Emergency Food Supplies

We were in Costco Saturday and saw these white 5 gallon sized buckets of emergency food for sale. $109 for something like 270 meals, enough to feed 2 people for about 45 days. But they were giving out samples and the darned things tasted like pig barf, or like they might have been made from restaurant discards.

Then we watched the latest version of War Of The Worlds last night, the modernized one with Tom Cruise ( done by Spielberg ) . It was very well done and could scare the daylights out of you. ( especially with our 270 watt 6.1 channel surround sound here 🙂

So I was thinking, you know, an emergency food supply isn’t such a bad idea, in case something extreme should happen. Maybe not anything as incredible as an alien invasion, but what if we got into it with Iran and they managed to nuke a dozen American cities at the same time?

But then I thought, wait a minute. We don’t need those disgusting MRE style emergency food supply buckets. Well, maybe we could have one or two around for side dishes, but the main course is here already.

We have guns and at least 1000 rounds of 7.62×39 ammo for the AK and SKS. Liberal pacifists! They’re unarmed and they’re all over the place. Food on the hoof! And if you’re lucky, you might even find a nice corn fed vegan or two.

It was good enough for Colorado’s most famous cannibal, Alferd Packer. In fact at CU in Boulder they were having annual Alferd Packer Day raw meat eating contests, until they were informed that eating raw meat might be hazardous to your health.

Now my main question is; Are liberal pacifists considered red or white meat, and what kind of wine would be appropriate.

There are only three kinds of people:

Predators ( i.e., those who cannibalize their own species) alpha

Prey ( i.e., those who allow themselves to be eaten ) beta

Those who refuse to be either ( i.e., an armed libertarian ) gamma

If you’re not predatorial ( the first prerequisite of gamma ), yet don’t have the will or training to defend yourself, then you are by default prey. As the harshly accurate saying goes:

There are no victims, only volunteers. ” – Boston T. Party

“If you look like food, you will be eaten.” – Clint Smith of Thunder Ranch
