In the movie Tin Cup, Roy McAvoy played by Kevin Costner states I hit it again because that shot was a defining moment, and when a defining moment comes along, you define the moment
or the moment defines you.

Preppers’ PING!!
For you consideration, discussion and comment.
I pretty much ignore Washington, DC already. I don't see any changes there.

Defining Moment #4: The Storm Troopers roll into town to disarm everyone.
"...You must never confuse faith that you will prevail in the endwhich you can never afford to losewith the discipline to confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be."

You may ignore them; doesn’t mean they’ll ignore you.
Ping.
Boston showed the force multiplier to use in your calculations. Hundreds of cops vs 2 dumb young men.

#2: Friends and neighbors in need in a post SHTF scenario
I already prep for my immediate family as well as those I expect to take in. If they aren't on the list, too bad. That means they refused to listen to me. I can't feed the entire world.
#3: The zombies are out
Anyone else feel the compunction to gather more preps or at least make a mental run through at the first explosion?

I may finesse that one if the situation arises. I plan to eat local (dandelion salads, wild onions, and other simple forage foods) as a supplement to stored food. If the eight year old girl next door or any other hungry neighbor who is not blacklisted comes over for food, I'll hand her a bowl/bag/armful of greens and tell her to eat those and look for more like them, but we will not be sharing or even admitting to having stored food. Sharing greens or squirrel meat allows us to avoid a direct refusal, in case there are feral government or quasi-governmental forces, or zombies that might be called to enforce "equality".
The neighbors already marked on my neighborhood map as responsible gun owners, skilled and honest tradesmen, or reliable allies will get more help/trade, but that is help and not charity; I want them as allies, not dependents. Obama voters and their family members over about age ten are permanently blacklisted and will (hopefully) be smart enough to "get off my lawn" and to stay off and far away. The Obama voters who don't think things have worked out well so far under Obama and attribute that to not going far enough are highlighted as a major threat and will be considered an extreme danger, never to be trusted, if things get chaotic.
ere are too many of us, and not enough of them to forcibly disarm the US. Do the math.

Boston also showed that faced with scary looking storm troopers, most people obey.
Or they can kill me. But they can only do that once.

Lock and load with armor piercing ammo. Yes, I do have those in case of emergency.
“But they can only do that once.”
I dunno... you got more lives than a cat with 9 lives. I think you’ll be around quite awhile.
