May be a repost...But good for a memory jog... Monsters of Anarchy - Post Collapse Security Considerations - YouTube
WOW! Gives us a good heads-up on what the enemy MAY be - quite different than the normal idea of the "Glden Horde".......
I'm sure that you realize that some gang members have joined the military specifically to gain exactly the kind of skill set represented in that video. I got 'read the riot act' just today on a gun forum for being "harsh" with a person who was new to that forum but clearly was not a new shooter. They were of the opinion that the thing they participate in for a couple of hours at a gun show to apply for their CWP was . . and I quote: "training". And that they intended to carry a .22 pistol as a primary defensive weapon. I was told that not everyone "wanted or needed to be a SWAT operator or an IPSC master". I patiently, as patiently as I could, explained to them that I realized that they don't - and that was good. Because you see, IPSC *is a game*. And SWAT works *as a team* they have backup *with them*. Us citizens walking the street, wishing to defend ourselves and our families, need to be FAR MORE CAPABLE and HIGHLY SKILLED than both groups.
I know it's a serious video but when he said you and the other 5 members of your party and then it cuts to a guy, his wife, two daughters, son and a cow made me laugh. It is a good video to make you think though. A good reason to train harder.
what i find interesting is the comment about using molitov cocktails to burn you out.... I guess they didn't really need your preps...
Thats what the burro portable ABC fire extinguishers are for. To put a nice white coating on your jerked and now charred beef.
