How many rape whistles does one person need?

By the time they become effective preppers they'd learn to be responsible for themselves and become conservatives. Lefties only look to the state for sustenance, no need to be prepared.

At least they're trying...kinda. I loved the soccer mom who is worried her kid may get fed propaganda...RICH!

They must be moderate Progressives.

Thing I found interesting about the article was the list of things they were accumulating....not one item was a self defense type weapon or a firearm, which brings me to this question....hypothecially, if there was something big and bad enough to where you would need to use this stuff, how would you keep people who have no qualms about taking your stash, from doing just that? I've always thought that firearms, ammunition and other weapons were a piece of the whole "prepping" lifestyle.

Shhhhhhh........Don't blow it. I want them to keep stocking up my "store"!

 

[Dosproduction]

Agree the more they save the more I don't have to. Fools

Hopefully that militia group that popped in here several years ago that said they would loot and pillage will take note of these new sources for them.

However, a handful of Liberal Prepper members have bought guns and ammunition since the election.
Though Waugh and his wife never considered buying a gun before the 2016 campaign cycle, they purchased a 12-gauge shotgun and a 9mm handgun by the end of the year.

A 12-gauge shotgun and a 9mm handgun. Why bless their hearts. I may cry...

Sorry- hot linked from the comments. I couldn't help it...

what are they stocking up on crayons and coloring books??????

What a difference an election makes! Up until last November, preppers were just paranoid right wing nut jobs, and now, prepping is being embraced by some on the left. I'm sure MOST on the left still don't have the presence of mind to look out for themselves, but still, I find it hilarious how subjects like prepping, secession, and even firearms ownership seem to be important to these dumb ****s now.

Just want to make sure this is not taken too seriously, it is clearly fiction in an Onion type of humor. I know there are some ex Chicago people here and they will probably get a laugh out of it. The author of the blog is very conservative and reposted the article from somewhere else

"No young person can not be at least a little liberal, or he doesn't have a heart. No mature person can not lean at least a little conservative, or he doesn't have a brain".... Heard that somewhere. Similarly, I don't think anyone could ask the serious questions necessary for effective prepping without his or her beliefs shifting toward conservative thinking...

I love how Trump is bringing people together....Another campaign promise kept!!!!!

Trump 2020

Original:
"Not to be a republican (liberal) at 20 is proof of want of heart; to be one at 30 is proof of want of head". François Guizot, around 1850
Later:
"If a man is not a socialist in his youth, he has no heart. If he is not a conservative by the time he is 30 he has no head" -- Georges Clemenceau
And an American version:
Thomas Jefferson preserved this quip, writing in a 1799 journal that Adams had said: “A boy of 15 who is not a democrat is good for nothing, and he is no better who is a democrat at 20.”

They'll just use the plan that worked for them during the Katrina storm, go where they're told and wait.

I find it funny now, that the people that said prepping and guns were for paranoid right wingers, are now prepping and getting guns.
