I like the house and the girls on there and that's about it . That older dude not the young one has no brain . I had a friend killed on a tractor just like he did when he filliped that 8-N tractor . I got one just like it . What a dip .
Never heard of preppers before the shows come out but I guess I am one but I all way's called it survivalist .
-
I watched a couple episodes ; the idea of hiding in a castle is wrong for any kind of doom;wasting lots of $$ to built it, he can get 2-3 great off road bug out vehicle for this $$ , imop mobility= life.
"Doomsday preppers" series on National Geographic was way better, more things to learn.
-
I been watching preppers too .
-
the show is stupid. the girls are hot. the older son is a#$%. it's really too stupid for me to even sit through an episode for the girls.......
-
I'm astonished at how many people out there think dooms day is just right around the corner. It's one thing to be a survivalist and learn how to live off the land and what not. But building forts and attack dune buggies like Mad Max is straight up retarded.
-
Yes, the chicks are hot and the idea of having a castle is neat. However, that thing is still years away from being completed and I can't imagine the cost to make it habitable let alone defensible. The bunker they call "home" now looks like a death trap to me.
-
It's so bad I flip the channel when the promo for it comes on.
-
Only reason I really watch it is for the girl's but I was a brick and stone mason and block . I just like to watch how the castle is being made . The old man said he had all ready spent over a million on it like it is . I liked to be the one that did the block work . It's got a bunch in it and at 2 buck's a block just to have it put in the wall would be a nice check .
-
the thing that gets me about ALL of these doomsday people......they almost ALL think they're gonna bug out. some have what appear to be really well laid out plans to do this. what not a single one of them take into account though, is that if they feel the need to bug out, so will the other half a million people around them. accordingly, IF anything happened that caused them to feel the need to bug......so would everyone else. they'd be leaving the relative safety and defendability of their home to sit in a traffic jam in a relatively unsecure, undefendable vehicle.
this of course if presuming that anything that bad did ever happen though.....i feel that to be highly doubtful though

Yeah I don't see anything going down unless the government don't send out those SSI checks then it could be some trouble . The other thing I think would be a solar flair and knocks the power systems down or something .
That's why I like to live in the sticks like I do . I have 60 thousand acres of government land of hard woods behind me that I can fall back too if my place get's over run . That I know like a book .

The preacher man says it’s the end of time
And the Mississippi River she’s a goin’ dry
The interest is up and the Stock Markets down
And you only get mugged
If you go down town
I live back in the woods, you see
A woman and the kids, and the dogs and me
I got a shotgun rifle and a 4-wheel drive
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I can plow a field all day long
I can catch catfish from dusk till dawn
We make our own whiskey and our own smoke too
Ain’t too many things these ole boys can’t do
We grow good ole tomatoes and homemade wine
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
Because you can’t starve us out
And you cant makes us run
Cuz we're them old boys raised on shotgun
And we say grace and we say Ma’am
And if you ain’t into that we don’t give a damn
We came from the West Virginia coalmines
And the Rocky Mountains and the and the western skies
And we can skin a buck; we can run a trout line
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
I had a good friend in New York City
He never called me by my name, just hillbilly
My grandpa taught me how to live off the land
And his taught him to be a businessman
He used to send me pictures of the Broadway nights
And I’d send him some homemade wine
But he was killed by a man with a switchblade knife
For 43 dollars my friend lost his life
Id love to spit some beechnut in that dudes eyes
And shoot him with my old 45
Cause a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive
Cause you can’t starve us out and you can’t make us run
Cuz we're them old boys raised on shotgun
And we say grace and we say Ma’am
And if you ain’t into that we don’t give a damn
We’re from North California and south Alabam
And little towns all around this land
And we can skin a buck; we can run a trot-line
And a country boy can survive
Country folks can survive

Old Hank , I think I wore out a few of those CD's , lol .

Hell yeah! There's a lot of truth in that song. If the crap does hit the fan it'll be the city folks going off the deep end. As for me, I'm grabbing my lawn chair and heading to the fishing hole or favorite squirrel hunting spot.

Gas supply is going to run out real fast. There'll be no gas stations on doomsday. Better to invest to a set of mules instead :)

yea... my thinking.......IF anything ever happened to where we need to worry....i worry more about storms taking out electricity for long periods. katrina and sandy both showed what can/will happen. one of my buddys in the guard witnessed looting while sandy was still here. they couldn't even wait till it was gone.

problem is that you are not the only one with that idea. then again not like the whole city of new york is gonna move to the sticks. but dont expect to be alone.

fuel won't run out so fast you can't get out of dodge and get somewhere. besides, ethanol is easily distilled...

I just watched this on CNN http://www.cnn.com/2013/10/20/us/california-oarfish-mystery/index.html I read about this oarfish, they shouldn't be here on the beach dead or alive; in Japan are known as earthquake warning showing up before EQs, when their deep ocean habitat is disturbed by tectonic movement;

git yer bunker ready Flench...
-
I'm trying to get a bunker ready now to keep food in and in case of a fallout but my plan is to fight until I have to hit the wood's . I hunted that 60 thousand acres of land for 45 year's and i no every hole in it . I know I well not be the only ones to be in there but I bet they have no clue where they would be at . My plane is to sniper them off one at a time . Shoot and move or more like shoot and don't move until it's clear then move .
I well not need fuel but I don't have all the ammo I need . I plan on at lest 1000 rounds a gun .I got plenty for my shotgun and all most that much for my 243 but my 270 I have 4 boxs and I can shot that up in one day of running deer dog's so that's another thing I got to get . I guess I sell my 22 for a HR-17 and buy some more 9mm rounds too .

I have all ready been there uptown when the ice storm hit us back in 94 . I did not have power for six week's . Was cooking in the fireplace . It was a life saver .

Honestly, I think these shows do a disservice to what I call "practical preppers" (a category which most Mormon families fall into). Specifically, I'm talking about common sense preparedness, such as having at least a couple week's food, water, and prescriptions stored, as well as 72-hour evac-packs for each member of your family and "get-home" kits in your vehicles. LDS families do typically go somewhat beyond this and keep a one-year supply of food on hand. This is primarily a defense against sudden and sustained loss or reduction of income, and not because they're planning for the end of days. I personally know many a LDS family that have had to dip into their food storage during hard times. Think of it as food insurance. Let's face it: if society completely collapses, even a year's worth of food is not going to save you. But many other scenarios where a temporary but significant disruption of services can and do happen periodically. That's what you should be preparing for...not the apocalypse. Those who build bunkers and castles are on the fringe of society, and typically spend so much time and resources preparing for "the end of society" that they forget to live. They also likely haven't considered what they would do in the aftermath of their initial survival, i.e. what are they surviving for? In the end (no pun intended), that is what will likely do them in, should and apocalypse occur.
