Watching the two Civil War movies, Gettysburg and Gods and Generals, the thought again crossed my mind that the next shooting war here at home will be very different from that last one. Besides the huge number of semi'automatic weapons now owned by most Americans, there is a new addition to the mix. The news (said wuth sarcasm) is not reporting the huge numbers of camoflaged and armed young men pouring over unsecured portions of the Arizona border. They are believed to be cartel members. Wirh all the unwanted aliens already here in the millions, we are in for hell on earth. The ranchers cannot defend their properties from the invaders and are moving away, choosing to luve rather than be either killed by the mobs or arrested by their own government. How do we defend our country when we cannot be allowed to defend our borders? The border state governors have to make a choice of their own soon. Let us hope they choose to srand and fight, DC or no DC.

shelves will empty quickly
they violence starts
in 1860, the divide was geographic
and people could fend for themselves much more than today
food shipments will stop
the power grid will fail (be attacked)
and people do not know how to take care of themselves
it will make 1860-1865 look like a picnic
same goes for an EMP attack (which will be worse) or an economic collapse
i keep telling the people i know to have at least 3 months of food/water before November
I agree with mhubb that the big cities will devour themselves quickly, there will be no useless eaters to fight. Any that makes their way to me will be improvised and decimated. The big cities only have 4 days of food after the shipments stop. If you can, get the hell out now.
Prepare now, move any wealth out of the banks, buy supplies and make alliances with likeminded people.
jack1776 you are so right. I live in a suburb 39 minutes from downtown Cleveland. If I can survive the mass exodus for a few days, I have a chance. Several like-minded folks live within a stone's throw, nearly as prepared as I am. We may be small in number, but we are gray, low profile and blending into the background. We are also armed and aware of what's coming, willing to protect and defend our own. I pray it won't come to that, but I know that something horrendous is on the horizon.
