What will you do if the Internet & Phone communication are taken down?
The CB Patriot Project ^ | Scott

Posted on 06/18/2014 8:41:24 PM PDT by publius321

Tea Parties happened organically BECAUSE we have each other. Hence, terrorists, tyrants and those who intend harm to our freedom and constitution know they MUST isolate us by CONTROLLING the INTERNET and phone communication when it hits the fan. (Articles on that subject are featured in at cbPatriot.)

The CB Patriot Project is the place to join patriots from around America who have already joined the project to assure we can still communicate and congregate - just as we did in 2008 when the tea parties began to rise up.

Social media was not nearly as relevant when we started this project in 2011. Advertising funds have been minimal because we do not sell anything to support ads.

Now - that social media accounts like Twitter and Facebook are much more widely utilized among conservatives/patriots, we have the opportunity to make this WORK organically by sharing the project efficiently and effectively.

It costs nothing to join and is all volunteer. It will take participants in large numbers to work, so if you believe there is in fact a need for this, Tweeting and sharing on your social media platforms will help significantly.

Check it out. Join and spread the word if you see the impending need.

The tow driver had to show her she could use her key to physically unlock her door.

Now THAT is funny. SAD, but funny.

As to CW, still have the ‘ear’ but never was interested in an Amateur License....

I used to tell my ‘Amateur’ friends that I was a Professional Operator.

Of course if the SHTF, being able to copy 30+ or so WPM will offset the need for a ‘license’....

My lazy assed, momma's basement dwelling, 40 year old neighbor asked me for advice on opening his locked car. Same thing...I said "try the key, as$wipe."

I don't see how activists gathering physically in large groups benefits the government in any way.

An intentional outage of the internet would be a bad thing for the government. It would drive people content to gripe and post on the web to actually get up and meet with people of a like mind.

Once those "inert objects" start moving, it may be hard to stop them.

I can still communicate via Amateur Radio.

Same here. Plus I have other means of wireless comms. It ain't the internet but HF radio traffic will explode after the interwebs go down.

If this was to happen, millions would die.

I am serious.

Most businesses today, especially retail, to include grocery chains, use “just in time” supply methods to save on costs.

They no longer have warehouses nearby, or even within a particular city, filled with replacement stock. As items are purchased and the price code scanned, an entry is made in a database, and when a certain point is reached, a reorder packet goes out over the Internet to a central computer at some HQs that maps out a delivery restock, using centralized warehouse and even point of order from a supplier (like say, Campbells) to load a truck for delivery. The trucks themselves are dispatched and processed via computer and the Internet, and drivers are and trucks are matched up by computer and a route planned by computer that establishes the cheapest delivery schedule.

So, this all stops. Dead.

There are no longer the people in place, or the knowhow because of this, to immediately go back to a manual system of yore. Food would run out in the cities first, as people deplete the no-longer replacing stock of items on the shelves.

Gasoline is delivered to gas stations, and this includes diesel at truck stops, the same way.

In the short run, we’d run out of gasoline, diesel fuel and food about simultaneously. Modern commerce would stop. Urban youths, hungry and out of food, will riot or take whatever they can find by force. Elderly city folks will quietly starve or have what little they have taken and then starve.

Suburbia would likewise face the same challenges but many will fight back, but still, without food, hungry people give up hope and do what they must. But on foot, as all the gas is gone.

It really would be a blood bath.

Country boys will survive, at least the ones with homegrown food and stocks and firearms.

As John Denver sang, Thank God I’m a country boy!

“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”

- Robert A. Heinlein

Note: I have neither butchered a hog nor died gallantly. Otherwise, I meet the standard. I tend to like the sort of person who can do things - particularly if they are comfortable around firearms, (as almost all competent people are).

If telephones and internet went down permanently, we obviously would have a near total breakdown of commerce and economic activity. This would lead to a lock-down in urban areas and a state of more or less anarchy in rural areas.
Using an over the air communication system in this setting exposes the user to relatively easy detection by brigands and government forces unless extraordinary measures are used (short transmission time, codes).
