I would hate to think I had allowed myself and my family to get into a circumstance where cannibalism became a real possibility. However the drive to survive and protect loved ones is undeniable(for most people...) and if it meant my family members dying slowly and painfully, I wouldn't hesitate to make the necessary choices to keep them alive.

As I've said before, I'm a barbarian, my clan comes first, last and always. While most other people cling to the veneer of civilization with all of it's taboos and mindless restrictions like a drowning man to a life preserver, I'm not so constrained.

A good example of this drive to survive is the soccer team whose plane crashed in the Andes. A movie "Alive" was made about their experiences. It is a scary question, What would you do to survive? These young men didn't kill anyone, yet had to resort to cannibalism to survive. Chilling.

I agree wholeheartedly! I've had vegetarians ragging on Nugent and say they would rather starve than eat a deer. I said "You have obviously never starved".
