My last reply because you obviously feel the need to stroke your epenis and this will never end ...
You keep throwing out different scenarios - I addressed each one.
Since you're obviously having a hard time following the thread, I'll spell it out for you one last time ...
1. In the case of a minor situation with minor inconveniences, my cash will buy me whatever I may need that I don't have handy. Fact.
Fact. You typically don't know when a "Minor or Major" inconvenience is going to happen. This CAN depend on where you live. I can obviously tell when a hurricaine is coming, but you can't tell where its going to hit. Hurricaine Rita came after Katrina...and everybody evacuated.
I was in the car for 17 hours, to get about hour away from the coast. You know what happened? The hurricaine turned, and missed our house and hit more north. So I evacuated for nothing. Even worse, some people evacuated their houses to avoid the hurricaine, and the hurricaine HIT where they evacuated to.
THEN, after Rita just made everyone evacuate....and it missed us only to hit where people evacuated to....hurricaine IKE came...and so a lot of people didn't sit in their cars for 17 hours...they stayed home. Not because they were helpless...because its a mindless hurricane....and not everyone has pilots for brothers, with fleets of helicopters to come pick them up.
So people stayed home....the hurricane hit, and you had to survive. Responsible people, had generators water and canned food. Other people died, because they thought they would be able to buy what they needed when the time came, like you...the problem is that 1000 thousand other idiots do the same thing, then everything is wiped out and there was not enough food and water to go around, or to buy.
2. In a major catastrophe such as Ike or Katrina I would use my satellite phone to call someone to get my ass out of there. I happen to have a brother and other friends who are pilots who could pick me up anywhere, any time. I'd have to hang out for 24 hours tops while I waited for my ride out. Fact.
(Don't have a brother who is a pilot? Use your brain and make some calls and figure out a way to have someone pick your ass up,
Oh....is it that simple? Gee whiz...why didn't 3 million other Americans figure that shit out. You see, there is a little monkey wrench in your cute little plan, that doesn't include millions of crazy people all trying to figure shit out at the last minute too....and all trying to drive...or have people drive and come get them on limited driving space.
It doesn't work that way, I've been through it. You've obviously not, so please stop giving people retarded advice.
...or make other arrangements that will ensure your safety and comfort.
Yeah, thats what I've been fucking saying the whole time, can you not read, or are you intentionally being obtuse? I said....always have some basic prep....so if an emergency happens...you can survive until its over...someone comes and helps you (even if its in a helicopter)...or to last you as you travel to where help is. What exactly is it about that advice, that you disagree with?
3. In a doomsday/WW3/zombie type situation all bets are off and I would do anything necessary to ensure my safety and the safety of those I care about. That would probably include banding together with other like minded people and killing bad guys to take their shit. Fact.
You're missing the point. FACT. This isn't the movies, and almost nobody will have food long...because most people, like you...don't prepare. There are no bands of people running around with a bunch of food to steal from.
If they are running around trying to steal food..its because they dont have any. And apparently neither do you, so the only people you can get food from....is the people that prepared. And t hey will probably have guns too. So you'll have to murder THEM and steal THEIR food. Which makes YOU the bad guy.
Yeah your posts do make you sound utterly helpless. YOU are the one talking about being stuck in your own house, not being able to walk outside, and having to wait weeks for someone to come and save you. These are all your words, not mine. So yeah, you basically do sound like a little pussy.
Yeah, we were stuck in our house because we didn't know where the fucking hurricaine was going to hit...and there was LINES of HOURS and HOURS of traffic jams outside.
The previous hurricane MISSED our house...and hit where other people evacuated TO. I wasn't a pussy, nor was I helpless...I just wasn't fucking Storm from the X-men...able to control the weather or predict where giant hurricanes hit.
A lot of people died, lost their houses and had their lives ruined..not because they were pussies or helpless. You're a fucking idiot, go fuck yourself.
Don't talk to me anymore about shit you have no clue about. Go sip your fuckin mojito's and wish about having more time to learn how to fight.
