A bunker sure came in handy to a family in Australia during the recent bushfires.

It saved their lives.

I agree entirely

Lots of civil laws , on the books , that few know about. Did you know , all truck drivers are ordered to report to the Department of Transportation in the event of a National emergency , for instructions. ? The Government can give the order to nationalize the nations Transport industry at any time. Does not require any act of Congress.

Hoarding food is a crime.

Anyone with more than 5 days of food can be fined and the food taken.

One church has already been shut down and everything taken for this 'crime'.

Jeez, I hope they don't look in my pantry. We have these things called Hurricanes down here and they tell us to have TWO WEEKS SUPPLY.

Would be surprised if it was true though. The government is full of idiots.
