I do not intend to run.

But the idea of preparing for “field operation” might have some merit. I have lots of camping gear, but it is not organized. And commo gear.

We live in the “Big Nothing” in Texas, and the river breaks would be a natural for hiding and living off the land. Very possible.

But I cannot see that happening in Texas, no matter how insane the edicts from DC.

If the Military or the “0 security” forces are looking for you the open is the worst place to be. The US Military is very good at finding stuff in the open. Eric what's his name not withdstanding. If you have women and kids the open is suicide. Urban or other places with people where you can hide in plain sight are better.

I agree with you. My family and I were talking yesterday about some of this. Our concern is with Mexico imploding (and many more Mexicans coming here) and the recession or if it gets to a depression, fewer jobs, etc. people are going to be desperate and hungry and willing to do whatever to get what they need.

I found out this week about the number of gangs we have here (18 different ones) and those that are very dangerous gangs.

I will have no problem with defending myself or what I have. However, we are in town so living off the land could be a issue.

I am a Texan and I have never heard of the “big nothing”. Where is that?
