Week or 2 after that there will be violence on the streets.
Did this happen anywhere else? China? Italy? If not, what is the basis of your prediction?
Gold & silver... sold out
Usually when the stock market is down, precious metals rise in value. Have you looked at the charts? Except for yesterday the price of gold has fallen over the past two weeks because people are selling, trying to get cash. If they’re selling at a loss, gold is available to buy. Go to Kitco. Go to eBay, type in “gold bullion” there’s 22,000+ listings. That doesn’t include gold coins.
That Hawaii News story was from 2018.
Yes, but it occurred in real life, not in fantasyland. It's a good lesson in what works and what doesn't work. Do weapons protect home owners? Occasionally. But what also works, and without all the hubbub, are alarm systems, linked video monitors, good solid doors and windows. But you rarely hear people talk about those precautions which are far more successful. Because the crooks just moved on to the next house.
Example. What if the home owners in the Puna news story had 8 guns instead of 10, and spent the extra money on an alarm system which would wake them up, and give them enough time to get to the gun safe before the burglars? The alarm may also scare off the thieves before anything else happened. Install a gate on your driveway, that likely will deter 95% of Puna thieves, who in their mug shots don't look like they work out at the gym in their down time.
In football, a good game plan can get your team slowly, methodical down the field for a touchdown. But when the quarterback throws a 60 yard Hail Mary pass with 5 seconds left on the clock? In total desperation? That's what fans talk about.
