If you have not seen this article you should take a minute or two to read it. This guy had over 1 million rounds of ammo and an underground tunnel under his home.

Unfortunately the article did not mention how much food, water or batteries he had stored up but I would love to see a list of his EDC items!

Gees, I thought I was the only one that thought like that! Oh well, at least he doesn't think to the same scale as I do.

Rule #1, if you are going to commit to non-conformist type activity, be discreet, and don't be careless.

Rule #2, survivalists in California are an oxymoron. Move to Nevada somewhere if you want to pull a Burt Gummer.

Rule #3, don't run back into a burning building unless the nuclear detonator is heat sensitive and you know where the fire extinguisher is. Especially not in front of the firemen and the cops. This just makes you look ridiculously suspicious.

People like this give the rest of us "free thinkers" a bad image.

Funny how the California high desert (and nearby areas) seems to breed folks who are a little "strange" sometimes.

I once read that in Viet Nam the average was one million rounds fired for every confirmed enemy dead (figures from the daily dog and pony shows). If this guy was that good, only one person had to worry...

Well, there is a guy in NH who has stockpiled, & refuses to pay taxes. He has publicly stated that he will kill any LEOs that step onto his property. so, everyone is leaving him alone. The guy is well armed, except for in the brain department.
