Happy New Year, ...
To you and your family, may the blessings of Liberty be yours this year and next.

Needless to say, we (you and your family) will have to work for it every minute, every hour, and every day.

Things You Might Want to Think About

Ambush
Things like this have been going on for years, decades, centuries.

The only problem, ...

It just doesn't happen to the cops.

Copy Cat
During the Troubles in Ireland, the various factions used terrorism to advance their cause.

They also learned from each other.

Damned
Several months ago, due to 'good intentions,' some folks suggested that the local police should reduce the amount patrolling in certain parts of the city. They believed this would reduce the amount of crime in those areas because there would be less oppression of the residents, allow the area residents use use alternate justice methods (like talking about it, with each other), and other feel goods.

Well, ...

It isn't working out.

Fight
Folks, a family of four are dead. For what reason, we may never know.

But, ...

This is another example for having the tools and the training to protect your family from predators

Iran
A word of caution, during a revolution, the end result isn't known until the dust settles or ...

The blood stops flowing.

Jews
As preppers and survivalists, we can learn from the Jews because they have been harassed, persecuted, beaten, driven out of their homes, and killed.

But, ...

They continue to live, enjoy life, and survive.

Two Books
There are two books that your family needs to survive the tough times ahead.

First, Nuclear War Survival Skills.

You can download a free copy from the Madison County Emergency Management Agency, but having a paper version would be a really, really good idea.

Second, Maintaining Nutritional Adequacy During a Prolonged Food Crisis.

You can download a free copy from these United States Department of Energy. As far as I know, I am the only one in the world with a paper copy.

Not really, but you will need a paper copy of the pamphlet for your reference.

Trash
Leave it to Liberals to make a big deal out of taking out the trash.


Overheard

"Without Social media and Fox this wouldn't be considered news worthy by the left."

"Why is it that some people can be extraordinarily well-paid and work in pampered settings but feel empty, while others can work in the sewers of New York City and feel fulfilled? Part of the answer is purpose."


"War is Hell."
