"Homestead," a new movie from Angel Studios, is causing a bit of a stir in the preparedness/survivalist community. Read our review of the movie with an eye to the practical questions that it raises.

I am not interested in discussing if the Swedish are right or wrong, but they just sent a pamphlet on Civil Defense that is worth a read. Worth a watch is this video from Prepared Pathfinder, an English prepper, discussing it and his thoughts on it.

Following a request from followers, I talk through the 'In Case of Crisis or War' preparedness pamphlet issued this week to the Swedish population.I introduc...

It is with great sadness that I read that Tom Brown Jr. passed away a few day ago. When I was growing up his Field Guide series began my education in wilderness survival and helped me through a hard childhood.

I very seldom think of people as heroes, but he was one of my few real personal heroes. His books are a treasured part of my library and I will always cherish what I learned from them.

Walk in Beauty teacher, I send my prayers and best wishes to his family.

We all know Democrats won't defend your gun rights, Republicans aren't any better. Libertarians are the ONLY party that defends your 2nd amendment rights fully.

Checking out "Civil War" to see what the hype is.

“Civil War”
I am sure that most are aware of a movie coming this Friday from director Alex Garland called “Civil War. I, of course, have not seen the movie, not being a real film critic and not being on the early review list. It is a near-future war film that is centered on a group of journalists traveling in an America torn apart by civil war.
The director has spoken many times about the movie and has made it clear that he worked hard to make it as apolitical as he could with the subject matter at hand. Yet, it is driving the rift in the political spectrum even wider. The public as a whole has not had a chance to see the movie and yet a lot of people, left and right, are convinced that it will somehow support their position. Some people also seem to think that it will incite violence, which it may, but that will not be the intent.
In my opinion, everyone who is reacting without seeing the film is on the road to disappointment. I feel that if we let it, the movie will start a conversation that can bring people together. At best it will teach us about how others think. At worst, people will miss the message and use it as an excuse to hate.
I am convinced of one thing and that is that a Civil War in America would be the worst thing that could happen. I hope that the story in this movie will show us that and I hope that people will keep an open mind.

A new post, Survival Library: Nuclear War

There is no more frightening threat than Nuclear War. To this day, I hear people say they try not to think about it because it would be the death of us all. The fact of the matter is, unless you live in a primary or secondary target, you are more likely to survive the initial attack; what you do dur...
