DESCRIPTION: The Citadel Community will house between 3,500 and 7,000 patriotic American families who agree that being prepared for the emergencies of life and being proficient with the American icon of Liberty — the Rifle — are prudent measures. There will be no HOA. There will be no recycling police and no local ordinance enforcers from City Hall.

WHY APPLY FOR RESIDENCE: If living in an affordable, safe, well-prepared, patriotic community where your children will be educated in school rather than indoctrinated, consider the Citadel. Approved applicants receive a Lifetime Lease (paid off in only 30 years). No credit check. No background check. Zero down payment. Zero interest. Zero property taxes.

Agreement:
Two: Every able-bodied Patriot aged 13 and older governed by this Agreement shall annually demonstrate proficiency with the rifle of his/her choice by hitting a man-sized steel target at 100 yards with open sights at the Citadel range. Each Resident shall have 10 shots and must hit the target at least 7 times.

Three: Every able-bodied Patriot aged 13 and older governed by this Agreement shall annually demonstrate proficiency with a handgun of choice by hitting a man-sized steel target at 25 yards with open sights at the Citadel range. Each Resident shall have 10 shots and must hit the target at least 7 times.

Four: Every able-bodied Patriot of age within the Citadel will maintain one AR15 variant in 5.56mm NATO, at least 5 magazines and 1,000 rounds of ammunition. The responsibility for maintaining functional arms and ammunition levels for every member of the household shall fall to the head of household. Every able-bodied Patriot will be responsible for maintaining a Tactical Go Bag or Muster Kit to satisfy the Minuteman concept. Details TBD and posted elsewhere.

Five: Every household within the Citadel will remain stocked with sufficient food, water, and other preparedness essentials (to be detailed elsewhere) to sustain the needs for every member of the household for a duration of one year.

Six: Every able-bodied Patriot aged 13 and older shall pass a class every three years sponsored by the Citadel on basic emergency medical care; the courses shall focus on battlefield and wilderness environments.

Seven: Every child attending Citadel schools — with parental discretion for maturity — shall have as part of every semester's class curriculum basic marksmanship and firearms safety training leading to the proficiency test on the child's 13th birthday as a "Coming of Age" rite of passage (a parent may attend the classes or personally train the child if so desired). Children attending schools beyond the Citadel, or home-schooled, are required to meet the same proficiency standards at age 13.

Eight: All Patriots, who are of age and are not legally restricted from bearing firearms, shall agree to remain armed with a loaded sidearm whenever visiting the Citadel Town Center. Firearm shall be on-the-person and under the control of the Resident, not merely stored in a vehicle.

Nine: Each household will provide ONE able-bodied Patriot (aged 13 or older) who shall muster one Saturday per month for Martial/Support Training for neighborhood-level training & musters, as set forth by the Militia Commanders of the Community. No single Patriot shall be required to muster more than once per quarter. In the course of every calendar year every able-bodied Patriot and every full-time resident in each household must participate in at least three musters (one neighborhood-level and two full-scale). Part-time residents must participate, in good faith, to the best of their ability.

Ten: Twice annually a full-scale Town Defense Drill will be held for all households and all residents (once in winter weather & once in summer weather).

Eleven: The Town Militia will hold an award/recognition ceremony on April 19th each year to celebrate Patriot's Day.

Twelve: Violations of this Agreement will result in review by an arbitration panel consisting of Citadel Residents with appropriate and proportional disciplinary action taken. The most severe disciplinary action may include the loss of Lease and expulsion from the community.

Thirteen: All Citadel Citizens agree to accept dispute resolution by an arbitration panel in the event a problem that cannot be resolved between residents.

    The thing I'm wondering... all this talk about 'Freedom' and 'Liberty' and not having to recycle... yet, you MUST abide by the rules regarding keeping an AR-15 and demonstrating proficiency in its usage.
    Isn't that infringing on the freedom and liberty of the kid who turns 13? Where's the Liberty from joining the militia and the Freedom from doing what others telling you what you HAVE to do?

  • ummm... "there will be no HOA", "there will be no local ordinance officers from City Hall", but here's a list of rules (one would say, ordinances) that you must agree to to be a HomeOwner in this Association...

    the logo and motto at the top says it all... "Get an AR-15 before its too late!" :fp:

    Its not just guns, but people prey on insecurities. Im not saying gun owners are insecure, Im saying that due to the nature of the situation, sometimes its easy to sell ice to an Eskimo.)

    I also noticed that the Citidel is the concept of III Arms, the company in the ad.
    Maybe, the idea of MANDATORY ownership of at least one AR-15 for all residents 13 years of age and older will help boost arms sales for the III Arms company.

    OK... and who pays for things like sanitation, schools, fixing that big wall they're going to build around themselves?


    And there will be no Local Ordinances?

    So when some idiot offers to install new lights and instead he does a shoddy job and your house burns down in the middle of the night... Or your contractor is an idiot and he fucks up with the placement of a support beam... and there's no local ordinance for building codes... and your house falls down...

    Since there's no taxes to pay for a fire department, who comes and saves your ass?

    Why does this sound more like Lord Of The Flies?
  • I found this funny in the FAQ:
    Will You Be Doing Anything Illegal?

    Absolutely not. We will abide by all Constitutional federal and state laws. As a matter of fact, we will make it clear to anyone who wants to live in the Citadel Community that we expect everyone to obey the law. The Citadel is a community designed to withstand natural disasters such as Hurricanes Sandy and Katrina as well as man-made catastrophes such as an economic collapse.


    First of all, what the hell does natural disasters have to do with doing anything illegal, and more importantly, I hope a compound built in Idaho is safe from hurricanes, or they are doing something completely wrong.



    The "About" page includes just about every meaningless tea party buzzword that you can think of.

    That was something I wondered... because that would have to be one hellovaHurricane to hit Idaho.
    ...
    Also, what if there is a Federal Ban on AR-15 and high capacity clips? If you ARE abiding by Federal Law, then wouldn't you have to obey the law?

    "What are the American Dream Labs building towards? Glenn gave a look at the big picture that everything is building towards: Independence, USA!

    While Independence is very much a dream at this point, the proposed city-theme park hybrid would bring several of Glenn’s seemingly disconnected projects into one place. Media, live events, small business stores, educational projects, charity, entertainment, news, information, and technology R&D – all of these things would have a home in Independence. With the rest of the country and the world going away from the values of freedom, responsibility and truth, Independence would be a place built on the very foundation of those principles. A retreat from the world where entrepreneurs, artists, and creators could come to put their ideas to work. A place for families to bring their children to be inspired."

    This would be pretty hilarious if there weren't people out there who will gladly sign up. They may even need a Citadel II.

    The part that made me sick: The Town Militia will hold an award/recognition ceremony on April 19th each year to celebrate Patriot's Day. So the anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing (and end of the Branch Davidian standoff) is Patriot's Day.

    We all know that they've done this exact thing before.

    It was called Jonestown. And it didn't really end well for the townspeople who followed a crazed lunatic to the new Utopian society he wanted to create.
