Without Rule of Law.com
The last few years I have become more and more aware of the fact that "we", the general public, take our comfortable lives for granted. The more we are surrounded by technology, the more we depend on it. It is a bit contradictory because I - for one - am a great "tech-head". At the same time I try to imagine what life would be without all my high-tech gear and modern comfort.
What happens when we have a real pandemic on our hands? A flooding occurs, or something more basic like a power outage that lasts for a week?
Even in a stable country like Holland it is a good idea to prepare for situations like these. In fact, our own Dutch government cautions people to prepare for the unexpected.
Since I always have been interested in survival and anything that comes with it, I started to read more and more about the subject of survival and preparedness. And boy, there is a lot out there. But it's hard to find a good global starting point or general website that combines all the subjects that I have an interest in.
Hence the "Without Rule of Law website: survival in WROL situations" website. Here is a short snippet from the obligatory "About" page that explains more about my reasons and goals behind the website:
If you are lucky enough to live in a democratic country you probably are used to living under relatively comfortable circumstances. You live your life like anyone else. Work, eat, sleep, relax. You have electricity, mobile communications, public transport and stores to shop. You enjoy what is called the privilege of “Rule of Law”: everyday life under protection of your countries law, military and emergency services like the fire department and medical care.
But the world we live in is far from perfect.
Conflict may be right around the corner. It may be the result of a breakdown of society (economical), riots, natural disaster, political conflict or just plain war.
When it happens we have a situation called: “Without Rule of Law”, or WROL for short.
In such an event you will find there is no police to call to help you out. Medical care may be non-existent. Electricity and gas may not be available. The streets may be have become too hazardous for you to venture out.
A WROL situation may last a few hours, days, weeks or months depending on the cause. When hurricane Katrina hit in 2005, the WROL situation lasted for many weeks. Reports of carjacking, murders, thefts, and rapes in New Orleans flooded the news.
If you are realistic you will agree it can happen any moment. And if you are not prepared for it chances are, you will become a sad statistic. A victim of your own survival inadequacy.
But how do you prepare for such a situation? You can search the web and you will find hundreds of websites with information.
The “Without Rule of Law” website will assist you in gathering information to prepare you for the moment you find yourself in a WROL situation by gathering useful survival information for you and putting it on one handy website. No need to surf hundreds of different sources of information.
You will find reviews on various things and instructional information that can help you out when you need to protect yourself, your loved ones and your property.
So if you think you want to know more about how you can prepare for the unexpected, I invite you to go over to the website and see if you can learn a thing or two.
You can also follow WROL on Twitter and YouTube.
