Gemans being told to stock up on food and water!!

RE: Gemans being told to stock up on food and water!!
Panic among the population???

Seems the terror attacks should have already created that condition!

These preps were a requirement in every German home right up to the end of the Cold War. They are not a "new concept" and were government required for 30 years.

Rather than panic the reestablishment of these requirements should provide a soothing bit of comfort.

After all, they are only promoting what everyone on this forum advocates as a necessity of life.

I wonder how many will actually do that, many many Germans live in apartments, will a family of four store the best part of 60 two litre bottles of water, find the space etc.

One of the aspects of German society that has historically been different from many others is that if they pass the law the Germans will follow it, even if it means stashing a water bladder under the bed and stacking canned goods, laying plywood on top and sleeping on it.

Just think, a government entity that REQUIRES each homeowner to have preps on hand. Their presence does not raise questions, suggest radical thoughts, or label one as a nut job, and they might just charge a fine if you do not have them. You do not have to hide them under the cabinets, in the outdoor shed or inside the wall cavity. No spouse to "get on board", kids to worry over spilling the beans or in-laws to give you a sideways look and rant.

It the law.

You should be hoping GB does the same.

100% agree with you Morty.

Most Germans are culturally automated to respect and follow rules and regulations to the letter.

Such directives are historic in that country, but reiteration following the recent terror attacks there is intended to install a sense of calm and trust that the authorities are focussed on a resolution.
