To where? The gulf coast? Central America? South America? What does the burden of a large caravan provide besides slowing you down?

First thing I would do is blow up the amite river bridges. Keep the Baton Rougeans on their side.
Fair strategy, but what would you use/how would you blow them up?

think I would head to a nearby backpacking supply store, and load up on freeze dried food,
Not a bad idea. But I would assume the owners of those stores would be taking those supplies for themselves asap and I doubt they keep large stocks. But certainly a decent idea

I think one thing most people don't account for under this scenario is how quiet it's going to be.
No radio/tv/headsets, no traffic road noise, no airplanes, nothing... just the birds and the breeze.
If you have a "running" generator or vehicle, you're an immediate target. Big time.
It's one of the biggest problems I have with Walking Dead. Shite's been years with zero background noise and yet Darryl rides all over sneaking up on Neegan with a Harley? It's bullshite. You'd hear that thing from 10 miles away.

Yea the risk/benefit isn’t worth it with a generator in a long term scenario

Call me crazy but my first move is to go to the pet store (a couple blocks away) and buy/take as much as I can carry them keep going back until nothing is left

You are soft. Get hungry enough I bet you scarf it down. I wouldn’t start eating it day 1 but when the real food runs out you will be begging for your kibbles and bits

If OP happened everyone would wish they had their own wall around their property that’s for sure
