The Practical Woodsman
Education • Travel • Preparedness
The Practical Woodsman is a way to share love of the wilderness, as well as my observations, thinking, and approach to what folks today are calling 'bushcraft' and 'survival'. The focus is on what is practical, as well as pointing out certain things being demonstrated by 'bushcrafters' today that are not practical at all.

What sorts of posts are allowed?

This is to answer an email I received recently about what sorts of posts are allowed on the group. The message goes like this: “ Is it ok to share videos from other creators for critique and discussion? What is the criteria for things we should or shouldn't share. Do you want us to keep it topical or is it ok to talk about other things? I just don't want to cause any trouble or make any mistakes.”

My attitude is it’s better to ask forgiveness than permission. I picked this platform so that folks could enjoy complete free speech - meaning anything that’s legal to talk about. I was so sick and tired of the major platforms and their disgusting censorship actions. I’m a 50-year-old red-blooded American man. It is absolutely, indisputably unacceptable for a bunch of pansy computer nerds out there deciding what I’m allowed to talk about or not talk about. I bet a lot of you feel that way, too.

So go ahead and talk about and share anything you want here in our group. As long as it’s legal to discuss and you’re not spamming the place up, I’ll be ok with it. I don’t have to agree with it, but I support your inherent right to talk about whatever you want to talk about.

I brought my Baofeng to work since weather is hitting and I can say this county is a demo derby when freezing rain hits.
