I'd overtake all my neighbors and use their stuff

As long as I get at least two of them before they get me, then I’ll die knowing I did my part.

Do you really think raiding a prepper is going to go good for you? Most I know over hoard guns and under hoard food.
Ole baw that has a nice garden every year, a few chickens and can hunt/fish is going to do better than most preppers.
Your plan being I am going to steal someone else's shite is the plan of a shitbag and you will catch a bullet first.

If shite really hits the fan 80 to 90% of us will be dead in the first year. If you're in a metro area you aren't going to last long. If you're in the country and don't have any plans other than the redneck "i know how to deer hunt" type stuff you're going to be gone pretty quick as well.
Without power/transportation the US population is wayyyy over carrying capacity.
If you try to isolate in the country it won't be long until folks start dispersing because everybody always thinks that all the food is in the country. There's around 100 people per square mile of land in the US. Afer 50% are dead in the first month or two of the grid going down you're still left with a lot of people dispersing and competing for resources. Game is going to run out really fast. Folks are going to learn how to hunt quick and they won't be following seasons or bag limits. You're going to have to form a pretty strong group with leadership and a command structure to have any chance at survival.
You're out of your mind. Surviving in the country would be the easiest way to live in a situation like that.

Yes....BECAUSE WE LIVE HERE!

You wouldn't be the only person with that idea. In the midwest you'd be fine. Along the coasts/great lakes where the population centers are you're screwed.

Ruskies in the 1980s would have seen shelves stocked with bread, smokes and M&Ms and dropped their weapons and started making coffee with vodka in it.

If you don’t have an underground bunker that’s nuclear proof stocked with food and water for the next 10 years your probably already behind most Americans

A large portion of society would remain in cities and think that someone was coming to help them. By the time they realize that nobody is coming they would already be sick from bad water and spoiled food.
All the people in cities who dont know how to do anything necessary...fire, shelter, purify water, basic first aid etc would be screwed and dead within a couple of months at most.
If you like in a remote area now you have a pretty good chance of survival for 5 years. My farm has lakes with fish and feral hogs by the river. I doubt a bunch of city folks could kill all the hogs, Ive been trying for years with no real effect.

Coonasses effectively extirpated hogs from south louisiana from 1940-1980. Hell, I didn't see my first one until 2013 in iberville parish.
Hungry people can wipe out an animal population.

I love how the globalists struggle to paint the people opposed to emptying the Treasury to give to Ukraine - in other words, America First - as somehow being pro-Russia.

Bring it.
Posted on 2/22/23 at 5:39 pm to Lutcher Lad
Yes. If I can survive 1st 30 days I like my odds moving forward.

I wanted a prepper thread
Now I want a board.

I have a lot of ammo
Posted on 2/22/23 at 6:15 pm to Lutcher Lad
The real question would be is life even worth living at that point?
Posted on 2/22/23 at 6:15 pm to Lutcher Lad
I'm thinking about getting one of these since you don't need A permit of any kind. You can get it in. 22 or 9mm.

Wasn't it the Japanese that said you couldn't attack Americans on the mainland because they'd be a US citizen hiding behind every tree with a gun, or something like that?
No wonder the dems are so desperate to disarm law abiding citizens.
Anyway it would suck to be in Louisiana in that situation, at least 50% of the population would turn feral.
Now if I was in northern Maine/New Hampshire/Vermont, probably have a lot less to worry about, just have to hope the marauders from down south burn up their fuel / kill each other before they have a chance to get to you.
