What happens in any given American city or county if the bullets outlast the last cans of beans?

Lots of guns and ammo, but no food?

Serious question to ponder.

Denver, for instance, needs 174 tons of food a day to survive. They have 3 days storage in Denver with 3 days storage at transfer warehouses just outside of Denver. They have a north/south and east/west rail line, and I-25 and I-70 freeways. The airport is 35 miles outside the city.

Denver is a goner in 30 days or less should there be disruptions to their supply chain. The bullets will probably outlast the beans.

I’ve thought about that a lot. We all talk about having a support group, or a semi-organized neighborhood group. But how do you ensure that everybody runs out of food at the same time? I ask because if they don’t, and some do run out, the ones who do still have food will suddenly become...not your friend. I imagine a situation where stepping outside your door could be a matter of life and death. I live in the country. I BELIEVE my neighbors have some stores of food, but I KNOW they all have guns.

I could be surprised, but I don't expect true famines in America. Expensive food? You bet.... but no famine.
