"The thing is, in all my long life this has never happened and now we are rapidly collapsing economically and that sets up criminals to try to get what someone else has. I think we are past the time when it was coming as it is now here."

I met some young guys friday at a yard sale....they're in the Coast Guard, medical types of some kind. They are almost in a panic about their sudden realization about the threat and how unpreppared they are and that they should be prepping.
Initially they were trying to convince me (and my buddy) to do so also because there was a real threat. Finally, we revealed to them that we were preppers and set them right on a few things they were about to do wrong, etc.

One of the guys was going to contact me on FR but I don't expect to hear from him.
I'm encouraged though to see clean-cut, smart, young guys like them 'coming around.'

Good for them and for you to help them.
