Greetings All;
Here is another thought provoking discussion on keeping yourself & your family & friends safe when your world turns upside down & inside out.
It was posted on this ping-list about civil unrest/riot/s, and what would you do, if caught in such a situation/s.
Well for starters for me, I do NOT plan to be caught in such a situation. I avoid the areas where such could occur at anytime. If for some reason, that I would happen be caught in such, I would become a "grey-man" & disappear. Head on a swivel, cell phone turned off, move laterally to the disturbance/s till I was blocks away from the area in trouble. Then start moving towards my safe area/s or bug out routes [that I have checked out in advance] I would not transmit any data until well clear of the trouble [this means NO phone calls to let family & friends know I was safe, till I was was totally safe] Then my comm would be via a net work that I trusted or encrypted voice [ie coded cb,ham radio, ect], then go dark till I either got home or to my secure location. At NO time would I pull a weapon/s unless there was NO choice left. I would try to out think my problem/s than use of lethal force. [that would only draw, very unwelcome attn, from everyone. Remember the object is to blend in & disappear before everyone's eyes. And pulling a weapon puts you right into the cross hairs, esp of law enforcement who are already on edge as it is. So use every means at your disposal to escape & evade & DE-esclate your surroundings.
I like that idea about the kayak. It will stimulate ideas.
“If Cell carriers are using GPS to track you (As the conversation I replied to) then they aggregate that GPS data. Im aware of how GPS works.”
“There is a protocol for turning off GPS but it wasnt instantaneous when I was in the field.”
First, you were never “in the field”. You come across as one of those young kids that reads the Internet, aggregates badly, then talks like he’s the expert.
You are very unaware of how GPS works as there is no such thing as “aggregating” GPS data.
You aren’t worth talking to.
We’re done here.
It is just ironic how many grocery stores have had some closings in Texas, from Walmart to SunFresh Market to now The Fresh Market.
When even up scale grocery stores in a major market are struggling, the economy is in trouble.
You should leave alright. You’re embarrassing yourself.
Florida climate makes a difference. Less needed in shelter.
I might end up miles from home when landing so expect to use inflatable fabric and ropes attached to “camp” if necessary. No medications so just first aid kit and survival blanket etc. in waterproof kit with water straw. Bug spray and minimal food should be adequate.
Funny you should say that after the past 7 years and 4 months in America.
Most canned goods are fine well after their expiration dates. Tuna/sardines are a big exception. Open canned fish six or so months after expiration, and you will know it's gone very bad! Everything else I have tried is as good as a fresh can or almost as good several years after the "best by" date.
I might not have said it by accident.......we are definitely heading that way very quickly.
When they shut off the direct deposit, credit / debit card and pay-by-phone (which is of the prior), one is persona non grata, unable to buy or sell, just as Revelation chapter 13 predicts.
These systems are already being deployed and are functioning. Not widely in the U.S. Yet.
