The Survival Pyramid: Helping Families Prepare
https://personalliberty.com/the-surviva ... s-prepare/

This Survival Pyramid was created by a friend of mine who sells food storage and survival products. Her name is Brenda Nicholson. In November, I flew to Florida to help her sell survival foods at the Tea Party convention. She published this Survival Pyramid and gave me permission to use it in this article.

Prepare For The Worst And Hope For The Best
There is no way we can know exactly what emergency situations might occur. If you break down the short-term and long-term emergencies and prepare for them in sequence, it will be easier and less overwhelming to put together emergency survival foods and other supplies just in case you encounter a power outage, tornado, hurricane, flooding, civil unrest or any other type of local disaster.

https://www.askaprepper.com/grocery-stores-go-empty-back-door-shopping-strategy/

Post a reply When-Grocery-Stores-Go-Empty-%E2%80%93-A-Back-Door-Shopping-Strategy-890x395_c As a prepper or survivalist, we all typically pride ourselves on being prepared for SHTF situations. At any given time we usually have a good amount of non-perishable foods stored, as well as options for hunting, fishing, trapping, and gardening. However, not everybody is quite this prepared for a worst case scenario. Despite our best efforts, many of us will be forced to join the masses and head to the grocery store to stock up for the days or weeks to come. If that happens, this is your guide to surviving the ordeal and coming out with a good amount of needed nutrition. ---CONTINUED---

(SNIP) ... As preppers are well aware, when the needs of the population cannot be met in an allotted time frame, a phenomena occurs and the mindset shifts in people. They begin to act without thinking and respond to changes in their environment in an emotionally-based manner, thus leading to chaos, instability and a breakdown in our social paradigm.

When you take the time to understand how a breakdown behaves and how it progresses, only then can you truly prepare for it. ---CONTINUED---
