Doomsday preppers TV show

[kmitch200]

Just watched the Nat Geo show clearing out the DVR. (mainly due to twyacht mentioning it in the Dilbert thread)
Interesting show. Some of the planning was really creative.

Here's a tip to those that want to stay "under the radar" - - -
DON'T GIVE PERMISSION TO USE YOUR FULL NAME AND CITY TO A TV SHOW!!

In about 5 minutes of checking I was looking at a Google sat. view and street view of both the families homes in the Phx area.

How's that for staying under the radar?

Yeah when I sold FQ the airgun, he wanted to know if I'd take a personal check.   I said sure, I knew where he lived and sent him a Google Earth picture of his house.  Scary huh?

As long as they weren't decoy houses.  Then again, people can be stupid for fame.

We have access to darn near the same technology as the CIA.
Some of the interception and code breaking that the NSA does is beyond us, but other than that the "ordinary guy" can pretty much set up his own intelligence operation.

Yah...I'm reviving an old thread... saving E-ink.
The new batch of Doomsday Preppers is out - hate to say it but National Geographic has altered the audio (show you my surprised face now?)

Had a husband and wife in Salt Lake City with a pair of 10/22's shooing at their bug out house (shack) because according to supra-genius hubby this rifle is the only rifle people will carry in a survival situation so he is building his defenses around a .22

NatGeo has the audio of approximately a .357 magnum or maybe a 30-.06 from the 10/22 every time they shot.

BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM go the 10/22's

How about the libs up in the Northeast that had no weapons. Saying that they would invite in aggressors and charm them into liking them.

The rest of us call those "Massholes" or "off site storage".

Funny that is exactly how I look at them too.  I was at a buddy's house for a BBQ this summer and the subject of prepping came up, a Mormon couple showed up and started talking politics, anyway he said he had a pretty good stash as did my buddy.  Then I dropped the bomb of "How are you going to keep it?" 

You'll loan me a gun and some ammo won't you.

Ya, sure...   Buy your own dammit!  He's a good guy just has some priorities screwed up.

most of these people have more money than brains. Like I always say, watch and keep what you can use and leave the rest.
