You do understand the Government has been all these things for well over probably eighty years. Guns, ammo, and cans of chef Boyardee? That's not gonna work, sorry. Maybe if you wanna fuck up your neighbor, but if so, I'll lay you odds that's what your supposed to do. Gook Luck! |

Epic Beard Guy User ID: 911215 United States 07/11/2010 07:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's coming so you better be ready for it. The question is what is "it"? There are so many things coming together that you really can't prepare for all the possibilities, so you just do your best. I recommend at least a years food and water, (and that would include for friends and family you may need to secure you property) in a mobile position in case you are forced to leave. Of coarse keeping the stuff you prepared is equally important so you will need guns and ammo, and I don't mean enough to go to the shooting range next Saturday. I mean enough to protect you home and supplies for a year or two. HOPE FOR THE BEST, BUT PREPARE FOR THE WORST! Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. "America is at that awkward stage.

Quoting: Epic Beard GuyThe current likely scenario is something along the lines of a GLOBAL economic collapse....but it could be a PHYSICAL disaster, like in the Gulf too....only WORSE. The best approach is PREPPING enough supplies to last you for a MINIMUM of 6 months. It will take that long for the government or military to control the marauding zombie mobs who DIDN'T PREPARE. |

Quoting: BROKENYeah, that seems like a good idea for a few minutes after you first start thinking about it. But then you realize that people don't have to break into your house if you are inside. All they have to do is threaten to burn it down with you inside it, and you will open the door right up to them and let them enter without any violence at all. |

Quoting: .. 607535Necessarily a Bad Thing.. ...for those who have prepared YES... ...but for the SHEEP....NO it is not. In that situation, just look out for all the "city zombies" who will come looking for what you have. In a true collapse....you cannot live in the cities. Cities produce nothing of sustainability....they only CONSUME. Therefore those who live in the city will start "swarming" back to the suburbs and farms looking for resources and food. At some point though....the government will kick in to help...assuming it is intact....and then it will get better to a degree. ...but that could take a LONG while and you have to be able to "weather the storm." |
