I saw a banner ad about the new National Geographic show Doomsday Preppers and I felt enough robble robble to write something.
This show reminds me of the Robin Williams/Walther Matthau comedy The Survivors (1983) in which Robin Williams becomes a gun nut survivalist loony while dragging Walther along for the ride. It's one of my favorite movies and really encapsulates my feelings towards American gun fever, survivalists, and general wackadoodle behavior in general.
What the fuck is wrong with these people? The home page calls them, "Otherwise ordinary Americans who are preparing for the end of the world as we know it." These are some nutcases. Otherwise ordinary Americans are people who like swinging or have OCD or addictions to pain killers and ice cream while maintaining a facade of normality. These folks are one bad day away from Falling Down II: Ruby Ridge Race War Gunstravagana.
Now let me say I appreciate those folks who have disaster kits, extra flashlights, water purification tablets, and a shit ton of canned goods. During hurricane/tornado/blizzard/earthquake seasons (yes I know earthquakes don't have a fucking season) it's generally a good idea to have your shit together in case you lose power for a week. Hell, knowing basic "survival" skills - e.g. first aid - is pretty useful in general. I also am a fan of sustainability, urban farming/community gardens, learning to garden, alternative energy sources, and public transportation.
However, training your children to use automatic weapons is fucking retarded. Why do you own a bullet proof vest? Do you really think that there will be some catastrophic Bay-splosion that will buttfuck the world as we know it? Aliens are gonna teabag Lady Liberty in 2012? Better go buy all the duct tape and gas masks before angry little brown people fuck up your honky world.
Jesus Christ on a flaming pogostick what the fuck is wrong with people?
p.s. This "doomsday prepper" mentality is some fucked up selfish behavior. Bad example Christians. Bad. Fuck the Rapture too.

All you had to say in all that babling bullshit was how you hate guns and people who are different from you. Here is all I have to say to you. GO FUCK YOURSELF!
