Just because you move to a rural environment doesn’t mean you’re automatically safe and secure from the dangers that we prepare for.
I wanted to discuss this topic for a number of reasons. First, it demonstrates a real world scenario that’s occurring right now to people in rural environments regarding safety and security. By analyzing their solutions to the problem, we can begin planning for something similar now before the time comes where it’s necessary. It also shows us that the concepts and ideas being pushed out by some of these groups can eventually lead to this type of behavior. And this is not a localized event. These ideas are being spread globally. So regardless of where you live, don’t take your rural lifestyle for granted in the sense of security. The days of leaving your front door unlocked should be long gone in your mind.

Independent Journalism Is Dying
Ever since President Trump’s miraculous victory, we’ve heard an incessant drumbeat about how legacy media is dying. This is true. The people have awakened to the reality that they’re being lied to by the self-proclaimed “Arbiters of Truth” for the sake of political expediency, corporate self-protection, and globalist ambitions.
But even as independent journalism rises to fill the void left by legacy media, there is still a huge challenge. Those at the top of independent media like Joe Rogan, Dan Bongino, and Tucker Carlson are thriving and rightly so. They have earned their audience and the financial rewards that come from it. They’ve taken risks and worked hard to get to where they are.
For “the rest of us,” legacy media and their proxies are making it exceptionally difficult to survive, let alone thrive. They still have a stranglehold over the “fact checkers” who have a dramatic impact on readership and viewership. YouTube, Facebook, and Google still stifle us. The freer speech platforms like Rumble and 𝕏 can only reward so many of their popular content creators. For independent journalists on the outside looking in, our only recourse is to rely on affiliates and sponsors.
But even as it seems nearly impossible to make a living, there are blessings that should not be disregarded. By highlighting strong sponsors who share our America First worldview, we have been able to make lifelong connections and even a bit of revenue to help us along. This is why we enjoy symbiotic relationships with companies like MyPillow, Jase Medical, and Promised Grounds. We help them with our recommendations and they reward us with money when our audience buys from them.
The same can be said about our preparedness sponsor, Prepper All-Naturals. Their long-term storage beef has a 25-year shelf life and is made with one ingredient: All-American Beef.
Even our faith-driven precious metals sponsor helps us tremendously while also helping Americans protect their life’s savings. We are blessed to work with them.
Independent media is the future. In many ways, that future is already here. While the phrase, “the more the merrier,” does not apply to this business because there are still some bad actors in the independent media field, there are many great ones that do not get nearly enough attention. We hope to change that one content creator at a time.
Thank you and God Bless,

HA! Not even worth discussing. By living rurally, you’ve already lowered your risks by as much as you possibly can in this world. I totally dismiss your premise and so far the US is NOT South Africa nor will it be any time soon. You have to understand the motivation of the joggers in todays society. An urban area is a target rich environment. A rural society is NOT. A rural area, especially in the midwest is where ALL of your neighbors are suspicious of anybody that doesn’t belong there. And yeah, that’s all we have in our county of 900 square miles is the sheriffs department and they basically don’t have anything to do. So when there is an incident, no matter how minor, they come out in a rush like they were responding to a murder, every single time. Living rurally, reduces your exposure to ALL types of crime by a very large degree.
What you say is all very true but have you seen the movie or read the book “In Cold Blood” ? It never behooves one to become complacent.
In rural areas of Upstate NY it can take 45 minutes for the Troopers to arrive and even longer for them to get the backup they need. One must be able to defend themselves until help arrives. Living away from cities no doubt lowers you chance of being a victim but you must always be aware and prepared.

Exactly how much advice do you think I’m going to take from a guy who’s shooting range has a backstop that only reaches to the bottom of his targets?
Cities came into EXISTENCE in part for mutual protection from roving criminals for whom it is easier to target isolated people in the country-side.
More assaults and theft in the town, but harder to get away with extreme violence. Families in the countryside can all be looted and killed and no one would know for days or weeks … reduced chance of capture or retribution, safer targets. Easy to get together a handful of people to take out a family farm or retreat.
Strange how modern people have inverted this and see rural as safe. Especially given ease of modern transport.
