The banks in Spain are hemmoraging money due to bank runs. The Europeans are talking of monetizing their debts, up to a debt load of 50% of Europe's GDP! That's incredible.
If Europe's economy collapses, it is anticipated that the U.S. economy would, like a dominoe, fall as well.
We have just a bit over 60 days until the election. How long until the shit hits the fan, before or after the election?
As we found out in the 60’s, when the first riots happened, the fools in Washington have no guts. When the riots start again, they will just open the checkbook and push the country over the fiscal cliff.
Did you see this?
When armed citizens realize that the cops are useless, it will be open season on anyone who looks like they belong to the wrong demographic group. Obama has bred a lot of anger. Both sides will be quick to attack, but one side will be in a much better position to make the shots count.
I see very serious demographic change coming to this country.
I read it. We’re ready.
Too easy to create choke points and “fatal funnels” out here in the boondocks.
Food and fuel are an instant issue in a crisis; medicines,etc. are secondary. Gold will be near worthless, except at the highest levels in areas under some kind of order.
Best to start thinking about it, even if you think SHTF scenarios are unlikely.
The chance of major banking failure is real. Not probable in my mind, but real.
If rioting takes place it will be in major urban areas. I simply don’t see anarchy in TX. Citizens help each other too much and they are armed.
We would pull together in hard times for the most part.
In scattered cities it could be real nasty. Chicago, Detroit, NY City, LA
Rioting? That could happen, it has happened before with less pretence.
I think those of us who constantly monitor things on sites like this will know long before the EBT cards and SS direct deposit ‘checks’ dry up.
A welcome change at that.
By the way, I like Ann Barnhardt.
She is pretty smart and knows commodities trading.
Yes the only “precious metals” in that situation are lead, brass and copper.
Here’s the article Ann was writing about:

If you have lead, you can get gold if you must..
Don’t see gold of much concern at that point, though.
Better to concern with dies, bullets, powder, shells and primers, IMHO.
bump!

You can’t eat gold. In a situation like that you’ll need useful things to trade, butane, MRE’s, canned goods, medicines etc
and you better be prepared to defend your freehold.
BLOAT.
Does anyone have suggestions for a tactical shotgun that would also be usable by a wife who does not have a lot of upper body strength but who is not afraid to pull a trigger?
how could you tell if this happened in detroit?
