If your survival kit doesn't contain a pair of pliers, you won't survive shit. What you also need is a reliable rifle and 10,000 rounds of ammunition, a good hand gun and 10,000 rounds for the handgun. A wheelbarrow to tote your ammunition. A mountain bicycle for cross terrain travel. A good knive that will not break no matter how you abuse it. A club for killing baby seals, because nobody wants a baby seal to suffer. "Baby seal" is a code term. Good, strudy hiking boots made of genuine, 100 %, quality, real, not fake, full grain leather. Binoculars. A compass. A tent -- canvas, not one of those faggy mountain-climber tents made out of woman's pantie material. A good dog that weighs at least 100 pounds. Any dog under 50 pounds is not a dog, it is dog food. A hat and sunglasses, because even at the end of the world, we want to look cool. What you do not need is food. You are going to steal your food from other less well-armed survivalists. If necessary, you will eat the survivalists. You do not need a woman -- you are going to steal your women. If necessary, your rifle can be your best friend in the loneliness of apocalyptic desolation. Matches. A pot to cook in and another pot to piss in -- do not get those pots confused! Scissors to cut your own hair. A still to brew your own alcohol from berries and twigs. A bar of soap. Use it sparingly. It may have to last you for years. One book, the Holy Bible, King James edition 1611 -- accept no substitutes! Not get out there into the wilderness, pilgrim of the new America, and bleed! Bleed for your country, and make the other guy bleed for his.
