Should I be surprised at the number of fat people in those pictures?

Creepy.

Pretty much this. I guess part of their survival plan involves storing up calories for hibernation?

I damn near ate my cigarette laughing when I read that

The group in question has a public website if anyone is interested. Fark ated the link, but it's just a google away.

I don't see all that much wrong with this. However, these guys remind me of the guy who is a karate master, but when he finds himself in a real situation, has a hard time with the execution of his skillset.

It's ok if you wanna be fat, but can you see these guys running through the woods with all that gear and weaponry when you are facing real people with real guns and you actually have to move your ass with a quickness lest you be dead? That goes for the guys who aren't fat either..

It's all fun and games, till they start shootin back.

AK-47's, glocks.  they're all the same if u ask me

Every free man and woman should understand the basics of being a rifleman.

They also need to work on their spacing and movement.  One grenade would take out their entire "squad".

Apparently jerk-off material for at least one farker in this thread.

They don't look especially skilled at handling weapons. It also doesn't look like they're being particularly safe with them.

Yeah, it's pretty much boring nerd-shiat if yoiu don't have OCD or Asperger's.Fail in Human Form: Every free man and woman should understand the basics of being a rifleman.

Well, basically, this is your rifle, and this is your gun............

The camera adds 10 lbs.

The purpose of keeping weapons around isn't just for rebellion against the government, its also to protect yourself from other citizens (which, among unlikely scenarios, is the likeliest).

To that end you don't need the same level of training as some guy going off to kick in doors in Kandahar.
The folks you'll be up against, at worse, will be similarly unskilled militia or former military looking for easier targets than an armed camping party.

as well he should be. a crappy tapco SKS and a 38 for a sidearm? obviously his father knows nothing about guns! personally i carry a Beretta 92A1, a glock 19, and a glock 26 in my bugout kit- one in the pocket, two on the vest. 2 extra mags for each. my MBR is a Colt LE6920 with 400rds of tracer-LAP-Ball-Ball-Ball rotation in pmags. thats how a real american defends his woods! and by george, if i have to snipe me a critter, my mosin is up to the task. while heavy and unportable, for an encampment it makes a fine deer gun. not to mention that my YHM 7.62 Phantom works well on all the above rifles!

Pffft, I prefer a phased plasma rifle in a 40 watt range.

namatad: thugs with guns
every post-apocalyptic novel pits the rational collaborators against thugs with guns.
why share or plan in advance when all you need is bunch of jimbos with guns.

For these people, The Ant and the Grasshopper ends with the Grasshopper mowing down the Ant and eating all the Ant's stored food.

And for many liberals, it ends with the government taxing the ant because it's just not fair to the grasshopper.

Not just that, but you can almost read that entire families future therapy bills in that one picture.  Look at how earnestly the little girl wants to be exactly the child daddy wanted, and how pudgy, neurotic and frazzled the little boy is over knowing that it's him instead but every time he miss-steps or makes even a minor mistake daddy will explode.  You can't even see his head but you can tell Daddy is focusing his attention almost completely to the side the boy is on.


/oooorrr, we're both reading too much into it.

tinfoil-hat maggie: Sorry I've known to many rednecks and their not gonna change.

Don't worry, the federal government is coming up with ways to deal with it:

"Detailed information on each category of ideological motivation can be found in the Profiles of Perpetrators of Terrorism-United States report compiled by the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism (Miller, Smarick, and Simone, 2011). Briefly, the report describes each category as follows:

Extreme Right-Wing: groups that believe that one's personal and/or national "way of life" is under attack and is either already lost or that the threat is imminent (for some the threat is from a specific ethnic, racial, or religious group), and believe in the need to be prepared for an attack either by participating in paramilitary preparations and training or survivalism.

Groups may also be fiercely nationalistic (as opposed to universal and international in orientation), anti-global, suspicious of centralized federal authority,  reverent of individual liberty, and believe in conspiracy theories that involve grave threat to national sovereignty and/or personal liberty."

Looks more like douchebag training.

Oh noes. A bunch of rednecks went camping with some guns. Alert the farking  media.

i looooove that movie

My buddy and I watched that movie about a dozen times before basic.  I remember sitting on my duffel bag at reception center getting ready to head out on the bus.  One of the guys was smiling and one of our future drill sergeants came over and said, "Are you having a good time private?  Don't worry we'll fix that".  My first thought was farkkkkkkk here we go.
