Reader J.B.G. sent: News from England: Big brother to switch off your fridge: Power giants to make millions – but you must pay for ‘sinister’ technology o o o I can remember back in April of 1980 I was quite concerned that Zimbabwe (the former Rhodesia) had been taken over by Comrade Robert Mugabe, a quintessential African Dictator. Sadly, the passing of 33 years has not seen freedom and justice prevail in Zimbabwe, nor here in these United States. Yes, all these years later, Mugabe is still in power, and we now have our own would-be African Dictator, with …

Consider the evidence: Preppers throughout the world sense a coming, apocalyptic event. If you are a prepper, God’s warnings, in part, are already clearly formed in your heart: “A prudent man foresees the evil, and hides himself [knows how to escape calamities]: but the simple pass on, and are punished”–Proverbs 22:3. [Words in brackets mine] In the book of Hebrews, we read of perhaps the most famous prepper of all time: “By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he …

I heard that KGI in Arkansas is starting to ship Tavor bullpups! I suspect that the parts for these will soon be import banned via Executive Order, so they’d be good to buy even as an investment. The brown “Flat Dark “Earth” color variant would blend in better, in nearly all environments. (Black is a color rarely seen in nature, so it sticks out.) o o o A gent in Delta Junction, Alaska wrote to ask if we still provide free shooting targets. Yes, we do! o o o The first mass-marketed fire escape respirator to protect against …

Step 1 – Divide to conquer. We know there were not enough votes …
Dear CPT Rawles, Thank you for SurvivalBlog, and best wishes to all of you at the Rawles Ranch. My wife and I have written to once before about retreat locale recommendations, and you were so very helpful. We are, I guess what you could call “late preppers” because we’ve only been working on this for about the last year, & part of that with admittedly a certain skepticism. Time has proven you right however, & now we are doing all we can. It’s tough to prioritize when you need so much, and everything is like an emergency right NOW …
