Hey guys, I thought you would like this article...kind of a manifesto for preppers and survivalists.

Quote:Modern Survivalism is more than just prepping. When most people think of prepping they think about food storage, guns and ammo and bugout bags. While all these things are important aspects of modern survivalism, they don’t define it. Modern Survivalism is a way of life. It is a decision that we’ve made to remove ourselves from the shackles of dependency that has been used to brainwash American society for over a hundred years. It’s about getting back to basics, re-learning the skills that kept our ancestors alive while responsibly taking advantage of technological advancements to continually improve our lives and the lives of others.



Modern Survivalists understand the fragility of the world we live in. They understand that our food, water and power supplies are a delicate web that can be disrupted without warning. We prepare to not only survive without these systems, but to continue our lives and thrive whether the conveniences are there or not. Modern Survivalists understand that there are thousands of threats to our way of life every day, both big and small and actively work to mitigate those threats in any way we can.
