Sovereignty

   Welcome to the State of Jefferson.  The next state to the south is the state of confusion, to the north is state of the Art.  Altered states are to the east, while the Pacifist Ocean resides on the western front.  We have a big barn, a sacred cow and a large dragon watching over the land, on I-5 near Weed.  It's the time and the season for ...
   There seems to be a problem with sovereignty.  The clarity is offered here by Will Grigg.  It seems that criminal capture of the protection system has created a place where there is no highway after the my way.  The police are an armed force and the 2nd amendment is a very inadequate protection.  A gun is a protection measure - carries a lot more weight than the constitution, which is paper.  The pen is mightier than the sword, bullets hurt.
   What does it mean to be sovereign?  To me - i follow natural law, not arbitrary law as defined by liars.  If the fedgov cannot follow their own rules and enforce themselves, then who are they to enforce me to do anything.  Ignorance is no excuse - their laws make no sense and would be considered micro-management in any business climate.  Or extortion.  Or lunacy.  You decide.
   What can you, a sovereign individual do?  First - read the Sovereign - A newspaper of resistance at TheSovNews.com .  Second - confirm all 'facts' with knowledge that comes from a different source - preferably both sources outside your tight knit little group.  Third - change your tight knit little group into a loose spun big group, with concrete goals for future survival.  Fourth - learn some urban survival tactics - like the workshop in Reno on Oct 13/14 to develop focus on personal needs for seniors if the grid goes down.  Hey - not just seniors.  Fifth - have a plan and keep dreaming,
   Become your own state of mind, then expand your periphery.  Change your own house and leave other houses to change at the whim of their owners.  Negotiate a compromise with your family and friends and love them dearly as you do what you need to do and not what they tell you you have to do.  Value your time and your personal energy and keep them available for when you have something to do that requires time and energy.  You can offer them to friends, but on terms that advance the community and are not a cost to the individual.
   Today's post is here, because doc like to keep the zone off beat and the comic at the top of the page needs to be there at the top of the page.  Jefferson needs to develop a few real communities to try things that might not work on a scale that if they don't work, our backs are still covered.  The drought means that here, physically, we have been over 90 since mid July almost every day and it is past the equinox - we are pushing 100 in mid-afternoon,
