Here is my advice to preppers, and its not directed at any one person. It is actually the very first thing that comes to mind when I see the TV shows.

You may want to stop telling people you are a prepper, stop telling people what you have, stop telling people where it is.

I watched an episode of Doomsday preppers where some guy stated where he is, all of his stocks, then covered his security for his bunker in detail, down to the perforated handrails so he could torch an intruder...

All I could think was "thanks"..... Ill just seal your air supply and not bother with the front door.

There are two aspects to this, there is the survival (water, food, sustainability), then there is the absurd (moats, flame throwing hand rails, spider holes)....

The best defense is to keep the struggle far away from your home. Not at your front door, it's too easy to burn you out if I want in. Rethink setting up your primary defense at your front door.

Woods are nice and concealing but too easy to burn you out. I would prefer a high perch with only 1 avenue of approach and a clear line of sight down that avenue of at least a mile.


Lanes of fire from an attic window.... Seriously??????

Ill just drop back 300m and wait for you to try and scan the horizon. Trust me, I only have 3 feet to watch and ill see you before you see me.

You have enough supplies to live in a home for a year? Where is a years worth of human excrement going? Foyer?
