    The recent rumblings

    Have you been hearing about the issues recently arising? (Not talking political)

    Does it seem to have an ominous ring?

    Is it just me or do you think things are growing to a edge?

    What are your thoughts?

    Be decisive. Right or Wrong, make a decision. The road of life is paved with flat squirrels who could not make a decision.

    what is exactly happening that doesn't feed back to a political connection?

    right now the only thing that can't be blamed on Obammy is the weather - and if there's a natural disaster - the almost guaranteed recovery disaster will be his fault ....

    I assume, you are referring to the various earthquakes around the world??

    A few big ones around the ring of fire, lots of small ones in and around Yellowstone, yesterday a small one on the New Madrid Fault.

    When I say nothing political I mean election waves.

    Another city in America is going bankrupt.
    Education
    Minor issues blowing big who uses what bathroom
    The value of the dollar
    Terrorism
    The tromping of our constitution and no one standing up for it

    Add to that:
    Total disarray of the world economy
    Russia flexing its muscle
    NK popping nukes and missles like they have all kinds on money
    China building islands and arming them
    Iran being Iran
    And crazy weather around different parts of the country.

    I dunno about the weather but yes I see what you mean.

    races/ethnicities and "genders" being pitted against each other intentionally by the media.
    Large scare tactics over things our government has supposedly known about for years.
    More and more gun issues being brought to light only to distract us from other policies being passed.

    I've told the wife, we need to get moved, and get settled before things get bad. Sadly I think that may only leave us with less than a year.

    Sad, or happy?
    Angry, or calm?
    Just black and white words on a screen.
    Not like a conversation in person, with facial expressions, body language, tone of voice.

    Still, we here pretty much slide along without issues.
    Imagine how well we could get along in person.

    Or, we would just think each other is a bunch of assholes

    This country is being systematically destroyed from all directions.
    It is purposeful, and deliberate.
    Our economy, infrastructure, all levels of govt below fed, the family, the morals, all of it.

    When maobama said he planned to fundamentally change america, he meant it, in every way possible.
    No, he did not start it. But he has very well played his part.

    Already, we are very little like the America the world has known for generations. But, we are still on the path, not yet at the destination.

    Chief, you are being dreadfully optimistic, if the creeped-out feeling I've had for the past couple of months is any indicator.
    Its a MOVE YOUR ASS GET IT IN GEAR SH*T IS GONNA HAPPEN SOON thing. I stand about a 1/3 chance of getting all done that I have in mind to do done.

    It is my unfortunate guess that the next mass shooting will finally be the one BHO signs martial law into effect on. And that will be it. As to whether the folks that either stopped prepping owing to tension fatigue will be able to snap back into it, couldn't say. I don't have the maths as to increase of folks dropping off-the-grid altogether, and, Nephew Norbert's smug, silent confidence to the contrary, largely neither does the gummint.

    Gunfixr, I have to disagree. We arrived at the destination back in late middle January of 2009, with a career politician profaning a Bible with his touch and committing serial perjury at the same time. Anyone that doubts that the past seven years since then haven't been the first of Reagan's predicted "thousand years of darkness" IMO is, at the very best, taking the short side of a very, very long bet. We DO have a chance to step back out of this, I think... But it will be messy.

    Welcome to the Oath Keepers. I swore an oath to defend my country from all threats, foreign and domestic. That's an oath I'll take to my grave if need be. Even upon retiring they don't relieve me of that oath.
