Re: Update
I have been embedded, with ArmedBear, as your representatives in Occupied California for five years now. In December, I am returning to the U.S. for a week to begin our plans for escape, and am much looking forward to it. We hate to leave those who value freedom in their time of need, but their numbers are waning and we must save ourselves before it is too late. In the meantime, we wait and watch for the opportunity to garner support for a revolution.
However, some days we do feel hopeless. The situation continues to deteriorate, with recent legislation to ban handguns in the Bay area being a huge blow. Our freedom, such as it is, hangs from the thread of a shredded Constitution, and we cannot count on the Governor to veto all of the restrictions passed by the thugs called representatives, as he is by nature and necessity a politician. Nor can we count on having even a somewhat conservative Governor in office for much longer.
In regards to 'Project Poster' (see this post), I have been quite ill, but intend to follow through as soon as I have regained my energy. The plan is for ArmedBear and I to sweep campus early in the morning with several dozen copies of appropriate posters. We will especially post them near signage encouraging students to carry cell phones to protect themselves from rapists and robbers.
We are gratified to hear from you, and hope to have good, or at least amusing, news to report soon.
Apprehensive, but hopeful.
