On September 28th, we will witness the last of the four blood moons that fall on Biblical festival dates during 2014 and 2015. This blood moon will be a “supermoon” and it will be clearly visible from the city of Jerusalem. According to Google, a supermoon is “the coincidence of a full moon or a new moon with the closest approach the Moon makes to the Earth on its elliptical orbit, resulting in the largest apparent size of the lunar disk as seen from Earth.” In recent years, there have been some that have suggested that there is a link between supermoons and increased seismic activity on our planet. But others have written articles that claim to debunk this theory. Personally, I have read what both sides of the argument have to say, and I do not know which side of the argument is correct. But what I do know is that seismic activity along the Ring of Fire has picked up dramatically in recent years.
According to Volcano Discovery, there are 32 volcanoes on or near the Ring of Fire that are erupting right now. If that sounds like an unusually high number to you, that is because it is an unusually high number.
We have seen earthquake activity increase along the Ring of Fire as well. Just a few days ago, a massive 8.3-magnitude earthquake hit Chile. It produced a tsunami that was approximately 16 feet tall, and tsunami advisories were issued as far away as New Zealand…
A tsunami advisory was issued for the coastal areas of Southern California, which means strong currents are likely and residents should stay away from the shore.
Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties warned residents to stay away from beaches and harbors due to the chances of strong currents. But authorities in the three counties said land inundation is not expected.
“Widespread hazardous tsunami waves are possible” along the coast of Chile and Peru, the Pacific Tsunami Warning Center said, and a tsunami watch is in effect for Hawaii.
A tsunami watch is issued “to alert emergency management officials and the public of an event which may later impact the watch area,” the center says. A warning is issued when a “potential tsunami with significant widespread inundation is imminent or expected.”
Even New Zealand, which is 6,000 miles away from the quake’s epicenter, issued a tsunami warning.
You can see some video footage of the immense damage that the tsunami caused in Chile right here.
Approximately 80 percent of all large earthquakes each year happen along the Ring of Fire, and at some point we are going to see natural disasters occur in this “danger zone” that are going to absolutely shock the entire planet.
In particular, you need to watch Japan.
Everyone remembers the tsunami that happened back in 2011, and within the last 30 days we have seen an eruption of Mount Aso and a 5.3-magnitude earthquake that really shook a lot of people up.
At some point, a major earthquake will strike Tokyo. When that happens, the damage to Japan (and to the entire global economy) will be incalculable. The following is from an article that was published a few years ago that discussed the devastation that a magnitude-7.3 earthquake would cause…
Although newer buildings in Tokyo are built to withstand powerful earthquakes, a large quake in the city has the potential to cause widespread damage.
According to the government, a magnitude-7.3 earthquake would kill about 5,600 people, injure 159,000 and destroy 850,000 buildings.
Unfortunately, what is coming to Tokyo is going to be far, far worse than that.
And don’t forget, Mt. Fuji is very close to Tokyo as well. At some point that volcano will erupt again, and the death and devastation it will cause will be absolutely unimaginable.
I hope that we don’t see any major seismic events in Japan or anywhere else at the end of September. Let’s hope and pray for a very peaceful and quiet end to the month.
Sadly, the mainstream media is having a field day mocking those that are warning that this upcoming “blood supermoon” could be significant. For example, just check out this excerpt from an article in a British news source…
The Blood Moon prophecy began when two Christian preachers with huge followings in the US claimed the date of the last of four ‘blood moons’ over the past 18 months, due to occur at the end of September, would signal the end of the world as we know it before the “second coming of Jesus Christ.”
The fourth in the series of blood moons, which have six full moons in between, is set to happen on September 28.
Despite, the two evangelists, John Hagee and Mark Britz being accused of peddling “false warnings” in order to cash in on books they have penned about their predictions, the theory continues to sweep the online religious community, with videos on YouTube going viral.
First of all, they didn’t even spell “Mark Biltz” correctly.
Secondly, I know for a fact that Mark Biltz has not been saying that the second coming of Jesus Christ would happen this September.
But this is what passes for “journalism” these days.
U.S. news sources are publishing similar stories. Here is just one example…
The end of the world will surely come, but just as surely it will not be this Sunday night or Monday morning when a super moon combines with a lunar eclipse to create a “super blood moon.”
Basically, despite the doomsayers, we’re just going to call it:
No world destroying comet, no Earth shattering quake … and if a religious figure comes/returns, our guess is that it will be on par with a personal visit like what people say happens every day … no Earth-scorching fire and brimstone will happen this weekend.
But, hey, if the world and everything comes to an end this weekend, please do send me an email with the subject line: Told You So!
Perhaps the mockers will be right.
Perhaps nothing will happen on September 28th.
But let me be abundantly clear – a great shaking is coming to our planet, and life as we know it is about to completely change.

Re: Blood moons in consecutive years on the Feast of Passover (April 15, 2014 and April 4, 2015) and on the Feast of Tabernacles (Oct. 8, 2014 and Sept. 28, 2015).
“Such events have occurred only three other times in recent centuries, and each time they were linked to significant events for the Jewish nation,”
“For example, when it happened in 1493 and 1494, Jews were expelled from Spain. The blood moons in 1949 and 1950 came right after the nation of Israel was assembled, giving the Jews a homeland for the first time in thousands of years.
And in 1967 and 1968 it was linked to the Six-Day War.”
It did not happen in the 1600s, 1700s or in the 1800s.
This also happened “at the time of destruction of the temple in 70 A.D.”
http://www.wnd.com/2013/10/blood-moons-expert-watch-2014-and-2015/
Nasa says it will not happen for another 500 years. That is, Blood Moons on specific Jewish Feast Days.
You have to ponder…
There is nothing in the Scriptures about “Blood Moon Tetrads” only for Signs. The Moon turning Red is in the End Time associated with The Day of The Lord. http://www.watchmansview.com/Blood_Red_Moons.html
This is the same guy who screamed about the “shmeitah”, yet nothing happend. Nothing will happen with the blood moon, though i’ll be out late/early to observe it. It is written that: “No one knows the exact hour I will come. — I will come like a thief in the night.” He will come when we lest expect Him. Things are bad now, but unfortuantly they must get worse yet. The Fed/Central banks still have power to keep the illusion alive a little longer, how much longer we don’t know, just use that time to better yourself, your preps and to get closer to God.
“But let me be abundantly clear – a great shaking is coming to our planet, and life as we know it is about to completely change.” —That’s the most alarmist way to VAGUELY state the obvious that I’ve ever read. This is why people look at “preppers” like were crazy.
Yes, when the balloon goes up, it’ll be bad. When the San Andreas, Casscadia, and New Madrid fault lines go off, it’s going to be bad, when the DOW finally crashes from the current 16K to 8K, it’ll be bad, when WWIII finally erupts in Syria/Ukraine, it’ll be bad. But to make exagerated claims just for the shock and awe value, and to make vague false predictions, such as Snyder makes, is what ruines our credibility.
Warn those who care to know, prepare while there is time, sieze the day, love your family and neighbors, love God, and live life. That’s all we can do, and that’s all HE expects us to do.
Those things that happened were “MANMADE” not of divine origin ! TEST everything! These blood moons are only part of a larger pattern that concludes in 2019. Funny how nobody “Wrote” about that detail ! http://www.watchmansview.com/Blood_Red_Moons.html The Bible is being used as a playbook to deceive the masses who do not understand the Scriptures well. Israel was in the works for many decades before it came into existence in 1947. Plenty of documentation from pre WW2 shows the conspiracy to uproot the population in that area. http://www.zionismontheweb.org/zionism_history.htm
So why is this guy sticking around writing articles for the internet, instead of hightailing it to some cave?
Even a cave may not be safe.

Edgar Cayce predicted 75 years ago: ” … the greater portion of Japan must go into the sea …”.
And it probably will: but not because of THIS Supermoon. 🙂
Cayce also stated that the earth would shift on it’s axis and that Atlantis would rise. He was truly a gifted and spiritual man. Stay safe and well… prepare and pray. God Bless.

Sometimes sudden panic can be a good thing.
The death of Western Christian civilization has been
insidiously slow and steady… few have even noticed.

Hahahahahahahahaha……. Simpletons…
Well well well
Jade Helm came and went
Sept 23 came and went
Shemitah came and went
In fact every damned prediction of disaster came and went for the last 9 years without a glitch..
Time to move on and enjoy life folks..
Exactly. Everytime I point out that nothing happened or that nnothing will happen I get met with hostility and it WILL happen this time and this time is different, and my favorite one, just watch and see. I have watched, and I have seen. The “experts” are wrong, again, and we’re all still here.
Did they REALLY come and GO????

Sounds and feels like the shaking has begun
This would be a nice time for BI and some knowlegable input,,
The amount of action suggests plates are on the move.
The area i worry about is the Aleutian chain and that giant undersea cliff. If that slips we might see a wave like the last one that destroyed a bunch of stuff on the north shores of all the islands, the other is the Cascadia,,
IMHO we are overdue,
“K”
Man wouldn’t be great if BI was back. They knew their stuff!!!!
Sgt.
stupid ass trolls had to run him off. He was a great contributor to this forum
Google suspicious observers….its BI’s main site now. He has an earthquake site as well….it is the main way I keep up with what he’s doing…
Thanks,,, will definitely check it out
Link ?
BI is not the suspicious observer, I asked him once on this forum if he was the one who posted on youtube and he said no, that he never posted anything on youtube.
I do listen to SO every morning to see if a CME is headed our way.
Kula, Sarge, All,
I personally feel that there are some over due natural calamaties ready to be triggered. The situation in the Middle East is a powder keg ready to explode and things are on a hair-pin trigger. The situation in Europe with the invasion of the refugees is certainly going to put a stress on all the governments and countries there. The situation in China and over leveraged markets throughout the world are creating economic instability and recessions. Race relations here in this country are not getting better but appear to be getting worse. The sky is falling and needs to be prepped up! Keep prepping while you can, it is the quiet before the storm. Kula, I hope you are on high ground and not down by the ocean. We here, are mostly below sea level, but it looks like the predicted meteorite has not hit yet or it has passed us by. Stay safe and God bless everyone at this site.

PS: KY Mom, Thanks for the information you posted. As always it was relevent and cogent.
I live at the foot of Mount Hood in Oregon. I know I’ve felt little tremors while in bed, there was one about 2 am earlier this morning. I’ve felt about a dozen or so this year. They only last for a minute or so. I probably only feel the ones when I’m in bed being still and quiet.
Hey Six, did you get your crossbow figured out? Bagged a nice gobbler last Sat opening day via Xbow. Hickory smoked it 3 hours, delicious!!
~WWTI
Yes I did! I took it with me on a camping/fishing trip. I learned it’s harder to pull those field points out of trees than it looks. I also learned I can climb over big rocks and that my walker does not make a good flotation device…LOL. Thanks for asking.
Better can some of that gobbler, cause they don’t fair too good on water.
btw, thought you were leaving????
So, have you appointed yourself to become his personal stalker too?
Payback is a bitch best served up with stench.
That was me. The booty bandit. lol.
STOP THE GAY BASHING, SENEX.
FEEL THE RAINBOW.
Six,
I was on the 16th Fl or the Hilton in SF when there was a small earthquake in the middle of the night. It felt like someone was sitting on the bed. It was creapy!
Be Informed, where are you when we need you!
Just know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and let tomorrow worry about tomorrow. Trekker Out.
You got that right!
Amen.
And it burns, burns, burns.
The ring of fire, the ring of fire.
Hey Johnny you know they have pills to take away that burning, right?
If that doesn’t work, try rubbing some dirt on it.
I went down on a dirty little sl*t…
I went down down down then I f**ked her in the b***…
And it burns burns burns…
When I urinaaate..
You guys crack me up.
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.
Well ……….
Jade Helm came and went and nothing happened, most people didn’t even notice it.
Sept 23 came and went and nothing happened, most people didn’t even notice it.
So now we have to face total annihilation of civilization on Sept 28th.
After that comes and goes with nothing happening and most people not even noticing it, what is the next date we need to live in terror of?
Hey Eppe, Sinve you totally blew yoir OPSEC, go to this website: OffGridSurvival and read this article: Online Safety: Protecting your kids from Internet and Social Media Threats
Besides you being the weakest link in your family with a gaping blabbering piehole the size of Boston Harbor, You need to brush up on your OPSEC skills, instead of posting useless jokes. Your only salvatiom now is moving ASAP to another county or state. Like I said many times here, most people get in trouble for the following reasons:
1: Drugs and Alcohol
2: EGO
3: Greed
You eppe blew 1&2 with your beauty contest info. Again self indulging blabbering piehole and drunk and typing here.
~WWTI
While I agree Eppe could have been a bit more lacking in details and just mentioned daughter won contest without county name,face it,he was high on jubilation and happy for his kid,can understand the slipup and doubt will come back to haunt him,one of the posters gonna go for him?!They do,am kinda bored and happy to fly down and help keep an eye out.And no,didn’t grow up Grizzly Adans lifestyle with a few special ops combat tours thrown in but can handle meself and protection well enuff.That said,really do not see a issue but a non fatal learning lesson.Am glad his kid happy,too much sadness in the world,a little joy never hurts!
Thanks, War.
Sure, I could have been more OPSEC. Since I have posted my email eight times here now, we have 11 posters on board. Have met up with one, talked with four, and email all others. And I am not a russian spy, NSA, or any other things I have been accused of by WWTI. No viruses either.
I am proud of my girls. They will succeed in life.
WWTI, think about this.
If you post here you are known by the NSA.
That has blown your OPSEC.
So bashing me makes no difference.
Also ponder on this.
If you died in your sleep tonight, who would care?
If you were injured tomorrow in a truck wreck, would any one visit you in the hospital?
If tomorrow a pack of moccasins or copperheads bit you, would your neighbors come to your rescue?
Why are you such a hateful human?
Who would get your BOL, your nephew?
And he would sell it off in no time.
Since you will be wormdirt, I hope the higher power has mercy on your soul
I have called a peace with WWTI three times now, and he keeps bashing, don’t know about yall, but that sounds like a liar.
Liars cannot be trusted and will expire quick in SHTF.
May I ask all?
Would you rather me post jokes, stories, and experinces in my life, or hear the bashing, berating, condensending comments that WWTI places here?
I already know the answer.
Be well all, signing off for a while…
WWHTI: Do you need another link to yuan / dollar peg ??? Still waiting for you to admit that you are a financial moron after you triple downed on your stupidity.
Have a great day !!! 🙂
BTW, as I pointed out before, everyone here has been ID by the Cyber Squad located in a nearly new 300,000 square foot building in Chantilly VA.
No one posting here has “OPSEC” and the moment you long on you can be located and ID by a good hacker, unless you are prepared for them …. in advance. Guess you know nothing about “OPSEC” either. 🙂
EPPE
You know where I stand.
You know I love the Jokes, and stories, and experinces.
Keep them coming!!!!!
Sgt.
Me Three!
Eppe,will say though,if trying to keep the “Grey Man”thing going,you know,soccer mom van and all figured you wouldn’t give any info. away.I know I was in a soccer mom van no one would ever be able to identify me!
who says the information he gave was actually belonging to him? just a little too specific, almost giving his address away and no sane man would do that to his family, right?
Whatever it is, it will come from the mouth of Michael Snyder…..
Snyder went into hiding. Bwhahahajajaja
Anon, I agree. I never trust anyone who sets dates for any type of events. They usually end up with egg on their faces. Michael Snyder gets egg on his face a lot. Seems like he would be tied of that by now.
Braveheart,
I actually admire people who set dates. It takes a lot of Chutspa! It also helps to be able to focus on a particular date or place or circumstance in preparing for the anticipated event. I really don’t have a problem with date setters just so long as you take it with a grain of salt. It is like the weatherman. It is an exercise, allows those exercising to prepare for the real event. That is what they were doing with Jade Helm or any other drill or military exercise. Train, train, train. Do not get discouraged if you are doing the right thing.
Laeagle, I take datsetters with a whole shaker of salt. While the time frame could be relevant; could come before or after the aforementioned date; you’re right that it’s a big risk to take. good points.
Date setting should be cause for concern for any Believer. Jesus said to look for signs and gave the example of looking to trees to know when a season change is coming…not a specific date.
I don’t post on here often but I do frequent this site and do read many of the comments. I choose not to get involved in any petty squabbling but will say this. Some of you are being duped by “Acid etch” going by other names and antagonizing you. Scrutinize those posts and you will see that he/she is leaving little clues in plain sight and I can only imagine getting off on the strife they cause between you.
To acid etch I’ll say that I have seen you on occasion make some genuine contribution to a conversation but more often than not you choose to stir up trouble. I have seen you make reference to your being gay and that you are ok with that. If you truly are then you have to understand that not everyone else is going to be and if you feel that you have the freedom to be who you are then everyone else also has that freedom. God has given all men free will to do as we choose in this life and ALL men will also give an accounting to God for the things we have done and not done. He does not force anyone to do anything but has told us right from wrong and it is not relative. There is one truth only and it is unchanging and not based on traditions or dogma or councils of men or current societal norms of morality. Be a positive source on here as you do seem to definitely have knowledge. I know I have learned some things from some of your more informative comments and if you don’t make it your mission to always address the hateful comments some choose to make on here you will probably receive much less vitriol.
Anyway, that’s enough from me. Its late and I’m tired. G’night all!
3%,while I am a believer in freedom of religion you also I hope will understand why some of us do not like religious preaching as at times happens here(not saying you are in your post here),figure others religion/sexuality/ethnicity/monetary status are none of my business/concern.
As I fall to the earth, shot by the gang of 50 looters trying to take my preps, and land softly in the two foot high drifts of volcanic ash covering my yard, I will move onto my next life knowing that I won’t be dying of fallout radiation from the nearby Iranian nuclear explosions, nor from the giant asteroid about to strike the Earth!
Wait a minute, I thought your God promised you ever lasting life if you believed that crock of crap. Come to find out it was a Typo error. Meant to say NEVER Lasting Life. Not one single soul, no pope, no cardinal and not even a bishop got everlasting life. And you are not either,…Sorry but the gullible believer sheep get fleeced generation after every sorry ass generation of dopes.

Donald trump attacked in South Park Episode. On Drudge.
Must be the Blood Moon.
Everyone gets attacked on South Park,why I love the show!
Trump is a elephant looking like a jack ass..Donot be mis lead..TRUMP IS VERY LIBERAL..nO FRIEND OF THE COMMON FOLKS
I’ll be the first to admit, anyone who claims to know how and when the SHTF will happen is full of BS and is just fear mongering. However, I can testify from personal experience, that Doomsday happens everyday. It might not be here and it might not be you, but someone somewhere will experience some sort of Doomsday at some point in their life. It’s as certain as death and taxes. Just ask the Chileans, or the Haitians, or somebody that got hit head-on by a drunk driver (that one was mine). Something bad WILL happen to you at some point in your life. period. You can speculate on what your Doomsday will be, but whatever you do…PREPARE for it as extensively as you can! Personally, I don’t know who’s dumber…the fear-mongers or the trolls that want to ridicule the people who choose to be proactive…
Sustainable Prepper.
The interesting part is being able to hang around and watch what people will do. Depending on what disaster befalls them will dictate their actions. Myself. I already know what I am going to do unless Murphy does me in by accident.
The two big players are Immigration and World economy. From them sprout many tangents as how many and how badly it affects different countries and markets.
I do believe it will be worse than expected in the USA because of all the misleading information. I admit that the explicit warning that the Elite don’t give a shit about us, should give many concern. Normal Bias at its best. As the compression of events ends on or about Sept 30, I would not be surprised to see it all kicked down the Supernatural Road, Maybe we will be more down to earth in our ability to determine Fact or Fiction.
Personally, im going to keep on doing what i do!
The reality is we have more of a chance of a personal SHTF moment than any of these other tinfoil hat scenarios.
Job loss, death in family, natural disaster, way more vhance of that than any big biblical cataclysm shit….
But hey, i guess my rose colored glasses are getting in the way huh
My point exactly Kula. We are all so often lumped into the tinfoil hat group because we think more than 3 seconds ahead, but I’d be surprised if any of the trolls who’ve been lurking around here lately have prepped for even as much as an extra house payment or a plane ticket when a family member dies…most of us here are just prepping for the inevitable bad shit that will happen…
Notice how most of the fear articles posted here are useless drivil. Nobody here has control of global politics. Id suggest moving back 180 degrees to articles which teach newbees how to prep and create a managable safety net. We already know the stock market amd economy are FUBAR. Its just usless daily drivil fear porn. Then the usual idiots chime in with crap like we are sinners and thats why.. its really tyrannical psychopaths pulling the strings of pain onto the masses. Just saying..
~WWTI
Kula, SS, SP, WKA,
Drills and exercises are fun! Whether you are preparing for Grid Down, Tsunami, Meteorites, Zombie Apocalypse, Earth Quakes, Volcanos, Alien Invasion, Nuclear Apocalypse, etc., etc., it is an opportunity to check your lists and look for deficiencies or gaps in your preps. Like one of you said, SHTF scenarios are occuring all around us and all over the world. Just cause it did not happen in your corner does not mean that you are safe or don’t need to prepare.
WKA.
I consider myself to be at terminal prep. Where additional preps can become more of a liability. My wish is that I had a large back hoe tractor and a large tree farm. I already have a chain saw, axes, brace and bits, etc. What I would build. I would agree that too much energy is wasted on topics, although informative, are not conducive to survival. That is why we constantly go off topic. Since coming here. I do not think we are any better off. Maybe some but not at the skill level we should be at.
sustainable,
Yes, you can always prepare for disaster, it’s advisable to do so. But the one thing you CAN’T do is escape from it, prepping will never help anyone to live forever, it’s as certain as the sunrise, some day we all die, prepped or not.
Anon,
Hopefully you have prepped for that event as well. Don’t take any chances!
laeagle
Well said! I agree with you. We will all face our “doomsday” and no one gets out of here alive, so be prepared, physically, materially, and most importantly – spiritually.
The thing about all those personal disasters/tragedies and out of the blue accidents, they are happening every hour, on the hour, everywhere in the world.
I guess the least likely to have those kinds of personal tragedies would be the little pygmies down in New Guinea.
I’m sure they have their fair share also.
But a cataclysmic event that affects hundreds of thousands and possibly millions, that is a scenario that we have not witnessed in our lifetime. Do I fear such an event?
No, because we are situated far enough away from the Ocean to have an immediate effect on us. An earthquake could crumble our homes at anytime. but we are not situated on a major fault.
Our biggest threat, because of living in the woods, is fire. We have taken precautions for that scenario as best as we can.
My point is this. People like Snyder and even myself, aren’t trying to push fear porn or doom and gloom. We are just saying to wake up and assess the situation of where you are and where such a threat may come from, and prepare accordingly.
As I mentioned in a comment earlier, for us regulars, and long timers, a lot of the articles for us is like beating a dead horse. These articles now, for the most part, are for the folks just pulling their heads out of the sand and realizing this is just about “oh SHIT” time.
There are new people clicking on and reading here everyday, for the first time. The variety of lively conversations has something for almost everyone.
I guess I’ll never understand why regulars that don’t enjoy the comments or information, for whatever reason, just seem to enjoy wasting time here to piss and moan about stuff. If I didn’t think that my posts were possibly having a positive and helpful effect on a few, then i would be long gone because i don’t see me ever learning anything more about prepping than what i have already done over the past ten years, plus.
There are many people here that i think a whole lot of and consider as my friends, and some as brothers and sisters in Christ. For that i am thankful.
We should be more thankful, like eppe is, for having such a unique and interesting site. It could all be gone in a flash.
No way passin, both you snydley live for doom porn, his is economic, yours is religious. Other than that, you’re the same.
Don’t you be going anywhere passin.
You’re my own personnel prepper.
Someone to call a friend.
Someone who cares.
Thanks Johnny, and btw, really enjoyed “live” at Folsom prison.
Sustainable Prepper, the trolls win hands down on being retarded. I lost my wife to a drunk driver, so your statement on drunk drivers really hit home for me.
Oh man…I’m really sorry to bring up a painful subject BH…I’m coming up on the 10 year anniversary of my wreck. Drunk hit me head on and crushed pretty much everything from the waist down. I lucked out with some phenominal doctors who, to this day, say that it had to be some kind of divine intervention because there’s no way I should be walking, but I can…and most of the time without a limp! I wasn’t the prepper I am now but I was conscientious financially and that’s the only way I made it through that ordeal without losing my house and everything else. Anyways, I owe you a drink if we ever cross paths!
SP, it’s OK. My wife was a nurse. One day when finishing her shift, she was crossing the street from the hospital to the employee parking lot when she was hit by a drunk Haitian in an old 60’s Cadillac. He was flying down the street so fast there was no time for her to avoid it. she never stood a chance. Back in those days, the judicial system was so lenient on drunk drivers…… anyway, 6 months after her funeral, the same Haitian got hit by another drunk driver head-on and both of them were killed. Poetic justice you might say. Glad to hear you survived your ordeal and can still walk. You are definitely most fortunate. I’ve got to take some time to check out your website. If we ever meet, I’ll settle for a good dinner somewhere. I quit drinking myself after my beloved was buried.
the Pope is now in the USA.
Catholic should know this:
Catholics today must understand the limits of the Pope and bishops’ authority.
http://www.crucialtruths.com/
do not go the wrong way and actually it is easy to see, that this Pope is on the wrong way. He is going the diection to the NWO = Satan
Petrus Romanus,
His purpose to pave the way for the Antichrist the way John the Baptist did the way for Jesus.
Everything that God give us Satan also provides in a counterfeit for to lead us into destruction instead of salvation.
Excellent point made
Pope was really here for historical reasons. It will be written centuries from now how he came to say farewell to America. Too many weird-ass things going on simultaneously. Don’t know about an “all at once” event but I am expecting the next 12 months to be very trying for many more Americans than normal. Perhaps financially, perhaps physically, I am getting mentally prepared above all else.
Also seen riding in the Pope Mobile today were, Elvis, Jebus and Santa Clause. Amd used the toothfairy as a hoos ornimate.

I sometimes hear people say they don’t want to survive when shtf because it would be too terrible. Good thing they weren’t around in prehistoric times or none of us would be here today. Our people were designed to survive all kinds of nasty stuff. Famine, plague, pestilence, war, treason, earthquakes, etc. Bring it on.
One big difference is prehistoric people weren’t thrust from their present style of living back into the stone age, they were already there. It has taken thousands of years for people to become dependent on the systems in place we have today, you don’t just adjust overnight to being thrown back thousands of years of civilization. Be careful what you wish for, you might get it and find it’s not exactly to your liking after all.
But if that’s all you were around growing up you are used to it. Unfortunately now we have too many comforts, so going backwards in regards to food, water, shelter, sanitation, etc would be more than many could mentally take.
Mental preps are just as important as any physical stock piling. If you don’t have the mental fortitude you won’t make it long term.
…but can we survive “gay pride” and “blacklivesmatter” or yet another liberal administration?
Six.. We will not survive..Those that say are American lies and will not resist..
We have our last Pope. He will be a false prophet, and intent on bringing down the sacred doctrines & principles of Catholicism, and indeed Christianity itself. He is doing so with his “marxist” speeches of climate change, income re-distribution, and open borders. He is in lock step with our “president” and the world order elites. We are in the final days…..anyone with an IQ over 60 can feel it, smell it, see it, taste it. Just look around 360 degrees past your pathetic little universe, and you will see misery, starvation, poverty, war, strife, immorality, greed, intolerance, and a rising unrest by the masses across the globe.
The horrors are at the doorstep, and the devil is loose.
Prepare and pray.!!!!!!!
Well said J.
This pontiff prick is SO friggin’ worldly that he mite as well be speaking for the atheist party.
Time to see this corrupt pope on a rope.
Down with popery.
Down with papists.
I’m utterly astounded, I’m not sure who has genocided more Christians and Jews, the Muslims or the communists. In recent decades it seems communists are really trying to top Islam’s body count, but since Obama has unleashed a regional war in the Middle East, Muslims are stacking up the heads.
And here we are, the Pope is a flaming communist, who has boo to say about ongoing Islamic genocides, but he’s going to save Mother Earth from mankind!
A bible verse seems soooo appropriate here:
Rev 16:13 And I saw coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs; 14for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day of God, the Almighty.
Told ya that religious folks will die first in SHTF cause their leaders like the Poop will lead the gullible sheep herd off the cliff into darkness.
Get out of mass population centers and find a nice rural hidy hole off the beaten path. That will be your salvation from the useless eaters and free shit army hords, carrying diseases and crime.
~WWTI
That’s right,
build a shack in mommy’s backyard, where you can run a drop cord.
BAwh,wah,hahahahaha. Oh I just pissed myself from laughing so hard.
I watched my Dad stop a cat/dog fight once. He grabbed both of them by the scruff of their necks and held them nose-to-nose. Every time the cat hissed or the dog growled, he shook them both, hard, and put them back nose-to-nose.
He held them in that unpleasant fashion, until they both got along. Looks like someone needs to scruff a couple of people here…
He’s not in favor of open borders in Vatican City. I read that they have the strictest immigration policy in the world.
Correct you are Archivist – It appears only Israel and the Vatican City are the ones telling others to accept these displaced refugees while they sit in comfort denying these people any help.
These people do not practice what they preach about loving ‘thy neighbor. Neglects any and all humanitarian jiberish that they speak of.
The Vatican took in exactly ONE Syrian family, I think Christian, and now the left is crowing about how the Pope is stepping up for the immigrant crisis, how dare we question the government allowing in millions of third-world peasants and muslims into first-world societies.
Unbelievably idiotic.
Anyone out there intimately familiar with the M855 5.56 green tip round on soft targets? Any soldiers out there who have first hand knowledge of what the round does hitting a person? Maybe some hunters out there who have used the round on pigs or something? The reason I ask is this is the round that I have stocked up on in bulk for a shtf defensive round. I know there are probably better 5.56 rounds like TAP or some some JHP for expansion. I also know the round was originally designed for punching through Russian helmets at 600 yards and I’m probably not going to be shooting at to many Russian helmets in a shtf. You guys think I should look for some better 5.56 rounds for a shtf or are my green tips good?
Would love to know where to get some green tips. Any ideas?
On line at Natchezss and Midway USA.
Just go to http://www.ammoseek.com and set the search criteria for M855 and you will get tons of results from cheapest to most expensive. I paid $350 for a thousand rounds delivered to my door. Or just google M855 green tip for cheap.
Natchez emailed me this afternoon. 1000 rds, 62 grain green tip for 399.99. Green tip are ok and were used to penetrate glass on car bombers. They are light barrier blind. They’ll do ok if you hit head, heart or big bone.
GT4U
The rifle twist makes a difference in accuracy. 1 in 10 twist I do believe is the right one for 62 gr penetrator green tip. Mini 14 have 1 in 7, 1 in 9, and 1 in 10 twist, Have to look at the prefix number to tell.
55 gr fmj for 1 in 7. Not much info on 1 in 9.
55 gr. usually is 1 in 9. 1 in 7 for heavier bullets like 75 gr. etc. In ‘Nam it was 1 in 12 I believe.
The Prophet.
I would say barrel length and twist. I could only say what the Mini 14 spec were. Might be different for AR 15
All rifles are different, you can buy 2 different brands of AR and one could have a 1-7 twist and the other 1-9. More the twist the better the accuracy.
It really doesn’t matter. Keep it simple people
For heavy or long bullets in an AR-15 you want 1 in 7 twist. It stabilizes the bullet by spinning it faster. 55 grain are ok down to 1 in 9 but I wouldn’t go less than that.
I’ve seen green tip go through an Iraqis head. From what distance I do not know. It didn’t make much of an exit wound at all. I don’t think it tumbles on contact like normal FMJ. Green tip was designed to penetrate thick web gear and magazines on the enemies chest.
That’s what I’m worried about that the round is just going to make nice little holes through people because it is traveling so fast and because it is so hard. Head shots done is done but center mass I would like some expansion.
You don’t have to worry about that, you hit someone they are going to have a bad day, starting right then.
If you hit them center of mass, you are going to end their planned activities for the day.
The m855 will work just fine. Are there better? yes. Do you need them? No. I’ve used them in Close quarter and at multiple distance.
Have a good one.
Don’t get caught up in the barrel twist debate. I’ve ran m855 through 1/7, 1/8 and 1/9. It’s fine. The other post are mostly correct, but it’s not a concern for a fighting weapon.
I did not sigh on to the Hague Convention which restricts the use of hollow points in war. I think 62 gr soft points or hollow points shoot just as well.
Blackjack
I to am a fan of the 62Gr. H.P.
What I like to do is stagger 62Gr. H.P. with a green tip in my mags.
Do you know that there are some places now teaching to aim at the belt buckle area and not center mass. Shoot low hit them in the leg, shoot high hit them in the chest. Makes sense to me.
Sgt.
Yes I know that. But when I train it is from the top to the breast bone to the bottom of the Mouth. The reason is obvious.
this is how i was trained, pelvis and hip shots. hit the ground and bleed out in seconds.
Different stokes for different folks
175g SMK
The 175 SMK stays supersonic at long range…good choice. I have been comparing Lapua 168 to the Sierra 175 at ranges over 600 yds with my .308. Both are pretty good.
Anything over 600 to 800 yards you will probably want to step into the .300 Win Mag or .338 Lapua cartridges.
We were screwing the 62 grain green tips core into steel plates at 500 yds. I wouldn’t want to be down range.
Hells bells! I dont want to be downrange of some kid with a BB gun!
But yea, the 62g green tips will definitely ruin your day,,,
Been shooting 210g Berger VLD hunt/match out of my 300, i like them, the errors are all in my lousy technique.
Green Tip
Green tip ammo was designed to punch through vest that are carrying mags in them. In short making them some what bullet proof. We found that the turds that we were fighting were wearing AK chest packs with loaded mags and the 55 Gr. slug wasn’t going through. So here comes the Green tip. Then we found that the heavier 75 grain bullet didn’t work well in a 1-7 twist. So the made the 1-9 twist that worked very well. You can get ok results in a 1-8 twist also but the best one is the 1-9 or 1-10 twist.
Now for a green tip on bare flesh it works just like a armor piercing round small hole in small hole out. Unless you hit bone.
Sgt.
M1A with 147gr. no worry about any of the other shit. My personal round for all the bases. Enough said!
Green tip
I do know that a 55gr FMJ standard, non green tip will smoke right on thru a 1/4″ thick steel plate at over 100 yds.. like buttaaa
I also know that I can kill two coyote with (one) 1- 5.56/223 FMJ at over 100 yds as long as they are standing one behind the other
lol that was one cool ass shot too , my buddy about shit when he saw me take that shot , 1 bang 2 fell
Also note: if you push a 55 or 62 gr 223/5.56 too fast (reloaders)
it will strip the jacket off the bullet in a 1:7 twist
this is true with many different bullets , and calibers
there is a speed a certain bullet can travel thru a barrel depending upon the bullet type and the twist of the lands and grooves of the rifling
so it is rocket science after all,, reloading isnt re-guessing
its an exact science , powder burn rate / amount of a certain powder, type of projectile, barrel length , and rifling twist etc all go into a formula and a given result is the ballistics of that round and its performance or lack there of
Back to weight of the bullet vs. rifling twist rates…
It’s NOT the weight of the bullet,although weight does go up due to the length of a bullet from 55Gr to 62 gr to 72gr etc
It’s the LOAD BEARING SURFACE on the sides of the bullet,
The part that contacts the rifling.
More load bearing surface, the tighter twist you can run on those little bullets.
Larger/longer bullets naturally have more load bearing surface, so they hold the rifling better,
Smaller bullets, especially boat tails, will have a tendency to strip the copper off the jacket and NOT twist with the barrel.
Longer bullets also naturally stabilize easier.
Shorter bullets like to wobble in flight.
Longer LIGHT WEIGHT bullets (NOT lead core),
Same weight as smaller lead core, but longer with a different core material,
Will stabilize just fine in the same barrel.
The big deal I run into a bunch is ‘Crap’ barrels from the factory.
ARs are so popular, they are cranking out barrels just as fast as they can make them,
The tools get dull, out of specification, but the barrels still keep rolling off the line… (There is a buck to be made, damn the quality…)
Run a bore scope down some of those barrels and you would think they were machined with broken glass!
Fire a few rounds, and the copper they collect is ridiculous.
Proper break in is mandatory for a rough barrel since the copper collected those first few rounds is going to ‘Hydraulic’ and magnify every scratch, pit, chatter mark, ect. as the new barrel work hardens.
When you get a barrel, it’s ‘Soft’.
The first 50 rounds or so is going to compact the grain in the metal, ‘Work Hardening’ the bore.
If there is copper being compressed into those scratches, pits, chatter marks,
When the barrel is new and soft, it will push steel aside, increasing the size of the ‘Issues’ in the barrel,
Making them ‘Problems’.
CLEAN THE CRAP OUT OF THAT BARREL when you get it.
Scrub with something that will break the chips/burrs off the rifling edges.
Then shoot a couple of rounds,
Clean the copper out!
Do that for about 20 times, keeping the copper from building up in the barrel.
As you shoot, two things are happening,
One is the barrel is work hardening, also described by some shooters as ‘Settling In’,
The second is, any copper in the pits is getting hit with HUGE FORCES by the next round down the tube,
Along with that, any sharp edges are still taking copper off the next round, and adding it to the copper in the hole.
If you remove the copper in the hole, scratch, ect.
Then the next round smooths over the sharp edge eventually, but you have to keep cleaning out the copper for this to happen while the barrel is work hardening.
My 25th round in each mag is a tracer. This way I know there’s a mag change coming. Learned it in the Army from a Vietnam vet. My reasoning was that he’d done three tours and lived. He knew what he was talking about. 1st Sgt was a hell on a guy.
That’s a good idea, I’ve even got a couple. Thanks
The idea bandied around the officer corps in the eighties was attrition. The 5.56 was designed to wound. The wounded soldier would require his comrades to carry him off the field, medical attention and evacuation. Took more than one man out of the fight and tied up enemy resources. In any potential war with NWO occupiers, we may need to employ this strategy. Effective guerilla combat is all about wearing down the enemy.
I reload Barnes and the bullet length is THE factor. I shoot them out of a 1 in 7 and right on the box it tells you no less than 1 in 8. I think people get confused that the smaller number is a faster spin rate. 1 in 10 is for short and light varmint rounds like 40 grain. Lead bullets can be shorter due to the density difference between lead cores and a pure copper round. Go to the Barnes or Hornady web sites; they make it perfectly clear.
I wouldn’t shoot anything over 62 grains in a slow twist barrel and expect sub-MOA accuracy. Hitting center mass at 100 yards can be done with any of them. It’s a 15 MOA wide target at that range for fuck sake. If you can’t hit that, you should turn in your weapon.
FBI uses soft tips. However Id rather use greentips to punch holes in engine blocks or punch holes through the enemy hiding behind steal thick I-Beams. One green tip can punch holes through 2 or 3 bodies at a time. Stick with greentips. Just my opine.

“2016 would mark the first time in Caterpillar’s 90-year history that sales and revenues have decreased four years in a row.”
“An expected permanent reduction in Caterpillar’s salaried and management workforce, including agency, of 4,000 – 5,000 people between now and the end of 2016, with most occurring in 2015, and with a total possible workforce reduction of more than 10,000 people, including the contemplated consolidation and closures of manufacturing facilities occurring through 2018.”

Congressman Confronts Feds: This Looks Like A Secret ‘Coordinated’ Attack On Businesses
“During a Senate hearing Wednesday, Republican Sen. Lamar Alexander challenged a federal labor official over what appears to be a multiple-agency secret attack on the franchise model.
The National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) has recently made efforts to expand a critical franchising rule known as the joint-employer standard. Critics have warned the rule change is just an attempt to help unions by undermining the franchise model.”
“It looks like a coordinated effort to change the law.”
“The Obama administration is apparently determined to use every facet of government to ensure that the SEIU gets access to hundreds of millions of dollars in new funding..”

Oops … tsunami warning issued for CT
The state Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection said a tsunami warning for Connecticut was inadvertently broadcast from the National Weather Service Thursday morning. The alert included Fairfield County, part of Long Island Sound and New Haven, Middlesex and New London counties.
“It was an internal test for the alert that went live,” said Scott Devico, spokesman for the department. “The message was sent through the emergency alert system. The first thing we did was make contact with the National Weather Service and was told it was an accident.” The department later sent out a tweet letting people known it was a mistake. He said no emergency services were activated once it was determined the alert was a mistake.

I come from the land Downunder. 🙂 Earthquakes are rare. Very rare. And Earthquakes over 4 are extremely rare. Tremors happen all the time but are not noticed because they barely register. But, in the last month we have had 2 earthquakes near each other off Fraser Island which is in Queensland – the first 5.4 then another 3.3 a couple of days later. They were centred in the sea but felt on the mainland. At the same time one in Victoria registered 3.3. Australia is outside the Rim of Fire. So, if we are getting bigger ones, there has certainly been an uptick especially the two within a couple of days and near each other off Fraser Island. BTW. Fraser Island is the worlds largest sand island and years ago an area was swallowed up with sink holes.
Can you believe this! I have an earthquake APP and I was shopping and I heard an ‘alarm’ and thought it was the guy next to me. I heard it a second time and thought nothing more. I got out to the car and checked my phone and I had the first earthquake notification about 100klms from me! It was only 3.2 but I can assure you it will make the news tonight!!
And now for something completely different…ALL IS LOST! These claims of the ‘second coming’ (there’s never been a first, for that matter,) have been going on in this country since the 18th century. Read about the Second Great Awakening and you’ll see. The whole myth of Christianity leads believers to prepare for “the judgement day.” There is undoubtedly a major societal and economic breakdown coming, no doubt about it, but belief in an invisible bearded sky zombie is not the solution. The future is here, we are it and we are on our own. The sooner people accept that the better their chances will be.

Who knows, what if….? What if there is some truth to what he wrote? Even I find some of his writings to be far fetched, but I do not discard them and I have no problem keeping an open mind about his post(s).

These large red moons are spectacular. On the 28th of September, they will reach maximum. And be gone. A long walk after dinner while your food digests is the perfect time to watch the sun go down in the west. As night encroaches, the presence of the moon will allow us to see better. I hope everyone takes a few minutes out of their busy lives to go outside and take in these fleeting moments of celestial magnificence.
Absolutely–I’ll be sitting on my neighbor’s front porch. They have the best view of the rising moon, best sunrises, and the best seat in the town for the local 4th fireworks.
Sept 13th-zip,zilch,nada

Satori, I agree about beforeitsnews.com. No credibility whatsoever.
Bravefart and you call this a prepper site..as a preppre site neither does shtf have nany credibility as well.
Tacome, what’s your problem?
We’re living in a land of make believe, and trying not to let it show. Maybe in that land of make believe, heartaches can turn into joy. We’re breathing in the smoke from high and low, we’re taking up a lot of room. Somewhere in the dark and silent night, our prayer will be heard, make it soon. So fly little bird, up into the clear blue sky, and carry the word, love’s the only reason why. -Moody Blues
Betcha the headlines will read….”And on this day September 28th 2015, nothing happened”.
Or …..” business as usual America, …. DOW drops again ….Unemployment still idling at 5.2%(lol) …. there’s so many jobs, we have to import immigrants and refugees to pick up the slack … nothing to worry about in the world, things are looking great – Obama and pals have it under control and fixed Bush’s problems … America is great again …etc..etc…etc.”
September 28th, 2015 = S.S.D.D
apparently it’s the 24th that is the big day

““The governments of the world know that a very large asteroid will hit the earth on September 24, 2015, and they have publicly announced it already through the French foreign minister Laurent Fabius on May 13, 2014. They will attempt to nuke this asteroid, which will break it into smaller pieces that will reign down all over the earth causing massive destruction.”
hmmm
coincidentally
I am leaving the east coast early tomorrow morning for a long planned trip
away from the coast
whew
that’s gonna be a close one !!!!!
They must have got it, so far so good.
Okay….this is going to sound strange and will be dismissed.
I am one of the lucky ones who can fall asleep and do so within 5/10mins. When I say “Goodnight”…..I mean it, I’m tired.
Last night, 09/23/15. As soon as I shut my eyes something appeared in the right side of of my vision: A man in a cave (I was behind him), I was watching him. All of a sudden an explosion of sorts happened.
I decided to open my eyes and see if perhaps I fell asleep! NO! I was still wide awake.
Than I saw…..in the center of my vision a cloud like a man:
Just say’in!
.
” my vision a cloud like a man ”

Revelation 14:14-16 ??

Or taking some really good ACID and tripping 24/7
Re 14:14 And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.
Re 14:15 And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. {ripe: or, dried}
Re 14:16 And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.
tishie, there are many many women having visions and dreams of the prophetic nature.
God uses whomsoever he pleases to. Some of the most real visions and dreams, and even some visitations, have come to women over the past several years.
it is a sign of the times. If you want more, I believe you can have them because I believe what you say is real.
You have to make your self more available for them to come and a sure way to do that is through a 24 hour fast and prayer to receive such. The more an approved person prays for more signs and visions, and the longer they fast, it is very possible that more and stronger/clearer ones come.
You must be a believer, because God doesn’t waste time on unbelievers unless their time is about up.
This is the end…
the end my friend…

Does anybody else listen to music on their computer whilst reading these posts?
Oh maaan, I love this shit.

Well…here’s 717 we won’t have to worry about anymore.

I frequent SuspiciousObservers dot com almost every morning. There seems to be a direct coorelation between earthquakes and 1) planetary alignments and 2) coronal hole streams. So to add fuel to the fire, so to say, his earthquake predictability has been relatively accurate. Our ecosystem is more dependant on solar activity than our interaction with it (I.e. solar cycles can be corroralated with ice ages And with electromagnetic surges as with the Maunder Minimum and an EMP which fried telegraph sites.). Currently, we are entering a 2 “lined” planeyary alignment and space “wind” speed is 500 Kps and the moon is at an apogee ? , My spiritual side wishes for the return. Let it shake baby, let it shake!
Well, I’m not reading all the posts, so this may have been said already…..
This sh!t again?
Where’s the articles, ANYWHERE, about the 23rd and the world NOT ending.
COME ON. Enough of the spooky, spooky woo-woo crap.
Hmmm where are the articles about the 23rd being the end of the world? Did I miss something?
The whole point is a discussion of how not to be a statistic in the next big disaster. It’s a personal thing, perhaps you’ll feel better not wearing seat belts. Go for it, but you might have a personal end of your world!
Well, there is ONE prep I am not AS sure MOST of us HAVE prepped for!
Now WHAT prep would THAT be?
How many of us ARE ready to come face to face with our God in that moment of death?
We SEEM to be on the eve of major cataclysms.
I sure hope I am wrong!
But regardless, any of us could die at ANY moment from ANYthing– a heart attack, a car accident, an aneurysm, etc.
How can we prepare to face God?
Reflect on your life; be sorrowful, ask for forgiveness; treat your neighbor as you would like to be treated.
God bless you all.
– the Lone Ranger
“How can we prepare to face God?”
Technically a person is unable to prepare, it’s not how it works.
People will be judged by how they lived their lives.
Seems most religious people “fear” this scenario when their humanly body dies and wonder where their spirit will eventually go – up or down.
If a person lives their life as being an asshole to others and disrespects others their right to live. Then that person should have something to worry about.
That is the only way to prepare for your God.
From day one, live your life to the best of your ability and that person will not have anything to worry about.
If a person goes through life feeling a lot of guilt, then I suggest that person should start making things right and repair whatever damage that is ailing them.
A person has to be right with themselves, before they get right with their god, otherwise a person may end up on God’s “naughty list”.
As it is said – “treat others, the way you like to be treated.” If a person can live their life honestly and noble as possible. How can God reject that spirit?
I hear you loud and clear! I am not of a church but one thing I know “Each breath one takes is a gift!”
I’m going to go to the Book Shop in my community tomorrow. Getting a Bible. Never had one. I can’t understand when one posts different sites of bible quotes. Yes! I am ignorant …..but willing to learn.
For some reason I “KNOW” that the Lord GOD is with me. as well as his SON. I do not know how or why this is so…….but it is!
Thank You for this post. I truly needed that push.
Acid why do you promote the homosexuals are you gay yourself maybe that would explain it. Anyway it has nothing to do with shtf unless you got a sore ass then it’s personal shtf.
I got out of work early today, so drove the 2 hours back to the farm. spent the afternoon with hubby giving him pointers on how to check zero on his scope. Fist time I’ve had the opportunity to shoot my .308 from 200 yds since I bought it (I have a redfield reticulated scope, supposed to zero at 200 yards, reticulated for a 500 yd shot). 1 teeny tiny small leftward adjustment at 200 and I was all set. at 100 yds between the eyeballs on a gourd.
We’re both all set for deer season. I can’t wait for squirrel season the little fockers ate all my pears, and the scuppernongs, too!
backdoor man .
on another note….hubby got an email from his silver supplier. silver premiums up to 5.25 over spot. that’s 33% or better premium. Mint is having difficulty getting blanks, so orders are taking over a week to fill. He says folks are paying the premium to get the silver, so demand is driving the premium. We aren’t buying right now. just sitting on his show supply and not selling.
Maybe a neutron star will come flying out of space and suck the Earth into it. Hah there was a Youtube documentary about that, it was entertaining.

I liked how Donald Trump’s spaceship had an antimatter explosion failure. Surprisingly didn’t take out… Florida.
But somehow I think it would turn out a bit more like the movie Pandorum. The government spaceship was like 10 centuries beyond anything we could possibly muster, on the inside at least.
BULLSHIT…
I just read that Lloyd Blankfein, head of Goldman Sachs, has cancer. Jamie Dimon, president of JP Morgan, has cancer. And Warren Buffett has prostate cancer.
I’m not going there!! 🙁
Have at it, folks.
Jadr Helm. Nothing! Sept 23. Nothing! Sept 24th. Nothing! WAIT A blood supermoon comith. Credability. Shot!
STFU already!!!
Blood moons mean: blessings where appropriate, curses where appropriate. People need to get right with The Lord. Don’t expect instant action on Blood moons. Just keep looking for it in the weeks and months to come.
Seek The Lord Jesus Christ and you may yet find salvation.
You mean that magical mystery man that does not appear ANYWHERE in the historical record? Look it up. Like Moses and the Exodus and many other alleged events, there is nothing to indicate that any of these people ever existed.
But there is the Bible (babble), a redacted, interpolated and heavily orchestrated collection of books, fables and fairy tales containing over 30,000 known errors and contradictions by which christians gain their delusional understand of the world, the life ‘hereafter’ and their misconceptions of ‘salvation’.
Believe what you want, but ignore reality at your own peril.
Guess that means you’re not coming to the party!
Chicken Little still lives amongst us! Anyone who turns to Bible prophecy to see what will happen in the world is both a) deluded, and b) defying science. If the mumbo-jumbo in the Bible was true, then we would not have planes flying in the air or have placed men on the moon.
Man’s capacity to understand the world and the universe through science is enormous. To eschew that for fairy tales in ancient books – as entertaining and sometimes illuminating as they are – is a big mistake. We have been told the Mayans forecasted we would be gone in 2012, Nostradamus forecast we would be already wiped out in a thermonuclear war by now, and episodes of Star Trek already had us living as cave men after a thermonuclear war with China. The point is not to foretell doom – that is the easy part – the point is to master an understanding of the physical forces of our world, and then act to preserve our existence. Our biggest problem now is population: we need to get human populations down by 5 billion and to ensure the remaining people are high-value. That’s the challenge for the 21st century.
Frank getting rid of the useless eaters and abortions is a start for getting the populations in control. I’ve pondered the over population thing and have come to agree with this principle there are way too many people consuming resources. In the wild animals that are weak don’t survive for long. This is really how things should be but bleeding hearts for the weak have legislated theft of wages to prop up the useless. Forced charity for the greater good at the sacrifice of the individual. When they come up short in funds create a new tax or fee. Some people are useless to society period. They don’t even have the right to eat IMO.
All you conspiratards are worse than what you fear. All you mid iq fucks are making these fear porn directors rich!
Another day on planet earth.
Do not know if its going to be a good day or a bad day
Its in the hands of the CREATOR…….
GREAT Japan Earthquake! Jade Helm! Blood Moon! Shemitah! Oh No now its a Super Blood Moon! The Pope is coming, The Pope is coming! I use to actually look forward to some of the articles from some of the personalities of these websites but its all just gotten to be a complete joke. I guess they’re selling a book or silver or prepper stuff who knows what. Whackos!!
More utter stupidity for Snyder. Typical fear-mongering bullshit from a bullshit ‘artist’ (scammer).
Hagee and others are making millions for this scam. Their math is completely wrong but xtians are too brain-dead to count higher then ten.
Connedspiracy theory is highly profitable. Hold these clowns accountable – stop buying and stop reading their shit.

Apparently, no one here has any real interest
in discussing Sept 28.
.
Atossa,will discuss with ya’s on the 29th!
.
Only if you can shut up all the political discussion
until AFTER the election !!
.
.
Ok… this is my last contribution to this topic.
No one wanted to discuss any of the information I previously posted… so I’ll see you on the other side.
Sept 28 = many important world leaders will be at the UN.
Sept 28 = rumors of an asteroid hitting the Atlantic.
Sept 28 = supermoon eclipse
Sept 28 = Feast of Tabernacles = the one feast that is celebrated world-wide by whoever survives Armageddon.
ALL the clues… all the pieces to a puzzle… seem to be there… that something is going to happen on Sept 28… an asteroid falling from space causing a huge tsunami ?? If so, where ?? Off NYC east coast or off the coast from Tel Aviv ?? Maybe both ?!
Ezekiel prophecy for gog/magog says a fire is sent on gog/magog… an asteroid is a mountain burning with fire… before it hits the ocean.
” a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea ”
Revelation 8:8
.
Yawn….
.
One more interesting comment about Sept 28… at least it’s interesting to me.
I have believed for decades that Jesus was conceived around Dec 25 and was born sometime around the end of Sept. So… when this Sept 28 convergence happened I thought to myself… I wonder if Jesus was born on the Feast of Tabernacles which this year is Sept 28 ?? So I searched the internet and found a couple of websites that also say something similar… but nothing really jumped out at me.
So imagine my surprise when just a few minutes ago I received this in an email from a rabbi.
” There are several clues that Yeshua was born at Sukkot:
1. Bethleham was “booked solid.” This would not have been due census which would have taken place over the period of a year. Every Jew was required to come to Jerusalem for Sukkot (Dt. 16:16) this would have over run Jerusalem as well as Bethleham just five miles away.
2. Yeshua was born in a “manger” or stable. The Hebrew word for “stable” is “sukkah” (as in Gen. 33:17) so it is likely that Yeshua was born in a Sukkah/booth.
3. If Yeshua was born on the first day of Sukkot then he would have been circumcised on the “eighth great day” a festival following Sukkot. This day was the original “Simchat Torah” (Rejoicing in the Torah) which is now held the following day in Rabbinic Judaism. So Yeshua would have entered the covenant on the day of “rejoicing in the Torah.”
4. When the angels appeared to the shepherds they made a statement which closely echoes the ancient Sukkot liturgy “…behold, we have come to declare to you glad tidings of great joy.” (Lk. 2:10-11)
5. Sukkot is symbolic of Elohim dwelling in a “tabernacle” (body?) with us. ”
.
Ok it’s September 28th. So! Kind of like December 31 2012 or 2000 isn’t it.
.
There is another, third sign… stars falling from heaven.
Rev 6:13
” and the stars of the sky fell to the earth,
as a fig tree casts its unripe figs when shaken
by a great wind.… ”
Matthew 24:29
“Immediately after the distress of those days
the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not
give its light; the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken. ”
Mark 13:25
” the stars will fall from the sky, and the
heavenly bodies will be shaken. ”

From the fiery mouth of Draco the Dragon = Draconid meteor shower
This seems to dovetail with Rev 12… from the red dragon’s mouth comes a muslim horde flood against the women with a crown of 12 stars [EU symbol.]
” The maximum number of Draconid meteors are expected to fall on the evening of October 8.
October’s Draconid meteor shower – sometimes called the Giacobinids – radiates from the fiery mouth of the northern constellation Draco the Dragon. Because the radiant is located so far north on the sky’s dome, this shower favors temperate and far-northern latitudes, such as the U.S., Canada, Europe and northern Asia. In 2015, the peak dates will probably be on the evenings of October 8 and 9, starting at nightfall. There’s no moon to obscure this year’s production, so it’s worth a look, although this shower is oftetimes a sleeper. Follow the links below to learn more about the Draconid meteor shower. ”

I read the books aforementioned. Not one author penned that what occurs or occurred said it would happen on the day the events took place. What the authors indicated; that they are “Warnings” or “Signs of the Time,” if you will. Just like the author of this article; there are significant situations taking place that have impacted or will impact human events. If you believe the bible (not some watered down facsimile thereof) to be true, which talks about things to come (3/4 of it is prophecy…fulfilled or unfulfilled), the you need not worry. If you don’t, why worry as well? What do you need to worry about? You’ve made your bed, now sleep in it! I’ve got to laugh…you heed the warning signs of billboards on a highway, you believe the possibility of aliens (demonology), avatar friendlies. Yet the watchman on the wall, you think they’re crying wolf. If they are gaming the system, (making money off books written) then don’t buy it! If you think it’s true…then be like a Berean, and search the scripture to see if it is true. I see a lot scoffers here…are you part of the sign of the times? Maybe or maybe not. Do I care, sure! Can I do anything about it…Millions of voices sounding an alarm? No, I can’t…accept to pray. For those who believe, so long as you are in one accord and in Christ Jesus, is there a worry? Your salvation is secure! For those who lampoon others… lampoon away! Who am I to change your mind. I’ll dust my feet off as a testament against you. You’re a free agent, you can choose. If you made your bed, it’s yours not mine. It’s not so funny when every person has had a chance to accept Jesus. Yet before the judgement seat…you’ll ask when! Your soul, not mine! Your eternal life, is not mine! Your salvation or lack of one, is not mine! Your choice, not mine! Pretty hardcore way to look at it…isn’t it? Your opportunity to accept Jesus IS in this life, and not the next!
