KissMy puckers up>
Wrong - I grew up in the woods & know how to thrive when everything around me is coming apart. All 4 of my grand parents lived off the land until their death. Grandpa just passed days after Obama took office (he told me on his death bed that was the first time he did not vote democrat in his life). He hunted fished & farmed into the last year of his 90 year life. He was upset after he got a computer, satellite INTERNET & TV where he learned about the NWO & Marxism sweeping the country & I think that is what killed him. BTW none of my grand parents ever drew Social Security or Mediscare.
In the country we are our own police, fire, rescue, medical & support system. There is a never ending stream of young meth heads trolling the rural farms trying to steal everything in sight. They burn down many buildings with their portable meth labs. We have all defended against & driven off many well armed criminal gangs when we were way out numbered. I have watched many you scared wabbits scamper off.

Well your an interesting sort Kiss, I actually side with your boy scout mentality of self sufficency being always prepared, and could probably scrape by doing the Jerimiah Johnson thing for a while as well.....
(imaging myself with my dog blue.........)
and we have community ems, fire, ad naseum out here as well. But there's one element that perhaps your Gramps got , and didn't
fully impart to you , although maybe you just haven't expanded on his Marxist statement as yet....
in a national emergency
(to be defined by our governance , inclusive of it's start, end, and levels of severity) those community bloody do-gooders are all automatically drafted to the governance's marching orders.
what this means for the
'haves' like you is, your resources will quite likley be commondeered as needed for the
'have nots' , and most likely by the alpha male who is loudest and dumbest when your local good 'ol boys come a 'knockin....
