Yes, I have been watching preppers.. it's partly responsible for my getting offa my duff and taking some action.
I saw a battery operated UV sterlizer 2 days ago at Costco.
Hmmmm
I was reviewing solar ovens today. Dang, I made one of those when i was a kid, out of a box and some aluminum foil. I'm thinking about the Global Sun Oven for the backyard. Preety cool stuff actually. I also want a WaterBob.
Even though I have a small 15 ft above ground pool.

I've got lots of pocket knives and a generator.
I'm looking into some bulk dry goods too. A starter kit anyways. A few months of dry goods isn't that much to have on hand actually. Perhaps some N95 masks. Definitely need more first aid stuff. Gotta stock up on some penicillin in the fridge.
Or I could just rely on the government to come to my aid. MuuahahahhahaLOLOLOL.
Photos of peeps in Texas at the Superdome come to mind.
Got my metal detector ready ... just need a small Geiger counter now.
Oh... and I need to build a small Faraday cage to protect my radio from EMP.

Didja know that one good sized nuke over the mid west at about 30,000 feet will emit an nice EMP..... enough to knock out 80-90 of the US. F••K.

Crap....gotta run...I think I just heard someone in my backyard.....

And the cold war powers thought we needed thousands of these things..

Oh my this is turning into a survivalist thread.

If you are just now realizing this... then it's too late.. you're dead.

Back to Zimmerman, has been denied bond in his pre-trial hearing. Sounds like things are beginning to be taken seriously.


It would seem nearly impossible to find 12 American citizens who don't have at least a cursory knowledge of this case. Heck I'm all the way over here, usually quite behind on such stuff, and I know quite a bit. Maybe they can finally unfreeze some of those people in cryogenic freezes for an unsullied jury? Freezing oneself should not absolve someone from jury duty.

I'm actually of the mind that he may be innocent.

Either way...we all have to remember..it's going to boil down to one thing....

Reasonable doubt.

lol

Heard something on MSNBC that it could go to a judge and not jury simply because almost NO one hasn't heard of this. IN that case, the Judge wouldn't need "beyond reasonible doubt" to convict, but just a reasonable proof that Zimmerman acted irresponsible in a moment of derangement. I don't understand all the legal implications, but that was one comment from a "legal expert".

This is very similar in publicity to the OJ trial.

"I'm actually of the mind that he may be innocent."

Of course. But I am glad he is in custody, which he should have been much earlier, bond or no.

The police do that here all the time as well. They would book someone, just take photos and finger prints and then release them. A week or 2 later they would pick them up, I guess that give them time to investigate.

Anyway,
Remember the police cannot hold anyone after 24 hours, without charges.
