Water solutions for bugging inThe Organic Prepper

Water is second only to oxygen in the hierarchy of survival. Without it, in 3 days, you’ll die.  But it goes much further than that.  Water is vital for basic sanitation, for growing more food, for raising livestock, for cooking, and for treating injuries. So even if you have enough to drink, without enough for those other needs, your chances aren’t good.

The solutions you choose for water should be based on whether your plans for long term survival are bugging out to a secondary or unknown location, or sheltering in place. This week we’ll talk about solutions for bugging in.   Continue reading “Long Term Water Solutions: Bugging In”

Zero Hedge – by Tyler Durden

Having “condemned Russia’s incredible act of aggression” which markets now appear to have forgotten about, we wonder just what Secretary of State John Kerry will have to say in this speech. Markets appear to think it’s all over and east and west Ukraine can all sing Kumbayah with Putin leading the melody but other leaders continue to call for “crushing” sanctions against Europe’s largest gas supplier. We are sure Kerry will clear it all up and explain where the line that was not crossed is… and for goodness’ sake don’t mention the Russian boots on the ground in Crimea.   Continue reading “John Kerry To Explain How Ukraine Is Fixed – Live Feed”

When To Revolt Against GovernmentMilitia News – by Wesley Allen Riddle

The cords that bind the Union together are weaker than they have been in more than a century. Many states are entering into political revolt against federal encroachment. But this situation is no departure from American tradition. Revolting against consolidated government has been a key to keeping the government in check.

The Founders themselves provided criteria by which to judge the proper occasion for action–both in terms of empirical precedent during the American Revolution, as well as in terms of written, theoretical discourse.   Continue reading “When To Revolt Against Government”

Here’s Samuel Adam’s essay under his pen name Candidus, published in Boston Gazette on October 14, 1771.

I BELIEVE that no people ever yet groaned under the heavy yoke of slavery, but when they deserv’d it. This may be called a severe censure upon by far the greatest part of the nations in the world who are involv’d in the misery of servitude: But however they may be thought by some to deserve commiseration, the censure is just. Zuinglius, one of the first reformers, in his friendly admonition to the republic of the Switzers, discourses much of his countrymens throwing off the yoke: Continue reading “Samuel Adams – Advocating The Overthrow Of Government”

A school-bus driver in rural Georgia who was fired after sticking up for a hungry student last spring has joined forces with the American Civil Liberties Union to file a lawsuit against the school district on Thursday for “violating [his] free speech rights.”

The bumpy ride for the driver, Johnny Cook of Tallapoosa, began last May, when he posted a Facebook message expressing concern for a middle-school student who told him he was hungry after being denied a school lunch for not having the necessary 40 cents on his account.

The tax, officially known as a “storm water management fee,” will be enforced in nine of the state’s counties. The state legislature passed it in 2012 purportedly to “raise revenue to cleanup [sic] the Chesapeake Bay,” according to MarylandReporter.com.

Former 2012 GOP U.S. Senate candidate Dan Bongino bashes the tax in a Wednesday afternoon press release. The law “requires individuals, businesses, and even charitable organizations and houses of worship to pay a tax based on the amount of rain that falls on their property and the ‘impervious surfaces’ on their land,” he says.   Continue reading “Maryland Democratic Governor Martin O’Malley has instituted a tax on citizens for the amount of rain that falls on their property”

The Rebel – by John Kaminski

The world increasingly makes no sense. It is awash in lies, financial scams and false flag murder. That everyone has not gone completely insane already is a miracle in itself, given the environmental and behavioral incentives to do so.

We look to those who can ease the pain of troubled minds and broken hearts, hoping they can provide some degree of understanding about a world in which the moral fabric we hope our children can absorb and pass on to their offspring has rotted into a sordid fast buck operation with no redeeming social value.   Continue reading “On a shrink and a prayer”

GREELEY, Colo. — If you mention the word “secession” most people think of the South during the Civil War. But today, a new movement is gaining steam because of frustration over a growing, out-of-control federal government.

A number of conservative, rural Americans are taking about seceding and creating their own states, meaning a new map of the United States of America could include the following:   Continue reading “The New USA? Secession Movement Gains Steam”

Pro Liberate – by William Norman Grigg

“I don’t know why there would be [one],” replied Idaho Falls Police Chief Mark McBride when asked if his department would apologize to Victor and Delosanto Madrigal and their family. “Just because a person is found not guilty doesn’t mean the officers were wrong.”

Actually, Chief McBride, that is precisely what this acquittal means, given that the charges in question were contrived by your officers to justify their own criminal behavior – and the only “evidence” supporting them was police testimony that the jury correctly determined to be entirely implausible, if not outright perjury.   Continue reading “Chief Mark McBride: The Crime Lord of Idaho Falls”

“Give me the children until they are seven, and anyone may have them afterwards.” – attrib. St. Francis Xavier.

Obama is cementing his redefinition of America by federalizing the minds of its future: children. The federal Common Core program seeks to “align” the curriculum and standards of public school systems that have been under state jurisdiction. The program is said to be voluntary but then, so are taxes.   Continue reading “US Schools Go Full-Bore Soviet”

Stop the Drug War – by Phillip Smith

A drug court probation officer parties down with one of his clients, a Georgia cop goes to prison for ripping off a drug dealer, and so does a Philadelphia cop. Keep an eye on Philly. The stench is really rising there. Let’s get to it:

In Philadelphia, a former Philadelphia narcotics officer pleaded guilty Monday to attempted robbery and firearms charges for stealing $15,000 from a Southwest Philly drug dealer after planting cocaine in his car. Jeffrey Walker, a 24-year veteran of the department, also agreed to testify against his former colleagues in a widening federal probe of corruption in the dope squad, and his lawyer said his crimes paled in comparison with those of other implicated officers.   Continue reading “This Week’s Corrupt Cops Stories”

This is the last in the series much to the relief of police apologists everywhere. The first four essays can be found here:   Continue reading “Badged Serial Killers: The Growing Murder Culture of Cops (Part V)”
