Frowning takes 68 muscles.
Smiling takes 6.
Pulling this trigger takes 2.
I'm lazy.
It will never happen, Biden said so.
Got me a John Ashcroft approved duck tape and garbage bag home kit. Them terrorists are never gonna hurt me!
No reason to think they can protect the US". The federal government is a bad joke in so many ways.
Whoever said that people react to a big snowstorm like it was a nuclear attack was pretty close to being correct.
I won’t take much too turn civilization on it’s ear.
A year later America hears of grisly reports of an astonishing amount of Muslims that have, “simply disappeared” but show no evidence of leaving the country.
Washington is terrified and Islamic leaders are staging mass protests on the sudden absence of Jihad volunteers coming from America.
And in some weird news events saved for the Enquirer type of magazines it being reported that across the country a new fad has emerged, “People are attaching what appears to be a human scalps on their cars antennas”

How about 40 guys each hitting two refineries on the same day with grenade launchers putting three HE rounds and three WP rounds to start a massive fire at each refinery.
If you hit the top 80 refineries, you would knock out about 85% of the total US capacity. Most would be off line for days or weeks. Now imagine what this will do to the cost of gasoline, diesel and chemical feed stocks. Now, do it just before winter when demand goes up.

“How Will You Survive the Collapse of Civilization?”
I will chuckle to myself as mile-high glaciers slowly invade from the north, and hoist a few to the distant civilization that will find our artifacts.
Another thing to keep in mind will be that not only will an event like this “Wake the sleeping giant” it will also call all his relatives and allies.
Just to take a whimsical long shot...
America is in shambles from a massive Islamic attack on many fronts, within 24 hours France starts mandatory Muslim deportations.
England builds Muslim internment camps.
Israel has no comment on how Mecca came to be a 20 mile glass parking lot.
Almost, unreadable with, so, many, commas.
Has everyone noticed that this topic of discussion has become more and more mainstream in the past couple of years?

This is no joke people
Chicago - they got the right city for starters.
Bump for later.
To answer the title question:
1. Leave town. I have friends and relatives in the country. There are enough of us , close enough yet widely spaced enough, to start a new Underground Rail Road at least as far as Tulsa or Little Rock.
2. To Gorgoroth with the anti-poaching laws, shortly followed by getting over the cultural barrier to eating dogs and cats. The first to do these will live longer and travel farther from the centers of disruption than those that only figure it out after the Spam runs out.
3.a. Avoid contact with strangers.
3.b. Avoid conflict with strangers you cannot avoid.
3.c. Avoid losing unavoidable conflicts with strangers by such brutality and treachery as may be necessary.
3.d. In the aftermath of a conflict, take the opportunity to increase your stock from the losers’ resources. In the extremity, this may include harvesting fresh meat from the losers themselves. (Epic Win if you find some fava beans and a nice Chianti.)
4. Team up with your friends, and learn to trust their friends. Form communities based on private ownership and free trade. Accept the fact that the patriarchal dictatorship may be the norm if your group consists mostly of one extended family. Seek to bend it towards a representative form by appeals to reason and history. Failing in that, head out on your own again.
5. Listen to the radio. The presence of entertainment radio with advertising of useful items for sale may be your first clue that somewhere, civilization is being reasserted.
LAST BUT NOT LEAST: Think about this stuff OFTEN, if not ALL THE TIME. The right mental attitude will give you a head start on the rest. Let your weekend getaways be practice for finding out-of-the-way evacuation routes and temporary hole-up shelters. If you pay close enough attention, you may notice a problem and take action hours, even days ahead of any official announcement or general panic.

Generators are nice but you can quickly run out of gas and that may not be available either. Everybody we know is coming to our house in the event of a catastrophy, they have told us put in more RV hookups as if they could drive their RV's out of the cities?
But we live near I5 and mauraders may be able to find us. We will need our friends and family to come and help protect the property. Saying this a little in jest, but I really would feel insecure living in a very big city with no escape plans.

Let us count the ways.”
So sad! It is surely the age of paranoia and gullibility.

Dust off my copy of “How to Serve Man”.
You got to soak liberals in milk tho, to get the gaminess out.
