Howdy again sir skunkape30uk! Very interesting thoughts on the Bigfoot situation. Very well could be I'm sure.
I heard that any homes for sale in the country are being snapped up in record time over here.

no idea if its true, but its an interesting theory to knock around.
That make sense with the housing market as it is. I think we'll have a possible surge of people buying properties with better locations for survival, defence and bugging out to and then the property market bubble is going to burst in a way which will make 2008 seem like a good year.
You are talking about the real estate market over there being in a huge bubble, I thought maybe it was just us! That's going to be painful but something that has to happen sooner or later I reckon!
Sadly all this shit show is global my friend. You're right we couldn't go on robbing Peter to pay Paul for ever. I think the next decade is going to be very interesting and have a major impact upon the history of mankind. I always wanted to live in historic times, I just forgot that it wouldn't be anywhere near as romanatcised as Iimagined.
Howdy today sir skunkape30uk! I agree. I suppose that living in the UK or the U.S. are probably the best places to weather the coming chaos. I hope. lol.
The U.S would be a better place if things truly went south. Your nation still has a constitution which places value on personal liberties and freedoms and a people whose ancestors decided not to be slaves. The UK is a nation where freedom is simply an illusion, we have never had the right to free speech and our charters of rights such as the Magna Carta were only ever drawn up with the wealthy and privileged in mind. Not to be too cynical but I already live in a police state, hell I can't even carry a knife, and we have people going to prison for being 'mean' to other people on the internet. The British Empire fell and ever since the sixties we've been on borrowed time. I hope I'm wrong but I'd much rather be holed up in the Appalachians or the like right now.
Howdy today sir skunkape30uk! Those are great points. Sad ones but so true. I've been shocked when reading about how people can be arrested for saying the wrong things over there! Dang, over here EVERYONE would be arrested.
I didn't know it was so bad that you could serve time for saying something online though! That is truly shocking.
There are certainly areas that you could disappear in over here like the Appalachians, that's for sure. You sound like you know alot about the U.S. Have you spent time here?
Evening Sir, sorry about the late reply I took a break from the internet in a bid to get all my odd DIY jobs done around the house.
Yes UK laws are pretty intense/ludicrous . Below is a definition from the Metropolitan Police website and Its all hinged around 'perception' not intent which is very dangerous and easily exploited.
'A hate crime is defined as 'Any criminal offence which is perceived by the victim or any other person, to be motivated by hostility or prejudice based on a person's race or perceived race; religion or perceived religion; sexual orientation or perceived sexual orientation; disability or perceived disability and any crime motivated by hostility or prejudice against a person who is transgender or perceived to be transgender.'
I spent time in the states as a boy yes as I've got Family in the South but I was a fat spoilt British kid so spent my time eating sweets and finding air conditioning units to hide under so didn't learn much bar what food I like (still haven't been able to find decent gumbo in the UK). Later on I came to appreciate your nations history through my family and studying history at Uni. I've got a huge love of American culture and especially the concept of being a freeborn man.
