Gun sales spike amid fears of federal regulation<<<

I think folks are beginning to discover that they will need guns and are waking up to what may be coming at us.

Even if it is a rabbit for the stew pot.

There's another reason to start a rabbit warren - do you have a diabetic in the family?

My 15 year old son is a type 1 diabetic. He doesn't make any of his own insulin. If we were to be cut off of his insulin supply, he'd be dead in short time.

I'm *praying* that a diet of rabbit may buy him enough time to get his insulin back.

There's such a thing as "Rabbit Starvation". Rabbit is *very* lean meat and a steady diet of rabbit is not good for the long term precisely because it has no fat. If I'm thinking about this right, that's exactly what he'd need. NO carbs, NO fat and pure protein. It wouldn't be pleasant, but if he had enough water and exercise, it might just get him through.

Type 1 diabetes is a terrible disease. The ONLY people who survive it live in western nations. If the SHTF, I don't know if he'd survive it. What sucks is that, other than the diabetes, he's an intelligent, athletic, healthy young man.

Frankly, *that* terrifies me more than anything else.
