Re: The right kit for a Bug Out Bag
No not at all, different views and opinions are what makes everything interesting
But IMO this thread is seriously pushing the boundaries of sanity.
There are meds for this kind of paranoia.
This is the 21st century, there really is no place to run to and hide anymore
its fine to be realistic, but to be a doomsday, Armageddon advocate.......... common, seriously?
If thats the case then what a kak way to live, the only gear you require is a bottle of sleeping tabs
if you have spare cash to burn on this kind of crap, you would be better served putting it into a retirement annuity, life insurance, dread cover,income replacement and education funding. Hell pump it into your bond for that matter, before wasting your money on a bomb shelter or what was it, pieces of jewelry to "barter with" LOL
Fanatics the world over are scary people !

Re: The right kit for a Bug Out Bag
Yeti, I'm sure there were a lot of people who thought like you do in places like Syria, libya, egypt, bosnia, and many others. Do your self a favour and just read a bit about a chap called selco. Selco talks about the thouusands of people who were one day normal office workers/ business owners/doctors/ lawyers etc who were trying to escape on foot, It can and does happen all over the world, Being rounded up like cattle and executed or simply dying of exposure or starvation all the time.

For bartering I am all for cheap whiskey. People will always want to drink. Couple of cases is a good option.

Re: The right kit for a Bug Out Bag
The state the world is currently in makes the odds even higher that something may happen. Anything from civil breakdown to natural disasters. Its been said before. Would you rather be prepared for something and nothing happens or not be prepared and SHTF.
I'm not paranoid, i'm prepared.

Re: The right kit for a Bug Out Bag
Preperation is not a reason to be called insane. It's not only the "Apocolypse" that people prepare for but what about Civil unrest, prolonged essential service breakdown, Failure of the power grid or water line? There are a number of things that can lead to chaos very quickly with little or no warning. Having a plan, a means and the foresite to prepare might keep you alive.

Re: The right kit for a Bug Out Bag
And that reasoning makes it clear why you are "PDH" and not "PHD" !
Guys lighten up, I really believe in the following philosophy, "do and believe in whatever you want as long as it doesn't effect me or mine negatively"
PS: dont forget to stock up on the Hornady Zombie ammo, you never know......

Re: The right kit for a Bug Out Bag
Dude, getting personal without good reason and going off half cocked is going to make you unpopular.
You've no doubt seen how quickly people fall apart without commercial structures in place? Think about how fast things would fall apart without electricity or internet for a month?
