Being able to live off the grid is becoming a dream for more and more Americans, especially as taxes and costs of living are constantly on the rise.
While many preppers are developing off the grid properties for use in the event of a bug out situation, there are several who are establishing off the grid homes to live in full-time.
This means that costs of living are cut down to a fraction of what they would be otherwise and overall independence goes through the roof.
Unfortunately, many government officials are starting to crack down on this new trend, fining those who elect not to provide their homes with power and water and even moving to evict and jail those who refuse to live the way everyone else lives. Tyler Truitt, a former Marine, is learning this the hard way.
Take a look at his story on the next page.

Yea they would the proud and poor
It’s America… “Land of the Free”? If government tries to remove you from your own property…well, sounds like an intruder and qualifies for “Stand your ground” laws.
And there’s a ton of people pissed off about the city bothering this veteran. Jerks!
I have it tried on my land before, and I’m still here. I paid for the land and its mine and no one has the right to take it away from me.
dumbest thing iv ever heard that not even legal tell them to eat$#%&!@*n die
Whatever happened to freedom
The offices of these traitors should be raided and those that are doing this should have their asses kicked in the Town Square.
Sickening how AmericaNs are treated in the “Land of the free”
If you think any land is yours you live in a fantasy world, the government can make any excuse to take it from you.
BUT PUT REFUGEES ON IT ! UNGRATEFUL , UNFAIR UNLAWFUL AUTHORITY !
I wish your comment was true Dave but the US has been putting people off their property now for years with no compansation the bill of rights is null and void all propaganda to make you think you have rights
Fck them…stay where you are…
This is not freedom.
We neeed to start fighting back. Let our so called government no we are tiered of them bulling us. Just like yhe farmers.
sounds like domestic terror to me!
Does this man living in a USA State have a Governor ot a communist bought off Governor . Stop this and arrest the federal agents for trespassing . Kick them out.
f**k em. Shoot em. Bury em.
I read this article awhile back .. It’s just government bullshit saying what he’s doing is illegal and if you live within city limits which they claim you have to pay for city regulated water and electricity
If it’s his land tell them to$#%&!@*off. and lets keep a eye on it just in case they try something.
Stay Strong! Don’t let them impose their will on you!
Good luck!
Maybe if he would have got a research grant this would have worked for him.just saying.jul
Freaking Corrupt Government has no business telling anyone how to live on their own property !!!
off the grid IS legal.. Many in my end of California do it.
WE THE PEOPLE are the government not the other way around. For the marine next time somebody tresspasses show them the folly of their ways. Three step program post signs no tresspassing then first time$#%&!@*them off property. 2nd time explain the dangers of going on unfamiliar land severe cut or break 3rd time show the business end of weapon
Apparently he’s not off the grid…

Instead of bothering a Vet who chooses to live off the Grid..Why dont ya worry bout the 50000 or so Vets. Who are homeless…You no good triflen POS Politicians….How bout that Muthafukkers
Big Brother wants CONTROL of every phase of our lives…!
We’ll more and more people are find my stsrtingbto get it
If he went to Alaska there wouldn’t be a problem why can’t he live the way that makes him happy and the way he wants besides most people probly don’t have his d skills besides let the guy do some healingcsnt you see that’s what he is doing it’s all a process this is his way of restoreingbhimseld now if the the guy is a felon or a real bad was then yhsts a different story
Could it be because his land is inside city limits? When you move outside of City Limits and just live in the county it changes a lot of regulations and rules and you are allowed much more freedoms.
But…. cold
Sorry dude. Sadly you are just renting it from the government.
Yes it’s cold as beck
We all are healing in some way Amanda the environment really helps us with that space we need
Or people just love the outdoors I do
Anyway have to vacume car nice smile
Veterans are treated as trash.
welcome to$#%&!@*America……we need to claim our country back!
WHY?
Is he living within any town/village/city limits – NO. He is on his own two acres outside of Huntsville and should live the way he wants without MONEY GRUBBING POLITICIANS trying to control his life. HE defended this country, now this country should respect his wishs as long as they do not harm anyone else.
When did being homeless become a better option than living in a home that ain’t up to code?
and that should prove how corrupt our government is
Bull s***!
Insane ,leave him alone
