As many of us have warned about since 1990 our weak justice system and very liberal society that gives criminals more rights than law abiding citizens, the streets across much of the UK are now becoming no go areas.

People, ordinary people totally prohibited by law from arming themselves to protect themselves from every more and growing VIOLENT street gangs, coupled with a discredited, failing and ineffective police service ( unless you say something bad about muslims of course) has led to street gangs now controlling many towns and cities after dark.
 
I've seen this in London in 2009. Groups of men in the streets of Streatham and Brixton, hooded, with eyes full of contempt. I've seen Greenfell Tower in Kingston and those who lived there and how they lived (exaple: full trash bags throwing thrugh the windows on the street) - no wonder that this buliding was burning (2017 I guess?). This is not only problem of UK. Same story is in Sweden, Denmark (no-go zones). Europe as we know it is falling apart.
 
I have been lucky so far, we go downtown often, but it has much to do as how you present yourself also. I'm 5'6" and weigh 210 lb. most of the slime would rather avoid me. Dress no-conspicous. Nobody can see the gray man. No funny rich clothes, no visable jewelry.
I carry three different knives, two folders and a sheath everywhere I go. Gun control is stiff. I have a 5 ft. whip CB antenne in the car within reach. My belt buckle is solid brass and weighs in a 1/4 of a lb. on the end of a 30 in. solid leather belt, it makes a very scary club for the ******* out there. But, if he has a gun, he's the boss. No money or jewelry I own is worth dying for and there will always be another day.
 
6.0' and 185 lbs. I am the gray man. Nobody stops to talk to me or even ask me directions. My head is on a swivel and I don't smile. I don't make an inviting target for conversation or an other activity.
 
Funny you ask, now that I think about it. The more Turks in a city the more problems. The Turks are not the problem though. Like all places in the world, it is the fanatic muslim, the fanatic christian, the fanatic bodybuilder or even the fanatic soldier who cause the problems, just the 1%. I fought in Croatia. On one side of me was a Croatian, on the other, a Serb, next to him was a Ukrainer and even further was a French legionaire. As we fought and talked together in the quiet times, I realised that we were fighting against the fanatics, (they were also mixed up) We shot down an airplane. The plane was a french Mirage, with a Croatian pilot, bombing Croatians with an American Maverik air-to-ground Rocket, he was carrying a Russian Tokerev 7,62 cal. pistol with Romanian ammo...
Nobody ever wins a war. Everybody loses. Only the rich make more money and the fools who think they can change something have to live with the nightmares...
Every land has its good and bad. Every garden has its flowers and its weeds. That is life. Don't be a weed and if you have to; pull some weeds to let the flowers grow! GP
 
I have spoken with many others here, American and German. Think about this: if 144,000 Americans landed in Normandy in June of '44, and in April of '45 the war in Europe was over; what will be happening if 2,300,000 Immigrants have come to Europe and only 1% is bad? Do the math and start prepping more. The president of Hungary !!may!! be a bit nationalistic/dictatoristic, but he raised his hand and said he would protect Hungary. He made a statement as to why he did not want any of the
immigrants staying in his land...""Why are MUSLIM persons coming 2000 miles, to a CHRISTIAN land, when they could have gone 600 miles to a MUSLIM land?
(Saudi Arabia or United Arabian Emirates) AND the Turks (Ottoman Empire) were in Europe for 400 years before the Hungarians and Polish finally kicked them out, AND THEY WILL NEVER BE WELCOME IN EUROPE AGAIN!!!""
 
In the UK and the EUSSR its not just the recent arrivals who are becoming more lawless and violent , thats where it started but now its spreading across the UK especially on the sink estates in the larger towns and cities.

We have a police service that has gotten ever LESS effective but more politically correct, diverse and inclusive since the 1990s. So Car theft, robbery, burglary, muggings, stabbings, shootings, shop lifting, stealing, vanadalism etc often sees NO police response, but say something not politically correct online or at work or in school and the police turn out in force.

One UK Police force has just been put in special measures ( Cleveland) scandal after scandal including multiple Chief Constables sacked for criminality, the massive London Met Police has just been utterly condemned in an official report as inept and incompetant. Thats just the police.

Example is the Extension Rebelion extremists have brought London to a standstill the police have for WEEKS simply stood by and watch insteadof arresting them. It has cost over $20 million in policing and cost the economy tens of millions of pounds.

Next is our justice system where robbers, muggers, car jackers , druggies can have over 100 convictions and STILL not be sent to prisoon, the **** who robbed my 87 year old mum at knifepoint in her own home was out on bail for robbing her neighbour the day before. But make an UNPC comment about ethnics, muslims, child groomers etc and you will go to prison and lose your job.

Did you know that in the UK they allow Trans Sexuals and Drag artists to go into primary schools to talk about homosexuality to 6 and 7 year olds, but they arrest christians for refusing to take bookings from gays.

The Welfare dependent know all of their entitlements yet none of their responsibilities, Yet we see them repeatedly being given new council houses and wrecking them, getting evicted then the council imediately rehousing them.

Young girls often use having children as a way to a free house and free money they just produce more and more kids all supported by the tax payer, they inevitably become disruptive troublesome families.

We see British families waiting for DECADES in some cases for a Council house whilst refugees are housed immediately.

We have tens of thousands of illegal immigrants passing through multiple save EU countries to come ILLEGALLY to the UK, then be houses, fed, educated, cared for even though they are criminals ( Frau Merkels friends) Huge areas of our cities from Rome to Milan to Paris, Berlin, Hamburg, London etc with large gangs of illegals roaming the streets panhandling, begging and attacking women. The LABOUR PARTY of the UK wants to open our borders and let them all in.


Sooooooo crimes of all types are increasing by 20% a year especially VIOLENT crimes, compounded with a police and Justice system that no longer works in any meaningful way and the states ONLY response is to pass laws that make it ever harder and more illegal for citizens to defend themselves..
 
YerbaMate, do ever come to Germany? I'm planning a survival camp in the next few weeks and would be happy to see you there! GP
 
I moved out of a city 20 years and out of a medium sized town 10 years ago, I now live in a low population low crime area, haven't had any problems crime wise since we moved here 10 years ago, living in a small place where everyone knows who you are, where you live and in some cases even where you work stops any locals from doing bad things.
 
how easy is it for a white British born person to emigrate these days? I tried to emigrate to Canada 40 years ago and they'd virtually closed the door even then.

Just go BC on vacation and stay. Find a lady prepper and make a go of it. Just don't try to drive a taxi there, that branch of work is a monopoly by the Pakistanis and you would probably get shot in the first week.
 
That's where to have a BOL and practice doing it a few times, the main highways will be closed to all except Military. The side roads will be blocked by Bugouters and people just trying to get away from the ******** and danger of the big towns. Need to find a small road path to get out,,, or Bug in and make your house look like it has been ransacked and burned. Flat Black painted cardboard with glued on pieces of glass to make the outside of the windows broken and the house dark inside. Spray paint the outside walls to look like it has burned. Some old furniture in the yard and have a go with your fantasy too. Have an old fire extinguisher filled with kerosene/petrol and pressurised like a flame-thrower if needed. Mix petrol with styrofoam and make your own napalm. Play the game till it becomes a game no more...GP
 
OR live so far from the big cities in a country that has an obesity crisis that no one is going to be able to WALK very far.
I have never been a believer in the golden horde theory, not in Britain anyway.
 
GP you've got the point with politics and war when you describe Croatian conflict. Some of my older friends was there when Yugoslavian conflict was burning. As a veterans they describe a lot and share their knowledge in army. In private they say more... I learned that in the end, we are all the same so why we still struggle? Pointless, but it's in our nature as history's showing.
Anyway, I'm pacifist and I will be fighting for peace till the last bullet ;)

Thanks for invitation GP but I've got 4 months old son and at the moment long hard road with polish building/construction law so near future is busy to me but I wish to say that if find some time I will gladly meet.

About violence, politics (not only Merkel) decided to invite so called refugees and thats their bill that we gonna pay. World as we know it is changing to something very ugly. History teaching us that we must be prepared.
 
given the history of Poland i'm surprised the whole population aren't prepping.

Lots of people are prepping but they just not called it prepping. It's like tradition to gather jars with food stuff in our basements, spare parts, candles and so on but modern times creating CONSUMERS even in my coutry. COOL to have new smartphone, COOL to party in pub, eating in restaurant, relax in all inclusive hotel, it's so fking COOL that's makes me sick. Society is getting soft and lazy. Too much TV, plastic music and stupid celebrities saying what's COOL. Plastic spirit of the age...
We are not better than anyone, we just still have more fuel in blood and like to fight.
 
I agree with you about society being soft and lazy, so many of our population here believe "nothing bad will happen" and everything will stay the same, for ever, but if they looked at history they would see that is not the case.
 
Yes bigpaul but you need to WANT to look back like WANT to read books. People dont like to even think that may be worse...
 
you can take a horse to water but you cant make them drink...……….. old British saying.
most people do not want to discuss anything bad, nobody wants to know anything that might change their lifestyle, foreign holidays, new mobile phone etc.etc.
I guess you have to be a certain age to even contemplate prepping, at least in most western countries, there are few under 40s in my country who are serious about prepping, maybe as a minor "hobby" until the next COOL thing comes along, this is reflected in the UK prepper forums which seem to have a vast turnover of user names and a small nucleus of hardened preppers all of a certain age.
 
Yes, age seems to be determinant but in our community it's start from circa 30 y.o. Youngest are choppy and it may be just a new hobby.
 
given western human history, especially over the last century, you would think most people would be prepping in some form or other, but I guess its not COOL in the 21st century.
or are people so engrossed in the latest reality show that they just cant see anything else??
 
Well said bigpaul, Poland stopped existing for a while and they will be in the news very soon and loud since the US has decided to send 37,000 troops there for a
very large manover/military exercise in 2020. Only those who close their eyes and will not see, are the truly blind.
The atrocities you saw in the Yugo war on the TV, were not 20% of the real story...all my life, I believed that there is good in everyone. We all live, eat, get married,
even have kids and go to church. Until I saw and heard what was going on there. If I told you only some of the stories, you all would have nightmares. After I came back, I moved out of the house and lived in another town for 2 1/2 years to come back down. Wouldn't wish it on any of you though...but please get ready enought...GP
