This is beyond disturbing. I have to wonder when I will find the SWAT team knocking down my door?

Prepper’s Ping!

Only if they know you have accumulated such. Some things can happen at a slow pace.

I would think that providing my Preparedness Manual to the General Public has fairly much marked me as an enemy of the state.

I have often found it rather strange that when we became a nation and threw of the yoke of bondage and were admonished to do so with any oppressive government the first thing the new nation USA did was draft anti sedation laws to protect it's self from those who thought that the government could one day become oppressive against the people.

As long as you have followed your manual, and hidden your supplies ... no worries.

ATTENTION PREPPERS - Having More Than 7 Days Of Food Makes You A Suspected Terrorist

I read the article through twice.

There were several things in it that were not quite accurate as I understand it however I would need to research more. It is always possible for me to be wrong. :)

However I do not see anything in the article that supports the title. Could someone please be so kind as to highlight the sentences in question?

We've all been watching you for sometime now...

Don't worry, nobody in gov't sits around monitoring FR........... and if they did, what are the odds they saw some of your survival threads?

Even more ironic, FEMA itself writes manuals on preparing for catastrophic events. So you could be considered a terrorist by the govt by following advice given...by the govt.

It’s kafkaesque.

[Secret Agent Man]

What is so moronic about this is that everyone 100 years ago would be a ‘terrorist’ because almost everyone had pantries and plenty of stores of food for weeks.

It’s assinine.

Since this is obviously designed to turn normal innocent people into ‘terrorists’ because there is no evidence they are, the govt still has to have a way to get rid of them.

Last time I check it had only been down load around 15,000 times. Think someone might notice that?

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Ah, thank you.

I was beginning to think I was going blind as I have never found you to post things that were tinfoil hat news.

I don’t consider Judge Napolitano and his Freedom Watch show ‘tin foil news’.

[Harmless Teddy Bear]

Neither do I but when the headline proclaims something then fails to back it up or even bring it up in the article I have to wonder what is going on.

I am sure the Judge would not allow that type of argument to be made in his court and I am disappointed that he is doing it here.

Prepper Ping!

“...we could see American citizens being sent to Guantanamo Bay.”

Not to appear flippant, but many abiding in OBAMAVILLES(tent cities and car interiors)because of this Marxist’s policies, might welcome the warm retreat that is Guantanamo, until this bastard is kicked out the back door in 2012 and the White House fumigated.

“...to thwart embryonic international terrorism.”

All this, and yet, NO ONE seems to give a good damn about the Islamist terrorists cells across the country.
