It is OK if you think that government is corrupt and incompetent, I think that too.
It is OK to have weapon in your home, and will and knowledge to use it, and it is very good if you think that TV is full of crap.
I think too that S. is gonna hit the fan, and that it makes sense to have bug out location and bug out bag, and lots of cans and ammo.
So we are clear that we agree that all of the above (and lots more) make perfect sense. But one thing does not make sense and that is to let everyone else know that you are thinking like this.
Why?
Because it makes you different from (great) majority of folks around you, and what should be one of the basic and first imperatives?

We ain't talking about revolution, troll. Your argument is a strawman.
No. Do not ignore. Mock and beat, rinse and repeat.

Dear diary,
Today I learned JRandomFreeper has low standards. LOL :)
A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it. NIV Proverbs 22:3
In the house of the wise are stores of choice food and oil, but a foolish man devours all he has. Proverbs 21:20
But if any provide not for his own, and especially for those of his own house, he has denied the faith, and is worse than an unbeliever. 1 Timothy 5:8
We could do this all day if you would like, but I don’t believe that’s the intent of the Bible to provide ammo for a flame war.

“The revolution won’t be televised”
What revolution - did I miss something?
“your chest thumping braggarts”
Who is bragging about what?
“Count me in but not this weekend”
Count you in for what?
damn Laz, I think that’s the most I’ve ever “heard” you say... I’m going have to sit down with a whiskey now...
Sadly, the moment the SHTF charity has to end, replaced by barter.
Had to look that one up, but hell yeah!
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
They hate because they KNOW...
I’m not even talking about some big global catastrophe - everyone suffers a personal calamity, a personal SHTF event. That’s just life.
It could be the loss of a job, a home, a spouse, a child, a parent...the list is endless.
These people prepare no more for a job loss than they would for TEOWAKI. Always assuming there will be someone else to “save them”, or be the boogeyman for their problems.
Denial...and normalcy bias.
Alas, and as many times as I’ve hounded you on those topics, I’ve bugged them, too - to no avail.
People will either look ahead and prepare, are be screwed (SHTF or not)
I've got a homemade bullet puller that works like a charm. A good piece of oak about an inch thick is all you need. And some tools.
