Everybody should have a cheap spare computer that’s not connected to the internet for personal backup of files.
Also, a couple of flash/thumb drives.
What is CAP?
I dont know what to think about this. Hell Beck is so paranoid, as he should be, everyone and their dog are after him..... Did he say anything about Lincoln Memorial Rally today?
SUPERSTITIOUS dread about the end of the world is nothing new.
Early Christians lived in almost daily expectation of Armageddon. In the Middle Ages, no one doubted we would all fry after a terrible confrontation betwen the forces of good and evil.
But the real panic merchants came into their own a thousand years ago, at the end of the FIRST millennium.
Some historians claim that thousands of people left friends and families and hurried to Jerusalem for the second coming in the year 1000.
Back home, lords and peasants fled to church on December 31, or gathered under crucifixes.
Rich men surrendered wagon loads of jewels, convicts were let out of prison, there was a wave of suicides and farm animals were allowed to wander off.
Other historians condemn such stories as romantic myths, pointing out that most people were too uneducated to know what year it was.
And the Roman Catholic church, sole religious authority in the West at the time, explicitly opposed any talk about the end of the world.
But that didn’t stop the doomsday merchants. A monk called Ralph Glaber, from Burgundy, wrote in the 990s about wanton
behaviour; infernos in major cities in Italy and France; great calamities; the terrible screaming of the people and the deaths of many famous personalities.
In the last decade of the first millennium, the extraordinary Peace of God movement started in France.
Huge throngs of people would gather in the fields to worship relics and swear oaths of peace.
But despite two thousand years of doom and gloom
... we’re still here!
THESE are the words of famous psychiatrist Sigmund Freud...

Center for American Progress? I don’t know.
And what am I supposed to do with all the stuff I download and where do I begin?
I guess I’ll start with failblog.org. I like that one.
It’s irresponsible to goad listeners with such cassandra-esque ravings.
Some people will simply say anything that bumps up the ratings that dictate the size of their paycheck, but that’s irresponsible.
Frankly, it borders on lunacy.
Beck makes his money and reputation from being an alarmist.
The man is not to be believed.
So, is he a liar or an alarmist?
I think this is far-fetched, but just in case, anyone got ham radio up and running?
I save a lot of stuff to my external hard drive. Things like the STORM handbook, the coming insurrection. Mostly just stuff to learn and know they tactics of the left.
One thing I think is especially important to read are the 45 goals of communism in America read into the congressional record by A S Herlong in 1963.

Only a total moron could look at that list and fail to see the sucess they’ve had.
Maybe both.
Time will tell whether Beck is right or wrong.
Meanwhile, given the current situation we find ourselves in with a Marxist president installed by global financial elitists and kept there by a state-run media, I’ll hedge my bets and hold fire until I see the results.
Personally, I tend to go with what Beck’s saying — better safe than sorry. His advice is sensible.
The rest of you naysayers who so complimentarily add your tinfoil hats to your “considered” comments do not impress. People laughed at Noah too... before they drowned.
Proceed at your own risk.
Ham radio?? Nope, can't, religious convictions don'tchaknow!
But I do have two liver radios and one veal radio ready to go!
So I'm good.....
But still.....
Agreed, better safe than sorry.
I’m with you. His enemies are trying their best to isolate him into kooksville so I am still giving him credit where credit is due.
I don’t listen to his radio show because I’m usually still sleeping at that early hour, but his TV show is a must see in my house.
Bump to the top for more eyes to see that one.
I’ve read them before and agree—it’s shocking to realize how much they’ve accomplished.
What he says is very true, and it has been hidden in plain sight because the idiot box MSM doesn’t cover it. Everyone is too busy thinking about Lindsey or Lebron to actually keep up with what the busy bees at the FCC, NSA, DHS and “CyberCommand” are up to.
It is rather depressing. George Orwell deserves a re-read.
