Makes perfect sense! ... I'm refered to as the "survivalist" in my family also. When confronted by a PHRASECENSOREDPOSTERSHOULDKNOWBETTER.,and it always seems to be a confrontaion, i calmy ask them if theyhave auto insurance, home owners insurance, health insurance ? then i ask them WHY? they always say just in case .

then i answer with .. my extra food and supplies are my families life insurance for just in case. usualy shuts them up fast.

I can't control much in my life. I can't contol world affairs and who may want to harm us. i can't control the weather ,floods hurricanes,blizzards. there is so much in my life , in our lives that we have absolutely not control over. one of the few things we can control is prpeparing for as many things we can't control. we live in a very scary world. you can call me whatever you want. the one thing you can't call me is UN PREPARED
