You’re exactly right. Martial Law can’t be far away. Since Katrina I’ve heard it said thousands of times to be prepared to last 3 days because it’ll take that long for FEMA help to arrive. But, most of these people were probably watching “Dancing With Tom Delay” and didn’t see the warnings.
When Ike hit, we had plenty of food and water. We had no electricity for 8 days. And we were the lucky ones.
It is definitely going to get worse. I hope those who prepared also have plenty of ammo because the “zombies” are coming!
Gulfport, MS had two black kids (14 and 16) kill an 84 year old white man with a baseball bat for 10 gallons of regular and a 3500 watt Coleman generator. I had a friend shoot at looters trying to break into my business... he was staying at his business due to his home being destroyed and we all stick together. I know how bad things can get.
I had to remove 4 meth heads in an LTD from my home property a few days after Katrina. It was only me and an MP4 AR-15. They were caught breaking into a house a few days later (about 15 miles from here) and two were shot dead and two are still in prison. If they had made any aggressive move towards me... I would have killed them. That is how prepared one must be and one must be sane and level headed because you may have to make life and death decisions.
It is too damned bad that most people in the affected area do not have the Second Amendment Right to defend themselves and their families... but the wolves are well armed and they are of evil in spirit and intent.
Mississippi Power has 70 power company trucks and crews in the area (some are working in Maryland now)... and we are sending Church groups up as soon as they are welcomed and can get into the affected area safely. We are all Americans... and ALL Americans need to see how ineffectual government is in the worst of times... and how evil some people are... and how much good and GOD flows from the vast majority of people. Whether it is in the North or South... Americans are Americans.
