FBI Says thinks preppers might be terrorists

I have MRE's, flashlights, and numerous other things from Surplus stores for hunting and SHTF stuff. I payed for these things mostly with cash, and I didn't tell the cashier my full name, DOB, and what I'm doing with the items. According to the FBI's new standards, that makes be a possible terrorist.

not going to state my opinion because the when the FBI reads it they'll think IM the terrorist.

What's funny is FEMA has been telling people for YEARS now to stock up 3-day minimum survival kits, which include (according to their list), flashlights, canned goods, MRE's or similar, knives, medkits, etc.

So stock up for three days, not three years?

You might still get SWAT knockin on the door. Better play it safe and......

Meh. Looks like data point fishing to me.

They're not going to bust in your door for being spotted as a shifty eyed guy who is new in town and paying in cash for a bunch of high lighted stuff from a surplus store. You're not going to have a problem and no one is going to thick twice about you.

Now, if you happen to be a new shifty eyed guy in town who was spotted buying highlighted goods from a surplus store with cash who happens to have also been noted for buying a large amount of chemicals without an obvious use for them, an uncle with connections to known radical groups, and your face comes up in a photo of a known terrorist,... Well then you are going to have men in suits pouring all over your history and begging judges for warrants.

Moral of the story? Don't buy a large truck, barrels of diesel fuel, and large amounts of fertilizer in the same month you stock up for the zombie apocalypse, tour that explosives factory that reports missing stock, and post on your blog that you hate everyone at your office.

Bad things will happen.

This isnt new news. in 2009 Missouri released a 'how to identify a terrorist' poster that for the life of me I cannot find it anymore, but it stated that if they were a white male, owned a rifle, supported state militias, supported a third party candidate and supported border closers/restrictions and background checks for Presidential candidates that they might very well be terrorists and should be reported to the local police for observation.

That link didnt work but yeah, when I clicked on the broken image icon it took me to it.

I have a bug out bag, with a chest rig with 80 rounds of 7.62x39 for my SKS, a canteen, tool kits and extra ammo, cleaning supplies, two bottles of water and some food bars. I am a terrorist, booga booga booga.
