Everyone is horrified lately about stuff on the internet.
From degrading comments to vile posts to videos that urge self-harm, the internet is a cesspool that shows the worst of humankind. Pedophilia, hate, racism, sexism, rape, animal abuse, bullying, and murder are everywhere. But it’s not the internet that is the problem. It’s humanity. Continue reading “It’s Not the Internet That’s Dark. It’s Humanity.”

Dear fellows, the title of this article is intended to alert what happens in a real crisis. Criminals have been released in Venezuela and given guns to shoot the demonstrators who are protesting against Maduro.
This is another localized end-of-days event that is incredibly dangerous. Continue reading “In Venezuela, Inmates Are Being Released, Uniformed, Armed, and Sent to Kill Protesters”

For the second day in a row, gun-grabbers in the US House of Representatives have passed an extreme gun control bill.
Yesterday we reported that the House of Representatives voted to pass H.R. 8, the Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2019, which would require background checks for all firearm sales, including private transactions and purchases made online and at gun shows. Currently, only federally licensed firearms dealers, importers, and manufacturers are required to conduct background checks on customers under federal law.

Several years ago, I wrote the following for a survival medicine book we had put together. I still think it provides a realistic view of the potential medical environment in a grid down or austere survival situation. Continue reading “The Grim Reality of Survival Medicine in Austere Conditions”

Today, gun-grabbers in the House of Representatives held their first major vote on gun control legislation in years.
They voted to pass H.R. 8, the Bipartisan Background Checks Act of 2019, which would require background checks for all firearm sales, including private transactions and purchases made online and at gun shows. Currently, only federally licensed firearms dealers, importers, and manufacturers are required to conduct background checks on customers under federal law. Twenty states and D.C. have already expanded background checks to include at least some private sales. The bill was described by NPR as “sweeping.” Continue reading “The House Just PASSED a “Sweeping” Gun Control Bill. Tomorrow They Vote On Another.”

“As vehicles get smarter, your car will be keeping eyes on you,” a recent Reuters report threatened. New backseat driver tech aims to monitor you inside your car.
Gary Numan once sang in the song “Cars,” which sounded futuristic in its time: Continue reading “A.I. Take the Wheel: Backseat Driver Technology Will Monitor You INSIDE Your Car”
Writing an article about “what makeshift weapons can you use when you do not have weapons” sounds completely out of the prepper realm. Because when the SHTF and you find yourself in your home without any real weapons, that usually means you are not a prepper or survivalist in the first place. But there are situations when people don’t have or cannot have guns.
Given my experience writing about this topic might help you in a way that you understand what people did in those cases. It may help you to know how human psychology works when something bad happens and you are not prepared.

If you want a totalitarian regime, you have to take extra steps to control the populace. And that’s just what Venezuela has done with the advent of a biometric ID called Carnet, loosely translated as The Fatherland Card. Carnet is closely related to the dystopian Chinese social credit program and in fact, uses much of the same technology to track and spy on citizens.
And it’s been in the works for a long time. Continue reading “The Brutal Truth About the CARNET: The Venezuelan Biometric ID Also Known as the Fatherland Card”

While many are concerned with possible flare-ups in places like Syria, Israel, or the South China Sea, another area where there is the distinct potential for a third world war has always been and still remains to be Ukraine.
While the Western media rarely reports on Ukraine except to remind its readers and viewers that Russia “illegally annexed” Crimea and destabilized democratic Ukraine, the fact is that the area is a powder keg that could bring about direct clashes between Russia and the US or NATO.

Sounds around us is one of the ways Mother Nature has to warn us, attract us to something, and for humans during these so-called modern times, enjoy and relax. It can be a very powerful tool.
Psychological operations warfare specialists know about this. A lot of tools and technologies have been weaponized, we all know that. Most of them are kept under secrecy, some other ones have been available for the public. The power of sound should not be underestimated and should be handled with care. Sound can break glass or even cause permanent injuries. Continue reading “How to Use SOUND As a Defensive Deterrent”

Yesterday, the Associated Press published an exclusive report with an alarming headline:
50m Gallons of Polluted Water Pours Daily From US Mine Sites
According to the report, millions of gallons of contaminated water tainted with arsenic, lead, and other toxic metals flow into streams and ponds in certain regions of the US every day.

Have you ever had a sudden financial emergency?
Maybe you lost your job. Maybe your car broke down and requires an expensive repair. Maybe one of the family has had a medical emergency with large, out-of-pocket expenses.
Whatever the reason, the steps you should take are basically the same. While I hope that you have an emergency fund to cushion the blow, even if you don’t, there are things you can do. Continue reading “What to Do When You Have a Financial Emergency”

As more people seek safe, natural remedies for health concerns – and as more states legalize medical cannabis – interest in cannabidiol (commonly known as “CBD”) is growing. Yet another issue that CBD may help with is sleep disorders, ranging from insomnia to sleep apnea and more. Continue reading “Can’t Sleep? Got Insomnia? These Studies Suggest CBD for Sleep Disorders”

For the better part of 2018, Venezuela had remained out of the headlines. At least in the mainstream Western press, they were more focused on scary Russian agents, keeping American forces in Syria, and promoting a war with Iran.
But a few weeks ago, the South American country found itself on the front page after the American-backed “opposition” leader, Juan Guaido,’ claimed that he was the legitimate President of Venezuela and was immediately recognized by the United States and a host of Central and South American neighbors.

I called this article moving around with purpose when SHTF with clear intention.
SHTF, especially early stages may be a good opportunity to acquire things through looting, scavenging, or whatever you may call it. However, it is also a good opportunity to end up dead. Continue reading “Selco: Moving Around (with Purpose) When the SHTF”

An infectious disease expert has warned that a deadly disease found in deer could infect humans in the near future.
Often referred to as “zombie deer” disease because of the symptoms, Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) has been reported in at least 24 states in the continental United States and in two provinces in Canada as of January 2019.

A team of researchers from Mexico’s National Polytechnic Institute (IPN) led by Eva Ramon Gallegos report they’ve found a cure for HPV. HPV is the human papillomavirus, a leading cause of cancer.
The team completely eradicated HPV in 29 patients using a technique called photodynamic therapy. The non-invasive treatment uses a drug called a photosensitizer or photosensitizing agent, alongside a wavelength of light that is used to treat the areas of the body that are affected by HPV.

New Mexico has a new governor, and she really doesn’t like guns.
Michelle Lujan Grisham, a Democrat, was sworn into office on January 1, replacing pro-gun Republican Susana Martinez.
In early December, the National Rifle Association (NRA) warned the citizens of New Mexico to expect “unprecedented attacks” on their Constitutional rights. Continue reading “Sheriffs in New Mexico Vow Not to Enforce 6 Absolutely OUTRAGEOUS New Gun Control Bills”
While we would love to be able to trust the liquid flowing from our faucets, anyone who pays even half-hearted attention to the news knows that we can no longer expect safety in our drinking water unless we confirm it ourselves.
The EPA and Michigan’s Gov. Snyder really added to the list of reasons that I have trust issues. Water is one of the most important survival topics around – it’s so important to me that I wrote an entire book about it. Continue reading “How to Test Your Drinking Water (And Why You Should Do It)”
