And so who made you leader, to hand down rules, of the 3?
Not that they are bad or wrong but I'm asking.

I read it but there again it doesn't answer the question.
This is just some things someone put together. Who put them together? Because a lot of catch phrases used could have been used as well. Just like the statement where 3% won't tolerate new gun laws. Where was that in the original 3? This is an idea of someone recently not back then. Who is the someone and why do they get to choose for the others?
It skips from the war with the british to the battle between the north and south which has nothing to do with 3%ers. One of the rules is derived from this and again has nothing to do with 3%. So who made this choice?

You're new here, right? Research Sipsey Street Irregulars and Mike Vanderboegh [RIP], considered the father of the modern III Percent movement. You will find your answers.

Thanks Sheepdog for the straight answer. It seems many have rules and claim this and that. I'm just trying to figure it all out. I had never even heard of this group till Mr. Vanderboegh died recently. New here but not new to 3%.
I'm looking at things and coming to my own conclusions.

The Declaration of Independence was something "Someone just put together" Anon..... It's not that it was put together by a guy, it's that the majority of us agree with what that guy "put together". Mike wasn't Thomas Jefferson, but he didn't need to be to codify the principles of "III%". He just did his homework and had genuine clarity when he put pen to paper.
