A group of like-minded patriots, bound together by pride in American exceptionalism, plan on building an armed community to protect their liberty.
The group, named Citadel, intends to purchase 2,000 to 3,000 acres for the project in western Idaho. The community will comprise of 3,500 to 7,000 families of patriotic Americans who "voluntarily choose to live together in accordance with Thomas Jefferson's ideal of Rightful Liberty."
According to the Citadel website, Rightful Liberty means that "neighbors keep their noses out of other neighbors' business, that neighbors live and let live."
Citadel explains that residents in the community will be bound by the following:
- Patriotism
- Pride in American Exceptionalism
- Our proud history of Liberty as defined by our Founding Fathers, and
- Physical preparedness to survive and prevail in the face of natural catastrophes --such as Hurricanes Sandy or Katrina -- or man-made catastrophes such as a power grid failure or economic collapse.
Residents should also agree that being "prepared for the emergencies of life and being proficient with the American icon of Liberty -- the Rifle -- are prudent measures."
Some of the benefits of the Citadel community include a safe, well-prepared, patriotic community where children will be educated in school, not indoctrinated.
The community will be protected by a perimeter wall that will be inaccessible to "tourists." Each neighborhood within the community will have lower walls, dividing the town into defensible sections.
The website has a link to applications where prospective residents can sign up. According to Citadel, more than 200 families have completed applications, even before any land has been purchased.
While Citadel may sound wonderful to many who are reading this, the community has posted a warning on their home page:
"Marxists, Socialists, Liberals and Establishment Republicans will likely find that life in our community is incompatible with their existing ideology and preferred lifestyles."
Citadel says that every patriot selected to live within the community "will voluntarily agree to follow the footsteps of our Founding Fathers by swearing to one another our lives, our fortunes and our Sacred Honor to defend one another and Liberty against all enemies, foreign and domestic."
I know Rmplstn will remember hearing about Bo Gritz's "Almost Heaven" project in Idaho back in the 1990's. I remember meeting and hearing people that bought land up there. A lot of promises were made that were never fulfilled- roads were never put in, you know small stuff like that!! LOL
Here's the interesting part and why you know it's a speculative business deal and NOT anything someone that was really thinking about self sufficiency planned-

Packing 7,000 FAMILIES, which could mean anywhere from 14,000 to 35,000 or more people in a 2,000 to 3,000 acre spread, them each having .42 of an acre (about the size of a McMansion lot in suburbia), then saying that they are all going to mind their own business while being packed together like that..... Yep, gonna happen, sign me up, I'll leave 20 acres all to ourselves to live amongst that many people on a postage stamp, sounds like a plan. :)
