Why? Why lead instead of say copper or aluminum?

Copper and aluminum bullets mar gun barrels.

Oh my God! We’re all gonna die. Good thing I bought an extra jar of peanut butter.

These apocalyptic stories have been running around since Clinton the Beast invited in Chinese divisions to hide behind Texas sagebrush and pop out and enslave all of us.

Fortunately, the Texas Rangers beat the ChiComm divisions back.

Good grief!

“Something Big = Angela Merkel”

Hey, Merkel grew up in East Germany and hates commies, unlike the 50 IQ drooling commie pig Buckwheat from Shitcago.

Buy guns..... several

With guns you can get what you need, or stop those who want to take your stuff.

Of course prepare other things, and stay calm

“So SergeantDave, how do you really feel about the “flying 0”, don’t hold back”

I had to hold back because I ran out of adjectives.

Black clouds cover the horizon, the lightening is flashing and there is the distant sound of thunder! The storm flags are going up, will you heed them?

I am very aware that if it’s the great end that there is nothing I can do to stop or change it, but history is full of instances and times when man or nature have caused such a calamity that people have cried out and begged God to end it all.

The bible has many verse such as this:

A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.
NIV Proverbs 22:3

This verse and others are there for a reason and I urge all to take heed of them, because we are clearly on the edge. Everyday there is a new story about the ‘Yutes’ who grow more restless everyday and when you add the fact that because of the economy people are already on edge it won’t take much to set things off.

Reminds me of one of my favorite quotes:

“Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: The Siege of AR-558 (#7.8)” (1998)
Quark: Let me tell you something about Hew-mons, Nephew. They’re a wonderful, friendly people, as long as their bellies are full and their holosuites are working. But take away their creature comforts, deprive them of food, sleep, sonic showers, put their lives in jeopardy over an extended period of time and those same friendly, intelligent, wonderful people... will become as nasty and as violent as the most bloodthirsty Klingon. You don’t believe me? Look at those faces. Look in their eyes.

Today we have ‘yutes’ who roam our streets who are with out morals, without respect for law or life itself. They will look are you with the same ‘doll eyes’ a shark does before he eats you and they will feel no more compassion than the shark does.

That will be the test of many. Most preppers I know are Christian people and they will hesitate to do what they might have to do to stop the ‘yutes’. On the other hand the ‘yutes’ won’t think twice nor lose a minute of sleep, in fact they will smile and laugh about it.

For those who are just starting or are old hands at prepping you may find my Preparedness Manual helpfull. You can download it at:

http://www.tomeaker.com/kart/preparedness1i.pdf

For those of you who haven’t started already it’s time to prepare almost past time maybe. You needed to be stocking up on food guns, ammo, basic household supplies like soap, papergoods, cleaning supplies, good sturdy clothes including extra socks, underwear and extra shoes and boots, a extra couple changes of oil and filters for your car, tools, things you buy everyday start buying two and put one up.

If you like to read more about what SHTF in Bosnia was like take a look at this post on Bosnia War Survivor Selco’s Blog at:

http://shtfschool.com/

“There is no greater disaster than to underestimate danger. Underestimation can be fatal.”

As the LDS say “When the emergency is upon us the time for preparedness has past.”

I, like so many others on FR, get the message and are busy preparing. I have my site picked out to get to when it is time to GOOD. I do have one question: 1)what do you do IF when you get to your selected site, it is not habitable?

Could be weather, earthquake or even lightning? I always think of worst case scenarios.

“You know, most people are probably scoffing at your comment.

Me? I think you’re pretty damn close to hitting the nail on the head.”

I’m not scoffing, I agree. Anytime some random news comes up and gets more than 30 sec national news MSM air time, it’s a sure fire signal that something is going on that we’re not supposed to pay attention to. Misdirection may be one of the most “perfected” arts to ever arise.

Look up, on Amazon, a book called
“How to survive the end of the world as we know it”
by Rawles.

It’s what got me going...

“everyday life” would be MUCH different after a financial collapse

“but distractors from..what?”

ANYTHING to keep the MSM’s nose out of the real news...which is essentially the Global Elite are losing control of the masses and the discussion for the most part....and OWS is an attempt by them to prove they’re not.

To all:

Phoenix Capital posts frequently to Zero Hedge, which I read daily.

He ALWAYS posts that ad for his “How to survive...” report at the end.

They are correct in their analysis of the international economic situation. I’ve never read that report. Just ignore the ad, and you’ll usually find some relevant information in their articles.

I’m just saying there is a lot of buzz going on. More so than usual. Seems like a lot of government agencies are preparing for something.

Last week I learned that the bullets fired from the A 10 had an aluminum jacket covering the actual projectile made of uranium.

.....how does that affect the everyday life of Americans?....

  1. If our economy crashes it will be because of our massive debt, meaning the dollar is no longer the world's default currency.
  2. With the dollar falling to almost worthless levels, large concerns like power generation companies will not be able to afford to buy coal, gas or fuel to power the grids. Once down, these grids are not easy to start up again. we could see an entire generation with no electrical power.
  3. With diesel fuel selling for $85 per gallon or more, trucks will not roll.
  4. With no electricity or supply lines to restock grocery store shelves, you can imagine how the everyday life of Americans will be affected.

This is just one list of possibilities. There are many others but none of them end up good for unprepared and unarmed Americans. The initial die off after the first week will be massive. Those in cities will be hardest hit. Those that survive will come streaming out and into our neighborhoods. Some begging, some just flat out trying to steal what they can to survive.

Collapse the dollar and then think of all the possible scenarois.
