You&#...Francis,<br /><br />Please.<br /><br />"Never" before?<br />You're much, much better than that.<br /><br />Use the categories you listed, and google the active duty military strength of the US in 1945. Then as a percentage of the US population in 1945.<br /><br />We are at a <i>fraction</i> of that level of official strength today.<br /><br />In light of that, you want to restate that premise a tad, I suspect.Aesophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07834464741531503378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-55352486162968705562020-01-04T16:19:22.054-05:002020-01-04T16:19:22.054-05:00Ironically, the poorer and rural neighborhoods wil...Ironically, the poorer and rural neighborhoods will be better positioned to survive:<br />- may have ability to use wood/other materials to cook and heat<br />- likelier to be in homes that are insulated - newer construction s NOT that great for passive heat retention<br />- better access to gardens (rural) or practiced in the art of scrounging (urban)<br />- likelier to have military experience/survival training<br />- likelier to be armed<br /><br />The Elite will go under fast.Linda Foxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15024201252345608291noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-23280814661991544472020-01-04T00:50:32.932-05:002020-01-04T00:50:32.932-05:00At the beginning of November I was in the Albany a...At the beginning of November I was in the Albany area for a few days. While driving back roads in the small villages in the area I saw a house with an anti-SAFE Act sign. Can't remember exactly what it said but it was pretty obvious. I had forgotten, as probably a lot of people do, that attitudes away from NYC can be very different.Rick Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10992428161064901136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-9355149256716587132020-01-03T13:52:57.883-05:002020-01-03T13:52:57.883-05:00Once the grid is down, the situation would be like...Once the grid is down, the situation would be like Puerto Rico... on steroids.<br /><br />https://www.askaprepper.com/puerto-rico-this-is-what-living-in-a-6-month-blackout-looks-like/<br /><br />NITZAKHONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04110716447757507226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6557458849091969678.post-74468020721018625762020-01-03T11:49:21.592-05:002020-01-03T11:49:21.592-05:00Politicians will not be immune.

See places within 100 yards someone could hide? I guarantee there are lots of them.<br /><br />But more broadly, power will go out. Without power there's no heat. Or refrigeration. Or gas stations. Or cash / banking. That national guard is going to have other things to do in a real big hurry as people understand they'll starve.NITZAKHONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04110716447757507226noreply@blogger.com
