Man made global warming is junk science and a hoax; follow the money. But you, as a "warmer" believe it despite all of the evidence to the contrary.

Keeping several tonnes of dry goods, having a well drilled in your nuclear-fallout grade bunker equipped with several tankers of fuel and enough guns and ammo to start another Viet Nam? Well, let's just say you may want to invest in some large rolls of industrial stregth aluminum foil to make hats thick enough to keep those alien mind-control rays from affecting the way you think.
In that case, you need to come up with another name than "prepper" to disparage such people - because a prepper is simply someone who is prepared for anything - even the left wing hoax of "global warming".

There is no one individual who has enough guns and ammo to "start another Vietnam", and that war was started by peasants who were tired of colonial rule, and who got co-opted by Marxists who had studied outside Vietnam, like Ho Chi Minh.

Seriously - when you make ridiculous comparisons between "preppers" and the Vietnam War, you only make yourself look silly.

Do some research so that you know what you are talking about.

What is wrong with having a bunker?

You and I may not have been around for the 50's and 60's when fallout shelters were common, but that does not make such structures "extreme" by any means.

Pakistan has nukes, and Harrier doesn't trust them, even if they are a nominal "ally".

North Korea and Iran want to acquire nukes, and God help us if they are successful.

Finally, the U.S. federal government has nukes.

The several states should develop nuclear programs so that they can remain secure from the federal government.

People like to put their faith in things.

Now, if there was some evidence to suggest that was changing, which I would warmly welcome, or perhaps a revolutionary idea to make people not feel the need to 'identify,' then I'd be interested.
There's a reason Islam has consistently been the fastest growing religion in the world, in modern times.

Really?

OK, then "prove it", if you can.

It's called "exaggeration". Look into it.

Good god.. The irony of this response is delicious.

Pakistan does not possess the technology to deliver any of those nukes to North America. But please, don't let the facts get in the way of your paranoia.

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!

Seriously... You actually think that "the several states" should prepare to nuke America to prevent America from nuking itself?

Dem's REAL smarts, y'all!

No, Harrier thinks that the sovereign state of California (and the other 49) should have a nuclear deterrent in order to keep itself secure from the United States federal government.

Wrong. Those that believe such unadulterated nonsense as man made global warming serve as irrefutable evidence that the collective intelligence of the mainstream public has been reduced to blathering idiocy, incapable of original thought, or fundamental reasoning skills.

No example I can find exceeds the preposterous concept embraced by the CO2 zombies. You might as well parade around demanding that we eliminate oxygen .... that's just how absurd you people are.

A box of rocks could beat you in a game of checkers.
