“...After hurricane Andrew, I went down there to help friends. It was a war scene. It looked like someone dropped a bomb on the area as far as you could see....”

We live in rural SW Louisiana. After Hurricane Rita ripped thru here, we were 16 weeks without power out here. We were, and remain, pretty well stocked up on all the essentials...including ammo. Situations like that bring out the best, and the worst, in folks. Most around here joined together to help each other out and to help protect each others’ property etc. There were a few “bad eggs” but they didn’t tend to hang around long when a riot 12 gauge is stuffed in their faces. But a full blown collapse is a totally different story. It would be like surviving after a hurricane but there was no help coming.....ever. People will panic, especially in the big urban areas, when the big food trucks stop running. I would not want to be one of the social/political “elite” captured by “the hungry, unwashed masses” when this occurs. It will be barbaric.
