"TERRORISTS!!!!"

So when does Utah secede since they now are a terrorist state? Sheesh!
Anyone I disagree with and who has a political ideology contrary to mine is clearly a potential terrorist.
Lots of ideas in these section on my manual

Just leave the batteries out and any flashlights should be fine.
As with all things liberal, it all depends upon the meaning of the words. In this case what is a “potential terrorist”?
If you observe that a terrorist is a person who uses violence to induce government to change policy, then how does this compare to a person who firmly believes, that it is not only the right but the duty to help throw off a government that has a “long train of abuses and usurpations, then those people are “terrorists.”
It should be quickly noted that that last sentence comes from the text of the basis of US Law, the Declaration of Independence [1], a document which the US government itself protects in a very closely protected case in a special viewing area in the Rotunda of the National Archives Building in Washington, DC.
It used to be a sharp rebuke for someone to ask of someone was “anti-government”. But what if government has slowly become anti-citizen? So, when federal authorities, as official acts, post letters identifying citizens who have sincere concerns about the willingness of government to be able to maintain an orderly and peaceful society, to continue their primary duty as “Guards for their future security”, then who is the “terrorist”?
I am beginning to think that such officials are the terrorists. It is they who seek to coerce us by credible threat of deadly force to change *our* policy of rule of law and a government that is our servant and not our master. It is they who seek to put us into financial slavery by creating near-infinite debt. It is they who intrude into our very homes, even to regulation of how much water our toilets use.
This is coming to a head. We have few peaceful options left. The primary one being an Article V convention of the states to amend and repair the relationship of the government to the states and the people.
It used to be that the primary limit on government was the fact there was only so much money to spend. But in the last 100 years, government has given itself power to create near-infinite amounts of money, mostly in debt it will force our yet-unaborted future generations to service.
In order to limit government, we must limit its money. That must be the first order of business of an Article V convention. We must try this peaceful option before it becomes too easy to attempt non-peaceful ones.
[1] The Declaration of Independence Part of American Law
Professor John Eidsmoe , Professor of Law at Faulkner University School of Law, writes:
“The role of the Declaration of Independence in American law is often misconstrued. Some believe the Declaration is simply a statement of ideas that has no legal force whatsoever today. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Declaration has been repeatedly cited by the U.S. Supreme Court as part of the fundamental law of the United States of America .
“The United States Code Annotated includes the Declaration of Independence under the heading ‘The Organic Laws of the United States of America’ along with the Articles of Confederation, the Constitution, and the Northwest Ordinance. Enabling acts frequently require states to adhere to the principles of the Declaration; in the Enabling Act of June 16, 1906, Congress authorized Oklahoma Territory to take steps to become a state. Section 3 provides that the Oklahoma Constitution ‘shall not be repugnant to the Constitution of the United States and the principles of the Declaration of Independence.’” (Christianity and the Constitution, pp. 360-361)

Well, there goes the Amish and all of the super coupon queens with their stockpiles! Also, every family that belongs to Costco/BJs/Sams Club. Once again bureaucracy loses touch with reality.
To criticisms of sensationalism and embellishment, Paul Revere noted that King George III`s British laws on the books characterize those who have guns, seven days worth of food or ammunition in their homes as potential terrorists against the Crown..
and yet FEMA wants people especially those in Hurricane prone areas, Tornado prone areas, and Earthquake prone areas to have at least 7 days worth of food on hand.
It makes you feel like your taking crazy pills.
Yes, Homeland Security wants us to be prepared for emergencies. FEMA is part of Homeland Security, and if you go to the link below, you will find lists of items you should have for an emergency. They say you may not have time to buy things after the emergency happens, so buy things now so you will have them.
Of course if you buy items for an emergency and someone in the store sees you buying several of something, be prepared to be arrested as a suspected terrorist.

Okay, for example, in Chapter 27 he talks about having a sturdy, well maintained 4 wheel drive. Agreed. But, maybe I’m missing the part where he talks about you (possibly) being screwed in the case of an EMP attack and your sturdy, well maintained 4 wheel drive not turning on, etc.
My husband is an electrical engineer thinks that mostly the EMP threat is overstated. But, it’s easier (I think) to stock items that we know will not be affected, rather than take the chance. So, would you stock a bag with glow sticks as opposed to a wind-up powered flashlight as opposed to a battery LED flashlight? That’s the kind of info I’m interested in.
They WANT us all to be outlaws? Well, how dare they !
Candle wicks and blocks of paraffin will allow you to make whatever size candles you need. If you can heat water you can make candles.
I am wanting info specifically for a bug-out bag to be kept in our autos.
Oh yeah, I also am curious about “shelf life” of ammo stored in extremely hot and humid autos.
EMP needs something to act as a channel to travel through the miles and miles of power lines and just such a conduit so that what makes the power grid vulnerable as well as anything hook to it. Other things not so much. One thought is things not on and/or not attached to the grid would not suffer serious damage.
Great, we are the target. We just want to be left alone.
When do the inspections and confiscations begin?
Sealed ammo boxs with desiccant packs (A desiccant is a hygroscopic substance that induces or sustains a state of dryness)
I almost am sure I am on a list somewhere just because of my work here on FR.
