I'm not quite certain if this is getting posted to the right place, but from what I've read so far, someone will make certain it gets to the right place.

I could probably have cut and pasted some of the words used by other newbies, Conservative with Libertarian tendencies, a Constitutionalist (although I wouldn't be upset if there were a few tweaks like "it is a federal offense for anyone who has taken the oath of office to tell a single lie). I think the shutdown should have continued but it got waylaid BECAUSE it was about to work. I could go on but there will be more later. Oh, I like craft beer, cigars, and The Big Bang Theory. If any of this indicates that I have registered on the wrong website please let me know. Oh, BTW, what grabbed me was the Twitter avatar. Not sure how to end this so.....

Welcome to the forum!

(You posted your intro in the right place)
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Welcome.

Now get out in the mix and have at it.
In a doomsday scenario, hippies will be among the first casualties. So not everything about doomsday will be bad.

Welcome friend.  Go ahead and post your opinion, just be advised that most of these guys aren't shy about giving theirs.   ;D
