“Motorcycle gangs will be the most dangerous and effect looters/pillagers during any prolong SHTF event.
Do not discount the Bloods, Crips, MS-13, etc. They have vehicles too. And probably better firepower.”
...good point...if we look at the LA Riots and Katrina examples, the first looters were individual free lancers...in a prolonged SHTF event, I expect that crimnal gangs like Bloods and Hells Angels will begin to dominate...they already have the weaponry and organization in place...they will be like the 14th century Mongol hordes...isolated survivors will be easy pickings for them...they will avoid fortified villages of well armed citizens.
