Think fast: What would you take?

minorl, you are right, there is evil in this world.  There is evil in one race constantly victimizing their own race, over and over.  There is evil in victimizing our law enforcement over and over, far beyond their 13% of the population.  There is evil in false complaints about law enforcement victimizing them, when the true statistics don’t bear it out, yet the liberal media embraces in it, despite clear evidence to the contrary.  There is evil in taking advantage of those misguided souls who truly believe in their social justice protesting, in order to loot, burn, and vandalize to their hearts content, most often at the expense of the hard working people of their own race.  Yet heaven forbid someone point this out, because, of course, they will be labeled a racist, and not what their true moniker should be, and that is a REALIST.  It’s amazing to me how almost nobody mentioned taking their guns, because without those, you don’t stand a chance up against the true human predators of his world, who will take from you all that you value and laugh in your face as they do it.  After spending over 25 years a a big city cop in a democrat controlled urban center, I’ve seen, done, and experienced what I speak of.

And I thought MC was sick. Being a cop gives you no better ground to stand on than any other person. My uncle was a captain for Rampart, 66th St., Shootin' Newton, and a few others as well as being one of the lead investigators in the Charles Manson and Sirhan Sirhan cases and he worked Internal Affairs, busting cops that sound like you. 

One day while in my parents driveway, he showed me the bullet proof windows and bomb proof hood of his car. When I asked him if that was for the bad guys, he said, no, it was for the cops who wanted to kill him.

It's cops like you that help perpetuate the hate and dissent in this world so leave off with your special insight for it impresses no one.

All the best,

Nonoise, explain to me just what part of my post SPECIFICALLY you find worthy of internal affairs investigation! Bear in mind internal affairs ONLY investigates CRIMES committed by policemen. You may not agree with me, but you being the nephew of an officer certainly gives you FAR LESS “ground to stand on” than me, especially being jaded by the influence of an internal affairs uncle. Speaking of that, YES I DO HAVE FAR MORE GROUND TO STAND ON THAN MOST when it comes to this topic, I lived it every single day I worked, for over 25 year, retiring in 2015. The nerve of you to say I don’t! Buddy I earned the right to say the TRUTHS that I said. On that note, just what, in your nephewton wisdom, did I say that was wrong? What lie did I tell? There’s absolutely zero in my post that’s even a bit wrong. But go ahead, enlighten me...

‘’And by the way, you’re full of it, NOBODY has a bomb proof hood, that would keep the explosive force of a bomb planted under a car (which is where the overwhelming majority were planted back when that was a concern) from escaping upward, instead keeping it focused under and into the passenger compartment, where it would cause the most damage to someone in the car.  Seems the one accusing me of being untrue is himself the teller of tall tales.

As a CA native who was lucky enuf to live SoCal to NorCal, it's heartbreaking to watch it burn and threaten lives and what made them ones' lives.
To see it engulf OR as well makes one wonder when it'll stop.
To know it's effecting some of this company....*speechless*

Walk, no, Run and save your skin and that of whom you love...spouse, sig. other, children, pets....

Everything else is just Stuff.
What's paramount is between your ears, driving your legs.

Plan ahead. Having had to evacuate here in n. California twice, now I keep records of everything in the house (spreadsheet) scanned receipt copies, pictures of everything, back up drives in a bank vault with important documents. Boxes of irreplacable family history in boxes in the garage ready to go. Many old photos and slides i got scanned and save digitally. I review my insurance at least annually.

So now I take the spouse, the dog,  laptop, the boxes, a week of clothing and the stash of cash. Blankets, because sleeping in the car is inevitable.  A go bag with water and first aid stuff and an n95 mask.  A portable battery/charger for the phone and If time any small things of value that fit in the car.

Since fires generally mean power outages I keep a battery powered radio and emergency battery packs. 

We lost over 5000 homes in my neck of the woods to fire these last few years. I should probably move!
