  • The last community I created spawned off Reddit before the final nail in my permaban coffin.

    Local subreddit had left leaning counter culture folks wanting a safe space to learn and train in firearms. We’re spread out in smaller suburban communities, small city nearby…bigger cities 150-200 miles away.

    I’m an organizer and planner and saw that they needed me to put it all together build our community. We opted to be non-affiliated directly with the SRA/Pink Pistols and have contacts, people in those orgs we’ve collaborated with.

    I created signal group, we joined one of the local gun clubs. We talk, we plan, train and collaborate. I’ve organized multiple Stop the Bleed trauma response trainings and opened the community other folks of mutual interest.

    The foundation of community building is from training martial arts most of my life.

    Start somewhere, look at you list of goals, pick one and start doing it. Connect with those around you. Be open, receptive and compassionate…you will meet your people as you walk through life.


  • How tf is this question controversial?

    Weird to frame it that way.

    Build community through mutual interests, hobbies and passions. Identify and define, communicate and collaborate.

    Supporting shared ideas, stories, concepts and strategies.

    Define the interest, see who’s onboard, communicate the intention and call to action.

    Disseminate, discuss and determine how to do it better, what was missing, who else can be involved and do it again.

    Make a point to engage the people you interact with. Be a good neighbor. See where and when you can help or support those around you.

    What are u asking op?










  • The future is now. We are in it.

    No point whatsoever in feeling scared or fearful. Let tht awful feeling be a springboard to action, preparation and community building.

    Do something today, plan what you’re going to do tomorrow. Collaborate, train and keep learning. Focus on your health and the health of those around you.

    I am not afraid. I’m ready.
