How did we (Jews) survived Exile for 2,000 years?
Many will not know who to survive on their own. So thew will have to raid.
However for peaceful people, hopefully you will be one of those.
We may look down on the Amish, Orthodox Jews or other such groups. But they will fare the best in a SHTF scenario.
We wear different clothing than them and understand more about Technology. But you will still be a tribe, a Linked Family of Families.
Los Angeles, Phoenix, Las Vegas, they are just places, Metal and Stone.
When the walls come tumbling down and you loose everything you have, you will always have family, and your family will always have tribe.
Good post.
Peaceful people will not last long when radical Muzlims, young Mexican gangsters or Black thugs come hunting. I haven’t even mentioned the White punks who are strung out on drugs. They will be the worst.
Check online for Lehmans in Ohio ; they are hardware supplier of antiques and current Amish goods.
THey offer a catalogue of Amish goods, and tools , and some interesting Amish culture books which are useful, especially in a SHTF situation.
