Stockpiles of food will only last so long, but if you have enough guns and ammo you can steal other people’s food and manage to keep yourself alive much longer than otherwise.

Unless the folks that have food stockpiled also have guns.

Thanks Kaslin.
The man illegally built four bunkers in the wilderness on land that is owned by the state and federal government. His buildings weren't discovered until a wildfire swept through the area. Two of the man's bunkers were burned down and ammo exploded.
Fine country craftsmanship. LOL!

A friend jokingly mentioned something along those lines.

I said "You're a Christian and your wife wouldn't let you do it anyway.

Anyone that is prepared probably has guns and anyone unprepared, without guns, probably has no food.

Much easier just to prepare now."

Guns,ammunition and whiskey are adequate preparation.

None of the items will spoil. All can be used immediately and will increase in value in the event of a disaster.

The whiskey has medicinal value as well - but I digress...

Preppers ping - Utah wilderness - lead article:

"An 80-year-old Utah man spent the last 30 years illegally stockpiling guns and grenades.
He then hid the weapons, along with food, in various bunkers throughout the Utah wilderness..
The man illegally built four bunkers in the wilderness on land that is owned by the state and federal government.
His buildings weren't discovered until a wildfire swept through the area.
Two of the man's bunkers were burned down and ammo exploded."
When authorities met with him at his home in Parowan, he admitted to owning the sites and having seven or eight similar stashes in the area."

Learned lesson : Don't build bunkers out of wood where forest fires occur
Concrete bunkers underground are less susceptible to surface wildfires; ammo will explode when extremely heated, or exposed to spark or flame.
Don't build on Federal land because it is illegal, and the Feds and the State covet your firearms and ammo.
The Fed and State officials may have their bunker, but you shouldn't build your own. You can count on the gov. Civil Defense Shelters.
The Feds don't have a sense of humor when it comes to self-preppers, even in the wilderness !

The article says about the doom day prepper that he had quote:

"The man also had weapons stored in various barrels in trash cans throughout the woods. Altogether, he had eight locations spread throughout a two-mile radius."

Guy lived in a small world, I would of at least gotten those barrels like 20-100 miles away from each other or even further then that. Not to bright as far as I'm concerned.

According to Del Schlosser, the man didn't live in the bunkers. He lived in a nearby town but was preparing the bunkers in case of a government collapse or societal problem. The man also had weapons stored in various barrels in trash cans throughout the woods. Altogether, he had eight locations spread throughout a two-mile radius.

Fess up. Which Freeper is this?

They add to it once a month and the oldest gets taken on hikes/camping trips.

Saw a video sometime back about a guy whose bug out plan is to go the high Sierras 200 miles from his current home.

Over the years he’s built 15 hidden rat holes between home and the high country and stocked each with food/water/ammo.
