URGENT: TALK OF "RATIONING" -- GAS STATIONS REPORTING OUT-OF-GAS ALREADY! Next Comes RATIONING, and that brings . . . SLAVERY

https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/en/news-page/news-nation/urgent-talk-of-rationing-gas-stations-reporting-out-of-gas-already-next-comes-rationing-and-that-brings-slavery


Reports have started coming in that gas stations are already running out of gasoline, just three days into the cyber-attack shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline. Those stations that still have gasoline are reportedly raising prices "significantly."

The Hal Turner Radio Show received reports from a gas station owner in Shallotte, NC, which is on the east coast, between Wilmington and the South Carolina state line, they had run out of regular unleaded and only have premium and diesel. This same station owner told us "prices will begin climbing and reach $5/gallon quickly." The source also says that "all of the stations in town are out of gas except the giants like BP and Shell."

Similarly along the east coast, reports are coming in from Georgia, with one source saying he could not get gasoline in Perry, GA, the central part of the state, and another source saying he could not get gasoline in Douglas, in the southern part of that state. Other sources are saying they cannot get fuel in northeast Georgia in Clarksville, Cleveland or Cornelia, GA which are all northeast of Atlanta.

Elsewhere, reports are now also coming in from a town about 50 miles south of Nashville, TN saying the local gas stations are out of mid-grade and out of premium, and only have regular.

Late this afternoon, more reports from Pike, PA.



RATIONING: First Fuel, then food.

The shutdown of the Colonial Pipeline, which runs from Houston, TX to Linden, NJ, allegedly from a cyber-attack with Ransomware, is wearing thin very fast. People "in the know" are now openly wondering if this is legitimate, or if the shutdown is being used as a tool; either to raise prices, or help usher-in more government control through RATIONING, with the end goal being full-blown Communism?

My son in in Information Technology (IT) and he told me:

"IF THIS CYBER ATTACK IS TRUE, any hardware that has been damaged by the ransomware, like pipeline valves, can be replaced AND most computer servers are Virtual Machines (VM) these days.

A VM several Terabytes in size can be completely restored in hours.

EVEN IF a critical system is "ransomed" the software can easily be reloaded and relicensed in a few hours.

The configs for the Software are, 9 times out of 10 are kept in a database, and App Servers have their configs stored internally which can be EASILY copied onto a new one or the entire app server restored in minutes.

All large companies have a disaster recovery (DR) site and one this size (Colonial Pipeline) may have 4 to 5 DR sites that they bring online if an event like this happens. So I call 100% total BULLSHIT on this entire thing."

Based on my son's experience in IT, it appears that critical infrastructure of this size simply cannot be taken offline for days, never mind longer than that. In fact, just this afternoon, Colonial Pipeline issued an update saying "we hope to have our system substantially restored by the end of this week."

A whole week? Something else seems to be in-play here.

With gas stations already beginning to report actual outages of fuel, it won't be long until this becomes a major, genuine, crisis. Remember, everything in this entire country - except electricity and natural gas - MUST, at some point, move by truck. If there's no fuel for the trucks, NOTHING moves . . . including food to supermarkets!

Years ago, the American Trucking Association created an infographic about what would happen to our nation if trucks shut down. It is a bone chilling look at what it would mean . . . and fast:



As of today, Monday, May 10, we are now THREE full days into the pipeline shutdown, but truck fuel is still available. That will not last long.

If this pipeline is not restored within another day or two, then the things shown on the Trucking chart above, will actually begin to materialize and then we're in BIG trouble.

Readers are encouraged to fill up some five gallon gasoline cans to have emergency fuel available before it runs out.

In the event this goes longer term, which we all hope is not likely, they could have to ration and prioritize who gets gasoline first.

Rationing, is the final straw which breaks freedom. If they ration fuel, we can't travel. If they ration food because trucks have no fuel and supermarkets are empty, we turn directly into a slave state. Do what THEY say or starve.

The general public has to watch this situation very carefully because RATIONING in the red flag. First gas is cut off, food supply is next folks.

If they start announcing rationing, you'd better spend every last cent you have on food to stock up. It will mean they are aggressively intending to bring-in government control over everything and that, ladies and gentlemen, is Communism.

Hopefully they are smart enough to keep the food supply chain going, but get ready for empty store shelves for non essential goods!

While Colonial Pipeline ""claims"" they are working hard to undo the damage caused by a cyber attack with computer ransomware, it may take awhile to get their pipeline and it's complex pumping systems, back online.

All these function USED TO BE performed by people. But computers could get the job done just as well, and maybe even better in some cases, so people were taken out of the loop. Many either retired or died, and the knowledge of how to do those tasks manually . . . died with them. The knowledge was not passed down.

The computer brainiacs of today, have no idea at all how to operate the valves and diverter units at pumping stations, how to purge one product in advance of another being pumped, how to regulate pipe pressure, purge air pockets; which valves to turn which way, at what time, to handle what fuel, how much fuel to put in what tank to allow for temperature expansion so the storage tanks don't burst . . . and now we're all stuck because of it.

Tomorrow, Tuesday, is a big day. After Tuesday if the pipeline issue hasn’t been fixed, THEN expect the pump prices to go insane. There’s no way to know right now.

Stay tuned . . .

UPDATE 10:38 PM EDT --

Governor Roy Cooper on Monday signed an Executive Order declaring a state of emergency in North Carolina.
North Carolina declares state of emergency as gas stations run out of fuel in Virginia, Atlanta, GA, and Florida after cyberattack on Colonial Pipeline

Famous Montana Ranch Under Contract For $136 Million

The Climbing Arrow Ranch, featured in the 1992 Robert Redford movie “A River Runs Through It,” sold for its asking price following a bidding war, according to reporting by the Wall Street Journal. The listing agent, Mike Swan of Swan Land Company, confirmed the property was under contract.https://cdn.farmjournal.com/s3fs-public/inline-images/w-ca-cattle_drive-nashan-29-ed.jpg


"Since our public release of the listing of the Climbing Arrow Ranch, we have received an extraordinary response from the market, with multiple parties stepping forth immediately," Swan said in a statement. "We can confirm that the sellers have engaged with a prospective buyer who is currently conducting their inspections of the ranch."


The sale of Climbing Arrow Ranch, located on the north end of the Bridger Mountain Range in southwest Montana and believed one of the largest private undeveloped ranches in the West, will be one of the most expensive ever sold in the U.S. The ranch is about 30 miles from Bozeman, MT.


Swan said the ranch was sold by the Anderson family, who have owned the ranch since 1959. Buck Anderson, grandson of Bank of California president Frank B. Anderson, made the original purchase.


The ranch is comprised of five separate, noncontiguous parcels that span four counties. Total acreage is 79,582 acres, of which about 73,180 are deeded. There are seven modest ranch homes on the ranch, most of which are for staff.https://cdn.farmjournal.com/s3fs-public/inline-images/w-ca-branding-nashan-37-ed.jpg

Could it be the feds? Is Bill Gates buying up farmland to sell to the feds for the 30 x 30 plan?

That's what I'm wondering too. They can print all the money they want out of thin air and take the land away from people that want to grow food for the people of this nation.

[Shami-Amourae]

For those of you who don't get it, here's what Globohomo is plotting:



They are going to make gas ridiculously expensive, to force people towards electric cars.
Gas stations will be phased out for electric charging stations.
Once that phase is done, then OH NO Lithium deposits are depleting, now only rich people can afford electric cars.
All the normal plebs (who didn't die from the vaccination program) will from there be forced to live in the new smart cities and rely on public transportation.

"I'm wondering who is the buyer for this ranch."

Possession and ownership are separate issues. The two can be separated but the highest form of title are when the two are held by one man.

As to the owner I can tell you without doubt that the United States government is it. They own 100% of the property "within this state". How do I know this property is "within this state"? Because it was likely 'paid for' with FRNs without one dollar and OVC. Nothing not "within this state" is paid for with FRNs. These things not within the socialist plane ( a polite word for communist) are paid at least partially with specie. People who pay in specie do so with the hope that the ones they buy from have the capacity to transfer. So the payment in specie is an expression of desire rather than a hard and proven fact. The only facts are the payment in specie and the amount paid and not WHAT was bought. Conversion of property from the Communist plane to a plane where ownership is possible is the topic of all current conflicts on the face of Earth.

Now as to possession the one thing a man can possess is his own body. If you don't possess yourself then you lack capacity to possess anything else. The birth certificate is title to you and you don't possess the original. The title holder to you is most likely the Chinese. The U.S. appears to have monetarized theses years back in exchange for cheap Chinese knockoffs.

You want to pay in specie because it shows your claim to ownership in yourself. Your payment represents NOTICE of your claim to you. NOTICE is the start of due process. By NOTICE you give the rest of the world DUE PROCESS and the opportunity to INQUIRE to see if you know what the heck you are doing.

Welcome to the Battlefield of 2021!

One starts to believe that everything is engineered. Nothing is organic as far as shortages, diseases, social movements, etc. Every shortage is either planned or if there is actually an unforseen event, it is hijacked and used as an excuse for profiteering by the oligarchs.

[ziero0]

"One starts to believe that everything is engineered"

They're fixated on the economy. Remember Reagan? It is the economy stupid?

Economy is the science of managing shortages. Anything that is the topic of economy is now, has been or will be A SHORTAGE.

[ziero0]

As an addendum you don't need to pay in specie all the time. Notice to agent is notice to principal. To prove ownership in a road you need to block the road one day out of the year. To prove ownership in you find anyone willing to perform a service for you in exchange for one dollar specie a couple times a year. Get a receipt. Record it. Now when an action that requires court action present your receipt. It shows you gave DUE PROCESS to whoever (or whatever) is coming at you.

When you put a worm on a hook you will find it wriggles excessively. Courts are this way too.

How hard can this be?

Agree 100%! Everything has been gamed out, planned in advance. These people have so much control and power that they can create any event or narrative needed to advance their agenda.

[hoarder]

The USFS suppressed the timber industry here for decades and just before Trumpstein relaxed USFS timber sales, all the little independently owned mills that had been barely getting by for a long time were bought out by huge conglomerates. Now those same mills are working balls to the wall with gigantic piles of timber stacked in their yards and lumber prices are thru the roof.

I talked to the local supplier of surplus shipping containers the other day about buying one to store stuff on my place. Not only are prices up more than 40%, they can't get near enough to meet demand. I asked market questions and they said they couldn't connect it to supply or demand. They said there are lots of ships anchored with full loads of empties, but they won't unload them at the docks.

Yeah, I'd say it's gamed out.

Imagine what it will be like when the real crash hits.

Hope you people have been buying that UNTRACABLE CURRENCY (http://gold-silver.us/forum/showthread.php?103675-XMR-Monero-General).
The media is too afraid to admit WHAT it was. Any time the media says "Untraceable Currency", it's code word for Monero.

Buy NOW before the public finally catches on.

I bet the ransom was paid to a democrat with political connections.
