  • So any decision on whether to start doing more prep videos, or have you decided to just do the incorporating method? The birdshot will do, but you should really have some 00 or 000 Buckshot and some Rifled Slugs. Those are the rounds I'd have, particularly if they are for self-defense. You might also check into a choke for your shotgun if you wanted to use it and your birdshot rounds for some hunting down the line. Just a thought. Sardines are good, but dont' focus on them exclusively.

  • I'll stick with news updates, but I'll incorporate preparation into them.

  • Dude,

    U need to find yourself a girlfriend, u are way to obsessed with stories about sex, prosititution, etc..

  • Even if I had 12 girls to bang, I would still talk about this stuff.

    I talk about the things that fascinate me.

  • Hey, it sounds like the wife should dump Matthew, he can't provide a place for her. Bad, bad situation. Don't know bout y'all but doesn't feel like things accelerating down faster? New currency,etc?

  • Yeah, first Russia, then CHina and the UN. These organizations can't shut up about the whole "world currency" thing.

  • Okay, so you haven't read the Patriot Act... yet. Read that and you'll come to understand the lost.

    The 2nd Amendment is under attack every day. Every day we don't know or even understand what laws and resoultions get passed in D.C.

    The income tax is a violation. 62% of Congress don't even pay their income tax, but the rest of the U.S.

  • For home defense, get 00 or 000 buckshot (2+3/4" shells or 3" shells, if your shotty is chambered for 3" shells). Keep some slugs handy in case you need the penetrating power. Shoot your shogun as much as you can afford and as your schedule allows. Regular shooting will properly break-in your gun and potential problems, both mechanical and marksmanship, can be identified and remedied. With regular use and cleaning after each range trip, you will have a firearm that you can trust with your life.

  • smokes are 12 bucks a pack of 25, about 11 bucks usd- i still haven't quit- cigs are insidious.

  • i hate 2 quote bible, collectivley we reap what we&others b4 us sowed, (greed/exploitation/apathy, if the situation escalates i suspect history will repeat itself, ffwd 10-20 yrs, division betwixt rich & poor will be greater, USA, who wouldnt be what it is/was without french involvement (american revolution), will repeat what happend in france1789-1799, same dynamic, jus diffrent expression, Ancien Régime- forgive my crude nutshell interpetation of events

  • There is a simple and viable way to address homelessness in America. Do you beleive in dreams? I do.  God showed me a simple way in which this problem can be easily resolved. It will take people working together to build temporary camps that can be make fully energy efficient. Like portable yurts where you are off the ground. Please refer to u tube vids under 'relocation platforms.' Please look for my video responce in the days to come.

  • The best part of this inflationary depression that we are in is that people are starting to wake the fuck up

  • To be shopping is to buy food.

    Is someone buying stuff?

  • About the ammo; anything that goes Bang! is better than nothing when it comes to self defense. As you know, 00BuckShot is best for self defense, but any shotgun shell will do tremendous damage. It might take 2 shots to drop someone drugged, but hey, you got 200 shells there, lol.

    And is not only about self defense anyway. A shotgun is like an on-demand food supplier. You run out of food, you grab your shotgun, you head for the woods, you find yourself something to shoot & you have food!

  • Yeah man, last month I was paying $5.05 on smokes. Now Im paying over $6 a pack here in Cleveland. It crazy. I finally will be able to quit, because I can not afford them.

    But you know what that means? It doesn't only means that it will be the same story with other millions of american smokers. But it also means that the gov & their taxes will drive the tobacco industry out of bussines. Yep, the sales are going to drop, many will quit cause they can afford it & there it goes thousans of jobs.

  • you know i started to listen to that i'm gonna go finish, thanks for reminding me
