Today’s guest is Cindy Thompson. Cindy and her husband Jim are the organizers of the “Life Changes, Be Ready” Preparedness and Gun Expo that is being held in Lakeland, FL this November 2nd and 3rd. Cindy tells us who some of the guests will be at this expo. The speakers list is a “who’s who” list in the preparedness community and includes SouthernPrepper1 aka David Kobler, James Wesley Rawles, Dr bones and Nurse Amy, Senior Fellow for Constitutional Studies Michael Farris, author of “Lights Out” David Crawford, Marjory Wildcraft, and the list goes on and on!

Cindy and I talk about the potential causes for an economic collapse in today’s show also. We look at the behavior of the government  in their ammunition stockpiling efforts and large purchases of armored vehicles for domestic agencies and question what they are preparing for.

Cindy gives us her insight on taking care of ourselves in the face of  continued downward spiral. As municipalities face bankruptcies like we saw in Detroit, 911 response time continues to grow longer. Detroit’s response time for high priority calls is 58 minutes. Cindy explains the need to be able to defend yourself in a violent break in scenario. She explains that purchasing a firearm is not enough. Cindy stresses the need to train with your weapon. Cindy and Jim Thompson also offer advanced firearm training through Fortress Tactical Defense  If you are in the Florida area, check them out to learn to be more effective with your home defense weapon.
