Real lesson is how often are you targeted for doing "fill in blank". What use are your preps if your neighbors and the system are aware of them and wish to "share" them? My preps are viewed as hoarding by the government and the unprepared and my protective devices are a threat to their control. I am 86 and in bad health so it doesn't bother me if the powers that be wish to do something. I was much more under the radar 30 years ago. I require medications and treatment every couple weeks to stay alive and have always tended to be out spoken. If I lived in most neighborhoods in Detroit, etc, I would not have my Trump signs up. I am on the net, but I do not believe nor do I advocate the armed overthrow of the government. In that sense I am totally different than a BLM supporter. Never the less there have been places and times that indicate being a supporter of the Constitution has made a person a threat to the government and participating in BLM riots has been approved by some in government. Where the system is really failing is that at some point the sheer number of unqualified politically correct individuals holding jobs that require real skills destroy the ability of the organization to do its job. The destruction of some major corporations by "correct" choices for top level management comes to mind. FEMA. the US military, and many other organizations are skating on thin ice at the moment. While they can often continue to operate in the status quo, they often are unable to make required changes if the situation requires change. Last year or so of the NAZI regime in WW2 being a classic example of this behavior. The German people would probably have been better off if the attempt on Hitler had been successful and peace been made at that point.
Around 42 attempts were made on Hitler's life during his reign of terror, until Uncle Joe Stalin finally had enough of his BS.
FEMA employee states that Trump supporters like house with loose pit bulls in yard, likely to be a problem so avoid. Makes me feel real special. Never knew that being 86 years old and unable to walk over 50 feet, that my Trump sign would make me dangerous. Don't know if I should be mad or feel proud of my perceived powers at my age.
