This is a true story, it just hasn’t happened yet.
“I’m hungry grandma Kay” Abbie cried “When are we going to eat”? “I don’t know sweetie, I’m hungry too” Kay replied. Abbie just stood there in the living room in her bulky coat and boots swaying back and forth with her head hanging down and weeping softly. She was skin and bones, Kay knew she wouldn’t last much longer. After 3 weeks there had been nothing to eat anywhere and now, only 6 weeks after the lights went out, they were starving.
“Grandma, remember when I told you my friend Marla’s family was storing food at their cabin?” said Abbie. “Yes” Kay sighed. “Why didn’t we store food?” Abbie asked. “Well” Kay said sheepishly, “Everyone thought it was so silly back then, a waste of time and money….“ said Kay as she slumped exhausted in her favorite chair, knowing she could not save Abbie or herself. She thought “If only….”. She ran her glove across the fine leather chair and realized she could have bought enough food for years for Abbie and herself for what she paid for her beloved chair; it would have been so easy back then, just 6 weeks ago. Now, she would give all she had for a single can of stew.
The moral, the point? Give your family a gift of life this Christmas, buy the extra food. Canned goods last many many years if not damaged. Put rice, etc. in Mylar bags with oxygen absorbers (Total $2.50 per 5 gallons plus the rice) and they will last 25 years. You can sense the future, they cannot, it is up to you to provide for them.
What about the Zombies trying to get into your house because they know you have food stored there (hmm, fat people live in that house...). You can only stock so much ammo, it seems.
Learn the art of reloading.
Ants and grasshoppers....seems to me this is not really news but more like a blog
Oh my!
Exactly, this might be activism (as in survivalist activism) but it ain’t News.
Yep, you are better off getting the food by force when it comes to that than having to store and defend.
Should I store it in the bomb shelter I built back in the 50’s?
If the world becomes that bleak, I just need one round.
Along with that canned food give them a Mossberg 500 tactical shotgun and a few cases of Hornady defensive loads.
Occupy Walmart!
Why? What is the limit. We invest in things like stored food, ammo, gold in accordance to what we assess the probability of the need.
If we assess major social upheval to be 1% per year, we invest 1% of our income every year in food, ammo, gold etc. Not hard to do.
A pity Kay and Abbie probably died, while Marla’s family enjoys a blessed existence, fighting off people who are trying to steal their food. Good times....
Number one: if I had no food I would get my butt out and FIND some instead of sitting at home saying “oh well I can’t do anything about it now.” Especially if I had a hungry kid at home. The mom in this story probably is a liberal democrat who voted for barack.
Guns, food, water, and ammunition.
Great book and also made into a movie called, “The Road”. It’s by Cormac Mccarthy. It’s about a man and his son after huge disaster such as volcano covers the Country.
The DoJ is on a campaign to orchestrate civil unrest and race riots in the Hispanic community by making one claim after another there is widespread police misconduct towards Hispanics with racial profiling.
This is Hillary Clinton's plan from Bill Clinton's impeachment days. She had Janet Reno come up with a report on police misconduct and racial profiling as a way of ginning up civil unrest in the black community.
Why racial profiling? Because Bill Clinton was sued by the Reagan/Bush DoJ for ordering his state troopers to racial profile. Hillary's been on a vendetta ever since to pin racial profiling on the republicans.
She calls this plan “The Scorched Earth Policy”.
The plan comes directly from the Weather Underground.
Orchestrate civil unrest and race riots then carry out terrorist attacks as a way of overthrowing the govt. of the US.
