An area gun shop had a few nice single shot 50 caliber bolt action rifles with bipod and scope for sale for only a few thousand bucks or so until a couple months back when some locals sold bought and sold some newer model pick up trucks.

Sure am glad I consider all of the collectors who bought them decent friends of mine.

I didn't see the show, but this is insane! If this woman is agreeing to this, I think CPS and the health board needs to be involved. This is not a home birth issue. Two c-sections then a vbac needs to be done in a hospital in my opinion. At the very least a midwife if your gunna do it at home, but planning a c-section is insane. This man is talking about performing a major surgery. If he is not a physician and he does this....... Wow!

Agree completely. I think a do-it-yourself vasectomy would be completely appropriate for this guy. Alternatively, we could send the wife a couple of bricks and she could take care of it.

Anastasia made from bleach.... Yeah... That was smart thinking lol

And also hydrochloric acid he said... Um.. I think he should go take a chemistry class to go along with his medical book reading.. .

As to what someone else said, about him preforming a surgery, I sad to my wife at the time, I'm sure that would get him tossed in the pokey...

BUT, if as this guy said, the roads are so jammed that you can't get to the hospital because SHTF, what else can you do?

Cps and Health because he Might have to try it on his own if there are no other options? I agree that this guy is an idiot but more government involvement is never the answer

While looting is a viable and necessary skill, post shtf there will be plenty of abandoned stores and homes with supplies you can use before resorting to going in and taking what you want from other, possibly more skilled, survivors than you. To state on tv and the 'net that you aren't willing to work with people and will just come in and take what you want is painting a target on your face.

I'd be all for joining forces but you won't take what I need to survive without a fight.

I prefer for people to think preppers are not serious and "obviously" fake for tv. Then they aren't looking at me or any of my friends.

I already plan for such things as "Bubba". I live in an area with many "Bubba"s and many more guns than people. Everyone should figure in such type of people when planning.

Edit: Come to think of it, if you know you have a "Bubba" around, it might be good to let him roam around taking stuff from other people, then go take him out and take his stuff he got. Let him be a target and let him trip all the booby traps and attract the attention...

Good advice. ^^^

I watched... I was rupulsed and......Angry. Yeah, the Bubba's, looters and sheeple are out there,.....but.......Oh, I was ticked. HE IS A ignorant, lazy, WACKA DOODLE, and I hope he shows up here.:flame:

i cant fix stupid but nature can.

Hey, TDD, I get him first...he's closer to my house. Thankfully, far enough away that he'd never survive getting that far. Big bag 'o lard...if he put as much effort into making his land productive and prepping to support his family instead of deliberately planning to be a boil on the backside of humanity, he'd have a very nice place, and probably lose some weight.

As for his body armor, the plates didn't survive a shot from a 30.06. And then he puts the vest on and tells his friend to shoot him with a 12 gauge...AND THE FRIEND DID IT. Too bad it wasn't loaded with slugs - it would have eliminated a couple of idiots.

MGM - I KNOW!! MEGA IDIOT!!

If that is the best effort he can do to provide for his family....Well, that IS just plain STUPID!

And, the wife......She supports that stupidity??? AGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHH!

He is closer to your place......I actally thought about you, during the show.......He'd have his hands full.....heh heh heh!

I went to a friend's home last night and when I arrived he was watching NatGeo which was showing that program again and I caught the last 15 minutes or so.

What a joke that guy was!!! Him and his cousin both!!! If brains were made of dynamite, collectively they would not have enough to BLOW their noses!!!

Although, in a SHTF scenario I think that they could be dangerous to some for a short period of time, I also think that they would not be a long-term problem. There will probably be a band of 10 year olds that will take them out. Think "Children of the Corn."

I stopped watching the program a while ago, but I did notice that the show's "experts" do not give scores anymore. They just offer some benign advice. When did they stop scoring?

I really think that the program and it's participants are just trying to push the level of outrageousness for increased ratings numbers.

I have never understood why anyone who is serious about prepping would want to show the world exactly what they are doing to prepare? To me it is counterintuitive.

TRellis

TDD, when I saw he was in Tacoma, it embarrassed me to think people might assume all Washingtonians are like him, lol!

TRellis, I think they only did the scoring for one season...I'm glad they stopped. The scores really made very little sense. No one ever got over about an 80, iirc, even the preppers that really had nice setups. They always found something wrong.

I had to laugh at the advice given to the idiot...improve your own supplies so you can be part of the solution, not the problem. Think he'll take it? Personally, I doubt it!

Yeah, every time I watch one of these shows, I wonder why on earth someone would willingly reveal to the world what they have, especially their "secret rooms" and "escape tunnels". Really? You don't think ANY of the people watching will recognize you? :rolleyes:

I think they pick the ludicrous folks to make fun of "Preppers."

In a way I'm glad they picked him. If for no other reason than the "they are really out to get me" factor.

Need more ammo!

I liked when they panned back with the camera and they were all standing there with their arms crossed trying to look threatening, yep to a big mac... He will be the first one to freak out and cry if the SHTF

I came across this reply to this show. And it does give the guy's photo for the one here that needed it for identification purposes should it be needed.

Doomsday Preppers this year so far..seems stupid. Yes..a few have good advice for all of us.. they do throw a nut or 2 in there for entertainment, for sure. I really wish they would put people on in everyday lives as they did the first year. But, as mentioned, you always learn something from the.. ood or bad. The shows on the channels have changed a lot too, as mentioned. The Green Channel use to have some very good shows showing how to use solar, or live responsible..but now it's about haunted houses etc. Go figure ??

Yeah, and the History Channel used to have real shows about history...now it's all American Pickers and Ancient Aliens. :rolleyes:

He's back...

http://mynorthwest.com/11/2433938/Do...eapons-charges

WOW, he really is a piece of work!! Now I remember why I quit watching the tube!

Certainly confirmation of his stupidity.

I can not believe the guy would be crazy enough to go on national TV and tell everyone he plans to steal from everyone around him. That's about as low as you get.

As a result of being on the show and them filming him shooting, he was arrested since he is a convicted felon.

http://www.king5.com/news/local/Pier...240587101.html

A convicted felon who is not allowed to possess guns was expected to be arraigned Thursday in Pierce County after he was shown on a reality show firing off two rifles.

Tyler Richard Smith was featured on the National Geographic show “Doomsday Preppers,” which follows survivalists who are preparing for the apocalypse.

Smith was convicted for first degree theft in 2009. He also has a gross misdemeanor sex offense conviction for communicating with a minor for immoral purposes. The felony conviction makes it illegal for him to possess firearms. But the sheriff’s department says he was featured on the show loading and firing two rifles. The video was shot last year.

....

Maybe he will be prepped in jail.

So just to sum everything up, Felon decided to go on national tv, commit another felony by shooting firearms and announce his plans to commit more felonies (thefts) against the people around him. I guess the local police didn't like the idea that he said he would come steal from their families, I bet his neighbors threw a party when he got arrested.

Theft is a pretty low thing to do but I think the "gross misdemeanor sex offense conviction for communicating with a minor for immoral purposes" is worse than the theft. I hope he spends a long time I jail. I am glad Nat Geo isn't out to make preppers look bad or anything :rolleyes:

I'd like to know a little more about the sex offense conviction, myself. I'm glad he's in jail. I think he's in the running for a Darwin Award. :rolleyes: ;)

I always laugh about the "bubba" types. Their sheer size alone makes a target the size of the broad side of a barn and their cockiness makes me wonder if they have ever listened to the nonsense they spew. I don't think they would last long in a real survival situation. When it comes down to it, in a shtf situation those that can come together and work together for the benefit of the entire group or family fare the best.

What concerned me about this idiot is that he has a group of ignoramuses that actually buy his nonsense. One fool is easy to get rid of, but a group of them will take more effort especially if there is someone that is part of the group who actually has more than two brain cells to rub together. Sociopaths can be smart and they often gravitate toward this type of group. Being prepared for the criminal element seems like a good idea to me.

Convicted sex offender...convicted felon...goes on
 

national TV showing himself shooting a gun..........
