You Don't Have Enough Ammo for the Post-Ginsburg 2020 Apocalypse

Strap In for the Ginsburg Riots, Kids

So, how was your weekend?

The news of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s passing on Friday certainly ratcheted up the 2020 crazy by several orders of magnitude, didn’t it?

I was heading out to meet some friends when I saw the news on Twitter and my first thought was, “This might be the last time I can get out and have fun before ‘peaceful protests’ begin again.” The lefties wasted little time in confirming my suspicion that RBG’s death was going to do the seemingly impossible: make them even more unhinged.

The civil unrest that we’ve been dealing with since May got out of hand because it was being aided and abetted by elected Democratic officials in each of the riot cities. Democrats were perfectly OK with looking the other way and pretending that the riots weren’t happening. It wasn’t until last week that Joe Biden and Nancy Pelosi got around to condemning the violence, and that was only after new polling revealed that voter sentiment in the riot zones was shifting to Trump.

D.C. Democrats are already caterwauling about what they will do if the Senate votes to replace Ginsburg before the election and they happen to win control of the White House and Senate in November.

There is very little useful ammo available for purchase. Common handgun calibers are virtually unavailable.

You can find it. It's expensive, but it's out there. Ammoseek is a good resource.

Supplement with bows and arrows, spears, swords, a mace or two, Viking axes, etc. They will be necessary in CWII.

reloading supplies are gone too. Fortunately, I have no reason to be a panic buyer of ammo or loading supplies.

AR sales numbers strongly disagree. Most gun stores are long back ordered for black rifles, but still have some shotguns.

No doubt. I saw a BAR destroy a cement barrier. I hate to get hit by a 30-06 in a vest. Better than without.

FLIR optics are rather popular in the area, it's just a matter of being up and in the right place. But working people gotta work, which makes it tough to do perimeter security at all hours of the night. And the bums no doubt are aware of that.

Monitor area community forums & social media where folk congregate to post about area happenings, as well as LE pages and social media. Watch for odd trends that could tip you off to things going on that aren't right.

Would it be enough to take a person out of the fight?

good question... probably depends on the person... i think the average person would be highly unmotivated to continue after taking a 30.06 to the vest... but, adrenaline in combat does odd things to a person and other would continue on. I saw a guy take a 7.62x54r round to the vest and jump right up and start returning fire.

"IF we knew of anyone that has a dozen guns."

In a pinch a dozen guns is enough for a dozen people. The responsible thing to do then is have a dozen guns and enough ammo for a dozen people. Somebody should do this.

"People would call me a liar if I was to fess up to what I’m sitting on. "

After answering some probing questions from my kid brother recently he commented, "You're even more of a gun nut than I thought." He hasn't even asked all the right questions yet.

I’m old. I don’t get out much. I don’t know a dozen responsible people I could hand a rifle to when the balloon goes up.

I don’t understand this idea that a person needs 45 tons of ammo; I have enough for sighting in and practice once a week.

I shoot about 100 to 150 rounds a week in pistol calibers to keep my reactions up to date, about 50 rounds of rifle caliber just so I can nit pick my own groupings.

In a full scale PROG/LIB/DEMOCRAT/COMMUNIST/SOCIALIST/SNOWFLAKE riot I wouldn’t expect to have to expend more than 20 to 25 rounds (including non-lethal wounds or misses), pick your targets to cause the most chaos and panic.

Pick out those who appear to be the leaders and organizers; the ones with the megaphones, the ones doing the gesticulating while shouting instructions or orders, the ones gathering small 3 to 5 person groups around themselves in order to pass on instructions.

Kill those individuals (the officers and senior noncoms) and the mob will start to fall apart and run for cover pretty quickly; especially when they have blood, bone, and brain matter splattered all over themselves.

Also, wonder if an abdomen shot is better than a chest shot.
