Self Defense Preparations
I keep reading about all of the preparations being undertaken by some preppers, in terms of fighting off the ravages of society.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words; so allow the one below to speak my language:
Are you really going to allow your own humanity to take a serious hit; by turning away some child that’s hungry. Even more, are you going to shoot some desperate father or mother
that’s begging for your help?

Told Ya’ It Would Happen
The Dragon Finally Emerges:
China sends Patrol Boats into Japanese waters in order to maintain alleged territorial rights.
In an article earlier this year I explained the ramifications of how China is slowly reclaiming its ancient territories. Among the disputed islands, Japan, Taiwan, Thailand, and the Philippines; Island countries that
China claims as its own.
The questions is; will China use military force to reclaim these territories?

Swine Flu Making A Killer Comeback:
“Pigs can be infected by swine flu, human flu and avian flu, making them a perfect mixing pot for different versions of the virus to swap genes and potentially become transmissible across species. In 2009, an outbreak of swine flu caused by the H1N1 virus led to a pandemic, killing between 151,700 and 575,400 people across the globe in a year”

Global Volcano Activity Increases:
Volcanic activity has increased in the last few months to the point that its becoming scary, to say the least. But just when it seems like things are cooling down, another volcano makes an appearance. But not just any volcano, this time its one of the monsters that wiped out an entire race of people in 1620.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Over the years I have been warning that anyone of these events could spiral out of control, and perhaps lead to a global crisis. Each of the situations described above came from todays news headlines. I have watched the Chinese military apparatus begin to rearm and refit its forces. I’ve posted articles explaining that the Chinese were not just “playing catch up” with the rest of the world, but rather; they are getting ready to increase their territorial rights for ONE SIMPLE REASON----OIL!
China uses more oil than any other country in the world; and their slowly running out….

Kill The Television
The BEST-WORST thing that was ever invented is the television set. It came to us purely as a means to communicate news and important information. But over the years it has become a hardcore method that is being used to both sway our opinion, sell soap, and coerce political viewpoints.
BUT what is this fancy expensive piece of energy hogging junk NOT telling us…?
Its NOT telling us about the miserable human suffering occurring right this moment in North Korea.
Its NOT explaining away the plight of the real unemployed people that have run out of benefits.
It’s NOT telling us how miserable the senior citizens are being treated by the Social Security Administration.
It’s NOT explaining why the administration donated $680,000,000.00 (Million) to Pakistan, and then demand that American farmers pay for the water to irrigate crops that we eat.
It’s NOT explaining why the administration allows illegals to get a driver license by hiring an interpreter, yet Americans have to show umpteen documents to prove residency.
I haven't watched television in several months, and it feels like my brain is coming back to normal again. I get all of my news, entertainment, and political commentary from the internet and some of my friends. The good thing is that I get to choose what I am interested in, and NOT have to be subjected to umpteen dozen commercials trying to sell me cars, insurance, erection pills, and other useless crap that costs to much, does nothing, and I never heard about before. Ahhh—Feels like a cool drop of water against my cheek to be rid of the television…
Now that the mind control device is no longer part of my daily routine; I can see with a modicum of clarity the things that were a little fuzzy before:
REALITY IN YER’ FACE!
Everything IS NOT alight out there in America! There are 45-Million families on food stamps,
90% of the seniors on Social Security are half starved, cant pay their bills, and are living way below the poverty level.
Children in the schools supported by OUR tax dollars are being spoon-fed the AMERICAN LIE that has them growing into better trained consumers with no political views, no public opinion, and no sense of morality or religion.
Parents that don’t know how to discipline their kids, are allowing the kids to discipline them. The kids are taught this in the schools.
Police departments view citizens in their jurisdiction as crooks that haven't been caught yet.
Public servants haven't been doing their jobs, yet their lazy sorry ass is still occupying the seat in their public office.
Preachers are preaching a liquefied version of the Holy Bible because their afraid to preach the gospel.
Radical Muslims are allowed to enter the USA.
Radicals from Mexico piss on the US Flag while standing on the streets of AMERICA!
Supreme Court Justices cant EVER make up their mind about ANYTHING because they haven't walked a mile in our shoes.
Oil prices are slowly dropping, but the price of gasoline is still climbing.
Food prices are shooting through the roof, yet farmers are going bankrupt.
There’s no such thing as free water anymore. The gov’ment wants to control all of it—everywhere.
Credit ratings are going down, yet the cost of credit is going up.
Banks are doubling their fees for less service than what was offered five years ago.
Gun control efforts are climbing, yet crime is at an all time high.
America locks up more people that the combined population of Sweden and Denmark.
NOW FOR THE REALLY BAD NEWS
The Crap Is Going To Hit The Fan Soon…!
There have been more tornadoes, hurricanes, tsunamis, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, landslides, droughts, floods, and other sundry natural disasters than EVER before recorded in America’s history. But, very few people are getting their collective asses ready to weather these storms. Many go about their lives from day to day, just existing from one reality show to the next, one paycheck to the next. Its almost like they are being brainwashed to be good American consumers…
WHAT IS ALL OF THIS LEADING TO…?
The BAD TIMES are just around the corner, and at our present rate of forward momentum, it won’t be long before the crap arrives on ALL of our doorsteps without much warning…!
Stockpile food, water, medical supplies, weapons, ammunition, fuels, radios, and barter materials like your life depends on it—because it does! Find some friends to help you out, watch your back, and get to know them like their blood related to you. Keep your eyes on the horizon, because whatever is coming, will be here real freaking soon, and it’s going to be a bitch from hell when it arrives.
THE ANSWERS YOU ARE LOOKING FOR
First you have to understand the threats that we are facing today. Every person on this planet will be affected to some degree, in one way or another. I have tried to warn of these threats for several years. Luckily many are listening to my ideas, thoughts, and suggestions. Small groups are popping-up everywhere, and lone wolf survivalists are coming out of the woodwork to get their families ready. But we still have some time to get ready for whatever the hell is bouncing around out there…
All this talk of war with the military is scary crap, and while many groups are forming to circumvent this possibility; I must once again state the OBVIOUS that is most evident:
The United States Government does NOT have the capacity, resources, manpower, or audacity to imprison millions of people.(Should I Say That Again?)
They haven't the bed space, or enough guards to lock everyone of us inside CAMP FEMA.
The first moment that Camp FEMA goes into full swing, will lead to an instant CIVIL WAR, and much blood shed on both sides.
Lets NOT forget that American sons and daughters are serving in the U.S. Military, and many of them have been raised by people JUST LIKE US! Its highly unlikely that these soldiers will follow unconstitutional orders that would have them fighting their neighbors and kinfolk.
My Own Rendition Of Get Righteous
If I were the Head Mother Trucker In Charge, here’s my rendition of CHANGE:
Lock down the southern borders with military troops that have permission to use deadly force. Put every illegal on notice that they have 72-Hours to vacate the country, or face being part of the chain-gangs that cleans up the highways. This would also halt the flow of drugs into America.
Prohibit consumer commodity imports from China for a period of 90-days. China allows a small percentage of American imports, yet our administration has killed American manufacturing capacity, or willingness, due to cheap Asian imports. Put Americans back to work making American products.
Put every elected official on notice that they better get off their sorry ass and do the job that they were hired to do, or face expulsion from office. Enough of these greedy fame sucking snobs squeezing every dime out of their office that they can, yet failing their constituents in every instance.
Free National Health care for everyone in the country, including dental and vision. Make America healthy again.
Flat Rate 15% tax rate for everyone, instead of the mess called the IRS we see today.
Get the U.S. budget under control by hiring one thousand small business owners that know how to budget and forecast revenues. Get a handle on that mess muy pronto…
Bring American troops back home, and only send them to foreign countries when needed. Enough with all the damned wars and conflicts.
Stop giving away trillions in subsidies to foreign governments that hate America. let em’ grown corn, or starve. America is the ONLY nation that feeds its enemies. Time to put that crap to rest!
Come down HARD on Neo-Nazis’, Klan, Skin Heads, Black Panthers, La Razza, and any other racist group that threatens women, children and old folks. They gotta be stomped out of existence!
Institute an educational panel that oversees what these rat-fink socialist school teachers and college professors are teaching out children. We pay OUR money to support these schools, and its time OUR kids learn the THREE R’s, and not be indoctrinated by these charlatans standing at the head of the classroom.
AND FINALLY
Coerce every citizen, of every state in the country, to conduct a mass protest against their own state government whenever unjust or unconstitutional legislation is introduced; such as gun control, abortion, health care, taxation, education, civil rights, and other controlling laws that inhibit or restricts free speech, free thought, free movement, or clarity of life.

What’s In Your Kit
The Bug Out Bag is constantly evolving.
I try to keep mine lightweight and easy to hump, yet carry enough food and gear to make it through a 3-week tactical evasion.
What’s in your kit…?

The Warning & Message
Throughout the years I have come to understand a simple principle when it comes to survivalism: Some of us are sent THE MESSAGE, while others are sent THE WARNING.
For me, this began while I was still a young child. It began subtly, and at first I didn’t understand it. I took years, until my teens, for me to realize that I was endowed with a message, and a warning. It changed my life then, and continues to impact it even today.
The Message:
It’s pretty simple. When one become aware of what is going on in the world, and understands the nature of how life will unfold in the coming years; some of us began preparations that might somehow allow us to make peace within ourselves, and perhaps even began the slow and tedious process of stockpiling some very basic essential supplies.
· Stockpiles essential supplies
· Completes basic threat research
· Talks to others on the internet for information exchange
· Devotes several hours each day to internet discussion groups
· Understands that something might happen
· Builds a basic bug out plan
· Enrolls in a self-defense class
· Talks on the internet about survivalism
· Is prepared to Bug Out when SHTF
· Maintains an adequate Bug Out Bag
The Warning:
This is much more serious than having heard the message. A person that hears the warning is alarmed to the point that immediate action is required. It’s a process which demands that there isn’t enough time in a day, and that there isn’t enough money in the bank to cover all the associated costs.
· Stockpiles several years’ worth of food supplies
· Completes exhaustive risk analysis
· Establishes a network with others for information exchange
· Devotes several hours each day towards fulfillment of stockpile acquisition
· Knows that something will happen
· Builds an advance evacuation plan
· Enrolls in a self-defense, first aid, and wilderness survival class
· Talks to neighbors about survivalism
· Is prepared to Bug Out before SHTF
· Maintains several advance Bug Out Bags strategically cached in different areas
The term “Prepper” has become repugnant to me. It denotes something that is far removed from survivalism. A prepper collects gear, and hopes nothing happens; while a survivalist stockpiles gear and knows that something will happen.

Survival Underground: Are you skeered
It’s uncanny the number of people and groups that have headed underground to bury themselves from the mainstream survival movement; due to some false assumption that Big Brother is watching them, and awaiting the opportunity to swoop in and snatch them from their beds.
Why On Earth Would They Do That?
Lets get something straight right now: They do not have the manpower, resources, or funding, to locate, identify, and catalog every survivalist or group operating the the country today—we number something along the lines of 45-MILLION PEOPLE.
Where is This All Coming From?
It is the result of sensationalism at the hands of a select group of paranoid delusionals that need to create controversy and strife in order to further perpetuate their own image of self-importance—because they have nothing else to offer…
These are the people that generally talk-the-talk, but have no clue how to walk-the-walk; the kind that thrives under the spotlights of attention, and that is all that they have in their repertoire of skills and experiences—lip service.
Real survivalists don’t give a rats ass about what the feds are doing. They go about the business of survival with a determined outlook, a straight-hitting reality based plan that takes into account all of the possibilities, and no amount of sensationalism will deter them from the plans that they have made. It’s the people that don’t have a plan that will suffer.

Attorney General Eric Holder 1995: We Must ‘Brainwash’ People Against Guns
November elections are coming around fast. Remember this when you head into the voting booth. It’s guys like Eric Holder, and those that appoint them—that should dictate who you cast your vote for. Don’t complain about things that you don’t like, if you are not willing to step up to the plate and do something about them. Your apathy negates your right to whine about it later.

Alaska 2012: Polar shift (Repost From February 2012)
This is a repost of an article that I wrote in February 2012. It’s rather uncanny how much of what what explored in this article has come to fruition two years later.
In a previous article I discussed the consequence of another earthquake in Alaska, such as occurred in 1964. This article will deal with a more frightening scenario—Pole Shift.
In this hypotheses, it is summarized by several factors leading to a shifting in the poles. However; there is considerable speculation as to what might actually occur in this event.
Generally there are two distinct types of pole shifts that could occur:
The geophysical pole shift scenario; whereupon the north and south poles change relative position, and the geomagnetic pole shift—a scenario that has the inner (magnetic core) of the earth shifting due to some outside interference.
Geophysical Pole Shifting was the basis for the blockbuster movie 2012; In the movie, the earth’s physical poles shifted due to an interaction with a rogue planet passing through our solar system. This scenario is embraced by many ardent followers of the Planet-X scenario. Among the followers are the Zeta’s. An internet based survival group that been on the scene for twenty or more years.
In their Troubled Times forum, Anchorage Alaska is described as;
“Anchorage is dealt several blows during the shift, as it lies along a coastline, is near a chain of volcanoes, and borders the Pacific where subduction of plates will occur. During the week of rotation stoppage, the water normally pooled at the equator due to the effect of rotation will drift toward the poles, equalizing. Thus, the tides will be higher. At the shift, the volcanoes to the west will explode spewing ash over the nearby vicinity, which will become upwind to Anchorage to some degree due to the prevailing westerly winds which will still pull the ash toward Anchorage. Sloshing water, already higher than normal along the coast, will rise to the tops of the buildings in the city. After the shift, however, the ocean fishing, and the familiarity of the people with this activity, should prove a good lifestyle. Survivors will need to become accustomed to a very warmer climate, as the new Anchorage will be close to the new equator. “
“Alaska will fare well during the coming geological changes for a number of reasons. Where it is now in a cold climate, it will move to a very temperate location. The volcanic eruptions anticipated where Alaska's active volcanoes now exist should blow out across the water, not inland, under the influence of the new prevailing westerly winds, so the land should be spared. And since it is scarcely populated, there will not be the problem of masses of starving humans to contend with, which can create destructive riots. In selecting locations in Alaska, one should consider the possibility of tidal waves along the coast, but the key consideration should be the volcanoes, which are already active, and which will increase their activity to the point of exploding during the pole shift.
The Alaskan Pipeline will inevitably be fractures along its course during the pole shift and will thus drain dry. What oil does not soak into the ground will be lit and burned during the lightning storms that occur during the pole shift, a burning that might start at only one place but will spark burning along the entire course. Oil that does not drain out of the pipeline will burn at the ends, creating a torch that may burn for months.”
The effects of a geophysical pole shift would include the following catastrophes:
· Mega-Earthquakes
· Tsunamis
· Large scale Volcanic eruptions
· Cyclonic winds
· Massive Inland flooding
· Meteor showers
· Wild fires
· Tectonic Plate shift
· Ocean sloshing
· Geophysical position change
This particular scenario is horrific in itself. The basis for this hypotheses has been argued by several learned scholars, and the potentialities discussed over the years by think tanks and various government agencies. While none have publically announced that this scenario is credible, none have denounced it either.
Currently there are reams of pages that point to the likelihood of this scenario occurring in the early part of December 2012. Chief among them are the ancient Mayans predictions, Edward Cayce, Jean Dixon, Nostradamus, and others who have published prophecies regarding this. Additionally the Holy Bible also predicts a similar fate—though no exact date is given therein.
If a number of volcanoes were to erupt either at the same time, or in sequence throughout the course of a week; the result would lead to a “Nuclear Winter” scenario. The introduction of massive ash clouds into the upper atmosphere would block out the sunlight, and temperatures would drop significantly. A sudden drop in temperatures would thereby have cataclysmic effects on the entire globe.
In a geomagnetic pole shit, the magnetic poles would change polarity, and many scientists feel that this scenario is more plausible, and more likely to occur. Experts believe that the present magnetic field changes are a prelude to such a pole shift scenario.
One cannot also discount the recognized association between earthquakes and the movement of the planets. Tidal like effects drive the oceans tides, and is thought to also affect wildlife, as well as human moods and behaviors.
The Dark Rift is the galactic alignment of the December solstice sun with the Galactic equator. This alignment occurs as a result of the precession of the equinoxes. This Galactic Alignment occurs only once every 26,000 years, and was what the ancient Maya were pointing to with the 2012 end-date of their Long Count calendar. Many people strongly believe that the galactic alignment will signal the end of the world scenarios.
No matter what anyone believes, the fact is that we are witnessing first hand a rapid and progressive change in our world. Winter storms have been more severe than before, flooding has plagued many of the Midwest states, while drought has affected others.
Marine sea life have mysteriously beached themselves on the shorelines of our coasts, baffling the scientific community. Black silt that is normally found on the ocean floor, has turned up in the Gulf of Mexico, and nobody can explain how it got there, or even why. Earthquakes, tsunamis, and volcanic activity has increased dramatically over the last few years.
All of these occurrences correspond to the fact that planet earth is presently undergoing severe changes. The future outcome is as of yet unpredictable, but many people around the world are convinced that in 2012 mankind will undergo a catastrophic event that will rapidly change our planet, and perhaps erase a large percentage of the human population.
Historically it has been proven that our ancestors endured a similar fate during their time on this small planet. Considering the fact that most of the deserts around the world were once lush tropical continents, and the unmitigated fact that fossilized fish have been found in our southern deserts, and also in the Hindu Kusch mountains—would substantiate that earth’s history is filled with pole shift theories.

Hamas Terrorist Attack Video
Over the past four days, life has become unbearable for the people of southern Israel. With over 300 rockets exploding in Israeli territory, their days were reduced to keeping within 15 seconds of a bomb shelter
Video of rocket attacks by Palestinian terrorists. Actual footage from people in their homes as the rockets are raining down into their neighborhood. So far there have been 200 rockets fired into Israel.
Tell me again how these bastards in Gaza can claim that they are freedom fighters.

The Bug Out Vehicle
One of the primary element of my own family survival plan is the ability to quickly get away in the event something happens.
Here in Alaska we are faced with several real potentials for disasters. All of our plans detail our little family being able to stop whatever we are doing, and jump into the main BOV that awaits us in the driveway.
I have outfitted with old Suburban 4x4 with a brand new 5.7L 350hp engine, reworked all of the electronics, and outfitted the truck with programmable scanner, mobile HAM/Commercial radio, and a standard Citizen’s Band radio.
Double stuffed winter tires, and extra lights keep us on the road during those long and dark winter nights when seeing 50 yards up the road is almost impossible without High Intensity Discharge (HID) spotlights. They are tinted in blue in order to cut through the snow.
Inside the 4x4 we keep extra a clothing, wool blankets, tools, and our personal survival gear. Theirs is 1-month worth of food in back, as well as a full blow EMT kit for medical emergencies. Extra fuel cans, motor oil and fluids round out the inventory.
The roads in Alaska are ALWAYS glazed over with ice. Unlike the lower-48 states where the snowplows keep the roads clean; here in Alaska we have so much snow, that it is always ice covered and dangerous. Whiteouts occur with little or no warning, and oftentimes the weather will change in a heartbeat. Those who venture out into the remote areas have to keep basic survival supplies in the car, or they could potentially die within a few miles of the nearest gas station. Most small (mom & pop) gas stations close a little after dark-thirty.
The radios utilized by The Alaska Watchmen Group are Yeasu FT1900R 55-Watt mobile HAM radio that have the MARS/CAP option installed. The radio is capable of receiving and transmitting on the 136 MHz – 174 MHz band. In a SHTF event, a 100-Watt power amplifier cross-linked to a repeater system allows the group to maintain constant radio communications with each team.

Survival Situational Awareness: Victims Fight Back Against Despotic Regime
It’s been all over the news for months; Syrian rebel forces are fighting to overthrow the country’s despotic tyrant. Normal (everyday) people are getting fed-up with being controlled by petty dictators who rule with an iron fist.
But the situation in Syria goes far beyond what is being reported by the talking-heads of news networks: China, Russia, Iran, and Lebanon all have a vested interests in the events occurring in Syria today.
RUSSIA: The Soviet Union is the leading supplier of arms, munitions, and combat vehicles for the Bashar Assad’s regime. The Central Committee also views Syria as their last military presence in the mid-east region. One of their prime objectives for supporting the Assad regime is due largely to the Soviet’s long standing defiance against NATO’s missile shield.
Throughout the last century, Russia has been arming, training, and brokering deals with America’s hostile enemies. They are the worlds largest supporter of global terrorism. The cold war might have ended among the major news networks, but the truth is most evident since Vladimir Putin began restructuring of the Soviet Military, as well as its foreign policies.
Even though it may seem like “All Is Quiet On the Western Front”; make no mistake about it—Russia is actively at the forefront of maintaining its desire to make the word communist. Russia Delivers Missile System To China
In the coming months we will see where this situation leads us. I am of the opinion that the events in Syria are the beginning of something terrible; a creature that has been asleep for decades is now only just arising.

Dooms Day Events From Around The World
2012 came in like a hungry lion looking for its next meal. Here are some of the latest data-streams from around the globe—some of which have not happened in my lifetime…
An unusually rare winter storm has taken countless lives all across Europe:
- The Balkans – 37 Dead
- Serbia – 16 Dead
- Bosnia – 11 Dead
- Slovakia – 5 Dead
- Montenegro – 4 Dead
- Croatia – 3 Dead
- Macedonia – 2 Dead
- Albania – 1 Dead
- Ukraine – 135 Dead
- Poland – 82 Dead
- Russia – 46 Dead
- Czech Republic – 25 Dead
- Lithuania – 24 Dead
- Romania – 57 Dead
- Bulgaria – 32 Dead
- France – 12 Dead
Earthquakes:
- Magnitude 3.0 - OFFSHORE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
- Magnitude 2.8 - OFFSHORE NORTHERN CALIFORNIA
- Magnitude 2.5 - CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
- Magnitude 4.6 - ALASKA PENINSULA
Volcanic Eruptions:
- Alaska Cleveland Volcano
- Volcano Activity in Philippines on Wednesday, 08 February, 2012 at 04:44 (04:44 AM)
- Volcano Activity in Cameroon on Monday, 06 February, 2012 at 19:10 (07:10 PM)
- Volcano Activity in Indonesia on Monday, 06 February, 2012 at 13:59 (01:59 PM)
Near Earth Objects Data Table:
- Name: 2008QY
- Approach Date: 14th February 2012
- Estimated Diameter: 540 Meters – 1.2 Kilometers (591 Yards)
- Relative Velocity: 22.9 Meters Per Second – 80,244 Kilometers Per Hour (49862 MPH)
The above NEO (Near Earth Object) is one of approximately 3000 that are being tracked by NASA. It has been estimated that there are an additional 30,000 objects streaming through our galaxy that aren’t being tracked or monitored. Should one object impact another, the collision could send a stadium size object screaming towards our planet.
The Question: Would the US Government alert the civilian population that a chunk of rock the size of the super dome was screaming towards us at 50,000 miles per hour; or would they remain quiet about this event in order to forestall any mass panic…?
