The History Of The Prepper Paradise Known As The Citadel
Eric Lach January 22, 2013, 6:10 AM

“Imagine living in a community where you know that residing in every single home in the neighborhood are people who think much as do you, respect most of the values as do you, and will not try to force any of their values on you or your children,” another post from October on The Citadel’s blog, this one written by someone with the pseudonym Just a III Guy, reads. “Imagine living in a neighborhood where you know every single neighbor on your street, in your neighborhood, and in the entire town, has qualified Riflemen inside, ready to come to your aid at a moments notice, whether to help you change a tire, fix a problem, or cover your back in a firefight with an Enemy of Liberty.”

I always knew the right wanted to force America back to the dark ages/medieval times. Here is the plan....

1. It's Jonestown with an even crazier cult leader.

[jberryhill]

2. I really like this part:

"people who think much as do you, respect most of the values as do you, and will not try to force any of their values on you or your children"

Call me crazy, but if my neighbors shared most of my values and thoughts, why would I be worried about them trying to "force" any of them on me?

3. Not a bad looking barracks actually.

I imagine those perimeter houses will be tasked with being first defense so they will need to be armed at all times.

I hope they succeed and build a dozen more.

You don't have to corral the fools if they corral themselves like this. Perfect.

I'm sure it won't take long for High Noon to arrive at the barracks. They will be shooting it out amongst themselves in no time. lol

4. LOL - It looks like someone stayed up late playing Caesar III one too many nights.

Jonestown, indeed.

[workinclasszero]

12. LOL OMG

[myrna minx]

16. "Need more plebs!"

[aquart]

5. They seem painfully short of their goals. Where are the churches, btw?

[bluedigger]

10. Why would they need more than one church?

[MineralMan]

6. Cool! They're building their own FEMA camp.

That'll save the government some money.

[freshwest]

9. LOL

[TrogL]

8. They clearly haven't thought this through

Drive something big like a snowplough or front-end-loader through the outer gate directly through the inner wall. You're now in the undefended "neighborhood". One more wall and you're into the "town center" behind the defences at the Main Gate.

[Initech]

11. Walling off a bunch of heavily armed, dangerous lunatics away from the rest of society?

File this one under "things that will not end well".

[bluedigger]

14. I only counted 122 neighborhood residences.

At one "breadwinner" per domicile that is not enough workers to run the infrastructure shown. I can only assume that the "Perimeter Houses" are barracks to house the workers needed to run the "Arms Factory"...

[Jamastiene]

15. I'm pretty sure you don't need "Riflemen" to change a tire.

“Imagine living in a neighborhood where you know every single neighbor on your street, in your neighborhood, and in the entire town, has qualified Riflemen inside, ready to come to your aid at a moments notice, whether to help you change a tire, fix a problem, or cover your back in a firefight with an Enemy of Liberty.”


Last I checked, I'm pretty sure bullets cause flat tires, not the other way around.

[Buns_of_Fire]

21. They're going to follow The Code of the West.

"If your mount breaks its leg, shoot it."

I imagine it'll be the same with the citizens. You'll note there are no hospitals or clinics noted on the map...

[arcane1]

17. They're going to need a strict birth-control regimen

Not to mention they'll all need actual money, in order to buy raw materials for their weapons factory, get their electricity, etc.


I think I've given this plan more thought than the planners

[JHB]

18. Big Walls: It's the only way to stay safe from King Kong

"John Parker green"

It's actually all a Buckaroo Banzai in-joke: The John Smallberries farmer's market, the John Bigbooty (boo-tay. TAY!) town center, and the John Yaya firearms museum.

[KamaAina]

19. Where does the burning cross go?

[Odin2005]

20. Looks like something out of a video game.

[Aerows]

22. If they actually got this place populated

it wouldn't last a week before there would be a massive shootout. All it would take would be the addition of some alcohol and a few hot-tempered individuals and they would get the war they appear to be preparing for, except it will be within the walls not outside of them.
