and where do you get your food from, your water? do you know anything about food growing, crop rotation, even what seed to use? what wood burn best? what wood is best for woodworking?
can you make your own clothes, your own footwear?
its all very well whooping it up but at some point reality will bite, what then?
I doubt you'll even get out of the city alive, not with all those low lifes and street gangs and drug dealers!

We'll load up the van with food and tools and a few weapons and head on out of the city, then begin learning all the necessary skills for when the food eventually runs out..-

doing anything AFTER TSHTF is too late, far too late.

Right, for example I used to like Bear Grylls survival shows for entertainment, but now can't bear to watch because he's so gungho and sloppy, leaping around at breakneck speed without any planning, constantly looking round to see if he's being pursued by imaginary enemies!
He sets a terrible example and I can't believe they made him Head Scout.

he's the LAST person I want near me in an emergency, he is an accident waiting to happen, besides he's a showman or rather SHOW OFF, he'll be dead in a heartbeat with his dashing about throwing himself down waterfalls.

Incidentally this group temporarily set up in a church..



And speaking of religion we could say that the best survivalists are Christians because the purpose of human life on earth is to lock onto Jesus before we die so that our souls automatically home in on him like guided missiles when our bodies die.
I'm a Christian (insert smug emoticon here)..

So we have an interloper larping as a prepper and believer to discredit both? Great. I can't even get them to ask about physics, let alone prophecy.
