After a couple of Progressives I know laughed at any prepping, I suggested that they should practice for the FEMA camps by staying at the Salvation Army homeless shelter for a week of so to acclimate themselves to their future.

Those who went to shelters quickly discovered what Federal prisons can be like. Not all shelters, but many, were little FEMA camps in training. They search you, and pepper you with a list of questions. Then come “the rules.” If you are in the hands of decent people, you should be OK. Our evangelical church was once asked to set up cots and make our church an emergency shelter option. You could not have had better people caring for you. The Super dome after Katrina? That place was a lawless crap hole. Other shelters are run by Nurse Ratchet types.
