threats
A threat is a communication of intent to inflict harm or loss on another person. Intimidation is widely observed in animal behavior (particularly in a ritualized form) chiefly in order to avoid the unnecessary physical violence that can lead to physical damage or the death of both conflicting parties. A threat is considered an act of coercion.
Some of the more common types of threats forbidden by law are those made with an intent to obtain a monetary advantage or to compel a person to act against their will. In most US states, it is an offense to threaten to (1) use a deadly weapon on another person; (2) injure another's person or property; or (3) injure another's reputation.

I have a female friend who is a marathoner and often runs on paths alongside roadways and bridges. We were talking today about her being aware of possible threats and the fact that she had recently taken a basic self-defense class. She is attractive and runs almost every day in her city, often...

This is a slow read, in order to really get the info out of it, you need to click the links. For instance, in ONE (only 1) example, P19 they ask "Have you done any of these things to make your family safer? It quickly goes from a questionnaire...
What animal encounters have you or someone close had that made you need/want a firearm? I've had a couple I'd like to share.
Freaking scariest was working in a basement crawlspace of a friend in NC and encountering a water moccasin striking at my headlamp/helmet out of the dark. I don't think...
I keep reading on how EMP is gonna fry everything that uses electricity and so on, but doing some research beyond wikipedia and looking at US Govt information, and older records of EMP tests.... it strikes me as odd that it seems to be only the "preppers" segment who are claiming that EMP events...
It occurred to me that I should prioritize my budget and planning on whats most likely to happen. I recognize that there are local hazards that need consideration. However I was searching on google and couldn't find a link containing information about any study or government agency that...
I'm certain this is also tied into her recently announced plans to increase gun control (but only for law abiding citizens). Now she gets to use "victim" status as part of her rationale for bans and limitations.
They are NOT planning for anything gradual. This is going to be a full court press...
Take a Moment to Celebrate, But There is Still More Work to be Done
Dear 2nd Amendment Loving American,
I want to personally thank you -- and our entire grassroots army -- for taking action over the past several days.
Because of your assistance, every single gun control amendment failed...
I'm a bit of a wiser man than to make public threats, but I'm also a bit surprised at this case:

With social media, and the abundance of opinions(o_O)that are as thin as the screen...
A bit of reading required here. But well worth it. Much of it can be considered "Problem Two" - what to do AFTER your physical preps are in place.
Ok you've already got the nine B's (Berkey (i.e. water), beans, bullets, bandaids, batteries, bullion, books, barter, beliefs) then it's time to...
