III Percenters


​The​
III Percenters :


‘The Three Percenters - Original’ is a national organization made up of patriotic citizens who love their country, their freedoms, and their liberty. We are committed to standing against and exposing corruption and injustice. 

​First and foremost, we are NOT racists, NOR are we white supremacists. This organization is made up of patriots of all races, colors, creeds, religions, background, ethnicities, orientations, you name it... We invite ALL people to join us. Anyone who claims we are white supremacists or racists speaks out of pure ignorance. Patriotism is color blind.

We are NOT a militia... We are NOT anti-government. In fact, we are very pro-government, so long as the government abides by the Constitution, doesn't overstep its bounds, and remains “for the people and by the people”. Our goal is to utilize the failsafes put in place by our founders to rein in an overreaching government and push back against tyranny. We are working to preserve the intent of our government as designed. We do not intend to implement our own government. There is often a misconception that we are wanting to overthrow the government. This is simply not true and a false rumor to try and paint our movement as anti-government.

We do not seek to incite a revolution. However, we will defend ourselves when necessary. We are not here to create violence. Violence should always be a last resort and even then should only be defensive in nature.

HISTORY

In the mid-1700’s, the British colonies of North America had many reasons to be disgruntled with the British Empire and the ruling class in England. Recognizing that things would get worse before they got better, many amongst the people banded together to push an ideology they all shared. This ideology identified and acknowledged that every person has from birth certain rights. These are not granted by any authority other than their Creator. The limitation or denial of these rights is defined as tyranny and oppression. These bands of people worked together to peacefully resolve the abuses of their government, but recognized that peace was not a guaranteed solution.

Eventually, an idea was coined of having “Minutemen” available at a moment’s notice should the King’s tyranny show up in their town, on their streets, or at their door. These Minutemen would meet, train, and prepare to defend themselves, their family, and their townships from an ever encroaching empire. It is from these Minutemen where the 3% name originated. It is a rough estimate that only 3% of the colonists were actively fighting in the field against British forces at any given time. Today ...this 3% ...will be the last defense to protect the citizens of the United States if there ever comes a day when our government takes up arms against the American people.

3 PRINCIPLES OF THE THREE PERCENTERS

All Three Percenters must abide by the following principles. Anyone who cannot accept these principles as a self-imposed discipline are not welcome in this organization, nor should ever consider themselves a part of the Three Percent movement.

1. Moral Strength - Knowing what is right and wrong and acting accordingly. Being trustworthy, truthful, and holding high values and principles. Strength to stand up when something is morally wrong.

​2. Physical Readiness - Physical readiness is defined as the ability to meet the physical demands of any task in order to accomplish the objective at hand. There are some III%ers that have disabilities that prevent them from meeting physical demands and for these there is an exception.

​3. No First Use of Force - "Don't fire unless fired upon". We are not the aggressor nor antagonist. We are purely defensive and only as a last resort.

OUR GOAL

The goal... is to get patriots to network, prepare, and petition together on a local level. We intend to provide a framework and guidance that ‘The People’ can use to make positive change in restoring the founding principles of our Constitutional Republic. We plan to leverage incorporated fail-safes and laws to ensure success in preserving the Constitution as the supreme law of the land. 

From By-Laws (V.3.2)

OATH

We ask all Three Percenters to take and keep the following oath under any and all circumstances:
​

"I, _____, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same. ​I​ swear (or affirm) to uphold the three principles of a Three Percenter: have moral strength, be physically ready, and no first use of force.”

Any member who is prior or current military/law enforcement should always remember, reflect, and abide by the sworn oath they took. We also propose that these individuals who are current military and/or law enforcement take and keep the following oath from the Oath Keepers organization under any and all circumstances:

1. I will NOT obey orders to disarm the American people.
2. I will NOT obey orders to conduct illegal searches of the American people
3. I will NOT obey orders to detain American citizens as “unlawful enemy combatants” or to subject them to military tribunal.
4. I will NOT obey orders to impose unjustified martial law or a “state of emergency” on a state.
5. I will NOT obey orders to invade and subjugate any state that asserts its sovereignty.
6. I will NOT obey any order to blockade American cities and thus turning them into giant concentration camps/civilian war zones.
7. I will NOT obey any order to force American citizens into any form of detention camps under ANY pretext.
8. I will NOT obey orders to assist or support the use of any foreign troops on U.S. soil against the American people to “keep the
    peace” or to “maintain control."
9. I will NOT obey any orders to confiscate the property of the American people, including food and other essential supplies.
10. I will NOT obey any orders which infringe on the right of the people to free speech, to peaceably assemble, and to petition their
     government for a redress of grievances...


ORGANIZATIONAL FOCUS AREAS TRAINING AND EDUCATION

Members should seek to acquire the following basic skills, with the expectation of advancing and fine tuning your skills.

● Basic fundamentals of firearm safety (mandatory completion for new members)
● Marksmanship training (both pistol and rifle)
● Advanced tactics/shooting (upon completion of Basic Fundamentals of Firearm Safety and Marksmanship training)
● Entry level/advanced knowledge of Radio operations and Comms (recommend HAM licensing)
● Develop a physical fitness/physical preparedness plan (maintain awareness of personal limitations and personal improvement

● Basic First Aid/Advanced First Aid (develop advanced medical personnel/field medics). The American Red Cross has lots of info on these topics and even holds classes.
● Develop basic understanding of land navigation/GPS/Topographical maps and ability to use a compass

In addition to these skills, all members should know and understand the Constitution in its entirety, especially your rights and your limitations. It is highly recommended to study ​The Federalist Papers,​ which describe the context and intent of the Constitution and why each of the articles are important... all members should be familiar with Federal, State, and Local laws... It is expected that you defend ALL rights of ‘We The People’, regardless of Race/Religion/Creed. The hardest part about protecting freedom, is protecting the freedoms of those with which we do not agree...

POLITICAL ACTIVISM

Three Percenters have a voice, a very loud voice indeed, but that voice needs to be heard. However, if we do not take action, then our voice falls on deaf ears. The Constitution has been metaphorically shredded in many states, and our rights have become a mere shadow of what the Founding Fathers envisioned. We need to restore America to the Republic she once was and will become again with both effort and time.

Three Percenters never shoot first, so how can we work to take our country back peacefully?

Here are a few things you can do, to make a difference lawfully:

● Educate yourself on the Constitution. The entire document and all her amendments.
● Educate yourself on laws; current, past and future. Are there laws about to pass in your town that you are unaware of? Should they
   be passing without protest?
● Do not take someone’s word for what laws or executive actions/orders may be coming down - research for yourself.
● Ensure that you search credible sites in order to get the true text in that law. Search www.WhiteHouse.Gov​ and choose the section
   Presidential Actions to read text on any action/order the president takes.
● Think a law/action/order is unconstitutional? Then start a We The People petition at www.WhiteHouse.Gov/Petitions​. Work actively
   to get signatures and convince people why your cause matters to them.
● Actively participate in all elections that you have a voice in. Learn who your federal, state and local representatives are, and contact
   them regularly. What do they stand for and when is their term up?
● Know who is running for your next Sheriff, Mayor, Senator, etc. (Keep in mind your Sheriff is the supreme law of the land and has the
   power to kick the Feds out if [their] actions are unconstitutional.) Try attending meets they host so you can see for yourself what type
   of leader they will be within your community. Will these people represent your ideals?
● Protest and Counter-Protest; we are many in number and numbers speak loudly. If you see something happening in your community
   that is wrong, then use your constitutional rights to create and organize a rally for your cause, or a protest of your grievances. Invite,
   advertise, and share so you can have a show of force. Strength is in our numbers.
● Write your officials, call and email them with your thoughts. Don’t just let them know that you are upset, explain to them why you're
   upset, why it is unjust and immoral and how it affects those in your community. Don’t be afraid to meet them and discuss your
   grievances personally.
● March forward with an open mind but NEVER surrender. Fight to get your voice heard and fight for those who you vow to protect...

Part of being a member of a community, means contributing to it as a whole and knowing who we can count on when disaster strikes. We all have participated in assisting our community in one way or another; flood clean-up, sand-bagging, food donation and collection, tornado clean-up and even search and rescue. These are just a few ways we already contribute to our community. But does our community know that it is a Three Percenter who came to their aid in time of need? If not, they should be notified.

We must change the general public’s perspective on who Three Percenters are. However, we cannot force them to accept our ideals. Our actions speak louder than any words we speak. In order to show the community that they can count on Three Percenters, we must take action. We must show them who we really are.

We are expected to:

● Be a dependable member of our community. Make sure your neighbors know you, a Three Percenter, will watch out for them. Lead
   a neighborhood watch program.
● Support local law enforcement by letting them know Three Percenters support them in Constitutional service.
● Volunteer when your schedule permits - schools, places of worship, community centers; many ways to help your fellow Americans.
● Assist local authorities when appropriate; anything from sandbagging efforts and disaster relief, to search and rescue operations.
● Be the change you want to see. Practice what you preach...

Here are some things to remember when interacting with the public:

● Reference this guide and all PR broadcasts from Nationals to educate yourself on the best approach to these sometimes difficult questions. Talk to your State and Zone Leaders. Request a meeting with them or jump on call to clarify.
● Stand for the rights of all Americans; all races, all religions, all genders and creeds. There will be times we disagree with a value but if we are truly for the constitution then we stand for their rights as well.
● Dress appropriately. Wear clothes that are comfortable but that are clean and of the correct size. Dress for the occasion. Don’t wear full battle-rattle when going to Wal-Mart. Maybe you have a permit to carry, but how will you be perceived?
● Carry everyday and everywhere you legally can (follow all laws and permit requirements). Be conscious of your surroundings and respectful of others beliefs. Would conceal carry be a better option? Do you feel that open carrying an AR is the best choice to persuade folks who already dislike guns?
● Carry a properly holstered sidearm that is clean and in good condition. Make sure your holster works with your belt. Inspect your firearm and ammo regularly.
● Be vigilant but be approachable for open dialogue. Avoid petty confrontations. Be the bigger man/woman and choose when to end the conversation if you feel it’s going down the wrong path...
​
● Build a network of people who are like minded that can be called on when in need, with whom people are happy to answer a call for aid, and that can help rebuild after a disaster. A disaster shouldn’t be limited to a “revolution”. The people in our community today are the same people that will be in our community after a disaster. Disaster can be floods, storms, fires, earthquakes, or even a death in the community. Remember, if it is someone’s mindset that they will leave to go “fight a Revolution”, it is their community that will bear the responsibility of looking after those who don’t go, including their family. Make sure the community and family of the Three Percenter is as close knit as possible.

●  Prepare... for an emergency. In the event that a person or community needs to “answer the call for freedom”, they will not be scrambling at the last minute to obtain desperately needed supplies.

● Learn. Never stop learning. If taking a break from learning, teach. It may be learning/teaching the constitution, about politics, about marksmanship, about tactics, survival skills, woodworking, engineering, whatever. The point is, should a “revolution” or other catastrophic event ever happen... it will be those who know and are taught that will have to rebuild. There is no guarantee that Google, or Facebook, or Pinterest, or YouTube will be available after a catastrophe of that scale... without a way to preserve our work and dedication for future generations, then we really aren’t doing anything positive.

● Maintain the moral high ground. Letting our passion overcome our logical thought processes is detrimental to our goals and the way we are perceived... This doesn’t mean we can’t express ourselves or our 1st amendment rights. It means that as a Three Percenter we must hold ourselves to a standard. The last thing the movement can afford is for its members to be... promoting hate and violence towards the family, friends, neighbors, etc... It is possible to have our opinions without publicly endorsing violence towards people who were not involved in horrible acts... We must conduct ourselves with professionalism. Control our frustration, anger, rage, and never allow those who politically oppose us the satisfaction of defeating our control. We can lose an argument, we can lose political battles, we can lose legal battles, but we must never lose control. A loss of control on our part is ammunition for those who want to see us fail. And they will never let us forget it...

This organization... is intended to put everyone on the same path with a common goal of ensuring liberty, and a universally acceptable way of reclaiming it. We hope that through this, people can find unity from the disarray and purpose from the chaos. It starts with us and we must be willing to step onto common ground. Every position in this organization was created to support, aid, and assist you. We are here to serve you and to help you prepare and succeed. Together we can accomplish anything. Together we are one. We are Everywhere. We are The Three Percent.
