[QUOTE="Samstwitch, post: 53275, member: 2770"] It will depend on where people live. If they live in the forest, country or some kind of rural area, they will have a chance to survive. If the SHTF then the gov't won't have the resources to police the entire USA. The gov't will focus more on big cities. I'm moving to an area on the outskirts of Ft. Worth, Texas. The area there is mostly undeveloped country. However, there's a small tract of new homes where my son is living. As soon as I'm settled, we're going to start a Neighborhood Watch for our tract. During the course of it, I will get them all into Prepping. My plan is to turn the homeowners into a small community that will work together when hard times come. I've done this before, so it can be done. That's one of my biggest and most important plans for Prepping. I advise others to do the same. After I get resettled in Texas, I will make a Blog with instructions on how to start and organize a Neighborhood Watch. [SIZE=5][COLOR=#ffcc00][B]Some tips for starting Neighborhood Watch Group:[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] [COLOR=#ffcc00]1) Never meet at anyone's [I]home[/I], because you don't know who will show up for the meetings, meaning drug users, criminals, etc. Always have meetings at a neutral place, such as a Community Center, church, etc. (Many churches have a large room for entertaining.)[/COLOR] [COLOR=#ffcc00]2) Choose a time and day when everyone can attend, i.e., NOT on Monday night football, NOT Wednesdays for church goers, NOT weekends, etc. (I held our meetings every 1st Tuesday at 7 p.m. at the local Eagle's Club.)[/COLOR] [COLOR=#ffcc00]3) Pass out FLYERS on colorful paper, going door-to-door, a day or two before the meeting.
