x 1000......As every citizen 13 and over is required to own an AR15 and 1000 rounds of ammo.

either jon stewart or colbert mentioned this project last week...

from their "Patriot 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.

personally i'm slightly in favor of this endeavor.  i'm all for concentrating the crazies.  let them kill each other.

I like the part where if you go into town you MUST be armed.  Don't leave your gun in your car.  It actually says that.

Could be a fascinating sociology experiment.

the map is quite insightful: an outer wall, an inner wall, AND internal walls to seal off sections/neighborhoods.  yup, this is a government stand-off waiting to happen.

and i love the description on their cost estimator:

"Every Citadel home will come with a 2,500 gallon water tank, a one year supply of food for either 1 or 2 adults, 1 or 2 AR15-variant rifles and 1,000 rounds of ammunition per rifle, a generator, a composting toilet, a vault, a protective Safe Room. If you are bringing more than 2 adults, additional ARs, ammunition and food will be added for a tiny fee. Remember, your home requires zero down payment, zero interest, no background check and no credit check... and your Lease is for Life."

Take out the guns and this is pretty much a hippy commune.
