A libertarian country has formed right in the heart of America!

[Redcard]

It's so successful that the Lakota Republic has run into a massive crime problem in which women are being raped by white men.. and nothing is being done about it through lack of law enforcement and the inability of the federal government to get involved immediately.

Sounds good to me.

Does anyone know how the RoL is progressing? News seems to be slow in arriving outside the western Lakotah area.

I'm on the RoL mailing list. Other than occasional rambling videos by Russell Means I don't see much happening.

The RoL has some major obstacles. Native American culture is not very property rights friendly and some reservations are in a culture crisis. Check out the documentary Vanguard did about rape on the reservation. You will not walk away with warm fuzzy feelings after watching it.

^ That's unfortunate. I was really looking to those guys to lead the way for the rest of us. I don't think they know it yet, but if the Native tribes can preserve their culture of self-sufficiency and living off of the land even after TSHTF, they'll probably end up running this whole country again, both economically and politically, just as they did before Europeans settled it.

The reason nothing happened was because this was just an idea. There hasn't been much support for the idea so nothing happened.

It sounds interesting, but I think the Free State West project is more practical at this time.
