[Tilted Irish Kilt]

elbookelbook : " Guns not Gold
If you cant protect yourself and yours it will simply be stolen from you."

If you can't protect it, ..you don't own it !
You are merely the placeholder until someone more powerful decides they want your 'stuff' / supplies.
The ability to provide self-defense is a key to personal and family security.

Also consider :

Supply chain disruption and shortages of food
Civil unrest
Disruption of services (911, police, fire, ambulance, trash pick up, etc., etc.,..)
Possible Disruption of utilities ( water, electricity, natural gas, etc., etc..)

Remember OPSEC ( according to Selco ):
“If we are talking about a “revolution” event, there is a saying about it that “what was down goes up” (and vice versa),
and in addition to that things might get pretty radical.
In essence, that means that you should pay extra attention to OPSEC. ..
