  If you are one mile away form the nuke you can survive, but you need to know what to do and be prepared with a survival kit. I have a small one with me all the time.

  was setting here flip thru the channels and came across this show on national goegraphic channel called the doomsday preppers and i was wondering if anyone watches the show and what do you think about what they are doing and what they think is gonna happen and what would you do and are you prepared???????????????

  I made one of my hobbies prepping. After what we've all seen happen to the economy, it might very soon collapse. With no government, there are no police. Grocery stores will close, as countless people try to get food before hiding in their house, scared of all the crime and disorder that will follow. The community will be thrown into chaos.  Having guns to secure your household, having food and water (not plumbing, coz noone will run the water treatment places), and having first aid supplies will be necessary for survival. That is why I prepare for the worst. I didn't believe that 2012 crap for 1 second, but problems in our government, nuclear missiles in north Korea, and Russians having EMP capability are real- life problems.

  They portray the dooms day preppers as willing to protect their property at any cost. As I sat watching the show. I thought how scared and sad their lives must be if their willing to kill their neighbors over a peanut butter sandwich and a glass of water. As a gun owner and a christian the choice for me would be to share my water and bread with all those that came by hungry and thirsty. I think hollywood would like us to believe that kaos would run rampant and shootings and looting would be the norm. If this were to happen I guess i'm gonna just look fondly at my life and get ready to meet some old friends in heaven for that never ending ride on my bike that we all have in our minds!!

  
  
  The problem with sharing food and water is that you don't have any after the grocery stores are bought or raided dry. Sadly, after a terrible disaster, like the collapse of the gov. or the dollar, an EMP, or nuclear war, anyone who cares about surviving would be willing to steal from you. Though sharing is a respectable choice, it may just not be safe, as people would be trying to kill anyone for one more meal. It's like the hunger games. Kill or be killed. I am a Christian too, and I own my fair share of guns  but I believe in self defense; if the need be, and I and my family were in danger, I would go to the necessary lengths to keep us safe. I am a prepper, too. It's a hobby.
