Preppers’ PING!!!
See post #15 this thread. I have encounter some of these types on FR and have warned of them.
Hat Tip to Old Sarge for the heads up.
I also posted this advice the other day, but it bears repeating:
If you watch this thread you will see that even on FR there are those who hate and scoff at those who would be prepared to take care of their own should a shtf event occur. They like to claim they are not worried,because nothing is going to happen, some even say things like if it happens I just rob the preppers for my needs. When called on their words they claim they are only joking, but in my experience people who try to mask their words by claiming that they are only joking are only trying to cover the slip of the real them that came out in their words.
When push comes to shove you would surprised what people who claim they don’t care will do to cling to life. One of the most dangerous groups that preppers will have to deal with are the anti-preppers, because they will not only covet what preppers have they will feel the need to punish preppers for having prepared and will feel morally justified in punishing preppers as in their twisted minds they will see the reason that the SHTF event occurred was because they dared prep for it. Their envy and indignation will be like that of leftist have for people who strikes out works hard and makes a good living or even gets well off and not sharing with them.

The cartoon I posted in Post 14 and the comments in post 15 demonstrate why I just cannot bring myself to open the subject of preps and defense with neighbors and acquaintances with whom we are friendly but not close. We know them to say hello to but have no idea about them, their attitudes, deeper loyalties, etc.
I know that in a SHTF catastrophe a group stands a better chance than a lone individual or a small family of 2 or 3. However we have no close friends among our neighbors or nearby with whom we can team and share confidential information.
I don't want to share prepper and defense info and make plans with a neighbor who is just a casual acquaintance only to find that he is not self reliant or has greater loyalty to an extended family or group that will show up on D-Day with no supplies but plenty of hungry kids and enough manpower to take what they want.
For that reason we keep our own confidences and plan on going it alone as long as possible. I figure that when the time comes people will show their true colors and we will decide who can be trusted, who is worth teaming with, and who is not.
Well the good news is that dude wouldn’t last one day running that plan. Guns and ammo are at or near the top of every prepper’s list, and they know how to use them. RIP, parasitic scumbag!
