1. It is my understanding that FL Gov. Rick Scott has a lodge and acreage in the American Redoubt and a private jet to get there.

   So, if the going gets tough in this country, he may be out there to help lead you folks through uncertain times.

   I would encourage folks to use the 1st Amendment to express your thoughts on gun control and his actions as Governor, to him, in a polite, civil, and respectful manner, if you happen to run into him.

   His term ends at the end of the year, and he would like to represent FL in the U.S. Senate, but I don’t think that is going to happen now.

   He may end up in one of PDJT’s revolving cabinet positions, probably a bad thing for gun rights advocates.

   There are other politicians, bureaucrats and academics with homes in the American Redoubt as well and it would be wise for folks out there to take note of their historical actions.

2. Something else that is going on that will effect all of Oregon. A proposal to ban “Assault Weapons” and so called “High Capacity” magazines. It started as a submittal of Initiative Petition 42 late last week by an interfaith group based in Portland. Which 42 was quickly withdrawn and then re-submitted as 43, to correct minor wording errors to keep from being rejected. Using an anti-gun protest rally on Saturday in Portland (The Peoples Republic of) the interfaith group was able to garner over three thousand signatures. One thousand valid signatures are only needed for the States Attorney General to begin a ballot title drafting process. Once completed, the petitioners then must get over 88,000 signatures by July to put it on the ballot for November. The initiative which is opposed by pretty much anyone against their rights being taken away (left, right and the middle) will file an appeal to the Oregon Supreme Court and during this process no signatures can be gathered. Here is a link to the initiative https://www.scribd.com/document/374886966/Assault-Weapon-Ban-Initiative-Petition-43#from_embed

   The battle for our rights continues and I wanted to get the word out to readers of this blog and for the Oregonians who come here that may of not heard about this yet. Please do what you can to help oppose this flagrant attempt at tyranny.

3. Can’t wait to hear Gov. Scott “lead” JWR in survival tactics. Or tell Pat what knife he should use to skin a deer. Maybe he can correct Avalanche Lily’s canning technique. Just what CAN he do?

4. The time has come, folks, to realize that nobody is looking out for us in Washington. Only thing our elected officials are looking out for is themselves. The swamp is thriving like never before, contrary to recent promises of change. Politicians humor us and tell us what we want to hear, but at the end of the day they all gather for a cocktail, slap each other on the back, and grin about how the masses are being manipulated. Time to wake up folks, you are being led like sheep.

5. We must continue to look to each other as we create the liberty for ourselves and others that we desire. Those who promise to “drain the swamp” or anything else that we feel too small to do alone, plays down to our fears.

   I’ll offer you a couple of quotes that, IMO, speak to what I say.

   “This and no other is the root from which a tyrant springs; when he first appears he is a protector.” – Plato

   “In all our associations; in all our agreements let us never lose sight of this fundamental maxim – that all power was originally lodged in, and consequently is derived from, the people.” – George Mason

   Carry on.
