Just wanna get an emergency wood-stove set up, and stock some canned food. Don't know how long people could last. Could only be a few days or weeks or months. What about people that need meds or dentist or doctors, or get injured? That could be a real problem. I still say ANYTHING COULD HAPPEN IN AMERICA, and with Biden it probably will.

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted August 20, 2021 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted August 20, 2021 Completely depends on the "apocalypse" and upheaval. If it was very bad the cities would be like a war zone. The food and water would be an issue but nothing like people killing each other for their stuff.

Problem is, gang members with AKs, will be driving into the country-side looking for food, and money. There was a gang of black militants with weapons that got arrested in MAss. a few weeks ago!!!

Guest Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 I don't know if the military/police could control the country. When the Tsarnehav brothers bombed, half the cops in Eastern Mass. responded. The brothers had only one stolen pistol, and it took the cops days to get them. Can you imagine hundreds if not thousands of people on a rampage with all the weapons out there!!! Holy shit!!

Platinum Contributing Member Highmark Posted August 20, 2021 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted August 20, 2021 (edited) Honestly with what we seen during lockdowns I don't think its crazy for anyone to have a few months food and water. Imagine what would go on if we seen another virus with a mortality rate like Ebola 50%+ or SARS 10-30% plus and of everyone not just those with pre-existing conditions. Nobody would go to work.

Angry ginger Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 depends. biggest danger is getting over run which is where i think a good prepper needs to have a big family or involve others for the protection of the property. 1 guy with a dozen weapons and a year worth of food for his family of 4 in a suburban area is getting over run. Fenced in rural compound with block walls, firing positions and underground stores should be able to at least have a fighting chance. Have to hope the city and suburban folk off each other to keep the numbers down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would need a fort literally, and PEOPLE IN YOUR COMPOUND WITH YOU!! One person could not do it! I tried to recruit my helper to come here and shoot if necessary. I was talking against the blacks, and his kid's best friend is black, and he must have told his wife, 'cause he got pissed-off at me. Fukkin goof. Fukkin bastards.

Zambroski Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 It really depends on the discretion when preparing. If they ran their mouths and or if their kids know about it (mouth runners), one week. It also depends on where they are prepping. In town….one week. Out of town….it depends on how prepared they are but, could be the duration. One thing is for sure, big city people will be eating each other in two weeks once their food supply chain is disrupted. And it won’t take full disruption to cause this either. Just one of their access points being blocked will cause mass hysteria. Idiots.

Always said i felt real good in the event of a nuclear war with a naval shipyard 10 miles north, AFB 10 miles north west and the nuclear power plant 2 miles south. First wave and we were vaporized for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A society meltdown will leave many millions to scoop up the asset remains of the others. Large shit hole cities will become war zones. If you are outside of that, local militias will be established. They will be brutal…and need to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold Member Kivalo Posted August 20, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted August 20, 2021 If they can band together as a group with a defendable compound they have a chance at longevity. Otherwise they have merely stockpiled supplies for others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, a group of defendable compounds…that is a better plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm sure China and Russia already know this, as well as the addresses of the gun nuts on this website. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Have roughly 3 months of stable food supply. Underground well. Solar power, and genny. 800 gallons of propane. 30 acres surrounding the place. Guns and the most expensive ammo I ever bought. A plan.
