Similarities does not mean it's an exact replica. We can obviously see similarities in nearly anything...especially in terms of Government officials...good or bad with historical figures and events.
It's been done with every President since I've been alive...so no insult was intended.
So, what would you do if the events that we've seen happen in other countries started to take place on our own lands?
Or would some prefer to be naive and not even consider the possibility that what happens in the rest of the world is not plausible to occur in the USA?
From my side, we continue to live life and enjoy our surroundings, but we've also discussed what to do if the unthinkable were to ever happen. To discuss, communicate and plan a response is not paranoid, but rather sound thinking.
Paranoid would be to act on it, without an event ever occuring...
We've got a link up point in some rural destination that is 100's of miles away from any MAJOR city. We have weapons and other resources available to protect and survive.
So what about you? Perhaps you have no concern and thus your plan is to ignore and do nothing...it a way, it's your faith that allows you to do nothing as you don't believe anything will ever happen.
It makes for some fun discussions and again, as it relates to now...it's based on the current administration...most likely, this administration will never get to that point...yet, if they did and you took the it'll never happen perspective, would you wish you had at least discussed what to do in the event of?
Think about hurricane katrina...how many victims of Katrina had wished that they had taken the possibility a bit more seriously? Things happen regardless of what we believe...planning on a wost case scenerio doesn't take much and if it ever took place, you'ld at least have a plan, rather than being a victim.
