They have purchased 50 acres of land in Western Texas for Ron Paul supporters only. Apparently this “community” will be self sufficient as to “not be forced to do or pay for other people’s life styles you may not agree with.”…

Very astute.

However Fair Housing does not cover just race or color, nationality, gender, religion and the disabled. Other ways of violation are discrimination by “groups” or “preferences for group characteristic”. I’d say that political bent may be covered in that. Somehow I doubt that a home advertised as located in “a Republican or Democrat” community is going to escape the feds eyes. But I could be wrong.

Most ironic is they tout themselves as “freedom and liberty lovers”. Then turn around and show intolerance for anyone not sharing their own perceived ideals. uh huh…. so much for freedom and liberty for others, I guess.

One has to wonder what happens when they sell shares to someone who is kindred in their biased view of liberty, then changes their mind a year or so later? Do they have bylaws that allow them to indiscriminately give them the boot out of the community?

Yep… think they are digging themselves into a legal grave.

“Do you just want to get away from reality and be with your fellow man that just doesn’t get how the real world works. Well, I have a place for you. Yew you an go to Paulville and live with fellow Pualbots. The bad thing is you will not be able to see your fellow man and berate him about your God and Saviour Ron Paul, but you can still spam online polls and spam fellow bloggers.”

Then they will not be out in public harassing everyone, like they did to Guilianin in Seattle, and everyone elese that does not believe in their Saviour Ro Paul.

Yes the Paulbots are “kooks” and so is Ron Paul.

I’m pretty sure that’s a photo of an earlier effort, when the campaign was still active – if I’m identifying it correctly that’s a NYC rooftop which was visible/legible to planes landing at the airport. So it’s color for this story but not directly relevant to the Paulville effort.

this Jonestown-style venture

Provided link doesn’t mention Jonestown? Or tie this thing to it in any way? Though I guess another failed South American commune does get a couple of lines…

Anyway, self-selected communities are a long-standing feature of the American landscape (Shakers, Oneida, the Harmonists, and so on, not to mention the followers of the Baghwan Sree Rajneesh in modern times….). I don’t think much of this particular one, not least because the name (’Paulville’) suggests more a cult of personality than a truly ideological effort. For those who are focused more on political change and less on a retreat from the world of other people there is already the Free State Project, which seems to me a more promising approach.

There’s a compound out there that may come on the market pretty soon. Also, there’s a fixer-upper in Waco they could probably get a sweet deal on.

Just keep ‘em out of my part of Texas.

Strategy:

ChristianExodus.org… intends to move thousands of Christian constitutionalists to the sovereign state of South Carolina in multiple phases of 12,000. Our research team will choose specific state legislative districts and encourage our members to relocate to them. Further details can be found on our Plan of Action page.

Interests of minority in South Carolina:

If secession is effected in South Carolina, there will be a minority of unionists in the state. The under girding principle in a representative form of government is that majority rules. It then becomes the responsibility of the minority to relocate or change the policies of the state through the ballot box. It would be a great injustice to suggest that the preference of the minority ought to prevail over that of the majority.
