We need our own island

Congrats people we have reached 100 posts.

we should add a delegislative branch

lol... to abolish laws made by the government?? We wouldn't need it, because we wouldn't have those unconstitutional laws to begin with...

 

[skinnyskittles1989]

yeah, passing an unconstitutional law should be treason and therefore demand capital punishment

 

[LibertiORDeth]

If anybody has suggestions for a place to start, (in international waters, self sustaining, at least 500 acres) please post them.

I take this idea very seriously. I want to see some more brainstorming and see some support and we can push this on a lot of websites.

Maybe just exile...

Once we get a sub forum on here, we can start creating our own forum and website.

haha yeah that'll work too

bump for Operation: Liberty Island.

have any of you ever read any Murray Rothbard?

I've only had the good fortune to read some articles and snippets. I'm sure you'll find a shitload of people around here and other RP sites that will tell you 'fuck yeah!'

Could we all stick to my original thread until one of them gets pinned? We are fragmenting the ideas and the effort with these competing threads. It is titled: "We need our own state"

Plus, I am on dialup and can't monitor all these threads and keep up with all of my other daily on-line duties (I run website on dialup too...lol...)

thanks!

his layout of a capitalist, stateless society would make an interesting experiment

I'm sorry, I wouldn't support capital punishment for making unconstitutional laws, only for capital crimes, Rape someone, you get raped back... with a broom handle... murder someone, you die too... no lengthy prison terms for capital crime... you get your due process, and that's about it... If you're found guilty, you get one chance to appeal... if you're found guilty again, you go to the chair... no waiting... no news about it... it just happens.

Steve, you know this idea is superior. What we need is a MOD TO MAKE A SECTION FOR THESE IDEAS COMBINED!!! I'm reporting my post to make it happen.

The judicial system would need a special grand jury with exclusive jurisdiction to grant aggrieved parties the right to sue judges and other officials who claim judicial immunity.

 

[SteveMartin]

Well, we've been talking about islands a lot on the main thread. I don't care which one gets pinned, but we need to stop dividing the effort, or we may lose something very important.

Well I currently live on an island. I moved my family here to get away from the encroaching fascism of America. That and acclimate us to living in a tropical, jungle, third world environment. (it takes more acclimating than you'd think).

We have been looking at purchasing an island in the PI group for the last decade or so. We came close on a coupla occasions. But the deals fell through because of title issues and fear.

The fear part is from piracy more than anything. Yes there are still pirates on the oceans. They use speed boats and ak's not schooners and swords. Being on an island means you are isolated and a target.

I've yet to solve that problem but I'm working on it.


My criteria has been large enough for agriculture. Aqua-culture is my current study item. Placing fish ponds with tilapia up hill from your fields. Let the nitrogen rich "fish-water" and gravity do the hard part of farming for you.

Fresh water source (small scale hydro electric). I've actually built two of these as a test using an old generator with a water wheel and a small tractor transmission.

Mountain or very large hill. (gotta have something to hide behind when cyclones come through). Basements on islands don't work very well.

Close enough to civilization to get materials and parts. Far enough to be private.

I've been doing lots of research on alternate energy. My facility currently gets 10% of its power from solar.

We are in the beginning stages of installing 3 X 10Kw Bergey wind turbines.

I've got detailed plans on how to build bio-digesters for a methane fuel source. Easy to convert small engines to run off of methane. Most people don't know but living in a tropical environment you have ton's of vegetable waste that gathers up. You have to deal with that stuff or it becomes a breeding ground for mosquitoes. They carry Dengue fever. You REALLY don't want to contract that. I know.

Who ever is keeping a list of serious persons put my name on that list.

I could offer 10+ years of on island experience in electrics/electronics/agriculture/construction. Plus I am a combat veteran with all the usual training.

Aquaculture is how you feed 1000 people per acre in a greenhouse.... in Wisconsin... in Winter.... per day.... imagine what we could grow on open acreage where the temperature never gets below 70 degrees F...

1000 people per acre in a greenhouse per day?

won't happen.... Show me the facts.
