If you all haven't figured it out yet, in this country there is a gradual decline in our freedoms. If we decided to take action as our constitution says and overthrow the government that is not working and replace it with a new one that will work ya think people like George W. Bush is going to stand by and let that happen? No of course not, Look at 9/11 and if you think I am just coming up with fiction here it is true. On 9/11/2001, several things i have learned since then from friends of mine who survived that day and several friends of mine who died that day that i spoke with as their last conversations indicated to me that they felt our own government was responsible for 9/11. Why? well for starters I have a friend of mine who did not go to work in the WTC that day who said the weekend before 9/11 there were maintenance workers in both towers that he had never seen before. Since the towers fell several well respected demolitions experts have noted that the way the towers fell was pretty well in line with a CONTROLLED demolition. If indeed that is how the towers fell then that means that whoever was in the towers on 9/9/2001 and 9/10/2001 were behind the towers falling. Secondly, the supposed plan that hit the pentagon(if you look close enough on the videos of whatever struck the pentagon which appears to look like a missile), that plane supposed to have flown over the white house, capitol and pentagon twice before crashing into the pentagon. To me that dont make sense where was our military that day?

Questions needing answered:
6 capitals are known: Sacramento, Cheyene, San Antonio, Montgomery, Columbus, and Albany.
Of the two, Cheyene and San Antonio are probably controlled by surviving units of the US Military and are most likely Military dictatorships. The Cheyene faction probably launched the missles in Federal Response. I would think that the origin of the EMP bomb wouldn't be with one of the factions considering that destroying every electronic device would make re-establishing control more difficult.
Albany is the probable location of the Undersecretary of Homeland Security and is probably the most legitimate clamant to the Presidency. In Military terms, they are known as the NCA or National Command Authority. Our Military factions are most likely waiting it out to see which politican make the best case before they ally themselves with whoever. Constitutionally, all of the successors were most likely killed in the DC blast, but the NCA is under statute and law and not the Constitution.
Our various Senators who are claiming the Presidency are probably claiming it under the principle of President Pro tempore of the Senate, being the oldest member of the Senate. Who controlls what?
Also, how much area do these various factions effectively control? Do claims overlap, or are they like Jericho, only controling an area maybe 20-30 miles around the town? It would be nice to see a map.
The most important thing, how much military effectiveness do these factions have? Have they threatened each other or are they fighting? I would think they are concentrating on survival in this initial stage. After the winter, and the starvation that follows it, then we will see what will happen.
Another important thing - Is the leader of one of the factions the actual perpertrator of the whole operation? Is Ravenwood a facilitator, hired to do the operation? Or is the head of Ravenwood heading one of the factions or is he controlled by Ravenwood?
Post away!

Okay Sarah(Mystery Woman) appears to have been kidnapped(just before the bombs went off), but if "YOU" KNEW Rob and wanted him to "deliver the bomb" would you wear a mask? Just tell him....even with Sarah as a hostage. Rob is already part of your plot, though "YOU" found him out as a double agent, what good does it do to wear a mask? He knows YOU! It doesn't matter...unless YOU must be someone Rob doesn't suspect as a terrorist, someone he knows as part of another group. Perhaps with Sarah showing up at Jericho, she is perhaps standing in for "See you soon" or has she really escaped? Mystery is right...she could be on either side( the bomb strikers or the bomb hijackers) right now!

Look. Any conspiracy could find adherents within the military, FBI, CIA, etc. I floated the Racist Survivalist theory. Anybody catch Pat Buchanan during his flurry of appearances a couple of months back to promote his latest book? He was bewailing the projected statistic that by 2050, America would only be 50% Caucasian. His diatribe seemed aimed at the tsunami of the undocumented and he repeatedly stated that America was founded by White Europeans and should retain a predominantly White European culture. He said we were absorbing people he wasn't sure would or could be absorbed culturally here. I sat openmouthed watching him on all the cable news nets because I just couldn't believe he said this. If you take out the population hubs, you take out much of the non-white population, leaving rural enclaves like Jericho, where everyone has intergenerational roots and knows everyone else in town. Suburban bedroom communities where people moved "up" demographically and only know those in their own neighborhoods would not survive. I'm talking, in the case of NY as a for-instance, where people moved farther and farther north from places like the Bronx, Queens, and lower Westchester to where they could afford a home. They are not agrarian, work for a living, and would be unable to grow food to survive. I don' think our government as a whole would do this but perhaps adherents in government with Pat Buchanan's mindset would help.

Yeah, but you would be ruling a dungheap. Right now, we are the reigning power of the world. Like they told me in polysci class, those in power will do everything possible to REMAIN in power. The official US government, like all bureaucracies, will preserve itself and the jobs of those working for it FIRST. Remember, every government agency is not some dark entity with a singular, evil mind, it's comprised of government employees. Their job: keep the taxes coming so they can pay their mortgages and send their kids to college. I can see racist, off-the-hook adherents participating in a plot but they would be participating as individuals. The government has no motive to commit hari-kari on itself. It would take YEARS to reestablish any kind of federal or state oversight over towns like Jericho. They would be isolated, self-contained entitiies UNABLE to be policed. This means that existing law might or MIGHT NOT remain in place. What is to prevent an isolated community from ruling and policing itself in any way it chose, including shooting outsiders and other forms of vigilante justice designed to preserve the property rights of those with guns? In all likelihood, the monetary system would go down, too. How would the government collect taxes? Bushels of corn?

Gracie is the rule and not the exception! So is Gray. In a world without FEMA, don't straggle up to ANYBODY irradiated. You will get a quick merciful trip to Heaven at the hands of somebody's shotgun. People will be bent on preserving and protecting whatever resources they have or getting yours if they don't. In the real world, the lake survivors would have been massacred if they approached a cohesive town with resources. I'm not advocating this stance--I just know human nature. Tell me I'm wrong, somebody . . .
