Not too long ago, we pulled the Survival Pulse website offline in an attempt to combat the censorship on the net in a way we felt would work. Instead, we replaced the website with a newsletter. Emailing you directly meant we could have access to you no matter what happened: Facebook algorithm changes, Twitter burying our posts, even disappearing from Google and Yahoo! search results (if it ever ...
The Act of Killing: Not So Easy; Is It Something You Can Live With?
This is going to be a different kind of article. No gear or techniques to aid in survival, but nonetheless - it's a topic I want to discuss because it relates to something that is often brought up, though rarely do we discuss its consequences.
