They will let things settle down--either the bad guys will be eliminated or they will prevail--or some sort of truce will happen.
Simple enough--get out of those hotspots if you can't really hide well (like from thermal imaging).
If anyone thinks you are nuts have them check out what happened with hurricane Rita in 2005.
People were like locust moving across the land.
Convenience stores shelves were emptied in just a couple of hours.
Fuel tanks ran dry and there was no way to get more fuel delivered.
Tens of thousands of cars ran out of fuel and were pushed to the side of the road.
Very easy decision to make: RUN THEM OFF.
The kids are just props. Like good New Socialist Parents, the kids will be used as window dressing, to garner sympathy from those of us who had the maturity to prepare. "It's for the children!" they cried while they indoctrinated them in their government schools.
If you give them even so much as an Obama Happy Meal, you just told them that you've got stash. They will think, "what ELSE have you got"? And they will come back in the night, with their boyfriends in tow, and they will kill you, your family, even your cat, and take all you have. It's their "fair share", they are "entitled" to what you have.
Tell them to go to the nearest FEMA shelter and show their voter ID card (if they have them). Their liberal creds can get them helpings from Obama's stash. After all, the gibmedats wanted it that way.
People cannot now conceive how insane and how quickly it would all happen. If it were to happen right now, by this weekend there would be dead bodies by the side of the road.
I just watched "The War of the Worlds" (Tom Cruise version) this weekend. The scene near the bridge when he came through the crowd with his car was very instructive. Civilization's veneer is very thin - you see proof of that just going for a parking spot or trying to merge into traffic every day. We see it yearly on Black Friday, as people turn on each other just to save $5 or $10 on the latest piece of garbage for their kids. People are just smart animals, and we are generally ruled by fear and greed.
I don't want to be near any crowds at all when the SHTF - the best way to walk away from a fight is not to avoid it in the first place.
Oh, and there were very few guns in The War of the Worlds - which is not reflective of reality at all, even in the Northeast (where I grew up). In the South and West there are generally more guns than people. The carnage during food shortages will be shocking to most. Stock up on your bullets, beans and band aids and practice your skills NOW, while there's time to do so.
They get a bag of rice, 2 liters of potable water, a disposable lighter and a warning. Tell no one where you got it and don't come back. Next time a bag of rice won't be what you get. Harsh but true.
Now, depending on circumstances that basic protocol could change. If they were injured, if they had screaming babies, if there were hostiles roaming the area, etc.
Different considerations would also be given for folks who have something valuable to bring to the party.
Imagine how those animals will act when they think order and the rule of law will never be restored.
The welfare types already do that. Seen it myself.
I can’t see that type having the wherewithal to walk out of the city to where the food is.
“Horror icon, Stephen King, has a theory that the same sort of “weather vane” indication of the public mood can be discerned from the popularity, or lack thereof, of current scary movies. “
Recently, we’ve had Paranorman released, The Walking Dead is a huge hit, Warm Bodies is coming soon as well as World War Z.... all zombie movies/shows.
The real zombie apocalypse is coming.
I do nothing as my front door will be shut/locked and I'm not going to the door. If the situation is that bad, a new line has been drawn in the sand and I drew it.
Better to die a free man, standing up than live on your knees as a slave to tyrants.
Molon Labe!
BUMP
right on the money
Further proof that Obama and his minions stole this election. A lot of the Loonies who voted for Obama last time didn't do so this time. They were force fed the Kenyan again and they are as p!$$ed as we are.
With a "minor" event like Sandy, your protocol might be acceptable. In a real SHTF scenario where society has collapsed, your protocol would not be good.
If I were hungry, I would come to your house and either use Plan A or Plan B:
Plan A: I hold my gun under my coat and collapse on the ground outside your door. My wife pounds frantically on your door and says I am injured -- can you help? Your family is about 2 minutes from dying because your protocol fails.
Plan B: My wife and I come to your door looking quite respectable and calm. Again, my gun is under my coat. My wife is sticking a pin in our baby's leg. We politely ask you for food for our hungry child. Your family is about 2 minutes from dying because your protocol fails.

After Sandy the Mayor of NYC banned food for the homeless... there are towns and cities still demanding property taxes be paid on time... etc can you imagine people like that in charge when the crap really hits the fan?
When I worked at grocery stores we had dry goods delivered about 3 times a week, we had dairy delivered a couple times a week.
Those shelves will be bare within a couple of hours when the excrement starts flying.
