Why has “Survival Mom” studiously avoided advising people, especially people who are at home, to arm themselves?

All of this advice boils down to “run and hide”. What happens when running and hiding doesn’t work? Just let yourself and your loved ones be slaughtered? That’s what it sounds like to me.

Every Day Carry means carrying a concealed pistol every single day.

She’s 100% correct. Avoid, run away, and do not get involved in armed confrontations unless it is absolutely impossible to avoid. Even at the point of hurting your pride.
Today’s hit movies and Internet fantasies aside, -any- bullet wound in a dystopian world is very likely to prove fatal.
This is not the time to play army and strut around all day daring anyone to cross your imaginary lines.
Think little house on the prairie more than the latest zombie opera.

I would say, because real life ain’t like the movies. Yes you need to be armed and yes there’s a good chance that showing a gun of even using one will get you out of many situations, but you can take them all out unless you are Rambo. Are you Rambo?

So your saying run out into the midst of the mob and start blasting?
