Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadMost people prepping for trouble think about food, firearms, or gear. But few people start out thinking about clothing as part of their gear—even though the clothes on your back, and whether you have a plan for scaling up and down based on your risk, might matter more than any of it. That’s why my friend Josh Burmeister, a former Navy SERE instructor and Executive Protection pro, and I broke it down into six clear levels. This isn’t about buying a closet full of tactical costumes. It’s about understanding your clothing as a layered,…

Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadA while back, I asked the Mind4Survival community to hit me with their biggest SHTF questions. These are the real concerns people have about what happens when systems fail and the normal rules don’t apply. These are my answers to the questions people asked about their real-world SHTF concerns. No fluff. Just practical insight based on my experience and understanding. And, because this is based on my perspective, I want to be challenged by your perspective. So, as I go through these questions, please think about how you’d respond to the question, and let…
Riders on Chicago Transit Authority buses and trains might notice a few more police around on their morning commute today. The Chicago Police Department announced on Thursday that the city will be boosting security on public transit; a move that comes on the heels of the Supreme Court asking state and county officials to reply to the cert petition filed by plaintiffs in a case challenging the ban on lawful concealed carry on public transportation in the state of Illinois and the CTA specifically. The increased officers also come as the city is implementing a…

Yet, we also are dealing with a publication…
The shooting at Brown University was a weird one, to say the least. The shooting seemed pretty straightforward. A gunman walked into a classroom and opened fire, killing two innocent people. That’s awful, but we can wrap our heads around those facts easily enough. It was pretty much everything after that.First, there was a person of interest arrested, and it seemed they were confident they got the guy, then they released him, all while officials weren’t telling anyone anything.Then there was the shooting death of an MIT physics professor just a short distance from Brown…
