So where is the best place to hide in case of a nuclear attack? Hint: it's not in a refrigerator.
In 2010 the EPA released a paper, Planning guidance for response to a nuclear detonation" which includes a lot of useful info for anybody wanting to prepare for nuclear attacks. One particular part stands out though, which is the following info-graphic demonstrating the (relatively) safest places to be during a nuclear detonation:
Some are no-brainers, like the deepest basement in a multi-story building. But others are less intuitive. Of particular interest to me is the fact that you face less exposure on the 3rd or 4th floor of a high-rise than you do on the ground floor. I assumed that the more material above you the, the better. But I suppose all the fallout eventually lands on the ground at the base of the buildings, so being up a couple floors could be substantially better at shielding you from latent radiation. There may be other factors at play as well, but regardless, it is important information to consider when formulating shelter or bug-out plans. Also remember that concrete is better than wood, and in general the more distance between you and the fallout the better.

Other things to consider for Nuclear fallout prepping:
- Potassium iodide pills
- gas mask with filters
- plastic sheeting and duct tape
- air filters
- hazmat suit and overboots
- Geiger counter or other radiation detectors

Land of the free......Veteran arrested for asking police officer for ID
THE SITUATION:
On November 19th, 2013 I was illegally arrested by Gainesville Police officer Benjamin Blake.
There is a video on my channel of the raw, unedited video footage I took on the scene (until Officer Blake purposefully shut off the camera.): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8P_92OdTeRk
There is also a video on my YouTube channel explaining the situation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yYFO5mLeA7g
There is also a post here of the audio transcript of the video: http://rule-the-wasteland.blogspot.com/2014/01/arrest-video-audio-transcript.html
The charges fabricated for the arrest (resisting an officer without violence) were dropped almost immediately, because they were obviously completely bogus, as I did nothing illegal. But I was still subjected to many criminal actions: physical touching and restraint against my will, illegal searches, damage to my personal property, physical, psychological and emotional distress, having my reputation and future job prospects affected by having mug shots on the internet, and being physically detained against my will for over 16 hours.
Incidentally, I was also subjected to the worst breakfast I have had on this planet (And that's coming from somebody who has eaten egg and cheese MREs).
WHAT YOU CAN DO:
I have already filed a complaint against Officer Benjamin Blake and Corporal Henry, But since the police themselves are the arbiters of the complaint I don't hold out much hope for any positive result. I would appreciate it if anyone reading this could call or write to Gainesville Police Chief Tony Jones and calmly and politely mention that it is unacceptable to have officers violating the constitutional rights of citizens (veterans, no less) because of a lack of knowledge of the law, or worse, purposeful disregard for it. Please specifically mention Officer Benjamin Blake and Officer Henry and ask that they receive disciplinary action.
At the very least please post your displeasure to their Facebook page (specifically mentioning officer Benjamin Blake and Officer Henry)
If even half of my 13,000 YouTube subscribers voice their displeasure though as many of these outlets as possible, they may realize that Americans really do care about freedom and personal liberty.

Let's show them that we will not be good little slaves and stand idly by while our natural rights as free people are trampled by bullies with a government issued monopoly on violence.
Please understand, this is not for revenge or spite on my part. It is very simply because the police will never stop abusing their authority until they start receiving some kind of negative consequences when they do. Cops should not be above the law. Nobody should be.
Even though my charges have been dropped, I have not been made whole. I have been subjected to numerous physical, emotional, and monetary damages as a result of these officers' illegal actions, and I very strongly want to pursue a law suit against the department and/or the individual officers, but have very little knowledge of the process, and no money to spend on it.
