BERKELEY, MO (KTVI) – At least two north county cities have now sent out warning letters to residents about the coming Michael Brown grand jury decision.

The letters gave instructions on preparing residents to have plans in place in case of, “a period of disruption.”

Many of the pieces of advice in the letter sound more like something you’d see in preparation for a storm, which the letter states the advice should be treated as.

The Berkeley letter says residents should be ready to stay in or near their homes for several days.

With any luck, the onslaught of global cooling will make the masses less enthusiastic.

You loot. We shoot. Anyone even approaching our home with a rock or Molotov cocktail will be shot down instantly.

And the weather forecast for tomorrow is:

Seething in the morning, with a chance of riots, followed by mayhem in the afternoon and looting and destruction until 3 a.m. Back to you, Dan.

CNN has apparently decided to go back to this story 24/7. Looks like they don’t want any viewers at all.

The weather forecast for Ferguson for the next several days is pretty chilly. Water cannons even at maximum range should be quite effective. Or maybe call in a couple forest fire fighting tanker or bucket planes...

It is 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 and maybe you can even get your picture as you stand there on the national news.

The world is dry tinder just awaiting the right spark maybe mother nature has decided it is time to shuffle the deck.

So listen to what the bible says: A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it. NIV Proverbs 22:3

Selco covers this in this article many times people just can not except that a breakdown is occurring even as they watch it happening before their eyes. Why don’t they realize it? It’s caused by a condition called ‘Normalcy Bias’ a mental state people enter when facing a disaster.

It causes people to underestimate both the possibility of a disaster occurring and its possible effects. This often results in situations where people fail to adequately prepare for a disaster, and on a larger scale, the failure of governments to include the populace in its disaster preparations. The assumption that is made in the case of the normalcy bias is that since a disaster never has occurred then it never will occur. It also results in the inability of people to cope with a disaster once it occurs. People with a normalcy bias have difficulties reacting to something they have not experienced before. People also tend to interpret warnings in the most optimistic way possible, seizing on any ambiguities to infer a less serious situation.

A good article on ‘Normalcy Bias’ is on our own ChocChipCookies Blog The Survival Mom:

http://thesurvivalmom.com/2010/12/29/normalcy-bias/

You either prepare and stand on your own beholden to no one or you become dependent on others to provide your basic needs and become their ‘serf’. Me I don’t want to be beholden to anyone for providing what is needed for me and mine. I certainly don’t want to have to kiss some ‘gubberment’ third class bureaucratic to try and coax some help from them, I don’t 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 don’t 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.

Just getting started or an old hand you might find my Preparedness Manual helpful. You can download the manual at:

http://tomeaker.com/kart/Preparedness1j.pdf NOTE! THIS IS A FREE DOWNLOAD. I DO NOT MAKE ONE CENT OFF MY PREPAREDNESS MANUAL!

For those of you who haven’t started already it’s 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, cash (I myself have been putting up change for the past few years both for the metal content and the fact that using change places to make what purchases you can will move you down the the list of possible marks during shtf), 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.”

Again I like to recomend FReeper’s ChocoChipCookie Blog The Survival Mom (Please Blog Police let this one slide!) Where you can get lots of useful information like:

CNN can be so tedious. There was a white woman pastor who went to the protest regularly to pray. They did not take to her too kindly and she was cursed at and threatened. She said she was on their side because she also was tired of the “policing.” She has two kids who are half black. I don’t think she got a rise out of the CNN presenters. CNN has got the concerned for racism meme down, otherwise.
