unforgiven Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 That is a true concept brother,but then you know that.That was the jist of survival for the person in the balkans when the serb/croat war broke out.As a group you stand a better chance,than going alone.As the wolves will key on the loner and destroy him/her.

alelks Posted March 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 In fairness it is hard for a layman to put the years of training/education and mindset required for waging UW into a few paragraphs but he makes some good points. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98Z5V Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Great article, and very valid points made. There are people all around that can contribute many, many things, in all aspects and skill sets. They'll never do it on their own, though, unless led to do it. The Leaders will make that happen. <thumbsup>I've got a couple ARs. They're not all for me. Most of them are for the people that I know I can trust - but don't have one of their own. I'll need them (the people that I can trust), but I'll need them armed, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StainTrain Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 Good read. I wholeheartedly agree. Plus, dying in a storm shelter/bunker is not my idea of good time either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planeflyer21 Posted March 1, 2013 Report Share Posted March 1, 2013 That is a good read.As many of you may know, we dc'ed from the television except for dvd's.I can't believe this type of prepping is what is so popular. I thought it must be pretty stupid when that guy shot himself or his kid on "accident" on one of those shows.Reminds me of that Twilight Zone or Outer Limits where the guy goes into his bunker to avoid a nuclear war, turns out there was an accidental detonation and they bulldozed all the rubble onto his shelter and sealed him in.Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPBCTS Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 It makes sense to me.I think there are more people trying to get their act together, which is a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaFClass Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 Like many others on the forum, I have more firearms than I would be able to carry. Yes they are not all for me, but would be for people I trust and want to be protected if SHTF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerman Posted March 2, 2013 Report Share Posted March 2, 2013 People are going to naturally clique up. We always have. I really can't stand watching "doomsday preppers". They are all lone wolves... they are planning to defend themselves against the entire world that all of a sudden just looses their mind. It's unrealistic. Not that people won't loose their minds, but that you can't hold out against such a thing for a length of time. Only one or two people had a network of their neighbors or friends. That's good planning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magwa Posted March 3, 2013 Report Share Posted March 3, 2013 Some great points, I agree 100% buried in a bunker is only viable to a select few most will not have young kids.... also taking to the back country is only a option in certain times of the year unless you have mega caches stored there...knowing all your neighbors is a must have a party meet and greet, learn who they are what they think and choose wisely.....
