I could go on for hours on this, but you don’t have hours, so …

    What we are seeing in response to COVID 19 is PANIC BUYING, not prepping. And it’s a response to the fear being deliberately manufactured by politicians and their media whores.

    When my father retired, many, many years ago, he adopted the philosophy of “why put off until tomorrow what you can ignore completely.” He still kept a full pantry, though, and never let the gas tank get below 2/3.

    I live in hurricane country, so having non-perishables is pretty much the law. I laid in extra in anticipation of covid-19 becoming a problem. One advantage of buying at a warehouse store (sam’s, costco) is that most consumables come in big bundles. So I have about 30 days of food, and more than enough pet food to keep the critters happy.

    And if covid-19 doesn’t turn out to be horrible, I’ll have a jump start on hurricane season…

    If your prepping is based on need [Christian]. If you are taking more than you need it is stealing [pagan]. Of course, in our modern pagan society, everything is based on what you want.

    Medical facilities, nursing homes and homeless shelters and their patients are being punished by shortages created by the Kungflu panic morons.

    Because there is no plan in place for an emergency stockpile at home, the panic buying mob is too stupid to realize that the biggest problem is the NAFTA/GATT just in time delivery system that places just enough on the shelf to keep it full based on seasonal and local buying habits…metrics. Grocery stores with primarily local suppliers will do better in the long run.

    Ninety per cent of the pharmaceuticals come from overseas making that pipeline extremely vulnerable. Free Trade may be the death of America, and Russia and China are just salivating.

    The hardest hit will be the medical facilities, nursing homes and homeless shelters and their patients that are being punished by shortages created by the Kunfflu panic pagans. Its reminds me of the scene in the movie Finding Nemo, where the seagulls are all screaming, “mine, mine, mine, mine.” When people grapple to the point of pulling knives and guns for a roll of toilet paper the pagans have become the animals they worship.

    Since diversify has a lot to do with the panic driven political morass were are wallowing in right now, I’ll throw this in and see if it passes muster.

    The people of Virginia might like to know that Comrade Ralph Northam appointed Atif Qarni as the Secretary of Education. Atif Qarni, a wholesome red blooded American name if I ever heard one. He was born in Pakistan donated to groups tied to the Muslim Brotherhood such as CAIR & MAS. This infiltration is happening at EVERY LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT. Welcome to ShriaMerca

    I’m sure there will be more significant “leadership” appointments to follow. Comrade Northram is a good dog and follows orders.

    This is the prepper/plague related part. Mussies don’t make it a habit of washing their hands. This includes after doing a #2. Mussies in “leadership” positions will not object to this, in fact, it would require a fatwa requiring sanitary procedures to be put back into place which would violate the koran, blah, blah, blah. Which poses the question, of all the countries outside of China why was Iran one of the hardest hit. Dirty hands? Every Arab country is an open wound awaiting any agent X pandemic agent.

    In Europe the rules on wearing gloves and sanitary hospital gowns has been dropped in favor of personal attire, and washing hands is optional. Due to the top heavy intersectional staff in British Hospitals people who make, or have a record of making “racist comments”, will not be admitted.

    In the USSRA over 200,000 people die in hospitals and nursing homes every year due to infections [sepsis is the biggie] and botched medical procedures. Before Obama care it was 75,000. Being a third world banana republic I’m sure the first figure will rise geometricly as the Medical staffs become more intersectional.

    During the Black Plague if a house was reported to have a plague carrier, rumor or otherwise, it did not matter, the house would be mortared and bricked up solid, and the people inside left to die. If history teaches us anything, we ain’t seen nothin’ yet.

    I know that the topic is prepping but none the less, seriously, ugh, Noah was NOT “pretty cool.”

    “But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.”

    “But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons’ wives with thee.”

    “And the Lord said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.”

    The question is; how does one find Grace in the eyes of God? And then, how is one found established in that covenant wherewith Christ has made you free. And then, how are you found Righteous before Holy God?

    Well, this is hours of preaching and we don’t have time here. But, without a doubt, the only place to start, is to find Grace in Christ by believing on Him, in faith, upon His finished work on the cross.

    You are a sinner: “For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.” No matter what, no matter how much good stuff you do, even if you are equitable and try to be honest and good, you are a sinner.

    There are consequences for sin: “And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”

    You can’t be good enough under your own power and your own good works to avoid the wrath and death and hell that you deserve: “Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.”

    The work of God, is to believe the Gospel: “For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:”

    Now is the time, today is that day: “For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.”

    Your ransom has already been paid by Jesus Christ on the cross. The payment that you owe of wrath and death and hell for you sin has already been covered, the cost paid, if you would only, and simply, and firstly; believe that God loves you so very much that He is long suffering and wants not that any man should perish. It is good in the sight of God that all men be saved and come to the fullness of the realization of Christ Jesus.

    “Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.”

    This is the transition, the regeneration, the new birth that you be born again, this time born in the spirit by the grace of God, the transition from Grace to the blood covenant with a thrice Holy Almighty: “And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.” This is the record, a covenant between you and Christ Jesus, that you be established with Holy God to be found as NOT GUILTY, by reason of His Son. Establish this record before the holy throne of God this day; that you believe these things and need to be saved, and the God that cannot lie will save you this very moment.

    Noah did many things to be found righteous, but of a certainty, he found grace and truth first. Then, when grace abounds in your heart, you may be seen of God establishing that walk into Righteousness doing the will and works of Him that saved on you on the cross, born again into His kingdom, the Kingdom of God.

    Isaiah 1, 16-20

    [16] Wash yourselves, be clean, take away the evil of your devices from my eyes: cease to do perversely, [17] Learn to do well: seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge for the fatherless, defend the widow. [18] And then come, and accuse me, saith the Lord: if your sins be as scarlet, they shall be made as white as snow: and if they be red as crimson, they shall be white as wool. [19] If you be willing, and will hearken to me, you shall eat the good things of the land. [20] But if you will not, and will provoke me to wrath: the sword shall devour you because the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.

    I think at this point in history we are at the “the sword shall devour you” part.

    “A deader sort of deceased…”
    “Red alert! Prepare to commit mass suicide! This virus is out of control!

    “CDC estimates that so far this season there have been at least 34 million flu illnesses, 350,000 hospitalizations and 20,000 deaths from flu.
    These numbers are SO FAR THIS YEAR through 29 February in the United States.

    “Of the 20,000 deaths, 136 have been children.

    “But… these infections (34,000,000 is fully TEN PERCENT of the TOTAL POPULATION) are… different. The 350,000 hospitalizations, those too are… different. But the most import thing to remember is the the 20,000 people who have died of H1N1 flu in the US so far this year… they are dead in a DIFFERENT SORT OF WAY. To paraphrase Procol Harum, those who die of Coronavirus are a “deader sort of deceased” than those mere plebs who die of simple H1N1 flu.

    “And the 136 children that have died of flu so far this year in the US? Well, let’s just call them post-natal abortions. Think how much money their parents just saved. Heck, there are probably one or two women out there right now who will be able to become successful Hollywood actresses because their child is dead and they are no longer shackled and enslaved by motherhood.

    “Verse 2 of Procol Harum’s “Whiter Shade of Pale”:
    She said, “There is no reason,
    And the truth is plain to see.”
    But I wandered through my playing cards
    And would not let her be
    One of sixteen vestal virgins
    Who were leaving for the coast
    And although my eyes were open
    They might just as well have been closed.”–Ann Barnhardt

    This is being ignored by the MSM and our so-called government. You NEVER hear of these deaths.

    They are going to use a few thousand deaths from a fakedemic to create panic and institute marshal law. And just like the Patriot Act it will never go away.

    Roadblocks and gestapo tactics will be in force temporarily/indefinately/until further notice. Just like the Airports, your neighborhood, your community, will be in lockdown forever.
    You go to work in the morning, without a thought.
    You come back home to a roadblock.
    Why, you ask.
    Because we can, that’s why. After all, its for your own good.
    But, but, but…
    Are you resisting arrest…

    And those H1N1 victims…who?

    Kentucky Governor Comrade Andy Beshear has urged churches to “cancel their worship services this weekend” over coronavirus fears, while not asking the same of any other institutions where crowds congregate. Nor did he mention any fears of the H1V1 which has killed 20,000, but they don’t count anyway. I mean, how often can we have a pandemic, lets not let the H1V1 sideshow distract us.

    The assembly of Christians who wish to worship God was the only form of public assembly that Beshear wished to discourage. Cinemas, theaters, museums, schools, stadiums, and universities still remain open in Kentucky, which has reported eight cases of the COVID-19 coronavirus.

    Comrade Beshear wants Christian churches closed because he is not a Christian. He is a Churchologist, a worshiper of the god of things. The other forms of public assembly will stay open because they are the chuches of the things Comrade Beshear approves of: the celebrity gods of movies and theatre and The Glass Teat; the gods of the NBA, the NFL, the XFL, MLB, NASL, the NHL, etc; the god of the NCAA playoffs.

    If the sports gods seem to be the most numerous, that is because they create the most distraction from what is important. God.

    And the most overlooked death of a whole group of people is the genocide of Christians in Africa and the Middle East and Asia. Hundreds slaughtered every week. No sympathy there. No MSM. No sermons. No speeches. No military intervention. No UN resolutions. But “they are dead in a DIFFERENT SORT OF WAY”, not to be counted but to be ignored and swept under the rug.

    The president has time to hug the rainbow flag and go to the UN and make a speech calling for the international legalization of homosexuality; he appoints a political hack as pandemic tsar [notice how the ancient Roman word for totalitarian keeps being applied to running dog lackeys and fellow travellers since Dubya was dictator]; but as far as the extermination of Christians…yawn.

    Future historians will look back and say: Look at these records. It’s astonishing. They just sat there, staring into their devices, oblivious to the elimination of their people, their culture, their race, their nation and their religion.

    It’s all a scam to get you into the gulags. And the sheeple are getting in line.

    “Dr. Shiva Ayyadurai, who performs research nearly every day on the humun immune system, says the coronavirus scare the #coronavirus fear mongering by the Deep State will go down in history as one of the biggest fraud to manipulate economies, suppress dissent, & push MANDATED Medicine!

    “Unfortunately for the American people, the left is very good at what they do. That includes fear mongering and economic destruction. They would do anything to destroy the country. Hopefully, the American people understand that they are pawns in a dangerous game. We are needed for votes and tossed aside after the election. This has always been the nature of politics. For those who did not know, now you do.”
