There is something which has concerned me for a long time now.
Before getting into the substance of this article I would like to state, for the record, that I am in no way a racist, sexist, bigot, or encouraging of anything which promotes the suppression of others. We are all human beings with varying degrees of potential. But we are different, and there exists the probability of human conflict within that difference. Political correctness cannot deny the obvious attributes of the natural world. We are not all the same. We are different. Our hopes and dreams for one another should be the same though. That is where we find our commonality and where the quest for love and peace should both begin and end.
The interest I have in writing an article such as this one has always been tempered by my desire to avoid attention and involvement in such sociological hot-topics. Whether its professional career concerns or fears of upsetting friends and family, I have prevented myself from writing many of the things which have haunted my thoughts and dreams.
It should be noted that my natural cultural alignment would be along the conservative vein. This does not mean that I consider those who practice a non-conservative lifestyle distasteful. It simply means this is how I chose to live my own life. I have no desire to suppress or change the opinions and lifestyles of non-conservatives. My list of friends and associates span all demographics of race, gender, sexual orientation, and spiritual beliefs. I hope and dream the best for all and encourage the differences which exist within the human race.
But there is something which has concerned me for a long time now.
Imagine the world as a pie. At one time those of Caucasian and European descent had a huge piece of that pie, while the non-Caucasian and non-European peoples were given the parts of the pie that the Caucasians and Europeans didn’t want or need. Colonialism is historical and well documented. Those of non-Caucasian and non-European descent fought over the scraps amongst themselves, and even encouraged and supported the slave trade amongst their own peoples in order to get a bigger piece of the pie.
Going back further in world history we can see that other non-Caucasian and non-European peoples practiced the same methods of cultural and sociological consolidation and control against others. Atrocities against those who are different are not a creation of Caucasians and Europeans, regardless of what myths the liberal-left promotes. Such things are a human creation and span the length of world history and all peoples.
All human beings have the potential to commit true acts of horror, both on small and large scales.
We live in a world today where the pie is still the same size but the demands and needs of all peoples have increased. As such, the pendulum has swung the other way and the pieces allocated for the Caucasians and Europeans have been getting smaller. But if we consider colonialism to be wrong we must consider reverse colonialism to be equally as wrong. Two wrongs do not make a right, and suppressing a specific human demographic, no matter its orientation or sociological and geographical placement, is wrong and should be avoided.
At 18 years old I sat in a military recruiter’s office and was told that the Canadian Forces were only accepting women and those of a visible minority. All through my teenage years I was fascinated by having a career in the navy and working on submarines. On my night stand sat a well-worn copy of Tom Clancy’s The Hunt for Red October. These dreams of adventure under the high seas ended in that recruiter’s office. It hurt to be told that I did not qualify for something because I was white and male. It had nothing to do with what my real capabilities were.
This was my first taste of the further suppression that was to come.
Instead of stopping when the pie was cut into equal pieces, the liberal-left agenda continued to force further suppression upon Caucasian males in western culture. The legal system was used against us and entertainment began to promote a dumbed down and idiotic image of the white male. We were told that this was the right thing to do and to disagree was to be a racist, a bigot, or a sexist. We were shamed into shutting up and accepting our own suppression and humiliation.
It was as if our own culture turned against us and embraced everything that was engineered to minimize and transform our male conservative identity. We were constantly told that it was wrong not to agree with the non-conservative lifestyles of others. We needed to accept these views without complaint. Never was it suggested that we could still be white male conservatives without suppressing those non-conservatives and radical feminists which were springing up around us with increasing frequency.
Most just shrugged and accepted that the suppression of white male conservatism was the new normal. Some became introvert and kept their opinions to their selves in order to avoid the thought police. But the liberal-left kept coming for more. It appeared that no amount of suppression was enough to satisfy those of the extreme liberal-left who considered white males to be a disease.
When extreme feminism began to call for the enslavement and forced sterilization of males, the turnaround was written. When the over-sexualization of our sisters, daughters and wives was promoted as healthy feminism, the turnaround was written. When media began to subtly accept and encourage pedophilia, the turnaround was written. When discussions about murdering children up to two years of age under the pretext of a mother’s right to choose began, the turnaround was written. When massive migration was expanded and began to flood our homelands with those who would want to suppress us further, the turnaround was written.
This brings me to what has concerned me for a long time.
The suppression of conservative culture, of which there is both a male and female component, has been building a pressure within western civilization. Often I have said in private to family and close friends that the suppressing liberal-left better not hope that conservative Caucasian Europeans decide to get angry and fight back. The patience which this demographic has shown in the face of such aggressive suppression is a testament to the strength and willingness to avoid war and future horrors. At no time has the propaganda and cultural engineering been thoroughly effective at conditioning the conservative masses. This demographic has presented great virtue and acceptance as the suppression increased and their piece of the pie became smaller and smaller.
The election of Donald Trump in the United States represents the open expression of resistance to the continuation of this suppression. This demographic has spoken loud and clear that they do not wish to see any further suppression and loss of the values which they cherish and practice. But the liberal-left will not give up and continue to promote acts of violence against the conservative Caucasian and European identity.
Since the election there have been death threats against Trump and threats of violence and murder against white people. Even personalities of so-called repute, such as actors, professors and CEO’s have called for the murder of white people.
Twitter has become drenched in the symbolic blood of white people. The excuse is that white people voted for Trump. Never is it mentioned that African Americans, Hispanics, and even Muslims voted for Trump as well. These are people that recognize that the pie needs to be equally shared in order to avoid violence and future human horrors.
If the liberal-left continues to increase suppression and take more from the conservative demographic, than the turnarounds will likely move past the simple resistance of an election and more fundamental action will be taken. Suppressing a whole demographic and using the tools of media and education to convince that demographic that the suppression does not exist will only build massive resentment and the backlash will be sudden and dramatic.
The conservative majority at this point is willing to let all live in peace without suppression and move past the skewed false social justice landscape which has existed up to now. But what concerns me is that the liberal-left is not willing to share the pie, or work towards growing it larger for the benefit of all, and the conservative demographic will feel cornered and at risk of losing everything which they value and cherish.
Faced with such odds the backlash could turn violent.
All throughout the western world this demographic is beginning to take back control of its civilization. From the BREXIT vote to the election of Trump, and other populist movements throughout Europe, the conservative majority, composed of all races, sexes, and religions, is beginning to move in unison. The disorganized masses are organizing and all the tools at its disposal will be used to halt the liberal-left offensive.
Failing to recognize its position and agree to a peaceful and balanced ceasefire, from which acceptance of all and the end of suppression can take hold, the liberal-left could find itself on the wrong end of a cultural genocide.
This potential genocide will not be the same as previous genocides. The infrastructure and methods to achieve such distasteful results have been built into the fabric of our society. The methods which the liberal-left has used against the conservative demographic can be turned against then with savage ferocity. The ongoing talk regarding internment camps for illegal criminals and Islamic terrorists can be expanded to include those of the liberal-left demographic.
For the record, this is not what I wish to see happen to all the wonderful and varied people which share this world. It would be an epic failure of the responsibility of all of us if our civilization was pushed to such an end. But the risk is real. When the existence of whole demographics is threatened, mass violence and savagery can take hold.
The unreasonable response from the liberal-left over the election of Trump is an example of this irrationality. Like in Rwanda and the former Yugoslavia, when the divisions are clearly drawn and people feel that threatened, the turnaround can be sudden and shocking.
It has concerned me for a long time that the liberal-left will keep coming for more and more. It has concerned me for a long time that nothing will be enough for them. It has concerned me for a long time that the liberal-left will create the very environment which will cause their own genocide as people are left with no choice but to fight for their right to exist.
It is my heartfelt wish that I am wrong and everyone comes to their senses before the slightest spark ignites the whole farm. Let’s work together to make the pie larger. – JC
The mistake the left makes is that the pie is a zero sum game with the pie never increasing in size. They wish to take what they have not earned, the right wishes to keep increasing the size of the pie for all. It is sad but true that both cannot have it their way in these politically correct times. I fully expect a conflict brought on by the left. I also know a lot of tough SOB’s that will not go quietly into the night!
Conflict is part of the human condition.
In the story of Pandora’s Box (jar, actually) all the miseries of mankind are let loose but for one- Hope.
Hope was not a blessing to the Greeks. It sapped people of the will to act, to take their lives into their own hands and to do what was necessary, what was required. We have too long sat back and hoped that at some point those who attacked our civilization, our social fabric, our very families in their drive for power would eventually be sated, that normalcy would return if we just accepted enough insanity. Hope for a better future has delivered us a Malthusian Dystopia. Conflict is inevitable and neither side has any reason to expect a compromise because on too many issues that each holds as sacred, no compromise is possible.
Interesting. One thing I wonder about constantly, is, as we transition back to a work based society, what are we going to do with all the useless eaters? I’m not talking about the old or infirmed, I’m looking specifically at all the non skilled, no english imports we brought in to lug a loaded EBT card into walmart. I’m looking at the classroom of ain’t gonna du nuffins in the teacher video above. We’ve been incentivizing them to breed like rabbits. They have. Now what? The US is one thing. What about Lagos? Or Mexico City? 15-20 million people living on top of each other, dependant on magic for their daily bread. Canada elected the fembot T2 at exactly the wrong time. Revenge of the nerds was fun while it lasted, but the world is about to become a serious place. I’ve thought for awhile, no place I would rather be than the USA, but even here, what do we do with them? Good piece.
I’ve thought about this quite a bit myself. The fact is that everything which allowed this situation to “mature” was built on a false unsustainable foundation and that foundation has been eroding for sometime. The useless eaters are going to do one of two things. They either become productive members of society or they will die. What else is there?
This is one reason why I’m so down on the human race as a whole. We never seem to meet in the middle. The pendulum always swings too far left then too far right then too far left then too far right. I’m absolutely convinced that the biggest reason for this is the evil inflicted upon us by an exceedingly small minority of greedy fucks and their funny money. These assholes are like kids who toss a handful of red ants into a black ant nest just to laugh at and enjoy the suffering that unfolds before their eyes. The difference between the kids and the bankers is that the bankers figured out a way to profit from it all and they truly get off on the suffering and conflict their funny money causes all of us.
The trouble with ending the fed is that about half of us (the working half) will prosper enormously and the other half (the useless eaters) will perish as a result. Sound, value based money is a natural limiter to preventing the system from getting so out of balance and regulates the pendulum from swinging too far in either direction. It levels the playing field rewarding those who work hard and punishing the lazy.
We humans pride ourselves on continual improvement and innovation at individual, family and business levels but as a whole the human race seems to be constantly regressing. That we can’t figure it out and do better is just too sad for words. We’re clever enough to recognize a Fourth Turning pattern yet helpless to avoid repeating it forever.
It’s easier to be jealous of what someone else has than it is to work hard and get your own.
And jealousy rarely or never produces a good outcome for anyone.
It’s not jealousies that motivates the left it’s ENVY ,HATE and Murderous Resentment.This is why they commit mass murder when they get real power.If you look at history it’s always the wealthy elites ( Bankers or Banking families) that finance out these movements and they always seem to get away with it.Maybe we would be wise to end Central Banking first then the money for the left would dry up real quick.
Some educated and thoughtful writers and commenters on this platform for sure. I applaud you insights. But you have not here addressed the possible true fears and motives of all demographics. Perhaps what you are seeing here ( racial, religious, or cultural conflict ) is one planned result of the true fear and motive of the ( lets face it, you don’t have to be educated, thoughtful, or hard working to be filthy rich – just lucky ) top PTB.
When our black president has as a top advisor who authored a book on most if not all the possible methods that can be used to reduce the world’s population, it gives one caution that the racial divide we are seeing now is just the implementation of one of these methods. If pondered for too long, this might bring one to wonder if it really just comes down to: rich against poor; can’t a case be made for this theme throughout all of history and way before human history? Such a depopulation end game might allow one to connect all the dots into arrows all pointing to the illogical and unreasonable fear that we can’t make the pie bigger. If the entire world’s population can live in townhouses all within the Texas border, then surely given the right inspiration, advisors and cabinet choices, we can all have some hope for the future – as long as we abide by our constitution.
As a straight, White, Christian “bitter clinger”, male American I have been told for many years that I am a POS. I am to blame for all of the problems in the world. Unfortunately, up til now, no-one has had my back, or my “six” as we say in aviation. That has been changing with the ascention of the Alt-Right and the outing of the (((neocons))) and cucks. With the election of The Donald the left has gone further apoplectic. They are totally outta control. Protests(of exactly what?), road blockages, threats of disruption of his inauguration, and calls for assassination are the daily agenda of the left. Apparently they wish to engage us, at some point. They better be careful what they wish for.
I would not hesitate to order mass executions of the Marxists (so-called Progressives) if they provoke widespread violence in this country. By merely attempting to impose their values and programs on our country they are guilty of treason – waging war against the American people, as all Communists have done when they have seized power – and deserve to die for it. Of course, most should simply suffer harsh punishment and be deprived of all political and civil rights until they abandon their criminal views and decide to become good citizens. 12 hours a day working cotton fields in Mississippi would do these snowflakes a world of good, and a good flogging once a week would remind them of the error of their ways. Getting their minds right would be a dire necessity, not an option.
If organized insurrection and violence erupts across the nation, you can be assured it will be instigated by the collectivist, multiculti, batshit crazy, parasitic crowd on the left. Anybody hoping for payback just has to sit back and wait for it.
There appears to be a number of organizations funded by Mr. Soros who are agitating for it. If an economic collapse occurs in the next couple of years, you can be assured that it will happen.
I’m waiting.
I think we do ourselves as disservice by constantly refering to these people as the left or progressives.
The vast majority of them are ill educated, emotion driven dupes being led by a hard corps cadre of communist ideologues numbering perhaps a few dozen. If push comes to shove I’m quite certain this
situation will be resolved in short order.
“Imagine the world as a pie. At one time those of Caucasian and European descent had a huge piece of that pie, while the non-Caucasian and non-European peoples were given the parts of the pie that the Caucasians and Europeans didn’t want or need. Colonialism is historical and well documented.”
Colonialism was financed and driven by greedy central bankers. The piece of pie that those of Caucasian and European descent had/have is never big enough and colonialism was simply the method used by the bankers to subjugate people who lived in relative harmony amongst themselves, for the purposes of stealing their resources and labor to enrich themselves. Their system of greed and graft is now worldwide and you and I are no different that the slaves of colonialism.
“….I am in no way a racist, sexist, bigot, or encouraging of anything which promotes the suppression of others….”
Why the fuck not? At this point, if you’re not a racist, sexist, bigot, actively encouraging everything which promotes the suppression of others, there is something seriously wrong with you.
You need not worry yourself about the risk of genocide against the Left. It’s a certainty that either they go, or we go. I prefer that they go. I’m completely comfortable with their extermination, because I know the reverse is true: they want us dead.
The first step…take away their vote.
I honestly feel that there will be a violent ending to the United States,or a division of the states when the violence gets to be to a point were all agree perhaps we are better off not united.
I would be very happy to be wrong but while I live for today I plan for tomorrow and the chance of violence against myself and loved ones.Violence brough upon me or my loved ones will not end well for them,to quote Matthias,”And nothing cleanses quite like fire”.
Greetings,
I have a reply for this but it is long and could easily stand alone. By what means can I contact the administrator?
Thanks.

It may become a race – who turns to violence first? And who loses population density first?
A city is a bad place to be when TSHTF – once the JIT delivery systems break down, people will get hungry. Three days food and supplies in stores – maybe another three in warehouses. Then it’s GONE. The family men watch their children starve, and get desperate. They turn to crime for food, and die. The hoodlums turn to crime for wealth, or just kicks. They kill, or die when the property owners win. The ordinary people starve, and get violent with each other for another day’s food and water. Disease rockets through the communities from bad sanitation, bad food (spoiled but still eaten) and bad hygiene.
Since the cities (six or seven of them) hold MOST of the liberal population, they will diminish rapidly as a sub-population. We may not need genocide – we might only need to be patient. Since I’m so DEPLORABLE, I’m afraid it might not bother me anywhere near as much as it should.
A city definitely ain’t the place to be when it all goes poof.The following was sent to me by a buddy who was a retired special forces officer.Many of you have probably seen it before.It is written by a guy from Bosnia who survived there during the 90s.
I feel 90% of the people will die in the huge cities of the east. 75% will die in smaller cities anywhere else . This is based on my studies and places I’ve been.
Your only chance is in a small community of friends. I might have a chance where I live now on a dead end road with a few neighbors out of town. I have a month of food but still need more, I need more water, a hand pump for my well, and a few good friends near me. Read the article below and start buying food, water, guns, ammo and be ready to kill to survive!
Subj: Fw: Words from a Bosnian Survivalist
I am from Bosnia. You know, between 1992 and 1995 it was hell. For one
year I lived, and survived, in a city with 6000 people, without water,
electricity, gasoline, medical help, civil defense, distribution
service, any kind of traditional service or centralized rule.
Our city was blockaded by the army and for 1 year life in the city
turned into total crap. We had no army, no police, we only had armed
groups — those armed protected their homes and families.
When it all started some of us were better prepared, but most of the
neighbors families had enough food only for a few days. Some had
pistols, a few had AK47s or shotguns.
After a month or two gangs started operating, destroying everything.
Hospitals, for example, turned into slaughterhouses. There was no more
police. About 80% of the hospital staff were gone. I got lucky — my
family at the time was fairly large (15 people in a large house, 6
pistols, 3 AKs), and we survived (most of us, at least).
The Americans dropped MREs every 10 days, to help blockaded cities. This
was never enough. Some — very few — had gardens. It took 3 months for
the first rumors to spread of men dying from hunger and cold. We removed
all the doors, the window frames from abandoned houses, ripped up the
floors and burned the furniture for heat. Many died from diseases,
especially from the water (two from my own family). We drank mostly
rainwater, ate pigeons and even rats.
Money soon became worthless. We returned to an exchange. For a tin can
of tushonka you could have a woman (it is hard to speak of it, but it
is true). Most of the women who sold themselves were desperate mothers.
Arms, ammunition, candles, lighters, antibiotics, gasoline, batteries
and food. We fought for these things like animals. In these situations
it all changes. Men become monsters. It was disgusting.
Strength was in numbers. A man living a lone getting killed and robbed
would be just a matter of time, even if he was armed.
Today me and my family are well-prepared, I am well-armed. I have
experience.
It does not matter what will happen — an earthquake, a war, a tsunami,
aliens, terrorists, economic collapse, uprising. The important part is
that something will happen.
Here’s my experience: you can’t make it on your own. Don’t stay apart
from your family, prepare together, choose reliable friends.
*1. How to move safely in a city*
The city was divided into communities along streets. Our street (15-20
homes) had patrols (5 armed men every week) to watch for gangs and for
our enemies.
All the exchanges occurred in the street. About five kilometers away was
an entire street for trading, all well-organized, but going there was
too dangerous because of the snipers. You could also get robbed by
bandits. I only went there twice, when I needed something really rare
(list of medicine, mainly antibiotics, of the French original of the texts).
Nobody used automobiles in the city: the streets were blocked by
wreckage and by abandoned cars. Gasoline was very expensive. If one
needed to go somewhere, that was done at night. Never travel alone or in
groups that were too big — always 2-3 men. All armed, travel swift, in
the shadows, cross streets through ruins, not along open streets.
There were many gangs 10-15 men strong, some as large as 50 men. But
there were also many normal men, like you and me, fathers and
grandfathers, who killed and robbed. There were no “good” and “bad” men.
Most were in the middle and ready for the worst.
*2. What about wood? Your home city is surrounded by woods, why did you
burn doors and furniture?*
There were not that many woods around the city. It was very beautiful —
restaurants, cinemas, schools, even an airport. Every tree in the city
and in the city park was cut down for fuel in the first two months.
Without electricity for cooking and heat — we burned anything that
burned. Furniture, doors, flooring — that wood burns swiftly. We had no
suburbs or suburban farms. The enemy was in the suburbs. We were
surrounded. Even in the city you never knew who was the enemy at any
given point.
*3. What knowledge was useful to you in that period?*
To imagine the situation a bit better you should know it was practically
a return to the Stone Age.
For example, I had a container of cooking gas. But I did not use it for
heat — that would be too expensive! I attached a nozzle to it I made
myself and used to fill lighters. Lighters were precious.
If a man brought an empty lighter, I would fill it and he would give me
a tin of food or a candle.
I was a paramedic. In these conditions my knowledge was my wealth. Be
curious and skilled. In these conditions the ability to fix things is
more valuable than gold.
Items and supplies will inevitably run out, but your skills will keep
you fed.
I wish to say this: learn to fix things, shoes, or people.
My neighbor, for example, knew how to make kerosene for lamps. He never
went hungry.
*4. If you had 3 months to prepare now, what would you do?*
3 months? Run away from the country! (joking)
Today I know everything can collapse really fast. I have a stockpile of
food, hygiene items, batteries… enough to last me for 6 months.
3 ?????? ? ????? ?? ?? ??????? ? (?????)
I live in a very secure flat, and own a home with a shelter in a village
5 kilometers away. Another six-month supply there too. That’s a small
village, most people there are well-prepared. The war had taught them.
I have four weapons, and 2000 rounds for each.
I have a garden and have learned gardening. Also I have a good instinct
— you know, when everyone around you keeps telling you it’ll all be
fine, but I know — it will all collapse.
I have strength to do what I need to protect my family. Because when it
all collapses you must be ready to do “bad” things to keep your children
alive and protect your family.
Surviving on your own is practically impossible (that’s what I think).
Even if you’re armed and ready — if you’re alone, you’ll die. I have seen
that happen many times.
Families and groups, well-prepared, with skills and knowledge in various
fields — that’s much better.
*5. What should you stockpile?*
That depends. If you plan to live by theft — all you need is weapons
and ammo. Lots of ammo.
If not — more food, hygiene items, batteries, accumulators, little
trading items (knives, lighters, flints, soap). Also alcohol of a type
that keeps well. The cheapest whiskey is a good trading item.
Many people died from insufficient hygiene. You’ll need simple items in
great amounts. For example, garbage bags. Lots of them. And toilet
papers. Non-reusable dishes and cups — you’ll need lots of them. I know
that because we didn’t have any at all.
As for me, a supply of hygiene items is perhaps more important than
food. You can shoot a pigeon, you can find a plant to eat. You can’t
find or shoot any disinfectant.
Disinfectant, detergents, bleach, soap, gloves, masks…
First aid skills, washing wounds and burns. Perhaps you will find a
doctor — and will not be able to pay him.
Learn to use antibiotics. It’s good to have a stockpile of them.
You should choose the simplest weapons. I carry a Glock .45, I like it,
but it’s a rare gun here — so I have two TT pistols too (everyone has
them and ammo is common).
I don’t like Kalashnikovs, but again, same story — everyone has them,
so do I.
You must own small, unnoticeable items. For example: a generator is
good, but 1000 Bic lighters are better. A generator will attract
attention if there’s any trouble, but 1000 lighters are compact, cheap,
and can always be traded.
We usually collected rainwater into 4 large barrels and then boiled it.
There was a small river but the water in it became very dirty very fast.
It’s also important to have containers for water — barrels and buckets.
*Were gold and silver useful?*
Yes. I personally traded all the gold in the house for ammunition.
Sometimes we got our hands on money — dollars and deutschmarks. We
bought some things for them, but this was rare and prices were
astronomical — for example a can of beans cost $30-40. The local money
quickly became worthless. Everything we needed we traded for through barter.
*7. Was salt expensive?*
Yes, but coffee and cigarettes were even more expensive. I had lots of
alcohol and traded it without problems. Alcohol consumption grew over 10
times as compared to peacetime. Perhaps today it’s more useful to keep a
stock of cigarettes, lighters, and batteries. They take up less space.
At this time I was not a survivalist. We had no time to prepare —
several days before the shit hit the fan, the politicians kept repeating
over the TV that everything was going according to plan, there’s no
reason to be concerned. When the sky fell on our heads, we took what we
could.
*Was it difficult to purchase firearms? What did you trade for arms and
ammunition?*
After the war we had guns in every house. The police confiscated lots of
guns at the beginning of the war. But most of them we hid. Now I have
one legal gun that I have a license for. Under the law that’s called a
temporary collection. If there is unrest, the government will seize all
the registered guns. Never forget that.
You know, there are many people who have one legal gun — but also
illegal guns if that one gets seized. If you have good trade goods you
might be able to get a gun in a tough situation, but remember, the most
difficult time is the first days, and perhaps you won’t have enough time
to find a weapon to protect your family. To be disarmed in a time of
chaos and panic is a bad idea.
In my case — there was a man who needed a car battery for his radio, he
had shotguns — I traded the accumulator for both of them. Sometimes I
traded ammunition for food, and a few weeks later traded food for
ammunition. Never did the trade at home, never in great amounts.
Few people knew how much, and what, I keep at home.
The most important thing is to keep as many things as possible in terms
of space and money. Eventually you’ll understand what is more valuable.
Correction: I’ll always value weapons and ammunition the most. Second?
Maybe gas masks and filters.
*9. What about security?*
Our defenses were very primitive. Again, we weren’t ready, and we used
what we could. The windows were shattered, and the roofs in a horrible
state after the bombings. The windows were blocked — some with
sandbags, others with rocks.
I blocked the fence gate with wreckage and garbage, and used a ladder to
get across the wall. When I came home, I asked someone inside to pass
over the ladder. We had a fellow on our street that completely
barricaded himself in his house. He broke a hole in the wall, creating a
passage for himself into the ruins of the neighbor’s house. A sort of
secret entrance.
Maybe this would seem strange, but the most protected houses were looted
and destroyed first. In my area of the city there were beautiful houses,
with walls, dogs, alarms and barred windows. People attacked them first.
Some held out, others didn’t — it all depended how many hands and guns
they had inside…
I think defense is very important — but it must be carried out
unobtrusively. If you are in a city and the shit hits the fan, you need a simple,
non-flashy place, with lots of guns and ammo.
How much ammo? As much as possible.
Make your house as unattractive as you can.
Right now I own a steel door, but that’s just against the first wave of
chaos. After that passes I will leave the city to rejoin a larger group
of people, my friends and family.
There were some situations during the war… there’s no need for
details, but we always had superior firepower, and a brick wall, on our
side.
We also constantly kept someone watching the streets. Quality
organization is paramount in case of gang attacks.
Shooting was constantly heard in the city.
Our perimeter was defended primitively — all the exits were barricaded
and has little firing slits. Inside we had at least five family members
ready for battle at any time, and one man in the street, hidden in a
shelter.
We stayed home through the day to avoid sniper fire.
At first, the weak perish. Then the rest fight.
During the day, the streets were practically empty due to sniper fire.
Defenses were oriented towards short-range combat alone. Many died if
they went out to gather information, for example. It’s important to
remember we had no information, no radio, no TV — only rumors and
nothing else.
There was no organized army, every man fought. We had no choice.
Everybody was armed, ready to defend themselves.
You should not wear quality items in the city — someone will murder you
and take them. Don’t even carry a “pretty” longarm, it will attract
attention.
Let me tell you something: if chaos starts tomorrow I’ll be humble. I’ll
look like everyone else. Desperate, fearful. Maybe I’ll even shout and
cry a little bit.
Pretty clothing is excluded altogether. I will not go out in my new
tactical outfit to shout: “I have come! You’re doomed, bad guys!” No,
I’ll stay inside, well-armed, well-prepared, waiting and evaluating my
possibilities, with my best friend or brother.
Super-defenses, super-guns are meaningless. If people think they should
steal your things, that you’re profitable — they will. It’s only a
question of time and the amount of guns and hands.
*How was the situation with toilets?*
We used shovels and a patch of earth near the house. Does it seem dirty?
It was. We washed with rainwater or in the river — but most of the time
the latter was too dangerous. We had no toilet paper, and if we had any,
I would have traded it away.
It was a “dirty” business.
Let me give you a piece of advice: you need guns and ammo first — and
second, everything else. Literally EVERYTHING! All depends on the space
and money you have.
If you forget something there’ll always be someone to trade with for it
— but if you forget weapons and ammo, there will be no access to
trading for you.
I don’t think big families are extra mouths. Big families means both
more guns and strength — and from there, everyone prepares on his own.
*11. How did people treat the sick and the injured?*
Most injuries were from gunfire. Without a specialist and without
equipment, if an injured man found a doctor somewhere, he had about a
30% chance of survival.
It ain’t the movie. People died. Many died from infections of
superficial wounds. I had antibiotics for 3-4 uses — for the family of
course.
People died foolishly quite often. Simple diarrhea will kill you in a
few days without medicine, with limited amounts of water.
There were many skin diseases and food poisonings… nothing to it.
Many used local plants and pure alcohol — enough for the short-term,
but useless in the long-term.
Hygiene is very important… as well as having as much medicine as
possible. Especially antibiotics.

Everyone has seen this 1998 60-Minutes interview w/ G. Soros: yesterday’s re-post on The Corbett Report ?
I can not visualize a mass of white conservatives/libertarians
or a white faction of any spirit attacking any left/libs regardless
of the abuse we are taking. Yet, if groups are actually attacked,
(picture marauding gangs) some may fight back. They will not
be those recoiling at the sight of a gun.
The danger we face isn’t the blubbering triggered. The danger is
inflation and deflation at the same time. The stock market isn’t
really an issue because it is fake. A failure of credit, banks failing,
no cash or cash worthless, and a shortage of clean water (any water)
and food and medicine, (think Venezuela) will be life threatening.
The big cities will be the most dangerous. All those people crammed
in and without basic resources may become hell on earth.
I am not looking forward to it. The clueless and procrastinators won’t
be prepared, and won’t have any chance at all.
