-Caveat Lector- I have recently heard rumors that gas masks are soon to become unavailable here in the U.S. I asked a local "preparedness" store owner about this, and he confirmed that the rumor seems to be true. He said that he may not be able to get any more from his suppliers in the future. Then yesterday, I came across a print advertisement for various Y2K preparedness items (including gas masks) which stated that gas masks have been classified as "implements of war" and are soon to be banned. It didn't say who had done the classifying, or who will do the banning. Does anyone know anything about this? Any suggestions on how to follow up on it? If really true, this sounds like something resulting from some "treaty" that those who rule us have commited us to. It seems strange that the U.S. Government would be behind something this, since the President and various agencies have been warning of the probability of NBC terrorism against this country in the near future. It is a contradiction to for them to be "preparing" to handle potential NBC problems, while at the same time hampering the efforts of its own citizens to prepare themselves. Then again, there are a lot of strange things going on these days courtesy of our federal government. Any info regarding this would be appreciated. Thanks...
