Last minute preparation for RIOT SEASON
Who is going to count the ballots?
The election is a couple of weeks off.
President Trump has recently survived 3 or 4 assassination attempts.
Two major hurricanes, and associate tornadoes and floods, recently pounded the Southeast of America.
Huge numbers of people generally despise people of the other political party.
Millions of illegal immigrants are plaguing the country, with widespread murders, stealing, rape, beatings, etc.
BLM and Antifa are ready to RIOT and burn down American cities again.
Iran, North Korea, Hamas, Russia, Hezbollah, China and others have intentions to divide America.
So, you have less than two weeks to put up your preparation before RIOT SEASON! Amazon, Walmart, Brownells, Palmetto State Armory, KYGUNCO and Optics Planet should suffice most of what can help you survive and, or, thrive.
Food- You better get shelf stable and long-term food to be able to last about a month. You may lose power, run out of gasoline and the ATMs could be out of money. Store propane, charcoal, etc.
Water- If you don’t have a well, prepare 10 cases of water, a Berkey water filter, iodine (for water purification) and a Lifestraw. I was so happy during the hurricanes that I had a 55gal barrel and a 25gal jug of fresh water.
Medicine- Prepare to have a month’s supply of prescriptions and over the counter medicine. DRUGS!
Cash- Gather as much cash as you can in case ATMs and credit cards don’t work. MONEY!
First Aid- Update your first-aid kit. Beef it up if you can, add some tourniqets, Quickclot, Pedialyte(for dehydration) and a chest seal for gunshot or stabbing injuries.
Night Vision(I2)- Due to the Ukraine and Russia War there is a shortage of military Night Vision image intensified equipment. You can get a PVS-14 (single eyepiece monocular) or PVS-7(dual eye pieces) from companies like Steele Industries, TNVC, Ultimate Night vision, US Night Vision. You can also buy a rifle sight that you can put on right in front of your day scope. There is a lower price, new CMOS digital technology night vision, called Sionyx.
Thermal Imaging- is a bonus to Night vision. It uses an infrared detector and a germanium lens to capture people, animals and all other heat sources. People trying to sneak up on you won’t be able to and you can observe animals, cars and people long before you can be spotted. Pulsar, ATN, Infiniray and AGM are a few big providers. You can get head mounted, hand-held and rifle mounted. This is a great force multiplier.
Body Armor- These are the primary types of body armor available.
Level IIA: Defeats lower velocity 9mm and .40 S&W ammunition.
Level II: Defeats higher velocity .357 Magnum and 9mm ammunition.
Level IIIA: Defeats high-velocity 9mm and .44 Magnum ammunition.
Level III: Defeats 7.62mm/.308Win FMJ lead core rifle ammunition. This hard armor.
You are a number of providers you can find onlin
e
Guns- You will need to be able to protect yourself, your lovedones, your animals and property.
Shotgun- I highly recommend the first acquisition should be a 12 ga shotgun(20 ga). Without a lot of training, most adult people should be able to master a shotgun. Very useful for standing off a mob or criminals.
Handgun-Next, I suggest you acquire a pistol, concealable and available to get into action. I recommend the smallest gun considered should be a revolver in .38SPL (S&W, Ruger, Taurus, and Colt a well-known brands). More common today there a ton of semiauto9mm’s. (Glock, Springfield, Sig-Sauer, Taurus, S&W are proven) Finally, semiautos are known for more knockdown; .45ACP’s also known as 1911’s. (S&W, Ruger, Taurus, Glock, Springfield and more
)
Semiauto Rifle-We have less than two weeks. An AR-15 is accurate, lightweight and effective. It you have a RIOT coming to your home, you may be able to dissuade them quickly. You can accurately spread 30 freedom pills in a short instant and reload in a jiffy. On Palmetto State Armory and KYGUNCO you can get AR’s for less than $400 all the way to well more than $1000
.
Ammunition-Buy at least 300 rounds of 5.56mm for AR-15’s, at least 100-200 12 ga shells and 100 9mm rounds. Better buy now before the next shortage erupts.
Please get yourself, your family and your friends prepared. Good luck during this year’s RIOT season. I hope you don’t how to go through Kyle Rittenhouse’s trauma; but if it comes down to it, be decisive!
