There is nothing, at least for me, by way of "I told you so" attitude. I simply see the need to wake as many people as possible from the dream world and encourage them to be more prepared for any national or global disaster or disruption.

Survivalists simply understand that we need to learn to be able to do things for ourselves instead of being saps who are dependent on the State. Survivalists don't believe the State will look after them so don't want to be left out in the cold.
The naysayers and those who deride survivalists and preppers, will be the first to go reaching for others when TSHTF and when their food and water have run out in a few days. I really don't understand why anyone would disparage those who are thinking ahead and making basic sensible precautions.

Nope. not at all.
I was for many years a NCB specialist, so I know all the dangers.
I cannot understand the mentality of those who would unleash them on the world, so many innocents dead.
That is so, so, wrong.
I would not retaliate in kind, I can see no value at all in killing their kids because they have killed mine.
I would however like to live long enough to have a chance of killing those responsible for using those weapons.
A forlorn hope I know, but those who would need to know that they will personally pay the price.
