Any honest law enforcement officer will tell you in the best of circumstances they are not here to prevent crime. They are here to pass out tickets to increase revenues and to clean up the mess after a crime has been committed. It is about personal responsibility. Stand and protect yourself and your family.

Know your AO, what can you anticipate from the local populace? There is one large town with in 26 miles of the retreat.
The population is 8,037
The age group I'm concerned about is from 19 to age 49, that is 33.8% of the population or approximately 2,500 people.

From the article: Impoverishment will lead to desperation and anger, which in turn leads to “nothing left to lose” attitudes and a rise in violence and criminal activity.

Leaving our country no choice but to adapt?!?
I have a choice, we all have choices, that is what the commies don't understand. Or maybe they do and that's the threat to their agenda!
No matter who or what causes the break down we must fight to live, it is in our blood it is our nature we will fight to survive.

On a more serious note the other side of the coin is the gangs that also read. Not just the block gangs, but actual pyramidal crime gangs. They can also see that where today they can push Drugs and Guns, and people in a post government world they can also provide the security, collect the taxes, and rake in the cash. If they are large enough they will be able to control large segments of the Land mass and sell franchises in the hinterlands to friends and fellow followers of the dollar. The franchise fees will pay for the hard-nuts and weapons needed to possibly make them a State Government or maybe a City mayor. These are where we had better get knowledgeable. Last week in Sampson County they had 4 armed home invasions by the same 4 people (Suspected at this point). They are targeting Mexican farm workers. Nest will come the Mexican gangs. Then the skinheads. The people are just smiling because the ones hit were Mexicans. What they don't understand is that they will be next.

Safetalker's post is worth discussing, the FBI reported over 20,000 gangs with over 1 million members and growing 13,000 a month since last January.
I don't believe we will be looking at an all out Revolution once this economy collapses, we will be looking at survival.
Each of us needs to research your AO's, population, age group percentages that maybe a risk ect...
I know we have had these discussions before, but maybe we need to have further discussions again. Are each of us at the point of readiness to protect & survive?
Maybe thru discussion items could be brought up that some may not thought of or forgot. This is one way we can have each others backs while we are so far apart.
