Funny thing about these shows is that they always show the urban horrors.

Show me some of those rural horrors that result from societal collapse. LOL

Living in a very rural area... I agree completely! Around here I will have neighbors helping neighbors and miles of security teams protecting the area. That is just how we roll.

Wasn't the survivalist pretty rural?

When the people in the urban areas flee the cities and go into the rural area to pillage and loot they will either have to help, move on, or fertilize the fields for years to come. It will be a bloodbath.

I really hope this never ever ever happens.

They've shown lots of rural horrors in at least hundreds of movies like "The Hills Have Eyes," "Wrong Turn" and so on. We are the rural horrors! Boo! LOL! [familyop lurches around, head tilted to the side, moaning and growling.]

Actually, rural crimes are generally worse in collapsing societies. The level of violence increases with the distance from law enforcement. Even now, many crimes in rural areas exceed the level of violence found in many cities.

The statistics are not as apparent due to population densities. Though now rare, in the case of a major breakdown, the law of the jungle will hit fast and hard...
