Is anyone else starting to prep????

I know in an event like that, that losses are going to be inevitable(and anyone that thinks otherwise is blind), but Ill sure try my hardest to protect loved ones should the situation arise. Im by no means a paranoid prepper, but I do have some extra ammo and sutff here and there thatll get me by for a short while if need be. And living life like that surely isnt going to be some glorious fairytale, day in and day out is going to suck, but at the end of the day Im still alive and plugging away!
Either way, I think its almost irresponsible to not prep for ANY kind of event (mostly small scale shit like storms, riots etc) , especially if you have others to care for. Too many folks nowdays get complacent and never expect anything to go wrong. Kind of like today, its -10* here right now, I sure as hell wouldnt leave the house without enough clothing to keep me warm/alive if my vehicle were to break down.

Sell your Cobra for canned goods,c wire and livestock and maybe well actually become believers and follow you.:bored:

I prep for natural disaster, a weeks worth of water and 2 weeks worth of food, working on getting a generator but that is about it. I will get called in if there is a natural disaster that calls power so I made sure my wife and child would have heat, food, water, radio, and lights that they could use if I had to go for a few days.
I am currently prepping, -46 with a foot of blowing snow on the way.. Stocked up on the fire wood, got some groceries, made sure to have a little liquor and cigars. Got gas for the JD snow blower. Checking to see that all cracks in the doors are sealed. I lived through the Blizzards of 77-78. Birds are fed with seed and extra suit. The youth of this generation has never seen anything like the old school winter storms. They think 8 inches of snow and a little wind is something. I hope you all stay safe and warm. Go Colts!
I've go water and can goods that's it ...good for a few days after that it's just an open bar till the party's over lol
That's my plan as well:coolman:
Lol
When you save for retirement is that a form of prepping? When the United States Government stockpiles billions of rounds of ammo, builds FEMA camps, orders tons and tons of MREs and freeze dried food are they considered whacky preppers? Just curious.
I dabble in it. Nothing crazy. Its like insurance for me. Its extremely low probability my house will go up in flames, but you better bet I have insurance on it.
Same thing with prepping. I doubt anything is gonna happen, but I have some insurance against it. Being active duty Army now, I really dont do anything anymore. Soldiers will eat first.

No, liberals call that a responsible government that cares for the citizens' well being and security, it's only crazy if the citizens do it.

Remember the Roman Empire? It won't take the second coming for things to get crazy.
Why prep. There is food walking around all around you.
I always have at least 2 months of dry food and the ability to purify water in case of a hurricane. Not worried about economic or social collapse. Those just aren't likely senarios, but having lived through a few hurricanes, things can get dicey if it is bad enough.

Love all the baffoons who think the country will always be safe and cozy for them and nothing can ever happen. It's not a question of if it will ever happen, but when. All countries collapse eventually, and with the way this one has been operating financially and politically, i can absolutely see it happening sometime over the next few years.
That being said, I haven't done anything drastic to prep for a "doomsday", but I have made quite a few firearm purchases and am stocking up on ammo. Everything else can be easily obtainable if you have the means to protect yourself from others. Weapons will be a #1 necessity if the shit really does hit the fan.

When hurricane Sandy slammed into the East Coast several years ago I laughed at all the fools running around looking for flash lights and provisions at the very last second. After the storm rolled through there were hundreds of thousands of families with out the basics for many weeks. People picking through dumpsters looking for food to eat.

Most houses were flooded to the point where everything got destroyed. The laugh is on you:lol::lol:
those are easy enough to take off a dead person
My "preps" are more common sense versus paranoia based. I have a large amount of reloading supplies because I shoot IDPA and want to not go without the next time a panic happens. It's also way cheaper than buying ammo. Not much in the way of food or escape pods though.
