http://www.people.com/article/oregon-militiamen-accepting-donations-facebook

SHARE MESSAGE FROM Jon Ritzheimer.History will be made here in Burns, OR. 2016 will be a great year for America. God Bless America and God Bless those willing to stand for freedom.
We are not asking for money so if you can send supplies or anything that will help the militia and those taking a stand then please send it to:
General Mail
Jon Ritzheimer or Blaine Cooper
Burns, OR 97720
We will humbly accept monetary donations at www.rogueinfidel.com. Again, not asking for money and care packages would be greatly appreciated.
Things we could use:
cold weather socks
snacks
energy drinks
equipment for cold weather
snow camo
gear
anything you think will help.
Thank you all for the support.

BUT NO MONEY UNLESS YOU REALLY INSIST! (Okay, I added that part.)

[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]Are they sending a squad out to get the mail, just waltz into the PO and back to base - or are they going to rely on volunteers in town to bring the "care packages" to their little fort?

I really want to see how they handle this!

12. Rugged Individualists and John Galts?

Aren't these people supposed to be rugged individualists and John Galts? Why do these people have to ask someone to send them the things they need? I do not care about whether or not they forgot to bring these things; my concern is why can they not figure out how to get these things without asking for help. Also, why can these people not live off the land? Are there not any animals in that area that they can kill to use for food and warmth? How are these people supposed to be rugged individualists and john Galts if they cannot provide for themselves without asking for help from others and using the federal government to get the help to their location?
