Also, a big issue for electric cars and batteries. They are a warm weather vehicle, which can be a BIG issue with the top half of the country. Cold weather can cut electric car range over 40 percent DETROIT (AP) — Cold temperatures can sap electric car batteries, temporarily reducing their range by more than 40 percent when interior heaters are used, a new study found. Many owners discovered the range limitations last week when much of the country was in the grips of a polar vortex. Owners of vehicles made by manufacturers including Tesla, the top-selling electric vehicle company in the U.S., complained on social media about reduced range and frozen door handles during the cold snap. At 20 degrees, the average driving range fell by 12 percent when the car’s cabin heater was not used. When the heater was turned on, the range dropped by 41 percent, AAA said. For example, AAA’s testers determined that the Tesla’s range when fully charged at 75 degrees was 239 miles, but it fell 91 miles, or 38 percent, at 20 degrees. https://www.apnews.com/04029bd1e0a94cd59ff9540a398c12d1

They have: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a23743195/tesla-tax-credit-deadline-date/ ...." Tesla has reached the beginning of the end of the $7500 federal tax credit for buyers of the automaker's electric vehicles. The rules of the credit spell out that only the buyers of the first 200,000 electric vehicles sold by each manufacturer are eligible for the full amount; after that point, the credit begins to decrease over time. Although Tesla already hit the 200,000 mark earlier this year, the $7500 tax credit will apply to vehicles delivered before the end of 2018. " Who cares about golf clubs? More important, how many rifles, handguns and ammo would it hold? That's a priority!!

Never happen. EVs will always be a novelty or status symbol, or maybe, if you have burnable cash laying around, a toy to drive on Sundays. And this is why. They could never be mainstream for business people, tradesmen or anyone else who drives a lot or has a long commute. Another BIG point that the "Greenies" don't even think about. The amount of pollution and waste from battery production or solar power production is HUGE. When these facts come out, the "sheep" will wake up. Plus, the infrastructure needed to charge large amounts of EVs at once needs to be built, and the power needed to "fuel" them is a issue. Nothing Musk doesn't can survive without government subsidies.

Localized events without a fixable endpoint are. We know after a storm, within a few days, everything starts to return to normal. Fried electronic on cars, businesses, powerplants, computers, phones, telecom, and everything else attached, even in a small region is definitely a nation stopper, just by the economic disruption alone. 9/11 was done by a small group of players. What affect did that have on the region and economics? From a EMP would have HUGE affect on the country. We know what a hurricane does, who causes it and what it takes to rebuild. A EMP from an unknown player would have a BIG affect on the psychology in the country, plus it would be a NEW event, so most people would be clueless on how to deal with it, not to mention their phones would be paperweights, so they couldn't "Google" any information. All local businesses, banks, ATMs. gas stations, etc. would be shut down, due to non-function cash registers, inventory control, and the ability to process credit cards. Since 80% - 90% of people swipe for EVERYTHING, these people will get hungry really quickly. To underestimate what affect a local EMP would have on the area and country is ignorance.

You're completely forgetting about the volume of rifles that are owned. Even the basic Ruger 10/22, which many people own, originally came with a 25, then we got neutered to 15, now 10. Just about every semi-auto rifle sold takes a mag that's 10+. Plus, most mid size and larger semi-auto 22, 9mm, .40 handguns take double stack mags that are 10+ It's a lot wider of an issue than you think.

Sandy was a localized event that only lasted a week for most people. Plus, we had days advanced notice to be prepared. An EMP, even if localized, would catch people off guard and unprepared, and would last longer than a week to get fixed, even if there were any immediate repairs that could be done. In many places, electronics would be fried, to NEVER restart. You think a multi-state EMP would have no effect on the nation?

I can't argue with that, sounds reasonable to me. But this is the Communist state of NJ, so I don't think THEY remember what the constitution actually is.

Probably because of this line in the application: Each person applying for a Permit to Carry a Handgun must supply a letter of need, specific in content, as to why they have a need to carry a firearm in the State of New Jersey. If this application is employment-related, then your employer must supply this letter. List the reason for this application: That is the deciding factor. Who gets to decide if it's an appropriate reason or need?

She should match it up with this, would make a nice combo:

She can borrow mine.

Maybe there's an issue with that kit? I have a propane only, and it starts on the second pull, the first pull is more of a primer pull. Propane needs a different type of prime than gas.

A little off topic, but relevant to this discussion is that dog eat dog mentality and how the "sheep" completely collapse when the most simplest things fail. Wells Fargo has had outage issues the past day, and the "sheep" can't access the bank from their phone app and some debit cards have been denied. Go to this link and read through the comment, and even the Tweets the people have posted, to see the panic and unpreparedness of the majority. Most don't even carry or have cash available for situations like this: https://downdetector.com/status/wells-fargo Read those tweets, and you'll know why you need to be personally prepared!

Not unproven, tests go back to the 60's. It's definitely a proven weapon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_Project_K_nuclear_tests How much do you think the technology has been improved since the 60's?

Incorrect, you certainly can. They are no different then a gas generator. They have traditional pull cords, just like a lawnmower. Why do you say you can't hand crank them. The only difference is propane is a gas not a liquid in the carb.

Ha... that was going to be my next post. Grab a car alternator and a rototiller, and you'll be able to rig up a charging system that will charge batteries and run 12 volt lights.

Here's the link to the PDF, this should be read by EVERYONE!!! https://epdf.tips/one-second-afterb57f885b34b4c266285e7e07d035da1197724.html I read it on a plane trip a few years ago, very interesting, will hopefully make you think.... and PREP!

Is It Time Yet?????

History is your friend, happy reading. Ever hear of the Carrington Event? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_storm_of_1859 Propane generators, not diesel or gas.

I think they are already here. Can you apply the CWD to the Liberal brains wandering around the country?

Where do we mail the bill for the consultation fee?

Some additional information that came out today. Seems ICE has their Hoover out and is doing some "vacuuming" in the area recently. HOLLY SPRINGS, N.C. (WTVD) - Officials with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement are confirming to ABC11 the continuation of near-daily "targeted immigration arrests" of undocumented immigrants in North Carolina, including the reported detention of six people in Wake County. El Pueblo, an immigration advocacy group in North Carolina, tells ABC11 that three of those detained in Wake County were arrested in Holly Springs, and additional raids Wednesday brought at least a dozen more immigrants into ICE custody from Charlotte, Durham and Burlington. Wednesday's reported raids follow a busy Tuesday for federal law enforcement in the Triangle: ICE agents took custody of 27 individuals working at a manufacturing company in Sanford. According to ICE officials, 25 of those arrested were identified through criminal search warrants. "ICE does not conduct any type of random or indiscriminate enforcement," Bryan Cox, a spokesman for ICE, asserts to ABC11. "The agency focuses first and foremost on criminal offenders and other public safety threats." On Wednesday, Cox also provided new data to the ABC11 I-Team showing 15,189 arrests of undocumented immigrants by the Atlanta Field Office, which covers Georgia and the Carolinas. Among those detained, 9,490 (62 percent) were convicted of criminal offenses, while 4,464 (29 percent) were first detained by local law enforcement on other pending charges. https://abc11.com/i-team-ice-arrests-reportedly-continue-wednesday-across-nc/5123932/

Three word posts can do that?

Well, then clarify, how do you scare off guys that are trying to break into your car at night with audio?
