The Riverton Project asks the question, "How much are you, as American citizens, willing to give up to stop the insanity and return to a world of safety?" "Would you be willing to give up your citizenship, your constitutional, legal and inalienable rights?" The answer, of course, is a resounding, "No!" But the citizens of Riverton, Ohio were not given that choice. These men and women woke up one morning to find their community had overnight become its own country within a country, within its borders, its own rules and regulations, its own rights and responsibilities and its own Guardian police force. It had become part of a frightening experiment to save the essence of the American dream by destroying everything that it had been founded upon. The frightening thing was that the experiment worked. This is the story of the men and women who lived it.
