When the government outlaws French Vanilla Creamer, only outlaws will have French Vanilla Creamer.
paranoia strikes deep⌠into your life it will creepâŚ
Stephen Stills
these idiots never think it thru⌠you can NOT stockpile enough supplies to get you thru a complete societal collapse⌠my relatives who live thru the Great Depression were always keeping a supply of food and stuff to get them thru the next Great Depression⌠the most important thing on their list?
toilet paperâŚ
live off the land? way harder than you thinkâŚjust because you go off and kill a deer once or twice a year isnât a skill that will help you survive⌠its hard work skinning and butchering⌠think about having to do it every 2 or 3 days⌠on top of that you have to go away from your living area⌠killing things close to home (easy) just means that game will avoid your area⌠no you have to hike and track it down and THEN drag it back⌠and again, as you branch out the game moves awayâŚ
how much ammo can you actually stockpile? when/if industry collapses do think ammo makers are immune?
worst of all no French Vanilla CreamerâŚ
And they are going to get the freedom of the town medal . ( sarcasm off ) .
Man what the fuck do these people smoke?
Funny how the pampered squatter with the vividest fantasy of toughness and the profoundest sense of deep entitlement, is also the first to complain of homesickness. Itâs looking more and more like a Carson book tour than like anything meaningful or relevant.
The âpreppersâ always make the same fundamental mistakes.
First, out of all the possible disaster scenarios, they choose one or two for which to prepare, for no particular reason. What would get you through one kind of disaster might not do squat under other conditions.
Second, they usually make the assumption that if they have enough âstuffâ stashed to get them through 8-12 months, theyâll be home-free. Iâve got bad news for them. Theyâre just going to have to face the same conditions as the rest of us, but weâll have had a one-year head start.
Finally, many of them are hopelessly confused about basic economics. Gold? Useless. Itâs valuable only if you can convince another idiot that it is.
Thanks for taking that bullet for us, Lauren. Jesus H Christ.
One question: were those typos his or yours?
Finicum writes that to stop a government takeover, the townspeople
end up hanging one government official - Ann Rafferty- a mayor who had
âall the charm and good looks of a movie starâ and âa figure that filled
out her business skirts nicely.â
Her ânot prettyâ and ânot quickâ execution is rationalized because
âif a man cannot own and control his own property, he does not have
freedom.â
So we are to conclude that despite his virile interest in her âcharm and good looksâ and her full figure (i.e. she was pretty hot), he willingly joined in the lynch mob and caused her to die slowly and painfully becauseâŚFreedumb.
That is so twisted. These people are sick little freaks.
Being prepped for a government invasion is as useful as being prepped for an invasion from Mars or from the Flying Spaghetti Monster.
If you are so paranoid and unrealistic that you fear not only the unknown but also the make believe, then there isnât enough prepping to secure you because they also fear that their prep will be absconded. There is no prep for that and redundant prepping is just prepping and obviously the government is coming to take it all so more guns, thatâs basically all that they can do, except ânowâ the gov is coming for them too.
Itâs pretty much over already if you just put a little thought into it.
In order to not come off as complete idiots, the freedom freeloaders have to keep upping the ante and they âneedâ the government to do what they fear to justify their paranoia. IOW, they create their own problems, then fear those problems, then live their life based on that unrealistic fear.
Secretly, I think that everyone of these clowns wants to fight their government and wants to be seen as some modern day Lone Ranger. They are pathetic and nothing more than spoiled moochers that donât want to pay their fair share and threaten to blow the place up if they are made to.
Guns, God and Gold, the trilogy of life that will sustain you but you had best prepare for the afterlife where shit gets really real, really fast.
These people have no faith in America, the Constitution, our great institutions, or the American People
The paranoia of these people is mind blowing. Pay your taxes and fees and call it a day. The other stuff is standard right wing crap.
If nukes or EMPs went off survival would be possible but the world would be horrible. Also, gold and silver have no value either outside of what people grant it.
You left out the part where they thanked Olâ Dad for stockpiling boner pills because it turns out the government doesnât want you to know theyâre as antibiotic as penicillin.
He wasnât satisfied writing disaster porn, so he had to go out and role-play it. His kink is not OK.
Heâs finally getting to live the fantasy heâs only been able to write about so far!
___ Since only Twinkies can survive the coming apocalypseâŚsend lots of Twinkies!__ The Winded Warriors of Bundyland, OR.
âThe best way to stop a bad guy with snacks is a good guy with snacks.â
If the quotes are a fair sample of his prose, the blurb isnât quite right.
Bundy blurbs the novel and calls it âa book you do not want to read, but should.â
â⌠A book you do not want to read, but should and canât.â
Fixed it for you, LaVoy.
The reviews are in: âThis is a book youâll want to read with one hand, while the other gently strokes the barrel of your favorite rifle.â - Guns and Ammo
âvery real conservative nightmares.â
That is somewhat of a self-nullifying sentence fragment⌠not exactly an oxymoron, but the subtle suggestion that nightmares are real is part of the real problem.
Chicken Little, in the form of right wing media, has these people by the amygdalas.
I blame FOX and Rush and Bleck, et al, for it, they are all desperate to help the dreams of their listeners and viewers turn to nightmares.
Without that sort of influence, these Cowboy novelists would be writing about wrangling horses and shooting bad guys, not surviving some cosmic apocalypse.
The whole Bozo Brigade is discovering very quickly that survival isnât as much fun as they thought it would be.
