How many of you are "preppers"?

Post by 240witsr » Thu Feb 20, 2014 4:03 am

New here so forgive me if this has been asked or is in the wrong sections.

With the current political climate and ever increasing police state, how many of you are "preppers" for the ever so possible suspension of the Constitution and freedoms we enjoy? Or what do you prepare for and envision happening? I dont want anyone to get too deep into it and lose opsec, just curious if I am the only one.

After living in a "disarmed" country, reading/watching the daily news, and wondering why DHS needs 700 million rounds of ammo and hundreds of MRAPS.....I want to stock up and prep even more so.

Am i crazy? :shock:

Yes, absolutely! How could you not trust our ever-benevolent government and it's fearful, er, fearless, leaders?
IN GOD WE TRUST

Right after the last presidential election, when it became clear that the whole country was collectively slouching toward Gomorrah, I started storing up food, fuel, and other consumables. I do it poorly, but I'm getting there.

Even if there's no .gov breakdown, foreign attack, asteroid strike, solar emp, zombie outbreak, or captain trips, I'll be a little better prepared for the next big ice storm...

What is a "prepper"??
1 Corinthians 13:13

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
