Marauding Doofus

Watching the episode called We Are the Marauders. This clown will be among the first casualties in any kind of disaster. Homemade body armor that he thinks will protect him against anything, and his belief that because he says he'll just take other peoples' guns, food and ammo, that it'll happen that way? Yeah, right, I'm gonna make the sun rise in the west, too. See how easy that was?

If I lived in that area and a disaster occurred, I'd probably preemptively take him out. But if not and he showed up with his silly-ass armor, I'd like to see how he deals with several rounds of 5.56 going through his neck, face, and pancreas at 3300 ft. per second, since none of those areas are protected by his body armor.

The really funny part was him talking about how our soldiers carry 80 to 100 pounds, so he can learn to do it. Yeah, one thing, genius, our soldiers aren't carrying an extra 250 pounds of body fat on their asses to start with! You might consider that your heart's only as big as your fist, just like our soldiers. You wouldn't last an hour trying to keep up with any of our soldiers.

Yeah, the only people they pose a real danger to are themselves. If he's the leader, I can only imagine what the rest of their group is like. I think NatGeo actually hurt the show by having this guy on there.

I really think they did hurt the show. I watch it in spite of people who turn out to be OCD (though not all of them) because it gives a lot of good pointers for how to prepare in case of a disaster.

I remember when Hurricane Sandy hit, there was a news reporter who talked about a family who had a 3-year-old kid and they had no food or water - get this - the day after Sandy hit us. We knew Sandy was coming, what, 4, 5 days in advance, and they didn't even have one day's worth of food or water set aside? How stupid was that? And it wasn't because they're stores were destroyed, either, it was the simple fact that they didn't prepare. I had plenty of water and food for a couple of weeks of holding out. Not prepping is just plain foolish.

This episode, however, really turned me off. I won't stop prepping because of it, but seeing the marauder clown is going to make the other preppers who are simply OCD a little harder to take, and I really doubt I'm going to watch the show any more. I think I'll turn to some survival books I've accumulated and referencing prepper web sites.

One thing that this episode did teach me, though, the next time I go to the rifle range, I'm going to practice scrotum shots. We'll see how much marauding someone does singing like Kathleen Battle.

That episode reminded me of a lot of the posters here.
The ones whose "plan" was, "LOL, preppers are so dumb I'll just shot them in the face and take their stuff, LOL."

I just can't believe that dude went on National Television with his plan to become a looter. I really want to see the reaction from his neighbors and local police.

Good find. Apparently he's a 'level one sex offender' too. What is that? I'm not from the US.

It varies from state to state. But level one usually means he is considered a low risk and is NOT on a publicly available list. Unless you go on TV an announce your plan to become Lord Humongous

This show has nothing to do with being able to reasonably withstand a disaster; no, this show is about laughing at morons. Watching this show ironically is highly amusing, don't bother trying to learn anything from these clowns.

Now if i lived near him or any of his dufus buddies, i'd just take them out as soon as the s hit the fan. Why wait?

[–] nakedsteve 10 years ago

Because you might get charged with murder when order is restored. I wouldn't worry about this dolt too much, within an hour of the fit hitting the shan he and his crew will be in "protective custody".

When The SHTF, order is out the window. They would have to prosecute hundreds if not thousands of people. They couldn't even prosecute the small numbers involved in the 1992 Rodney King Riots or the looters during Katrina. Really not worried about any backlash.

There were prosecutions, there were convictions.

For the few things that were caught on camera. The type of shtf scenario I'm thinking of means no cameras, no electricity, no stores open etc for the foreseeable future. Not just 2 or 3 weeks after a hurricane (or earthquake in my area). I'm talking a nationwide (maybe worldwide) pandemic. A true SHTF scenario. More likely TEOTWAWKI.

I suspect the death of this particular turd will receive a more then casual investigation.

Society can break down easily in a pandemic. Sandy/Katrina/Northridge quake etc were bad. However nowhere near what I'm talking about. Pull your head out of your ass and imagine a nationwide breakdown. We're talking bodies all over the place and nowhere to even begin in finding out whats going on. You think the local Sheriff will be by to collect DNA. You must be kidding me. If order is ever restored it would take years. By then no evidence to prosecute. a broken structure that couldn't handle it anyway.

This guy is all kinds of stupid. #1, a lot of the people they have on this show are well armed and well trained and will take him and his cast of clowns out in short order. Worse yet, he thinks he's going to perform a C-section on his wife with zero issues. I don't care how many books you've read you can't perform a major surgery like this without proper training. He's going to kill both his wife and child. He is an idiot of the highest degree. He just showed the world his own Darwin Award nomination.

He also tried out amateur MMA (seriously...) and got his ass kicked by every opponent including a 46 year old who made his MMA debut and knocked him out in 9 seconds: http://www.nwfightscene.com/EQC-FreedomFighters/03-Webber-Smith_DSC791 9.jpg

i don't think people are going to have much to fear from fat boy. he's so damn slow and fat that he's a huge target. also, his body armor barely covers any of his fat slob body. his sides are almost as wide as his front end and fat ass. the guy is a joke. in fact, i'm sure the show somewhat scripted that episode just to raise some controversy. nobody can be that dumb.
