We should be working with our neighbors to secure our local areas using the resources of a small and like-minded community. Here in remote Montana, where most of my neighbors have large banners hanging on their fences declaring support for Trump, the odds are higher that this community recognizes that they have a mutual liberty interest and will work together at various levels. This is the kind of community we should live in.
Security will be job number one. Establishing a simple-to-use radio communication system to replace a telephone system as a first step can be the core of a community security operation. If our plan is to hole up in our property and defend ourselves as if it is were The Alamo, then we are less likely to be successful against large roving gangs that will eventually be picking off neighbors, one by one. They will employ a well-proven tactic called Concentration of Force. But we can make this tactic less effective if we can be well organized and draw on the manpower and resources of a community. We can use a layered defense that is projected as far outside the community as is practical. We should use patrols to extend our defensive space and to deny the enemy key terrain and the ability to organize an attack upon us. Our radio communications plan for a security operation can be developed separately and designed and used to be as secure as feasible.Continue reading“Food for Thought, and Food for a Defense, by Tunnel Rabbit”
