Good to hear from you @Catman Iโm trying to get the message out to all the New England states about this chat. We have a lot of ground to cover up here!
CT Here, I used to work at this place. Its a small family owned local restaurant/bar. Now the owner is getting death threats just for letting a couple people sit down and have a beer while they wait for their food to be ready
Yeah we just need a way to vet people. Face to face meetings would be nice to build trust. Thatโs why Iโd like to meet up for the rally on Saturday. Get some faces to the name and build trust. Itโs just a more secure way to plan since discord isnโt secure.
I think itโs a step in the right direction no doubt. However I feel like everything should be done face to face. Anything that needs signal I think shouldnโt even be talked about on there.
Signal would be used to plan meetups and organize range days and such. I get anything really deep shouldnโt be thrown on any social media platform that should be saved for face to face. Your guys call. A group decision would be best. Itโs there if we want it if not no big deal
Signal is fantastic, and pretty bulletproof. Maybe it should be reserved for groups at city/county level. Seems that's where vetting would be easiest. If someone shows up for a range day that nobody knows aside from some shitty meme posts on FB, just keep it cordial ad don't be too open with them. Normal group OpSec stuff.
Yeah thatโs what imagined. The sooner we can meet and kinda get to know each other the better. Trust takes time, as with getting to know someone. Itโs not like weโre doing background checks to get into discord lmao ๐
@GRANITE whats this rally on sat? I may be able to attend but im not sure. Would need to arrange babysitter. To protest. That is a sad ass sentance right there. But yeah, let me know
Thatโs fine. Signal is supposedly more secure. But a few people brought up some good points about not vetting people so how secure can we really be. If itโs easier for people to stay on discord then letโs roll with that till we figure a way to vet people and build trust
yeah im looking for one close that has the ability to move up and down the flat range. Everything is more than 30min from me which is a pain because i barley have any free time as it is.
Yeah the northeast group was started to allow members to get together when it was realized an unfortunate few from our state's had joined. The difficult part has been that being so spread out its hard to meet f2f especially for the initial meet when no one is sure how that will go. Thats why I like the idea of meeting at these rallies not associated with us. Then you have the option of just being another concerned citizen
Yeah usually up at 4 or 5. But on Fridayโs I get up at 3 now since I took on more stops. People had to have routes moved around with everything closed so i get stops from another department
Ok so the rally is tmr in concord from 12-2. The last rally I parked on N state st and walked over to the capitol. I plan on parking on either N State St or one of the streets next to it. We can plan to meet up on the park st side of the capitol building by one of the statutes.
Itโs not required and there will be a lot of people with out them, but i recommend wearing a mask of some sort. The news will be watching and we wanna be smart about this from a PR standpoint. Also it helps protect your identity. Up to you tho if you wanna wear one or not.
The rally is from 12-2 at the capitol building. Iโll be in full gear open carrying and I know there will be other people open carrying outside this group. Feel free to kit up if you want. Just be smart and be safe. I donโt expect this to be like Michigan, but just donโt be stupid. Iโll see you guys there
Yeah it looks like theyโre trying to get in touch with the guy who requested qrf. Trying to get in touch out of the server so we donโt compromise this one
