Prepper Precepts #6 I Don’t Deal in Conspiracies

 

I don’t deal in conspiracies.  Men do evil things on occasion.  Groups of evil men do bad things, but the shear amount of people that would have to be quiet to pull off a “shadow” government is impossible for a bureaucrat to manage.

These guys cannot figure out how to pay their taxes or keep their affairs out of the papers. I work in a bureaucracy, and I know exactly how ineffective they can be at keeping secrets.

Every time someone sends an email out about being on a “FEMA Red list” or “secret prison camps” it only hurts our community and makes us look like nutjobs.

Rules of Civility: The 110 Precepts that Guided Our First President in War and Peace

These precepts are my creed, and having prepper precepts guides me when I face tough choices.  A wise man once told me that when facing a moral problem, the right choice is usually the action you don’t want to take.

I am not a pollyanna person that is wishy washy or blindly follows rules, heck I have a little rebellious streak and love to know the WHY of rules, but I do respect and understand the need for law and know how vital it is for a society to have a moral code.

By knowing what I believe in you can know how I will act. This is very important in times of stress.  If you don’t want to read these precepts one by one, the completed list can be found here: Completed 27 Prepper Precepts.
