http://video.foxnews.com/v/421563543...#sp=show-clips Just saw this on Fox news. This is my #1 fear for this country. 20 billion to fix the grid against this kind of an attack and we have known about it for better then 50 years and we still havent spent a penny on making it happen. If that isnt reason enough for you to make sure you are getting you and your family ready for this kind of a scenario then I dont know what is. This would only be the beginning. If the lights went out, The Economy would colapse, millions would die. Make sure your not one of them.
Get a plan together.
Stock up on emergency supplies food water
Learn to protect yourself and your loved ones
Know where to go and what to do.
Ask yourself if the power went out tomorrow are you ready? Would you know where your next meal is coming from? Do you have a plan together to secure yourself and family from the tremendous hardship that could last 3 weeks to a year? If you answered no to any of those questions then youll probably be one of the millions who will not make it. I have these discussions with my family. They used to think I was a bit crazy and Paranoid. Then Sept 11th happened and that really opened up their eyes. Now my wife, who has never shot a gun before owns 3 and shoots every Tuesday. Spends 100s of dollars on ammo so she can be prepared if the day ever came. She has taken just about every firearm class offered. She also works with me on our preparedness plan. She used to be one of those that said " ohh the government wouldnt let that happen to us" Then Katrina hit. That really showed how much our Government would help.
This isnt fear mongering. This is a real scenario that could happen tomorrow. I believe thats why Going Home has such a following. It could realistically happen tomorrow.
I have a friend who works for DHS. I asked him in all the scenarios they have prepared for which one would be the most realistic. Guess what he said...... Lights going out. They already know this and are preparing for it. But they arnt preparing us for it. We are the masters of our own domain, Protectors of our own castle, keepers of our own future. The ones who dont rely on government services and are ready for anything to happen are the ones who will survive situations like this.
I also asked him what is the one main piece of advice you can give the average person. He stated for the first 72 hours is when most of the mayhem will take place. Those 72 hours are the lockdown hours he stated. That is when most people will be in panic mode and not caring about human life, That is when most people will die. He said if there is one thing I can tell someone is to stay inside and lock down everything for the first 72 hours. Your chances for survival are immensely improved if you can sustain yourself for the first 72 hours to 2 weeks. He stated that has already been proven in history with some events of the past and by looking at other countries who went through Trauma where lawlessness flourished. He also stated that well organized communities or groups would have a greater chance at survival as they can run protection details and strength is in numbers.
So what are you going to do to prepare? Is it on your mind all day every day? Are you constantly looking for ways to improve your survival chances? I am. I believe we all have a chance if we choose to stack the deck in our favor.
We cant prepare for everything I know this. Some things have to be left to faith and luck. But if we can all do one thing each day to prepare ourselves we increase our odds greatly.
Some may think Im a bit crazy but hopefully most see the logic in my post. Its those that choose to lie to themselves and believe it wont happen in our lifetime that will suffer the most. Hate to see that happen to anyone.
Stay Safe my friends.
