What if TSHTF
First off I am not a prepper except for guns and ammo, with that said.. Also, I am bored with talking about the George Zimmerman Trial
What if The Shit Hit The Fan Banks were closed and money becomes worthless. Stores were looted and the shelves were empty. Electric,Water and Sewer services gone.. Gas rationed heavily, roads probably not fit for movement.. What happens next? How do people react? Whats the best course of action.. What would you do? What happens when people start getting hungry? |
90% of the population would be done for if the infrastructure fell...

Everyone should keep at least a months worth of water & food. Past that IMO its anybody guess as to what you will need to survive.
|
Nothing you can really do, accept death cause it wouldn't be to far away.
|
We need parameters.
How long is the electricity out? |
instant mash potatoes
powdered milk rice beans anything canned seeds ammo guns Are all your friends |

I think withing 2 weeks gangs would form going from house to house pilfering and looting... If you are not in the gang, you get shot or shot at |
Get the **** out of the city, when TSHTF.

read the walking dead. take notes. this is your scenario.
minus the zombies, of course. |

Edit: already out of the city, so not an issue with that. |
As long as we didn't get hit by nuclear fallout, people like me and Beuhler will be fine.
We have an abundance of food and water. The city folk that would try to come and take wouldn't stand a chance. |

it would get ugly pretty quick
read somewhere that food etc is on such a quick turnaround now that grocery stores and everything else would be empty in a week. If the tap water stops running it will get violent fast ... people are twisted. |

That would of course mean their homes would be "left to the wolves" but would think that would be the way to go in that situation. |

Hell, bomb shelters aren't safe if someone discovers it.

Where my place is situated? Good luck with that.
Edit: was in response to R8ers post in #29 |

especially in big cities where there is nothing but infrastructure and urban areas what will they do when the water stops and the grocery stores are empty? if there isn't any timeline for recovery it would be full mob mentality in 2 weeks |

That guy you can't stand because he never mows his damn lawn, that guy might just turn out to be your bff WTSHTF. Blacks, whites, latinos, I think lots of peeps will come together to protect their interests against the bad guys who just want to loot, pillage, rape, steal and cause chaos. |
But will people still be able to text? That's all that matters.

If this happened I wouldn't have to spend $60 to play DayZ.

On the bright side, most of them will be the ones that don't last 48 hours (let alone a week) and then if/when things start to normalize we'll have some of the sewage out of the gene pool.

I have no doubt the smaller communities can survive. I think the citizens of these smaller communities will come together and form a collective. It's the spill off from the big cities that will pose the greatest danger. |

If texting still works I'll just ask R8ers what I should do. Oh, and to share some of his secret family SPAM recipes.

lol at people thinking they would survive this situation. There would be huge groups of people, basically small armies that would band together for survival. That would be the only possible way to survive something like this. Old Dog, you might survive a month or more in your house, but all it would take is for one of these groups to surround your house and wait you out if they so chose to do that. It would be huge fenced, protected communities that would survive not people in their houses.

Just because some guy shoots an arrow into a wood pile soaked with gas does not mean he will be able to light a house on fire with one shot. At most his arrow will hit a roof or the ground and someone will walk over and put it out. Mean while, he's gonna get shot with a semi auto high powered rifle if he tries it again. |
Everyone should have a kill list.

Don't mistake me in this thread, I'm in no way, shape, or form a "Doomsday prepper", but with enough shelf stable food laid in for a month (already have more than that) and enough fuel to run a generator to pump water for that amount of time (don't currently have that or normally keep it on hand, but probably have enough for a couple of weeks at least) and enough weapons and ammo to likely take care of me and mine I think most could reasonably expect to be OK for some time.
The key, IMO would be to not be located (as have been mentioned) anywhere near a city of any real size. |
All Raider fans kill each other in a bloodletting orgy?
