My name is Matt Navarro
I'm originally from Chicago.
Moved out to Colorado (Mountains) last summer.
History:
Enlisted in the Marine Corps & served 4 years active duty, right out of H.S.
Returned to Chicago.
Spent 14 years in the Service Industry, the last 5 of which, I was a GM/Co-Owner of a great family operated restaurant/lounge (Cuatro).
During this time is when I came across Ron Paul (2007) leading up to the election.
Watching the Debate videos is what became the defining moment.
Learned that there is such a thing as liberty…
And I have been a avid student since.
Was able to attend the "Ron Paul Revolution March" in DC.
As well as the "Counter Convention" in Minneapolis.
It became a realization that I did not want to continue living my life amid the daily evils of corrupt Alderman, racist City officials …
Attorney's that back stabbed, Police Deputy Chiefs that discouraged business…with threats etc…
And not to mention I was the one breaking the law for trying to protect myself, the business & my home!!
Colorado is beautiful!!
I really didn't plan on moving… or at least not so soon…
Work situation has gone south.
Been working a indoor farm, learned to grow MMJ legally for a company that has since downsized. (Current FED Pressure & overextended are the main reasons)
My goal it to move to Keene area, get back into the service industry to make some decent $ to cover cost of living…
As well as - I want to start up a "Aquaponics Business" in due time.
I learned about Keene, from the unique Youtube videos, covering court cases, Open Carry Public Awareness Campaigns & while learning about RP.
Ultimately, I want to be self-sustaining, & I want nothing more than to start a family and to share in experiences - with like-minded individuals!
Its not a set deal that I can the move… currently selling my Jeep, Professional Club Speakers for the revenue to make it happen.
Wish me luck!
Matt

Does a bear… never mind.
Tammany Hall NYC Machine Politics survives to this day… in Chicago.
So many hands-outstretched…to be padded…just because its the way it is.
Welcome! Great intro.
