The Time for Fooling Around Is Over

A comment from an article concerning protecting your money when the SHTF:

With lots of lead, you can get all that other stuff you need.

Here is a response to the comment:

With lead we can take it from each other?

I have a friend who has prepped none. Why? He has a couple of guns and minimal ammo? Probably not a Godly way to go into this. Pretty sure that is not what you mean, but many will be doing this and are thinking this way. How many have been living this way for years? This is the problem.

The original commenter replied back:

I was being intentionally funny about the use of lead. That should only be used when morally appropriate.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I have been actively trying to fight evil in the government since 2008. The time, money and personal slander against me are irrelevant. The goal is to rebuild a better future after the war(s) and economic collapse. The key is faith in God and morally guided people.

I had a philosophy that all transgressions against me would be forgiven until the collapse happened except for three people whose actions were too egregious to forgive. I used the past tense because we passed that point of the collapse and I now do not forget the actions of people who act and speak without forethought.

I have another point for which I never forget or forgive which I call the one bullet philosophy. When anyone says that all they need is one bullet to survive, it means they will shoot you and steal your supplies and life. I ALWAYS call people out when they say this to me personally. Most of the time, they say they were only fooling. I ALWAYS tell them that you do not fool around with murdering people to steal their personal property.

I want to stress this again, I do not forget or forgive anyone who makes the “one bullet” statement even if I do think they were fooling. What does that mean? It means excommunication from all activities, supplies, information and protection. It means that person cannot be trusted.

I want people to think about what they are saying and doing because the time for fooling around is over.

I agree 100%, I have not come to my conclusions easily, like you I have been in this fight a long time, I have fallen to the notion that we could change things with the vote this time. In my heart I knew this wasn’t true, so the time for fooling around IS over has arrived at our doorstep, we must choose wisely going forward.

I remember the 1 bullet people because when the SHTF comes and they are walking up to my door, there is only one way to answer it. They made their intents clear and I owe it to my family to protect them.

I might even go as far to say precautionary measures need to be taken in an SHTF time for those that I think are not joking.

Last year, I was on a forum in Signal that was a group that is well known in the country. One of those groups that is being targeted by the gubmint. I was in that group only a very short while. Why? Because someone in the group, not a young guy either, someone in their 60’s who was teaching COMMS (he is an HAM guru) and out of the blue he brings up cannibalism. He goes on to say that if needed, if there were no regular food sources, he would resort to this! He states on this forum that he has already done enough in his life to earn him a place in hell. What appalled me even more was that he got 4 or 5 ‘thumbs up’. I left that group so quickly I probably left skid marks. A few days later the President of this group contacts me via email to ask why I left. I had a snapshot of the comments made by this guy and I forwarded them. I never looked back. There are some very sick individuals in this world, pretending to be patriots, that are just waiting for an opportunity to go Mad Max.

These types of people are hard to see sometimes, thank God, he exposed himself, and getting the thumbs up is hard to fathom.

By the way Tom saw this.
The strategy is to continuously inflict damage or cuts to every facet of American society just below the pain threshold where we choose not to act. We believe that China has achieved an estimated 750 cuts towards “death by a thousand cuts.” (Sun Tzu) Definition
i believe you recently spoke of using the death by a thousand cuts.
THE TRUCKERS AND THE MANY ONGOING PROTESTS ARE CUTS. CUTS INTO THE AGENDA, CUTS INTO THE SPEED AT WHICH THE ENEMY IS MOVING.
slowing them down is a cut, slowing them down off of their schedule is a battle, is a strategy.

So should they hide and remain silent?
Should they pack it in and simply start shooting?
Pretty sure they can not arrest all of us, They are like an owl all puffed up but when you grab them they are smaller than you think.
Now if they succeed in their bluff ( which i think they will) That is when the pain begins on a scale unprecedented.
My strategy, ,Drag this out as long as possible God willing of course! Watch how uncomfortable evil is as it is being exposed and revealed to the light! Get others on board and navigate through this mess!
They fear us being in unity.
Why do you think this has come to the U.S. last?

And then what? The gov has shown it doesn’t care what we think, especially since they can tell a majority of us to think what they wish. Support for abortion has increased since Roe v. Wade, support for military intervention in the Ukraine has increased in the past few years as the media pushes it.

It’s possible the gov will abandon the covid nonsense, but covid is only a tactic to achieve a goal. That goal will not be abandoned; new tactics will be thought up to advance that goal which are less galling to the host (us.) Or old tactics; if covid nonsense decreases I predict an increase in global warming hysteria to replace it.

They will never stop until we make them.

First of all it is good to meet you, would you share how you arrived here at NC Renegade? Trying to start things on a good foot.

The Global warming agenda is back on a front burner also, i agree, but where i look for Truth in this regard is The Bible and this site, among others:
One reason i say Bible, The Bible the Truth is compatible with True science, with True history.

A few years back I was training with an Oath Keepers unit. The unit got started because the local militia boys weren’t interested in prepping. They openly stated that they’d just take what they needed. One member, a stand up retired Marine Gunnery Sargent, called them out on that. They wouldn’t budge, so he did. He left and started an Oath Keepers unit. He told us that in a SHTF situation, we would likely have to deal with them. Harshly.
As for forgiveness. I forgive anyone who crosses me. That doesn’t mean I forget. They just become non-persons to me. I no longer recognize their existence. Fool me once … That said, no one has yet physically harmed my kith and kin. That would likely change my reaction.

I’ve always expected to have to deal with non-preppers, as opposed to govt goon squads. Once hunger kicks in, they’ll be looking for easy pickins’. Roving bandits, whatever you wanna call them, will have to be dealt with-harshly.

Some Proverbs come to mind regarding this:

Prov 13:4 The soul of the sluggard craves and gets nothing, while the soul of the diligent is richly supplied.

Prov 15:9 The way of a sluggard is like a hedge of thorns, but the path of the upright is a level highway

Prov 18:9 Whoever is slack in his work is a brother to him who destroys.

Prov 19:15 Slothfulness casts into a deep sleep, and an idle person will suffer hunger.

Prov 21:25 The desire of the sluggard kills him, for his hands refuse to labor.

Prov 24:30-34 I passed by the field of a sluggard, by the vineyard of a man lacking sense, and behold, it was all overgrown with thorns; the ground was covered with nettles, and its stone wall was broken down. Then I saw and considered it; I looked and received instruction. A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest, and poverty will come upon you like a robber, and want like an armed man.

Many more, but you get the gist -- 1 bullet ppl are sluggards and dangerous.

David,
Thank you, and i do believe him. He has been here a while and agree with many of his comments and positions. i do believe many of us get excited in the moment and do not consider how others may receive it.
Sarcasm and humor do not digitally transfer well. i know this because i am a very sarcastic individual and it is also humor to me. My personal face to face friends knows this. They know who i am. When posting in this way i try to add, (sarcasm) or (chuckle.)
Our side needs to be looking at ways to unite, not cancelling each other as the world is pushing. Cancel culture is something we all need to watch.
myself i am taking things very seriously as i believe they are. i do worry at times that i am too serious.
i also woke up around 2008 i have had many of these conversations before i landed on your doorstep. Was a very active member and article poster on Freedom works (Matt Kibbie) This site is wiped clean Nothing left on the web. Didn’t think this was even possible. Still do not know why the decision was made to end it!
Was connected to a marine there who is the one (by the way who suggested use the Art of warfare, Helgian dialect, yo jimbo against the enemy. Still works and making more and more sense to me now.
Forward we go, thanks for all your effort and the many commentors here.
Yes, all of you.

“10 steps to protect YOUR money from MASSIVE, coming change:”No, no, and no. At this point, only one thing is needed: Convert it ALL into gold, silver, food and lead — especially lead. With lots of lead, you can get all that other stuff you need.
So perhaps he was saying with lead we can get others tuff from the enemy?

Some observations,
we have many types engaging here, we have many one minded people who only have a one track mind for what ever reason. we have others who try desperately to egg them on.
People seem to have tunnel vision and many times can not or will not face the big picture.
Am not complaining, but how do we get people to stop being so paranoid when everything’s coming to get em?
And there is no way we do not have infiltrators.

These “one bullet” folks are sometimes difficult to recognize. You might want to add to the “one bullet” someone that says ” I’ll do what I’m best at”. This came from a government enforcement person when his wife asked if they needed to do some prepping. I just happened to be present at the time. Needless to say, I don’t associate with this individual any more.

I too have heard words similar to these but perhaps not as intense. More like,” when it all goes to hell we’re coming to your place.” As much as I love some of these people, they will be turned away in whatever form necessary. This is not to get “even” for their teasing me about being prepared, instead it’s about taking care of my own family first.

How could you possibly think that people with a tie of family or friendship would be any thing but a benefit when times are at their worst? Pony up for a few 100 lb bags of rice for them and call it an investment if that is what your money-obsessed mind needs to hear. Wouldn’t it be funny if they said they were coming to your place as cover to hide the fact they actually have a lot more socked away than you do, they just aren’t dumb enough to advertise it.

Also: How do these people know that yours is the place to go to when the lights go out? Why would you brag to friends/ family about something that you don’t intend to share unless you are a world class dick?
“Hey brother in law, check out all this food I have stored in my basement along with all this ammo. Hahah, if shit happens you can starve while I’m living fine, hahah aren’t I super cool?”

Who else have you talked to about your hobby? Are you going to act surprised when they and all their friends show up at your place?

The global and national push and acceptance of covid-19 and subsequent vaccinations (and likely previous vaccines under the guise of ‘flu’ and others), are very much to do with accessing women’s wombs, and rendering men’s sperm ineffective or damaging, as it’s also a corrupting blood agent (it’s essentially another form of abortion, and many men and women don’t realize this or perhaps they are happy about it). This may be the the obvious result of allowing aborted fetal cells in medicines, supplements and foods over decades, and to some degree the ignorance thereof. The tolerance and allowance of abortion for decades and decades has emboldened those who have made no qualms about their intents and purposes for a worlwide reduced population (they go to the womb, without waiting for the woman to go to the abortion clinic). That there’s been no organized, sustained pushback speaks volumes. These and others are all reasons why conservatives and republicans along with liberals and democrats cannot be expected to lead by vote, financially, influence-wise, locally, nationally, with regards to business and so forth.

You need to rethink your life if you commonly have conversations that involve people telling you they have 1 bullet they are going to shoot you with. In my 40+ years of life I don’t think I’ve ever had such a conversation.

If you are having these conversations on the internet and you are taking them seriously, then you really need to rethink your life because the internet and the people on it aren’t real.
