RE: More bad and anti survivalist news in the US
these kinds of things seem to be happening more often in the States these days.
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

RE: More bad and anti survivalist news in the US
Thats why I don't tell anybody I'm a prepper.
I just don't want to be associated with this kind of stuff.
Its only the states so far...lets hope some nutter doesn't go barmy over here and say their a prepper/survivalist.
God alone knows the real reason these things are happening more frequently, could just be human nature or planned to control guns, preppers etc...
Keep your eyes open and remember your opsec "tell nobody" now is not the time to tell people your a prepper or a survivalist trust me on that, these story's in the papers seep into their minds and all they remember is "prepper,survivalist,guns,bad"
That and the fact you have food, possibly a means of defense is not something you waqnt thm remembering when shtf.
I tried to be normal once.... Worst two minutes of my life...

OPSEC must be your mantra, or like WW2 "Walls have Ears", tell no one-not even an extended family member.as far as this story goes i think he's more of a "mental" case than a prepper, he just happens to be a Vietnam veteran with guns.

thats why you shouldnt tell your neighbours about your preps!  when their starving after TSHTF they will then remember you've got food stores.

RE: More bad and anti survivalist news in the US
Maybe its a case of these events are not happening more often, maybe we are simply in a trend that is making preppers/survivalists newsworthy,.. because I cant see any reason why these events would be increasing,...... but with the gun control stories and the popular trend towards prepping in the US,... this kind of crime suddenly becomes more interesting to news outlays and those that read/watch
A major part of survival is invisibility.
