Hard to say what percentage of private elites are preppers. But as someone who lives near the wilderness, I can tell you there are businesses that cater to building refuges for elites. Some have private airstrips and are easily accessible only by air.

100% of congress and high-level fedgov elites have bunkers...multiple bunkers.

2DV,

Let me ask you this, what are you going to do with your weapons? Possession will be illegal. Most individuals will do what they normally do, turn them in unfortunately. I don’t want to have to see that happen here but if Hitlery gets in and the SC gets one of her lesbos on board, Heller was 5-4, look for a 4-5 immediately on any new cases.

BTW, mine are not going to the smelter.

Precious few of them [media and insiders] are anywhere near as immune as they believe themselves to be.

This article reads like Ayn Rand. The so called insiders do not bother with history, obviously. And what happens when they get a permanent Democrat majority?

I stated to hard core lefties that when they get their way, I will go to the concentration camp. But, when I do, they would be there to greet me. They do not get it.

The leftist elite WANT a violent response from the well-mannered Trump supporters. The mark that distinguishes marxism from socialism is violence in achieving their ends.

>>The Deplorables have the longest fuse. It is, however, a fuse.

THE WRATH OF THE AWAKENED SAXON
by Rudyard Kipling

It was not part of their blood,
It came to them very late,
With long arrears to make good,
When the Saxon began to hate.

They were not easily moved,
They were icy — willing to wait
Till every count should be proved,
Ere the Saxon began to hate.

Their voices were even and low.
Their eyes were level and straight.
There was neither sign nor show
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not preached to the crowd.
It was not taught by the state.
No man spoke it aloud
When the Saxon began to hate.

It was not suddently bred.
It will not swiftly abate.
Through the chilled years ahead,
When Time shall count from the date
That the Saxon began to hate.

Three words (2 if you’re Joe Biden):

Resistance
Restoration
Retribution

And I am not ashamed to say that I will take a grim satisfaction in the last item.

Mrs Clinton has promised to “talk to white people” about “what they must do” to improve race tensions. Can’t wait to hear that

The parallels to 1788 France are uncanny. If elected Hillary will have her two estates, the elites and the media, and they will lock out the common people just assuming they are too dumb to know what is going on. This will ignite the firestorm. The “deplorables” will be the new sans culottes and we should all prepare for times that will shake the foundations of this nation.

Society is always near some sort of breaking point, and yet it very rarely breaks. Especially since the Industrial Revolution, the fact is society has a lot of momentum, and most folks to too busy to man the ramparts. People GROUSE constantly, especially on the internet, but that doesn’t mean crap. The fact that so many folks are pretending a second generation super rich guy isn’t part of the elite really shows you just how far society really is from any breaking point.

Doesn’t matter if they have refuges in out of the way areas; the hired help will still be there, the hired help is not stupid.
When things get bad enough, the HIRED HELP WILL JUST TAKE WHAT THEY WANT.

You are probably correct. This is far more ‘1984’ than 1788. Television, sports, pornography and drugs sap the masculine energy necessary to even attempt to reclaim traditional America.

But there is a huge disconnect. Just look at Bill Kristol and George Will. They really, truly, believed that there were millions of people who looked to them as gurus and would follow their lead on the GOP presidential candidate.

I often think that we Baby Boomers have lived the most care free and charmed life in the history of this violent world, and the time is coming very soon to pay the piper. In fact, the bill is past due.

A divided citizenry, no matter how massively armed with rifles and pistols will not prevail against military units and gunships.

If the left thinks they have deconstructed the military and police agencies of this country to the point that they will turn their guns on Americans then they are in for a big surprise.

Deplorables actually take their constitutional duties seriously.

It’s not TV, sports and porn, it’s life. People have bills and responsibilities and things that need to get done. You expect people to get evicted from their homes because they walked away from their jobs to go be part of the revolution? Really? We no longer live in a version of the world where you can just go alternative in your life, no longer can you build a cabin any old place plop the wife and kids down safely and go fight the good fight. The Industrial Revolution means we have jobs and paperwork that must be respected.

According to various circulation and ratings Kristol and Will have at least hundreds of thousand who pay attention to them.

Something like this happened in France in the 18th Century and heads rolled! First to die—Muslims who fail to support the USA. Then Newspaper Reporters who have souled their souls to the Progressives—then left wing college professors. Then Hollywood producers and actors who think they can control how we think.
