Emergency-Preps.com:Hoping for the Best Preparing for the Worst provides a laundry list of forums topics that cover every conceivable survival forums discussion group conceivable.
And in the same way people are doing even less in preparation for the coming Obamageddon, in protecting themselves, learn to survive in a pre-industrial type existence not seen in centuries. The forums here offer that kind of advice, knowledge, wherewithal. Good Luck, All.
Took a quick look .... looks really good and will be spending more time there in the future!! Thanks MM
Ping.
I will definitely be digesting everything I can on this site.

The media, as usual, failed to inform the people on Sandy. Sandy was a carbon copy of Hurricane Ike. They should have run scenes from Ike’s destruction and said “This is what Sandy is going to do.” I think it would have been a little more persuasive.
Prepper PING!!
Sorry for the double ping! There has to be some glitch causing it.
Sandys lesson is right before your eyes just as it was with Katrina; You either prepare and stand on your own or you can depend on a bunch of self-serving politicos, third class bureaucratic and chance to provide your basic needs.
Me I dont want to be beholden to anyone for providing what is needed for me and mine. I certainly dont want to have to kiss some gubberment third class bureaucratic to try and coax some help from them, I dont want some jack booted thug herding me in line and telling me where to stand, sit, eat or sleep. And last but not least I dont want to be shut up in with a bunch of zombies and have to worry about not only trying to get basic necessities but having to fight to keep what I manage to get.
Its your choice you can prep or you can stand around on a bridge waiting for FEMA to bring you a bottle of water, a MRE, a warm blanket and a kiss for your boo-boo. Maybe while you stand there you will get a chance to a prop in some politicos photo op and even get your picture on the national news.
For those who are just starting or are old hands at prepping you may find my Preparedness Manual helpfull. You can download it at:

NOTE! THIS IS A FREE DOWNLOAD. I DO NOT MAKE ONE CENT OFF MY PREPAREDNESS MANUAL!
For those of you who havent started already its time to prepare almost past time maybe. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, papergoods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, gas cans, cooking stove/fuel, tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.
As the LDS say When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.
Or as the bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.
NIV Proverbs 22:3

There is no greater disaster than to underestimate danger.
Underestimation can be fatal.
Any word on what the death toll has been?
I haven’t heard anything.
High ranking military “resignations” and WH appointments whould be included in preppers’ weather forecasting.
