Dear Friend:
I love my friends, but I will shoot you if I have to. I’m serious. Here’s why.
I tried to persuade you to prepare for what’s coming and, in the process, revealed that to you that I’m preparing. You realized that I have food, guns, etc., and ended up saying, half kidding but half serious, “I’ll come to your place when SHTF.”
No you won’t. I will shoot you. If you threaten me and my family, I will use force to defend against any threat. And showing up at my place hungry and unprepared is a threat to me. You will eat my food and use up my medical supplies, generator, firewood, etc. That’s less of these life-saving things for me and my family. That’s a threat.

DeleteWell...... Ok; That is the authors right, to be a selfish Bas** .Hears mine, My wife is an MD. We have the right not to treat you. We have the right not to trade with you. We have the right not to feed or help your family if you get sick or are injured. If you shoot at or kill people for seeking help. We the community at large have the duty to protect our family's by removing you as a danger to us. We have the right ,after such a notice, to consider you an enemy to be shot without warning, for being a selfish SOB that will shoot us in the back for a crust of bread or a bottle of fish MOX. As you have told us we are your enemy to be killed on sight by you , so you are now our enemy. You are not the only one with a gun, but you will be the one shunned by the community , to live or die without the help, support or protection of others. ---A long time ago I asked my drill Sargent why we needed the worst recruit in the platoon- He said "Ya gotta sleep sometime kid" ---Ray
ReplyDeleteDid you read the complete article?
DeleteYes I read it; and hundreds of others just like it. I call it the ME FIRST- YOU DIE prep mindset. This guy in fact WON'T help the needy. He might keep them as slaves or food (guys like him will be the first to eat people WTSHTF) But he will NEVER "help" anyone but himself. If he will kill his own kin or those he thinks "lesser" then he WILL kill me and mine the first time we have what he want's and won't give it over. Or if we refuse to acknowledge his "mastery" , or just "because". This is the same mindset that says "I will hide in my doombunker with my X-3000 sniper rifle and kill everyone I see" . They are people who are having a mental breakdown NOW before things get bad, and have decided that they can judge AND KILL people based solely on whether or not THEY LIKE THEM. That was the rant of a man who will do ANYTHING to "survive" To anyone. It is the rant of fear, fear bordering on panic. The kind of thing that allows a man to self justify any act no matter how evil, cruel or vile and say to himself " I did it for the children". That was written by someone who has put their entire life into "Doomsday" has planed for nothing else for years or decades and refuses to acknowledge his own mortality or the mortality of his "family"-and is slowly going crazy because of it. He is consumed by rage , fear and uncertainty, and a belief that he knows "the truth" and only his "truth" is reality. Its what happens when you trust yourself more than God.--- Yeh Brock I read it.--Ray
