I normally like to see the original referenced source document before I post something, but failed to do so this time. So here it is.
Note to self: Buy more ammo.
I don’t have a strategy yet.
Hate to burst your bubble, but this has been going on since 2004, post 9/11.
Sadly, FEMA decided that, ‘We The People’ need to help ourselves as they obviously can’t - and have proven as much time and time again. Of course, that doesn’t stop their funding or individual paychecks, of course. *Rolleyes*
I know I sound like a broken record, but we’re ALL Free Agents! Always have been, always will be. Mother Government doesn’t give a chit about you as an individual; behave accordingly.
“Since September 11, 2001, the US Government has taken steps to encourage all citizens to make their own survival preparations. September was chosen as National Preparedness Month, as the tragedies of September 11, 2001 highlighted to the nation the importance of being prepared.”

Obama admits that he doesn’t know his ass from a hole in the ground and has no idea whatsoever on how to secure the nation. So, he abandons the people to our own devices and goes golfing.
Well, thankyouverymuch, dear leader, but that’s nothing new to real Americans. Our founders knew that the defense of nation and liberty starts at home and so guaranteed our right to keep and bear arms. When ISIS terrorists and the Mexican cartels and Russian gangsters and anyone else who wishes to cross over our porous unsecured, unguarded borders (thanks to idiots like you), government will not be the solution. As in every crisis, government is the problem. We the people will defend our homes, our families, our property and our liberty as God and the founders intended.
our Nation pulls together —neighbors support each other, communities react with compassion, and afterward, our country emerges stronger and more resilient.
So if you prepped and have water, food, first-aid, and other supplies you have to SHARE with your unprepared neighbors??
I will do it if I can but my family comes first. But this sounds like the guvmint will go around and confiscate your stuff at gun point.
So, on one hand the gov’t says to be prepared. But then if you are prepared the other hand of the gov’t says you’re a hoarder.
Now you have to stockpile enough not only for yourself, but for all the looters as well.
It solves the problem "How do you keep a riot going when all the stores are cleaned out and torched in the first week?" You go house-to-house, of course.
A little tip on what to stockpile: Big screen TV's and Air Jordans
Obama blows it out his shorts again, letting Americans know that he’s leaving the nation wide open to an attack by ISIS, and it’s every man for himself.
Rolled 3K of 5.56. Next week, or maybe the week after, another batch of 45 hits the press.
Don’t forget the Lard.
We’ve plenty of double-ought and slugs ....
Logistics makes that impossible. The country is WAY too big and has WAY too many people for the number of government goons to do much but maybe secure a couple of cities.

Well, those beraters don’t bother me in the slightest. They are like the grasshoppers in the tale about the grasshoppers and the ants.
And they can rage on - all sound and fury signifying nothing, apologies to someone who coined the phrase-can’t seem to remember who.
One day, there will likely be a big opportunity for a big heaping pile of SCHADENFREUDE, for those who are so inclined. Till then, I do what I do and I don’t care what they think about it.

Also factor in the number of weapons on both sides.
As a straight war college logistics exercise, ain't no way, no how.
They don't have numbers, position, logistics tail, manufacturing, or any of that.
This little burg of over 50K has 20 each LE. That's pretty poor odds on manning, if you are counting.
Most of the nation is like that.
Lots of the military and guard are deployed, just back from deployed, or going to deploy.
Nope. They can't do it.
Run real numbers. Get back to me. I've seen this done by professionals.
