Normal American: Review of Prairie Fire: Guidebook For Surviving Civil War 2

Originally posted on Normal American. -NCS

There are .50 BMGs mounted on rust-pocked Dodge pickups that patrol the sere, endless rangeland of West Texas. There are adobe walls formed from the hardpan Texas dirt, in the style of Afghan qalats, protecting ranches from Midland to El Paso.

There are bodies of blue-haired, gender-confused commies, in various stages of putrefaction, adorning telephone poles along route 285. “Smashing Fascism Is My Cardio” and “Burn the Deplorables” T-shirts remain faintly legible despite the unrelenting sun and West Texas haboob winds. The turkey vultures have left little else.

If this is what you think might happen, Clay Martin has the book for you. It’s called Prairie Fire: Guidebook For Surviving Civil War 2.

A library of survive-the-coming-collapse books has been published. They have titles like Prepper’s Long-Term Survival Guide, How to Survive The End Of The World As We Know It, and The Civil Defense Manual. In this era of self-publishing, one may be forgiven for thinking there are more survival guides than people to read them.

The principle is sound. Be prepared for disasters. Fr. Z, a Catholic prepping-priest, reminds us: “You simply must make plans along these lines, especially if you are responsible for the well-being of others.” Self defense is a “grave duty.”

But books written a decade ago when there was a flurry of interest in EMP attacks may not be relevant when street commies with Molotovs show up because you’re a white guy who made the mistake of flying an American flag. Everyone knows Old Glory means you’re a racist in need of some vigorous reeducation. Your wife and children will be removed from society to become laborers on the solar plantations.

Self-publishing means books can be timely. Martin, a former Green Beret and “career military dude,” finished writing Prairie Fire in August. Not much has changed. We still don’t know for sure who will take the oath of office in January, God willing and kraken permitting.

Prairie Fire summarizes America’s homegrown cultural revolution kicked off by street commies and their inner-city window smashers:

This is actually dangerous—because it is working. They are gaining ground and terrorizing middle America without ever having to step foot in it. The optics look really bad and that is demoralizing to our fence-sitters. This is an example of 4th Generation Warfare and it stands just as much chance of overthrowing our government if left unchecked as a shooting war would.

Prairie Fire reminds us the insurgencies and color revolutions of 4th Generation and 5th Generation warfare have limits. 3rd Generation warfare can win given sufficient resolve.

Mobs of unmarried, unhappy, gender management graduates are unlikely to prevail against Americans familiar with the principles of combined arms and fire and maneuver. “They crumble like a sandcastle in a tsunami if they go up against 3rd Gen warfare conducted by people that just don’t give a fuck… 4th and 5th Gen warfare loses its teeth if you decide not to care about public opinion or U.N. binding resolutions.”

The author, Clay Martin, calls his book a “roadmap for how Red counties can survive a Civil War that the Blue counties seem so desperate to start.” Scenarios include Blue Team states seceding after a Trump win, and Red Team states seceding after a Biden win.

Of course only a conspiracy theorist would argue that Trump won on election night, and then Blue Team “found” enough mail-in votes to reverse it. Intimating such a thing would displease our social media overseers and be treasonous to boot. Robert De Niro reminds us that the wind farms need indentured fieldhands.

Prairie Fire suggests the Troubles will arrive in three waves. Phase 1 is normal Americans relocating from Democrat-run cities. This is approximately where we are today. It happens when the street commies’ arson brigades get too rambunctious while the police find somewhere else to be. In our vibrant new era, Mogadishu on the Mississippi is a fiery place at night.

Phase 2 will be marked by a flood of refugees. There may be raids. There may be roving patrols. But the rule of law will not vanish completely.

Things get sporty in Phase 3. This is New York and California attempting to secede. Or: “Oregon sending its National Guard armored regiment over to Idaho to force Idaho’s Electoral College electors to certify a certain way and Idaho greeting them at the border with TOW missiles and A-10s.” The U.S. military is an “absolute wild card.” West Point’s commie infiltration and Obama’s military purge may prove more than symbolic.

Prairie Fire is dedicated to Kyle Rittenhouse, “Hero of Kenosha, Defender of the Realm.” Compare to Black Rifle Coffee CEO Evan Hafer, who is distancing himself from the Kenosha kid while donating to Democrat politicians trying to ban black rifles. It would be impolitic to suggest the “black rifle” line might be more sloganeering to sell a run-of-the-mill product than a principled commitment to Americans’ right of self defense.

Perhaps the republic will stumble on without any Troubles, despite the best efforts of anti-constitutionalist agitators. Wealthy nations tend not to devolve into hot civil wars.

On the other hand, we must not underestimate the left’s desire to punish the deplorables for being overly white, overly male, overly straight, overly devout, and overly conservative. Prairie Fire is insurance against this possibility. The telephone poles dotting the creosote bushes and catclaw mesquite of West Texas aren’t going to decorate themselves.

    ^This. Rules are for losers.

      There’s no doubt Johnny P our side has played by the rules. Things like careers, family, faith, and decency have kept us in check. The hardcore left has no guardrails. They will stop at nothing and the author is wise to point out we should not underestimate their wanting to punish us.

      JP:

      I 110% agree with your assessment!

      Virginia called for Xiden & President in Waiting, with only 1% of vote in was a SHOCK. Wife nearly gagged on her high octane night cap. I supported with $$$ Nick Freitas and Gade. Nick was SCREWED with the 30,000 sudden bump for Spanberger in early AM. And Gade lost…Riiiight !

      I take it you are behind enemy lines in a nearby, northern state. January 22 we may ALL be behind “Hate America” lines. It makes me ill in a manner I cannot explain. And I thought Jane Fonda was nauseating enough!!

      The next few months are going to be…well..I have no idea.

      As for Black Rifle, I stopped it last summer. I think you can just drop the Rifle part of the name. I buy what is on sale.

      Salute to all, 73

      • NC Scout December 7, 2020 at 14:52

        Buy Mayorga and Cafe Bustelo. Both are better, far cheaper, and don’t mask a shitty coffee with “SUPPORT THE TROOPS!”

        • 71M December 7, 2020 at 23:45

          NCS – thanks for that coffee tip. Don’t recognize the brands as being available at local Kroger’s. Will search deeper as I’m always loving a good cup, or two or three.

          • NC Scout December 8, 2020 at 07:53

            Cafe Bustelo definitely should be at Kroger. Mayorga might be a little harder to find (unless you’ve got a Costco). But they’re both excellent and blow BRC out of the water.

      • Johnny Paratrooper December 7, 2020 at 17:03

        I feel you. I saw like ten Biden signs in MD. And Trump signs are literally everywhere. But somehow Biden wins after the BLM staff rocking Hammer and Sickles on their shoulders takes my ballot and scans it in a device that simply says “You Voted”. Then some random guy is like “Congrats! Here is a sticker made in China”.

        A dollar Cheeseburger from McDonald’s comes with a recipe that could be used as evidence in a court of law if you needed an alibi. It includes Date, Time, Location, Price, Who took your Order and a QR code for more deals. Plus ten other metrics.

        Voting?

        Nothing. A sticker that says ‘I Voted” and a website that says “You Voted”.
        WTF? We are literally retarded and deserve this.

        • boss21 December 7, 2020 at 21:58

          Yep, the old Spotlight newspaper (now American Free Press ) were hammering on the Diebold (owned by Carlyle Group) voting machines since the nineties. Commies haven’t won fair and square since Carter.

        • 71M December 7, 2020 at 23:53

          JP – That is true my Man! Noticed that my car wash receipt today had tons of transaction/contact/selection info on it. All info was clearly legible.

          I put in a Jeep Wrangler and that’s what came out, a Wrangler. Not a worn out Yugo!!

  2. James December 7, 2020 at 08:15

    I have said it before and will say it again.

    When the troubles end,the country and it’s citizens back on a good track please remember to remove the skulls from your fence posts,tis just scaring the kids for no good reason,thanks.

    Transgender does not equate with communist or even left-wing. You might exclude valuable, (otherwise) like-minded people if you make this assumption. I share the majority of views and have an interest in many of the same skills discussed here. I’m also not terribly concerned with what pronoun I’m addressed with. Keep in mind that transgender people have a disproportionately high (compared to general population averages) representation in the military for not well-understood reasons. i feel ‘gender-related’ issues have been used as yet another wedge issue in the ‘ elites’ ‘ efforts to divide-and-conquer the American public. These issues rank far below in importance to those of common interest to all Americans. A thinly-veiled war is now being waged against the American people and our sovereignty and I am with you, for better or worse

    • wwes December 7, 2020 at 11:50

      “Transgender” may not necessarily equate to communist or left wing in all cases, but it does indicate mental instability. Just because someone doesn’t want to “identify” as what their body says they are doesn’t mean that it’s true, and it takes some level of mental instability to believe that in their own mind. I can walk around and say I identify as an Apache helicopter if I want to, but only a person with mental issues would believe it. I don’t want to organize with folks who aren’t completely mentally stable. And I’m not just taking about “transgender” but rather any kind of mental issues. I know people who I pretty much agree with 100% on everything we talk about, but that I would never consider working with because they’re not mentally stable. Sometimes it’s not their fault, sometimes it is cause by them due to chemical addictions. Either way, I don’t want them watching my back.

      Also, I’m a born again Christian, and I believe what’s in the Bible. God created man and woman, it is written about as plainly as can be, and that is enough for me to know where I stand on the issue. It doesn’t mean that I will treat someone poorly because of their views, but I will not be a part of what they’re doing, and that goes for the whole LGBTQ-whatever spectrum in my eyes.

      Just my personal take on the issue, for what it’s worth.

      • kelly December 7, 2020 at 12:20

        Many transgender people in the U.S. Military already are watching each others’ backs. I believe the Israeli military openly permitted gay and transgender service (along with most other western/allied militaries) for a while now. A greater conflict can and should make strange bedfellows out of a people. Be wary of thinking one even knows the definition of the term ‘transgender’ for it has many different levels of meaning culturally, socially, politically, biologically, and to each individual according to their beliefs. Transgenderism has a long accepted place in some non-Western cultures (the hijra in India, for instance). It may simply mean someone wishes to embrace some behavioral traits of the opposite sex without shame, or possibly others actually have genetic differences that modify their sensitivity to endogenous hormones (for an edge case, look at Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome (AIS), where a genetic male can look even more feminine than most women because of a lack of androgen receptors). You could even try to argue that too rigid an insistence on stereotypically western notions of masculinity are a source of mental instability in some. Believe it or not, I actually don’t like arguing this topic as I think the other topics discussed here are more important and interesting. It’s an unavoidable issue for me, however, because I have feminine features and a very deep voice that clashes. I hope we’ll all take a stand for the Golden Rule and our fast eroding liberty. Good luck to you and yours!

          Israel’s military lost 1,000 soldiers in the 2006 Lebanon War. A gay female officer literally marched 1,000 men into IEDs, snipers, and KNOWN enemy artillery ranges. It was a freaking DISASTER. RIP to those brave men. But they got what they asked for.
          Israeli’s military is really broken and messed up. No-one wants to serve in it. The local IDF recruiter wouldn’t even return my emails or calls because they know what they are. They are FULL of problems. Lots of AWOL. Their Cavalry and Air Force is the only thing keeping Israel alive.

          I worked at a bar that had a Trans and Gays night every week. They are ALL mentally ill alcoholic communists. None of them could ever remember my name. And all they did was smoke crack, meth, and snort pills and have sex in the bathroom. They also steal a lot. A disturbing number of them are social workers and teachers.

          Literally every single one had a Hammer and Sickle tattoo and/or T-shirt.

          Stonetoss has a comic strip were trans-soldiers take 41% casualties before even engaging the enemy. As in 41 out of 100…
          Or 82 suicides per infantry line company every three years.
          Best of luck surviving fantasy land. I’ll be over here in reality.

          Also, It’s not natural. They are created by tragic sexual abuse experiences. That’s why all the mental health exams ask repeatedly. Some of the tests ask the same questions 500 times. When I was growing up, I lived in a poor neighborhood full of alcoholic trans and gays. They stopped flirting with me when I hit puberty. Those people aren’t right. It’s just that simple. The Bible warns us about Catamites(Pedos) and Sodomites(Homos). The lesson in the Bible is they cannot be helped, and destroy themselves while their own cities burn and consume themselves.

          Sound familiar? You just watched 800 riots this summer while men and women dressed in drag flew rainbow flags burning their own cities…

        • Randolph Scott December 7, 2020 at 19:46

          I can’t and won ‘t support anything you have said. Wwes and Johnny laid it all out really well.
          1)IDGAF what you call yourself, you are what your body says, period. Oh you probably have one each month and it should give you a clue.
          2)IDGAF about these homo/screwed up fweelings.
          3)The Israeli Army is a real POS at this time in history and they did it to themselves. It is definitely not something to hang your bra upon.

          I wish the people that you think are special to go ahead and join the Blue Team.

      • kelly December 7, 2020 at 12:41

        Agree, the LGBTQ+ acronym becomes ever more unwieldy and silly. Recite the whole alphabet and include everyone…

      • Coop Willis December 7, 2020 at 15:57

        Your response is simple and easy to understand. I agree 100%. Well put.

  5. Romeo Clayborn December 7, 2020 at 11:19

    Very well presented except the part about rule of law is backwards. Rule of law is communism. Rule of CONSTITUTIONAL Law is what this Republic currently has. RoCL is the opposite of rol.

    I knew there was a reason NOT buy that coffee again. According to Linkedin, Evan spent some time training journalists how to protect themselves. I’d say their smarminess rubbed off, as supporting Demonrats means you have crossed the Rubicon. No, I don’t want to hear about “good” Demonrats. JFK was murdered in 1963.

    • NC Scout December 7, 2020 at 11:53

      Yeah I wouldn’t support them anymore.

    • Reluctant Millennial December 7, 2020 at 15:30

      I’ve been buying Black Rifle coffee for years, but noticed a marked decline in the quality (specifically taste) of their coffee about a year or so ago, right around the time their marketing ramped up and bags started appearing in Cabelas. I still would buy the occasional bag because I thought they supported our side, but will stop immediately. Get woke to broke.

      • NC Scout December 7, 2020 at 16:22

        They market their shit to range bunnies. Originally it was good, but about that same time I noticed it went downhill and quick.

        Donating to Gabbard should be the last straw and they damn well knew better.

    • Johnny Paratrooper December 7, 2020 at 16:32

      A company that posts $80 million the second year in business?
      Has shady friends? Never gets banned from the internet?
      Finances garbage movies? and shady celebrities?
      And all their parents are friends of Oliver North’s friends?
      Donate’s money to anti-gun Dems?
      Tattoo’d strippers in their videos?
      CIA operators and culture jamming?
      The words “Antifa is the enemy” cannot leave their lips?

      Hmm….. There’s a connection here somewhere… But what?

    I dont know how many people know this but you can rate each story on this site. a 5 star rating im guessing is the best. A one star would be the worst. That said I think more people should rate these stories. I try to remember to do so and I do rate some 5 and have rated a very few one or more. Just thought I would throw that out there. It probably helps others find good posted articles as well as lets the authors know what is liked and not liked so they know what types of articles to write. Keep up the good work here at American partisan guys.

  10. Reluctant Millennial December 7, 2020 at 15:37

    I can’t speak to this book, but I’m about halfway through Clay Martin’s other book, “Concrete Jungle.” Rather than just another list of “stuff to buy to survive TEOTWAWKI,” it has a more narrative format wherein the author explains how to form your own version of a Special Forces team by finding and connecting with people in your local AO who have skills that already align with the different SF team functions (weapons, comm, medical, etc). Definitely a nice departure from the usual prepper books. I’ll read this new one after I finish Concrete Jungle.

      It’s not about what an individual cares about, it’s about undermining and destroying a cohesive civilization.

    Regarding the statement about the Oregon NG forcing Idaho to comply, I had to laugh out loud. I lived in that Socialist Workers Paradise for over twelve years and taught at a private school. One of my students joined the Guard to get money for tuition to OSU. He told me there are not enough personnel to patrol and hold the city of Grants Pass, assuming everyone shows up for muster. I cannot even imagine them mounting up for a road march to Boise, as that is where all of the Idaho NG combat arms units stage out of. NG and USAR units are full of drones, slugs, and idiots just there to do the bare minimum and collect a paycheck. I saw it years ago.
    As far as Johnny Paratrooper’s observations about the LBGTABCXYZ deviates are concerned, he is spot on. Back in the late 70’s, I did a six-month stint as an undercover narc when I was a Peace Officer. The Faggot/Dyke community is the most unstable, violent, substance-abusing, self-hating bunch of people I have ever run into in my cop career. The real specter on today’s horizon is how they are co-opting clueless and vulnerable school-age boys and girls into their Godless, sinful lifestyle. This is done with the full cooperation of local politicians and school boards. Don’t worry about the ANTIFA mobs. Worry about your next door neighbor who teaches “Social Studies” at the local public school. GET YOUR KIDS/GRANDKIDS OUT OF PUBLIC SCHOOLS!!!
