    Default From Survival Podcasty...The Tide Is Turning...Prepping Is The New Norm

    This is a must read for anyone serious about prepping...two people I immediately thought of was The Frug and Marla too.

    The Tide is Turning – Prepping is Becoming Normal | The Survival Podcast


    I bookmarked the site to read more on it..loved the site...thought I'd share

    First paragraph sample and there is a link in the article to the FBI's report talked about below. Or guess I should say "supposed" report.

    I have received a ton of email about the new FBI program that lists “preppers” as potential terrorists. This is a real confirmed report and OathKeepers has obtained a copy of the actual document, you can see their report about it here. Of course the media is continuing to sensationalize us every chance they get, we are wholesale lumped in with every extremist group you can imagine despite the fact that the majority of us are just normal working folks who have decided to be prepared for some highly probable events like economic and natural disasters.
    Bank of America is THE godfather of Hell with Wells Fargo running neck and neck. When the world ends the only things that will be left are cockroaches, Walmart, Wells Fargo and Bank of America. Not necessarily in that order. The order remains to be seen.

    Yeah, I am sure we are on some list somewhere. DH is ex-military, we own guns, DH wrote the pamphlet for Oregon on an open-carry message board, DH is into 2nd amendment rights, we homeschool, and we are frugal and keep a nice sized pantry.
