I have no idea what you mean by that, but these people just repeat what they have heard or read or found on the internet, they don't actually DO any of it they just talk about it.

Ah, I think I know the one. He ain't no prepper, unless preparing to fall down dead is prepping???

There are many ways to prep.
Prepping with the express intention of raiding other preppers for their suppies might be parasitic, but its a valid prepping mind set. Just as valid as prepping to to supply food for the table by hunting.
Just sayin'

Prepping = Preparing Preparing for difficult times ahead
For some, preparing the hardware and resources maps of the locations of future food and provision stocks, falls within prepping maybe?

If raiders are preppers they'll certainly have difficult times ahead if they pitch up at my BOL!!!
I don't agree raiders are preppers, I think they are conniving, opportunist scum!
