How Horrific Will It Be For The Non-Prepper? - An Eye Opening Preview
[link to www.shtfplan.com]
This is the best article I have ever read about the importance of prepping that could be forwarded on to those who need a good wakeup call. I urge you to read the whole article and send it to those you think it might help. I did. Did even one of you get more serious after reading this?

(Less than 50% rule followed)

What horrors they will likely face after a cave-in of their nation’s economy, war, geophysical upheaval, or whatever crisis is bad enough to disturb or stop their nation from working and functioning? There are plenty of very potential SHTF events that are simply awaiting a catalyst to trigger them.

• The Non-Prepper (NP) has to realize right off the bat that 911 and other emergency calls in will be met with silence or some recording telling the caller not to panic.

•The (NP) that has no reliable self defense that can stop an attacker, will not get help from public services, and will become a victim of rape, assault, torture, or murder.

•The (NP) that has no reliable self defense and will not only be at the mercy of criminal elements, but also have to contend with many desperate animals, some with rabies.

•The (NP) that has no food will either have to find food or be ready to beg for food or worse, like sacrificing their bodies or other horrible acts or things to get a bite of food.

•The (NP) will have to go through the worst, most rancid conditions of garbage to just maybe find what they should have stored up.

•The (NP) will go through panic and near if not total psychosis looking for any water source right before their bodies begin shutting down during advanced stages of dehydration.

•The (NP) will go through unbearable trauma when their children and other people around them are crying, screaming, and suffering with intense hunger pains in their stomachs.

• The (NP) will have to deal with the awful stench of rotting wastes from many sources because they have not taken the effort to even store up waste disposal plastic bags.

•The (NP) will witness some of those people around them lose any sense of civilized humanity in them and behave like wild animals after some time from lack of necessities.

•The (NP) and family members, maybe friends also, will at some point end up barbecuing or eating raw the family dog, cat, bird, any pet dear to everyone for food.

•The (NP) will likely get into physical fights with other family members over any scrap of food available as rational thoughts are lost to wanton hunger.

•The (NP) as many other (NP’s) will eventually go out of any safety of their home looking for food and or water, become disorientated and lost, and die a hard death somewhere.

•The (NP) that is “lucky” enough to find some government help will likely have to almost sell their soul, probably all their freedom, to get tiny rations – just enough to keep them alive.

•The (NP) will see widespread violence and barbarism that will shock them to the core and will wish that they had purchased some form of firearm and stocked up on ammunition.

•The (NP) better get used to attempting to explain the children and other adults why they wasted all that money on junk, and didn’t buy any emergency food and other supplies.

•The (NP), no matter how positive they are will drop quickly into depression and lose willpower as having nothing to hold on to does this, along with lack of any nutrition.

•The (NP) will feel the worst guilt imaginable as they hear their family moaning in anguish from lack of anything to eat, knowing they could have done something to prepare.

•The (NP) will most likely not see the rebuilding and recovery after A SHTF event. They will, like almost all NP’s, be statistics. Some will die hours or a day before help arrives.

•The (NP) from lack of food, drinking bad water, no light at night, the horrid smells, no good self defense, the overall horror, will often be paralyzed with fear and despair, blank stare.

•The (NP) is totally helpless after SHTF, will have to rely totally on charity of those prepared to live. They will take all sorts of desperate measures likely to get them shot. They’ll attempt to eat hazardous foods like an animal trapped in a house will do, and get sick and suffer much before dying. The (NP) will likely die (ugly and hard) as they lived, unprepared for anything.

If we were to use one single word to describe the torments that someone who “chooses” not to prepare will go through after a true you know what hits the fan it would be “PREVENTABLE”.

What scenario are we going with were the entire world has no food and everyone is attack each other?
lol.
Because if its "end of the world", you'll end up like everyone else "eventually"...
And why are non-preppers not able to defend themselves?
That's just retarded.

Esp when they get organized and realize that some of their neighbors have food and water. And all they have to do is take it.

What this article neglects to mention is that it may be a scenario the preppers didn't prep for that happens.
What if an asteroid hits and wipes out all of your prepped stock?
Or an ice age comes and freezes everything?
How about all the criminals who know you stocked up and want to take what you have?
Eventually you will be out of stock then what?
I'm not saying prepping isn't a good idea but you cannot prep for everything that could go wrong.
Considering the government has already passed the bill to confiscate your stock how long do you think you'll be able to keep it?
Personally I hope that whatever happens hits us so quick that we never felt it coming.

Ive been thinking about this, the desperate hordes of NPs. If you can secure your home, the best thing to do is starve a little and look dirty in public, appear as if you are suffering like the NPs. Line up for food and water like everyine else if its offered, no matter how much you have stored. It wont fool everyone in every situation but it will be a useful strategy to help many preppers get by and keep their supplies.

Also, get every family member familiar with a gun. Never let every adult/ young adult in the house be asleep at the same time, even if there is only two of you.

He that Fails to Prepare, prepares to FAIL
OP, just ignore the negative posters, can't think for themselves.
As many Scientists of late have advised, it has happened before and will happen again, it's all a matter of time, bet the Ruskies never dreamt of what happened at Tunguska would be in their lifetime

•The (NP) will most likely not see the rebuilding and recovery after A SHTF event. They will, like almost all NP’s, be statistics. Some will die hours or a day before help arrives.

•The (NP) from lack of food, drinking bad water, no light at night, the horrid smells, no good self defense, the overall horror, will often be paralyzed with fear and despair, blank stare.

•The (NP) is totally helpless after SHTF, will have to rely totally on charity of those prepared to live. They will take all sorts of desperate measures likely to get them shot. They’ll attempt to eat hazardous foods like an animal trapped in a house will do, and get sick and suffer much before dying. The (NP) will likely die (ugly and hard) as they lived, unprepared for anything.

If we were to use one single word to describe the torments that someone who “chooses” not to prepare will go through after a true you know what hits the fan it would be “PREVENTABLE”.

What is horrific is the fate of the prepper who is discovered by the hoards of nonpreppers.

How many will be feasting on dead bodies?

They say babies are especially tender and tasty.

Even the prepper will eventually run out of things.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14998685

This is true. That's why the Prepper needs to also become a Producer. Then he will achieve balance.

That is the only sustainable course of action over an extended crisis.

Prep now to live self-sufficiently, without the comforts of civilization. That means have food for when the food runs out. But that also means produce your own food (or at least prepare to do so) in order to provide food sustainably into the future.

Perhaps you've heard the old saying?:

Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day.
Teach him to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.

It's a similar concept:

Store food & other essentials now for your short-term needs.
Then grow & raise your own food for as long as needed into the future for your more permanent needs.

You only need enough preps for 30 days. After that most of the population will have been killed off and their will plenty left.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1585965

I cannot imagine any realistic doomsday scenario by which there would be "plenty (vital resources, I guess) left".

Either there would be millions of starved, ready-to-kill-for-food people left or the surface of the planet would be entirely devastated.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 16092389


Not sure if you have ever heard of the "bottleneck" that happened to humanity circa 70000 years ago, but it is thought that a super volcano eruption drove the population down to a few thousand. One school of thought is that sure the eruption was bad, but what almost delivered the coup de grâce was what is being called "intra species pressure." In other words, cannabalism and murder. Have a nice doom.

Listen to the man from Mongolia. I mean it's fitting given that Mongolia was the largest Asian expansion (similar to US and world Finance) and they have learned to tame the country and survive through the ages with amassed wealth and 'production' methods even next to a tyrannt like Russia and China... how is Ulaabatar this time of year, wondering if I should move into one of the new Mongolian suburbs... i hear it's like vegas.

I would rather starve to death. Of course, I hope I have that same resolve should I ever be forced to learn that much about myself.

No amount of prepping will help for what is coming.
