As some know, CItizens Liberty Organization is looking to become legit. We are thinking of going to NPO route. In order to do that there is a long list of obstacles to get through. No big deal. So with that said, this channel will allow to community to voice what they would like to see in the NPO. Right now we are thinking of- funding under privileged families and peopleā€™s that qualify, proper firearms safety/training courses, medical courses, possibly communications training/obtaining HAM radio licenses. Potentially helping with legal fees for those that were arrested for unconstitutional laws. Helping families that have had a loved one killed by ATF, FBI, local police with funeral services, legal fees/representation, possibly housing if it happened in their home and they no longer want to live there? Remember these are just all ideas. This channel is for brainstorming and coming up with a legit course that we can take so I and a few other admins can get the ball rolling. I plan Iā€™m putting CLO in for becoming a corporation very soon, which is the first step to becoming a NPO.

The only reason I said backing politicians is because of the currrnt system we live under. Unless we complete took over government and was able to disband the current one and set up a new one, we gotta play by the rules for now. So by getting like minded politicians in office, even if itā€™s literally our guys, we can begin to get some change done for future generations to carry the torch

My only concern with going public is we dont have a constituion written up or by-laws. We need to establish specifically what our mission statement is, how we intend to go about completing our mission, and cover our asses by making it known that anyone who doesnt abide by the set forth code of conduct; will have no longer have any legal right to associate themselves with the organization. I think we should make it clear that we have no political affiliations and do not grant the permission of any news source to mis label the organization in affiliation with any political party, or other radical groups, or militia groups etc etc.... If we are going to keep the militia/security/qrf aspect alive, then there is going to need to be a code of conduct written down on how we operate and make it clear that we are organized for defensive purposes only. To aid in the defense of lives, property, and liberties etc. Idk just my 2 cents. You guys do you.

A nonprofit can have a store front, I believe u need to have some sort of donation option with it. Non profits are allowed to make money, just not allowed to show a profit at the end, so it all goes to cover expenses of the NPO.

I think having a user submitted contest would be cool though. Seems like we have a lot of creative people here, I'd love to see other peoples design ideas too.

Honestly 1. Experts are expensive and we are all poors lmao 2. That data set is so well know and ubiquitous that it would be a qaste of limited resources to conduct an actual study. But maybe a good old fashion poll, like in person, with the results made public would be an alternative

> I'd like to see some independent research done > > hire someone knowledgeable to get data put together that shows people exactly the kind of threats to our Constitution that is out there > and show how it affects daily life > > cops, laws, criminalization taxes etc @Dejectedhook04 The constitution is a threat to itself, tbh. Governments that can tax and make armies never go well. If you look at American history; it's actually quite appaling. The military was used to put down the whiskey rebellion and in 1798, mere dissent was criminalized and many were imprisoned for speaking out. Just identifying as an anarchist in 1798 would have got me arrested back then. Kinda why I don't like the document. Or the idea of another.

Also guys a NPO doesnā€™t do anything political. Itā€™s basically a charity. But once established as a corporation we can branch off into different entities. My plan is to have incorporation papers filed within 4 months so hopefully we are then a corporation by 6 months.

Idk if this has been said but Iā€™m thinking for the firearms training part we get in touch with someone like Sig and just put up money for people who canā€™t afford it can sign up for classes. Sig is just an example we can do anyone honestly. Just need to make sure we donā€™t have people abusing it. Posting bail and funding funeral costs and stuff like that will be easy. We could even help find and fund lawyers for victims

I think targeting low income communities for firearms training would be a good idea too.
