My little joke, notwithstanding, I fully agree with your advice to keep an emergency kit in the car. At various times, I’ve equipped both cars (and the truck when we had one) with emergency kits. My husband is always taking them out for some reason, however, and they get lost.
For instance, I have 2 nice fleece blankets that roll up that I purchased just for the cars for winter. He took them out last spring, and neither of us can remember what he did with them. First aid kits, jumper cables, etc. They all get misplaced from time to time. Everything should fit into a nice box, or Rubbermaid bucket.
You sound like a dude I read about in the First Book.
His name was Noah.

To top it off, they usually say “we” want them to die so we can laugh at them for not being prepared. We hear that over and over and over. They could just not read the thread if they aren’t interested, but they love to cast us as the villain for hoarding all the food they could have in an emergency. There is food everywhere right now they could store, but they don’t want that - they want to wait until food is scarce, then blame us for having food and not giving it to them.
Each one of them is an individual to make his/her own choices and so am I, so leave me alone just like I leave them alone.
The backpack in the trunk of my car has everything I need to keep me alive for more than three days. I forget it’s there, BUT IT IS.

You can get attacked for just about anything here. Aside from legitimate posters who disagree, there are a lot of leftard moles lurking about.
