WHEN THE EBT CARDS STOP WORKING « The Burning Platform

Those riots weren't contained to four city blocks in south LA, they spread up and down the west coast from San Diego in the south to Portland, OR in the north.



The rioters were basically malcontents looking for any excuse to cause mayhem.



Your best protection, have at least 2-3 weeks of provisions, and a means to defend ones self and loved ones against random acts of violence. 2-3 months of provisions, including a supply of water would be even better, depending on how severe the unrest becomes. If you can survive the initial civil unrest, your chances of survival go up considerably.



If 2-3 months go by, and thugs are still controlling the local centers, one will have to make the decision, fight or flight. Flight carries it's own risk, and raises the risk of ending up in a relocation camp.



Local communities that band together to provide for common security needs will be best off, but there still needs to be a means of food production, and as a society, we're so far removed from local food production, it's a real concern. Not all of us are as level headed as HF, and I question the ability of local farms to provide for even a modest community, which also shows my ignorance in this area. I can tell you from my experience growing up hunting and fishing, it's a good thing our survival didn't depend on eating what we caught.



At the end of the day, one can put their faith in God,



“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble."



(Matthew 6:34 ESV)
