They Will Try to Stop You

When preparing for the ZA, be aware that people don't want you to be prepared.  They want you to wander along like the rest of them: sheep to slaughter.  You are going to have to not only buck the sheeple trend, but you are going to have to get inventive, and perhaps a bit shifty.

We have run across people who don't aspire to survive, think the GOONS will take care of them, are lazy, are uncomfortable with anything that does not conform to what they think are societal norms, think whatever purchased at the grocery store is wholesome and good for them, that medications will always solve the problem, and that the TSA is performing a valuable service.  We're learning how to side step just about all the above and slither away from others.

Something we were told and take partially to heart is the concept of not telling anyone what you are doing.  We're telling some people some of what we have planned and some of what we intend to do.  We don't tell anyone everything (except each other, that way we get more done) and are doing much on our own.  Part of being really prepared is to do exactly what the GOONS are doing, which is showing you one (shiny) thing to distract you from another (the thing that is really going on).  If the GOONS can do it, so can we, and so can you.

Good luck!
