    That is how I'm looking at it. I saw far too many on doomsday preppers with a narrow mindset about what may happen down the road. If their ideal disaster strikes, they may be ok. If something else happens, many if not most of them are screwed. You need to have a plan to dig in where you live, evac to a different place, whether locally or regionally. Food, water, fuel, and medicine are the big things, along with a means of communications. You'll also want a means to defend what you have, as well as aquire what you need. May sound harsh, but there are plenty of sheep out there, who may decide to try and be wolves when/if something bad happens. If you know what to do, they will remain sheep to the real wolves.

    Am I the only one whose SHTF/World End plan is to go and take what I need from those that are dumb?
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    I'm not worried one bit. FEMA will be on the ground soon enough with food and water.
    I will get a trailer and all the free stuff I need!
    I ain't spending MY money on stuff others will provide me and my family.

    This page is definitely the best! I'm also slowly trying to cover ever scenario I can think of in order of which I think will come first... However that seems to change daily with different news that comes out... Hmmm us is pissed off at Russia right now... We live in Colorado... What's that dropping out of the sky? Name that movie... Look at my avatar for a hint... Haha ok probably not likely but I really am trying to be prepared for everything... A little at a time because everything takes money! The deals are out there I just take my time before I panic buy anymore crap!

    My wife thought I was being silky when i started preparing for a zombie apocalypse until I started pointing them out everywhere we went... Well she still doesn't agree with it, but you get the point!

    Ok, so that I don't kill the thread...
    I prepare the MOST for a personal threat presented against myself or family, while out and about... That's why I carry concealed to begin with. I spend several X more time shooting my carry gun, drawing from concealment, shooting on the move, in 2-4 shot bursts, reflexive/point shooting, etc. than I do pretty much anything else related to prepping.

    The way I see it, even in every day life, without a true SHTF scenario occurring, having the skill developed to draw and shoot from retention, move while extending and continue shooting, is a fundamental thing that is helpful now and will invaluable in an TEOTWAWKI situation.

    That and any skill that I can brush up on or even learn a new skill. They can take away guns/ammo/prepsm, but they cannot take knowledge.
