I never said it was impossible. It is possible that we will be invaded by aliens at some point, even Stephen Hawking has made the case that it is possible and would be disastrous for us. The question is, is it likely enough to make specific plans for the event? Not at all
A shitload of guns and ammo can't hurt.

wow, I was telling a buddy about the real big dude on the show and googled him and ran across this. They say he was declared mentally instable and unarmed. Bad thing was he seemed, at least to me, to be one of the more down to earth of the people on the show.
There was a news article or internal memo being passed around a while back on the web about "domestic terrorists" and anyone with more than a few weeks of supplies was considered one. Something about hoarding essential supplies.
Not sure of the truthfulness on it but it does make you think. I don't think id take part in the show if offered. If those folks weren't targets before they sure as hell are now. Both to the govt if they are watching and people who would be looking for supplies.

Yeah, the real ones never take show deals.

That's what I'm thinking. I saw a couple of clips online and if SHTF, these people will be swarmed on by everybody that knows of their supplies.

Gotta remember, Wal-mart and most other grocery stores only carry 1-2 days of inventory.
Yep and when the roads shut down and the trucks stop running (high gas an issue here too) the shelves will bare down to the painted metal in less than a week.
Can you imagine what the Wal-marts will look like if a SHTF scenario happens?
Scary.

That is why I'll be going to Central Market instead. Nothing goes better with the end of the world than some certified organic tortilla chips and peach salsa!!

What's your beef with NPR, because their listeners are typically more informed than others?

That thought is actually scary. Some hippy at the end of the world eating tofu and whey grass

You know that and I know that, but all the idiots don't and they will all be Leroy Jenkins'ing there thinking about all the shit they can loot, Katrina-style.
