Quoted:
i will be they're fucking english teacher so as to prevent sentence like before and maybe show spell 
OP, I'm reminded of one of the first encounters in Fallout 3 outside the vault, where you sneak into a ruined grocery store. "Yo dawg, I heard you like to raid grocery stores, so I put some raiders in your grocery store so you can raid raiding raiders while raiding the raided grocery store." |

I will be at the bus stop for the first ride to the superdome. FEMA says they will save me and you. You don't need guns or any extra food. Only terrorists stock pile and only criminals rob.
You should get your self a bus station map and find the route to yours too so you can be saved. I sold all my guns to pay for a greyhound club membership! We get t-shirts and a FEMA survival manual : #1. get to the bus station!! #2. FEMA is here to help you. Works for me!

Walking along with your buddy in the middle of nowhere when all of a sudden you step from a densely wooded area into a neatly kept clearing
"interdasting" you say to yourself as you scan the area, what's that? A house about a thousand yards off in the middle of the clearing? Hmm, the treeline on all sides has been pushed back with anywhere from 800 to 1000 yards of cleared area Then you take a step into the clearing and your buddies face turns into pink mist followed by the report of a precision rifle carefully concealed in the distance "Oh shi.." You never heard the second shot. I'll be that first guy that gets pink misted

Just go to the FEMA station and go on in. Like pigs to the slaughter a good, helpful and cooperative citizen (AKA: a Sucker).

I am a firm believer in bugging in.............................too many people with the "head for the hills" mentality. Too few resources for the population and too damn cold in "them there hills". Re-establishment of society is vital, and if communities stand together, they can provide better security in groups, with roving patrols, and occasional scout patrols if necessary. Thus having the ability to arm your neighbors, is not a bad idea, after all Mosin Nagants are cheap, and so is the ammo. Living in a small town, I do not have to worry about looting, or foreign military takeover, as it would take considerable time to secure major cities, before venturing into the small towns. That said, I also live in an agricultural area, so cattle, swine, chickens, and limited crops are available in my immediate area. Having two small children (one of which is special needs) also brings a sense of reality to the mix. Otherwise, everyone would be going "camping" for an extended trip. The real test of survival is not in "bugging out" but rather in "bugging in" and being a leader, in order to save more lives than just your own. Someone has to pick up the pieces. Because of complete changes in lifestyle, many stories exist where the warriors had to remain hidden, until the day they were called upon to fight once again.............The Ronin.........The Three Musketeers......or others, pretty much pick your period in time, and the culture and stories will be present of this occurring. It is up to you to insure a happy ending for all.

All of the FEMA comments strike a little too close sometimes....................I was one of the first on the ground after the hurricanes, and as such sent out on patrol to deter looters and secure certain sites, etc. I was told to prepare for 3 days, but was left for about 2 months before I was relieved of my duties (Although the conditions improved in time). After 4 days of being left on the streets, my team and I went into a FEMA location and asked if they could spare any bottled water, or any un-contaminated water for our camelbacks. We were politely informed that we were there voluntarily, and that water was only for the victims who were stuck. We looked at each-other like "WTF?" , especially considering we had been deputized by the parish, and had both volunteered for post-hurricane duties. We hiked back to our command post, where we were allowed to have water and MREs. We also welcomed having a dry place to sleep, especially with no mosquitoes. We never bothered another FEMA employee, although we were given some MREs from an Army Master Sergeant who was on a Duece, that was headed through town.
Beaumont, TX was also a similar situation after the hurricane hit it shortly after New Orleans was hit. A lot less looting, but similar FEMA management practices none-the-less. -PC- |

One guy wants to know why you didn't just take the water. I said "Probably because they didn't want a gunfight with other police and military people who were looking to shoot someone." |
