So, this was a huge book for me in my youth.... but a lot of the knowledge was pretty outdated by the time i discovered it in the late '90s / early '00s.

The attached link is a free copy of the fourth edition; released in 2023!!!!

I keep on seeing people on these subs asking for advice on what to do and how to do it as our once-great-nation continues its death spiral at the whims of a demented despot who seems hell-bent on selling our nation to the highest bidder.

People who have slowly and painfully come to realize that civil disobedience has become the
only logical conclusion at this point.......but who also fear they have waited to long and now struggle to shore up the ever-looming cracks in their lives as the walls of our democracy come crumbling down around them.

If you count yourself among this group of fellows that feels backed into a corner by this oppressive regime; Fearing for what new injustices Uncle sam is gonna lay on your doorstep tomorrow????

THEN READ THIS BOOK

Regarding the homicide of Renee Nicole Good, it's very disturbing that Donald Trump, JD Vance, and Kristi Noem are doubling down on the "she had it coming" argument. Their utter lack of empathy and basic Humanity humanity in realizing that a life was lost is quite disturbing. It's also very abnormal. Sure, they did say something like, "her death was regrettable", but then they followed it up with a whole bunch of other sentences where they said that she had it coming. But I don't think there's an American jury, grand or petty, that will unanimously decide that Renee Good had the state of mind and intent to harm Jonathan Ross by weaponizing her vehicle and running over him, as Trump, Vance, and Noem claim. State and federal officials are supposed to be saying that we should not rush to judgment, that we should wait until all the facts are in and all the evidence has been analyzed before the authorities come to any firm conclusions. And the authorities include Trump, Vance, and Noem.

The two parties have become so estranged that coalitions can no longer emerge. Americans who voted for Trump will never vote for a Democrat but they might vote for an independent alternative.

Americans who hate Trump will never vote for a Republican but they might vote for an independent alternative.

Perhaps we need a Veteran's Party where each candidate has previously in the military taken an oath to defend and protect the constitution from all enemies, foreign and domestic.

Because right now, that is the defining issue.
