Will Obama Close Congress?

Could Obama close Congress and convene a Constitutional Convention in which a new constitution is formulated, but also a new Congress with new (unelected) representatives and a new more powerful executive?

Far out?

It already happened in Venezuela and Ecuador.

It seems to be the modus operandi for the Marxist takeover of Latin America and Africa as one nation after another follows this same pattern.

And here is how it works:

A new leftist leader takes power (like Obama).

A ‘referendum’ is held to have ‘the people’ decide for the need of a new Constitutional Convention in order to modify the existing constitution.

The referendum is approved by ‘popular’ vote.

The Constitutional Convention happens.

Instead of the local constitution being simply modified…a totally new constitution is created and approved.

The Constitutional Convention then instead of disbanding, turns around and declares the seated Congressmen as null and void under the new Constitution and seat new representatives in their place.

The capital police is then called to encircle the congressional building and keep the legitimate congressmen out in the street as the new ‘congressmen’ seat themselves.

New ‘elections’ are rapidly held to seat the new Congress under the new Constitution.

These ‘elections’ are crooked and illegitimate and facilitated by electronic voting and tallying machines.

The new Congress then opens its doors the following day beaming at the newly empowered President and giving him full support.

The whole operation is nothing but a glorified coup enforced by the capital police and tolerated by a military that is either bought out, infiltrated or clueless.

It’s also an act that could easily result in civil war – local authorities and armed forces might not see the new government as illegitimate.

So far no civil war has erupted in countries where it has taken place.

But think about it.

Could it happen here?

Talk is already in the air about OUR Constitution being obsolete - about America needing a new Constitution for modern times.

Bush called the Constitution ‘a piece of paper.’

Obama seems to have no regard for it.

The American People have no idea what’s in it.

The states regularly toss their 9^th and 10^th Amendment rights at the feet of the federal government.

We already have a Marxist President - just like Ecuador and Venezuela do.

So why not?

The key event here is ‘constitutional convention.’

And the truth is the workings of an upcoming Constitutional Convention are well underway…

…by the treacherous states themselves.

Did you know that 32 of the 34 states required to launch a constitutional convention have already signed up to request one?

This has been happening in a very low key fashion between the 1975 and 1982.

Did you know all those ‘requests’ have no expiration date, but are cumulative until the ¾ majority is reached?

Did you know that only New York and California’s refusal to apply is keeping the ‘convention’ from happening?

Well now you know.

I always considered a new Constitutional Convention in this country a joke until I started noticing Marxist governments using the method time after time to gain absolute power in countries within Africa and Latin America.

All without much fanfare from the American or European media.

Good examples of the method are illustrated  by the fall of Ecuadorian and Venezuelan democracies to Marxist dictatorship via what they called “constitutional assemblies” – their word for a constitutional convention.

Let’s look at the standard methodology of swiping away representative government.


We really must look closely at the examples of Venezuela and Ecuador BECAUSE THE EXACT SAME THING COULD HAPPEN HERE.


The people running the show here now are the same people running the show in those two defunct democracies (closet Marxists).

President Chavez coups the Venezuelan Government and Constitution in 1999:

Complaining that the original constitution lacked enough protections for ‘the people’ Chávez called for a referendum to approve the call for a new constitutional convention .

During the referendum an amazing 90% of participating voters approved the need for a constitutional convention [results were supplied by crooked Diebold electronic voting machines owned by Chavista allies].

Following this approval, a special election was held in which the members of the constitutional convention were elected.

Of the candidates standing for election to the constitutional convention, half were opponents of Chávez. In spite of this, Chavez supporters got 95% of the seats to the convention [through the use of Diebold electronic voting machines owned by Chavez cronies].

With this crookedly elected majority of ‘Chavistas’ making up the constitutional convention, the convention voted to give themselves the power to abolish government institutions (because a new constitution might require this) and dismiss government officials (which inhabited said abolished government institutions).

So basically what you had was a convention filled with closet Marxists with the power to abolish the Venezuelan Government.

The constitutional convention put together a new constitution which concentrated government in and gave unprecedented powers to the president.

A second referendum was then held on whether to adopt the new constitution or not.

Disillusioned with the canned voting results, half of the voting population did not even bother to vote in this second referendum.

Of those voting, 72% approved the new constitution [again through the use of fraudulent Diebold electronic voting machines].

The new constitution increased the presidential term to six years and converted the bicameral legislature into a communistic unicameral ‘National Assembly’ – and eliminating all competing ‘branches of government.’

The new constitution increased the powers of the presidency by extending its term and empowering the president with the power of issuing executive orders on civil rights, economic affairs and financial matters –  in effect it empowered a government based on executive mandate.

It also charged the Army with maintaining public order as a tool of the president.

The new constitution basically transformed Venezuela into a military dictatorship under Chavez.

[paragraph transcribed from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_chavez]

The country of Ecuador suffered its own constitutional crisis and resolution in 2007 which seemed to have been drawn from the same game plan as Venezuela.

President Correa Abolishes the Constitution and Closes Congress in 2007:

Following several criticisms of Ecuador’s Constitution, President Correa proposed a referendum on whether to hold a constitutional convention in order to effect changes.

Congress approved the idea for a referendum.

As the referendum was taking place, President Correa modified the "statutes" of the referendum (illegally) to giving much more power to the constitutional convention than originally stated.

One of these powers was the ability to dismiss Congress.

The referendum passed (once more through the use of Diebold electronic voting machines).

The newer version of the referendum’s only call to legitimacy was its approval by the newly appointed seven-seat Electoral Tribunal which was to rule on all matters related to the referendum and convention.

Congress reacted by trying to impeach the President of the Electoral Tribunal.

The electoral tribunal then removed the 57 members of Congress responsible for the attempted impeachment.

The situation escalated to a feud between the opposition in Congress and the President and his supporting Electoral Tribunal, ending with police intervention to prevent the Congressmen from entering the legislative building.

Congressmen and women trying to reenter the Congress were literally beat into the ground by capital police.

Alternate deputies were sworn in to replace the expelled congressmen.

The new majority pledged to support the referendum on the Constitutional Assembly.

Ecuador’s Supreme Court made a move to reinstate 51 of the 57 Congressmen who had been removed by the Electoral Tribunal’s mandate, but before the congressmen had the chance to reenter the legislature, the new Congress removed all nine judges of the Supreme Court.

Correas ascendancy to power had been dominated by masses of ‘demonstrators’ who surrounded, threatened and even beat up judges, congressmen and bureaucrats without any police interference.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rafael_Correa)

Please note how in all the above cases it is the newly created ‘assemblies,’ ‘tribunals’ and and ‘conventions’ which usurp the power of the duly constituted congress.

It is the newly appointed or elected institutions designed to  carry out and uphold the convention that end up getting rid of the government.

A Constitutional Convention is an institution that is a lot more powerful than the name originally suggests.

It HAS to be powerful because it is charged with two duties:

1)    write a new constitution

2)    enforce the adoption of the new constitution by carrying out the necessary changes in the structure of government.

Without the second power, a Constitutional Convention is basically just a think tank.

You can bet that when the new Constitution was ratified in 1789, the existing unicameral 13 member National Congress that existed under the Articles of Confederation was shut down – probably by a polite ARMED guard.

It is this POWER of the Constitutional Convention that is never taken into serious consideration.

A Constitutional Convention is given the power not only to write a new constitution, but to enforce its adoption.

Frequently this means an abolition of existing government institutions.

This is a necessary part of the convention process.

Let me put it another way.

What would happen if a constitutional convention creates a new constitution which does not include a supreme court…and the supreme court refuses to step down.

What happens now? Nothing? Does a stand off develop?

No.

Under these circumstances, the supreme court is vacated by FORCE under the order of the Convention.

Now let me refer you to another very erudite gentlemen.

Vincent Gioia is an astute and informed observer of the Constitutional scene.

Below is an edited version of what he has written in his blog at

http://vincentgioiasblog.blogspot.com/2008/12/constitutional-convention-there-are-no.html

I highly recommend you visit this site and see what this author has to say about an upcoming Constitutional Crisis.

For now here is an edited version of what he talks about in his website:

Vincent Gioia writes on the dangers of a Constitutional Convention:

The point is that at a Constitutional Convention anything can happen and any prior agreements agreed upon by states or limitations imposed by states as a condition for approval have no meaning.

In other words, if there is a Constitutional Convention the one we have lived with for over two hundred years and which guarantees our individual rights can be scrapped and replaced by the people gathered at the convention with no recourse by the states or the people.

Article V of the Constitution is the basis for a Constitutional Convention:

“The Congress, whenever two thirds of both Houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose Amendments to this Constitution

or

on the Application of the Legislatures of two thirds of the several States, shall call a Convention for proposing Amendments…

…which, in either Case, shall be valid to all Intents and Purposes, as Part of this Constitution, when ratified by the Legislatures of three fourths of the several States, or by Conventions in three fourths thereof…as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress…provided that no State, without its Consent, shall be deprived of its equal Suffrage in the Senate.”

Pay special attention to the second method of ratification: "by Conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other Mode of Ratification may be proposed by the Congress."

This seems to allow the congress by a simple majority vote to propose either form of ratification: either by 3/4 of the state legislatures, or 3/4 of "conventions" in the states.

Although Amendments to the Constitution until now originated in Congress and were circulated to the states for ratification…

…Article V says that an alternative to this procedure is for two thirds of the states to call for a Constitutional Convention at which the constitution may be amended or rewritten.

A call for a Constitutional Convention requires only 34 states.

At present 32 states have issued a call by their legislators.

So if two more states approve,  our individual rights and freedom from government control of our lives could be ended.

A careful reading of Article V shows there is no provision for selecting attendees to the Convention.

Do the states choose who will represent them, or does congress?

Who picks the members of the "state conventions?"

How are delegates selected? How are the rules governing these state conventions determined?

Are the "state conventions" held in the individual states, or by delegates sent to the Constitutional Convention?

Will the U.S. Supreme Court be the final arbiter of these questions?

Although Alabama, Florida, and Louisiana, have rescinded their applications, under Article V of the Constitution, Congress must still call a Constitutional Convention whenever 2/3 (or 34) of the states apply.

The Constitution makes no provision for rescission.

Furthermore, with the precedents of disallowing of the rescinding of votes for ratification, and the extending of deadlines, it seems like almost any outcome could be attained, including an entirely new Constitution.

Some are of the belief that advocates of the convention are waiting to capture just two more states.

They can challenge the other states’ rescissions in the courts while going ahead with the Convention.

Congress alone then decides whether state legislatures or state conventions ratify proposed amendments (see Article V above).

If there is no expiration date, all of the calls for a Constitutional Convention regarding a Balanced Budget that were initiated in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s are still valid.

There is legal precedent for this.

For example, the Twenty-seventh Amendment was proposed in 1789 and ratified more than 200 years later in 1992.

On May 20, 1992, both houses of Congress adopted concurrent resolutions accepting the 27th Amendment’s unorthodox ratification process as having been successful and valid.

Certainly many of us want government constrained by a balanced budget. But attempting to accomplish this by means of a Constitutional Convention risks a revolutionary change in our form of government.

Despite the fact that these states premised their call for a Constitutional Convention on the desire to have an Amendment requiring a balanced budget, it should be clear by now that once a Constitutional Convention is in session any and all changes to the Constitution may be proposed an offered for passage, thereby revising the constitution in ways not anticipated by states calling for a convention.

What may be at risk if socialists and liberals dominate the Convention; very likely the Second Amendment, revision of the First Amendment; and abolish the 4th, 5th, and 10th Amendments, and the rest of the Bill of Rights.

Tom DeWeese, who runs the center and its education and grassroots work, told WorldNet Daily the possibilities [of a Constitutional Convention] stunned him. "In truth no restrictive language from any state can legally limit the scope or outcome of a Convention!

Once a Convention is called, Congress determines how the delegates to the Convention are chosen.

Once chosen, those Convention delegates possess more power than the U.S. Congress itself."

Remember too that Barack Obama believes the Constitution is flawed and says the Supreme Court should have intervened years ago.

It must be kept in mind that the best way to shut down Congress and keep it closed is through a Constitutional Convention.

Many justifications are being put forth in Washington’s inner circles about the need for a new or modified Constitution.

Many Congressmen like Arizona “Republican” “Conservative” Paul Gosar have already given up on the Constitution (see video below).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U46MkU_-_wE&feature=player_embedded

A new Constitution is needed to address important issues like….

…a constitutionally mandated balanced budget

…more equitable wealth redistribution

…a guaranteed minimum standard of living

…minority rights

…elimination of the 15^th Amendment (which provides citizenship to anyone born here)

…direct election of the presidency (versus the present electoral college system)

The thing about a new Constitutional Convention is that it is a ‘insider’ topic – there is a lot of talk about it in Washington…but hardly any of it reaches the American public…which is kept in the dark by the Illuminati media.

All in all, talk of a Constitutional Convention is taboo – most everybody is clueless when it comes to this topic…including most supposed conspiracy pundits.

So will Obama close Congress?

If he is a Marxist agent, just like President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela and Rafael Correa of Ecuador, why shouldn’t he?

If there is one thing that distinguishes the Illuminati it is a robotic march with tradition.

Basically the same ideology and methodology born in the French Revolution, carried through the Russian Revolution and reaching the Venezuelan and Ecuadorian ‘revolutions’ is probably the same modus operandi planned for us.

Please note that the French and Russian Revolutions both grew out of a ‘constitutional’ change within their respective governments – new governments that basically turned over those countries to the Illuminati.

Again, the modus operandi has not changed.

When you seek what to expect of the Illuminati, the answer in many cases seems to be more of the same.

Expect Obama’s second term to be one of attempted Constitutional change and the abolishment of Congress as we know it.

Survivalism: Keeping It Real (Part-I)

Survivalism has been an American tradition since the 1980’s (arguably since the early 60’s) and it has grown exponentially with the blossoming of Conspiracy awareness.

Unfortunately, the image of ‘survival’ that has formed in the mind of ‘survivalists’ might differ drastically from reality.

I am not going to speak against preparedness or survivalism, but WILL argue against the unreal scenarios many people are imagining.

Which leads to a very important point:

1) Never Confuse Survival with Confrontation

It is important right from the beginning to decide if you are going to attempt survival or confrontation.

Survival consists of surviving against all odds.

Confrontation consists of taking on the enemy regardless of the odds.

In many instances, confrontation requires self-sacrifice. Confrontation is war.

My first point for the survivalist is to never confuse the two.

One path requires your ingenuity, strength, resources, cunning and will to let you and your loved ones survive.

The other path requires your ingenuity, strength, resources, cunning and will to make war on the enemy. It does not necessarily go hand-in-hand with survival, and most definitely does not go hand-in-hand with your family’s well-being.

Survival would include you taking care of your family.

Confrontation would entail you leaving your family (hopefully in safe hands) while you engage in combat.

It is muddled thinking on these lines that leads to a lot of avoidable grief.

I am stressing this one factor because I see too many people confusing survival, family, and confrontation and putting it all in the same pot.

This practice could be preparing a whole lot of unnecessary tragedy and grief for your loved ones (see Randy Weaver and Waco).

The way things are today, I am 100% for confrontation, but I am totally against people being deluded by the (government-sponsored?) fantasy that they can confront government forces while taking care of the safety of their families.

What the heck, at first opportunity, the government will use your own family's survival as a trump against YOU, which is what they have done throughout history by threatening the well-being of those residing with you and then taking them as hostages.

And one more thing.

I take issues with governments who expect people to ‘die for their country’ but treat people who are ready to die for their own ideals as lunatics. The true lunatics are people who give up their lives in furthering the causes of corrupt governments.

Having made the distinction between ‘survival’ and ‘confrontation’, let us continue.

I believe the fantasy-like aspect of some of these scenarios may disintegrate (to the detriment of their believers) once they hit reality head-on.

To see what a ‘collapsed’ society would look like, you need to look at history.

Study Communist Russia, Imperial Japan, Nazi Germany, WW-II, Haiti, Somalia, Rwanda, Africa in General and Afghanistan…

..now imagine yourself and your survival get-up in those scenarios.

For starters, many of the above scenarios require only one major step for survival:

Get Out!

It would have been useless to try to ‘survive’ the Communist Russian Revolution, the Nazi German Revolution, the Communist Chinese Revolution, the Cambodian Revolution or the Rwanda revolution.

These were all unopposed preparations for genocide.

Your best ‘survival’ decision in these cases would have been simply to GET THE HELL OUT.

On the other extreme you have Somalia and Afghanistan.

I don’t even understand why those places figure in maps as countries.

It’s probably because they are being held together by the UN, international aid…and map companies which keep drawing those places as a country.

Starvation, thirst, violence and death have been their long-time reality.

Guess what.

They still have governments!

It seems that governments at this extreme level of collapse begin to consist of “warlords” who control what amounts to armed gangs.

So you see, government just doesn’t seem to go away!

No matter what the stage of deprivation of a country, the government persists!

The only good news is that the deprivation is a stage.

It will end…sooner or later.

Realistically, you must ask yourself:

“What you will do to get through this stage of deprivation and suffering…

… so you can come out alive on the other end?”

Ergo the first lesson:

2) Think of the crisis as a TEMPORARY SITUATION which has a beginning and an end through which you and yours will have to survive

This puts a realistic time frame in your planning.

One year is an achievable time frame (though it will require heavy preparation as to food stocks, etc).

But keep the mobile option always at the back of your mind.

As mentioned before, there are special out-of-control situations in which it is simply better to leave, not dig in (Nazi Germany, Communist Revolutions, Fukushima, a nuclear strike, a meteor strike, your home becoming part of a battlefield etc)

3) Expect and be prepared to deal with GOVERNMENT PRESENCE

Governments are like cockroaches.

They exist and prevail in the worse of calamities and circumstances.

Whether your looking at Afghanistan, Somalia or Leningrad, 1941 (outright cannibalism)you have some sort of government surviving in the worse of possible conditions, and this includes conditions of mass starvation, thirst and death.

Government, like the Jonestown enforcers always seem to be above it all.

So expect some sort of government or enforcement group to be throwing its weight around during the time of crisis (even under the worse of circumstances)…and…

…be prepared to deal with it.

I know what follows does not sound macho, but try to understand.

Dealing with it means pretending to go along with whatever the enforcers say while doing your own thing to survive.

Do you have guns? Nope. (you got them hidden away)

Do you have hoarded food? Nope (you have it hidden away)

Is this your only place of residence? Yes (you also got a stashed hideout in the woods)

Get it?

You try to work around them as best you can while making use of your preparation.

I am not saying all this in a cowardly fashion.

Don’t confuse survival with confrontation.

If you and your family are trying to survive, this is what you will have to do – you will have to use the art of concealment and hoarding.

4) Make MOBILITY part of your survival preparedness

Whether it be to another county, another state…or another nation, have a plan, the resources and the will to relocate.

Whatever scenario you look at, things look pretty grim for the individual independent resistor – even in out of the way collapsed places like Somalia or Afghanistan.

Those warlords, once they have fixed your location, will just keep sending heavily armed punks to your compound until you find yourself in an ‘Alamo’ situation (and you know what happened to the Alamo).

This does not portend well for the individual survivalist.

Numbers add strength, they also facilitate doing things like moving, changing location, hiding or standing guard.

Whether you are trying to survive Hitler or Somalia, it pays to have friends about you (whether related or not).

Ergo, the third lesson:

5) Make yourself part of a SURVIVAL GROUP

The more people you have on the same page, the more chances you have of surviving.

It doesn't have to be a giant compound.

You don't even have to live at the same location.

It could simply be a set of nearby families who think and believe as you do and who are willing to help out either with an alternate place to stay, trade, etc.

The bottom line is the more people you have aligning with you as a team, the better your chances are of surviving.

Need to relocate?

Maybe you can convoy with them.

Roadblocks?

Maybe somebody can drive ahead and report to your 'convoy' via walkie talkie.

Camping?

Maybe somebody on their end knows this part of the woods.

The examples are limitless.

Its enough to say that the more people you have preparing and aligning with you to survive, the more resources you will have at your disposal.

Ergo, the sixth lesson:

6) KEEP A LOW PROFILE AND HIDE in whatever way necessary

The next comment is not going to sound very macho either, but remember, we are talking about something much more important than being macho here.

To survive, it frequently becomes important to hide.

Every animal (whether predator or not) uses the art of hiding to accomplish survival.

The survivalist fantasy of openly challenging and surviving all comers is a fantasy.

If you attract attention, you have just cut your chances of survival in half.

Whether trying to survive Stalin, Mao, Hitler, Somalia, Afghanistan an earthquake or Planet-X, keeping a low profile is of utmost importance.

If you attract attention, you will eventually attract undesired attention…whether it be from starving people, criminals, warlords or the government.

You don’t want to brag about your survival preparations.

You don’t want your set up to be noticeable.

Be warned: there are many innocent ways to attract attention in a hostile and deprived environment.

Do you have a big two story house?

Do you live in a fancy neighborhood?

Do you have a large survival stash others know about?

Do you plant your own food on your property?

Do you have a private well others know about?

Do you have a big gun collection others know about?

Do your clothes, car or house display indications of wealth?

Do you display bumper stickers, flags, t-shirts or other items which criticize government?

There are many ways to attract attention, and there are equally as many ways to keep a low profile or even hide.

An ideal hideaway (for those who can accomplish it) would be simply underground and out of the way.

7) Be prepared to SURVIVE EXPOSURE

This means surviving without electricity or gas in the hostile side of climate where you reside.

Remember, this will be a particular challenge where it snows.

You will have to burn wood- a lot of it- to avoid freezing to death. Make sure you have a lot of firewood (or some other fuel) available, accessible or stockpiled. Remember, living trees don’t burn and people can see a chimneys burning for miles. There are some alternatives to chimneys (like wood chip, compacted newspaper or pellet burners) but remember, people will be able smell as well as see your chimney.

Surviving in Winter without gas or electricity is hardcore and requires serious preparation. On the other hand, snow and freezing weather discourages undesirables.

An alternate solution to toughing it out in the snow is to head south.

Many people already are (because they can no longer afford natural gas prices).

A lot of the southern parts of this country suffer no snowfall and maintain temperatures above 50 degrees year long. Check out your daily national weather for details.

8) Have access to WATER

In connection to the above. Many places in which it does not snow, suffer from water deprivation.

Always make sure you have access to water, whether it be from a well, a pond, a canal, a creek or a lake.

Water deprivation will kill you in 4 days.

Water is important.

Stocking up on water is a waste of time and space, especially if you must regularly replace the water in your containers. Even a huge stock will be depleted in less than a year. Think about this.

If you cannot afford a well, then stock up on ceramic filters (Berky is highly recommended) so you can drink from whatever local water source is available.

(Your water heater should be your first source of water once the lights go out)

Remember, many other people will also be drinking from that same water source (and dying from it) because they forgot to stock up on big ceramic water filter systems that work without water pressure.

9) Be prepared to SURVIVE FOR A YEAR

Even the worse of crises end within a year.

This means that after a year (if not before), some sort of societal and government system will reestablish itself and gain authority over you and your neighbors.

The year of crisis is over…and you have survived and reentered society – congratulations.

However…

If all resistance has collapsed and you disagree with the social and political nature of the new system which has established itself, then it is your responsibility to LEAVE (the sooner the better).

Remember, the mobility option is also a part of your survival scheme.

On the other hand:

If the SHTF crisis (and I’m talking massive thirst and hunger) lasts longer than a year, then you’d better start making some plans to become mobile.

Sedentary (immobile) societies exist only when there is plentiful food and water.

Societies which live in deprivation become nomadic.

We are no different.

Cities and towns without food or water become death houses.

If it gets to that point, start thinking about the movie "The Road."

10) Be prepared to HIDE YOUR GUNS

When the great disarmament comes, the government will not have or even be able to handle the data on the millions of gun owners this country has.

Most of the confiscations will be break and take.

They will go through the house, search it and confiscate all weapons.

You can either resist to the death or simply refuse to play the game.

Not playing the game means you have selected, prepared and utilized hiding places for your guns, which are no longer inside your residence.

So that when the government enters your house and searches it, they find nothing.

The guns they said you might have, have been sold for cigarette money…get it?

They can’t tell you any different.

Once the government thugs are gone, you may retrieve them, but always keep them hidden in secret places in or near your home at all times (keeping in mind thethugs might return at some later date).

You will need your gun to protect yourself and to hunt.

And if you are a true patriot, a possible brutal stand against totalitarianism.

Any society in crisis mode is victim to criminal predators, no matter how tight the police presence may be.

Desperate people will do anything to survive, and in crisis mode, they know there won’t be any special investigation into their heinous deeds.

In crisis mode, if you get seen, you get killed.

But if you are not seen, you're home free – no investigation, no questions, no jail time, no punishment., perhaps not even any curiosity about who even committed the crime. The enoforcers just don't have the time for this.

Criminals that understand this become the successful predators in any crisis.

You have to study the history of cities under siege to understand this reality and why crime flourishes in a state of crisis and deprivation in spite of police presence.

Prepare yourself to survive, but do so realistically.

Read the history of what became of other societies in conditions of collapse.

Keep the concepts of Survival at hand:

1) Differentiate survival from confrontation
2) Understand the crisis is temporary
3) Expect government presence
4) Be Mobile
5) Join a survival team
6) Keep a low profile / hide
7) Be prepared to survive exposure
8) Have access to alternate source of water
9) Hide your guns
10) Make survival preparations for 1 year
