Times Like now make me wish I lived in the middle of the woods in the middle of nowhere near a recently shut down but not scrapped toilet paper factory powered by a nearby hydroelectric dam....

I would be set...

If you can change a tire, you can build an AR-15.

Your best bet is to stick together with family, friends and neighbors. Defend your home and neighborhood.

Go tribal rather than solo.

there already is a big rush on firearms sales right now...

i do not disagree about it getting more intense, but sometimes the store is so full of customers that you can’t walk around inside and they have to keep you outdoors until someone leaves

now is the time to get equipped, as it may very well (likely will, imho) get even worse ... at which time you won’t be able to get the toys you really want....you’ll have to settle for just about anything that goes Pop....
that they still have available

NOW you can still get some selection...

Rawles has been predicting the end of the world for the past 20 years.

It’s made him a wealthy man.

Is this really different than 19th century evangelists?

Hillary’s minions naively believe that they will be able to
ban guns like they did in Australia and that gun owners will just line up like sheep to turn in their guns.

if you have a honest one year supply of food, preferably two years, and a good core position in physical precious metals that you hold at home… hidden… not in

What a joke

Yeah right people starving but you have your food and gold

SHTF it is over for modern civilization with no recovery

Massive riots starvation and then plague etc etc as medical supplies become non existent

Modern society is too complex with interlinking factors that affect all facets of life

There is a lot more to prepping than stocking up on firearms & ammo. Look to water supply/s & long term food supply, shelter, safety, ect...Having lots of firearms is not the answer. Having a small community around of like minded folks will go a very long way to surviving any major disaster.

If there is any serious gun confiscation (ie Australian model), there will be a civil war. That’s why the government thugs have been careful to limit gun control to leftist states and the big cities. We have had beta testing on a few vets and there is a push in the schools and in health care to identify and selectively target gun owners.

Any full throttled across the board gun confiscation effort by a hitlery or 0bama EO would meet with resistance. Yes, there will be some in the military that will blindly follow orders and shoot US citizens that resist. But many if not most will go AWOL or figure out clever means of evading orders as things deteriorate. These are the people that will wait to see who will be the winner (s). Meanwhile, some will remain military with the aim of overthrowing the existing order and installing themselves as leaders or warlords. At that point, the central government will cease to exist.

A demoralized and divided military cannot function as an effective operating unit. As we have seen in many examples in history, large forces can be defeated when only 10% or so of the unit refuses to follow orders. Look at the Italians in Libya vs the British in WW2. On the opposite extreme, the Japanese soldier fervently and religiously believed that their life belonged to the emperor fought to the death and only rarely surrendered.

A US civil war would likely result in a civil war within the military. It seems inconceivable that under these circumstances the military could maintain cohesion in a war against American conservatives, vets, Christians. The individual soldier would need a unifying ideology that clearly separates themselves from their target. The Nazis had one, the Japanese had one, the Italians did not.

What would the individual American soldier fight for in a CW2? Leftism, communism, fascism; the worship of an 0bama or hitlery?

I don’t see any talk about distilling water. Is this considered impractical?
