Huckabee backer Jim Bakker: "America descending into cannibalism, buy my survival food!"

The disgraced televangelist, convicted felon, accused rapist and conservative activist offers another amazing deal from his ministry infomercial scam operation.



Televangelist Jim Bakker, who has already come up with some rather clever ways to promote his ministry’s prepper food, today offered viewers a new reason to purchase his food supplies: cannibalism.

While speaking with fellow End Times preacher Rick Wiles about the potential return of an Ice Age, Bakker urged viewers to stock up on food before it becomes scarce and America descends into violence.

“New York, Chicago, all of your big cities, will be Hell,” Bakker said. “The gangs will take what they want. They will kill to take what they want. Then then they will start eating bodies of the people they kill.”

Grifters gotta grift.



Maybe the next time the Huckster drops by to pal around with Bakker, the two of them can offer a package deal and combine the doomsday food with Huck's miracle diabeetus cure.

I'm tired of the false advertising. Found out years ago Girl Scout cookies don't contain any girl scouts at all.

future scenarios. It is about time some of them started being a tiny tad bit imaginative instead of just the typical crap. He might actually be fun to watch for the lulz,

Mercy. Hard to type when I am laughing. Anyway, I have a neighbor who tried to get me to do this. I asked her about water to reconstitute the dry food and fuel for cooking. She changed the subject. Now I am curious as to how it tastes. I am a fan of a local farmer's market. Will stick with them! We made it to 2015. I believe people will continue to eat.

Howard Ruff's Ruff Times and all that stuff

I was too young to analyze their financial designs and figure out we were being scammed

so I believed it all. Not that I stockpiled anything, but I did get newsletters and read their
books.

It can happen to anyone.

Free the younger generation from these hucksters.

If they had made it a provision of his parole that he doesn't go on TV again.
