The bullseye.The core. The most important in your life. #2- The people you trust outside your immediate family. 3rd- The rest of that group. 4. Friends. Relatives. Neighbors. Coworkers. Affiliates. The Maybes. 5. Everyone else.
I have all my things for survival buried in a nature preserve miles away from me and the barn I mainly stay, this way in case of looters or a raid, ha ha suckas, ain't gettin my shit. Also I don't know how to describe how to get there and I don't know how to get there on a map, but I can physically retrieve my things, so threats and or torture won't get anyone anywhere. I must physically travel to the location and not verbally tell how, ha ha suckas ya ain't gettin a thing, mental is better than any record written down.

Your GI Joe are classic 3 3/4 and are amazing condition! I like your choices of characters in relation to your sphere of trust. But you have a spy in your inner circle! Lol 😂
Good point, it also reminds that one thing that everyone must do, is to know if their family even care about prepping, or if they can really be trusted when hunger and panic strikes for real. unless you are prepared to die because of their mistakes. Like many, I'm all alone in that one.
It continues to stun me that I come across videos I’ve not seen. I can only think RU-vid purposely doesn’t show your important vids. You’re right screwtube seems to be punishing you. Don’t stop.
very good. it's important to think about these people & the circles each person occupies. my only question is...do you really want Anybody in ring 3 that you cannot trust with your family's life? ring 2 & 3 are vital to your security. maybe a strong 2nd will allow for a more questionable ring 3?
3 is close to two, but it's smart to question it to a certain degree. Some of the people in the 3rd ring may not be people you would associate with otherwise if they were not already part of that group, (i.e. people in your unit if you were military).
sometimes even your family isnt even in a circle.. if they are completely brainwashed by facebook and the mainstream media there is no getting to them.. no matter what- unless you pull a clockwork orange on them with eyelids taped open and have them watch everything real to denounce what brainwashing they have been succumbed to.
So true, if my family had acted normal on several occasions,and played fair instead of trying to do each other out of things,I wouldn't be doing this stupid government talking head job today...
Been going through this mentally for the last two months. After I found out some people that I THOUGHT I could trust were not who they appeared to be. trust but VERIFY.
Food for thought, the only people you can truly count on are the people who have been through life with you for MANY decades and have not betrayed you. Everyone else is a suspect and should be treated as such.
How small of a group are you talking about? Everyone has to sleep eventually, I would prefer enough people to keep watch over me and our supplies so I can get a good night of beauty sleep.
Its sad my best friend won't get onboard with me with this prepping shit even though he has about 6 kids and no emergency provisions concerning food and water but who always makes gestures that he will rely on me if and when shit hits the fan. I won't tell him that i only am willing 2 take care of me and mine becuz every time he wants to get on board, his fat ass wife keeps talking him out of it and making me sound like a crazy person.
+Penny University absofuckinglutly. I told exactly what his mind frame is going to be in and who he's going to think about when I shit does happen and I told him if not on board now I can't take care of your family and neglect mine cuz my supplies won't last long. and I told him if he can't take my advice that he can't take my food
Excuse me, but I have to tell my criticisms. I do not think, that your system would nearly work for everybody, at least not how you showcased yours. In itself it is a great idea to get oneself an inner list of the importance of people around oneself and organize them after priority. So one has not to plan in the situation of need so there is time for something else and one does less mistakes. But what you probably could have done better, from my perspective, would have been to tell, that your schema is related to your situation and your life. Indeed one might notice this, but I don't think it's hard to clarify. Because also it might get one in pressure if they don't have a group like you told of about the third circle. I don't know how the situation is in the US but in Germany it is quite seldom to be in such an environment. Militias are completely restricted and there are not that many firefighters, soldiers or policemen and -women around. And even if I'd be in such an environment I wouldn't necessarily trust them more then other people. Maybe it's just because I don't really like most people, who knows. I'd rather put my friends and relatives in the second circle, and people who I kinda know like neighbours, co-workers or classmates in the third. Maybe this comes from a different mindset about who is my friend...
dog you can trust more than people often I got say kind lone wolf, no family member can be healthy for this, or they lack younger mind set hate this stuff, and would committed you for this stuff.
this is the ideal situation, when everybody acts in the way expected. at the center id put the head of the house and if the stories i hear are true, that able and well trained men fold together like cotton candy in water when the battle begins then that does concern me. how is an ordinary/ untrained person to cope. its really tempting to make all the figures interact with one another ;)
I hope you have kids. Otherwise I am curious how you had all those toys lol. But great demonstration tool. I have a guy thats in my outer circle. I don't like him personally. But I trust him with my life, and he does me. That's what counts. We can count on each other when SHTF. So when vetting people for your group. Keep in mind you don't need to LIKE them. Hell ask any military person lol
I live by the rule of thumb that anyone who acts like a piece of shit during "good times" is NEVER going to become a decent human being after SHTF. I think many people are going to get harmed or even killed by trying to defend/care for someone that isn't worth defending/caring for, but they will waste effort and resources on them out of friendship or blood relation. I know who ALL the snakes are in my family, I don't keep any "frien-emies" in my circle.
Dogs have many uses. They dont plot against you and they cant be bought if treated well. Can you say the same of your family and friends? I know i can't.
i dont trust a single person in my life... not even my family.. I am the one breathing oxygen.. I trust my lungs to keep breathing and nothing else.. if family wants to join.. let them come.. but ultimately I have to survive.. and I sure as hell wont have myself killed defending someone in my family that is not willing to jump on the train and thinks they are in for a free right through shtf.. wrong answer.. you just became a fucking shield.. sorry i love you and all.. but i love breathing better.
I have more respect for a person like ItsaFrap who is at least honest in their outlook vs these lovey dovey, lets hold hands and feed everyone after SHTF types of people when in reality they might turn around and eat your children as soon as they are hungry enough. I have plenty of people in my Family I wouldn't trust with a 10 foot pole.
@ Pirate Magician: Study the Constitution. It describes what government is responsible for and how it will conduct it's business. The " Bill of Rights " specifically protects " The People " from government overreach. One can easilt support and defend the Constitution while being wary of government.
