How to get a head start on preparing
for post-election civil unrest

Original Article

Only fourteen days until America's watershed election. Some of you may be concerned that your family has not made adequate preparations for the probable civil unrest ahead. Not to worry: here are some bare-bones suggestion that will ensure that you and your loved ones will have the basics needed for some short-term supply chain shortages. These are suggestions that I have personally purchased for my family and our extended family. Shop for these items at three or four different stores. You don't want folks to notice two or three shopping carts overflowing with obvious prep supplies

Unless YOU are on the Planning Committee for all this unrest, how hard is it to ''borrow trouble?''

Suggestion #1: if you live in a blue city, get the heck out of there and let them burn, loot, and kill each other. It's Gaia's way of cleansing the area. Suggestion #2: if you live in a red area, just make sure you have enough vital minerals, like lead, to fortify against infectious Marxists that might have spread your way.

Except for candles, bleach, duck tape, and more water, my household is mostly ready for this. Western Colorado is blood red so we feel safer here. And we live only a stone's throw away from the Colorado River in case more water is needed. A take away from DeKovnick's piece is that technology may be disrupted - no internet, television, and cell phone service. Rely on over the air communications. Cell towers are a sitting duck waiting to be shot up by antifa. Also have plenty of cash at home in case you have a critical need for something. As #2 points out, having plenty of trace minerals on hand such as lead is vital, but, hurry on this one because supplies are already very limited.

I have been getting ready since I was 8 years old, just didn't know it at the time. I probably should fill the camping water containers. I also remember where the natural spring is that used to provide me all the water I wanted as a kid which let me run wild until the designated check in times.

I live in Hurricane Country, so I always have the staples mentioned in the article. To add to the list, a generator capable of running essentials such as hot water and refrigerator/freezer. An adequate amount of cash on hand if the grid goes down. And as many have already stated, firearms that you are comfortable and skilled using. With plenty of ammo, of course.

Way too late, #3. No ammo on the shelves at all for handguns, some birdshot for shotguns, useful at 5-10 yds or less only for repelling boarders, some small amounts of ammo for hunting rifles, nothing in most stores in .223 or .308 for months.

Way back during the Smidgen administration I was afraid that the economy would collapse so I bought a year’s worth of dehydrated meals and fruits with a 25 year shelf life. We still have them along with a generator and plenty of self defense supplies. There’s water all around us. I think we’re good to go.

I have a feeling if the riots are because a Trump wins, he’s taking off the kid gloves and we’ll see antifa blood running in the streets. He’ll have won a mandate for law and order and won’t be constructed by an upcoming election. That’ll shut the Shiite down pretty quick.

Why the Left Hates Cuomo 10 replies
Posted by Magnante 3/9/2021 4:36:40 AM Post Reply
Conservatives are happily gloating over the fact that Andrew Cuomo is at, or rapidly approaching, his nadir. (snip) Cuomo's pandering has always been coarse, heavy-handed, and insincere. Though he is hardly a closet conservative, and probably genuinely supports these policies, it has always been obvious that Cuomo manipulated leftist identity groups so that they would have no alternative but to vote for him and make him governor-for-life. (Indeed, until only a few weeks ago, Cuomo seemed to be a shoo-in for a fourth term). Eventually, though, it became clear that the leftist identity-politics groups were getting tired of getting the pimp hand from Cuomo

Meghan Markle, it seems, isn't much of a scholar. While much of the focus has been on her barbs accusing the British royal family of abnormal interest in her baby's skin color and denying him a title and personal security protection supposedly because he is black and they are racists, what's striking to me is how unprepared she was for the royal role she sought when she married Prince Harry. And not just ignorant, but willfully ignorant, proud of her ignorance, flippantly stating she never did "any research," as if that's something to be proud of.

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.

The relentless campaign to demonize supporters of President Trump entered the realm of self-parody this past week, with warnings that the US Capitol and democracy itself were in danger on March 4 because QAnon saw that date as the real inauguration day. It was all balderdash, a PsyOp aimed at delegitimizing support for Trump or questioning the integrity of the presidential election. Even the Washington Post admitted there was nothing to it, calling the reports a “mirage.” (snip) Al Green, a Democrat from the Houston area, [undertook] a stunt of surpassing stupidity that was taken with deadpan seriousness by much of the media.
The U.S. Economy Is Rigged 13 replies

Though the populist tide seems to have ebbed, it will rise again, and soon. The problem that ignited populist sentiment in the first place, whether on the left or the right, remains: the country’s economic and financial system has failed much of the population and is rigged to the benefit of a government-business elite. Resistance to this inequity elevated Trump and pulled the Democratic Party to the left and will continue to roil American politics until things change. The economy’s “rigging” has developed gradually over time and often from the best of intentions.

No, conference goers didn't gather to spread conspiracy theories. No, they didn't bow down to a golden statue of Trump. And no, the stage wasn't designed to pay homage to Nazi symbology. Fascism, a form of big government, is hated among conservatives. Outsiders in the mainstream media really piled on the hate. "There will be no policy debates," claimed an MSNBC opinion columnist. That's false. The truth, it seems, was of no value in reporting on this year's Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). Among speeches from high-profile Republicans were dozens of panels and debates on a broad spectrum of policy issues — which was the purpose of the gathering.

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab.

Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote.
