No one knows what tshtf scenario will be and there is no way to predict it.

Re: 99% of Preppers are NOT PREPARED for a SHTF SCENARIO!
OP is right; most are not mentally prepared. I don't even pretend to be, but having read this book my eyes are open a bit wider.

I just posted a thread on the free download.

Beyond Collapse has a huge amount of 'what if' scenarios that are discussed in detail with alternative solutions that will enable you to either predetermine what you would do in a given situation or know when to change your course of action based on available information. Plus many great prepping concepts in detail with references.

The author of the 256 page book for sale on Amazon for $19.00+, T. Joseph Miller, is now giving away free downloads.

Check it out; download info is about halfway down the page.

No more anger.

When one realizes and has seen the pure love and joy that we are supposed to have as a reality- they tend to not care about fighting to the bitter end.

I am not a Christian- but I will not kill another in defence.
To me- that is the big taboo. Your own life is YOUR OWN LIFE. To be used or ended as you see fit- no one else.

But if a person professes to be a Christian?
They would not kill.
Period.

Why are you so attached to living a shit survivalist life when what is waiting for you is so glorious?

Geez...we all have been playing this game for eternity!

Remember- "It's Just a Ride"

So you see a mother and child being attacked by a larger predator.
Do you defend them?

If you defend them do you merely defend against the strikes or do you strike?

If you have to take the life of the predator to defend and preserve the lives of the weaker ones, do you?

Nothing glorious about it.
This is stark reality in many places around the world right now and it could be the scenario in many more places.

That will be the reality alright. Your right.

Some of us already have excaped the cities and live in remote locations and have a group organized that will come together when shit happens.

Yes there will be hard choices to be made when the time comes and in different situations.

One thing for sure though. I won't be checking myself out. Against the rules Pal.

As hard as it may get you got to go with the flow and do your best. It only hurts for a second. What will be will be.

Re: 99% of Preppers are NOT PREPARED for a SHTF SCENARIO!
This is for all of you preppers who like to think you are ready for when the SHTF.

So you think you're prepared for the worst, eh?

Got those seeds and BOB all ready?

Guns & Ammo? Check.

Stored food/water? Check.

Well guess what?

NONE of it will do you any good in a real SHTF scenario.

First-
Are you guys really sure you want to live in a world where you & your family are being hunted and killed like insects???


And don't give me that "I got my BOB and my water filter and my Boy Scout book" shit......cause in a true SHTF scenario the only possible way to survive is to be a part of a SERIOUSLY organized military stlye camp with heavy firepower and 24 hour perimeter guards, medical skills,mass storage of supplies and most importantly-

THE COLD HEARTED MIND OF A KILLER.

Because you'll have to murder those poor starving families that try to steal your shit or join your compound when you already don't have enough for yourselves.

And you don't want to use gunfire unless ABSOLUTELY necessary, because it draws attention to you and ammo is precious.

So are you ready to be covered in blood after cutting the throats of those poor fuckers just desperate for food????

THAT'S REALITY.

Hope you're not Christian- cause I don't think
"That's what Jesus would do". And a real Christian cannot justify murder by using the "protecting my family" excuse.

Have you ever watched anyone die from getting their throat cut?
Hope you can sleep with that image in your mind!

All you "preppers" who think you're all ready for the apocalypse are in for a big surprise.

You'll never survive buggin out with your family! As soon as anyone sees you or hears gunfire from your hunting- you become a target.

And a 30-06 deer rifle with a good scope will pick you and your kids off one at a time and there will be NOTHING you can do about it!

Then the fuckers will come steal your shit.

Sound like a great life?

Fuck That.

I'll be humanely checking myself out before that happens and crossing over to the Glory that is TRUE REALITY that lies behind this fucked up shit we have now.

Namaste-

Humanity have survived asteroid strikes.

Humanity has survived Dinosaurs.

Humanity has survived plagues, and waves.

Where there is a will, there is a way, and all you really need is a knife, para cord, and mostly a firm mind, body, and spirit, and a Human can overcome anything.

Yours is a fear of death ultimately. You mind runs around thinking of all the ways to die.

You have already defeated yourself.

If you mind runs on how to survive, no matter what, no matter where, and is ready, that is all one can do, and nothing beyond that is going to make any difference anyway.

A virus could be released, and only a few people that have certain mutations survive. All those that prepped, and all those were alive, would not be there anyway, and there might not be another person for 50 miles.

What then but survive until you die, however long that may be. Humans overcome, adapt, very quickly under stress, as all the sciences show, and our DNA as well.

Thats IF, things where to get to that stage.
Im more inclined to believe people would come together and think of an alternative to get past the times, rather than slitting each other throats. I think the biggest area of violence would be the government imposing ...... on the people.

Re: 99% of Preppers are NOT PREPARED for a SHTF SCENARIO!
The funniest part about all this prepper bullshit to me though, is how they are in large part are made up of paranoid, and out of shape military wannabes. I mean of course you got a couple serious folks mixed in there but I find it funny how no one ever emphasizes the importance of keeping in good physical condition in the off chance that you have to abandon all your junk because you're big sweet 'tacticool' rifle just jammed and won't fire.

I mean do they think that all that crap they bring along with them is going to help if you have to do something people aren't too familiar with these days...a thing called running?

And to be honest, I too would focus a lot more on the cool and entertaining things like guns if I could afford such luxurious items. However, being that all I have is my body, mind, and a knife, I figure that I may just have to make due with that if anything happens to occur in the near future.

In my mind you are in pretty poor shape if you cannot run a mile or bench press your own weight a few times....

I agree the only preps you really need is a good knowledge of your environment and survival skills all those preppers are trying to continue in a manner they have become used to those that will actually survive and thrive are those prepared to adapt from day one and move away from the old system imagine 10 mths down the line and your provisions are gone , they will be the ones left behind as most who haven't died will already be adapted to a new reality the preppers will be playing catch up in other words make sure you have written knowledge as in books they are the only preps you need imho

It takes alot of balls to CHOOSE the time and place of your "death". Only the ones who KNOW what lies beyond have lost the fear of death and have no qualms about doing the right thing when the time is right.

Religitards only "have faith"...they don't KNOW!

Reality is SO much more than this!!!!

We're filled with SHIT from the media to take us away from reality, take Scott of the Antartic for example, selfless sacrifice?....murder more like!

The apocolypse will be the disintegration of society as we know it along with the MEDIA, therefore reality will shine through NOT bullshit.

And is it any wonder the MEDIA fills us with fantasy?....cos we're all desperately trying to escape from reality, as it's is so hard and cruel, it's the beast under your bed.
