    Default Survival and Preparations official thread

    I may seem like the half empty glass sort of dude...but i have been prepping for the coming SHTF scenario for several years now. Am I crazy? Anybody else? The members on this forum are smart folks, anybody with me, or am i all alone.

    Not as prepared as I'd like to be. I would like to have 6 months food stores AND a gun, but alas Guns are illegal here.

    Financially secure.

    I'm good for 30 days in some ways, but I'm just hoping for the Rapture and Judgement. IF offended, insert final days event of your faith at word Rapture. Have we settled on a PL HF comms scheme in the rare case that I am wrong?

    Considering that my long ago ex-girlfriend came by, risking her marriage, if not her children, to settle up and come clean on some things lately. Then got me to consider going back to church, which I did, I think something is really up. She's very, very, smart and she would not have done that had she not felt its the end.

    2.6 people per square mile here in the US, if not more. Where do you run to that will not be occupied? How do you get past jammed highways, and local roadblocks, legal or otherwise? Our major highways have a camera system every three miles or less, no easy way to sneak out.

    Make up some solar powered LED lighting folks, because if we're still here, we'll need it.

    God please forgive me for the time wasted on entertainment lasers, there is/was so much more I could have done. Although the 50-60 hour weeks at the lab helped many people, I could have done better.

    The beast is the internet, and I'm pretty sure of that!

    When it comes to survival I have no morals. I'm not worried.

    Another glass half empty guy here, dunno whats gonna happen, but my gut is tellin me its gonna happen in my lifetime (kinda hope my gut is wrong). So I prep. A lot. and sometimes wonder about my sanity. and if nothing happens then I wasted time and money, but better safe than sorry.

    guns and ammo are the only thing that are going to matter... then you can "acquire" whatever else you need as you go along... since, you know, you got the guns
