Vito,
You ever go over to Cape Charles?

If he doesn't he should. Up to Tangier, too.

No, I had every intention but prolly will not soon due to bad health. Chemo &
radiation left me too weak to handle a boat if the going got at all rough so I
gotta stay within a short sail from the pier for now. Maybe this fall ....

Thanks


Sorry for your troubles...that's the pits...have you tried a
homeopathic diet along with all the other stuff? My cousin used it
when she was going through chemo and radiation and felt that it
helped a lot....at least you can get out there a little bit...better
than not going out at all...

Good sailing is just getting started up your way. You should
recruit a crew. I'd suggest some people from this unruly mob
but I don't think following orders is on any ASA'ers resume....

Anybody who does not own a weapon after seeing what happened in New
Orleans when cops are not available is a fool. I purchased an AR15 for
my "when the **** hits the fan" weapon. I also bought enough magazines
and ammo to hold off the criminal element for days until law
enforcement gets back on line. They will move on to easier pickins
after only a minute of trying to get into my house.

Well, Vito probably wouldn't be very good no matter how much
BBQ sauce you put on him....

You may only get into worse trouble. You might attract
heavyier caliber return fire, or you may become all that
much more attractive a target for theives who want your gun
& ammo.

Unless one has the capability... physical, intellectual,
emotional, whatever.... to deliberately kill another human
being without so much as an eyeblink of hesitation... one is
better off with a different means of deterrent than a gun.
That's the whole point of a great deal of military & police
training.

The next step is skill with the weapon. Special forces guys
average 200 rounds per day of live fire training! Join a gun
club and get into good practice. It's fun, too.

Not true. In New Orleans the only houses that were spared were the
ones with people and weapons inside. Home owners with weapons
protected themselves, their loveones and their STUFF! If you didn't
have a weapon in your home the thugs/criminals were just walking in and
telling anyone inside that they were taking what they wanted and that
there was nothing you could do about it and the police would not be
responding.

Under anarchy I wouldn't blink.

AR15s are also the prefered weapon when 200 zombies are coming down
your front street.

Oh, I forgot to ask what better deterrent might be available under SHTF
conditions? SHTF conditions are no cops, no electricity, no
transportation, no nothing and roving bands of unafraid criminals are
coming. I'm not a gun nut so I'll truly listen.

So...just what East Coast disaster are you waiting for? The mammoth
tsunami?

Too many chemicals....bet he'd make good bait, though.
