You have to ask yourself on one hand they keep say '12:00 and all is well". While of the other hand they tell us it's 10 minutes to midnight you need to make sure you have a change of drawers and bring in your tomato plants.

Preppers’ PING!!

[Lurker]

My local park district is running a zombie preparedness class for teens ages 12-17 this weekend.

I think its a good plan.

My wife and kids used to make fun of my “prepping.” We never had lost power for more than an hour. We were always able to get gas. The water was always warm.

The power went out for a week after a freak snow/ice storm in October wiped out the grid.

We had power. We had food. We had gas to get us to work.

Now, they make sure they have preps in their cars whenever they go anywhere.

Its nice to be right once in a while.

Does it involve signing the zombies up for food stamps, putting them up in hotels and registering them to vote?

The CDC has been promoting Zombie Preparedness for years now. Some are indeed tasked with encouraging people to be prepared for any crisis, and find that "zombies! OMGWTFBBQ!" is a fun & effective motivator. Others are tasked with maintaining the status quo. Hence the political schizophrenia.

I thought Kansas was wiped out back in the '80s.

IMO, this is only a cute way of getting the LIVs to think about preparedness.

Common sense just doesn’t seem to get through to the millions of dumbed down people in this country.

I wanna know why the government is prepping us for disasters of late.

What do they know?

They really should come out with it and inform us about the possibilities on the horizon, so we actually understand what the threat is.

[The Duke]

Maybe it’s just my imagination, but I swear I saw a bunch of zombies in Ferguson, MO a couple of weeks ago(?)

[nhwingut]

Totally worthless article only written for the headline and to make Brownback look silly with mid terms approaching.

The Zombie preparedness is actually run by the feds.

But Nat Journal is dishonest.

Why Is Kansas Preparing for the Zombie Apocalypse?

Because you’d be called a racist if you say what you’re actually preparing for.
