Preppers: The Real Story of the Ant and the Grasshopper

[CaptainBerz]

Why do people have to define what they are, and why can't they just do what they do and not have to name everything in life and have to be a part of a group? It is a sickness, being afraid to be not apart of a group..

I just saw a commercial for a show called Doomsday Preppers and it showed a dude shooting guns and showing his food storage cache ect... Im not sure what to think about this show.

I have watched the ants that live on my property and the reality of the ant and the grasshopper story is the ants tear the grasshopper apart and eat him.

Prepper is the kinder, gentler version of the old term 'survivalist'.

@NeverEnuffAmmo Thanks for the comment Matt. I really dig the way you've kept to an inclusive entry friendly approach to the lifestyle.

Great vid, I too have read that version of the fable, I honestly can't remember which came first. When I decided to do the video I looked up the original Aesop version from around 500 BCE and I kept coming up with the version I found (plus one that was identical but the grasshopper was a Cicada). I think the story has been published or re-told at lest 100 times, it became very popular in 16th century france. I agree the end of the story is also very educational. Thanks 4 the vid

It sounds much nicer to say the police shot and killed a prepper today in a house filled with beans and semi automatic weapons. The police were called to the house by a neighbor who noticed a ron paul sticker on his ford truck bumper.The man would not let police in his home and when asked if he was a prepper said I'm a survivalist dammit.

He could have had a million of those things and they hurt said officer friendly who remarked still redfaced that he hadn't been so humiliated since the av club gave him a swirlie in high school. There eas nothing to do but fire tear gas and concussion grenades into the house. The man came out of the house screaming what are you fucking retardit, I'll pay your fucking fishing license.

@redtony58 mayonaisse in one arm and a live lobster in the other. I thought the lobster was a firearm said tac ops officer gf Christian who shot a mortar through the

prepper from the safety of his armored personnel carrier.The last thing the prepper suspect, who we will now call a survivalist said was holy fuck. Let's hope he is at peace with his god. Next, what to do if accosted in the supermaket by a man while trying to buy flouride free toothpaste.

@redtony58 Obviously, this story bears no resemblance to any real people, we all know that would go down very differently. The moral to this story nis don't re-write fables while I'm sitting in the theater with a half hour to go before the movie starts.
