Civilised Policing and the risk it poses to preppers

[Prepper1]

I agree with everybody.
Because everybody's right.

N.R. because of the warnings , which we should all be aware of anyway. but good for us to be reminded, just don't count your chickens thinking your safer in the country areas because crime in country areas is exploding with violent confrontation the norm now, so get prepared, don't rest on your country laurels...

HL regarding his thoughts on police numbers etc...That reminds me of something I heard from a u.s. prepper... "dont rely on the police to protect you, because if you do you'll be dead"
Now whilst the u.s. is more dangerous than here or so they say, its not far off in that if you expect to be protected by the police, you'll be in for a shock, we all know police are stretched and are after easy collars for their records,. So be careful.

SS in the regard that we should all be situationaly aware of our surroundings and our local area, local "villains" etc...
watching for unusual behavior from both the police and local nobby's.

And also nationally AND internationally because things that happen in foreign lands have the potential to impact on us and ours rapidly.
Keep your eye an the news from many different sources, sift through, prioritize threats etc..

We're living in a dangerous world and its not going to get all "kum bye ya" anytime soon.
