Currently we have another "Bugging Out what handgun?" thread going. Probably about the 100th Bug Out thread since I joined the Forum.
A lot of us are prepared to "Bug In"..... some of us are already Bugged Out given where we live. Some have a " safer place" to go!
I started to pay attention to the whole subject from just before Y2K (1999), reinforced by 9/11...videos of hurricane and forest fire evacuations .. most recently by Glenn Beck
But, mostly because I'd finally gotten married and my boys were born in 1997 and 2000..... so while not a Prepper I'm prepared to look after my family.
One guy in the current thread said to the folks in Wyoming and Montana "What are you going to do when we show up with grandkids....... and armed to the teeth?"
I doubt many will be willing to take in armed strangers and share their food, water and TP. Be hard to turn mothers and small children away. Not sure I want to turn my back on "military age men"!!!!
What are you going to do?
Given that recent polling has 71% of the population saying the country is going in the wrong direction, recession, inflation, the Ukraine, China and 300,000 "Got aways" so far this year.................
If the SHTF what are you prepared and willing to do?
Something to think about!!
