‘Preppers’ Readying For World’s End This Month

Posted by | September 13, 2015 21:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Religion


Some Mormons believe we’re days away from doomsday.

[They] are buying up food-storage kits, flashlights, blankets and tents. Some are even bracing to leave their homes — if need be.

At American Fork’s Thrive Life, which sells mostly freeze-dried food, sales have shot up by “500 percent or more in the past couple of months,” says customer- service representative Ricardo Aranda. “There is a sense of urgency, like something is up. A lot of people are mentioning things about September, like a financial collapse.”

…A lot of customers, he says, believe “this is the month it will all happen — with a ‘blood moon’ and a currency collapse and everything.”

Here’s how the doomsday scenario plays out: History, some preppers believe, is divided into seven-year periods — like the Hebrew notion of “shemitah” or Sabbath. In 2008, seven years after 9/11, the stock market crashed, a harbinger of a devastating recession. It’s been seven years since then, and Wall Street has fluctuated wildly in recent weeks in the wake of China devaluing its currency.

Thus, they believe, starting Sept. 13, the beginning of the Jewish High Holy Days, there will be another, even larger financial crisis, based on the United States’ “wickedness.” That would launch the “days of tribulation” — as described in the Bible.

    It’s that time again already?!

    • Carla Akins September 13th, 2015 at 22:40

      I know! It seems like the last doomsday was just a couple of weeks ago. My how time flys.

  2. bpollen September 13th, 2015 at 21:16

    They’re prepping for doomsday, and I am just hoping that it isn’t cloudy here on the 27th. Seems that every time there is an interesting celestial phenomenon, Minneapolis is cloudy or rainy…

    These retails know their market , start a rumor , just like Jan 1st 2000 , every thing would stop , airplane will fall from the sky , every computer would crash ,

    why can’t these loonies just leave already, let the mormons go to kolab, the xtians get raptured and the rest of the religions do and go wherever it is the believe…the rest of us people will finally have peace and equality.

    • Obewon September 13th, 2015 at 21:44

      These loons sure are afraid of meeting their maker, their judgement day, and promises of a faux news paradise realm. Anybody keeping score knows what a debunked grifter ruse they’ve been victimized by e.g. Glenn Beck’s ‘hermetically sealed seeds’ won’t ever grow.

    • William September 13th, 2015 at 21:54

      I dunno about that, but when the zombie apocalypse occurs, I am headed straight to the graveyard for the best game of whack-a-mole ever.

      • whatthe46 September 13th, 2015 at 22:15

        if you could have seen my face after reading that. oh goodness, i have this grin that’s going to be stuck on my face for forever.

    • lynchie September 14th, 2015 at 10:40

      Take Kim Davis first, like a test run

    Yet not one of these far-right paranoids portended GWB’s 12/07 Great Recession record low everything since (R) Hoover’s Great Depression. Reversed and recovered by POTUS Obama.

  7. William September 13th, 2015 at 21:52

    Based upon what I observe as of late, society as we know it has already collapsed

    • amersham46 September 13th, 2015 at 21:59

      this means you need to take a friend with you

      • whatthe46 September 13th, 2015 at 22:13

        that’s hilarious too.

        • Dwendt44 September 13th, 2015 at 23:34

          Or take off a shoe.

          • Tommie September 13th, 2015 at 23:41

            Or use two hands and count the teeth in your mouth!

    • whatthe46 September 13th, 2015 at 22:13

      that’s hilarious!

    • Mike September 13th, 2015 at 23:38

      And you’re just now learning that…??? Kinda surprised one’s not a foot.

      • whatthe46 September 13th, 2015 at 23:43

        can you imagine one in line reading the picture (not the words) and saying but i only have 2 hands, what are they trying to tell me? LOL

      • Buford2k11 September 14th, 2015 at 07:18

        I suppose that 21 could be a little too far? There is only ONE more appendage that can be counted…

        • NIGHTWATCH ABCP ........ September 14th, 2015 at 12:31

          Paging “Mr JOHNSON, is Mr JOHNSON around here somewhere” ??

    • Tommie September 13th, 2015 at 23:39

      They must get some real winners in that store, man that is laugh out loud funny!

    • rg9rts September 14th, 2015 at 04:05

      I hate to guess how they show 16

      • Dwendt44 September 14th, 2015 at 11:52

        The ‘express’ lines at the local Wal-mart are 20 items or less. They are frequently the busiest lanes.

  8. Foundryman September 13th, 2015 at 22:04

    I have a feeling somewhere there could be another mass suicide in the works, religious fanatics are funny that way. We seen it happen before, with Jonestown, we seen it with the Hale-Bott comet, one can easily say Branch Davidians at Waco killed themselves, suicide by cop maybe.
    The doomsday preppers have been prepping for armageddon for a long time, it’s bound to come sooner or later, one way or another.

    • whatthe46 September 13th, 2015 at 22:19

      you are so right about that.

      • Dwendt44 September 13th, 2015 at 23:33

        As long as they only take themselves out, and not a large group of innocences.

    • Mike September 13th, 2015 at 23:37

      Please can it be Fuckabee…???

    • fahvel September 14th, 2015 at 04:11

      could solve many problems and possibly leave things in the hands of people who have evolved -rather than those few idiots who have been created.

    • lynchie September 14th, 2015 at 10:38

      The reality show on preppers will do 24 hour marathons so we can study the different ways to prepare for the world to see how stupid we are.

  9. robert September 13th, 2015 at 22:20

    Ask any republican Its death or glory ( its all the same )

    Thank goodness they told me now. I would have been seriously pissed if I had cleaned out the garage first.

  11. Mike September 13th, 2015 at 23:36

    Mormons…gotta love em for the comedy factor alone.
    Smith stinking his head in a hat to read the seer stones.
    The planet Kolob
    Jebus comes to America
    Ya can’t make this stuff up…

    • Foundryman September 13th, 2015 at 23:49

      Yeah….Yes you can make that stuff up…they proved that!!

      • Mike September 14th, 2015 at 00:51

        I stand corrected…:)

    • CandideThirtythree September 14th, 2015 at 04:56

      A convicted conman, convicted of using seer stone to con people out of their money gets caught sleeping with his neighbor’s wife. He whips out the scrying stone and grabs his hat and pretends to see a message from god saying that god told him that the woman was his wife and he had the right to sleep with her.

      Then he convinces the cuckold that he too can have sex with all his neighbor’s wives if he goes along with it. So they start a religion and start swapping wives.

      I can see how he could get the men to go along with it but the women…what were they thinking?

      • allison1050 September 14th, 2015 at 07:09

        lol but to answer your question, nothing much.

      • Mike September 14th, 2015 at 09:57

        There’s a whole group of people out there that want to be conned.

      • Dwendt44 September 14th, 2015 at 11:50

        In smith’s case, he wanted the 14 year old daughter of his neighbor. Think he got her too.
        Mark Twain said; ‘Religion started when the first conman met the first fool’.

    Nooooooooooooooo, football just got started!

    They can join the Jade Helm prepers

    • NIGHTWATCH ABCP ........ September 14th, 2015 at 12:28

      F Y I: JADE HELM 15 is ending tomorrow (15 SEP 2015). Has Texas been SUBDUED yet ?????

      • rg9rts September 14th, 2015 at 13:59

        Gohmert is threatening not to run…does that count?

        • NIGHTWATCH ABCP ........ September 14th, 2015 at 15:25

          It would BEHOOVE the WHOLE nation if Gohmert, the OTHER Congressmen/women AND the WHOLE Senate delegation FROM Texas would ABSTAIN from running …………

  15. CandideThirtythree September 14th, 2015 at 06:02

    The first recorded instance of a ‘doomsday’ was almost 8,000 years ago and since then there have been thousands of doomsday predictions. That old saying about a fool born every minute was underestimated.

  16. eaglesfanintn September 14th, 2015 at 11:14

    Dear Preppers,
    Please send me all that money you think will be worthless. PM me and I’ll give you my address.
    Thanks!

  17. Darksnark September 14th, 2015 at 18:10

    With any luck, these “Preppers” will stage a re-enactment of Jonestown in anticipation of the world ending, and the rest of us will have fewer armed nutcases to be concerned about….

    • CHOCOL8MILK September 14th, 2015 at 18:33

      The human gene pool will be saved.

  18. cwazycajun September 15th, 2015 at 10:43
