I've got at least a little of everything on the list except Livestock, but the deer and doves and beavers and coyotes come by pretty often...
A dear old friend from long ago, a refugee from East Germany in the early fifties, said one item that he recommends to anyone with the survival mentality, that allowed him to provision his family in very hard times, was a MOPED - they typically go over 100 miles per gallon (he said if you stopped at every pump along your way, late at night, you could get half a cup of gas from nearly every nozzle - don't know if that is so nowadays), and when they run out, you could still pedal them, and they can carry two people in a pinch (normal sized), and they are not too heavy to lift over a fence, or carry up stairs to hide.0 -

store-bought first aid kits are practically useless.
You're better off stuffing a surplus ammo can (airtight box) with supplies purchased separately.0 -

Suntan lotion and dark glasses.

Don't know about you guys, but have a supply of dried corn and copper tubing. Barter, anyone? 0 -
quote:102. Common sense and decency.
Common sense is necessary at any time.
Common sense dictates, for example, that most of the items on the above list ought to be part of everybody's kit...
'Decency' will get you dead real fast if things go south. As long as one understands that one should be decent..till you cannot be...that will work well.0 -
in other words, the entire contents of your local Tractor Supply Co. store. sheesh. it probably is better to just not worry about it. 0 -
I think that there are worse things than death...like the abandonment of your values.

First and most important is an ability to remain calm... Then think are you ready and willing to kill in cold blood? If not forget all of the rest of this stuff and become sheeple. That is the only way you will remain alive at least for awhile.
Do what is nessary and remember what your doing is nessary.
Then get mad and stay mad.0 -
