, but for offensive use of a shield it would be hard to beat one of these on each arm! #overkill

THIS just premiered at SHOT show 2017, and will definitely be the ticket for Cville 3.0.

Just be aware that, if they do start, we have to utterly destroy them. Like Patton said, "Americans love a winner!"

@HueTheHand

If you think that thing is for hand-to-hand, you're sorely mistaken. You mount the rifle for a reason: the standoff distance.

Clearly it's going to be used for breaching/assaults, and in teams. There is a difference between CQB and H2H. If someone gets close enough to you to grab it/you before you've put them down with gunfire, you're already in more trouble than you should be, shield or not.

In situations where law enforcement will have a need for such tactics and equipment, they typically have a great deal more prep time and intel than soldiers are ever afforded. It's for set-piece assaults, not fluid warfare.

@HueTheHand

I also have a room temperature IQ, and can't possibly reason through the scenarios mentioned given the available information, before you ask.

*slow clap*

Context, sir. Look up the thread.

There's no way that the poster before me was serious about using that "juggernaut" getup, either.

I'm explaining the reasoning behind their invention and its marketing, not my intended use case

I find the idea amusing. Like the bullshit in those "Army of Two" video games. That's all. Though I have no doubt that they'll find some - and you used the appropriate term - mall ninjas in local police departments to sell a few.

And thanks for rubbing it in about your career. Lol. I was robbed of mine. Nominated to USMA by the then-chairman of HASC, but disqualified from service by DODMERB. I even tried a direct commission years later when some requirements were slackened to ease the personnel deficit brought on by GWOT, but was again denied the chance to fight.

Lol. How could you have known?! I'm picking. I just wanted to point out that I have desperately wanted that life from a young age (my grandfather did WWII, Korea, and Vietnam, and my uncle graduated USMA in 1987), and I'm grateful we have men who have "seen the elephant" in our camp.

Our high school made us do a year-long project as Seniors, sort of like a junior dissertation. You did a paper and some sort of physical project, presenting both in a formal lecture at year end in order to graduate. I did a detailed study comparing the German campaign in France, 1940 to Operation Desert Storm. Many civilians are still unaware of the Stryker ICV family. At 16, I was closely following its development and knew I wanted eventual command of one of the brigade combat teams.

My inability to wear the uniform has left a tremendous void in my life, with which only my children and this movement have enabled me to cope.

Lol. Yes, I have taken some solace in the fact that they've sort of turned out like the second coming of the early Bradleys.

Do the men in the field like any of the light armor options? How has the MRAP been received?

They are massive. They're put together here in South Carolina, down in Ladson.

Really a war that should never have been fought.

My best friend - also a Patrick, and still a Marine - fought through the whole battle of Nasiriyah right at the beginning of the war. He said it was the most miserable two weeks imaginable.

@Stannisthemannis

I dunno, man. There's nothing like the 251/16. The only thing better than flammenwerfer? Flammenwerfer x 2! Amirite?

@Knights Radiant#4735 have you been in touch with our South Carolina SBC?

Well, no. That would be a once-in-a-lifetime affair.

I knew Hungary, but not the others. That's awesome. Yeah, the Balkans love their German weapons. It's the last place still using 7.92x57 ("8mm Mauser") in any quantity. Which is a shame, because it's a damn good round. I have one of the Egyptian contract FN-49 rifles chambered for it.

@Stannisthemannis

That's glorious! Heil Hitler!

@Stannisthemannis

You've probably seen this short film (4 parts), then. But in case you haven't:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yBThvkdzW00

Features StuGs and a couple 251/16s.

@Stannisthemannis

In what part of the country do you live?

No shit. So you do the Bulge show at Indiantown Gap?

Nice. I'm actually originally from Scranton, and went back there for my undergraduate work.

Well, I can't speak from experience. "The Wire" is all that's been necessary to keep me clear of Charm City.

When I was young we did live smack in the middle of Philadelphia, which was fine. But later, my dad had to work in West Philly, which was not.

We later moved out to Bryn Mawr, and he even did a rotation at Geisinger, so we lived in Danville for half a year.

Exactly. I'm familiar with several long-serving members of our local law enforcement here around Columbia, SC, and they are unanimous in expressing their frustration at the knowledge that they can't actually police because no one up the chain of command will have their back. They're also utterly disgusted by the defeatist, lazy, and plea-happy, if not downright catch-and-release prosecutors.

These are men who felt a calling to their work (most after their military service, to boot), and can't believe what a mockery the institution to which they long ago chose to dedicate their lives has become.

It's sort of like a more compact, intense version of what I think all of us truly red-pilled feel.

Well, once you're actually exposed to the filth, you know the score. Classmates at Scranton used to dismiss my "racism" as "ignorance" I had picked up in SC. I would explain to them that Richland County, SC is equal parts Black and White, so I had lived the experience, while they were the ones ignorant of the problem because they'd never left their insulated zip codes out in the wealthy Philadelphia suburbs.

No shit? That's amazing. I want one now! Actually, do they make an RPK variant? Lol

That's really neat! It's like a battle rifle counterpart to the AK. It's actually a lot like the PSL, isn't it? Just less DMR-oriented.

When were these imported and what are they called?

We're leaving Columbia on Friday and returning Sunday. I believe there is a seat remaining on the Hate Van but at the moment our coordinator is incommunicado. I will advise him to reach out to you at his earliest opportunity.

@Knights Radiant#4735

Stormer Book Club. I just replied to you in the other thread. What group/medium brought you here?

After much research for something suitable and relatively inexpensive, plus slightly "tacticool", behold:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0196DVAJ6/ref=ox_sc_act_image_7?smid=A220OJ96SNEEVU&psc=1

And something with an anti-fog coating, or to which you have applied and anti-fog coating. It's going to be hot.

No one has. Radio silence, even via text. Stay tuned.

@Chad Radkersburg-ND

I would hope media in ND is that way. Last I checked, the population of ND consisted entirely of half a million Germans

Just got a return text. He's just getting back to civilization. Much to catch up on here. Will keep you posted - this evening at the latest. If there is space in the van, but you can't get to Columbia, one of us can likely retrieve you.

I believe that's an aerial view. I see no mermaids.

Looks like a single reasonable soul works at Vice, in their social media department: the article title says "neo-nazis", but the posting simply says "nationalists". Not that "horde" has a pleasant ring, but still...

South Carolina - first to secede - will be heard from!

If they intend to throw them we should have a means to "return to sender" with even more force.

SS mortar platoon, anyone?

I've worked out a few anti-Semitic verses using that "Spirit of Massachusetts" song that was featured on "Family Guy"

But that's not a chant, and largely for my own amusement

Lol

Simple enough to target every booking for a large number of young men from outside VA. Perhaps the reds are also being gassed.

there is no extant law to support such suits

That's another strong possibility

Far more likely than "Gasp! Spies in our midst!", which seems to be everyone's reaction thanks to the experiences of WN 1.0

Solution to the housing crisis:

Everyone grab a Zeltbahn and organize into groups of three! Gott mit Uns!

Indeed! TOS(S) the kikes!

Even without any sort of TOS violation, they are under no legal obligation to provide anyone an account in the first place, and nothing prevents them from discrimination based on politics.

We know they're lying. Of course they're lying. But that's not actionable because, with a refund, etc., they haven't defrauded us of anything.

The Cville server won't let me "@everyone", so I'm not sure how to disseminate this information as widely as possible:

I live in Columbia, SC ten minutes east of the intersection of I-20 and I-77, and an hour west of the intersection of I-20 and I-95. Like so many others, we have a van headed to Cville on Friday. We're a 5 hour drive from there.

Many people have had their lodging near Cville canceled. I imagine that some might now be faced with the choice of skipping sleeping in Cville Friday night and starting a long drive in the wee hours of Saturday morning to make the rally.

I want to put out there that, provided I could tag along for the ride up, I will be happy to stay behind on Friday and open my home to anyone traveling from South or West of here who want to break up their long trip.

I say we use their ammunition against them and return fire with several times the force. Artillery ftw.

I'm sorry to be /thatguy/ , but if we're talking about people learning the song at this point, I must insist with every fiber of my being that we use the WARTIME version of Dixie. The lyrics are FAR more appropriate and powerful.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgcaI4sz1iI

Lyrics in description of that video so they can be easily printed

Actually, even the lyrics in that description have some errors. I've corrected them here:

Southerners, hear your Country call you!
Up! Lest worse than death befall you!
To arms! To arms! To arms! In Dixie!
Lo! All the beacon fires are lighted,
Let all hearts be now united!
To arms! To arms! To arms! In Dixie!

-CHORUS-
Advance the flag of Dixie!
Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Dixie's land we take our stand,
To live or die for Dixie!
To arms! To arms!
And conquer peace for Dixie!
To arms! To arms!
And conquer peace for Dixie!

Oh, hear the Northern thunders mutter!
Northern flags in South winds flutter,
To arms! To arms! To arms! In Dixie!
Send them back your fierce defiance!
Stamp upon the cursed alliance!
To arms! To arms! To arms! In Dixie!

-CHORUS-
Advance the flag of Dixie!
Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Dixie's land we take our stand,
To live or die for Dixie!
To arms! To arms!
And conquer peace for Dixie!
To arms! To arms!
And conquer peace for Dixie!

Fear no danger! Shun no labor!
Lift up rifle, pike, and saber!
To arms! To arms! To arms! In Dixie!
Shoulder press in close to shoulder,
Let the odds make each heart bolder!
To arms! To arms! To arms! In Dixie!

-CHORUS-
Advance the flag of Dixie!
Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Dixie's land we take our stand,
To live or die for Dixie!
To arms! To arms!
And conquer peace for Dixie!
To arms! To arms!
And conquer peace for Dixie!

Well I wish I was in Dixie,
Hurrah! Hurrah!
For Dixie's land we take our stand,
To live or die in Dixie!
Away, away, away down south in Dixie!
Away, away, away down south in Dixie!

@Knights Radiant

Hey, brother. There is room in the van. Drop a DM to @SCnazi if you haven't already and likely expect to hear from him in the AM. Meanwhile, I remain willing to collect you in the Lowcountry, and I am further informed that we already have a man coming from Folly and may be able to coordinate with him to get you to Columbia, as well.

That would make us a Führerious Five for the drive to collect the van and continue onward.

Pure adrenaline, sir. Lol

This one's too slow for use in action, but great to listen to as you prepare and plan. I've had this album for a long time (it's a cassette!), and it's great.

This song includes one of the best little verses ever written:

"There's a man in the White House with blood on his mouth;
If there's knaves in the north, there are braves in the south;
We are three thousand horses, and not one afraid - we are three thousand sabres, and not a dull blade!"
