in a SHTF scenario cities are a waste. Too big, too open and too hard to defend. Small communities and a back to the land lifestyle. Would I help the Horde? Perhaps.. If they had skills, could contribute and didn't cause such a drain on the community.
In all Honesty, think Tri-States...
Perhaps it is. I am not sure, I just know the world is a scary place. And my grandma always told me the lord helps those who help themselves. Well, I don't want to be left out in the cold :)
um... I can grow stuff, animals like me, i can shoot, bandaids and catgut make up a big part of my 1st aid kit....
A lot of the more hardcore survivalists also advocate being in super shape, loosing all the excess weight etc.. Well.......
I am a statistic. I take BP meds, have a hard time...
you have lots of room to store food.. Got a bed right?
Ditch the frame, box springs and replace that with 5 gal buckets full of LTS type food/supplies and throw a piece of 3/4 plywood over it. Put your mattress on top. Now it's hidden, and nobodies the wiser.
Wait and watch the news. Flint Mi will be a dead town soon, full of the poor, hungry, sick and insane. Jobs are almost down to nothing, the state is broke, we are stuck with social programs that helps the smallest pocket of the population while the others slowly run Amok. We don't have enough...
I've seen this come up. I know I am a bit of a weirdo and I always think folks know what I'm talking about.. I did it again, somebody asked me about a zombie :)
Well, they don't have to be the night of the living dead type. They can be friends, families, neighbors. Are you ready to fend them...
what I do with sugar, rice, flour etc is I put it into the deep freezer for 2-3 days. For sure kills off any insect larva or eggs. Then I repack into mylar in buckets. How often you currently use flour sugar etc would determine if you use many smaller bags or one large one. Personally, a 5...
My shelter is in my basement. I have one room about 10x10 that has 1 brick wall and 3 plywood over 2x6.. No windows. This is also where I keep my long term food storage. Yesterday as a matter of fact we had a warning, with multiple funnel clouds and 1 confirmed tornado so me n the fam (3...
my x wife's ma (x mother in law) just about disowned her and still calls me son, my current wife's ma loves me too. No bad stories to tell really but I know plenty of MIL jokes :)
Thanks for the beer, but I's a drinking JD and JB tonight
Maybe so JC if I run out ;)
Note to self, stock up on...
I love it, but what I generally have in my Mossburg is regular ole 00 buckshot in 3" mags...
Baby bazooka is my 'pa's fav. He shoots a 10 gauge (that gun hurts to shoot)
I have 2 favorites... A Stevens 30.06 or my AK in 7.62x39 . I use my Stevens for 200-400 yard shots... The AK with a 5rd clip for less than 100yrd shots in brush. I like the rapid fire in case a shot deflects on branches twigs... the 30.06 just drops trees on me :(
