We’re Experiencing Issues On A Level In America That We Have Never Before Seen…

-Fake fraudulent and fabricated lies and daily omission of the truth has become news,

-The Covid-19 ‘pandemic’ and Individual Rights violations on a huge scale by government officials eager to enforce draconian laws,

-Mass rioting

-An ongoing attempt at election fraud by ‘Americans’ who hate this country,

-An enormous effort to disarm Americans

-American corporations donating massive amounts of money to anti-American organizations,

-The inability to have a civil discussion of politics or ideology without it turning to violence even in families,

-White people actively advocating the genocide of their own race and acting as the majority race members of a ‘Black Lives Matter’ organization,

-The militant wing of the Communists ANTIFA becoming more and more violent,

Did I cover them all?…what’s next?

Don’t be a willing participant in you, your family and neighbor’s deaths.

Don’t be a willing participant of Globalist plans.

WAKE UP!

I am very concerned – with some justification, for the very survival of our Constitution. Every young woman, and many of generation X, have drunk the revisionist history kool-aid.

Most are convinced that “White Privilege” is real and very important, and that BLM is just a peaceful protest against the murder of George Floyd. They have no idea that the founders are both actual Communists, and have admitted so. They have no idea of the political goals of the movement, which include overthrow of the US government, and destruction of the family unit.

This is not just a fad. We have had two generations of people indoctrinated in high schools and college to believe that not only is America not exceptional, but is actually evil.

Howard Zinn’s hit-piece on the US “A People’s History of the United States” is a complete diatribe against America and against European and Western culture. People look at Zinn’s writing as “the real truth” and ignore all of the evidence that America is a good nation and overall an extremely positive force in the world.

We must win this election. Otherwise there is real danger that we will lose the 2nd Amendment. The Democratic candidate has made statements that show this is his intent. I don’t need to say more than that.

The most important thing we can do other than vote – is to do what we can to educate our youth, and try to re-enter universities and high school teaching positions to change the narrative being fed to our young.

I use my Facebook page and blog to try and convince as many friends as possible about the goodness of America, and the falsehood of the leftist narrative.

We are moving backwards in almost every area of life – not forward. The exception being technology, and of course, that crown isn’t sitting on America’s head any longer.

Possibly the most frightening thing is the recalled conversation with an old friend who died many years ago. She was a German and her family escaped just before the fall of the Reich. I asked her “how will we know when America is close?” Her answer –

“EVERYTHING will become political. Every news story you read, or hear on the radio, no matter the subject, will have a political slant.

Sermons will become political speeches as patriotism and duty to country, becomes the new religion. Music, theater and art, all political. Where you shop, the type of car you drive, the style and brands of clothes you wear, your hairstyle, even your shoes, all political.

Secondly, the rise of corruption in the judicial system and the police state. Those who are elected officials, wear a military uniform or a badge, are exempt from the laws they enforce on others, and their lives will be seen as more valuable than those of civilians, even when those civilians are also party members themselves.”

I asked her, based on what she saw of America at the time, when she expected we might reach this point. This was at the height of the cold war in the early 80’s and her answer was, “after the turn of the century but before you die.”

When I asked her what I could be doing personally to prevent that she said, “there is nothing you can do get out now.”

“If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on earth.” -Ronald Reagan

If the recent lockdown should have shown us anything, it is how fragile our “just-in-time” distribution system is. This time it was some minor inconvenience with toilet paper and household bleach. What will you and your family do the next time?

We can learn much from the American pioneers. From the pioneer provision list, to seed saving and their cooking equipment and recipes, we are wise to take note of techniques and tools used by the pioneers who “bugged out” West from 1840-1890 along the Oregon Trail.

Mormon pioneers were the emergency preparedness and food storage masters of their time! Author Caleb Warnock, in his book, The Forgotten Skills of Self-Sufficiency Used by the Mormon Pioneers, shows you the first hand skills you’ll need. Learn to cultivate the pioneer’s independence to provide against lost wages, harsh weather, economic recession, commercial contamination and shortages, as you strengthen your family’s self-reliance.

Pioneer Lesson #1: Make a provision list.

Pioneers bring many survival lessons, starting with their provision list. Pioneers knew they could not depend on foraging for food or hunting alone along the trail, so before heading on the journey, pioneers relied on the knowledge of fur trappers to guide them on foods and supplies to bring.

Pioneer women didn’t write much about food along the trails, as they felt food was a rather mundane topic. Thankfully, however, men found food a worthwhile to write about, so we know pioneers packed plenty of dried goods, including dried meats, sugar, molasses, salt, and spices, as well as flour, cornmeal, oats, dried apples, coffee and tea. The following is an actual provision list modified to take into account modern provisions:

Enough highly portable, long term food storage, to last an entire winter. Long term explorers, miners, and trappers would pack in 600/lbs per man, and they would include dried fruits, veggies, and salt pork.

A modernized list would include freeze dried components, and run more to 450 lbs. This could be stretched an entire year if you add wild fish and game.

One year Grub Stake List (450 lbs),

60 lbs Flour,

40 lbs Bisquick mix,

50 lbs Oatmeal,

25 lbs Corn Meal,

100 lbs Rice,

25 lbs Pinto Beans,

50 lbs Pasta (Spaghetti Noodles, Elbow Mac),

25 lbs Coffee,

25 lbs Salt,

10 lbs Sugar,

1 gal Honey,

1 gal Maple Syrup,

12 lbs Jam (Strawberry/Grape/Berry),

1 Gal Crisco,

3 L Olive Oil,

1 lbs Baking soda,

1 lb Baking powder,

4 lb Yeast,

1 lb Corn starch,

Vanilla, 1 Bottle,

Ketchup 2 Bottles,

Spices-Garlic/Pepper/Chilli/Oregano,

Hot cocoa mix

Tea bags,

365 Multi/Vitamin C,

4 #10 Cans Entrees, 1 ea, Beef Stew, ChiliMac, Lasagna, Spaghetti.

4 #10 Cans Freeze Dried (Onions/G Peppers/Tomato paste/Potatoes),

4 #10 Cans Freeze Dried milk/Butter/Cheese/Eggs,

THIS IS PER PERSON

Lesson #2: Fire and cooking.

Cooking over an open fire was dangerous for pioneer women and the children who gathered around the fire. Pioneer women, and the girls who tended the cooking, wore their hair tightened in a bun. Additionally, pioneer women wore bonnets not only to keep their unkempt hair as orderly as possible, but also to cook over an open flame. They also wore heavy wool clothing to protect themselves from flying sparks.

With luck I will continue this topic next week.

You can discount this information if you choose, but consider what the consequences would be for you and your family if the local supermarket was barren like those in Venezuela.
