The more and more I look into it, it seems we are being disarmed and something sinister is going on. If I would have paid attention earlier I could be prepared better for whatever may happen. I'm not talking end of earth preppers here but having a supply of food some weapons and things of that nature.
SO you have been personally disarmed? You have witnessed shortages in the food supply to the point you believe stocking up is sane and rational? What are are you in because I can't say the same for myself...
My husband works for a local grocer chain and can attest that during the MSM's ramping up of the NK crisis, they had a difficult time keeping water, canned goods, and bread on the shelves. For a week there was a shortage of these items and the local safeway reported the same.
I'd say that stocking up is not a bad idea.

because we are in a time unlike any other. a perfect storm of economic collapse, mistrust of government, heightened nationalistic paranoia and manufactured fear mean we, as a global citizenry, are on the ropes and dizzy. all it needs is the knockout blow.
Please, we are at one of the most apathetic times in our countries history.
Want to talk about nationalistic paranoia then look no further than the red scare when everyone was afraid they were going to be accused of being a communist.
Our economy appears to be getting better so there is no economic collapse and i've seen no polls indicating there is any more distrust of the government than there ever has been.

Hate to say it, but you are probably right. It wouldn't be the first time something was done to distract from things they want forgotten. Besides which, I have suspected for some time that a LOT of the major news stories are engineered. Not that the events didn't happen, but that they might not have been done as we were told.

So which example are you referring specifically to, the one that took attention off and distracted? Exactly?
