Fear Of The Walking Dead: The American Police State Takes AimSubmitted by Tyler Durden on 10/26/2015 22:00 -0400 Submitted by John Whitehead via The Rutherford Institute, Here’s the curious thing, however: while zombies may be the personification of our darkest fears, they embody the government’s paranoia about the citizenry as potential threats that need to be monitored, tracked, surveilled, sequestered, deterred, vanquished and rendered impotent. Why else would the government feel the need to monitor our communications, track our movements, criminalize our every action, treat us like suspects, and strip us of any means of defense while equipping its own personnel with an amazing arsenal of weapons? For years now, the government has been carrying out military training drills with zombies as the enemy. www.zerohedge.com/news/2015-10-26/fear-walking-dead-american-police-state-takes-aim
The Zombie hoards descend on the District of Corruption.

Good article. Some years ago at the first preppers conference my wife and I attended one gentleman who sat at our table during the lunch break made a comment concerning Zombies. He said the Zombies will be all those desperate souls who did not prepare and would come in mindless hordes to take your stuff. My reply was at least in that case it would not have to be head shots only.

The Obamabot EBT Zombies are already pouring out of the hoods in the ATL looking for a fresh feast, luckily they will have to go through about 35 miles of people just like me before they reach my AO.

h/t NC Renegade 299days.com/know-thy-enemy-during-the-collapse-part-1-the-unprepared-neighbor/Know Thy Enemy (During the Collapse): Part 1 – The Unprepared NeighborThis guy is your enemy. (During the Collapse, that is.) He doesn’t seem like it; in fact, he looks kind of wimpy. He’s not a jack-booted Homeland Security trooper breaking down your door to take your guns, so he can’t be a threat, right? Wrong. Dead wrong. He’s a bigger threat to most of you than the government. Of course the government will be a threat, especially in urban areas where they will congregate and hold onto power in their fiefdoms. Gangs will also be a threat (more on that in Part 2 of this series). My point is that the guy pictured above – the unprepared neighbor – is the one most likely to actually try to take your stuff and, if neccessary, hurt you and your family. Who is this guy and why is he a threat? He’s the guy who lives next to you. Just an average guy. Maybe you even gently tried to bring up the topic of prepping with him. He looked at you like you were from Mars and said, a little sarcastcially, “Oh, like those people on Doomsday Preppers?” Being a good (feminized) male in the suburbs, he thought preppers were a bunch of right-wing crazies who just had some weird fetish about (icky, icky) guns. He had plenty of opportunities to prepare but spent his time and money on concerts, trendy clothes, and whatever else most of America thinks is more important than taking care of their families in a crisis. Then the Collapse hits. Very soon his high-end grocery store is out of goat cheese and the police are no longer functioning. After the shock and total disbelief wears off, he is terrified. Not just scared, but lose-your-mind hysterical. He’s been awake for several days because of all the gunfire he’s hearing, the baby has been crying, and his wife has been screaming at him for hours to “do something!” (This, of course, is a story in itself because she was the one who told him he can’t have a gun like Todd and Chloe in the 299 Days book series.) Your unprepared neighbor is not thinking rationally. He’s desperate. Studies show that after about 72 hours without food, people – even “nice” ones – will do horrible things to feed themselves and their families. He needs to shut her up, get some food, and feel safe. He’ll do anything to make that happen. Anything. He remembers that conversation he had with you about “having a little bit of food in case the power goes out during the next ice storm.” He remembers seeing you putting a gun into your car that day you went to the shooting range. It all becomes “clear” to him: You need to give him food and a gun. It’s only fair. Besides, he tries to reassure himself, you are a nice guy. You’ll help. He walks over to your place. He’s nervous and scared of what he’ll do. He politely knocks on your door. You don’t know it’s him so you don’t answer – home invasions are happening everywhere and the last thing you want to do is let anyone in. The knocking gets louder. Then even louder; by now, it’s pounding. Who ever it is banging on your door is angry. Finally, you recognize his voice. Should you let him in? How you answer this is a personal choice and depends on the circumstances. However, my point is that you must recognize this guy for what he is: your enemy. That’s kind of harsh, but here’s why. You can’t solve his problem
