When you don’t have internet, live in the middle of nowhere, have limited Television, and that person is preparing for a Civil War, what does that tell you?
I spent this past weekend at my cabin doing a little bow hunting. Or should I say, I sat in the woods watching and listening to squirrels make a lot of noise.
I had informed my closest neighbor in that neck of the woods I’d be up. So about lunchtime Saturday I made my way out from my hunting spot to have lunch and to shoot the shit with my friend.
Let’s just say that if Trump is impeached this guy who doesn’t have internet etc… is ready to throw down. Secluded from the world, he is done with these communist taking over our country.
Seeing as how I wasn’t going back out hunting till later that evening we broke out the guns to do a little practicing. I needed to get the Spartan build sighted in and see how she ran. It’s been a couple of weeks or so since I finished building her and I was itching to see how she performed.
Not only is it pretty to look at, she is deadly. Didn’t take long to sight her in but I could drive nails with this gun. Very happy with this build. Might be my favorite one I’ve built so far.
I headed back out to a different hunting spot around mid afternoon and stayed out until dark. Again nothing. But it was nice to sit in the peace and quiet of the woods and just contemplate the situation we find ourselves in.
Before I went off the grid Friday I received an email from the editor of the Salisbury Post. I had submitted an article to them a few weeks ago and they had contacted me saying it was going to run. But free speech isn’t free. The editor backtracked on publishing the article and stated that if I wanted to rewrite the last two paragraphs he would publish it. He was afraid I was inciting an uprising against our govt. It’s an article I had previously published here on NCRenegade. I declined to rewrite it. Just thought I would try and spark a conversation in enemy territory. So be it.
Then to hear the thoughts of my neighbor, pretty much solidified for me that we are headed for Civil War. When all our rights are under attack and the Rule of Law is a joke, tough times are ahead.
My neighbor came back up after dinner and asked if I was ready to do some night shooting/practice. He had brought his AK with a light and I had my light on the Spartan build so I said sure. It was good to do some night shooting/practice.
Practice and train often and in different conditions.
It was good to be off the grid for a few days. I’m still trying to catch up on the news from the weekend.
I’ll get back to writing and posting some good stuff soon.

I read your original article and I did not understand it was a call for an overthrow. I parsed out of it our fore fathers were ready and willing and able and that we should too be ready, willing, able to back up our freedom. It is always nice to get away and not answer phones, text and be bothered with the internet. What is good for the soul and life to be out in the backwoods… Sounds like you have a nice neighbor. That is the kind of man you want for your six.
Great reading Wes! I’ve been off grid for a week myself! We call it sukkot! It’s always good to read your posts. And commentary on this site! Keep it up!
