Make contact with other SOs in your area and talk about plans for mutual defense. There’s no sense waiting for something bad to happen. Take unarmed self-defense training classes. Buy a Rottweiler. Find out what sorts of self-defense items are legal for you to possess and procure them. Forewarned is forearmed, and fortunately our adversaries tend to have big mouths.

‘I don’t believe that,’ responds the public, when presented with re-offense stats.

First, a criminal complaint needs to be filed on the threats. If there is video or audio evidence of the meeting, that alone should be enough to press the authorities for a response and to sue the city if it doesn’t. If this happened to me, I’d invite those idiots to come by my place with their death threats. 😉

Second, the ex-cop mayor saying, “To put (them) at one location is a horrible idea” has it all wrong and is completely clueless on the issues. First, finding any landlord or property mgmt company to accept a PFR is near impossible in all but the least desirable locations. Add residency restrictions, if any apply, and you have very few places to live, which by necessity, causes PFR’s to be forced into close proximity with each other. This, of course, is only a problem in the minds of those with the “banishment” mob mentality.

Third, the community should be appreciative of New Day, not against it, for being willing to take up the daunting task of providing housing to a segment of the population that nobody wants to deal with. I’ve seen mindless opposition in my community against organizations serving PFRs, only to have their outcry answered with success stories. No crime sprees occurred, no reports of predators menacing our community, no headline making stories of child rape or murder… just people going about ordinary living such that you wouldn’t notice it at all.

All I can say is that our founding fathers made a declaration of independence over much lesser grievances, and these fools are happy trample on the freedoms that made this nation great in the first place. If they succeed, it will not only be to their downfall, but to that of our nation as a whole.

Between the recent spate of mass shootings, those Purge movies and that nonsensical “Q” conspiracy, I no longer feel safe where I live.

The label gives people the green light to bully, hate, discriminate. We’re set up to be indiscriminately culled.
