Preppers’ PING!

That thar’s a gun.

In the last days, an angel from heaven is going to open the door to the pit, and demons will flow out to sting men to the point where they will want to die, but can’t. Revelation 9.

I do hope that, in all of their prepping, the preppers will be readying themselves for demons as they are for other disasters.

In the history of mankind man or nature has repeated cause such disasters and calamities that men have prayed that God would bring his end. It is by far more likely that preppers will find themselves in a man made disaster than a God made one.

But of that day and hour knows no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. Matthew 24:36

One thing I have noticed about those shelters. They all have an air vent. So when I’m out of food and booze, I will just head out in the hills and follow vehicle tracks until I see an air vent. I could simply plug the air vent, but then I would still be locked out. So instead I will put some putrid smelling stuff in the air vent until the door is opened.

I find it odd that for such a Conservative site FR sure seems to have a lot of low life thieving robbing murdering scumbags on it.

Just pointing out the obvious defect in the stupid design.

[Kartographer]

You didn’t point out the design flaw you state what you would do. That’s not the same.

And a good point at that. You thief./Sarcasm on

I clearly pointed out the design flaw. I did it in a way that draws a picture in the mind. That is not something anybody (including me) on this site would ever do. But anybody stupid enough to buy these things thinking to be absolutely secure are fooling themselves. I’m not a criminally minded person, and was able to find this ridiculously easy way to fail the entire system in about 20 microseconds.

Some people have a different worst case scenario. It they need it, you won't be around to sniff arounds afterwards. Besides, some of us preppers have planned to sleep at night.

You said:"So when I’m out of food and booze, I will just head out in the hills and follow vehicle tracks until I see an air vent. I could simply plug the air vent, but then I would still be locked out. So instead I will put some putrid smelling stuff in the air vent until the door is opened.<

You didn't say somebody could or that what would they do if, you said "So when I’m out"

[PA Engineer]

Interesting. Thanks for the post. There does seem to be a collective unconscious at work here. People know. I’m not bad off, but I sure wish I had that money to throw around.

[dsrtsage]

OK, fine...next time I tell a story I will write it in the third person so you can understand the point of the story.

[PA Engineer]

You didn't say somebody could or that what would they do if, you said "So when I’m out"

Many people should be a lot more worried about that "perfectly normal service man" (or women) that shows up at the door over the next couple of years. It is happening now.

[Kartographer]

That’s your problem I understood your intent and you are embarrassed that you revealed yourself.
