I can't be an alarmist or a scaredy cat...
but, that's cool that guys are???
the same people who were saying Iran and Israel were going to fight have been saying it for 4-5 years now......
ummm, I just don't really see how we can stop anything, any of this, if it is going to happen, it will happen.
In other words, our fate is already sealed.
In terms of, if a nation were to launch a nuke at us, we would all probably die. you can post all you want, but you will still die. all of you.

Last time I checked,
isn't it the new official job for the media to spread fear among the nation?
This is exactly what's happening.
Granted, we're in an economic emergency but really, come on. Instead of us being afraid let's be strong, fearless and stick together.
k? k.

Hate the word "Bubba". To me it denotes ignorance. I don't think it is ignorant to be prepared.

We have been getting 20 cases of food a couple of times a week.
Rounds in the 1000's for each type of gun.
Every kind of gun in multiples except for a 50 cal. snipper.
I am going to try and have one by April.

This is far right fringe fear mongering, nothing more, and it's typical of Glenn Beck. T.

I hope you all have been paying for everything with cash and not credit or debit cards. Using cash helps you keep your purchases PRIVATE, using debit or credit cards puts you on a written record of exactly what your purchases are.
Thats one of the advantages to the PTB for all the grocery discount cards and so on, besides the obvious advantage to the stores to help keep track of their inventory, etc. Helps them know what their customers want, heh, heh. What their customers are buying.
Easier to come get without a lot of searching, if you know what I mean.
Also, I probably can't find it right now, but there are already laws on the books authorizing government to take ANYTHING they want from you in case of natural disasters, war on mainland, civil unrest, martial law, or some type of health catastrophe, such as bird flu.
Also, a law out there against HOARDING of food, more than a month's supply, I believe. All set up against the time THEY need it.

Your right on most counts. CASH IS KING!
The food for stocking up is a store that does not have those damn cards.
Buying cases of canned goods is something we have always done when they run a good sale for brand name at .50cent each. At the bigger stores right now the same stuff runs 1.65 each.
As far as taking it from me they have two choices, pay me in gold at 10 times the replacement cost, or pry from my dead cold hands.....
