Now, this group comprises just under 1.29 million, or less than 0.5 percent of the U.S. population. Quoting: Starbird ^ From the Google machine. The military is very good at what it does - but they are not swooping in like the Miracle brigade to solve all the pandemic problems and save the day. I think some of you think we have millions and millions of troops that will just suddenly fill the streets and calm any and all chaos. Nobody is coming to save you. They and their families are also not immune if this virus is real. Be prepared to stand your own ground. Add something to your preps - a can of spray paint to paint a Q for Quarantine on your door. Maybe it will keep the looters out who will also be getting sick soon enough - Its about to go mad max - or - maybe it will just miraculously go away. Who knows. But GI Joe is not your answer. A 12 gauge full of buckshot is. |
