I would encourage all American Partisan readers to study the two Daily Mail articles linked below very carefully. The millions who are fleeing Paris, and the millions who are preparing to flee London, do not all have standing invitations from rural cousins to come out and stay a while. They have no plan other than get to the country, then figure something out. This tweet from the Daily Mail article gives you one idea of an evacuation plan: Take over a mansion.

Now, in the American context, it might not be new and more draconian Covid-19 lockdowns that spurs a rash of mass exoduses from our major cities, it might be civil disorder, looting, riots and widespread arson. In any event, rural folks had better start thinking about ways to stop a flood of angry, frightened, hungry and dehydrated city dwellers who might be arriving in their zip-code on short notice.
Im reminded of a Hurricane Katrina story that was once well known on Arfcom. A fellow in northern Louisiana had told a few prepper friends that they could park their RVs on his small farm. So far so good, but friends told friends, the address was passed around, and soon every square foot of the tract was covered in RVs and tents. It wasnt long before a power shift occurred, and a committee of RV-dwelling perfect strangers marched to the house to demand access to the facilities. The owner of the land was no longer calling the shots, simply by weight of numbers.
Have a plan to keep this from happening in your AO, even if it means temporarily blocking bridges or other choke points.
Good luck with your fearful attitude. Sounds like you’re screwed if your street is attacked.
It’s big news that leftists in the US have been first-time buying a lot of handguns, and it’s big news that ammo is hard to find just as they see the light.
What do you think quick mag changes, 30 round mags,
training and practice are for?
Get with it man.
Exactly.
You keyboard commandoes crack me up.
Even a platoon of well trained soldiers would find it a challenge to fend off 200 armed people coming from all directions who most likely will have as much firepower as you, hiding behind your long gone neighbors house or cars, who have a plan of attack, who are starving..who will probably have ex Iraq and Afghanistan experienced military mixed in.
It would difficult yes. Inflict enough immediate damage to make them pause, for more rounds. 200 trained, willing to die - is a no go. We would be over run. I thought we were talking Uber riders and soy milk city people.
We know how to split teams, tactical retreats, while setting up opposing fields of fire. If you think Im a keyboard warrior, come try. You might get lucky, but then again I might.
#1 speed of target acquisition. That and you dont have a kicking clue where and how our property is set up. I am no keyboard warrior. Family will stand and fight when strangers are running to the hills. Doesnt matter. Wont happen anyway. Most likely it will be the ATF enforcing the Biden Buy Back. I wont stand a chance but my boots will be on.
