I think you knew the answer before you said it! anyone who is living or has lived in a city knows about "watching their back", anyone who dosent know what this means will survive about 5 minutes post shtf.

Just because he's a law abiding civil servant, doesnt mean he's not a prepper on the qt....

thats got you going...

just cos a CS might be a prepper dosent mean he's "streetwise" P1, the 2 don't necessarily go together, they should but not everyone is that clued up.

I know, I know, I was trying to make people look at things that look ordinary, might not necessarily be so...
I'm trying to turn things around in some posts if I can, to make people "think outside the box" as they say.
Hopefully it'll be of some benefit!!

[Sunna]

the same can be said for city kids , they could be preppers or into survival ray and bear are very popular

[Prepper1]

Exactly. just because somebody looks like the grey man doesnt mean they are.
Underestimating people could get you killed.
I mean B.P. looks all cuddly... BUT.....

I've been trying to make people look at things differently for years, not just on the bright side but on the negative side too, but I just get slagged off for my pains! nobody understands me

city kids become city men keeping their skill into adult life.

[Prepper1]

Everybodys got a skill set.
Some just dont know what it is yet.
It may take shtf to bring out certain individuals skill sets.

For example me, I dont fit into modern society well, I'm very uncomfortable in it.
Much happier sat in a tree in the woods....
