Mr. Rawles,
I was happily married for 14 years. I lived through hurricanes and snowstorms with my ex-wife. We were preppers, with many firearms, ammunition, water filtration systems, storage food, etc. One thing that was lacking was mental health. She has suffered from long term mental problems for over a decade. She tried to have me arrested as a domestic terrorist. When that failed to happen, she tried to make me out as a child abuser. When that failed, she divorced me, and forced a sale of all of our stored food, guns, ammunition, etc.
I wanted to let your readers know they should prepare themselves for all circumstances, which is something I did not do. I never saw this coming, and have lost all my firearms as a result of this divorce. I had over 50 firearms, and hundred of thousands of rounds of ammunition, which I was forced to sell at auction at a severe loss. Seeing 1,000 rounds of 9×25 Dillon for $60 dollars is a complete waste, especially when all of the ammunition is from Doubletap ammo. I am sure you can get the idea, but all of us thinking about long term survival should now consider the unthinkable, if their loved ones become unlovable or mentally ill. Mine has since been founded for causing mental injury to our kids, but the system is slow and does little if the ones guilty/founded flee the state.
Make plans to cover all bases, even the ones that seem the most insane of all. Best of luck to all your readers, and keep up the great work. – R.J.
