AMMO BARTER 2

When is it okay to surrender to the enemy? Duh. Never. When is it okay to give in to the demands of a terrorist? Duh, same answer. Surrendering is the same as saying, hey, it's okay to labor for my enemy so he defeats my people easier. Or, it's okay if I'm tortured and give intelligence to the enemy who will use it to kill my people. Sure, it's okay if we are all civilized and observe the Geneva Convention, but not even The Home Of The Free does that any more. Imagine how much worse it will be post apocalypse. Hell, even now, would you feel good about how Uncle Sam is going to treat you in captivity?

*

His Black Shirt minions? Ah, NO! Save a round for yourself, because falling on your bayonet is going to be really frigging painful. As far as terrorists, I'll ignore the whole “Uncle is funding and using terrorists as a weapon” thing and just play it straight. If you give in to a terrorists demands, you reward bad behavior. Reward bad behavior and you get more of it. Look at the global Zionist campaign against Holocaust Deniers. First, hello, free speech. But despite how wrong it is, you have to admire the tactic.

*

The Zionist ( as opposed to Jewish, not one and the same ) disproportionate response is wonderfully effective in muzzling all dissenting voices. One historian that has thirty years of an impeccable research record utters one little thing that you would have to stretch to even imagine it being Denier Friendly, and you spend countless dollars then defaming and destroying him ( I'm thinking of David Irving here, although I might be off on specifics ). Before you know it, everyone is self-censoring and the Reparations Bucks flow in at an even faster rate.

*

So, a terrorist makes a demand. It is a small demand, and there are tons of hostages. Wouldn't their lives be worth such a minor cost? Look at the Chechnya guerrillas and the Russian elementary school kids. Who doesn't like kids? The Chechen guerrillas love kids, but they love THEIR kids more, so the price of blood must be paid. Even the most vile Russian politician or General loves kids ( I don't much care for the curtain climbing nose pickers, myself, but without them Hilary couldn't have climbed to power over countless bodies ).

*

But the Russians stormed the school anyway. It is a question of a few dead kids now, or a metric butt ton later. You choose the lesser evil. And not just a lot of kids later but before you know it, you've got Muzzy terrorists trying to destroy your whole country. You get some dumb ass Politically Correct lesbians in the band Pussy Riot, you arrest their ass on stupid sounding charges. Else, you are soon battling those crazies in every institution in society ( I don't imagine Russia is graduating any PC scientists that design pedestrian walkways to collapse ). A disproportionate response IS always called for, or you go on the defensive.

*

I discuss all this for a very good reason. It is all well and good to have analysts who see nuanced gray areas, as that allows the decision makers better information, BUT! You can't allow analysts into power. Life is much better lived in a black and white world as far as making any and all decisions. Your tribe is correct, no matter what. No discussion. No gray area, only black and white. You don't mistreat your family. Etcetera. Choices are the bane of good decision making. A lot of social and cultural dysfunction today are directly the result of too many choices ( other than binary ).

*

Set policy, and never waver. Never second guess. Do you realize the mass of propaganda set directly against that common sense dictate? The bastards in charge are lawyers at heart, and lawyers profit off of gray areas. They want you to always say, “yeah, but...”, because that is where they screw you. They can always insert an exception if you give them room. It is called getting a foot into the door, or allowing the camel to put his nose under the tent. Once the exception is given, they keep pushing for more. And more. Until they get the exact opposite of what you wanted.

*

No females in the military became a separate branch of the military became a coed force became women in combat roles. We went from no non-White immigrants to Catholic white immigrants to some Oriental immigrants to all non-White immigrants to no controls against immigrants ( as long as they are of alien cultures ). THAT is what happens with Exceptions. With Pliable Standards. Far better a superstitious inflexible tradition bound stubborn policy than a policy “guided by common sense”.

*

This is a skill we need to relearn, that of uncompromising tradition guided decision making. Binary. Yes or no. NEVER “maybe”. No exceptions to “no exceptions”. Never means never. One never surrenders. Your family is held hostage? No surrender. Your enemy has a reputation of fairness? No surrender. When policy is set in stone, it gets followed. Ambiguity is the enemy of policy. If you don't make it so simple a chimp can understand, half your people will screw it up. Inflexibility means a common sense rule always gets followed. The lawyers have you looking at flexibility as a virtue, but it is a vice. It is the conduit of anarchy.

*

Because people follow no rules without fail today, they have a perception of freedom. Yeah, you have the freedom to disown a family member. So you never have any family you can rely on. You have the option is de-friending someone, and so never have any friends. Your job has the freedom to fire you ( “we must remain competitive!” ), and so has no loyal employees. Without responsibility, you have no reward.

*

When you make the rules, such as “you NEVER get rid of your ammunition except bullet first”, and you NEVER break them regardless of the short term gains, in the long run you benefit more. Now, don't get me wrong. Ambiguity and a lack of solid rules are the bread and butter of my writing. I have a never ending amount of subject matter to refute, to turn into hard and fast rules to make life easier for you. Simplifying is what pays the bills. I look at both sides of every issue, because the issues have been simplified. BUT! They weren't simplified by throwing out any rules.

*

What we have to do is study and then re-frame the arguments. Then stick with them. All these complicated issues survivalists have stem from Exceptions To The Rule. Simply, there should NOT be exceptions. THAT is a lot simpler and saves you a lot of brain power. And when seconds count, LACK of exceptions are very important. “Oh, it's a child/woman/geriatric. Should I help them?” I don't know, dumb ass. What do you think? Well, on the one hand....NO! A thousand times NO. Are they your tribe? No? That means you can't help. No matter what. Always.

*

Would the Terminator be so successful if the rules were “he will not stop. Except when...”?
